Cummings Eats Them Raw

The premises of John Cummings, a
farmer at Ell Monte, were searched in the
middle of February by Deputy Sheriff W.
H. Gilbert, who had search warrant for
the operation. Since that time Cummings
has missed no opportunity of annoying
Gilbert. His last threat was that he was
going to eat Gilbert raw, as be had nc
time to cook him. Such an awful pros
os p lime Kind on ali oceas I1 as
was more than Gilbert could stand and
he procured a warrant in Justice Young S
court for Farmer Cummings arrest. Dep
uty Constable De La Monte, who is not

and brought the anthropophagic farmer to

THAT ROSCOE ROBBERY
The Companies Suggest a Way to
Distribute the Reward
An Offer to Deposit the noHey In Court and
Let the Sieuths Fight 1t
Out There

The Roscoe train robbers have caused
much trouble to the judicial departments
of Southern California, what with the
arrest of the malefactors, their examina-
tions and trials, and the demands for re-
wards from their alleged captors. There
are now five or six suits almost ready to be
tried in the Superior Court, in which
each of the plaintiffs claims the persim-
mon. These demands are based upon the
terms of a circular issued by Wells, Fargo
& Co. and the Southern Pacific, dated
February Is, 1894, by which these cor
porations offered altogether $1,000 for the
arrest ad conviction of the train robbers.
After the capture of Alva Johnson and
Kid Thompson, and the conviction for
life of the former, alleged captors showed
up like mushrooms after warm rain,
and the attorneys of the express and rail-
road companies were kept busy entering
demurrers to the complaints of these
sleuths.
The Southern Pacific and Wells, Fargo
& Co. have got tired of being sued so
often, and in order to put stop to such
promiscuous having they have brought
more complaints springing from the
Roscoe train robbery. Yesterday they
filed their complaint in suit in which
Frank Dowler, A. B. Lawson, l.. ID.
Rogers, F. b. Kenneth, Charles Etzler,
John Adams, H. c. Mcdonald, George
McCarty, Thomas Botello, Will Smith,
John Doe. Richard Roe and Daniel Foe
are defendants.
The companies offer to deposit the $1,000
which is the motive of al this fuss, in
the hands of the court, and to let the
detectives whose names are given above
litigate among themselves to see who will
get the balance Of the reward after the
lawyers get through with it. They pray
also that proceedings in the suits already
commenced be stayed until farther order,
and they ask the court to grant an order
enjoining any body who might have a
mind to ask Tor the same reward, and has
not done so yet, from doing it. 1t is for
that last reason that mention is made of
Messrs. Doe, Roe and Foe. These we'll
known cognomens representthe strict incog
names of parties who have not yet made
up their minds that they we're the ones
who arrested Johnson and Thompson.

HOUcK'S MIND GAVE WAY
Too 7ueh Whisky and No Food Hade Him

Too 7ueh Whisky and No Food Hade Him
Insane
A continuous spree OF six or seven
weeks, during which Martin F. Houck
drank all he could get and ate hardly any
thing, brought him before Judge York
yesterday on a charge OF insanity. Among
his Authorizations was one that fifteen
young girls tried to shoot him, and that
chopping off heads in the county Jail is
the ordinary pastime there. He said that
on Wednesday night there we're SO many
peoples heads chopped off in the cell be-
low his that he got tired listening to it.
Houck is native of California 40 years
old, who has been engaged in the lumber
ing business. The loss of his wife may
OF his reason, but his appetite for liquor
undoubtedly unhinged his mind. He was
committed to Highlands.

The Verdict Was for ,ToIfree

Much to Mr.. L. E. Crittenden's surprise
his $12. 500 damage suit against ]. H. Tol.
free of the Mojave eating house vanished
into the thinnest OF air yesterday after
noon when Judge Mckinley instructed
the jury to bring in a verdict for the de-
PENDANT. The jurors, who had been very
much edited in regard to the case while
listening to the testimony, lost no time in
rendering the verdict as directed by the
court, and instead of taking money for a
busted" reputation, Crittenden had to
take walk in accordance with the prayer
in Tolfree's answer
