AN IMPORTANT ARREST.

kid" Thompson Now Safe In the
Yolo jail.
In addition to the two lads, Miller and
Title, whom Railroad Officers Lee and
Gibson arrested for trying to wreck a
train near Dayisville a few days since,
Gibson has also made another important
capture.
A dispatch from Woodland states that
Gibson has also placed in Jail there kid"
Thompson, alias "The Gypsy KIDD
alias Hobo Kid" in connection with
the same crime. The officer saws he had
been looking for the youngster ever
since the railroad train rocking affair on
July 18th.
He it was" says Gibson, "who was
around with Worden and the rest during
the whole of the strike, and Worden
feared him moro than any one else.
Worden asked me on Friday, in conf
Dental manner, if l wanted TO know
where KID Thompson was. l told him
[ would like to know, but told him TO go
upstairs TO the courtroom, as they were
waiting to sentence him, and to tell me
when he came down.
During the time he was upstairs, how
ever, the telephone message came calling
me TO Davisville, and L could not get the
desired information. Imagine my sur
prise when got hold of the boy and lie
told me his name was Kid Thompson.
He is known under half dozen other
aliases, and il ever anyone was wanted.
and wanted badly, it is kid Thompson.
he is a hard customer, but will be of
great value TO us if we can get him on
the forthcoming trial of the rest of the
men implicated in train-wrecking last
summer"
This thing of wrecking trains and MUIR
dering people out of revenge against
railroad company. will, it is hoped, soon
receive check by the punishment of all
the villains who were concerned in the
diabolicaI affair of July 18th in Yolo
County.
The wrecking of train now and then
does not prevent railroad companies from
pursuing their business, but it does bring
misery TO the households of many who
have no interest in the strife between
railroad companies and the vicious classes
with whom the latter have to deal; and
how beings of even common intellect can
find ii in their hearts to resort to such a
crime is past human comprehension.

Recent Decision Which Pound

It has been the custom of Pound
masters in this city to impound dogs
found on the street, even when ac-
companied by the owner, if the animals
were untagged and not held by rope or
chain.
Judge Belcher of San Francisco has de-
cided that Poundmasters have no right
to do this-that an animal in charge of its
owner is exempt from being iinpound ed,
and that TO be in its owners charge need
not have a rope or chain on ii.
In other words, a dog, COW, horse or
goat is not sat large" SO long as it is in

WoE.aI Than Throwing Rice.


The Duke and the Duchess dan
tuni met with a singular adventure
on their wedding day. After the
marriage festivities the bride and
bridegroom drove from Palermo to
Siarra, the dukes property, where
the honeymoon was to be spent. At
the entrance to the village a deputa-
ton of peasants received them and
invited the duke to descend and drink
some wine offered him. While he
was thus engaged he was startled by
from the bride and saw to
his horror that the coachman had
been ousted from his box and his
place taken by a young peasant,
while another had seated himself be-
side the terrified occupant of the car
rage, who called upon her husband
to rescue her as the horses We're
urged to "a gallop and she was driven
rapidly away.
Beside himself at this extraordinary
outrage, the duke attempted to follow
the vehicle, but was held back by
peasants. who explained 1t was only
the custom i'll that part of the coun,
try and his bride could he ransomed
by a cask of wine. Much relieved. he
gave the necessary order and was
then told that it was also the custom
for the captives to join in dance
with the captors. To this the duke
also assented, upon which he was al
lowed to rejoin his wife, and both en-
tered graciously into the spirit of the
proceedings. After the dance they
were released and escorted the re
mainder of the way by the delighted
peasants, but since then the duke has
been a declared enemy of country
customs."-Lady's Pictorial.
