JURY FREES VANCE
AND Simmons.

After receiving instructions from
Judge Carroll Cook and celebrating
but eighteen minutes, the jury yester-
day acquitted Malcolm T. Vance and
George Simmons of the charge of mur-
der. which grew out of the shooting
of Heber C. Tilden last April. Both
young men were Immediately set at
liberty. E. s. Boynton. the third mem
Der Of the quartet arrested on the
morning of the shooting, was released
by Judge Cook on his own recognizance
until this morning. when his case will
be called.
There were but few people in the
courtroom when the last session of the
Vance and Simmons trial was begun
yesterday morning. Vance, who has
been In San Francisco but two years,
had no relatives to await the verdict
with him. while the relatives OF Sim
mons, after demonstrations of joy at
the jurx's verdict, congratulated Vance
also upon the outcome of the trial
The counsel for both sides finished
their closing arguments Thursday aft
ernoon. Judge Cook began yesterdays
hearing by instrueting the jury re-
garding what evidence they should
consider in reaching verdict. His
charge TO the jury was brief. He said
that although martial law did not exist
1t might have been the impression OF
the accused that 1t was In force. and
that II the jury believed that the young
men thought they were shooting at
looters when they fred at Tilden's au-
tomobile. then the acquittal was neces-
sary.
Judge Cook also said that II the Jury
believed that the shooting was done
with malice aforethought, then the
killing was deliberate murder. but IL
malice was lacking. then murder was
not done.

10000 acres They will do a large
dairying business with both Portland
and San Francisco as outlets for their
trade. They intend later to increase
their colony in size and make Butte
Valley the largest Dunkard settlement
in the world.
The news Of the purchase was given
out at the Offices OF the Southern Pa

Middle West came TO California seek
ing location. They We're dissatisfied
with the interior States and decided to
