Sketch of the Lately Deceased Sacra

Sketch of the Lately Deceased Sacra-
mento Baseball Player.
Our dispatches contained yesterday the
announcement of the sudden death of Nal
colin Lincoln Anderson, late of this city
but at the time of his death member Of
the Haverly Baseball Club Following is a
sketch of deceased's life:
He was born in Oakland, April Is, 1865,
| the night that John Wilkes Booth fatally
wounded President Lincoln. He came
prominently before the lovers of baseball
the opening of last season, and IN ade quite
a record as third baseman. He was re-
markedly fine fielder and fair hitter. He
was a left-handed hitter, but in fielding a
ball threw with his right. He had verv
peculiar attitude at bat, a pendulum like
| motion. Last season he ranked seventh as
third baseman, playing thirty games,
more than any other fielder in the position,
excepting Sweeney, who played like num-
Der. He accepted lis of a possible 155
chances, his percentage being .742 He also
played in the out-field during the season.
| He ranked sixteenth in the order of batting
In thirty-seven games he was 15S at bat,
| scored thlrty-threeruns and made forty-two
| hits, his average being .265.
On the Sth ult. Manager Harris, Of the
| Haverlys. went to Sacramento and signed
him for 1888. He was looked upon by all
as model young man. and was univer-
sally admired. His only living relative is
| his mother, who resides in Brockport,
Maine
The inquest was held in Oakland last
| evening. Just what disposition will be
made of the body is not known. Upon
Manager Harris devolves the sad duty of
breaking the intelligence to the aged
mother in the far East

THE ELECTION.
A Sweeping Victory for Good
Government.
THE BOSSES DOWNED In EVERY WARD
The San Francisco Bullies Fail to Get
in Their Work - Result
the Election.

The municipal election in this city yes
terday was one of the most important in
the history of Sacramento and resulted in
a complete victory for good government
and the total defeat of the bosses" Sell
dom has there been so much interest taken
in any election by the business men of the
city, who turned out in force and set the
seal of their condemnation upon the cor.
rupt practices of the ring. Every man
upon the combined Democratic and indie.
pendent Republican ticket was elected by
majorities ranging from la to l ,253.
The fact that the bosses had imported
to bulldose our citizens and intimidate
voters aroused the Indignation of all good
citizens, and they rallied around The polls
to protect the purity of the ballot-box.
The greatest interest was manifested in
the First and Second Wards, where the
bosses, with their employed emissaries,
practiced all the corrupt methods known
to the wards triker. Men were voted,
many of them swearing in their votes,
who are non-residents, voting on the names
of dead men or those who long since left
Sacramento, but whose names appear on
the overgrown Great Register.
The total vote of the city was 4, 444, or
90 votes less than that of one year ago,
when Mayor Gregory was elected.
Tim Lee was elected Chief of Police by a
majority of l,1S9, while Comstock beat
Todd 1883.
The bosses made their greatest hight in
favor of Huntoon, who was defeated by
We'll by 90S majority.
E. G. Hart, candidate for City Attorney
on the bosses ticket, was only beaten by
IA votes, owl, & to his personal popularity
and good official record.
Following is the result of the election in
detail:

The Tin-Horn Gamblers from San FraI
cisco Raid Sacramento.
lsan Francisco Examiner March 18th.

LSan Francisco Examiner, March 18th.
The election which takes place in Sacra-
l.'ento to-day for two City Trustees, City
Attorney, Chief of Police and Police Judge
possesses an amazing amount of interest
for the tin-horn gamblers OF this city, who
for the past two days have been emigrating
in droves to the Capital city.
The Oakland boat yesterday afternoon
took the last batch of as fine gang Of
toughs as ever robbed sucker" al
monte, the strap game or bunko.
They all went up for the purpose of as,
sisting A. j., or, as he is generally known
Frank Rhoads, the Republican boss Of
Sacramento, TO carry the election.
The registration and election methods o.
Sacramento are decidedly ineffective, and g
talented corps of Republican workers anC
repeaters might do great work in the FRS
and Second Wards, where Rhoads is partic
ularlv strong.
In the Third and Fourth Wards where
the responsibility Of the Republican party
lives, Rhoads and his satellites rode rough
shod over the people at the primary there
! and his successful effort to force upon thu
Republicans of the city a ticket salts
factory to him and not to them led to
revolt.
With excellent judgment the Democrat
| put up good ticket and to strengthen i
they placed on the ticket for Chief of Pc
lice an old and popular Sacramentan named
Tim Lee, who is strongly opposed to Bos
Rhoads.
The decent Republicans of the Third an(
Fourth Wards are of the opinion that tn,
Democratic ticket is an unusually gooC
one, and they are supporting it. Henc
| Boss Rhoads has made frantic appeals t.
the toughs of San Francisco for assistance
From all that can be learned they hav
responded to the number of 100, and I'm
less the honest voters of Sacramento ar
alive to the necessity OF watching then
closely there is strong possibility that the,
will get their work in to-day.
| 1t is said that in every instance the ex
ported talent is identified with Republican
| machine politics, and is under the com
mand of one Mike Dunn, a trusted partne
of Fire Commissioner Martin Kelly and
henchman of Boss Higgins.

JOUVlN.

Rarely has there been more
important store news than to-
day.
Henceforth aoe shall keeb
tile GENUINE 1ouvsN KID
GIo0eS.
Emphasis is put on genuine,
because the markets are flood
ed with limitations sold under
such names as:
ouvene.
System Jouvin.
Coup Jouvin.
ouvin ct Gle, etc.
The original and world-fa-
nous Jouvin Gloves are made
in Grenoble, France, by
Xavier Jouvin, from whom
we have received our stock.
These gloves are made with
gussets between the fingers,
and in fitting qualities, as well
as in finish, wear and style,
are not excelled by any other
brands in the market.
They arc the only gloves
made IN three lengths Of fn-
gers--Short, medium and long.
Thus a person with a fat
hand and short fingers is not
required to take a glove with
the fingers several lengths too
long, as in other makes.
The Jouvin Gloves we carry
are brands made especially for
us, and each pair is stamped
with our name.
The prices are as follows ::
5-button, ST. 10; 4-button,
stitched back, 81 IS; 6-but-
ton, stitched or plain backs,
81 40; 4-button, 81 50. We
specially recommend the 81 SO
glove. We also have the g.
button Jouvin Gloves in black
at So, and will shortly have
them in all colors at that price.
The ouvin Gloves are so
much superior to anything the
people of Sacramento have
been able to get heretofore,
that we feel in introducing
them that we are not only
Strengthening our own trade,
but are doing the community
at large service of more than
ordinary Importance.
