PACIFIC COAST NEWS. Great Northern Employes Leave Their Posts at Spokane. WALKOUT AT HILLY ARD. But Six Men Are Left in the Company's Shops at That Place. A FIZZLE AT OTHER POINTS. Workmen on the Montana Central Refuse to Join the Strikers. SPOKANE. Wash., Nov. s.— The situa- tion of the strike on the Great Northern at this point has assumed more serious proportions to-day, reports to the contrary notwithstanding. The men are leaving work, and the traffic of the road is greatly hampered. Allthe hridgemen quit work this morn- ing. There were sixty at work rebuilding a large bridge west of the city that burned \u25a0 tew days ago, and this morning they all came into the city. To-night itis reported r all the men except six inthe Hillyt»rd j>s have quit work. The company anticipates danger, for it has stationed deputies at the bridges west of the city and at the Hillyard car shops. Alltrains have been running as usual over the Spokane division to-day, but the men claim that it is only a matter of a few days v.ntil they will be tied up; that the wires are grounded, and that therefore they are unable to find out what is being done east of here. All the men at this point and Hillyard are very peaceable and deprecate anything but peaceable methods in the strike. They say the demand made to President Hill was reasonable, and that when he went so far as to refuse to even hear them he has only himself to blame if there is a tie-up. Among railroad officials of the Great >".>rihern there seems to be no alarm. They say the strike amounts to nothing and will soon blow over. The A. R. I",men have arranged to hold another meeting at Hillyard to-morrow, and their intentions will then be made known. HEFVSE TO WALK OCT. 3len on the Montana Central Remain at Their J'ost.t. BUTTE, Mont., Nov. s.— Advices from Kalispell are to the effect that the strike ordered on the Great Northern last night by Roy M. Goodwin, the A. R. U. director, is a failure, as the men refused to quit work, and Goodwin and three others are tinder arrest on the charge of malicious destruction of property. There does not appear to be the remotest possibility of a strike on the Montana Cen- tra!, regardless of \u25a0what may happen on the main line. Messages received from Havre nnd Xi«fisp«;lJ quote Chief Dispatcher Rog- ers of Vie Montana and Kalispell divisions, respectively, as saying that not a man in their jurisdiction refused to go to work this morning. The only trouble reported •was the grounding of the company's and Western Union wires east and west of Pacihc Junc- tion yesterday, which interfered with tele- graph business for about four hours until the difficulty could bo. overcome. Warren telegraphs from St. Paul that there is no trouble on the system. The preliminary examination of Roy Goodwin and other A. B. U. leaders, this afternoon resulted in binding them over to the District Court. Goodwin's bond was fixeJ at ?10u0. HILL IS COSFIDEXT. The Great yorthern President Declares There Is >~o Strike. ST. PAUL, Minx., Nov. s.—Reports up to 10 o'clock to-night are to the effect that trains on the Great Northern are running pretty nearly on time everywhere except at Devils Lake. N. D. At the latter point several trains were sidetracked during the afternoon, but officials of the company say all will be smoothed out in another day. Everything is again quiet at Kalispell, Co- lumbia Falls and Minot, President Hill was asked this afternoon what he thought of the strike situation and he answered laconically : "I have been looking all the afternoon for a strike center, but have not been able to find one. All the employes of the Great Northern are working full time. Engineer Best, one of the committee of agitators, who was discharged by the company to- day, earned $206 for the month just ended. We cannot afford at this time to have trouble with our men, and will not have." LOS ANGELES SWINDLERS. The Willard Family Convicted of Defrauding Colusa People. Received Money From Many Gullibles for a Worthless Complexion Wash. LOS ANGELES, Cal., Nov. s.