LAIR OF RANcE-RUSTLERS
Rendezvous of CattIe-Thieves
Found in a Wyoming
Canyon.
A Gang for Whose RaVages Many
Innocent Men Have Lost
Their Lives.

CHEYENNE, WYo., Oct. 13-Advices
received here indicate the existence in the
mountains of Johnson County of habitual
range, rendezvous and headquarters of
range-rustlers. 1t is near the head waters
of Powder River, and is known as the
Hole in the WALL" being deep noun
tain canyon or basin, the approaches to
which are inaccessible to any one not hold
ing the clew to the labyrinth. The range
thieves are said to number forty or fifty,
and are under the most thorough organiza-
ton and effective as well as daring leader
ship.
This discovery is likely to solve the ques-
ton that has served to keep alive the fire
of political dissension in the State for three
years and led to the killing of at least
fifteen men at intervals on the range. The
small farmers have been generally accused
of killing the stock of the range companies,
and the corporations have taken the most
drastic measures to protect themselves
from the ravages of the supposed small
farmers.
Within the last two months three as
sassinations have occurred, and more than
one farmer has been warned to leave the
State, and the warning has been obeyed
promptly. and to neglect of similar notices
are ascribed the deaths of others.

From the Mew York Recorder. ]

But the curse of the drug habit was upon
him and he could not shake it off. About
a year ago his descent became rapid.
From cheap hotels he passed to poorer re-
sorts until he finally came to the cheapest
of cheap lodging-houses in the levee dis
trict.
Ten years ago Nesbett owned plenty Of
good silver and copper mining stocks and
had large interest in at least one big
gam bling-house in each of four cities
Denver, Helena, Butte and Colorado City.
He had married early in life. His wife
died in New York city about three years
ago.
His son, father and mother now live at
Bellevue, Neb., near Omaha. His down
fall was the result of investment in race
horses, which proved losing ventures and
made him morose. In the pocket of his
coat letter from his son in Nebraska
under date of October 6 was found.
Both men and women were found to-
night who declare Nesbett was worth
100000 ten years ago, but more con-
servative persons estimated his wealth at
few hundred thousands. His body is
now in the care of the county, and will be
buried at the expense of the county if his
relatives do not respond to the kilograms
sent them,

BRAIN FOODS.
A DeIusion and a Snare,


II is strange that so many brain workers
and thinkers-people who might be ex-
pected to be not easily imposed upon
throw away their money Oh so-called
''brain foods" and 'brain invigorators''-
as if that most intricate and mysterious or
gan could be fed or affected in such q
direct way.
1t is preposterous
The condition of the brain-its capacity
for work-depends on the general physical
condition = particularly Of the digestion
system, which includes long chain of or
gans and functions.
The sedentary habits of brain workers
deblItate this machinery of nutrition.
Nature needs asSistance-a gentle, healthy
stimulant.
Peruvian Bitrers are far and away above
anything ever offered for this purpose.
Their beneficial effects are simply wonder
ful. Their great efficacy lies in the COM
Charlottesville world-famous Peruvian Bark
with other valuable herbs in fine old Cali
fornia Brandy. Peruvian Bitters are the
greatest of tonics; gently stimulating di-
gestion without creating morbid appetitS
for stimulants; toning up the entire sys-
tenn, quickening all vital functions. driv-
ing out malarial poisons, and producing
such a physical condition that all faculties
are at their best and health is unaffected
by the ordinary irregularities, exposures
and overwork that even the most careful
cannot avoid.

PAULINE HALLS LUCK.
The Local Manager Declined
to Change the Dates of
Her Company.
TODD CLAIMED PROTECTION.
He Told the Police He Feared VIo-
lence at the Hands of
Harrison.

