Kid Thompson who has been for a month past indefatigably hunted by Southern Pacific Federal and Territorial officers with a companion Kernel Hopper this afternoon were brought up to the Courthouse and surrendered to the Sheriff by Tonto basin cowboys by whom he had been captured early yesterday morning He is wanted for having been implicated in the Roscoe train robbery near Los Angeles last spring An immense crowd gathered to see the two outlaws tied by stout cords to their ponies and guarded by tbeir cowboy captors who were armed to the teeth with Winchesters and revolvers All had ridden seventy five miles in the preceding twenty four hours and men and beasts were thoroughly jaded Thompson and Hopper were only taken after a fierce struggle in which shots were freely exchanged with William Moore of the Reno ranch who had received word from the deputy United States Marshal here to be on the lookout for Thompson and a companion He immediately suspected two strangers who rode by his place last Tuesdny He summoned Ira Crab tree to assist him and the two men came up with tne fugitives and commanded them to throw up their hands Up went the bands of Ihompson and Hopper holding their drawn revolvers A moment later Hopper sent a bullet in the direction of their pursuers and both turning tbeit ponies rapidiy retreated followed by a couple of shots from Moore Hard pressed the suspects abandoned their horses and took refuge in a rocky canyon where they were besieged until daylight when they again opened fire sending bullets near Moores head Several shots were fired in return and at length leavine arms and ammunition in their retreat they came forth hands up and surrendered Thompson is known to have received a few weeks ago at Tern pe 000 of th Mexican money stolen from the train at lios coeand to have exchanged it here for American coin with a Chinese storekeeper Rewards aggregating 4800 from Wells Fargo Co the United States and the Los Angeles Connty

Receive Their Allotments of Land From the Oovernment Dr William A Winder of San Diego special agent of the Interior Department and Surveyor Miner have returned from Round VaUey Mendocino county where iheyhave been engaged since April last in apportioning land to tbe Indians Under the apportionment each Indian woman who is married to one of her own race has been given five acres the husband ten acres and all children ten acres Indian women who are married to white men and lhre are many of them nave received ten acres and the husbands nothing We have made 601 allotments and allotted a total of 6020 acres said Dr Winder at the Occidental Hotel last evening That lias taken every of available agricultural land in the valley and there are some fifty Indians for whom no provision has been made I do not know how they will be provided tor In addition to the agricultural land we have apport oned 49XXX acres of hilly grazing liiil among the Indians All the Indians who have received land will be ci zens and voters next year and they will cut a big figure in the elections in that district They are all awaiting the next election with manifest anxiety and are already doing a lot of electioneering John Brown the chief of the Uties wants to be a Justice of the Peace and from present indications be will probably get the office One very interesting thing which I noticed while alloting tbe land to the Indians was the character ol the names which some of tbe Indians have assumed One Indian is known Daniel Webster another aa James A Garfield and another as Abraham Lincoln There are two Henry Clays and four have assumed the name of Jefferson Davis They hold their land under these names QUITE A SURPRISE How a Grand Array Commander Was Treated by the Comrades A funny

Vicissitudes of the Church Priests and Monasteries Daring the first half of the eleventh century there is got eason for believing that the secular clergy including tbe parish priests it England had never Deen so numeroussays a writer in the Nineteenth Ctnlury Not only so but tbat relatively to the rest of the population they have never simie been so rich or occupied so strong a position In the Domesday Survey hardly more than 1700 churches are mentioned but it is agreed on all hands that this represents very inadequately the whole number tbat must bare been In existence at the time of the Conquest That number must certainly have run into thousands Every one of these churches had its endowments in the shape of tithes and offerings Every one had its glebe On tbe other hand the monasteries had by no means recovered from the devastation wrought by the Danes Many of tbe smalier bouses had been entirely blotted out and it may be doubted whether there were forty monasteries worth mentioning that were at this lime In working order from the Tyne to the Exe It may indeed almost be said that at this lime tbe parish priests had it all their own way and I am afraid that these clergy were none the better for their prosperity rather that their riches bad done them harm in more ways than one Soon the fashion began of founding new monasteries The cry was raised that only by tbe revival of the stricter religious life of tbe cloister could the priests and people be reformed The tide turned against the seculars and the monasteries rapidly became wealthy corporations
