DISAPPEARS FROM
HIS SHAST IA HOME
B. F. Roberts, a Prominent
Citizen, Missing for
a Week.
Leaves Bella Vista for Mont
gomery While a Snowstorm
Is Raging.
Fears That He Perished in the Biz.
zard or Was Drtwn'd or
Murdered.

REDDING, CAL, March IL. - b. +.
Roberts, one of the most prominent citi-
zens of this county, hes been missing from
his home since last Friday. Mr.. Roberts
was formerly assistant Postmaster here
and has occupied numerous public offices.
He resided with his family near Bella
Vista, about eight miles from this city.
Last Friday he left his home for Mont
gomery Creek to organize lodge OF
Patriots of America. A severe stol m was
raging at the time of his departure. He
was last seen on the road near Ben Jen-
kins' farm, on North Cow Creek, some ten
miles from his home.
1t began showing heavily that evening.
and it is supposed that the traveller became
bewildered, and, losing his way, was lost
in the snow and perished, or was drowned
in one OF the swollen streams.
The missing man was expected home
on Sunday, but he did not return.
His family was not particularly alarmed
at first, as they thought he might be de-
tanned from returning by the storm, but
when he failed 10 return by Monday they
began to think that something was wrong.
On Tuesday his son Herbert rode up TO
Montgomery Creek and learned that his
father had not reached that place. Her
bert returned home on Wednesday and
gave the alarm.
Several searching parties were immedi
ately organized to hunt for the missing
man, but no trace OF him has been found.
Mr.. Roberts was for many years one of
the most prominent schooltea chers in this
county. He was assistant postmaster in
this city under the late John N. Ma jor,
and for the past eight years has been en-
gagged in farming on Cow Creek.
He was well-educated man, great
student and writer of conside bic local
prominence. being frequent contributor
to the local press at Redding.
A good many entertain the opinion that
he has been murdered, but no motive can
be attributed for the preparation of such
a crime.

OREGON CITY, Or, March 11.-Peter
Griner and Louis Rogers were arrested near

Neibert, the Candy saoonkeepe per who was
killed last May. The complaint against
the prisoners was made by Milo Lee OF
Candy. Constable McCown made the ar
rest of both men, though he kept them
separate and neither knows of the arrest
of the other. Neither of them made any
inquiry as to the nature OF the charge pre-
ferred.
There is said to be strong chain of cir.

the murder OF Neibert, but the officers are
1t IS understood that the men have pro-
fessed some knowledge of the affair, and
have told conflicting stories when ques-
toned about it. Grlner is a woodcutter
who has been working on the west side OF
the river near Candy. Rogers has small
ranch on Candy prairie, where his family
lives. He has been convicted of offenses
that give him the name of being a hard
man.
Ne bert was calico by two masked men
10 his saloon door after he had locked il
and was closing his esta bills ment for the
night. AS he opened the door the men
fired and fed. Neibert was shot through
the body anu died the next day from the
wound. 1t was q very mysterious affair,
anu suspicion has been directed to various
persons connected with other misdeeds,
but nothing more tangible than suspicion
has developed to connect any body with
the commission of the crime.

The deponent stated that on February

married to John Stout, ballad singer.
In 1871 he again saw her and S etson
at the home in Alden street, Boston,
where they were living together, 10 all ap-
pearances. He never heard Mr.. Stetson

YUMA, ARIz March 11.-People from

A mineral deposit of surprising richness
has been discovered even within the linn

OF the discoverer, B. ]. Cooke OF Los
Angeles, are but half true Yuma will in a
short time be second Virginia City.
Three assays show rock that runs not less
than $400 n ton. some of it reaching as
high as $2500. 1t is not reasonable that
these incredible assays can hold up. but
the opinion of careful mining experts who
have pounded up and horned out pieces OF
the rock are that it will average $50 ton.
The ore can be milled on the spot for IS
cents ton as everything needful is
handy. Excitement here is growing and
people are flocking to this county from ali