— At noon to-day the jury in the somewhat cele- brated Willard case, known as the 1 Beauty Wonder" case, announced that agreement had been reached. The went out yesterday afternoon and Bpent the night and all the morning in coming to an agreement. The courtroom v.as crowded when the jurors took their Beats in the box. The verdict found all the defendants except Justice F. A. Wil- !ard guilty as charged in the indictment of conspiracy in using the United States iiiails for fraudulent purposes. The defendants convicted were Neta K. Willard, C. D. "Willard, her husband, and Willard, the father of the family. jury recommended the latter to the mi rev of the court. The announcement \u25a0 i tiie verdict fell upon the cars of the de- fendants like a thunderclap, as they ex- pected an acquittal after such a long con- ion by the iury. Mrs. Willard began t > sot. violently, a:i"l the other defendants iohowed suit, the scene being a very pain- nil one for a few minutes. The Willarls are the people who adver- tised the -Beauty Wonder," an alleged worthless complexion wash, and were ac- s.ed ,°. f tangling Mary V. Bond of Colusa and: others into transferring some of their money into their pockets. The inception of the scheme was an advertisement in a Colusa paper, which read: "Any honest lady wishing to make $15 a week quietly at home, address, with stamped envelope. Neta L. Willard, Los Angeles, Calif. This offer is bona fide. Work ready to send at once. A steady position." Mary V. Bond answered the advertise- ment, and in due course of time received a reply informing her what was expected of her. She was informed that sne would be appointed manager of a branch office, her duties to consist merely in conducting the correspondence and filling orders for "Beauty Wonder" from twelve agents who had already been appointed in that terri- tory and would report directly to her. She would not be expected to canvass for the magnificent toilet article supposed to be manufactured by the Willards at Los An- geles. As a matter of fact no agents had been appointed and after sending $43 to the Willards, and realizing she had been swin- dled, Mrs. Bond reported the case to the authorities. The case, which was at first supposed to have been of little importance, developed from the testimony into one of more than ordinary interest, the swindling operations of the outfit extending all over the coast. The indictment was issued under the charge of using the United States mails for fraudulent purposes. Judge "Wellborn finally set the time for sentence of the Willaras at Monday morn- ing, and they were placed in the custody of the United States Marshal, being taken to the County Jail to await their sentence. GATE FERJUKEn TESTIMONY. Sensational Confession of a Witness in the Mace 3layea Case. LOS ANGELES, Cal., Nov. s.—Stormy times are ahead for some people con- nected with the defense in the Antelope Valley case, ordinarily spoken of as the trial of Mace Mayes, accused of stealing and killing a blue steer. Each day brings forth some new 6ensation in the case. Yesterday Horace Lawn and George Smith, two witnesses for the defense, were charged with perjury. One of them (Lawn) was locked up in the County Jail, but [-ninth has not yet been founa. Horace Lawn made a statement this morning to the effect that he had sworn to a lie when he testified that George Vande- carr was at his brother Dick's ranch near Santa i'aula on June 11 last, the day Mace I Mayes and George Vandecarr are said to have stolen the steer. He stated that he was persuaded into coining to Los An- i geles and swearing to the alibi by Dick ; Vandecarr for the purpose of helping to i clear his friend of the imputation that he j was mixed up in the theft of the steer. Mace Mayes is not in custody, as his Ibond holds good until the conclusion of I the trial. SIX MILES OF RAILROAD. Tracklayers on the San Joaquin Line Reach the Craw- ford Ranch. The Driving of Piles for the Valley Drawbridge Is Nearing Completion. STOCKTON. Cal., Nov. s.—The track- layers on the Valley road have now reached a point, six miles out from Stock- ton, on the Rosenbatim <k Crawford ranch. The work of driving piles for the piers and abutments of the Valley drawbridge is about completed, with the exception of the north abutment, where considerable ex- cavating has to be done. President Spreckels and his party are ex- pected here to-morrow on tlieir way to Fresno. XOnX I, AXI> MA RK. GOXE. Fire Destroys a Structure Built in the Pioneer Uays. STOCKTON, Cal., Nov. s.