An Incident of the Pioneer Days of California, San Franclsco Morning Call. “:Did yousee that sign, Billl T hopo T may never see the inside of a lodge again if that fellow hasn’t given the distress sign order two or three times.” The speaker was a big, raw-bonod Ten- neseean, one of the ringleaders of a mob of angry and excited miners who were giving alynch-law trial toasmeana lookis gambler us ever hailed from the clasic precincts of Pike county Missouri, The scene was not strange one in the south- ern mines at that time, and French camp bid fair to rival Hungtown itself in the summary way in which she moted out justice to all;offenders.; The occasion of the present excitement was the murder of a man named Gibson, who had been killed on the public road whilo going to his cabin up the gulch. The body was discovered carly in the morning, mutilated, and the condition of the ground gave p!unry of evidence that the murdered man had made a desgorate struggle and fought hard for his life, Inqury developed the fact that the de- ceased had been on aspree for some time, and was in the habi of frequenting a fan- dango or dance house in tho lower part of the town. Like many another honest miner of that day, Gibson was over-fond of a Mexican woman known as Lola, o 08 m l0am e |8a m s m. 108 m. 11 | m. im 2p m. 8 p. m. pet.

Among this woman's admirers, and she certainly had a pretty large num- ber, was a monte dealer called *‘Pike,” a man of ugly temper and rough manners, This gambler was known to be furiously jealous of poor Gibson, with whom he had qum-ru]r d several times, and more than once was heard to threaten him savagely. The result cf these inquiries aroused the wrach of the camp, which was great- ly excited over the murder, against the unfortunate monte dealer. Pike was by no means a favorite with the boys, unaer the best of circumstances, and now that suspicion pointed to him as the murderer of Hank Gibson, nobody had a good word to say in his favor. All seemed to be sat- isfied that they had the right man, No one but Pike could be guilty of such a cruel and cowardly net. PIKE I8 CAPTURED, Beforo the sun had gono to rost that day French Camp was rojoicing over the capture of the wretched gambler, As if conscious of guilt, Pike sought to make his escape by flight, **took to the woods,” as the boys said. ut the avengers were after him in hot haste, and partics of ten ..x a dozen scattered in all directions. Every mining shaft, tunnel and holo in the ground was visited and hed for miles around. Cabin after cabin was gone through, when just as the day began to wane and the boys were growing discour- aged, a shout from away up in the canon announced that their man was found. More dead than alive from fright and his frantic efforts to escape. Pike was dragged from beneath a lot of old sluices and sccurely tied, hand and fo Some of the miners were for dispatching him, then and there, and it was nogasy thing to save him from being riddled with bullets. ~ All his protest tions of innocence were scouted and jeer- od at. No one believed him when he fell on his knees and called heaven to witness that he had nothing to do with the killing of Gibson. Unfortunately for his atory the Mexican woman, Lols, who was supposed to be at the bottom of this tragedy, voluntaril me forward and contradicted Pike in_sovoral impor- tant particulars, According to his state ments he had not seon Gibson for twe days before his death, while the woman, on the other hand, said they met at her house the night of the killing, and had & more bitter quarrel than usual, after which Gibson went away, and Pike left soon after. Allhnufl she professed anx- ioty to save the gamBler, she did not hes- itate to express her belicf privately to a few of the boys that he had taken the life of Gibson through jealousy and re- venge. It is wonderful the expedionts & man will resort to for the purpose of saving his neck. Pike was & genuine surprise in his extermity. - He raved and swore and prayed by turns. Ho made all sorts of suggestions to account for the death of He made repeated Ho actually his unhappy rival, propositions to gain time, w eloquent in his app and exhorted the erowd by 4 of those who were near and dear to them back in the states not tostain their hands with his innocent blood. The only con cessicn the mob would grant the trem bling wretch, was the brief respite of a trial before his honor Judg s Lynch, who allowod no foolishness in his court, and made mighty short work of the cases brought before him A TRIAL BY JUDGR LYNCH, Under the wide-spreading boughs of a grand old vak, 1rom & convenient limb which already dangled u windlass rope with & hangman's noose at one end, the rough, sun-burned and neavy-boarded miners sat in judgement on their fellow- wan. Strange to say, although legal tochnicalitivs were scouted and cast to the winds, only twelve wen wero por- mitted to act as jurors in this rude and burbarous tribunal. At