COLLINS’ REQUEST. A Condemned Murderer Who Wants No Assistance in Finding God. Yesterday morning as Jailor Carter was preparing a bath for Collias,'who is sntenced to be»hung February first for the murder of Wn. F. Cummings in 1879, the prisoner said to him : ‘Tell the Sheriff [ don’t want a priest to hold mass that day when I go out on the honse [meaning the scaffold] in the yard there. -I can find.my own God, and He'll be just as good a one as any priest can find for me. I have faced death a hundred times, and I can meet it like a man in any shape it comes, Now don’t forget to tell the Sheriff about the priest.” Collins seems to have given up ,all hope of an extension of life after the day set for hanging. s<hiepeaeaienicngpiangcisintinnasonitats Tom Lawton Again. Some time ago Collins, the condemned murderer confined in jail at this city, gave the authorities to un-~ derstand that he knew the whereabouts of Tom Lawton, the murderer ‘who so mysteriously disappeared from Sacramento some years ago after helping Troy Dye and another man to kill Tully.

This contract was -recognized by all the agents where the arrived at Dutch Flat, Monday evening, when Manager Mott went to check his baggage to Triickee, the agent objecting on account of overweight. Hot words followed on both sides, when the agent suddenly and without any warning, strack Mr. Mott,over the head with a lantern, and knocked him seriseless for amomeot. Mr. Lawrence, a memmer.of the company, who was standing by, promptly knocked the agent down.
