mourn their loss much, but they were not
as bad as the fellow who killed them by a
good deal.
He got of and came East. All he brought
here with him was the nickname by which he
was afterwards known" California Jake"
He was as ugly a man outside as he was on the
inside-that was ugly enough. Five feet ten
and a half inches in height, with black,
frizzly hair. and terribly cross .eyed-that
was California Jake. So it is clear he
wouldn't take q prize at a beauty show.
Jake didn't travel on his shape or his
looks. 1t was brains and luck, and of the
two he had more luck than brains. He
escaped hanging for his California murders,
and got off pretty easily for some funny bust
ness here in New York.

1t Ia for the interest Of all the people, poor
and rich alike, to preserve Broadway for

with her after she had turned out of sight
round a corner. She made 30 many of
these turns that I became certain she was
trying to escape If any one was following her
steps.
After turning up a new street she walked a
little more than a block and then turned sud-
denly back and retraced her steps, keeping
her eyes on the lookout for both sides of the
street. This was q new scheme, and it made
me feel thai she probably had seen me at that
first look back.
AS soon as she turned I shot behind a large
sign which concealed me pretty we'll, and as
l saw her drawing near stepped in behind a
door, which l left three-quarters open.
l waited q few moments, long enough to
let her get by, and then cautiously slipped
out. i saw her ahead half a square and could
tell from the movements of her head that she
was still on the lookout.
Our positions were reversed, however, now,
and was following Belle once more. She
soon turned and went down a side street. l

sERGT. LYNCH TELLS A STORY.
His Narrow Escape While Arrestins the
Notorious Margaret Walsh.

Notorious Margaret Walsh.
In the Prince street police station stands a
large glass case containing q miscellaneous
assortment of knives, pistols, burglars tools
and other implements of crime, which have
been taken from various prisoners during
Capt. McDonald's term as commander of the
precinct. To each one of the weapons is at
tached a small tag, giving the circumstances
connected with its use.
Prominent among the deadly implements
is a small penknife which was used by Mar
garet Walsh. alias Fannie Wright, n noto-
rious street-walker, in numbering Policeman
Machesney on the night of Oct. 10, 1867. The
murder was ommitte on the corner of
Canal and Mercer streets, while the police
man was trying to arrest the woman.
She was sentenced to imprisonment for
life, but was pardoned after serving seven
years. Sergt. Lynch, while talking with the
reporter about the case, told the following
story
Some years subsequent to the murder of
Policeman Machesney l was a patrolman in
the Fourteenth Precinct. My night post lay
along the Bowery. One night while patrol
ling my beat my attention was attracted to n
drunken woman who was very boisterous.
l took her to the station house.
q returning to my post l was accosted
by q strange man, who asked me if / was the
officer who a few minutes before arrested a
drunken woman. l answered in the affirma-
tive. Well he said. do you know who
she tsp / said that | did not. Well said
he. that woman is Mag Walsh, who killed
Officer Machesney. l frequent the dive she
does, and | know her character. / saw her
last night pull a revolver on a man with
whom she had n dispute. / nave heard her
time and time again boast that she would
send the first officer who should arrest her
into kingdom come. Hearing that you had
arrested her, and fearing trouble, l con-
cluded to come and inform you of the fore
going facts. You will find the revolver in
her bosom, where she generally carries it,
II thanked the stranger for his informa-
tion," continued the Sergeant, "and re-
turned to the station house. | told the Ser
geant at the desk what | had heard, and he
instructed me to go to the woman's cell and
search her. l went dow to the cell and said:
Come out, Mag, l want to give you Il
warmcr CELL
Not divining my intention, she obeyed
me. | suddenly grabbed her, and pulled a
3S-calibre English bulldog revolver from her
bosom.
well, you should nave seen the hateful
look that she gave me. and then screeched :
If | had known that that was what you were
after you never would have entered this cell
alive
- believe she would have attempted to
use that pistol on me when taking her to
court the following morning.

KNOCKED OUT.

Now that q man has been killed in @ slug
ging match, it is possible that the authorities
will do something to prevent these unlawful
and british encounters.
For q year past numerous mills" have
been arranged and istio fights INDUCED in
in clear violation of the law, and nothing has
been done about 1t. An indictment or two
or q police raid that meant business would
have put a stop to this sport"
Now that "Swipes" has killed DEMPSEY,
