Buried Alive While Charmed by N
Snake.

Snake.
From the San Francisco Chronicle.
San Bernardino, Sept. 5.-Frank
Saunders, a Whittier man, stood still
in the face of impending death from
the caving in of a bank, being unable
to move on account of the spell which
huge rattlesnake had thrown around
him, and he is now under the care of
physician at Anaheim, having been
perhaps fatally injured by falling earth.
The accident happened in Santiago
canon, where Saunders and s. T
Adams, also of Whittier, had gone to
inspect an outcropping of coal. AS
they We're uncovering a ledge the earth
above them began to split, and an i'm
mense cave-in was impending. Adams
called to Saunders to leap, and himself
quickly scrambled down the mountain
He supposed Saunders was following
but on looking back saw him gazing
intently at the ever widening creyice
above.
Adams was quick to detect the OBJ
Ject of his companions gaze-a big
rattler-which held its head steadily
directed toward Saunders. The next
moment several tons of earth fell
burying the hypnotized man from sight.
When Saunders was exhumed he was
found to be badly injured. He stated
that he was all the time aware of his
danger, but could not free his gaze
from that Of the snake and was pow
erless to move while the spell lasted
Adams killed the reptile after he had
dug Saunders from under the fallen
earth

This order will be received with
great satisfaction by the 800 petition

Because of the fact that there has
been strong opposition to the road on
the part of the owner of the land to
be crossed, the commissioners have
worked slowly in order to keep fully
within the protection of the law
However, the commissioner from this

would with safety permit, feeling that
a petition so extensively signed should

HORN CONVICTED.
Found Guilty of Murder in the
First Degree.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Oct. 25-At 4 :37
last evening. the jury in the trial of
Tom Horn, for the murder of Willie
Nickel, returned verdict of guilty
of murder in the first degree. There
of the court read the verdict, and the
convicted stock detective never moved
a muscle of his face. Not tremor
of a nerve or muscle was noticeable
when the words were read that must
have brought the pioture of the gal
lows very close to the convicted assas-
sin of an innocent boy. Judge Lacey,
leading attorney for the defense stated
that they would at once take an ap-
peal
On all sides one can hear
nothing but commendatory remarks
upon the verdict, indeed, the jury is
being lionized, SO popular is the YER
dict. As IA matter of fact, Horn was
convicted by public opinion several
days ago, sentiment against him hav-
ing been crystallized by his own testi-
moDy ON the stand, and when the
news spread over the city that he had
been found guilty, great cry of salts
faction went up.
People were surprised, it is true,
for the best that was hoped for at this
time was disagreement. Convic.
tion, in view of the many escapes of
Horn from the clutches of the law,
and the belief that the powerful mon
ey force alleged to be behind him had
hxed'' some member of the jury,
seemed out of the question, although
Horn was believed to be guilty.
Consequently, when the announce
meDt was made that Horns doom has
practically been sealed, there was re
lOicing eyeryw here.