SACRAMENTO, CAL, Oct. 13.-War is
brewing in theatrical circles in this city.
There is a strong probability of suit for
heavy damages being shortly instituted
against ]. II. Todd, T. ]. Clunie and Mrs.
Foye, the former being lessees and the
latter owning the Metropolitan Theater in
this city.
1t is claimed that some time since
Messrs. CIunie and Todd entered into
contract with Mr.. Harrison, manager of
the Pauline Hall Company, in which they
agreed to furnish the building, lights,
scenery and all other necessary accessories
and attend to the billing and advertising
of the company for % per cent of the pro-
ceeds, the theater to be at the disposal of
the company on the 18th and 18th inst.
MIR. Harrison states that he afterward
addressed letter to Mr.. Todd requesting
that the dates be changed to the 18th and
10th, and received reply stating that this
would be done for an additional per cent
of door receipts. Harrison refused to ac-
cede to this demand, and informed Todd
that he would retain original dates, and
also called Mr.. Todds attention to the
free-pass clause in the contract, referring
to an engagement of the Little Tebbet
Company some two years ago, at which
time Harrison claims that $50 free passes
were used on one night.
This he claims in conjunction with his
refusal to accede to the per cent demand
has so angered Todd that he has refused to
bill the company, answer any communi-
cations or afford an interview on the mat
ter to Harrison. As the billing should
have been done last Thursday he has
placed his case in the hands of Congress
man Grove L. Johnson, with instructions
to prepare papers in suit for damages.
He also claims that the conduct of Mr..
Todd has prevented several first-class COM
panies from perfecting contracts here this
winter, and that Sacramento will get the
go-by by them, to the detriment of the
drama loving portion of the community.
Mr.. Todd, who has been out of town for
several days, returned this evening and
Immediately went to the police station and
stated that he feared personal violence at
the hands of Mr.. Harrison and it is
claimed desired protection. The matter is
the talk of the town and great indignation
is expressed in all quarters at the treat
ment accorded the representative of the
Pauline Hall Company by Mr.. Todd. Itis
openly claimed that this is not by any
means the first occurrence of the same ma
ture in which managers of first-class COM
panies have been so treated by the local
theater managers.

FOUGHT At CLOSE RANGE.
Desperate Duel With Pistols
on a Street of New
Orleans.
One Of the PRINCIPALS In the Affray
Killed and the Other Seri-
ously Wounded.

NEW ORLEANS, La, Oct. 13.--A des-
perate fight with pistols took place at the
Poydras Market yesterday between Dennis
Corcoran and Tony Lavia, in which the
latter was killed and Corcoran severely
wounded. Eighteen shots were fired.
Lavia attacked his intended victim from
behind and emptied his revolver, hitting
Corcoran every one of the six times he
fred. Corcoran, with wonderful pluck and
courage, stood his ground, and, though
wounded by the first fire and his right
hand crippled by the second shot, got out
his pistol and returned shot for shot.
After LAVA had emptied his pistol he
ran. Securing another from a friend he
continued the shooting. Corcoran's pistol
was empty, but without sign of fiinching
he stood firmly while Lavia fired at the
human mark until his second pistol was
emptied. Then LAVA wheeled and run
ming a short distance fell dead. He had
been hit in the right breast. Corcoran will
recover.
An old grudge was the cause of the duel.
They had been rival candidates for the
position of commissary of the market,

AN UpRIsING IN Goa.
Portuguese Troops Defeated oy Force
of Rebels.

Portuguese Troops Defeated oy Force
of Rebels.
BOMBAY, INDIA, Oct. ia serious
condition of affairs exists in Goa Territory,
in India, owned by Portugal. Recently a
body of rebels, said to have numbered
1900, stopped detachment of Portuguese
troops commanded by lieutenant who
were going to San Quelin. Sharp fighting
took place, during which many of the
Portuguese soldiers were wounded. The
rebels were in too strong force, however,
for the troops to make a successful resist
ance and the latter were finally obliged to
surrender. Some of the troops were ma
tives and refused to obey the orders of the
lieutenant.
This victory has given prestige to the
rebels, and 1t is thought that many of the
disaffected natives will flock TO their stand
ard. The Governor of Goa is dispatching
guns to Agoada and has arranged for the
defense of Panjim, but the measures that
have been taken are considered to be quite
inadequate to suppress the revolt.
LISBON, PORTUGAL, Oct. 13.-The Gov
ernment is fully alive to the seriousness of
affairs in Goa, and preparations are max
ing to shortly dispatch re-enforcements to
the troops there.

sPAT OUT The BULLET,
Louis Jones Kills an Enemy
After Being Shot in the
Mouth.
A Family Quarrel Which Resulted in
the Woundlng of All the
Participants.

