The local camp of the Army of the

on the road leading to the water works,
east of Manila. Strict orders had been
given by Gen. Otis that no Filipinos
should be allowed to pass through the
American lines after nightfall.
Aguinaldo had confirmed these orders
among his own troops so that there was
no excuse for the man who was shot by
Private Grayson while endeavoring TO
get by him.
This Filipino, followed by a few
others, came out from the rebel lines
and failed to stop after repeated COM
mands to halt, The sentry fired and
killed him. The latter's companions,
supported by others, opened fire. The
Americans returned It, and within an
hour there was firing all along the line
from Tondo, on the North Bay shore,
around to Malate, on the South Bay
shore. on February B, and Z the
Americans made a strong offensive, not
only driving the Filipinos from their
trenches and the old Spanish line of
blockhouses which they occupied, but

PASADENA, Feb. "a. e. Wilkin-
son, sales agent for the Mott Fire En-
gine company of Minneapolis arrived
today for the inspection of the new
engine recently sold the city. The in
spection and test will be held either
Tuesday or Wednesday and then a

equipment of the Pasadena depart
ment. The engine is one of the second
class and will throw a stream of water
measuring 14O0 gallons per minute. The
other two engines in the local de-
the addition will increase the protec-
tiOn nearly double. There has been a
number of kicks lately on the poor fire
equipment and 1t Is stated that the
negligence of the city fathers in Sc
curing first class engines and ncreas-
ing the equipment has been responsible
for the insurance rate remaining at it's
present high figure, Though it is ru-
mored that there will be a reduction
in the rate on the putting in operation
Of the new engine, 1t has not been con-
frmed by any statement of the local
representatives of the insurance con-
Germs.
1t is sure that with the addition of
the new machine the present equipment
is none too good to cover a territory
the size of Pasadena and would be
lost with two big fires raging in differ
ent portions of the city a condition
liable to arise at any moment.

BRAVE MAJOR HAS
BANDIT PAROONEO
HlGHWAYMAN THREATENED TO
KILL HIM
Both Were Principals in a Stage Rob-
berry Twenty Years Ago-Victim
lntercedes with President
Roosevelt

Mai A. J. Doran, president of the
city council of Phoenix, Ariz., and a
member of the Hassayampa club of Los
Angeles, who was recently a guest at
the Hollenbeck hotel, has just received
notification from Washington that in
response to his appeal to President
Roosevelt to pardon Francisco Reina, a
life convict at San Quentin prison,
the president has Commuted Reina' s
sentence to twenty years, which will
allow the prisoner his liberty October
13 of this year.
Back of Maj. Doran's appeal for
clemency on behalf of Reina is a story
of a bold holdup in which Maj. Doran
and the robber, Reina, We're the central
figures.
AS long ago as October 8, 1885, as a
stage coach carrying the United States
mail and one passenger was en- route
from Florence to Casa Grande, over a
emile route, it was stopped on an open
plain midway between the two towns
by lone highwayman, who presenting
pistol at the drivers head, ordered
him to stop the coach.
When the command had been obeyed
the robber rode to the door of the coach
and pointed his pistol at the one occu-
pant, ordering him to throw up his
hands.
Hands Go Up Quickly
Maj. Doran, for it was the major, lost
no time in complying with the request,
and the robber dismounted, and with
the pistol still covering his victim, Or
dered MIN to get out Of the coach.
His next step was to search the mail
bag for money, but the robber saw no
money there. Then 1t was that Maj
DOran thought he saw chance to get
the better of his assailant.
"Oh, yes, there's money there" re-
piled Doran to the groWl of the disap-
pointed man, and then as the desperate
stepped nearer to look at the pile of
letters Doran grabbed his gun and, yell
ing to the driver to help him, began
what he believed to be a life and death
struggle for the possession of the
weapon. In the scufhe the revolver
was discharged, frightening the horses
so that the driver had to give all his
attention to them.
For about two minutes the men
struggled for the gun, and then the
desperate, who was the stronger, threw
off his assailant, and walking away
about twenty-five feet said: II am go
ing to Kill you!"
TITS up to you" coolly retorted
Doran. you can kill me If you chose"
For a few minutes the two men glared
at each other, and then the desperate
mounted his horse and rode away,
cursing Doran as he went.
The major reported the holdup to the
authorities and the next day the ban
dit was captured by Deputy United
States Marshal Sid Bartelson and an
assistant.
