Tbey were: Jesse Perkins, Felton, said to be In A FATAL RIDE. A Four-Horse Stag Falls Over a Precipice near Felton. FOUR KILLED AND SEVERAL WOUNDED. dead. I asked Mr.

Mockbee If he would not assist roe In looseuing her clothes her garments were very light about her waist. He said "No;" that he could not bear to touch her, and asked me to dolt. 1 did so. About this time people arrived from the tollhouse with lanterns. Before, or about the time they arrived, she died.

When thev camo, hearing a voice up the hill, tliey went up and fouud a young man with a sovere cm In the hoad. In bringing him down they found the dead body of a young lady, but a few foot above the wreck of the coach. I asked a young lady, I think Miss Davis, if she had not better walk up tho track when we brought the body down. She Raid "No;" that she had the nerve to stand It. We brought the wounded man and the dead body of the woman down.

Miss Davis sppesred to take charge of them, working fslthfully while we were searching for the body of the third woman, who was missing. We lore away and removed i he much and the bodies of the two deed safe on the read could not get down the bank; Royse said to me that he "hoped God would forgive him as he took all the blame on himself, and thought it waa his fault because he did not know the road;" Royse was not hurt; thoro were nine on outside of stage and five inside; of those on the outside Miss Clark only was killed; Miss Holtz remarked to me that the driver was driving too close to the bank; the moon was down. Manson Kuaxell, sworn Am a resident of San Francisco, 2JI5 Pacific avenue; the names, ages sud residences of the deceased are as follows, to-wlt: Miss Celia Clark, -residence, 328 Ellis street, San Francisco, age 17 years, native of United Ststos. Miss Eva Hussey, residence, 17 Columbia street, San Francisco, age 10 years, a native of United States. Miss Iva Cowdery, residence, 2406 Mission street, San Francisco, age 17 years, a native of United States.

George Scott, residence 19 Rincon Place, Kan Francisco, age 17 years, a native of the United Stntos; I am fully authorised by the relatives of nil of the deceased to take charge of all the bodies of the deceased. Miss Virginia Davis was the next witness called. She was sworn and testified: I live in Newark, Alameda age 21 years; left Santa I'ruz beach at 10:30 r. stopped at the Ocean House; don't know driver; believe his name was Charlie Royse; at one or one and one-half miles from Santa Cruz the hay wagon broke down; then the two drivers, Mr. Perkins and Mr, Koyse, took the horsea back and got the bus, and Mr.

Royse was the driver; I gut Inside the bus and 1 said I thoniiht it was very dangerous In there If the hus tipped, so I got out and sat by the driver; just before the accident the driver sutppod his whip three or four times; we were all singing; he, the driver, asked, me If I could seo the road plain; I told him "Yes," and I said, an yonT" and be said, "Oh, yes!" Just after that we tipped over. I was sitting next to the driver; as the hus tipped over I fell over before the hus fell down the hill; I beard tho bus coming and scrambled out of the way and let aHtLITICAL, Of the twenty-four candidates on the Democratic ticket San Francisco ha seven, Santa Clare two, find I-os Angeles two. The groat valleys of th San Joaquin and Sacramento are almost Ignored. For tlii Senatorial District Monterey Co. offers two Journalists as candidates, one on the Democratic side, J.

W. Leigh, of the Democrat, and W. J. Hill, of th Index, on the Republican side. Should they both be nominated tbe contest will be an even one.

They are qualified for the duties of the position. Before the Democratic Stale Convention that convened In San Jose last week this county bad a number of candidates, but only one of them, Thos. fleok, even got his name before the convention. No wonder, for with one, Markley, from Monterey and two from Santa Clara Tully for Congress and January for State Treasurer, hart was nothing left for our little county by the to. At San Jose the Demoorats last week mora than paid the press passing compliment.

The nomine for Secretary of State is the editor of the Sonoma Democrat, and the nominee for State Treasurer Is one of the oldest snd foremost journalists of San Jose. J. D. Lynch, editor of th Los Angeles Herald, barely escaped being nominated for Congress, but as a miss Is a good as a mile Joseph will con. tlnne bis tread-mill service to hit Prty- For the first time in her ulstory Josephine Oregon, has elected a Republican Representative.