— Lodi has lost one of its landmarks. This was in the |shape of an unsightly wooden structure, I which was originally at Mokelumne Hill I during the early gold excitement. It was j afterward moved toWoodbridge.and thence to Lodi. Several times the owner was re- ! quested to tear it down, as its unsightly I appearance was anything but pleasing to i the eyes of the residents. One evening recently while young men of Lodi were playing Hallowe'en pranks they set fire to the j,lace. The hose com- Ipany responded to the alarm, but let the j structure burn. Some Chinese attempted j to extinguish the Harries, but the hose was turned on them and they quickly desisted. WAITIXG IOK THEIR PA.?. Workmen on the Woodbridge Dam Have \ot Seen Remunerated. STOCKTON, Cal., Nov. s.—Forty-rive men who have b«en employed on the Woodbridge dam are wondering when they are going to get the amount due them for their labor. Some $3000 is now due, and on the 31st of last month Foreman McClel- land went to San Francisco for the osten- sible purpose of bringing the money, which was to be paid the men for their services. The laborers are still waiting for his re- turn, and have about given up all hope of ever getting anything for their work. A carpenter "named Vickery, who lives at Loni, yesterday attached all the shovels, wheelbarrows and tools belonging to the company to satisfy his claims against it. RIVERSIDE'S NEW RAILWAY. Promoters of a Competition Line Apply for a Franchise to Run Through the City. \u25a0RIVERSIDE, Cal., Nov. s.—Riverside is soon to have a competition railroad in all that the word implies, if the action of a local company to-day, when it applied for a franchise for a road through the city, can be taken as an assurance. The franchise applied for is mapped out to connect with the old motor road which the company now owns ana which runs parallel with the Santa Fe through the east side of the city. For some time past this company has been quietly Duying up private property along the line of the proposed road, until now it owns a full right of |\vay through the city except over the streets, which right it seeks under to-day's application. It is almost certain that the franchise will be granted, and in the event that it is, it is the intention of the company to have the new line in operation to handle the coming orange crop, as well as to have the line built to South Riverside and thence to Chino and Pomona. NEVADA STATE COUSCIL. American Protective Association Dele- gates Perfect an Organization. CARSON, New, Nov. s.—The work of forming a State Council of the American Protective Association for the State of Ne- vada began last evening and was finished to-day. Up to this time the councils of Nevada have been under the jurisdiction of California. Charles Colburn of Virginia was elected president. Last evening a sumptuous banquet was served to the delegates from the subor- dinate councils, about fifty being present. This morning the committee on constitu- tion and by-laws reported and a form was adopted. There will be practically no dif- ference between the constitution of Nevada and that of California. The next meeting will be held in Virginia next June. The council adjourned this afternoon. Probably an Elopement. LOS ANGELES, Cal., Nov. s.— Beatrice Mooser, the 17-year-old daughter of L. Mooser, is niissin'c. She was last seen Sat- urday evening. It is feared that she has eloped with a gay Lothario who was pay- ins her attentions which were odious to her parents. PACIFIC COAST NEWS Hidden Cache of Burglars Found by a Middleton Huntsman. SECRETED IX A CANYON. \u25a0i Officers Recover a Wagon-Load of Plunder Secured by the Thieves. THEIR LEADER UNDER ARREST. Captured When About to Enter the Retreat of the Marauding Gang. UKIAH, Cal., Nov. s.