The prizes for the Veteran Turner's were
largely of an odd character, calculated to
provoke much merriment, and the prizes in
main consisted of articles for immediate con-
sumption.
BROUGHT In AT LAsT.-Chief Karche
returned from San Francisco Saturday even
ing, having in charge Byron Snyder, alias
William Russell, who was indicted by the
Grand Jury, February s, 1879, in connection
with Billy French, for burglarizing the house
of officer Manuel Dubois. The latter was
| brought to trial, and sent to San Quentin for
| two years. Snyder escaped and went to Ore
gon, where he was followed by officer Oliver
Q. jackson, but evaded capture by making
good time into Washington Territory, where
he remained until last October, when he re-
turned to San Francisco, surprising the vigils
| of the officers had been relaxed. His pres
ence, however, was discerned by the Oakland
police who arrested him, and telegraphed
Chief Karcher to come and get his man.
Having first obtained warrant from the
Superior Court he proceeded below and con-
| Quoted the new boarder to secure quarters in
this city, where he will await action upon the
indictment. The father of Snyder is a we'll
TODD farmer residing near Oakland, and
when the officer and prisoner passed the
ranch as they were coming up on the cars,
| the latter pointed out his fathers place. The
officer told him that was where he ought to
be instead of being in his charge, to which
| Snyder replied that he wished he was, and
seemed to evince an earnest feeling in that
direction. It is said that his father has sew
eral times furnished funds and started him in
| DuSiueSS, WHICH opportunities nave Deen as
| often disregarded and turned to bad use, until
his father has abandoned all further effort in
that direction, and left him to the results of
his unbridled tendencies.
CADETs.-A meeting was held on Saturday
evening at the Court house for the purpose of
taking steps towards perfecting the organiza-
ton and equipment of the company of cadets,
| to be an unattached company of the First
Regiment of Artillery. There were q large
number present of those interested in
| the subject, together with the company of
cadets. The meeting was called to order by
| General Sheehan, and on motion Albert Hart
was elected Chairman, and Mr.. II. Connolly,
Secretary. Colonel Raymond stated the OBJ
| ject of the meeting, and moved to appoint q
committee on finance and enlistment, to raise
| funds to uniform and establish the company.
| The following gentlemen were appointed :
p A. Miller, E. Greer, G. w. Chesley I'll.
A. Weaver, Albert Hart. The principal OBJ
| ject of the organization is to render its men,
bers efficient in military drill, that they may
be prepared to take the places of officers of
the State National Guard as they shall leave
their positions. After appointment of the
committee above stated and full discussion
of the subject, the meeting adjourned.
RUNAwAYs. = Yesterday double team
took run from the corner of Tenth and K
to Fifteenth street, where it tackled across to
M and made things lively along NJ as far as
Seventeenth street, when it came to q halt in
perplexing diagonal position across the
watering trough in front of Ranlett 4 Mar
tins. Here another double team, either from
| fright or to continue the excitement, took up
Il
! time out of the city as far as Brighton, from
which point later accounts reported the race
ended. Damages not stated. A couple of
| young men enjoying the luxury Of fine liy-
| cry turnout, while driving along on Y-street
levee on Saturday, had runaway from some
unexplained cause, which terminated near the
corner of Second and w streets. The buggy
was light built and when last seen the pieces
were being brought into town in arms pre-
paratory to recognition.
A YOUTHFUL OFFENDER.-Officer Burke
arrested boy about ten or twelve years
old, who gave his name as Woody Bryant,
| for misplacing switch at the depot. 1t is
stated that the boy has been making himself
exceedingly numerous and unwelcome about
the premises for some time, and had been re-
buked fer some previous misconduct, which
was not pleasantly received by the lad and
he watched his opportunity to get even about
| the matter, and the bent of his genius
brought up with opening the switch for that
purpose, and his consignment to the cooler
was the result. Fortunately no damage re-
suited from the displacement except partially
running from the track one of the yard loco
motives.

were made on Saturday and Sunday Chas.