Josephine did nicely, and Is to be congratulated. We are at a loss to kuow why Oregon should to completely flop from Democracy to Republicanism, and have no donbt the ground swell will continue to California. There la no United States Senator to elect noxt winter, consequently the selectiou of Assemblymen with us ba little political significance. Not a much can be stid of the State Senators, as Farley's tuooessor is to be named two years from next winter. The platform adopted by the Democratic Convention.

Its construction oould not well be real meaning more obscure, or Its prevarications more apparent. It was a grave mistake to appoint David S. Terry Chairman of the Committee, and the author of the document itself, whoever he was, deserves the execration of every true Democrat. The platform ought to have been a straightforward enunciation of Democratic principle, supplemented by a few ringing resolutions, regarding the present evils of administration, and an expression of the methods by which the Democratic party would correct these abuses. The resolutions as they stand are, some absurd some Irrelevant, and but one or two of them worthy of tbe Convention that adopted them.

The platform, with its illy-conoealed concessions to the League of Freedom and twisted sentences on other parts, will prevent some from giving the cordial support to tbe nom. inees they otherwise would, While pretending, in their platform, to lie opposed to the grasping greed of the great railroad monopolies, the Democratic State Convention nominated for Railroad Commissioner a well known and avowed Ifl ill IJUUUU.

Knn.lnTJC.hool plo- liic held at the Bljt Trees Saturday last, nisde the trip to anil rmm mem via Ihe old Cirstiam Hill. nd many who went up along the grade came liark on the road named. Illsbardiy necessary to ask why they did so.

Mauy an anxious mother' heart was In her throat aa alie wended her way along the grade, looking down the yawniriK precipice below her, Deneia wiin four the narrow pike, thought of shying bones and Involuntarily el niched at the lltue coin at ner aide. It In a ahame that this mad should be left In its present condition. A mil or railing would make it comparatively aare. Oue-halt the length would be a great improvement. The row can not be great, it la an actual, crying necessity.

There are place where If (be team goes hair a aoten feet to the- lower aide thereof, their priceless burden of human freight will go hundreds of foot down the almost perpendicular mountain, to mangled form and relet bodies, Were we the Supervisor of the Kan J-orenw district aa Lumberman Is, and the owner of a paying xaw. mill and a fine body of Umber as Supervisor Hubbard is, this terrifying danger would not exist. No! We would work nights first. We would pull oQ the clapboardsof our mill and Ml np, Samson-like, the door-posts of our domestic temple before we would submit to ail'li a dnngeron condition of affairs. The district can not aflbnl it, Felton business Interests are aUiiding in their own light while her cilUeue allow her to lie thus isolated from the "outer world." SendMff, May 27.

What could ba more propbetie than the above, penned hardly five week ago All we predicted has come abont, and there are dead and wounded, and mourning and grief, and killed horse and ruined ooaeh four human being lost to society, three daughter and a son, young people arrived at that age to be of value to themselves and the country, The damage to properly sustained at the accident of Saturday morning last would more than pay for all the rati lug required. The people are to blame for this accident, the Super visors are to blame, the man who owned the horses that pullod the wagon is to blame for letting hi team go at aui-u an hour and to such a company of tiiougutess youngsters, the driver is to blame for going on the expedition and then turning hi tenia over to another that he might get ip antoug the singers, Roya is to blame tor driving a team with which he bad nothing to do, and over a road he knew little about, and we can not hold the parents and friends of tbe dead and injured an- tirely blameless for letting twelve children travel by night, over a road that i dangerous by day, and in the hands of a driver of whom they knew Utile, and who, as the sequel proves, deserted his post at the darkest hour of the night and when death and wounds lay in their track. Is the road to remain In its present condl' Uon, and will our people pretend that their presence Tbe Bulletin, in apeaking of the stage accident, Illuminates our histo ric! darkness by the following sinus lux if pot startling statements: 'The construction of the road waa largely due to the enterprise of Judge John A. Stanly of Oakland, who for many years was tbe owner of the riayunte ranch, a tract of heavy tim ber Jucltiding what are known aa the Uig Trees" near Felton. Judge Manly conceived tbe plan of making mad on ths west side of the Ban Jjorenxo through this ranch np as far as the present town of Felton.

