a little before o'clock last evening a
hackman, generally known about the city
as Malusk," assaulted a Chinaman on X
street, between Eighth and Ninth, and
the celestial struck out and fioored
his assailant. Officer Stafford ! stened
10 the scene of conflict and n-stled
the hackman into a neighboring sa-
loon 10 have his gore-stained face washed
preparatory to taking him to the station
house, when all of sudden his prisoner
turned and dealt the officer stinging blow
in the face. Stafford amused himself for a
brief period with the warlike jehu, and

SPRING RACES.
III Sacramento Wants Them She Must
Begin to Stir Herself

If Sacramento Wants Them She Must
Begin to Stir Herself
So little has been heard Of late on the
subject of the proposed Inauguration of
spring racing meetings in this city, under
the management Of the State Agricultural
Society, that many persons had arrived at
the belief that the matter had been allowed
to die an unnatural death-throttled as it
were, by the indifference and short-sighted-
ness of the Sacramento public. Happily,
however, this is not the case Secretary
Smith and the Directors of the society
have at no time wholly despaired of hav-
ing the necessary sum of money sub
scribed by the citizens of this city, although
it must be admitted the latter are very
backward about coming forward with their
money. Like angels visits, however, their
responses are heard now and ther. The
latest to offer $500 to promote the enter
prise is VIM. Land, proprietor of the West
ern Hotel, who yesterday addressed the
following letter TO Secretary Smith:
SACRAMENTO, June 5. 1859.
EdtoiH F. smith, secreicry STATE Aqricultlrdi So
ctdg-DEAR SIR: Believing that the location of a
permanent spring racing meeting in Sacra-
mento, under the auspices OF the state Agricu.t-
uial CoNittSr VIII Dt ol SISAl value 10 the DuSl-
ness interests of the city, and at the same time
create an interest that will cause the location of
breeding farms in this vicinity, take pleasure
in adding my subscription of $500 to the fund
You may call upon me at any time for the
amount above named. WM LAND,
This makes the sum of $500 already
subscribed, but the sum required is 5000,
to which the State Agricultural Society will
add 5000, making very handsome sum
TO be offered in stakes for the first meeting.
If there be any considerable number of
Sacramentans who have imagined that the
spring meetings were sure to De inaugurated
here, anyhow, they will have their minds
disabused of that idea by reading the fol-
lowing:
SACRAMENTO, June 1, 1850.

that the san Joaquin Valley Ass citation and

publishing full statement of the county's
financial affairs. The purpose of Mr.. Bates
in moving that the matter be published in
the Gait Gazette was to avoid the heavy
expense of publishing it in the two daily
papers, and he (Tebbets) voted for it for
the same reason. He said that ever since
he became a member of the Board he had
used his influence toward giving the Bee
all the advertising patronage he possibly
could, and tie attack made upon him by
that paper he regarded as doubly migrate
ful because based upon false assumption

A Word to the Street Commissioner.

The following communication comes
from J street merchant and is addressed
to the Street Commissioner:
Why, in the name of goodness, don't
you have the sprinkling carts out during
the day and settle this intolerable dust
All this blessed day we have kept man
busting our store, and still everything is
covered as fast as busted off l should
think that at least two of the carts could
sprinkle J and X streets during the day
and save the merchants much trouble and
expense, or shall we have to club together
and have it done at our own expense, as
we have been doing in paying private
watchmen to watch our stores, when the
city employs twenty-five policemen to do
that duty"

tising Question.
Meeting a reporter of this paper last
evening, DR.. Tebbets, Chairman of the
Board of Supervisors, said; 81 see the
Bee pretends to think that the Supervisors,
or some of the members, have something
they wish to conceal from the public !
wish you would say that, so far as am
concerned-and, think, so far as any
other member of the Board is concerned
there isn't word of truth in the charge.
We simply did not intend to be forced into
doing advertising that was not necessary"
Chairman Tebbets went on to explain
bis action in leaving the Board-room on
Tuesday while the matter of advertising
the financial statement was up. He stated
that himself and Supervisor Bates were
called out by a Deputy Sheriff TO count the
prisoners, as the chain-gaDg returned from
its labors. He challenged any one to prove
that he had not always been in favor OF

Coroner Clark was notified yesterday that
a Chinese woman bad died suddenly in a
basement on Second street, under suspic-
ious circumstances. Deputy Coroner
George Clark investigated the matter, and
found that the woman had been Iberallv
hitting the pipe, and concluded that too
much opium was the cause of her death.
Her country people declared that she was
not dead, but only under the influence of
the drug, and had her laid out on the floor,
with the ends of her hair in a vessel OF
water. This, they said, would bring her
too in a few days. Mr.. Clark concluded
not TO disturb the body until to-day, under
the circumstances, although satisfied that
the woman was as dead as the proverbial
door nail"

WHAT IS WANTED.

