Two Deserters Arrested.
'The Albany Herald gives the follow
ing account of two deserters who were
arrested in that city last week:
Chief of Police Lee arrested one
William Gould for deserting from the
regular army at Vancouver, and lodged
him in the county Jail. He came to
this city about two mouths ago and
80t)ii thereafter became acquainted
with Miss Fannie Miller, who he in
tended to many lu a few days, not
withstanding the strenuous objections
nf Miss Miller's father, We are In
formed lliat lie was generally disliked
by all his comrades in the barracks, as
he made a practice of borrowing
tnoney from anyone wlio would lend
to him, and would never pay any of
his just debts, Major Wilsort was no
tified and sent a detichment after him,!
The penalty for deserting is two years
ou Alcatraz Island.
A few days later Wm. H. Shores, a
deserter from the regular army, sta
tioned at Fort Sherman, Idaho, gave
himself up to Chief of Police Lee in
Albany, having become tired of tramp
ing. He was placed under arrest and
his officers were notified.
