STAGE DRIVER
WOUNDS BANDIT
Worsts Lone Highway
man in Duel With
RevOlvers.
Attempt to Rob the Chico
West Branch Coach Is
Frustrated.

CHICO. Nov. 14-Plucky T. W. Finch
ley, the driver Of stage on the west
Branch line, emerged victorious frem
battle with a lone highwayman at 1:3O
o'clock this afternoon and prevented the
robbery Of his coach The outlaw was
wounded in the arm by a bullet from the
drivers revolver and saved himself by
fight. He is now in hiding in Chico Can
yon, and tomorrow a score of men will
be roaming that wild region In search or
him.
Finchley was driving up the grade be-
tween Berdans and West Branch. AT a
point about twenty miles from this city,
and when near the top of the hill, high
wayman with a barley sack over his head
and sacks wrapped about his feet stepped
from behind a tree. Pointing a revolver
at the driver, he demanded that whatever
yaluables were on board be thrown out
to him. Finchley made a move for his
revolver, and while he was in the act OF
drawing his weapon the robber fired at
him. but missed. Finchley by this time
had his revolver out and returned the fire.
After sharp exchange of shots the rob-
Der started on a run down Chico Canyon
toward the f1ume. Finchley continued fir
ing, and at the last shot the robber
dropped his revolver. which he had held
feet the highwayman retraced his steps
to where he had dropped the weapon, and
picking it up in his left hand continued
his retreat toward the bottom of the can
yon Evidently the robbers right arm
was disabled by the drivers shot. Finch
ley fired six shots and the robber five.
None of the bullets hit the driver.
Thomas Fleck and John Willis, both
experienced mountaineers, started imme-
diately on the trail of the robber. Chico
Canyon in which the highwayman is in
hiding, Is an extremely rough country
filed with ravines and underbrush, and it
will be a difficult matter to track the
bandit Late this evening several county
officers left for the scene of the robbery
and will take up the chase at daylight to-
morrow.

Miss Dora Brown Be
comes a Hopeless
Maniac.

Her Family Dethrones
Reason.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SANTA ROSA, Nov. 14-Constant
brooding over the crime of her sister.
Mrs. Cordelia Botkin, who by sending
poisoned candy through the mails muir
dered Mrs. John p. Dunning and Mrs. j.
D. Deane, daughters of former Congress
man Pennington, has dethroned the rea-
son of Miss Dora Brown, and the unfor-
tunate young woman IS now a hopeless
maniac.
Miss Brown imagines that her sister is
destined to eternal damnatiOn and that
through love she must brave fiery tor
mentS. She attempted to hurl herself into
the furnace Of a railway locomotive yes
terday evening. When the evening train
stopped at the station in Healdsburg the
engineer left his cab for moment ami
upon his return found Miss Brown an Oc-
her into leaving the engine the furnace
door was thrown open. This was what
the young woman wanted, and If 1t had
not been for the quick action of the en-
gineer she would have leaped in upon the
burning Goals.
Miss Brown is about 45 years old. Her
home is in Ferndale, Humboldt County,
but she has been staying with relatives
in HealdSburg. The disgrace brought upon
the family by her sisters crime has been
felt very keenly by Miss Brown, and her
mind has finally given way under the
strain. She will be confined in some in
stitution as soon as the necessary for
malities can be gone through with.
Miss Browns parents are both dead
They passed out of this world unconscious
of the crime with which their daughter
Mrs Botkin, was charged. Jealous mem
bers of the Seventh Day Adventist faith
they were people of very simple lives, and
their children shielded them in their old
age from all knowledge of the disgrace
that had come upon the family.

upon the stomach that it accomplishes
SO much good
Vinol contains the active curative
principles that are found in cod liver
oil. without any oil or grease.
These medicinal elements act so
favorably upon the stomach, that this
organ obtains for itself the elements
necessary for creating new flesh, muscle
tissue and for making rich red blood.
When the stomach acts easily and
naturally, a desire is created for good
simple food and a good appetite is the
sure result.
With cod-liver Oil as formerly taken
the medicinal elements which * con-
tanned were too often unable to
counterfeit the harm that was done by
the obnoxious grease that enveloped
them.
Now that in Vinol we have those
same elements separated from the vile.

action.
