The Dornsife case mas created many e1-
pressonR Of Indignation and some people
nave said that the accused was mighty
lucky in escaping lynchlng. Dornsife's
"luck' lie credit8be to the town, for the
days OF lynching are past in civilized com
munities. There have been many cases Of
lynching in which the victims have been
shown innocent after they have been placed
in their graves. The charges against Dorm
sife are most astounding, but only part Of
the story has been told and when all the
facts are told On the trial perhaps the keen
edge may be taken of. Notwithstanding
the statement Of the prosecution that it has
more evidence in reserve than has been
made public, Dornsife has some friends in
town who have implicit faith in the man
and openly declare that they believe him
innocent. They claim that he is a victim
OF conspiracy and that his prosecution is
simply the following Of attempted black
mail. Whether Dornsife is guilty or not
guilty he has met the terrible charges with
remarkable self-possession. He will talk to
no one but his counsel about the case. A.
one OF his friends said, "he is shrewd
man.

The writer met mem Der Of the Humane
Fire Company OF Pottsville yesterday and
tound him very much worked up over the
report that the company tried to get the
Grant Band from the Columbia Hose
Company tor the parade at Hazlston snd
did not parade because it could not get it.
The gentleman making the denial OF the
report says that if any request for the
Grant Band was made it was not authorized
by the Humane company. That the
marshal ssked the company to parade but
was told that the members would not be in
line because they had no band and that
their engine and carriage would be taken
in the parade by another company. The
failure to parade, the informant emphs-
sized, was not because it could not get the
Grant Band, but because the band it
expected to get in Pottsville would not run
the risk Of having It's uniforms spoiled by
the rain. He made the statement to show
that no illfeeling should exist between the
Columbia and Humane companies.

What the Humane society is Doing for
Their Benefit

What the Humane society is Doing for
Their Benefit.
That the Sacramento Humane Society
has worked a great and good change was
especially noticeable just before Thanks
giving Day. Though thousands of live
fowls were brought to the city and ex-
posed in the markets, no instance Of vio-
lation of the law was brought to the at
tention Of the society. 1t has thirty Off
GERS throughout the city and county, and
the knowledge that they are alert and re-
solved to enforce the law, has resulted in
a complete abandonment of old practices
Fowls are brought to market in coops
of the required size, and no longer tied in
punches and cast into Wagon-bedS or left
to lie upon the market floors or the side
walks, and the wings of live turkeys are
no longer interlocked to cripple their
movements.
Several of the market men are mem
bers OF the society and have been active
in forwarding the good work and in Civ
ing growers of food animals notice of the
requirements Of the humane law and in
enforcing proper observance OF it upon
market employees. One of the leading
market men tells RECORD UN-
ION reporter that while at first there was
some growing on the part of growers,
they now acquIeSce in the new regula-
tions and make not only no complaint of
them, but admit that they are wise and
needful.
There has been also a marked change
in the manner Of transporting calves and
swine TO market and the abandonment of
cruel practices in their handling. So,
too, the members Of the society report
that cruel driving and inhumane treat
ment of horses have nearly ceased, at
least are greatly less frequent. In con-
tributing to this end most of the livery
stable men, being members, have eXer-
cised a most beneticent influence.
No meetings of the society or its direc-
tors have been held for long time, be-
cause there has been no matters to bring
before either body, the presence Of the
society's agents throughout the county
and the activity OF the officers serving to
secure respect for the law generally.
a great many warnings have been
given by these officers, and in no instance
is it known that these have had to be re-
peated. There are over one hundred
members of the society, bat it needs
more members and would gladly enroll
five hundred. Citizens who are in sym
pathy with its ends and who realize the
very great influences such an association
eXerts simply by its existence ought to
give their names for membership to
Secretary LaWton or President Wilson.
and thus encourage and aid noble work.