— After defying and mystifying the officers of Middleton and vicinity for the past three years the leader of a gang of burglars that has long been operating in that vicinity has been captured and much of the gang's plunder- ings recovered. The unearthing of the hidden cache of the thieves was quite by accident, and the authorities and citizens of Middleton are greatly rejoiced over their good fortune. For some time past residents in and around Middleton have been troubled by burglars, who infested the neighborhood and carried off everything they could lay hands upon. At lirst it was thought a regularly organized gang of burglars was at work, and the officers were entirely at sea. The operations of the marauders were confined to the vicinity of Middleton, all the burglaries being within live miles of that pla:e. A younsr man who was out hunting last Sunday discovered a cabin in an out-of- way place about three miles northwest of Middleton, and about forty yards from the banks of the Putah, close to the dividing line of Coburn and McKinley townships. The cabin, which was concealed by brush, was about four feet high, fa've feet wide and eight feet deep. Access was gained by as- cending Putah Creek Gulch, which is very deep, about seventy feet from the trail, and when making a sudden turn to the right the remains of the old cabin were found, and a little farther on the cabin in question. The spot is almost inaccessible by reason of steep gulches, numerous ravines and heavy timber. The hunter who discovered the hidden retreat returned to Middleton, and then accompanied Constable J. L. Reed and a posse to the cabin. It was searched, and tools and clothing, jewelry and articles of every description found hidden within its recesses. A heavy wagon-load of stolen plunder was taken out and returned to the city, where many of the articles were iden- l\ed by their owners as having been stolen as late as two years ago. The officers laid in wait at the cabin for the arrival of the occupant, and soon G. W. Coburn emerged frnm the hidden trail and entered. He was immediately arrested and broaght to town, where a warrant against him was sworn out by E. L. Col- lins. Coburn wfll be arraigned to-morrow. BURGLARY AT SEBASTOPOL Bums' General Store Looted of Revolvers, Knives and Money. The Thief Had First Endeavored to Entice One of the Clerks From His Home. SANTA ROSA, Cal., Nov. s.—Burris' general store at Sebastopol was entered by burglars early Sunday morning and a number of revolvers, knives and other articles taken. The cash drawer was opened and a considerable sum of money secured. A stranger came to the store Saturday morning and wanted to buy a revolver. After examining several he left, saying that none of them suited him. About 10 o'clock at night the store clerk, named Thomp- son, who resides in another part of the town, was aroused by some one knocking at the door of his house. He went to the window to see who it was, and as the moon was shining brightly at the time, ho recognized the individ- ual as the stranger who had called at the store in the morning. The man shouted to him that a friend of Thomp- son's named Mills was taken seriously ill on the street, and wanted him to come at once. This afterward proved to be false. Thompson's wife, however, dissuaded him from going, and soon the stranger de- parted. The following morning the robbery was discovered. It is thought that the burglar endeavored to entice Thompson out of the house, with the intention oi ordering him to unlock the safe in the store, of which he had the key. There was a considerable amount of money in the safe at the time. Diligent search has been made, but as yet no arrests have been made. MEAGHER CASE DECIDED. Final Distribution of the Murdered Woman's testate Ordered, SANTA ROSA, Cal., Nov. s.—ln the case of the estate of Agnes Meagher, an order was made by Judge Crawford to-day for final distribution. This removes a historic name from the calendar. The Meagher murder, near Petaluma, one night during the winter of 1894, is still fresh in the minds of the people. Nancy Meagher, who had the use of her mother's estate durins her lifetime, was brutally killed by unknown persons. The same night her husband received a gunshot wound in the head, which nearly killed him. The murdered woman had had much trouble with her sisters over the estate previously. Two of them, Mrs. Bryan and Mrs. Fowler, and John Bryan were arrested. The trial of Mrs. Bryan came off last December, and she was acquitted. The other cases were after- ward abandoned, and so ended one of the most famous murder trials iv Sonoma County. The heirs, four of whom reside in San Francisco, will receive about $2000 each from tne estate. The case has been in liti- gation for a long