stricken with the disease. Police OH.
GERS will act as health inspectors and
extraordinary efforts will be made to

Thirty new cases were reported to

it is probable many others are lying

disease from which they are suffering.
Of the thirty cases discovered only a
few were removed to the hospital. The
place Is crowded to suftocation, more
than half of the patients being COM
PEELED to lie on the floor.
A large force of carpenters and labor.

covered the dead body of S. r. Ran
dolph, farmer, as related to the
coroner's jury. Randolph slept in a
cabin about ten yards distant from a
house occupied by Stolsworth and fami-
~. When the latter entered the ca bin
he found Randolph lying in bed with
the top of his head beaten in with the
butt end of an Ak. The alarm was
given to neighbor, who came to Belle
vue for the coroner and the sheriff.
The jury at the coroner's inquest re-
turned verdict that the deceased met
his death by the hands of persons un-
known.
The cabin presented most horrible
sight. The bed. floor and walls were
literally covered with the brains and
blood. The body was lying in the bed,
covered in the natural position. The
assassin must have dealt the flrst blow
while the victim was asleep, cansing in
slant death. +ls

Endicott Burglars C0nfeas and are Reld
ON Two Charges.
CoLrAx, April sO.-The two men who
robbed the Endicott pcstof'ce, drug
store and saloon Wednesday night,
were captured at Colfax. A large guam
tity of the booty was in their posse s.
sion. Both are tough characters and
give their names as John Pierce and
Thomas TRIGGER.
This morning word was sent to the
United States Deputy Marshal at Spo-
kane, it being thought that that the
United States will take hand to pros.
ecute the robbers of the mail.
At the examination of the Eudicott
burglars this afternoon Thomas Treeier
admitted his guilt, and said the two
parties who assisted him had not been
seen by him since leaving Endicott, and
that Pierce was not implicated in the
burglary. Tregier left San Francisco
with one of Coxey's armies six weeks
ago, but left the ranks at Sacramento.
He said he had been without money for
many days, was half starved and des-
perate and was the tool of Others in
breaking into the drug store and saloon
at Endicott. He said bad liquor led him
on. He met Pierce In a box car and
gave him the goods to sell, representing
himself as peddler. Tregier says he
gave a gold watch to a brakeman to pay
for the ride to Colfax on Yesterday morn
ing's freight train. Each man was held
on two charges of burglary. The brake
man who accepted the watch is describ-
ed by Tregier a. chunky fellow, with
a light mustache.

End Of Two Bad Men.

VIRGINIA CITY, April 1.-two or three
weeks ago an item appeared, in dis
patch from Spokane, chronicling the
fatal shooting of John w. johnson dur.
ing fracas there, but, as the name was
incorrectly stated, it was not given
more than passing comment here.
Yesterday, however, Thomas Duncan,
clerk of the district court, received a
letter from Attorney w. T. Stoll of
Spokane, requesting certified copy
of two judgments rendered in the dis
trict court for Madison county, in which
the slain man was sentenced to two and
one.half years in the territorial prison.
The killing has caused an intense feel
ing of relief among several members of
this community, quite a number of
whom stood in wholesome dread of the
return of the victim and his brother to
Madison county. The records are
wanted mainly to corroborate the al.
legation of the defense that johnson
was bad man with trigger, and one
who would pull gun and shoot on the
slightest provocatiou His true name
was John H. Johnson, and he came
from Missouri 10 Alder Gulch with his
parents in 1868, his father, Hamilton j.

upon very emphatic intimation from
several citizens that 1t would be
conducive to their health and longevity
