SHOT DOWN BY THE GUARDS.
All SANS CAREER IS SUDDENLY
CUT SHORT.
While Trying to Escape From Fol-
som Prison He Was Filled
Full of Lead.

All Sam, the Chinese knife-wielder, is
no more, having been killed yesterday
at Folsom Prison A few days ago
ne was convicted in the Superior Court
OF assault with a deadly weapon and
was taken to Folsom to serve term Oh
imprisonment.
Ah Sam was a wild, vicious fellow,
and was feared by his countrymen'
who called him heap bad man on
account of his savage disposition. he
chased man through l street one
night some weeks ago in an attempt TO
kill him, and shortly afterward at
tempted to. cut Louis Caffaro.
When Officer George Naghel was
called in to arrest him, he made
break for the officer with the knife in
his hand. Naghel covered him with
his pistol. and was about to press the
trigger when the Chinaman threw
down his knife, barely in time to save
his life.
Since his arrival at the Folsom Pris
on he has been suriy and obstinate, and
yesterday when put to work on the
rock crushing machine, he refused to
work and finally made a break for lib
erty. running for the river. The alarm
was given and the guards from four
posts began shooting at him, the near
est being fully 200 yards away.
Five shots in all were fired, and the
guards proved to be crack shots, for
two of the bullets struck him, one
passing through his body and the other
through his leg.
1t is just as we'll that this creature
has been put out of the way, for 9TH
erwise he would almost certainly have
killed some other convict. Just be-
fore he made the assault on Louis Caf-
faro he tried to kill man at Third and
/ streets, because the latter happened
TO look at him as he passed. He asked
the mana stranger here-what he
wanted, and on receiving short an
swer he drew long knife and made
dash for him.
His intended victim escaped, but in
the pursuit of him, the Chinaman
brought up in the rear of Caffaro's place
at Second and II streets and was try
ing to reach him with his knife and
would probably have killed him had not
Officer Naghel appeared on the scene in
time to divert the fellows attention.
The probability is that All Sam was
not really responsible for his acts,
though the prison was a more suitable
place for him than an asylum. How
ever, he is all right now and will not
again run amuck.

later in the evening by his daughter,

A Mortifying Reason.

Deacon Melcher was in his hundredth
year, and very proud Of having lived
so long. Indeed, it was said in the
family that he was exceedingly prone to
cheat on the subject of age, not only
from forgetfulness, but from an inno-
cent desire to make the most of good
thing. Some days, when his head was
tired, he was likely to declare himself
a hundred and four; but that was not
often. Uusually, though with some re-
gretfulness, he would pin himself down
to his meager century.
There was one point on which he was
exceedingly sensitive. though he never
failed to meet the question in open field,
with all soldiers heroism. 1t was IA
tally liable to be touched upon when
strangers came to see him, and they
came often.
You've got all your faculties tool"
some one Of them would exclaim to
the patient centenarian. That's more
than anybody could expect at your
age"
..I've got good deal to be thankful
for" the Deacon would reply, with quiet
dignity.
Hear most as we'll as ever?"
Just as We'll.
Eyes pretty good?"
'1've got my second sight, I'm thank
full to sav."
And you've voted for every Presi-
dent since your Goth year?"
This was stumbling block to an in
nocent pride.
Every time but one," the Deacon was
wont to reply humbly.
when was that?"
Twas this ver7 year.
you STAYED away from the polls in
your hundredth yeari Well, / must say!
What made YOU do that 2"
The Deacon spoke patiently, and YET
with the suppressed irritation of one
baited too far:
II had the whooping cough. and they
wouldn't let be go out!"-Youth's Com
panion.

BLOODY TRAGEDY AT new YORK.
JOHN MATTHEWS MURDERS
HIS WIFE AND CHILDREN.
Completes His Terrible Work by
Committing Suicide, Shooting
Himself in the Head.

NEW YORK, Jan. 17.-John Mat
thews, a retail grocer, some tins be-
tween last Saturday night and this
morning murdered his wife and their
two children, boy 10 years old and a
12-year-old girl. by hacking them to
death with a hatchet- Matthews then
committed suicide by shooting himself
in the head Before dying, it is be-
lieved he turned on the gas with the in
teption that asphyxiation should com
plete his murderous work.
The crime was committed in a small
bedroom in the rear of the store kept
by Matthews. The tragedy was dis
covered by milkman. On the floor of
the sleeping room the officer who was
summoned found the corpse of Mat
thews In his hand was a revolver,
and there was a bullet hole just above
his mouth.
There were two beds in the room.
On one of these lay Matthews wife.
Her head was chopped and mangled al
most beyond recognition. On the 9TH
er bed the two children lay side by
side. Their faces, too. Were frightful
ly cut and hacked.
That the murder and suicide were
premeditated was evident. Matthews
had waited until his wife and children
were asleep. Then he stripped him.
self to the waist, took the hatchet in
his hands and Drained his wife After
that he attacked his children.
From letters left it was ascertained
that for some time Matthews had in
tended TO end his own life. He had
been in the dry goods business further
up town, and had failed A few months
ago he opened the grocery store, and
had met with little success. His wife,
a pretty little woman, had recently un-
dergone a severe operation. 1t was
these things. evidently, that prompted
Matthews to write this letter, which
was found open and unaddressed:
1T is terrible thing / have to do to
keep my word. I promised that all
shall go with me, and delay is no good
If ] could only have died alone-I love
my wife and little children I told them
T did not want to go In any business;
that my mind was gone. and I guess
that my nerve is all that's left. For
five years we have talked the thing
over. / always wanted to go out in
boat and accidentally capsize. I knew
that otherwise I would have a hard
time of it,
From a letter left by Mrs. Matthews
to a friend, it was gathered that she
was a party to the suicide agreement
Mrs. Matthews left instructions as to
the clothes in which the cad children
should be buried, and signified the
place OF interment for the entire FAM

Spickett's Comedy Company opened
for a weeks engagement at popular
prices at the Metropolitan Theater last
night to a fair house. The company
has with it its own orchestra and very
capable and tuneful brass band, which

the well-known old farce. Turned

The company is clever without being
superior: it is adapted excellently to
the work it takes in hand, and is not
mediocre. In short, it is a troupe OF
earnest, practiced people, who give com
edy and melodrama with effectiveness,
and have the varied capabilities which
must dominate in a well-balanced road

is rough -and-tumble low comedy, and

practiced actor. Mr.. Boggs makes a
good old man, and evidently has had
much experience on the stage. Fay
Courtenay is a handsome, spirited and
very clever soubrette, who sings pleas
antly in a soft, sweet contralto and
with charming naivette. Robert JEFF
ferson is leading young man, and we
should class him as capable of far bet
ter work than that cut out for him
last night. Indeed it is represented that

the audience in a merry humor last

laugh among the auditors. In the course
of the farce Mr.. Spickett, Miss Courte-
nay, Mr.. de Camp, Boyle and Lewis and
others gave singing specialties in char
acter parts, and with much success.
Tonight in "a Kentucky Hero" the
company will be at especially good ad-