He resided at Kauts Criut for a year or more, and expended a large sum, riiunios; npliitotiie thousands, from his private means." It Is news to us that the eonstruo-tiou of the road waa doe largely to the enterprise of any one man. The ehaiiuian of the meeting held In bonurof Its accompli!) uient said its eoiiHtrnetion tvas wore due to the efforts of the 8kktiel than to any other cause. It is news to as that John A. Manly ever owned the Sayante (Za-yante) ranch. It belonged to a relative.

The plan of building the road tinder consideration was conceived long before John A. ever taw Santa Crux. It news to as that John A. gave thousands of dollars to wards its construction. To the best of reoolleetioa the road cost fii.OOO, lb county contributing 3.000 and the people the balance.

Tbe para graph quoted from runs like one of W. C. Bartlell's articles, and reads as if that clever writer wanted to give the Judge a bit of tally, and at the same time to throw to tbe masses a Felton Item when it would be read Willi ths greatest gusto. To Mrs. W.

John Chlsholm," of Santa Cruz by me when the coach was li itrod that Royse was to drive; Perkins and Royse came to my barn about I was in bed asleep; tbey, Perkins snd Royse, came to the barn and woke me up and said they had broken down and wanted to get my coach; I said all right; Koyse I know; did not know Perkins; said to Royse, did Perkins know anything about driv ing a coach, and Rovse ssid he did Royso said Perkins was an old stage driver, and that Perkins' father kept a livery stable In Felton, and was responsible for the coach. So I run the coach out and tbey hitched the team on and started out; said to Perkins, "Friend, are yon accustomed to driv ing a coach?" He said, "I ought to be; I have driven years." I then had nothing further to Bay: Perkins then said to Royse, "Get on aud drive up," I supposing he merely meant up to where the other wagon was; I made no further remarks or objections; did not notice either Royse or Perkins under tbe influence of liquor; consul ered them perfectly sober; saw both or them take a drink berore tney left took a drink with them; if I had con sldered one or either of tbem tinder the influence of liquor I would not have let them take tke coach, as a protection to myself. The noxt witness called was Fred C. Torrey, who being sworn, testi fied: Live In Oakland; occupation, clerk; aged 17 years; was with the party at tbe time of the accident and was on the coach; my story is about the same as the former witness, Mr, Dickey, excepting I heard one of the young ladies Inquiring II we were not going too nesr the edge; also Air, Perkins said to Royse as we were go.

Mis Eva Hussey, Mudent, Mills' Semin ary; Celia Clark; did not think the driver was safe, for the reason he drove too close to the outside bank; be did not seem to drive to tbo outside purposely, but because he did not know the road; Royse afterward told me he did not know the road; I told Perkins that Royse was driving too recklessly, and for blin to drive, snd Perkins said Royse was a perfectly safe driver; this wss fifteen to twenty minutes before the accident; the driver was not driving very fsat, only a little faster than walk; believe the driver was about ve feet out of the road from the in- tide bank; at lite lime or accident or minute before I noticed the wheels ere outside of the inside bank; heard one young lady say live minutes be fore that she did not think we ware balf a foot from the outside bank; she did not speak to the driver, she spoke to me; had Royse build a fire, sent Parkin to Fslton for help, ss those fttateaaeat tbe Driver, i'karles sWyse The Csra-aer's Inquest Incidents. Etc. News by telegraph reached this ctly early last Saturday morning that a party of young people, out for a hay ride tho night before, had gone over a precipice near Felton, and that four of the party were killed and several other wounded. The party had left Felton Friday evening at 7 o'clock, bad driven safely to Santa Crux, visiting the beach, and were as Jolly as jolly could be, singing merrily as they went along. On their return trip, at about 11 o'clock, when quite a mile from town, the wagon they were In broke down, and the driver (Jesse Furkln having beeu engaged to drive from Felton and Charles Koyse only being at th time aa a passenger, he having asked for a ride as far as the Powder Works) came back for a sound vehicle.

Mr. Perkins was accompanied by Charles Royso and they procured a Concord coach of John Chlsholin. Nothing was said by Mr. Chiaholm to Perkins that he would not let the coach go without Ruyse drove. Tht lour horses were attached to tbe coach, Perkins and Koyse mouuted the seat, and the coach was driven to where the hay-wagon was broken down.

The party, consisting of Misses Celia Clark, of Oukland; Eva Ilussey, IvaCowdery, Alice A. Holts, Sallle Jobson, of Sen Frauclsco; and Mist Virginia Davis, of Newark; Messrs. George Woodburn Scott, Benjamin Burling, J. D. Barr, William K.

