Paul Lawson Sentenced to Hang for
the Murder of a Houston
Man.

UKIAH, CAL, June 10. - The west
bound stage, running between this city
and coast towns, was held up by high
wayman at 3 O'Clock this afternoon. The
scene of the robbery was deep canyon on
Robinson Creek, about seven miles south
east of this place.
The stage left here this afternoon at 1:30
with William Russell as driver. 1t was pro-
ceeding slowly when masked man
emerged from the brush at Woodside and
commanded the driver to halt. He prompt
ly obeyed. The treasure box was thrown
out and then Russell was ordered to pro-
ceed.
An Indian brought the news to this
city, and Sheriff Johnson started immedi-
ately in pursuit of the highwayman.
There is known to have been at least $1,000
in Wells-Fargo's box, as that amount was
to-day drawn from the treasury by Super
visor Flanagan, who was to use it for the
purpose of paying off road contractors in
his district.
This is the second time withing the past
two years that Driver Russell has been
held up, and the first time for months
when treasure of any amount has been
shipped by stage to the coast. There were
five passengers aboard at the time of the
robbery

KILLED IN ozETTE INDIAN.

q Shooting.

Shooting.
SEATTLE, WASH, June 15.-An affray
at Ozette yesterday between white man
named Anderson and several Indians
headed by a red named Brown resulted in
the killing Of the latter.
Anderson had accompanied Brown on a
sealing trip and the row was started when
they were dividing the catch. On the
Indian refusing to make fair division the
white man took hold of one of the seals.
An old Indian drew an ugly looking knife
and rushed at Anderson and klootch-
man seized him. The white man, with
his Winchester, forced the warrior to sit
down, and by quick blow in the face
felled squaw to the ground. Taking
up the pelts he started for the door, when
the three once more pounced upon him,
Brown grasping the rife barrel. Ander-
son shot, the bullet going through Browns
left lung and killing him.
The Indians are much excited. Ozette
is near Neah Bay in Clallam County. An
derson was brought here for trial before
the United States Court, the offense hav-
ing been committed on reserve.

~ ANITA CRUZ, CAL, June 15.-
Queen Anita abdicated last night,
Nand to-day everything went"
AQHigh jinks has been in full swing
since early morning, and with
every hour getting higher, until tonight
there is a complete abandon. Every body
is out under the cover of masks and domi-
noes. The caste of society is obliterated
and merriment and good fellowship reigns.
The high and low blow the gewgog to-
gether.
In the middle of the forenoon an i'm
promptu parade of eccentricities gave the
first impulse TO the revel, and from that
time forward the most extraordinary
things took place in this ordinarily sedate
city. In the broad sunlight men and
women danced through the streets in
dominoes and hoods of all colors, wearing
hideous costumes and masks, invaded the
offices, stores and private residences of the
business men and citizens, bombarded the
people with not only flowers, but -four in
packages, and otherwise took all the
liberties that belong TO a carnival.
Press headquarters, on Pacific avenue,
was the especial object and victim of this
sort of invasion, and DIR. Doyle, who is
master of ceremonies there, began early in
the day TO assume very correct repre-
sentation of that old story of the "editor
being in" He wore no mask, and was
therefore easily singled out by the
maskers, and when a few of them had
gotten through with him he needed no
mask. This, of course, was all in the best
of humor.
AS the shadows began to gather, how
ever, the speed OF the revel increased by
the minute; the tin-horn merchant and
he of the demons whistle did a rapid
business. Adjoining the Carnival head
quarters is place for the sale and letting
of disguises of every character, and the
place was besieged all day.
The plan of the days entertainment en-
braced bicycle parade and bicycle races
morning and afternoon, the inspection by
the public of the warship Olympia in the
harbor, a race between the regulars and
the militiamen from the pier to the ship
and some mild events on the lagoon for
the free entertainment of the school chill
dren.
Then in the evening was the closing
demonstration on the lagoon, the most
brilliant of all, except that another and
mock queen took the place for this one
night of the beautiful Anita. Then came
the great mask ball-the last jest of this
five days of spectacular iesting, this that
will not have done until the sun is up and
the masked revelers have worn themselves
out. All these were mere features of the
day and night. The whole city is joining
In the revel, and the streets are running
wild with noises of every description.

