Yesterday afternoon at Recreation Parl
a large crowd assembled to witness the ath
letic exercises announced by the manager
Mr.. Piercy and in which Duncan C. Ross
Charles Lange and Thomas Carroll, "the
Brooklyn Giant" took part Frederick S
Robinson was also on the programme, and
gave very amusing act upon the bycicle
The feats OF strength and skill performed
I by Ross, Carroll and LANCE were excel
lently executed, Ross excelling the others.
In raising the heavy anvil over the head.
! they all failed ct first and when Thomas
Norton, from among the spectators, essaved
the feat and performed ii neatly, the crowd
! applauded him enthusiastically. Suisse
quently Ross showed that he had failed in
! tentiOnally, as he raised the anvil over his
| head and lowered it twice before dropping
| it.
! The wrestling was more interesting than
the other portion of the programme. At
catch-as-catch can Ross threw Lange after
a tussle of six and one-quarter minutes,
which made them sweat freely. Subse-
quently Ross and Carroll tried two bouts at
Gr;eco-ROman; Ross winning the first in
| thirty seconds, and Carroll the second in
tifty-tive seconds.
! been provided TO test Lange's ability to
withstand the effects of any team to pull
him from ladder. The horses pulled so
theoretically i'll testing the apparatus be-
fore LANCE took bis place upon the ladder
that one of the singletrees broke and de-
lay of half an hour occurred waiting for
substitute to be procured. Finally, when
everything was ready, LANCE took his place.
wearing a harness so arranged as to bring
the draft upon his shoulders and the upper
portion Of his body. The word was given,
the horses gave strong pull, and imme-
diately Lange was torn from the ladder,
turned back sOmersault and landed on
the ground three feet from the end of the
ladder. His left thigh struck something.
causing temporary lamenesS and his
tights were considerably torn. He did not
feel like undergoing another test of his
ability just then, and it was announced
that this afternoon at , o'clock he would be
ready 10 let the same team, or any other,
pull against him, and would forfeit $50 if
they succeeded in removing him from the
ladder. There will not be any charge for
admission to the grounds Last evening
Mr.. Lange explained that there were several
reasons why he did not perform the feat
the ladder was not placed high enough,
there was too much slack in The chain, the
horses pulled with a jerk, but, more trouble
some than all, they did not pull straight,
but went off sideways. However, he de-
clares they can't do il again"
There was to have been q collar-and-
elbow wrestling match between the cham
pion of light weights at that style, Adon
Butler, who arrived on the coast about three
months ago, and Lange, as Il wind up of
the days amuscments; but, owing to the
accident to Mr., Langc, il was omitted.
Mr.. Butler challenges any four 14O-pound
men on the coast to wrestIe him in one even
ing, each bout best two falls in three, from
$50 up, their score to aggregate against his
or he will wrestle any one man on the
coast, regardless of weight.

a game between the Intrepid Reserves,
of Marysyille and the Eurekas, of Sacra-
mento, was to have been played at Agri-
cultural Park yesterday, and the Marysville
club came down for the purpose. The
game did not take place, however, as the
Intrepids understood the arrangement to be
that it was to be commenced al II \. NJ, 50
as to be completed in time for them to re-
turn home. The Eurekas did not want to
commence until P. NJ, and the result was
that the Marysville boys, who had to get
back home that evening, went away with
out playing. In order that there might be
a game. an arrangement was made for the
Eurekas and knickerbockers to contend,
w. Mclaughlin catching for the latter, in
place of Newbert, who is not strong enough
for service, owing to his late illness Avery
lively game was played, resulting in a vic
tory for the knickerbockers

WANTED TO REALIZE.-SiN weeks or two
months ago man named Coleman embez-
lied about $1,000 in Butte City, Montana
and went to Reno, where he deposited
$1,000 in bank, 10 be forwarded to a friend
at Cleveland, O. subsequently he came to
Sacramento, and then went to Los Angeles.
and from both places telegraphed to Reno
relative to the forwarding of the money.
About eight days after he was in Sacra-
mentO two men came along in search OF
him, and went to san Francisco. Coleman
came up from Los Angeles and put W. at
the Occidental Hotel in the Bay City, but
somehow ascertained that those in search
of him We're on his track, and left in such
haste that he failed to call tor 800 which
he had deposited in the hotel safe His
subsequent proceedings are not known.
Last Friday Chinaman called at the Cali
forna State Bank, III this city.
and observing great secrecy, informed
Mr.. Gerber that white man had
several weeks previously left at his opium
den money paper for $1,000, promis-
ing to return for it in Il week. The week
and several more had elapsed, the man had
not come and the Chinaman proposed to
Mr.. Gerber that he would give him the
paper on the basis of - 600 to the China
man out Of the three. Mr.. Gerber tele-
phoned TO the police station, believing the
Celestial had committed a serious crime,
and officer Farren responded. The result
! was that the 5000 paper was found to
be only the receipt Colcm N had received
when he deposited the money at Reno, and
he had left it with the Chinaman, believing
that il would be safe there and could moi
be produced as evidence against him in
case he should be arrested. The Chinaman
was doubtless much discouraged when his
prospects of making big raise" were
dissipated.

STRRHUoUsLY OBJECT. The Gait Gazette
and Folsom Telegraph, speaking for a great
many people of the county. are displeased
with the action taken by the Board of
Supervisors last week in BUSTING Messrs.
Willis and Blanchard from the County
Board of Education, and assert that il is
al outrage that that Board should consist
OF city people exclusively, assuming that
the County superintendent, who was
elected from the country, and Professor
HYDE. who has charge Of the school ON the
Riverside road but resides in the city and
has taught the night school during the
winter. are TO be classed as such. Without
discussing the merits of this assertion, 1t
may be remarked that there is one thing
those papers forget, which is that the
County Board Of Education is body III
which the city is now much more inter
ested than formerly, as the City Board OF
Examination has been abolished, and
teachers certificates must be obtained
through the County Board

of May that lac had examined 40 nuisances,
and had gathered up and caused to be
buried all the dead fish found floating in

were not those that had been thrown in by
Chinese fish vendors, but were natives of
that pond, rs q number of live fish of the
same species were found there. The Health
Officer also stated that he bad, with the
assistance of ICc Bean and officer Airing
ton, made Il thorough cleansing Of China

ceived some severe scalp wounds. Mr..

thought no bones were broken. The lum-
Der was scantling nearly forty feet in

it was handed him by the messenger
that he took it into the station and
either laid 1t down or handed it to Mr..
Bonner, he did not remember which.
He did not appear to be greatly con-
cerned and was but slightly guarded,
anegro deputy doing the duty. Late
in the afternoon Baird's mother who
lived with him at the station, was mo-
ticed going off into the woods with a
package, and some one who followed
her saw her conceal basket of
provisions and some clothing in a
thicket. This wassIreported and at
once put Baird's captors on their
guard. -Four men were employed to
watch him, two of them armed with
Winchester rifles and two with pistols,
He was allowed to change his clothing.
and exchanged light suit for a dark
one, taking occasion to stuff new
soft hat belonging to one OF his guards
in his pocket. Still he seemed perfect
ly tractable, and the rigidity Of the
watch which had been kept over him
began to relax. He watched for
his opportunity, and seeking a
favorable moment made bold
dash for liberty. Sixteen shots
from Winchester rifles and navy skies
were fired at him in rapid succession,
but none of them hit him so far as
could be discovered. Once in the
thicket he had no difficulty in eluding
his pursuers, and Mr.. Brown, who was
in the city last nigh, said that though
the mots determined efforts to recap
ture him had been made they had been
entirely unsuccessful.
