May SAVE D1RRANT.
A New Witness Discovered
Who duplicates d
Minister.

San Francisco. Cal, May 81
"A very important witness III
the Minnie Williams case was
discovered yesterday. She is
a Mrs. Scbwaifzer. She posi-
lively affirms that on April -,
1895, the day before the body
of Minnie Williams was found
in the Emanuel Baptist Church
she saw the unfortunate girl
with the Rev. George j. Glib
son, on the Alameda ferry
boat, coming to this city. She
says that he Rev. Mr.. Gibson
carried the girls basket and
seemed very solicitions for her
welfare. The Rev. Mr.. Gibscn's
neck is somewhat disfgnred by
old sears and Mrs. SchwaiIZ-r
says she observed such scars
on Miss Williams companion,
and they served to impress the
features of the man upon her
memory.
Although Mrs. Schwailzer is
a resident of this city and for
the past two years has been
aware of the fact that Theodore
Durrant is accused of the muir
der of Minnie Williams, her
reluctance TO have her name
involved In the notorious case,
in any manner, prevented her
from appearing until now.

The RECALL Of 4
TURKISH CAPTAIN
He Had Been an Exile From
the Sulian's Empire for
Twenty-Five Years.

Cdu hutOiiOs 1SA-s M II
After % years of exile il
various foreign lands, Amaija
Zada Huseyn, formerly iils
Captain of a troop in the Sui
tan of Turkeys body guard
has been recalled TO help de
fend the Ottoman empire.
Amaija Zada has been living
in colony OF Turks in this
city for the last eight months
and was paid great Difference
by them in recognition Of his
high birth and past glory. The
pardoning proclamation was re
ceived only day before yester
day, bat was dated April 21
This was shortly after the out
break Of the present eastern
war when the I nrks were being
hard pressed by the Greeks.
The eastern exile is a mem
Der of the house of Koprili,
which has figured prominently
for hundreds of years in Turk
ish history.
In 1872 Amaija Zada was a
Captain in the Sultan's body
guard. He was evidently a
wonderfully daring and intrepid
young soldier, for Que night
there was an awful distur bancs
in one of the very inner compart-
menis OF the seraglio and when
all hour after the Eunuchs had
quit running frenziedly about
and The soldiers had quit fash
ing their sabrrs, hmaija Zada
was being marched under heavy
escort toward the frontier. The
greatest wonder is that he was
not effected in the Bo-pherus,
but there were probably reasons
Of state for preserving his life.
Amaija Zada has been nearly
every where since then, but has
managed never to soil his hands
with work. He is now about
30 years old, aud with bis
suaight black hair, high fore
head and aquiline muse; is de
cidedly handsome.