time. qTAIXFOItI* THEATRICALS. Preparations for the Froduction of "Aa You Like It"\. „, in,/ Completion. STANFORD UNIVERSITY. Cal., Nov. 5-—Preparations are rapidly nearing com- pletion for the production of "As You Like It,"and in scenic effects the exhibi- tion will excel that on Sutro Heights, where the first entertainment was piven. Mr. Sykes, the well-known singer of the Boston ians, has been engaged to take the part of Jarques. The heavy rain whicn be- gan last night is being anxiously watched with the hope that the storm will clear away early enough to prevent a postpone- ment of the play. Dr. Gilbert has selected two more stu- dents to accompany him on his trip to Central America. They are R. C. Mc- Gregor and C. J. Pierson. GENOA'S GHOST SCARE. Ranchers Driven From Their Home by the Supposed Wraith of a Murdered Woman. CARSON, Nev., Nov. 5.-The people of Genoa are very much excited over the re- cent ghostly demonstrations at the Saar- man ranch. A family, a Chinese cook and some ranch employes who were living there were startled about two weeks ago by seeing the wraith of Mrs. Saarman, the murdered woman, engaged in scrubbing the floor and trying to wipe out the blood spots. Behind her was the figure of a man with a hatciiet. The Chinese cook was the first to leave, and then the ranch- hands followed. The family tried to hold out, but a few days ago left, as the ghosts came nieht after night. A man in Genoa offers $20 to any one who will sleep alone in the house over night. There are others who say that the ghost game is being worked by parties who want to get the ranch for a song. V AXLE JO'S yEW DAILY. Tioo Enterprising Xewspaper Men Boon to JOauneh the >"ew». VALLEJO, Cal., Nov. s.— On the 17th inst. another morning paper, the Daily News, will be started in Vallejo by H. F. Stahl, formerly editor and proprietor of the Tres Pinos Tribune, and James Coak- ley, who was for several years connected with the San Francisco Evening Bulletin as marine reporter and for the last six months has had charge of the local news of the Chronicle of this city. The pub- lishers of the new journal are young men, natives of Vallejo, and enjoy the esteem and confidence of the entire community, and the new paper will undoubtedly prove a profitable venture. The paper will be independent, and will be published in the interests of Vallejo and Solano County. B ASIA. CSUZ COURTHOUSE WAR. Failure of an Attempt to Jlava Superin- tendent Heck Deposed. SANTA CRUZ, Cal., Nov. s.— Architect Comstock this afternoon filed a complaint with the Board of Supervisors asking that Thomas Beck, superintendent of construc- tion on the new courthouse, be discharged, and naming several charges as a founda- tion for the complaint. Mr. Beck was called in and denied the charges of Com- stock, and his course was vindicated by a vote of the board. PACIFIC COAST NEWS A Fetich of an Ancient Tribe Found Near San Bernardino. MADE OF BLUE GRANITE. Workmen Discover a Monster Arrowhead in the City Creek Wash. SYMBOL OF A FAST RACE. Believed to Have Been Fashioned After Its Giant Prototype on the Mountain. SAN BERNARDINO, Cal., Nov. B.— Workmen, while engaged in splitting boulders yesterday in the City Creek wash, about eleven miles distant from this city, discovered a gigantic arrowhead. It is made of bluish granite, about fifty-three inches in length, and weighs over 200 pounds. The point and edges are perfect, and it is undoubtedly the work of man. The perfection of its shape ana the evi- dence of careful workmanship lead those who have examined the arrowhead to be- lieve that it was used as a symbol of fetich of some ancient tribe. It was found in a sheltered place at the mouth of the canyon, where it had apparently been placed a great many years ago. The City Creek wash emerges from the canyon at this point, and for miles below is a vast field of countless boulders. Students of ancient Indian customs believe that this find has some connection with the natural giant arrowhead in the mountain side pointing toward the Arrow- head Springs, which are only a few miles distant up a branch canyon. The local Indians claim to be ignorant of its use or meaning, but all point to the arrowhead in the mountain side, which they believe to have been placed there by the Great Spirit as a guide