"YORKEY" MONAGHAN.
How He Came to be Arrested on Sus-
picion OF Garroting.

picion OF Garroting.
1t was stated yesterday morning that
Nelson Anderson, the aged Swede who
was knocked down and robbed by four
or five men on Third street at 3 O'Clock
on Tuesday morning, had identified
"Yorkey' Monaghan as one of his assail-
ants.
1t appears, however, that it was the
other victim of the garroters-thc man
who was assaulted at Second and X
streets, a few minutes later-Who claimed
that y orkey'' assaulted MIN. \ gentle
man who was attracted to the spot by the
mans cries for help informed a RECORD
UNION reporter yesterday that he saw
three men walk away, while Monaghan
was bending over their PROSTATE victim.
VINO was just crawling from the gutter to
the sidewalk, as if assisting him.
AS the three garrOters were crossing X
street toward the Frat building they met
man Fastening in the opposite direction,
toward the one who was calling for help.
AS they passed him on The crOsswalk one
Of the trio dealt him fierce blow in The
stomach with his fist, which doubled the
man up and checked his apparent desire
to interfere i'll the case.
No further arrests have been made but
Monaghan remains in Jail. 1t will be re-
membered that four men We're seen to
leave the scene of the first garroting on
Third street and hasten toward Second,
while but three were seen to leave the
spot where the second victim was as
saulted.
This fact, taken in connection with
Monaghan's being found near the latter.
doubtless caused his arrest.

SUSPICIOUS CHARACTERS.
Two Men Who May Have Been Evans
and SOntag.
~ Young Sacramentan's Unpleasant
Experience in the Country
Couple of Weeks Ago.

George Karcher has just returned from
a several days unsuccessful search for
two men whose actions had aroused his
suspicion. On the day preceding election
day Karcher was driving along the road
leading to Pleasant Grove, distributing
tickets and poll-lists among various Elec-
ton Boards, when he came to an old
cabin the appearance of which showed
that its permanent occupants had long
since abandoned it.
The day was warm, and karcher was
very thirsty. Seeing a pair of horses and
light vehicle hitched by the old cabin,
he drove up 10 it to see if there was any
one in the place from whom he could OBJ
tain a drink.
Two rough-loohlng men came to the
door, and, after eyeing TIE young Sacra-
mentan closely, told him they could give
him drink Of coffee. karcher tied his
horse and entered the cabin. He noticed
that both men continued to eye him
closely, and that both had guns standing
within their reach and pistols strapped
about their waists. He had also noticed
in their buggy small poultry-cIate, III
which was yarety OF canned provisions,
and when he saw that the men were
came suspicious OF them.
one OF them handed karcher a tin cup
filled with coffee, and he was about to
raise it 10 his lips when he turned round
and asked the men if they could tell him
where Lincoln SchoOlhOuse was-that
being one OF the polling places at which
he was to deliver package-but he did
not think it necessary TO explain for what
purpose he was going there.
That settled it. AS karcher turned to-
ward the men one OF the lapels of his
coat was moved 10 one side, partially dis
closing gold star on his breast, one that
was presented to him when he was con-
nected with the Police Department. The
star doubtless caught the eye of one of the
nien, Who Immediately reached for a gun,
and pointing TO the door, told karcher To
get out and make himself scarce.
He was not even allowed to drink the
cup of coffee, but was told to get into his
buggy and travel, and not TO look back if
he didn't want n dose of bucksLot.
karcher did not need q second warning
but got up and got" rs speedily as pos
sible. Some hours later he passed by the
same place again, but the men and buggy
had vanished, although the horses had
evidently been driven long distance al
ready and appeared to be greatly in need
OF rest.
Karcher completed his task of distrib-
uting election tickets and returned to the
city. He related his experience to his
father, and the veteran policeman be-
came impressed with the idea that the
men mIghthaVe been EYanS and SOntag,
tie hunted train-robbers and murderers.
After the election young karcher pro-
cured a team and started off in the hope
o. again overtaking the men, but was un-
able to get on their trail or learn anything
OF them. The supposition is that they
struck out tor the foothills and made their
way into the mountains.
Whoever they may have been, one
thing seems certain, and that is they have
no use for anyone wearing an officers
badge Of authority.
