walked in. A second later all eyes were upon
him. At glance II was recognized that he was
a mailman.
Gesticulating wildly and swinging the jug
around his head. he poured out string of un-
recognizable words. Then. depositing his jug
on the end Of pew. he brought his gun to the
SHOULDER and pulled the trigger. The first shot
sent thrill Of terror through every worshipper.
No one dared go near the wild-eyed maniac,
who aimed his rifle at windows, pulpit, stoves,
and pews with = recklessness that sent men,
women. and children rushing pell nell out of
doors.
In the mean time Pattison reloaded his
weapon and banged away Unfortunately un-

Olivet Church presents q sorry appearance.
The windows are shattered and the seats and

in wagon for Divide station with his two
prisoners. Two guides accompanied him. Ar
irving At the Divide the Sheriffs party put the
horses In n stable. The prisoners standing In
the stable seized favorable opportunity and
grasped the guns which were leaning against
the wall. One of the prisoners cried:
"Hold up your hands" The other said
give us your keys or we will fix you"
Sterling advanced upon the men and seized
both guns at the same time. This disconnected
the two miners.
One OF the prisoners erasped . revolver from
Sterlins's belt and struck him across the head.
Sterling held fast to one OF the guns and
backed out Of the place. Both Of tho miners

both wounded, and In = few moments Cannon

When the miners on Bull Hill heard Of the Di-
vide attack and death Of Cannon their indigna-
tion grew more violent. The Coroner's jury's
