quarters. Hubbard, who was chief
of detectives, took Policeman Murphy
with him, jumped on a car and drove
to the scene of the abduction. They
overtook the pair and Hubba\\
jumped from the car, stepped up be
hind the negro'and told him he was
under arrest. As the negro turned
he shot Hubbard through the stom
ach and then started to run. Hub
bard shot as he was falling, but only
succeeded in hitting his assailant in
the arm. Policeman Murphy pur
sued the murderer and emptied his
revolver into his body. Hubbard was
immediate lushed to a hospital, but
died within an hour. The negro liv
ed for several hours.
Van Dyke H .bbard, or “Dyke,” as
he was farm ally known, was well
known in Val r./. He was the young
er brother of Charles Hubbard, th°
discoverer of the Hubbard-Elliott
copper properties on Elliott creek.
He spent the seasons of 1995 and
1906 on EUiott Creek, at which time
he was just out of his teens. On his
return to the Stages he mode his
home in San Jose, and joined the po
lice force there. Ke was soon promot
ed to the plain-clothes squad and la
ter was mado chief. He leaves a
wife and four children.
rlis funeral was the largest ever
known in San Jose ,the Masonic lodge
of which he was a member, taking
charge of the services. The church
of which the abducted woman was a
member, sent a beautiful floral tri
bute. A collection for the widow and
children, started by the public, had
netted at the time the letter was
written over $3,000. It will probably
reach several thousand dollars mere,
as the brave officer who sacrificed
his life in the execution of his duty
was a universal favorite.
