A BRUTAL CHICO HUSBAND
His Divorced Wife Takes a Shot
at Him in Self
Defense.
The Fellow Spends His Time in Get
ting Drunk and Annoying
Her.

CHICO, CAL, Jan. pa telephone dis
patch to-day reports that the town of
Willows, Glenn County, was startled last
evening by hearing three pistol shots in
rapid succession.
On investigation it was learned the shots
were fired by Mrs. Emma Longmire to
protect herself and children from the
assaults of her ex-husband, Lewis Long
mire. From Mrs. Longmire it was learned
that last evening about half-past Long
mire, from whom she was recently di-
vorced, went to her house on the out
skirts of the town, where she lived with
her two children, and demanded admit
tance, and when she refused he threatened
to kill her and the children and attempted
to break down the door of the house.
Being in mortal fear of the man, she
fired the shots to frighten him away.
Persons who went to the house imme-
diately after the shooting, say that Long
mire was standing near the curbing apply
ing the vilest kind of epithets to Mrs.
Longmire and her children. An effort will
be made to have him placed under bonds
to keep the peace.

Their Doctrine an Eye for an
Eye and Tooth for a
Tooth.
WORK OF PORTLAND ROBBERS
They Held an Old Man Up in the Day.
time and Took His Watch
and Money.

PORTLAND, Or, Jan. %. = Horace
Stevens, just from Alaska, says: 1.-The
action of the Killisnoo Indians in sending
a delegation to Governor Sheakley at
Sitka, demanding the immediate execution
of man named Mills, charged with the
murder of one of their tribe, is but a result
of the summary treatment accorded them
by this Government during the witchcraft
troubles some years ago. when Commander
Merrimnn with the United States steam
ship Adams landed force of men and
rounded up the tribe and then treated
them to the sight of their village being
bonn parded and their canoes torn into
splinters with Gatling missiles.
AT the time the lesson was needed one,
the Killisnoos having caused great trouble
and anxiety among the whites by their
lnsistence in continuing the barbarous
rites of their religion, if SO it may be called,
of an eye for an eye and tooth for tooth.
If man fell sick some witch must have
caused his illness, and the medicine man
was just as likely to pick out a white
employe of the Northwest Trading Com
pany as being the sorcerer as to select an
Indian.
OiA VIC OCSdSiOIi u IlS faudIlS guns Ut
ing turned on the village the Killisnoos
had acted in more than usual high
handed manner. A Siwash had been
killed by the premature discharge of a
bomb in the company's whaleboat, for
which the Indians demanded the life of a
white man. There was an epidemic of
typhoid fever among them which, as it at
tackled one after another Of the tribe, they
concluded must come from the whites,
and the salmon were late in running,
which fact they laid to the workings of
the trading company's pile-driyer, claim
ing the shock as the hammer fell was car
ried along the bottom of the channel to
the king salmon, who he warned and
turned the fish into some other bay.
The Gu re for all these troubles, accord
ing to their light, was the securing for
torture and ultimate death of white. A
big medicine potash was held and young
lad working on the company's steamer
was decided to be the witch. Plans for his
capture were at once laid, but through the
talkativeness of a squaw, living with a
white man, for the time being failed, and
suddenly the lad disappeared.

the early part of the week that his aged
mother was lying seriously i'll in New Or
leans, and on Tuesday he left for the
Southern city. To-day a telegram came
saying that Mrs. Marx passed away yester-

NEWS OF SAN IA BARBARA
Jerry Bruggy Convicted of an
Assault to Murder
Yesterday.
The Philadelphia Returned to Port,
but the Monterey Did Not
Materialize.

SANTA BARBARA, CAL, Jan. 23.-
Jerry Bruggy, who has been ON trial on
the charge of attempt to murder preferred
by Judge Thomas Henley of Santa Maria,
was to-day convicted by jury in the Su-
perior Court.
Although number of witnesses came
down from the northern part of the county
to testify in the case, including the old
gentleman who had SO narrow an escape
from death at the hands of tie prisoner,
the trial was rushed through with dis
patch, being given to the jury at sunset
and decided within half an hour.
1t was Bruggy's intention to argue his
own case, but as the time for the trial
approached his forensic couraged weak
ened and ex-District Attorney Putnam
undertook the defense. Perhaps the most
curious feature of the case is that not
withstanding the months in which Bruggy
has lain in the County Jail and the CON
viction of the officers that he is an old
criminal, it has been impossible to ascer-
tain his previous record or to learn any,
thing whatever concerning his life prior to
his coming to this county.

1000 at par value of $50 each; that the
stockholders, chief of whom are J. w.
Broderick and Mrs. Jesrum. sell at $50 per
share. They deposit the stock in the
hands of H. w. Hellman, trustee, and re-
ceive payment of $5 upon each share, the
balance to be paid in thirty months and to
bear interest at per cent.
Then the Main-street and Agricultural
Park Railway Company proceed to issue
$3.50 900 of ten-year per cent bonds, of
which $15o,000 are to be sold and the
money used to electric the railway and
be otherwise expended to its betterment.
The other 100000 of bonds are to be de-
posted with Hellman & Broderick. trus-
tees, and to be delivered as called for by the
syndicate, to be used for the betterment of
the road. Neither the trustees nor the
company are to have anything to do with
the expenditure of this money except to
see that it is spent upon the road.
If at the end of thirty months this SYM
dicate does not pay the remaining $25 per
share and take down the stock from the
hands of Trustee Hellman then the deal is
declared off and all money paid is for
feited. Under this arrangement, there
fore, $4,000 has been paid on the trans
action.