to the hot springs below. The huge stone was taken to a neigbbor- ing residence, where ithas been attracting the attention of those interested in the relics of the stone age. It will probably be presented to some California museum. BUTTO2PB FA.TE IX DOUBT. The Jury in the Murder Case Unable to Reach a Verdict, SAN BERNARDINO, Cal., Nov. 5. -The Button murder case was submitted to the jury at 2:30 p. m. to-day and late to-night the jurors were as far from a verdict as when they retired. When called upon by Judge Otis at 10 o'clock they reported that they were standing six for conviction and six for acquittal, and they then retired for the night. The murder for which Button is being tried tbe second time took place at a camp several miles east of this city in the sum- mer of 1893. Button becameinvolved in a drunken quarrel with Gustav Bohm, and while the latter was lying on the ground intoxicated stamped his face with heavy boots, crushing his left cheek bone. Bohra seized a knife, but was disarmed, and then seized a rifle standing near. Before he could shoot Button tired hi<j rifle, killing Bohm instantly. When Drought to trial Button pleaded self-defense. The prosecution claimed that he did not act in self-defense in shoot- ing Bohm, as the latter was practically un- conscious of his surroundings, owing to the punishment received. The jury gave a verdict of manslaughter. The d"etend- ant's attorneys appealed to the Supreme Court, which sent the case back for a new trial. Having been convicted of man- slaughter Button can now be convicted of no greater crime. WORK OX THE DESERT QUEEN. Operations at the Mine to B<- Resumed by a Ziarge Force of Men. SAN BERNARDINO, Cal., Nov. 5.— Work ia to be resumed upon the Desert Queen, McHaney Brothers' great mine. After considerable trouble arising between the respective owners and would-be own- ers as to who should superintend the work- ing of the mine in the place of James Mc- Haney the matter has been satisfactorily settled. Yesterday papers were signed by those interested appointing H. B. Adsit of Colorado, an experienced mining man. Mr. Adsit will have absolute control of getting the ore out of the mine and prepar- ing it for shipment. Under this new management the claims made by outsiders as part owners by actual discovery and transferring of titles will not be recognized, but will be fought to the bitter end. A number of men and ore teams are on the grounds, and a large sup- ply of provisions was shipped to-day. Mr. Adsit willassume control on November 10. Fire at Oak Park. SACRAMENTO, Cal., Nov. 5. The residence of Mrs. Weller, a widow living at Oak Park, a suburban village, was totally destroyed by lire this evening. Very little was saved. Tha loss is about $1200. PACIFIC COAST NEWS A Market Opened to the Summerland Oil Well Product. FAIR PRICE TO BE PAID. Impetus Given by a Contract Closed With a San Fran- cisco Firm. NEW BORINGS WILL BE MADE. Land-Owners Preparing to Increase the Output of the Precious Liquid. SANTA BARBARA, Cal., Nov. 5. George D. Eastman, representing Ea3toa & Eldridge, real-estate dealers of Han Francisco, is to-day in Summerland closing a contract with the Summer- land oil men, by which his company engaged to take the entire product of the oil wells for 75 cents a barrel. The only con- dition made by this firm is that the Sum- merland producers shall sink enough wella to increase their daily output to 4000 or 5000 barrels. kThere are at present thirty-seven well* in the district, three of which are not being pumped. There is plenty of territory upon which to operate, almost every well so far sunk having been steadily productive. Tlio only element wanting in the development of this promising district has been a sure and steady market for the entire product. This offer assures the prosperity of the district, and every one in Suinmerland is jubilant to-day. Those who are already on the ground will sink more wells, and new capital will flow in for this purpose. During the twelve montns since the first paying well was found there has been no decrease in the product. The fact that two wells bored but a few feet apart continue to yield without abate- ment would seem to indicate that the underground supply or this precious liquid i 3 practically inexhaustible.

