In the report of the Pacific Sportsmen's
Clubs pigeon shoot, published yesterday,
it wasj stated that "Wittenbrock won the

as evidence that he was the champion poor
shot. Two others made the same score
that he did, and they settled the tie by
matching coins, instead of shooting off.
The overland express train was two and
one-half hours late in its arrival yesterday

AT the Republican meeting on Fourth

pale and almost fell down, and a third re-
ceived a trifiing hurt. Other stones may
have been thrown that did not strike any
one.

successful meeting.
The very numerous friends of our former
townsman, ex-Sheriff White, and who is
still well and favorably known throughout
this portion of the State, will be pleased to
learn that he has been nominated by the
Republican Municipal Convention, of San
Francisco, for Public Administrator We
hope to be able in November next to
chronicle the fact of his election, and if the
good wishes of his friends here could be
materialized into votes for him, there would
be no question of his having a booming |
majority.
Arthur Dombey, a farmer from Solano
county, came to this city Sunday evening, |
en route TO his old home near Pittsburg,
Pa. During the day he had said good-by
to so many, taking a farewell drink at the |
same time, that when he reached Sacra-
mento he was not in condition to take care
of himself travelling, especially as he had
considerable money about him, and Chief
Dillman gave him lodgings at the station
house until last evening, when he went on
his way rejoicing.
Mrs. Lizzie Trepp, %proprietress of the
lodging-house near the Postoffice, who has
been suffering severely from neuralgia, |
used laudanum to alleviate the distress.
On Sunday she was tormented with pain,
and took more than the usual quantity of
the opiate, only gaining temporary relief.
That night, while her nurse was absent
from the room, she seized the bottle of
laudanum and drank a large quantity. As
soon as the fact became known, physicians
were summoned, who had great difficulty
in saving her life
