The lighthouse on Staten Island was the

These three men did not impress the
sailors OF the Crown of Italy with much
respect, and their sudden advent into the
forecastle was looked upon as an omen of
no small import. betokening some mishap
Tor the ship and her crew.
Growls were occasionally heard between
watches. but iu no case were the complaints
directed against the officers. for no ship
ever sailed under command of better
quartet of navgators than Captain
GreeDbank, First Officer Frank Hewson,
Second Officer W. j. Wade and Third
Officer Charles Turner.
The stowaways were put to work before
the mast and the sailors shook their heads
ana said something about "greenhorns
manning English ships"
This was the condition of affairs on
board the Crown of Italy when the vessel
got within 2500 miles of the cape. The

the walls Of plaintiffs buildings will lose

the street will become useless. 1t has

were evidently taken from cars, as the

THE USUAL BATTLE Is FOUGHT.
But the Robbers Escape and the
Officers Horse Is Shot, But
He Is Uninjured.

HANFORD, Jan. 14-This morning man
came into town from about five miles
northeast of this city and reported to the
officers that carriage and two horses, one
of them dead, had been found at midnight
in the road near his place. Constable
Goodrich of this city went back with the
informant and brought the live horse and
buggy into town. The buggy top had
three bullet holes through the back and
the horse that was found dead was shot
through the body.
The news that a fight and possibly a
hold-up had taken place created quite a
sensation. But it was subsequently learned
that William Childers, Fresno constable,
who was driving from Goshen 10 Hanford
Saturday evening, was held up and fired
at while short distance out from Goshen.
Whether the highwayman took posses
sion of the rig and drove it until the horse
gave out, or the team ran on without a
driver, is a matter of speculation. The
full particulars are known only 10 the
officers and they refuse to give out any
information.

some deve lOpments. Street rumor now

two highwaymen. but missed them. His
own overcoat shows two buletholes.
The firing was heard at Goshen, a quarter
Of mile away. and citizens went out. but
found Childers alone. He told his story
and wired to the Sheriff OF Kings County.
Childers says he knows who the men
are, but he does not wish to make any
statement as to who they are or his busi-
