ELUSIVE JOHN DOE.
A California Constable's Fruitiess
search for the Wrong Man.

The fish commissioners are having a
good laugh over the way Deputy Davis
gave county constable a chase over
half OF Sonoma county. Deputies Davis
and Low were sent to the Russian river
district to see that the law was not vio-
lated, as they heard ii was, by the resi-
dents of that section placing set and
other illegal nets in the river to catch
steelheads. The deputies found some
new set nets in the river-one near Pen
ny's place and Two nearer to the mouth
of the river. They were all new. and in
short time the nets. anchors and ropes
were taken up and sent to Santa Rosa.
Soon after the officials of the com
mission learned that Penny was on the
where he had sworn to several John
Doe" warrants, charging these mythical
persons with petit larceny for stealing
his nets. and got search warrants for
the recovery of his property. The
Guerneville constable started out with
the documents. and Davis. learning Of
this. resolved to have little fun on his
own hook. He managed TO keep just
ahead OF the county officer, and for
three days he gave the constable a
merry chase over nearly the whole Of
the county. Every day or so he would
return to the river to see that there
were no more set nets. and then skip
out to some other place, followed by the
constable. When the fun began to grow
stale Deputy Davis came TO this city and
told the commissioners of the war
rants. In the meantime. Deputy Lowe
was laying low" on the river banks TO
keep watch on the fishers. The com
missioners at once took the matter UP
and notified District Attorney Sewell.
of Sonoma county. that the warrants
were. no doubt. for their men. who are
regular officers. and in taking the nets
did so in the discharge of their duties.
Mr.. Sewell at once instructed the
Guerneville justice of the peace TO dis
miss the complaints. which was done.
and the people of Sonoma county are
having considerable fun with the officer
who had the chase after the fish com

so he started with five kaffirs. They
followed the spoor and came on the

Kaffirs fired without due aim and the
lion sprang on the boy and killed him
with one blow. The prospector then
shot and hit the lion. who came toward
him. the sportsman retreating rapidly

gun was jammed and would not go

lion was on him. The prospector tried

THE ILL.FATED LONDONIAN
Arrival of the Rescued Men i'm Boston,
The Men Who Perished

Boston, December 9.-The surviving
members of the crew of the Londonian,
rescued from the wreck by the steamer
Vedamere, reached this city today
from Baltimore.
Among the lost were two cattlemen,
Coveny and Thos. Doyle, both Of
this city. In addition to these there
was a young stowaway, whose name is
supposed to be Crosse. This young man
was a native of Calcutta and had been
in Boston for about five years, but was
on his way to India by the a of
London.
Second Officer Cuttings, Of the Lon
DOMAIN, in talking Of the disaster to-
day, said that the report from Balti-
more that after the forty-five men had
been taken on board the Vedamere the
steamer was soon lost sight of and it
was supposed that the remainder of
her crew main on board, was err
ror. The second officer states that they
left but one small boat in the London
ian and that boat was seen or the
wreck by the King Arthur when she
sighted her abandoned and carried the
first intelligence of the disaster TO
Liverpool.
Of the ships crew lost were the cap
tain, first and third officer, and nine
teen others.

General Henry,s Activity

San Juan de Porto Rico, December
9.-General Guy V. Henry, military
governor of the department of Porto
Rico, in a series of letters to the coun-
Gil, gives further details of the policy
which the mayors guaranteed to MAIN
tain in the interest of public health
and order.
Genera Henry appeals to Porto
Ricans to smother their political differ
ences and to unite in behalf of their
country.
1t being evident that the civil courts
cannot or will not act with Sufficient
promptness against bandits, firebugs
and murderers-there not yet having
been a single conviction for either of
these o%ffenses. though many have been
committed-an immediate example is
necessary and General Henry has APP
pointed a military commission to try
cases of this character when properly
presented.
His activity in the various directions
is universally commended.
