CAPTURE OF A DEMON.
The Black Bart Of Michigan in the Hands
of the Law-The Story Of HIS Capture

MARQuErrE. sept. 2.-IIolzhay. the
Gogebic stage robl,er. was taken south
by the Goeebic sheriff on II train yes
terday. The prisoner was defiant.
and hi. demeanor showed him TO he
ready for any desperate deed. 1t is
expected if he is not very closely
guarded he will make - determined
effort to escape. 4 great crowd con-
gregated mt the depot to see the noted
bandit. Holzhay did not relish their
scrutiny, and remarked to the officer
with him: III had my guns and was
free, they wouldn't be so anxious to
yet close to me- TO the officers who
guarded him Saturday night Holzhay
admitted that he was the man who
went through the Milwaukee Il North
ern train near Ellis Junction last May,
and aftsrward held up the passengers
on "a Wisconsin Central train and
robbed several stage coaches in North
ern Wisconsin, besides commit ting
many minor deprstiations.

robbed last week, was brought here by

lie was determined not 70 he taken
alive, and had he had the slightest
inkling of their purpose when they
Were approaching HIM he would have
shot both down unhesitatin2ly. The
proof against the man, without his
admission to the officers, IS complete,
and unless he escapes from the officers
or succeeds IN sulciding, he L. booked
ior IL life term III state prison. Capl-
tai punishment was abolished IN Mich
igan number oi years ago.
Ilolzhay SAID to an Associated Press
reporter that Immediately after his
attack on the stage last week he made
for the thick woods. lie pushed rap
idly eastward and struck the Duluth,
South shore & Atlantic railway about
fifty miles this side OF Nestoria. There
lac boarded tram and rode to Cham
pion, the northern terminus OF the
Milwaukee, a Northern. Republic lies
ten miles south OF champion, and to
that point Holzhay made his way on
foot. He applied ut the Republic
house for lodging and was assigned
room. II was about SIX O'Clock Fri
day afternoon when he arrived there.
lie ate supper and an hour later was
shown to hls room. The landlord OBJ