least some of the forms of law were thus preserved, and French Camp felt that the affuir must by conducted in & tip-top 1 body was given o hoaring who prof to Know or to have heard anythi the murder. Hearsay was good evidenc court. Little timo was allowed, for cross mining the wi Bach one was expected to step forward, say what he had to say in as fow words as possible, and then sit down, if he could find a seat on ono of the old sluice-boxes which served in the place of chairs or benches. THE OATH ON THE BLOODY CORPSE, Nothing of an exciting nature ocourred during the trial until the body of the murdered man; in all the ghastliness of death and frightful wounds, was carried in on a rude stretcher and luid directly in front of the jury. Then the prisoner was suddenly seized by strong hands and pushed forward, almost over the mutila- ted corpse. At a signal, and without a moment's delay, the cords were cut which bound him, and he was ordered to kneel down, place his left hand on the dead wan's head, raise his right hand to God and swear, if he could and dured, that he was not the murderer of Hank Gibson. For a moment, and only a moment, a convulsive shudder secmed to pass over the astonished and temified prisoner, Then, raising his head, while a bright light shone in his eyes, he deliberately knelt down beside the dead man, gently rested one hand on hisblood-stameu for head, raised the other as di ed, and called on Heaven to witness his inno- cence. Every man present seemed to be im- pressed with the solemnity of thissingular proceeding, and the sileuco of death provuiled as the accused stood in this striking attitude, appealing to God and man for mercy and deliverance. Just at. this moment, however, when the crowd scemed on the point of relenting, the Mexican woman already roferred to rushed into the circle and confronted the prisoner with flashing eyes. Grasping his uplifted haud, she pointed to the dead man lying at their feet, and passiouately implored him not to lose his soul to save his worthless life. The woman evidently possessed o terrible power over Vike, for the poor wretch trembled in every limb and looked the very picture of guiit and despair. A SIGN OF DISTRESS, “‘For God sake, boys, take her away!” were the first words that gasped forth from the ashen lipsof the piti ul creature, and his eyes never left the ground, until she had been removed beyoud his sight. Then he again protested his innocence, and begged for life, but it was apparent that the sentiment of the mob had chang- ed, and his chance was gone. 1t was at this time, in the hour of his misery and despair, when the angry murmurs of the impatient mob were sounding ominously in his ears, that Cap. Armstrong, the Tennessecan above referred to, caught sight of the peculiar sign, which caused him to turn anxiously to his friend and partner, Bill Thompson, and earnestly call his attention to what he had observ- ed. Armstrong knew Thomuvson as a brother of the mystic tie, although they had never sat in & lodge together. 1n fact, Masonie lodges were few and far be- tween in California at thut time. But while rusty, perhaps, in the work, hyth men cherished the principles and obliga- tions of their beloved order, and the discovery made by Arwstrong filled them with astonishment and emotion. Before they had fairly recovered from the surprise, the mob-jury had completed its labors, found the prisoner guilty, and sentenced him to be hanged. What was to be done? Late as it was cries and shouts of **Hang him! Hang him!" were heard on every side. There was a general demand for his immediate execution, To stop this clamor, and give a little precious tune for thought and deliberation, was the first step resolved upon. With this object in view, Armstrong got up ona box and harrangued the crowd, urging that they had done enough for one day, were all tired and worn-ont and had better go home and go to bed; the prisoner was in good hands, and that it would be better to have the hanging tuke place eurly next morning. The speaker was well liked by all the French camp, but it was with great difliculty that he carried his point on this occasion, Finally it was arranged «that the prisoner should be hanged at sunrise next morning, and with this understanding the mob of har- dy mincrs broko up fol dispersed, growl ing a8 they went, as if cheated out of their prey by even this temporary dolay. A KIDE FOR THE SHERIFP, Before the last of the crowd had dis- appeared, leuving only a handful of stal- wart and determined men to guard the doomed man, the two friends asked and obtaiied an interview with the prisoner. Fow words passed, but in less than five minutes thoy had satistied themselves there was no mistake, Bad as he appeared to be, he was indeed a brother, and as such entitled to ussistance in the hour of distress and danger; to what the laws of the country entitled cach and every man, & fair a legally-constituted judicial tribunal. How was