Two of Spain's Four Great Brigands Slain.
! The now Spanish Minister of tbe Interior, Honor Cafiti'la, has been more fortunate than [ hi? predocesßors in dealing with the four I brigands who for years terrorised Andalußi% : and who by moans of coma fearful 1 crime* and an organised system of menaces r*Ued the blackmailing of the wealthy ' citizens of" these provinces to a high ait » bich almost appeared a3 if it had become a I permanent institution of the country. j Two of tho four wore shot dead lately !at Valets! Kaluga, when, without disguise, they entered the house of a citizen whom i they had advisod to hold a large sum ready ] when they called to collect it. The spell i «hich the impunity of years had exercised 1 on the ptoplo is now broken, and the entire^ • band will uotr probably be captured or ehofc, i The nans of the two bandits causes great ! satisfaction.