There is needed, therefore. 1902 50 volun-
tary contributions before 2:30 P NJ. to-day,
that the fourth installment of $500 may be
sent forward by telegraphic exchange this
afternoon. The sum thus far contributed,
while handsome, is not five cents per capita
for our population, and it is therefore con-
ldently believed that far greater contri-
buttons will be made, and that, too, with
out solicitation. Many of the sums given
thus far have been in amounts from $40
to 500 each. There are, therefore, hun
dreds of people yet to hear from who are
able to contribute lesser sums, while not a
few remain who will certainly send in
quarter and half eagles and whole eagles.

THE NEED is GREAT.

THE NEED Is GREAT.
We can trust Governor Beaver and the
relief committees TO notify the people when
sufficient has been sent on. Our brethren
who have been so terribly afflicted, number
ing over 10000 people, are to be helped not
only to food and clothing and shelter tenn
porarlly, but common humanity dictates
that when the dead are all recovered and
buried; when the orphans are cared for
and the sick placed under proper care, there
must be provision made to enable the peo-
pie to rebuild their homes. They must be
aided to such an extent that they can
provide shelter for their families and Law
in some store of provision, that they may
seek labor and begin ife's struggle once
more, Let us suppose nine-tenths of all
the homes in Sacramento suddenly de-
stroyed, and the necessity we can fancy we
should feel for money assistance
To GET A GRIP UPON THE WORLD
Again, will enable us to form some idea
of the need of the stricken people of
the Conemaugh valley and its ten or ff-
teen destroyed towns. No one should be
reluctant to write line upon the relief
list because he is not able to give largely.
The small sum freely given, and according
TO the measure OF ability, is as blessed as
the greater. Our contemporary, the Bee,
OF last evening, said:
The fund opened in the RECoRD-UNIoN office
for the relief of the Johnstown sufferers at 3
O'Clock this afternoon had reached the sum of
81 ,59l 93. Three checks for $500 each have been
sent to Governor Beaver, and their receipt ac-
knowledged. The last installment was sent
this afternoon. Our contemporary VIII con
unue to receive subscriptions and it is to be
hoped that the list will swell to even greater
proportions. Everyone afford to contribute
something, and any amount, no matter how
small, wlll be cheertully receipted for.
The list will not be sent upon the street
and all contributions must be voluntary.

pleted for the benefit lecture by Rev. Mr.

AMERICANS INSULTED ABROAD.

Florist e. G. Hill Tells of His Arrest on
the Alsace-Lorraine Boundary.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, August 2O.-E. G.
Rill, widely known among florists as pres
dent of the National Floral Association
has just returned to Richmond, Ind, his
home, from trip to Europe and reports
that while en- route from Belfort to Basle
in com pany with Robert George, of Pains
vile, Ohio, the train was stopped at the
neutral line between France and Alsace-
Lorraine and he and his companion were
arrested as spies.
They and their baggage were searched,
their passports disregarded and they were
not allowed to cross the line.
Mr.. Hill says that the German officers
were obstinate and brutal in in their treat
ment of him, but the French were con-
siderate and cried, "Vive pAmerique," !"
when told the native land of the travel
lers.
They were denied the privilege of con-
tinuing their journey, although there was
nothing whatever to support the suspicion
against them, and they were compelled to
hire French peasant to take them back
to Belfort. Their treatment will be re-
ported to the State Department.

TWO NEW ROADS.
The Pennsylvania Railroads. Lines
Across the Meadows.

The Pennsylvania Railroads. Lines
Across the Meadows.
The two new lines being constructed by
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company to
cross the salt meadows are to be COM
b. M. e. J. f. Stanley, of Newark, are
constructing both of them, and after
completing the tracks of the Waverly
and Passaic Railroad, from Waverly to
Hamburg place, near Berlin street. in
Newark, they began on Saturday morn
ing last the laying of the tracks OF the
Waverly and New York Bay Railroad,
which commences at Waverly and is to
run to the oil docks at Communipaw, and
expect to have the work completed as far
as the pumping station of the intercept
ing sewer by the first of September. The
Wayerly and Passaic road will cross the
river about mile north of the plank
road bridge and connect with the main
line Just west of the meadow car shops.
This is the line to be used the railroad
officials tay, for through freight. There
is very prevalent opinion, however, that
it is intended for through passenger
traffic as well. The Waverly and New
York Bay road, the construction of which
was begun on Saturday last, will cross
the bay north of the bay bridge of the
Central Railroad and terminate at the oil
docks at Communipaw, and will be used
entirely for freight The Messrs. Stanley
have large gangs of men at work on both
roads. On the Waverly and Passaic line
there win be depot at Hamburg place,
between Berlin and Dresden streets,
which the contractors say is to be for the
reception and storage of freight only.
The company is unable to reach an
agreement with several property owners
on the line and will appeal to Judge Van
Syckle ON September 16 to appoint APP
praising Commissioners.
