NEWS FROM OVER THE STATE.

that a hold-up at Frank Caffey's
saloon at Castle Gate where the miners
checks are cashed and the Price stores
was contemplated about pay day The
sheriff investigated and became con-
WINGED that plans were prepared and
the necessary arrangements made, Mr..
Alfred notified all concerned to be in
readiness to give the robbers a warm
reception, but somebody was indiscreet
and the gang got word of the prepara-
tons for their reception and thought
it best to let the job out. 1t was
learned that Butch Cassidy, Joe
Walker and Leigh We're to make the
raid for the money. 1t is a well known
fact that Joe Walker had been in this
vicinity for several days and it is prob
able contemplating the raid and laying
plan, for the escape of the gang. 1t is
also very probable that Cassidy and
Leigh were not many miles from Price
In fact, it is thought they could have
been reached in a few minutes ride
The greatest difficulty encountered
by the officers in their endeavors to get
these willy outlaws is the friends of the
outlaws who keep them posted as to
any move the officers may have
planned It is possible that an example
viii be made of some of the parties
who befriend the outlaws.
Sheriff Alfred has purchased five
modern rifles for use in case he wishes
to at any time hurridly get a posse to-
gether. They are all modern make and
will do effective work at very long
range.

CRAZY HERMIT CAPTURED.
Lorenzo Witch of Goshen Taken Into
Custody.

Provo, March 25.-Sheriff Storrs re-
turned from Goshen this morning,
bringing with him Lorenzo Witch, the
man who has lately been terrorizing
the people of that town. 1t is quite
probable that Witchs mind is unbal-
anced, as he believes that all the lead
ing citizens of Goshen are his enemies,
and that an attempt has been made by
some of them to poison him. Owing
to his violent disposition, Sheriff Storrs
resorted to quite a clever method of
securing his man. He went to Witchs
place without making known his official
character, and offered to buy Witchs
hay. Having thus opened a CONVERSE
ton, he led him up to the trouble with
the people in the neighborhood. and
then Witch detailed to the sheriff all
of his grievances. The sheriff told him
that he would take his case before the
county officers, as he was acquainted
with them, and in this way induced
Witch to put on his clothes and go with
him. After they arrived in town the
sheriff told him that he would take
charge of him and deXterously slipped
the handouts on his wrists