Bpent the night and all the morning incoming to an agreement. The courtroomv.as crowded when the jurors took theirBeats in the box. The verdict found allthe defendants except Justice F. A. Wil-!ard guilty as charged in the indictmentof conspiracy in using the United Statesiiiails for fraudulent purposes.

The defendants convicted were Neta K.Willard, C. D."Willard, her husband, and

Willard, the father of the family.jury recommended the latter to the

mirev of the court. The announcement\u25a0 itiie verdict fell upon the cars of the de-fendants like a thunderclap, as they ex-pected an acquittal after such a long con-

ion by the iury. Mrs. Willard begant > sot. violently, a:i"l the other defendantsiohowed suit, the scene being a very pain-nil one for a few minutes.•

The Willarls are the people who adver-tised the -Beauty Wonder," an allegedworthless complexion wash, and were ac-s.ed ,°.f tangling Mary V.Bond of Colusaand:others into transferring some of theirmoney into their pockets. The inception

of the scheme was an advertisement inaColusa paper, which read:

"Any honest lady wishing to make $15 aweek quietly at home, address, withstamped envelope. Neta L. Willard, LosAngeles, Calif. This offer is bona fide.Work ready to send at once. A steadyposition."

Mary V. Bond answered the advertise-ment, and indue course of time received areply informing her what was expected ofher. She was informed that sne would beappointed manager of a branch office, herduties to consist merely in conducting thecorrespondence and filling orders for"Beauty Wonder" from twelve agents whohad already been appointed in that terri-tory and would report directly to her. Shewould not be expected to canvass for themagnificent toilet article supposed to bemanufactured by the Willards at Los An-geles.

As a matter of fact no agents had beenappointed and after sending $43 to theWillards, and realizing she had been swin-dled, Mrs. Bond reported the case to theauthorities. The case, which was at firstsupposed to have been of little importance,developed from the testimony into one ofmore than ordinary interest, the swindlingoperations of the outfit extending all overthe coast. The indictment was issuedunder the charge of using the United Statesmails for fraudulent purposes.

Judge "Wellborn finally set the time forsentence of the Willaras at Monday morn-ing, and they were placed in the custody ofthe United States Marshal, being taken tothe County Jail to await their sentence.

Officers Recover a Wagon-Loadof Plunder Secured by

the Thieves.

THEIR LEADER UNDER ARREST.

Captured When About to Enter theRetreat of the Marauding

Gang.

UKIAH, Cal., Nov. s.—After defyingand mystifying the officers of Middletonand vicinity for the past three years theleader of a gang of burglars that has longbeen operating in that vicinity has beencaptured and much of the gang's plunder-ings recovered. The unearthing of thehidden cache ofthe thieves was quite byaccident, and the authorities and citizensof Middleton are greatly rejoiced over theirgood fortune.

For some time past residents in andaround Middleton have been troubled byburglars, who infested the neighborhoodand carried off everything they could layhands upon. At lirst it was thought aregularly organized gang of burglars wasat work, and the officers were entirely atsea. The operations of the marauders wereconfined to the vicinity of Middleton, allthe burglaries being within live miles ofthat pla:e.

A younsr man who was out hunting lastSunday discovered a cabin in an out-of-way place about three miles northwest ofMiddleton, and about forty yards from thebanks of the Putah, close to the dividingline of Coburn and McKinley townships.The cabin, which was concealed by brush,was about four feet high, fa've feet wide andeight feet deep. Access was gained by as-cending Putah Creek Gulch, which is verydeep, about seventy feet from the trail,and when making a sudden turn to theright the remains of the old cabin werefound, and a little farther on the cabin inquestion. The spot is almost inaccessibleby reason of steep gulches, numerousravines and heavy timber.

The hunter who discovered the hiddenretreat returned to Middleton, and thenaccompanied Constable J. L. Reed and aposse to the cabin. Itwas searched, andtools and clothing, jewelry and articles ofevery description found hidden within itsrecesses. A heavy wagon-load of stolenplunder was taken out and returned to thecity, where many of the articles were iden-l\ed by their owners as having been stolenas late as two years ago.

The officers laid in wait at the cabin forthe arrival of the occupant, and soon G.W. Coburn emerged frnm the hidden trailand entered. He was immediately arrestedand broaght to town, where a warrantagainst him was sworn out by E. L.Col-lins. Coburn wfllbe arraigned to-morrow.

BURGLARYATSEBASTOPOLBums' General Store Looted of

Revolvers, Knives andMoney.

The Thief Had First Endeavored toEntice One of the Clerks

From His Home.

SANTA ROSA, Cal., Nov. s.—Burris'general store at Sebastopol was entered byburglars early Sunday morning and anumber of revolvers, knives and otherarticles taken. The cash drawer wasopened and a considerable sum of moneysecured.