Mockbee, W. F. Dlxey, of San Francisco; Fred. C. Torrey of Oakland, Immediately boarded tbe coach.

The reins were given over to Koyse, and Perkins took his seat behind the driver to lake a hand in the singing, aa it is said. Koyse has the reputation of having driven a stage many years sgo in some of the mining counties, knew the management of horses, had traveled the road mauy time, and it Is presumed it was considered safe by Perkins to let Koyse drive. The party were in the best of spirit, tbe coach waa not driven loo fast, and at tbe time of tbe occurence of the accident was not going much faster than a walk. Tbe place where tbe accident took place was one of the worst, but not the worst, places on the Felton turnpike road, about four miles from San ta Crux and two miles from Felton Tbe precipice at this poiut is almost perpendicular, and leads down to the S. P.

C. R. R. track, and still further down to tbe San Lorenzo River, a distance, by actual measurement, of 270 feet. The road where the acci dent occurred is twelve feet wide, and marks were plainly seen whore the coach left the road before reaching the fatal spot, and where the outside wbeels ran out on the projecting in the past, placed In a position Ilk a trestle and covered with dirt.

The night waa dark at the time aud the road was but dimly teen, and the driver possibly presuming that he bad more room to spare, not knowing the precise spot, had turned the horse out of the road, or had allowed them to get ont of the road themselves, to avoid what seemed ahead, close to the bank, a large stump of a redwood tree, which stands baldly out a few feet beyond at a short turn of tbe road. He bad hi calculation cut abort No warning was given of the capsizing! nothing was beard btit the plunging of the wheel-horses as they eudeav- vorcd to hold a footing on the road, and with the breaking of tho heavy plank close to tbe bank, on which wss tbe hind wheel of tbe coach, all were hurled from the road, those on top of the coach being thrown here and there at different dis tances. Only one riding outside was killed Mis Cells Clark. No doubt but what the coach was helilor some moments overhanging the fear- ful precipice by the leaders on tbe road, during which the wheel horses continued their plunging, and when they had kicked away all footing for themselves, pulled tbe leaders over, snd those inside he coach, with coach and horses, went down, rolling over and over till the railroad track was reached. After tbe shock wss over several of those not killed called by name the Individual member of tbe party.

Soma answered and were found to be not much hurt, but, alasl there were some in tbe bloom of youth that had ceased to breathe and were no mora. Search revealed to the gaze three who wore Instantly killed George W. Scott, Ira Cowdery, and Celia Clark. In three quarters of an hour after tht accident Miss Eva Hus- sey wsa also numbered among the slain, having moments of conscious ness, but not being able to apeak. Help waa Immediately aunimoned and tht wounded and dead removed, preparatory to taking them to Felton.

Mist Virginia Davis, a niece of President A. Davis, was thrown only a short distance down the In cline, as was also Royse and Perkins, and she managed to help considera bly th wounded of her party. No bandages being bsndy to bind up the wounds of tbe injured she took off ber skirts and tore them Into ban dages. In many other way did she help, and her nerves only gsve way when everything was don that could be dont. There was no disfigurement of the body of young Scott, but at tbe base of the skull, Just at the top of the neck, the bones were all fractured.

Tbe top of tbe skujl ws also crushed In. Tbe young women were more or less disfigured. Misses Cowdery and Hussey bad their faces scratched and swollen, the former uavlng a deep cut on tht left tide of the forehead. The face of Mist Clark was horrlhlo to behold, and strong men turned away with a shudder as they gazed on ber features, distorted by tbe agony of death. Both eyes were greatly swollen.

The left wrist wss dislocated aud both bands were scratched. The dead- and wounded were removed to tbe Cnnningbsm Honse. Dead were laid out, and the wounded cared for by Dr. Burgess and Worth of ban Francisco, twisted by Dim, horses, expecting to find the body of the woman beucatu. vt roiimi uom-Ing there.

1 stayed until daylight. I told some parties there that there were more than could work to advantage, aud that I had better go home ami tell my ife of the accident before she received the news from others. They replied, "Yes; there is nothing more yon can do that will be of any assistance." 1 told them that if they needed me I would I at my home' at the Powder Mills. The moon went down at 11:54, the accident occurred one hour later, I think fully as late as one o'clock, consequently the young lady who says the moon ws shining brightly at the time of the accident and that tho road was plain to be seen, must be mistaken. This Is my statement of the accident, and true as far as I know.