CROWNED BY MASKERS.
Pirate Queen Rice and His Noisy Fol-
lowers Take a Hand in the Closing
Scenes on the Lagoon

SANTA CRUZ, CAL, June 15.-At 8
O'Clock tonight the great stretch of
tribunes along the water were packed with
people, every seat being taken and every
point of vantage about the big amphithe-
ater being occupied. The banks on the
opposite side of the lagoon were lined, as
well as the neighboring low hills, the
humanity there being revealed upon each
occasion of more than usually brilliant
bomb breaking in their neighborhood.
The red fire and rockets were yet going
as the lights in the floats were lit and the
magnificent spectacle of the past two even
ings sprang into being again with a still
increasing charm. with only the Queen
and her royal following lacking.
Very many of the barges had been re-
habilitated, enlarged and otherwise beau
titled, especially that of Capitola, the
prize winner the float of which had been
extended into an immense gondola. The
Queens throne and the approach to it was
the only land space within sight that was
still unoccupled.
Roncovieri stepped to the front, bowed,
turned to his men and their last concert
on the river was begun. The programme
began with creation of the leaders own,
OeQlCdJeu lO 1TS. y. IuIlp SulID, line
Santa Cruz Carnival" grand march.
Next followed an odd mixture of the
beautiful and the burlesque, with the Ian
tern-lighted barges drifting over the water,
the electric lights sparkling overhead, the
deep glow OF red fire in the woods opposite
and up and down the river, the white
CLEAN of the waterfall up by further bridge,
the fountain throwing its spray in the air
out of the smooth surface of the lagoon,
with rockets dropping their spray OF stars
from the sky, and the sweet voice of the
songstress in one of those beautiful cano-
pied barges singing "Norenne."
"Norenne" was interrupted by the dis
cordant crash of brass band trying to
play two tunes at once somewhere down
toward the lower bridge. Everybody is
startled and annoyed. Nobody knows
whether it is an attempt to make music or
destroy it.
1t came nearer and the discord was so
pronounced that the guess was general
that some hornblowers were trying to
annoy Roncovieri. Roncovieri stood ready
to start into the third number of his pro-
gramme, but the noise would spoil it ALL
He waited until his patience was exhausted
and then he swung his baton to his men to
answer in like manner, and the big band
broke into a scream of discord. By this

up at 5 o'clock in the morning for coffee
and to put their hunks in order. AT $50
o'clock they had to "turn to" and scrub
the deck
AT 7:15 O'Clock they were piped to break
fast,. after which they prepared for and
passed inspection of men and quarters.
From that time until $50 they were EN-
ployed shining the brass work. Then they
were called to report again to rollcall
after which they were put through fire
drill-that is, upon given signal they
went through all the motions incident to
fire alarm, closing every port and air-tight
door in the ship, hauling out the fire ap-
paratus and getting up all the excitement
possible. This was kept up until noon and
until dinner was ready. After noon the
crowds from the shore became so large
that further work was impossible.
Among the visitors in the afternoon was
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-06-16

General Warfield of San Francisco and
staff. During the afternoon a twelve-oar
boat race took place between the regulars
and the reserves from the end of the pier
out to and around the ship to the gang
way, a course of little more than mile.
The word to go was given by Ensign Diffen-
back of the Olympia. The regulars caught
a long stroke, went ahead at the start and
increased the lead steadily but not rapidly
until the last, when they were about half
the ships length ahead.
Nobody seems to know just at what hour
the ship win sail for San Francisco, but it
will probably be about noon. The men
who have shore leave are required to be on
board at 7 in the morning, which means
she will not sail until some hours later.
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-06-16

ship Olympia to-day was..a large side at
traction for the visitors to Santa Cruz.
All the afternoon boatmen were kept busy
conveying the people to and from the big
white ship. The regular men-of-warsmen
have been granted shore leave all day. and
the militia boys have had charge. The
crowds of people have been SO great that
they had no chance to do any work during
the afternoon but simply stood about and
looked as much like old tars as possible
while they stood guard and kept the gang
ways clear. The officer of the day was
Lieutenant Dorm of the navy.
Nearly all the reserves were kept on duty
all day. During the morning the boys were
put through fire drill and the regular
course OF ships duties. These called them
