THREE FEDERAL PRISONERS.
"A Mexican, an Indian and and Ameri.
can Arrive.

Eugene Gonzales, the Mexican who
was found guilty in the United States
court Wednesday morning was SEN
fenced Saturday to life Imprisonment
in the penitentiary. He was brought
over to Laramie today by United States
Marshal Hadsal together with two
other prisoners. Gonzales, before be-
ing sentenced, asked if he could appeal
his case to the supreme court Of the
| United States. He was informed that
The would have to do this through coun-
sci.
A history of the case, briefly told. is
as follows: Gonzales, who is a young
Mexican about 25 years old, went to the
home OF William Hereford, a squaw
man, on the Shoshone reservation on
The night of Oct. II, 1897. and asked
Hereford if his daughter could go to
a n%eighboring dance. Hereford refus-
ed. Gonzales became angry and a fight
ensued. Two shots were fired, n by
Hereford, which passed through the
lungs Of Gonzales. inflicting what was
| thought to be a fatal wound. The
second shot was fred by 'Gonzales and
killedMarook johnson, an aged Indian
woman and the mother of Mrs. Here
ford. Gonzales escape from death was
a narrow one and his case Is n OF few
where a man shot through the lungs
RECEIVERS.
He certainly has a wonderful con
stitution. At the time, or rather Just
before he fired the shot which killed
the woman, he was shot through the
cest by old man Hereford, tie ball, a So
70, from a rife, leaving a large exit
hole in the mans back. He did not
even fall from the shot, but staggered
off and in a few weeks was apparently
as we'll as ever. This is the c shot
of the same kind from which ne has re
covered.
Another prisoner. a young Shoshon@
Indian buck, Ta-boit-se, who killed a
squaw called "Sleep"-she is probably
now in the happy hunting grounds
vindicatlng her name and Ta-boit-se
will remain at Laramie ten years OIL
less.
John Gilbert was the third number Of
this incongruous party. Judge Rinel
decided that one year would suffice tt
punish him for taking some stamps ant
change from the ~postofice at Gillette

Laramie does not propose to be out
done by Denver in the burglary line
IL it can be helped and is making a hard
effort to keep a hot pace. The thief
does not rob any special line Of bust
ness. but just quietly goes in and k
any cash that may be handy and then
probably laughs in his sleeve at the
people on his trail.
Some one who was acquainted with
the situation went into the rooms of
J. r. Jones on the second floor Of The
Republican building and got away
with $27. 20 in cold cash. Mr.. tones was
engaged in wiring the Frazee building
yesterday and the robbery occurred
during his absence from home. Mrs.
Jones was in the building at the time,
being asleep on a lounge in the front
room and did not hear anyone come in
or go out during that time. The family
dog, a rather savage-looking beast,
was supposed to be around, but he
made no sound. The front door was
open down stairs and one of the doors
leading from the rooms of Mr.. Jones
into the hall is also thought to have
been unlocked.
Mrs. Jones happened to know the ex-
act amount of money because she took
the money out Of her husbands clothes
about II o'clock in the morning and
put it away. The thief took no jewelry
or other articles of value and thus nc
trace was left. Inquiry among people
living across the street and nearby fail
ed to give any information, as no one
was seen t o enter or leave the premises
but ever such a thing would not be
noticed because OF the fact that these
ROOMS have been used by the county
library and as law offices and many
persons used to go in and out.
This is not the first robbery that has
occurred during the past few months
and maybe it's lot the last, so 1t might
