ROSCOE TRAIN ROBBERS
Partial Description Of Two of the
Highwaymen.

Partial Description OF Two of the
Highwaymen.
The following description of two of the
men who robbed the express car on the
train coming from Los Angeles at an
early hour yesterday morning has been
received by Division Superintendent
Wright from Superintendent Fillmore OF
the Southern Pacific Company:
while it is believed there were five
men concerned in the affair, the express
messenger makes statement to the ef-
feet that there were but two, one of them
5 feet and the other feet q inches in
hight; both of light complexion, blue
eyes. They had team and blackboard
wagon. There was dead-head fireman
on engine going to Fernando, who helped
to carry coin sacks from the car to within
seventy-hve feet of the blackboard. The
door of the express car was blown open
with dynamite, and the door plate cast
ing, bottom rail, two door stiles, fan wing
on one door and nine panes of glass in
the bulkhead inside the door were
broken.o
In addition to the standing reward Of
fered by Wells, Fargo IL Co. of $500 in
such cases, also the State reward of $500,
Wells, Fargo u Co., jointly with the
Southern Pacific Company, offer an ad-
ditional reward of 81, 900 for the arrest
and conviction of each and every one OF
the parties connected with the above de-
scribed robbery.

guns, but they soon will have them, and
will begin on the manual of arms with
bayonet exercise preparatory to their
competitive drill with the boy cadets,
who have been drilling for two years.
Notwithstanding this, bets are even. Cap
tain Thomas says of his girl soldiers:
AT first it was hard work for them,
but when they caught the idea they pro-
gressed rapidly. They learn much
quicker than the boys, partly because,
think. they take more interest in it.
Then they are more graceful than the
boys, and march with swing that is
more free, and easy; more like the march
ing of regulars. They work hard at the
drilling, and the exercise does them
good"
The company is steadily gaining in
numbers and popularity. Everybody in
Bloomfield is interested in the organiza-
ton, particularly the Toy cadets, who are
realizing the necessity of brushing up
their own drill bit. The effect upon the
girls is plainly to be seen, and when you
meet in the vicinity of Bloomfield maid
who carries herself erect. walks with a
free, wholesome swing, and stops with
heels together, head up, and shoulders
we'll back, you may know her for mem
ber of the Bloomfield Brigade of Beauty.

BURIED A BLOODY SHIRT.
How Congressman Harris, an Ex-Con
federate, Checkmated Opposition.

| How Congressman Harris. an Ex-Con@
federate, Checkmated Opposition.
One of the most polished men, as well
as one of the wealthIest in the House, is
| Populist. Representative Harris, Con-
gresham at large from Kansas, was
elected by the third party by majority
greater than that polled by any Democrat
who ran in the State during the Presi-
Dental election. He is not heard of as
fire-eater in the House, says the Wash
ington Post, but those who know him re-
gard him as one of the strongest men,
Intellectually, pin the Populist party,
man of fine attainments and highbred
courtesy. He owns large stock farm
in Kansas, and is anything but socialist
in the ordinary acceptation OF the term.
During the campaign he presided over
a ceremony that may be set down as one
OF the most novel election devices ever
| introduced in Kansas, whore election de-
vices are certainly in vogue. The opposi-
| ton was making much tO-dO because
Harris had served in the Confederate
army during the war. All over the State
he was confronted with the story Of his
rebellion against the stars and stripes,
which was dinned into the peoples ears
| from every stump and every platform.
! When his Confederate record had been
! exploited TO the limit of endurance Harris
announced that he would go to Fort
Riley on a certain day and bury the
bloody shirt. Fifteen thousand people
turned out to see the ceremony.
| Harris and his friends had everything
arranged beforehand. A grave was dug
in a conspicuous place, beside which a
new white shirt, spotted with red to re-
present blood, was tluttering in the breeze
from pole. Then he addressed the peo-
pie in an eloquent speech. When he came
! to the point of his address that offered
the right opportunity for the introduction
of the dramatic scene which he had pre-
pared he told his hearer that he would
proceed to bury the bloody shirt that had
| been waited on every stray breeze since
he had opened his campaign. Two men
stepped forward, one of whom was recog-
nized as wellknown Union soldier and
the other as eX-Contederate. They
| hauled down the huttering shirt, and
amid the enthusiastic cheers of the crowd
solemnly consigned the ensanguined
garment to the grave. The incident cre-
ated so much talk all over the State that
it contributed not little to the result of
the election, and certainly check mated
the opposition i'll its attempt to make
| capital out of Harris Confederate record.

"HoId Un Yonr Hands,, >,

An ironical but timely application of a
phrase away from it's customary signif-
canoe is the command "hold up your
hands," directed by the city police to
tramps who attempt to abide in FL Paso,
Texas. This town of agreeable winter
temperature, lying as it does on the
southern railroad route from California,
was becoming overrun, as other Texas
towns have been, by the rufianly mendi-
cants that for months have been throng-
ing eastward. The evil abated when the
rule was put in force. Now whenever a
tramp applies for relief he is compelled
to hold up his hands. If the palms do
not furnish evidence that he is genuine
workingman he is promptly set TO clean
ing the streets. AS the methods for en-
forcing ordinances in Ell Paso emphasize
promptitude with plenty of force and
fireworks, it is not strange that tramps
hold aloof from that city and bestow their
unwelcome visitations on other places.

The Mhipping Post.

The whipping post and the pillory in
Delaware are practically one piece of ma
chinery. The post bears at rather more
than the hight of tall man small plat
form and above that two arms, each pro-
vided with three holes, one for the neck
and the other two for the arms of the cui-
prit. The man to be whipped stands at
the foot of the post with his hands secured
to it above his head. Sentences for some
crimes in Delaware name, beside imprs-
onment, the penalty of receiving so many
lashes on the bare back, well laid" on,
and the requirement to stand thereafter
so many hours in the pillory. The SEN
tence of the piIlory is no longer specially
effective as terror to evil-doers, in the
northern county at least, because the cul-
prit is invisible behind high wall,
where no gaping crowds can deny him
the boon of solitude

morrow evening will be the last appear
ance of the capable and versatile artist,
Miss Annie Mifflin, who has for five
months past won so greatly upon the
favor of the Sacramento theater-going
public.
The Metropolitan Theater was filled by
people last evening, to see Patti Rosa in
her farce comedy, Dixie" The play is
a nondescript with neither Ineligible
plot, body, head or structure. But it

1t gives Patti Rosa full opportunity to
prove how versatile a soubrette and spec
ialty actress she is, one of the hveliest,
most mischievous and entertaining sing

women on the stage. 1t gave Joe Caw
thorne. also, a free field for his more
than clever Dutch specialties. The ap-
plause was generous all the evening, and
the laughter almost continuous.

promising her a very successful career.
Miss Selkirk is the daughter of w. a.

Placerville and of Auburn and now of
Petaluma, and well-known in journal
