A THIRD ROBBER
The Identity OF the Robber Who Escaped is
known

MARYSVILLE, March 3o.-The train
robber who escaped is known as Johnson,
and has been fully identified as the
brother of S. Mcclure, the one killed and
now in the morgue.
That there was third robber is quite
certain from the movements of the rob-
bers. The third man had passed himself
off as G. Williams, which name very
likely is assumed. He had been around
town for some time and met the Mcclure
brothers under cover of darkness.
The doctor autopsy shows that Bogard
could not have been hit save from the
rear, and it can safely be assumed that
he didn't turn his back to admit of its
being made target.

TREASURE TROVE
Sheriff Bogard Was Looking for the Cached
Coin of Bandits

SACRAMENTO, CAL, March 20.-Sheriff
Bogard came to Sacramento several days
ago to trace the authorship of letter ad-
dressed to murderer Fredericks, now await
ing sentence of death in the penitentiary
Bogard got possession of the letter and
found that it advised Fredericks to make
his escape at all hazards, and that he
would find in place located on map
enclosed in the letter, lot of money
buried. This money was evidently the
proceeds of some train robbery, probably
that in Yolo county several months ago.
Sheriff Bogard consulted with the railroad
and express detectives mere. and was on
his way to the spot where the money was
said to be buried when he met his death.

A DETECTIVES THEORY
The Robbers the Same lien Who Held Up
Trains at Arcade

SACRAMENTO, March 80 Detective
Thacker has telegraphed Superintendent
J. B. Wright that he is positive these
are the same men who held up trains near
Arcade in this county and Lodi a few
weeks ago. The officers are fully conf
dent they will capture the escaped robbers,
who came from San Francisco on bicy-
cles. A passenger who arrived from
Marysville this morning told a Bee re-
porter that the officers who have been in
vestgating the affair feel positive that the
robbers were experienced bicycle riders.
1t is thought they boarded the train at
Wheatland and had their wheels hidden
in the brush near that place SO they could
make their escape.

Letter of a Minister Written from Astoria
10 His Home.


The following taken from Baltimore
Md, exchange, written TO tnat paper py
n prominent minister now visiting In AS
torla, will be Of general interest:
Our former pastor, Rev. q. d. Huntley,
LII. d.. whose health has prevented his
taking active work since he left us is at
Astoria. Oregon. He writes from there,
under date or November 7th, to friend
In First Church, from which letter the
following is an abstract:
Astoria, Or, Nov. Z, 1885,
My Dear Bro. Stevens:-
From the ends Of the earth l greet
you; from city named after John Jacob
Astor, which is literally walled in by
forests that are unsurpassed upon the
globe A city whose feet are bathed in
the glorious Columbia, whose waters have
but twelve more miles to run before
rushing into the arms OF the great Pa
cific. This river, over one thousand miles
in length, is for the last one hundred
miles not only the most picturesque, but
the most wealth producing river In the
world.
Astoria has a barbor better than that
of the Golden Gate'-with twenty-nine
feet of water at the lowest tide, while
New York has but twenty-six, and New
Orleans but twenty-five. 1.-THE largest sh p
that sails the seas can steer right In, and
lie alongside of any dock or warehouse
on the clty's six miles Of deep water
frontage It's greatest industry Is salmon
fishing, the spring catch of the Columbia
river being the best in the world AS to
healthfulness, this place has ~ the es-
sentials of a first-class Sanitaiium. Its
atmosphere has the tempered coolness,
which naturally results from its nearness
to the ocean. 1t is freighted with the
fragrance of the deep, salined to epicu-
rean taste, and always unimpured by ex-
halations suggestive of the fetid swamp
or malarial morass. 1t is aromatized by
the fir tree and the pine, and is embal-
samed by the subtlest chemistries Of the
Pacific skies.
"Wel, what of It? Why, my dear
friend this is the Paradise to which your
Huntley has been spirited. Here is where
we, not editorial but personal, my wife
and I, are resting during the early win
ter Having been driving ahead for two
years and six months without vacat on,
during which time have been out of my
pulpit but three Sabbaths on account Of
sickness, we thought it would be proper
to tabernacle here a little while, to thank
the Lord for health restored, and gird
our loins for another fifteen years of holy
service"

Worse, and more of it! His daughter sly

The deep carnation spreading over the
good lady's face didn't mend matters q
bit, and with a gasp he plunged in once
more:
'Ahem! Which of the dam fish do you
prefer, anyway"
