been unknown to them since September
of last year. The posse OF Marshal
Gard were successful because they were
in earnest in their endeavors to run the
bandits down.
Marshea Gard throws some light on
the two captured men and also upon
several other details as well. Il was
generally supposed that Evans was the
gamier man of the two, but according to
Marshal Gard he was not, and he also
played the coward in leaving Sontag

himself, as did the others, most ably,

his recent exploit.
He was seen at his residence yester-

the fight. He also furnished the dia-
gram of the battle-ground and loaned
the photograph of the posse and Sontag
from which to make the accompanying

something be done to run the bandits

John R. Asmus arrived here last
evening on his way home to Portervilie.
He proceeded to a Qunsmith shop and
purchased 32-caliber Smith & Wesson
revolver, and then kept peering around
town until midnight. At that time he
inquired at the Visalia house for Billy
Matthews. Being told he was not in,
Asmus went away. He returned at

street fronting the hotel door. Mat

with one Morentz Loventhal present.
Asmus opened fire on Matthews, hitting
him FIVE times, in his thumb, elbow and
three shots in the left side. When the
shooting opened, Matthews arose from
his chair and advanced to within three
feet of Asmus, where the last four shots
were fred. Matthews is still alive.
The trouble arose several months ago

PECULIAR PROCEEDINGS.

From reliable source the information
was cleaned that the directors of the de-
funct institution did not close the bank.
1t looks strange that neither they nor
the president were responsible for the
suspension, but that the manager should
telegraph from San Francisco and close
the house over their heads, without con-
sulting them. There ia undoubtedly
something wrong somewhere, but at
present it is impossible to find the miss
ing link. A rumor gained currency late
this evening that the president did not
know of the failure until half an hour
after it occurred. Some startling devel-
opments are looked for at an early date.

pitcairn Islanders.

Pitcairn island, where the descen-
dants of the mutineers of the bounty
live in seclusion and primitive content
ment, boasts of being absolutely free
from the vice of drinking. The pro-
hibition laws there touch not only
liquors but tobacco. A shipwrecked
sailor named Coffin, who was cast
ashore there a few months ago, had
managed to save his dearly cherished
pipe and pouch of tobacco. The chief
magistrate of the colony promptly in
formed him that he must give up
smoking If he wanted to enjoy their
hospitality, and when he refused he
was so effectually boycotted that he
fled this ocean paradise by the first
passing ship. Capt. Bailey, of the
American merchantmen Vigilant, from
Japan, brings this story. He stopped
at the island and traded trinkets for
food with the natives, and found them
happy and prosperous, though not a
drop of rain had fallen there for two
years, and the volcano over which
their island lies has been giving
ominous indications of activity.
