A Drummer's Story.

"'Twas cold stormy morning and the
rain beat against the windows of train
that was fleeing over the steel rails on one
of the Western trunk lines out Of Chicago -
said good-natured drummer to party of
friends in Chicago hotel lobby, "when one
of the boys came into crowded car where
I was sitting. He had his hat in his hand,
and the first man he approached was big,
handsome fellow who sat looking out into
the storm. My friend said the drummer,
there's a sick woman in the other car who
has little baby and girl about ten years
old. She has ticket but no money, and is
going West to meet her husband. The con-
ductor demands fare for her little girl, and
says she will have to get off unless it is
paid. prevailed upon him to let them ride
until l could collect the amount. There S

said: Where's the lady2' Going to the
other car he heard the woman's story. The
drummer handed in his collection, and the
big man, taking a roll of money from his
pocket, donated $50 to the pool, and walked
out of the car before the sick woman could
express her thanks. The man was Alex

Appellant did this and received other lands

charged with the land as an advancemens

THE BANDITS sTEED.
WHAT BECAME OF vASQUEZ'S
CELEBRATED MOUNT.
1t Was Not Killed at San Jose, But is
Still in Possession of the Messer Fam
ily-How vasquez Was Caught.

The Chronicle and Examiner OF a
few days back contained interesting ac-
counts of the accidental killing of Ban
dit Vasquez's white horse by locomo-
tive at San Jose after the animal had
roamed free and untrammeled over the
hills in the neighborhood of that place
for twenty years. The stories printed
by those papers contain a number of
anecdotes concerning Vasquez and his
murderous band, more or less true, but
the story of the killing of the horse is a
barefaced ''fake.'
That celebrated animal is, or was
until recently, in the possession of old
man Messer, who purchased him from
Frank Guirado, a brother OF DIR.
Guirado and brother-in-law of Governor
Downey, soon after Vasquez's capture.
Guirado claimed that the horse
was stolen from him by Vas
quez, and Sheriff Billy Rowland
returned it to its rightful owner. The
animal was not white horse, but an
iron gray, and was of common Caliior-
mia stock of the kind that could be pur-
chased anywhere in those times at $50
or $40 apiece.
When Vasquez was hanged in Sar
Jose in, 1875, Gilbert, the San francisco
Snowman, sent an agent to Los Angeles
to buy the horse of Guirado. The dea
was not effected, however, as the owner
put too high price on the animal.
Soon after Messer obtained possession
of the beast, and has been using him as
a saddle animal ever since on the streets
of this city.

him throw up his hands was Captain
Emil Harris, at that time holding the
position of detective for the city and
county of Los Angeles" Harris, to-
gether with Frank Hartley, Albert
Johnston, Beers, Walter Rogers, Sam
Bryant and H. M. Mitchell, learning
that Vasquez was at "Greek Georges"
house on the La Brea ranch, in the
Cahuenga hills, left this city at mid
night in wagon on May IA, 1874, and
came upon Vasquez unawares. Harris
lead the party and entered the cabin
where the bandit was hiding. Leveling
his winchester, the detective got a shot
at Vasquez as he disappeared through a
window, and hit him in the arm, the
bullet entering the body and running
around under the skin to point on the
breast, where it emerged. Harris fol-
lowed through the window and took aim
for another shot, but Vasquez had
enough and threw up his hands.
OF the capturing party all are dead or
lost track of except Captain Harris, who
is running detective agency ard mer-
chants patrol in this city, and Frank
Hartley, who, when last heard of, was a
guard in the territorial prison at Yuma.
Harris kept the bandits rifle and for
fourteen years used it in hunting and at
target practice. 1t is an ordinary win
