Soeriff Nelson believes that they have some wooled stronghold, po» silky provisionel in pdvence, where they carried their wounded com- rade after Saurday’s duel. This theory is borne out by the fact that tho fugitives have been seen #0 little since the man-hunt began. With more than 200 men spread out across the country in sarch of them, the fugitives could hardly have eluded their pursuers sc long unless they had some weil concealed hiding place. ‘The last time that the bandits were seen was Tuesday night, when a section foreman near Maynards spied them walking along the railroad track toward Port Townsend. He immediate- ly gave the alarm and a cor- don of deputies was hastily thrown around the region. This circle is now being drawn in under the personal leader- ship of Sheriff Nelson, who has high hopes of running the men to earth before nightfall.

The other day he was much wor ried when he came on a space more than a mile wide in which he could not find a single pons man. He bad visions of finding his comrades murdered in their tracks—until he stumbled across three of them, peacefully sleep ing, possibly within sight of the bandits. ee All autos passing along the road in the vietnity of the man hunt are stopped and searched. The deputies dispense with all formalities in these searchee— they simply stop the machine and stick # rifle thru the cur. tains with a terse “Stick ‘em up!” A Seattle family, that evidently hadn't heard of the man-hunt, got the surprise of its life the other day from such an expert ence. The man and his wife were perfectly willing to come acrons with all their valuables, but their children, a boy of 10 and a girl of 6, wanted to put up a fight and no one can tell what might have happened if the deputies hadn't explained .
