TRIAL OF GIBBS, THE PIRATE

During the early part of the past century piracy flourished quite prominently on the high seas and it was with great difficulty that it was finally wiped out. One of the most notorious of these pirates was James D. Jeffers, and his native place Providence, R. l. For a mum Der of years previous to 1881, when he was apprehended, Gibbs startled the world by his bold and atrocious career on the high seas. For a long time his crime seemed to defy and baffle all the efforts of pursuit and retributive justice.
 The continuation came. however, in November. 1880, in which month there sailed from New Orleans for Philadelphia the brig ''Vineyard," :" with William Thopby as captain, William Roberts as mate, and crew consisting of Charles Gibbs, John Brownrigg, Robert Dawes and oth CTS. When the "Vineyard' was five days out a young negro cook made it known that there were fifty thou sand dollars in specie on board. The crew discussed the matter and planned as to how they could secure the money. Finally the resolve was taken that as the master and mate were old men, it was time they should die and make room for younger blood. The conspirators
 
 of murder and piracy on the night Of November 23 The murder ot the master was by agreement to be ac- complished by Gibbs and Wansley, and that of the mate by Atwell and Church. This plan was carried out.
 The pirates took possession of the vessel, and Wansley, the colored cook, busted himself in wiping up the blood that had been spilled on the deck The money was secured and distributed in equal portions. They then steered a northwesterly course toward Long Island. When they reached within twenty miles of the coast they took to the boats and the brig was scuttled. several of the party were drowned before reaching shore.
 Gibbs, Wansley, Dawes and Brown rigg succeeded in reaching shore. Conscience stricken Brownrieg in formed the law of the murder, hay ing himself had no part in it's plan ming or it's carrying out. The other three were apprehended and the evi- dence of their guilt was full and conclusive.
 Gibbs was arraigned for the mur- der of Roberts and Wansley for that of Thornby. Being found guilty judgment in accordance with the law was pronounced. During the trial the iron visage of Gibbs was occa- sionally changed by transient emo ton. He had evidently abandoned all hope of escape, and sat the greater part of his time with his hands between his knees, calmly sur veying the scene before him.
 At this trial all of the life story of Gibbs and his piratical ventures were brought out, showing that he had been following this vocation for fifteen years, and so many had been the murders that he had committed that it was impossible to collect the list. Besides he had assisted in the taking of upwards of score of yes sels and appropriated their contents.
 At the trial Gibbs readily admitted his participation in the Vineyard" mutiny, revolt and robbery, and in the murder of Thornby; and so inn pressed was he with the universal

COUNTY b0NO|
 CASE DROPPED
Yavapai Officials Decide to Take No Appeal from the Decision That Enjoins Election on Court House Bonds
Especial to The Republican, )

Especial to The Republican, PRESCOTT. Feb. 21-No appeal will be taken to the supreme court in the case of Hawkins vs. the board of supervisors of Yavapai
 county, which has become generally known throughout the state IS the
 "Yavapai Court House case and
 which has awakened interest in many
 sections of Arizona because of the
 bearing which it was to have upon
 the rights of counties to issue bonds
 for road and other purposes when
 the indebtedness of any such county
 was less than four per cent of it's assessed valuation and such proposed
 indebtedness would not bring the to-
 tai above the prescribed four per cent The election which was called to be held next month is announced as off. not to be and as if it had never been intended to be.
 Official announcement is made that after due delberation by the board of supervisors and the county attor- ney it has been decided to call off the special election that was to be held to vote $25O,OOO in bonds for the building of a new court house It has further been decided to take no appeal from the decision of Judge Smith in the superior court and the injunction which he granted re- straining the board from holding such election. The matter is dropped. If any other county wants a de- cision relative to it's rights to bond for road building or other purposes that county may go ahead but Va vapai will not be the goat nor will it be the monkey that extends it's paw to draw forth the roasted nuts for others. Undoubtedly the deter imitation that has been reached will cause determination to three or four such counties.
 When it was announced that there was to be held a bond election to determine the issue of bonds for court house here, J. J. Hawkins b1 ought a test suit in the superior court. He sought an injunction to restrain the board of supervisors from holding such election To his complaint the county filed a de- murrer and on this the hearing was held and the injunction granted. It was announced then that an appear would at once be taken to the su- nreme court. Small hope of re- versaI of the lower court was held and the cost of the appeal was further obstacle.
 The decision of the county OIL cials here. it is believed, will result in inc matter of county bonds being loft in allowance until the next term of the legislature shall convene when amendments to the law will be or fered It i. not thought likely that any further attempts at bond issues where conditions are the same as bora will be undertaken elseWhere for if is thought that the superior courts will. render the same decision os in this case and that the tune roo,ired for the bringing of the ac- tion and for the. hearing Of an ap- neal and the handing down or decision thereon would be so long as to render the expense that would De ortai1ed unwarranted.
