Mr.. Snow came out of the army in '63,
made new proposition of terms, which
was not accepted, and the committee
applied to Rev. Selden Gilbert to serve
for one year. He remained through two,
however, when Rev. Nathaniel Gunnison
was called. he came to Norway In 80,
was pastor four years, endearing himself
to ali the people. During his stay the
church was raised and hall put under,
named "Concert Hail." which too was

During his administration here there
was builded the parsonage, the meeting
house was repaired, spire added to the
cupola and the windows altered.
Then followed the pastorates of Rev.
L. d. Tabor, from 1859 to 1877, Rev. J.
A. Seitz, from 1877 to 1881, and Rev. W.

In 1898, q large amount OF repairing

THINK THEY HAVE
FOUND THE THIEF
San Francisco Detectives Are Confident
That Buck Taylor" Committed
the Selby Robbery.

San Francisco, Cal, Aug. o.-In the
opinion Of the police the mystery OF the
theft of S2S3O0O from the selbySmeting
works at Vallejo Junction has all but
vanished. They are convinced that
John Winters, or Buck Taylor as he
is sometimes known, who is now in
custody, is the man who planned and
executed one of the most remarkable
crimes of the century. Some Of the de-
tectiyes also expresses the opinion that
Winters had no accomplices In the JOB.
While the evidence against the prison
er is thus far purely circumstantial the
officials consider it overwhelming and
conclusive. The stolen bullion is yet to
be recovered, and this, 1t Is thought
win be found buried near Winters cab
in, not far from the smelling works, OF
sunk in the shallow waters Of the bay
near by Winters, who had been an
employe OF the smelling company was
missed soon after the robbery, and on
the door Of his cabin was found a no.
tce reading; ANY one who enters

cloth was drawn over the window so
that the interior could not be seen.
The detectives watched the cabin all
Tuesday night but Winters did not re-
turn.
on Wednesday morning they broke
into the house. Here they found many
articles tending to connect him with
the crime. They included a small in
candescent lamp and battery, crusted
with mud similar 20 the earth in the
tunnel, shovel, cloth, laths peculiar
tacks and chalk, all these latter things
being similar TO the articles found In
the excavation under the wall Of the
smelling works. No drill was found IN
the cabin, hut there was bolt cutter
In the stove was found the ashes left
by some clothes that had been burned
and a buckle such as Is worn al the
back of a pair OF trousers. Winters
when questioned admitted he had
burned his old trousers because he did
not want them around A grlndstone
found at the cabin had evidently been
used for sharpening the point rather
than the edge OF some instrument, for
it was groyed all around in the middle
of its face. Such a grove might be
made by sharpening n drill Some let

to a young woman residing in San RAJ