AURORA, NO., Oct. 13.-There was a
quarrel in the Jones family here this after
noon, with the result that Ady Alexan-
der is dead, Tom Jones fatally wounded,
and Louis Jones in serious condition,
an all on account of Jones' daughter
Sarah.
The trouble occurred at o'clock. Alex
ander had become enamored of Sarah, a
married woman, but who had left her
husband and was In love with Alexander.
few weeks ago she left her parents
nome and went to live with her lovers
father and mother, but returned this after
noon In company with Alexander for the
purpose OF getting her clothes. Then there
was stormy time.
After entering the house the woman s
parents refused to let her have the clothes
and endeavored to keep her from depart
ing with Alexander, when the old man
and son followed her into the yard. the
former endeavoring to assist Sarah in max
ing her escape.
This resulted in fight with Jones and
the son, during which Alexander drew a
revolver and shot Tom and his father. the

FRIENDLESS AND ALONE.
Death Comes Soon After He
Had Escaped From a
PoorhOuSe.
FAMED THROUGHOUT THE WEST
He Was Reputed at One Time
To Be Worth a Million
Dollars.

CHICAGO, ILL. Oct. 13.-Sporting men
and gamb blers, both east and west of the
Rocky Mountains, will feel genuine pang
of regret when they learn that Joe Nesbett
is dead, and that he died in want and with
out the most common of comforts.
Joe Nesbett was known among the high
class gambling fraternity from Chicago to
San Francisco and all over the Colorado,
Montana and Idaho sections. Ten years
ago his check was good for 100000 in the
Montana National Bank at Helena with
out Endorsement.
Last Saturday Nesbett ran away from
the poor farm at Dunning, ILL.,, and came
to Chicago for the purpose of beggin g
enough money to buy morphine and
cocaine. He was weak and emaciated
from long sickness and denial of the drugs,
and when he sought bis room at cheap
lodging-house in Clark street he lay down
upon the bed and never awakened. 1t is
supposed he took too much of the drug in
his anxiety for the stimulant.
The story of Joe Nesbett's life would
read almost like a tale from the "Arabiau
Nights or romance of wealth spun by
the pen of Rider Haggard. He was the
king of gamblers in Helena for ten years
preceding 1890, and had portion of his
colossal fortune as late as 1893, at which
time he came to Chicago from Denver in a
special car chartered by party of the best
known and wealthiest faro-bank owners of
Denver and the Northwest.
But he "got up against it." as the gam
blers' saying goes, and was "hat broke"
before the great Worlds Fair was over
Then he dealt bank in Varnell's, Hankin's
and other noted gambling houses.
The San Francisco call., 1895-10-14

Hirst, formerly of the Simpson Methodist
Episcopal Church of San Francisco, to-day
preached his first sermon in Chicago,
Wnere ne has accepted pastorate at Cen
tenary Methodist Episcopal Church on
morgan and Monroe streets. A very large
congregation assembled and extended a
nearly greeting to their new pastor. The
text was Matthew Wis: "For verify
say unto you, until heaven and earth
pass, one lot or one little of this law shall
IN no wise pass from the law till all be
fulfilled"
The preacher eloquently described the
Interchangeable and unassailable position of
Christ's church to-day, which remained
proof alike against the charges of the
centuries and the attacks and discoveries
OF philosophers and scientists. In con-
Guiding he said
Il am here this morning in obedience to
your call and the constituted authority of
the church. The responsibilities Of new
pastorate are tremendous, but if both pas
Tor ana people will realize this fact the re-
suits OF the work of the church may not
be measured. l am not ignorant of the
splendid history of this church reach
ing into the past and of the
noble men who have preceded me;
ana II as great aggressive WORK
be accomplished as in the past I look for
waro TO even more splendid future, and
thls 1or two reasons-I see around me host
OF veterans bearing the scars of many bat
ties, and see, Also an immense reserve
force OF young people with latent powers
ana slumDerlng energies not yet swung
into battle. Knowing the strength of such
a combination, said this morning, There
shall be no Alps before u.s.
"This great city was never in more need
OF churches, and we have a stupendous
task to perform. May God seal our we'd
ding bond and give US power to help and
save.''
The members of the church will hold a
reception for DIR. Hirst next Thursday.