this to be obtainedi There was no time to go around among cabins and reason with the miners individually impartial trial before | and even if there was, this plan did not promise very flattering results. There was 10 hope in making any further ap- peals to the mob when the fatal hour arrived on the morrow. What could be dome? There was but one course open which offered any reasonable prospect of #8. That was for one of them to reach the county seat with all possible speed, and bring down the sheriff to the rescuo. Twenty miles had to be travelled over rough mountain roads, and then it was & question whether the aid conld be had in time. However, there wus no other hope, and inside of half an hour the captain had saddled a horso and was clattering over the gravel and through the dust as if his own life were at stake. THE RESCU Fortunately, the sheriff wasfound with- out difficulty, and he belonged to that good old stock who did not fear man nor devil in the performance of duty. With & couple of tried friends on whose nerve he could rely, he started post-haste for the scene of action. But hard as the par ty rodo it was after \hl}lvbhi before they e in sight of Freheh Camp, and the rays of the morning sunwere paintingthe mountain erags in golden colors as the sheritf struck into a trail which would take him directly and without being seen, to the spot where the prisoner was con- fined. Had it not been for the efforts of Ihompson in protracting the work of preparation, finding fault with the rope, untying the knot, and in other ways caus- ing delay, the officers would have come too late. As it was, just as the gambler, with the n around his neck, was about being strung up by a host of strong and willing hands, the shoritf dashed in upon them, rode directly up to the pris- oner, proclaimed who lo was, cut the rope with one alash of his ponderous bowie-knife, pulled the accused up behind him on the saddle, and with pistol in hand rode furiously through the aston- ished crowd. The rescuo was complete. The prisoner was in the hands of thelaw. The agony over, the two friond breathed freely again. They had «lunn- their duty under painful and trying eir cumstances, The danger of mob vi Jence had passed. Now the law must tuko its course, It was no part of their duty to go further i behalf of the man Pike. Certainly they could neither de- mand nor expect for him more than a fair trial, and this he would receive at the next meeting of the district court, More- over, their part in the rescue was likely to get them into difticulty with the boys in the camp, who were highly indignant, and not a httle ashamed, at being out- witted and deprived of the fun and ex- citement of & hanging. Surely they had trouble enough without following wp the evil fortunes of & man for whom they had neither friendship nor res, It is true that in their brief interview with the prisoner he had in the most solemn man ner, and in & way that every brother could understand and appreciato, given them the most positive and unqualified assurances that he knew nothing what- ever concerning the murder of Hank Gibson, Notwithstanding these vehe- ment assu her Armstrong nor Thompson was satistied of his innoconce, and now they resolved to rest from their labors and leave the gambler to his fate. LOLA'S LOVER. Timo passed on. Several mionths clapsed. New excitements spraug up, and French Camp had well-nigh lost all interest in the Pike case, when the latter came on at the county seat. The trial procecded about as such affuirs usually do, until the lawyer who was defendii Pike asked permission of the court to have the Mexican woman, with whom the deceased had been intimate, recalled. When exumined in chief as a witness for the prosecution, at the beginnimg of the case, this woman gave very damaging tes- timony against the uccused. She testified even strouger than she did before the Ivneh-law Jury, and on her testimony alone could the prosecution ask for or ex- pect a verdict of guut. The court having granted permission to recall the witness, Lola again came forward and took her place in the box, Her appearance was stmiking in the ex- treme, and very different from what it had been when she entered the court- house two duys before. Then she was calm, collected and deliberate, with o wrd, cold unfeeling oxpression in_her fierce, black eyes. Now she was all ex- citement, her sallow faco livid with pas- sion, her durk orbs full of savage fury, her little hands clenched and working nervously. It needed no smartness to tell that something startling would fall from the lips of tlis witness, But few were expecting quite as much as the woman in s frenzied, passionate way, rat- tled off in Spunish, so fast that the inter- preter could not’ keep up with her. Every thing she had said before was abs - lutely false. The prisoner had nothing to do with the killing of Gibson, The latter was murdered for money he had won at a gambling table, aud the mun