A stranger came to the store Saturdaymorning and wanted to buy a revolver.Afterexamining several he left, saying thatnone of them suited him. About 10 o'clockat night the store clerk, named Thomp-son, who resides in another part of thetown, was aroused by some one knockingat the door of his house. He went to thewindow to see who it was, and asthe moon was shining brightly atthe time, ho recognized the individ-ual as the stranger who had calledat the store in the morning. The manshouted to him that a friend of Thomp-son's named Mills was taken seriously illon the street, and wanted him to come atonce. This afterward proved to be false.Thompson's wife,however, dissuaded himfrom going, and soon the stranger de-parted.

The followingmorning the robbery wasdiscovered. Itis thought that the burglarendeavored toentice Thompson out of thehouse, with the intention oi ordering himto unlock the safe in the store, of which hehad the key. There was a considerableamount of money in the safe at the time.

Diligent search has been made, but asyet no arrests have been made.

PACIFIC COAST NEWSA Fetich of an Ancient

Tribe Found Near SanBernardino.

MADE OF BLUEGRANITE.

Workmen Discover a MonsterArrowhead in the City Creek

Wash.

SYMBOL OF A FAST RACE.

Believed to Have Been FashionedAfter Its Giant Prototype on

the Mountain.

SAN BERNARDINO, Cal., Nov. B.—Workmen, while engaged in splittingboulders yesterday in the City Creek wash,about eleven miles distant from this city,discovered a gigantic arrowhead. Itismade of bluish granite, about fifty-threeinches in length, and weighs over 200pounds. The point and edges are perfect,and itis undoubtedly the work of man.

The perfection of its shape ana the evi-dence of careful workmanship lead thosewho have examined the arrowhead to be-lieve that itwas used as a symbol of fetichof some ancient tribe. Itwas found in asheltered place at the mouth of the canyon,where it had apparently been placed agreat many years ago. The City Creekwash emerges from the canyon at thispoint, and for miles below is a vast field ofcountless boulders.

Students of ancient Indian customsbelieve that this find has some connectionwith the natural giant arrowhead in themountain side pointing toward the Arrow-head Springs, which are only a few milesdistant up a branch canyon. The localIndians claim to be ignorant of its use ormeaning, but all point to the arrowheadin the mountain side, which they believeto have been placed there by the GreatSpirit as a guide to the hot springsbelow.

The huge stone was taken to a neigbbor-

ing residence, where ithas been attractingthe attention of those interested in therelics of the stone age. Itwillprobablybe presented to some California museum.

BUTTO2PB FA.TE IX DOUBT.

The Jury in the Murder Case Unable toReach a Verdict,

SANBERNARDINO, Cal., Nov. 5.-TheButton murder case was submitted to thejury at 2:30 p. m. to-day and late to-nightthe jurors were as far from a verdict aswhen they retired. When called upon byJudge Otis at 10 o'clock they reported thatthey were standing six for conviction andsix for acquittal, and they then retired forthe night.

The murder for which Button is beingtried tbe second time took place at a campseveral miles east of this city in the sum-mer of1893. Button becameinvolved in adrunken quarrel with Gustav Bohm, andwhile the latter was lying on the groundintoxicated stamped his face with heavyboots, crushing his left cheek bone. Bohraseized a knife, but was disarmed, and thenseized a rifle standing near. Before hecould shoot Button tired hi<j rifle, killingBohm instantly.

When Drought to trial Button pleadedself-defense. The prosecution claimedthat he did not act inself-defense in shoot-ing Bohm, as the latter was practically un-conscious of his surroundings, owing tothe punishment received. The jury gavea verdict of manslaughter. The d"etend-ant's attorneys appealed to the SupremeCourt, which sent the case back for a newtrial. Having been convicted of man-slaughter Button can now be convicted ofno greater crime.

SANTA BARBARA, Cal., Nov. 5.—

George D.

There is plenty of territory upon whichto operate, almost every well so far sunkhaving been steadily productive. Tlioonly element wanting in the developmentof this promising district has been a sureand steady market for the entire product.

This offer assures the prosperity of thedistrict, and every one in Suinmerland isjubilant to-day.
