Why Rod Anrers n nuII.

Tho reason why anything of a red
color cxcitcs and infuriatcs animals Of
the OK family is because rcd is the COM
Elementary color of green, and the
eyes of cattle being long fixed upon
the green hcrbagc when feeding, when
they cspy anything red it imprcsscs
their sight with greatly increased
intensity. No doubt the same effect Is
produced upon all grazing animals by
being suddenly confronted with tho
color red, but oxen and bulls, being
more pugnncious, show greater excite
mcnt, and will even attack that which
surp,i scs them.

George W. Bowers, a mining prospec-
tor, well known in Colorado and Cali
fornia, is in the city. Mr.. Bowers has
just returned from near Mojavs, where
he has been for come months, and
where he is led to beievs he has struck
one of the richest beds OF gold-bearing
quartz discovered in recent years.
MIR. Bowers has been prospecting in
the vicinity for long time. The loca.
ton of his find is near the line OF the
Southern Pacific railroad and not q
great way north of Lancaster, lying
right ct the base OF Soledad peak.
Some ore sent to DR.. W. w. Buer, at
the Pueblo smelter. from this place
showed five ounces of gold to the ton
and also carried from SIS to sSS worth Of
silver. Mr.. Bowern has put in two
shafts on the location and has found a
7-foot vein of this Bounce ore at depth
OF 80 feet.
During his last stay of ten months at
the place Mr.. Bowere has discovered
much more high ore aud fine quartz out
cropping near his location and believes
there is district there which is full OF
rich gold rock which has somehow been
overlooked by prospectors. He. is now
interesting come local capitalists in his
find and will shortly make eome extern

SENSATIONAL EVIDENCE
INTRODUCED BY THE DEFENSE
IN THE PATTERSON CASE,
A Mass of Testimony Tsnding to Prov
an Alibi-Jsmss Coivin Described
by Witnesses.

The Patterson murder case took up
the entire time of Judge Smith and q
jury yesterday and presented some de.
cidedly sensational features.
The defense introduced q mass OF tes-
timony tending to prove the physical
existence OF the mysterious and missing
James Colvin, who, they claim is the
man who shot at Engineer Martin, and
for which crime the defendant Patter-
son ia now being tried.
The defense produced hackman who
gave his name as Jesse Avice who ewore
positively and Enthusiastically that on
the day prior to the alledged shooting
he had driven a man who exactly an
swered the description of the man Col
vim from this city to the Hotel Green in
Pasadena. That the man left him
standing in front of the hotel for nearly
an hour and when he returned he had a
shotgun with him. He then drove him
back to the st. Charles hotel in this
city and received for his fare $500.
A searching cross- examination by
Deputy District Attorney Davis failed in
bringing out any material contradictions.
Avise accounted for every minute of the
time consumed on the trip and fur
nished an exact word likeness of the
man who had been seen by Prindleville
and Smith, as testified to by them on
Tuesday.
John Oomstock and HIS wife testified
to the fact Of having seen a man with
gun run up the railroad track shortly
after the shot was fired, and gave
realistic description OF the missing
Oolvin.
Comstook had q camp in the river
bottom short distance from the spot
whore the shot was fred from and tssti-
fed to hearing it distinctly. He is the
same man VITO was suspected of COM
piicity in the Roscoe train robbery and
was under arrest for the crime.
To further prove the existence OF Jas.
Colvin. W. H. Clune and Phillip STAN
wood, officers in the A. R. U ;, recently
sen ntenced to Is months In the county
jail, were placed on the stand and swore
shat Celvin was q memb Der of the A. R.
U. and personally known to them.
When the court adjourned Mrs Pat
terson, wife of the defendant, was on
the witness stand.
1t is expected that the taking OF testi-
nony will be finished today and the
arguments begun.

Refuses to Talk.

George Smith. the old man arrested
on a charge of being implicated in the
Roscoe train robbery. was arraignsd in
Justice Austin's court yesterday, His
preliminary examination was set for to-
morrow at 10 O'Clock in the same court.
Smith, shortly after his arraignment, :,
was transferred from the city Jail to the
county jail by Deputy Constable Beech
er, the arresting off cor. A few moments
later ne was greeted by reporter for
the HERALD.
Il do not care to say anything con-
cerning nv case" said the gray-haired
old man, "but you shall get all the facts.
Yes, | have engaged my attorney"
"Of course. you will assert that you
are Innocent"
81 do not care to say anything more
about the cese; it is not the time TO talk
about it," and the sexegenarian turned
the subject off and spoke of the
weather. He did not seem at all
worried, and experienced great delight
that the rain was coming down in such
torrents. He would gaze through the
bars at the misty downpour as would
a New England farmer op rainy day,
when staying in doors was q necessity
as we'll as luxury.
While Smith is confident that he will
be freed of the serious charge. there are
others who claim there is sufficient evl-
dence TO prove that he was in both rob-
berries. 1t is said that if he is not held
for trial on the charge of assisting in tho
robbery he will be charged with another
ohfense, the evidence in which the Of
1cers are now said to have in their pos-
session.
Both "Kid" Thorn pson and Alva John
son will be subpenaed to testify at
Smiths examination and they are ex-
pocted to give come sensational evidence.