C. U. Rotse. The bodies of the dead were removed to San Fraucisco ou the afternoon of the accident. A special car was kindly tendered by the S.

P. C. R. R. iu which to place tbe bodies while en route to San Francisco.

Capt, Garrett was at Felton at tbe time and taw to the proper arrangements. The remains of tbe young deceased were followed from Felton to the cars by at least four hundred people. Miss Cowdery was found thirty feet below tho railroad track. She could not have fallen over and beyond the track iu the fall of the coach, consequently it is concluded that the Injury she sustained In the fall of the coach only stunned her; In her wanderings thereafter tbat she fell down the rocky bank where found, and was possibly killed by tbe lasi fall. Poorgirl! Her parents and friend were anxiously awaiting her return, and when she staggered and wandered about there was no hand to stretch forth and save her from death.

A load of bent irons and kindling wood was haulod through towu yes terday, fragments of the smashed coach. TF.LEUKAPHIC. ISFECIAL TO THE SKXTIXEI-l Wasiiixqton, June 30th Gniteau was restless during last night, but slept some toward morning. He ale a hearty breakfast. Dr.

Gultesu read a poem of his own com posing, but on attempting to sing it broke down. He consulted with his brother John and the Warden of the prison regarding the disposition of bis body, and at 8:15 took a walk in the corridor.

At ten o'clock Guileau expressed a desire to take a bath, tbe object of which was evidently to divert his miud. He showed nervousness, and bij uncertain movements and tremulous tones impressed the guard with the belief that he was rapidly weakening. The crowd outside got word at last, after long and patient waiting, that Gultesu was hanged, and they ruisod shouts so loud that it was impossible to hear voices Inside of the Jail. Gul-teau's neck was broken by the fall, aud no movement of the limbs or bsdy was detected. Death was In- stantaneons.

It pass me; both drivors caught bold of me; the whip of tbe coach was tightly entwined about my waist; told the drivers to go down aud help the others up and they did; Mr. Dixey and myself walked up the road aud tried to get down to where tiie otbors were; I did not notice that the driver often drove to the outside or tbe road saw the road very plain; had not beon riding very fast; did not notice that either of the drivors was tinder the influence of liquor; driver said he had often driven over the road and knew the road well.

Thomas B. Hubbard, aworn and testified as follows: Was at the scene of the carriage accident this morning; saw measurements taken of the track of the wagon where It fell over the bank; where it fell the edge the bank was about five feet from the rut of the road toward tbe bank that the carriage fell over; the road was nearly straight thereabout; I think the carrlago had loft tbo regular ruts of the road 100 feet before arriving at the place of the accident; the bank where It fell over did not appear to have cavod on. John S. Douglas sworn: Was at the place of the accideut this morning; saw the messureuient taken from tin regular ruts of the road to the place where the carrlago fell over; the road at that place was just 12 feet wide; was just five feet from the nearest rut to the edge of the bank where the carriage fell over; I ahould judge that the carriage left the regular ruts the road 00 feet from where it fell over. William Price sworn: Was at th place of the accident this morning look measurements there; the full width of the road there was 12 feet at tho place of the accident; the ruts hug the bank above the road very close at that place; the carriage appeared to bave loft the regular ruts 60 or 70 feet from where the accideut took place through, and spill it in two about iu -Lout feet from where the accideut hap pened, John Chisholm recalled: Question Was that coach easily controlled by the pole? A.

I am the owner of tbe coach that the accident took place on and know its running in that particu lar; it was easily controlled The jury after deliberating returned a verdict of gross carelessness against Charles Ruyse and Jesse Perkius. STATEMENT Or 0. H. R0YSB, DRIVER OK THK OVERTURNED COACH My first sight of that wagon was wheu it appeared before tbe Poclno Ocean House, at about ten o'clock the night of the accident, and I asked the driver if there was a chanoe for me to ride home to the Powder Mill. He told me "Yes;" that he could make room for me; I told him I could sit on tbe foot-board.