who did the bloody deed was o Spaniard named Gomez, This wan, she testitied, who was her lover,the only man she ever loved,wus in her house on the night of the murder when Gibson left to go to his_cabin, Gomez didn't like the deceased, and when they met at the woman's house some hot words assed between them. Gibson was boasting of his luck and had plenty of money. Go mez wanted to borrow from him and was roughly repulsed, A difficulty was pre- vented only by the interference of “the woman, The men became reconciled so far as to sit down and drink two or three times, aftor which Gibson, somewhat un- der the influence of luluur. left the house, Without o word, but an angry glance in his glittering eyes, Gomez followed the drunken miner and was gone about an hour. When he returned his clothes were torn and bloody, his face cut, and his whole appesrance bearing evidence of o long bl desperate struggle, He attempted no concenlment with the wo- man; told her the whole story, andsought und secured concealment in her house, To ward off suspicion and save her guilty lover, the abandoned woman had en- deavored to fasten the fearful erime on poor Pike. She said that Gomez insisted upon this for two reasons, First, it would alluy suspicion and excitement if some onewas hanged for the murder; and second, if Pike was not got out of the way ho would be hauging around the house, and miybe discover him and ruin all. With this object in view she had not hesitated to commit wilful perjury, and deliberately attempted to swear away the life of a man whose greatest fuiling was in loving such & monster in human shape, THE FALSE GOMEZ. As to h 1go of her heart and feel- ing asshown by her evidence, thero wuy not the least mystory. Gomez was o brute, even to her, and did not scruple to treat her likoa dog, This she could stand, for she loved the cruel villain with all the strength of her pussionet southern nature. But when, after long waiting and watching, in painful suspense and suspicion, her worst fears were contirmed by his shameloss and open confossion for another, all the rage and hate within her cruel breast was stirred to its profound- st depths, Determined on revenge and indifferent alike to her own danger and CHEA They always have the NO STAIRS TO CLIMB the gambler's welfare, she had eagerly rushed to the court and informed the di trict attorney of the true state the case, t first he refused to believe he but when the prisoner's deputy sheriff to her honse, and he re- turned with the blooy clothes worn by the murdorer on the night of the tragedy, there could be no longer question os to who had killed bson. Unfortunately tor law and justice, however the Span- inrd had got wind of what was going on and succevded in making his escape, As for the woman, she was allowed to go her way, with a warning never to show her sinsterand treacherous faco in French amp. ounsel sent a “‘xor auirry,” Of course the jury acquitted Pike- I'hero was no longer any doubt of his in- nocence. Liko one dazed by a sudden blow, he appeared hardly to kst the full force of the verdict when the foreman said *‘not guilt nd the sl il told him ho was & froe man again, otwithstanding his coarseness and rough appearance, tears flowed down his chevks while receiving the congratula- tions of those around him. Clasping the sherifl by the hand, he sobbed forth the thanks of grateful heart for his prote tion and deliverance. Back to the good old camp he went, a sadder, wiser and better man, The news of his acquittal had preceeded his coming, and the boys threw down the pick and shovel, and turned out in full ferce to give him a hearty welcome. French Flat hada new sensation this time, and the despised gambler was the hero of the hour, The men who had been the fiercest in clamoring for his execution were now most enthusiastic in doing him honor. Such shaking of hands and cheering were enough to warm the heart of any man, and the scene was long to be romembered. Poor Pike was great focted and_ in response to loud cries for a speech, mounted a barrel and told his story in carnest but plain language. Naturally enough, Captain Arwstrong and Bill' Thompson were not forgotten, and they fairly dwided the honors of the oceusion with the riend Pike. The latter, it afterwards turned out, had been a man of respectability and character in his old home; but, like many another goud fellow among the pioneers, had grown reckless and desperato amid the turbulence and excitement of life in Cali- fornia in the early days, ordeal through which he had passed open- «d his eyes to the folly of his evil courses, and made him aman agun, French Camp found in nin’'a useful and worthy citizen, and more than one poor wretch, when threatened with the terrors of wob law, had reason to be thankful for his ac and determined interference, \ *'LOOK OUT FOR THE ENGINE, Tuma locomotive engineer, and have been for twenty yoars, and am now running on the Maine Cen- tral Raliroad.
