the crowds surged to Dr. Ellison's house.
and the excitement grew more intense it
soon had spread allover the city. Extra
papers were gotten out, and thousands at
people flocked to the scene irorn allover
the city. .

The rumor of 'the arrest was later do
nlod, and it became known that Dr. (lib
son and the sexton oi the church had hoot:
merely called to tell what they know. At
5 o'clock came the nowa that Durant had
been arrested at Walnut crook on the road
to Mount Diablo. lie was caught by De.
teotivo Anthony. who loit in pursuit at
him early Sunday taunting.

was in Waiting and kept the crowd back.
Durant was hustled into a patrol wagon
and whirled away to the city prison. where
he was locked up. The poliw are certain
they have the right man. They claim to
have two witnesses who saw Durant and
Miss Williams in company last Friday
night, and also state that when n coarch
was made of young Durant/s house in the
pocket oi his com was iound a purse
which Miss Williams is known to have

The pollttv, however. think Durant is
another Jack the Ripper with a mania for

able that Durant is responsible, for the
killing oi irlugono Ward. is young drug
clork, who was iound stnhlmd to death sow
erni months ago in the store where he
worked. No trace was ever iound oi the