hen we got be yond the steam pump of the water company the wagon broke down returned with the driver to get anoth er wagon, and we went to the Eagle Stable and got a Concord coach; when we were hitched up, the driver, Per kins, asked me if I would drive, and I told him I would; I took the reins and drove out to the broken-down wagon, where we loaded, the people getting into and on the coach; we drove into the sycamore grove, some three hundred yards from the break down of the wagon; there, I asked tho young lady sitting at my aide If she could see the road; she said "Yes can't you?" I told her that I could We had left the town with the coach between 11:30 and 12 o'clock, cracked my whip to the horses, and we rode through the sycamore flat at a trot, and when I came to the foot of the Powder Mill grade I walked my team, continuing this speed to the top of the grade, say to three or four hundred yards from where the accl dent occurred, the accident occurring about four miles from where I bad cracked my whip. I bad bad no warning from any one that I was near the edge oi tue Dang, anu no one uacl ever requested me to give up the reins. The night wss so dark wbere the accident occurred that I could not see the road, and I trusted to my horses, giving mem a slack rein, he Ileving that they could keep the road better than I could, i had no warn ing that I was out of the road till the coach went over, throwing me from thirty to forty feet. I landed in a clump of bushes. I beard a gentle man and lady, rignt below me.

I went down to wbere they were, and asked them If they were hurt. Tbey said "No," but that there were other parties lust below them to go down snd see bow tbey wore. I went down and found two young ladies by a big tree, and there was a gentleman right over from tbem, say twenty feet distant. He came over to where we were. I asked him If any of the party were seriously hurt, lie said they were not, but tbat be wanted to get up to the first party I had met.

I helped him and his two lady com panions up to wbere they wished to go to where the nrst party was. Then they told me to go down and assist the people who were hallooing below. The first person I fouod after I got down was Scott, who was dead, and Mockbee. Mockbee told me that there was a young lady there badly hurl. We, Mockbee and assisted her sround on the opposite side of the tree, out of the way of the floundering horses.

There, he re quested me to bold her, as he could not bear to do so, and see If 1 nld do anything for her. I sst down and held hor head In my lap. Mockbee aiked her if she knew blin. She said she did. Then be asked her whore the was hurt.

She made no reply. I there till my limbs began to cramp. I asked him If he would not ftold ber for a minute, till I straight ened my limbs. He took her. I got up ami staled that I would try and find something with which to kindle a fire.

I had gone np the railroad, probably one hundred yards, and found some boards and was breaking them np, when Mr. Mockbee requested me to hurry back, as the was dying. I went back. We put a cloth under htr bead. She was not yet slightest disguise In this nomination.

Mr. Carpenter's Railroad affiliation and predilection are well known. The fact of his sympathy with th great corporations wss openly talked of and generally understood, not only by the delegates, but by tbe public at large. It wss the compensation given to the Railroad Compsn. ies for their consent to allow Stone-man' name to be placed at the head of the ticket.

They realized that the change would be to their advantage, They thus gain a friend in Stone- man's place, and they can well afford to accede to the latter removal, even though somewhat hnmllatlngly obliged to support blin for Governor, Uereury. In another column will be found the communication of Alfred W. Bur red in answer to criticism of the Hall of Records, in course of erection, the criticism appearing editorially In the Pajaronian. Mr. Burrell is al most an entire stranger to us, bar ing never even spoken to him till last week.

We have viewed the Hall of Records at different times, snd a tarn pie of the plaster used has been brought to our office. The building seems to ux to be built in accordance with the contract, and first-class. We have paid out about (600 for plaster lng during the last eight months, and as the men were at work by tbe day and without Instruction as to the ma terial used, It Is presumed the plaster used wss what It ought to be. We are onable to detect any difference between tht plaster tbey used and tbe samplt brought ut from the Hall of Records. Wt know nothing about the r.erils of the changes made after tbe contract was let, but believe that no contract ahould ba let nntll til specification are settled, and then that the work shonld be completed according to contract.

Of all tbe trait of human char acter which most command our "admiration, heroism baa the front rank. Santa Crux ha ber heroes as well as other localities whose surroundings are more perilous and romantic Trials have a tendency to deveiope the quality of heroism. Heroes may be profitably developed on other occasion than tbe battlefield, the shipwreck, or tbe snow storm. Tht runaway team la a fruitful subject for beroos to practice on, but a good many of them get killed before tbey el tain any great degree of proficiency in tbe business. Lately, tbe hero in terest in Santa Crux has been rep resentee, oy r-ror.
