THE FAIR,
II Will Com tss ence ON M IOnday If the
weather Permits.

II Will Comm ence ON Monday If the
weather Permits.
Should the weather be favorable the
annual race meeting of the Sixth District
Agricultural Association, which COM
mences on Monday next, promises to be
one of the most successful ever held at
the Agricultural Park. In spite of the
heavy rains during the past few days,
the track is still in excellent condition,
and the inside track has been used every
day for the morning gallops of the cracks.
The water which lodged at the south end
after Sundays rain, was run off as soon
as possible by ditching, and though
soaked again by Wednesdays showers,
showed a considerable improvement yes
terday afternoon, and there is no doubt
that everything will be in it's former first
class order before Monday.
The railroad companies have renewed
their promises to issue tickets to this city
from outside points at reduced rates, and
their offers to carry livestock for the fair
at 81 ecial quotations are still open to in
tending exhibitors.
The entries for the races embrace an
array Of cracks such as perhaps never
before appeared upon the track at Agri-
cultural Park, and good sport may be ex.
pected throughout khe entire week. That
the judging will be satisfactorily done ID

HAZARD, THE SLICK.
sheriff. Aguirre Heturns Empty
Handed From AL XII Land

Sheriff Aguirre Returns Empty.
Handed From Al HI Land.
Sheriff Aguirre returned from Ia
coma last night, with his chief deputy,
Brady, and without George Hazard,
whom he went to arrest. Hazards story
is fresh in the minds of most Los Ange-
geles people. He was wanted on a
charge of grand larceny. Aguirre went
North about three weeks ago armed
with all proper documents in perfect
form to bring his man here for trial.
One Sunday he caught his man and
lodged him in the Jail at Seattle. On
the very same day, Sunday as it was,
Hazard got out writ of habeas corpus,
commanding the production of Hazard's g
body before the court of one Judge
Allin, who held his Office BY
Federal appointment in the Territory
of Washington. On this day Hazard
appeared before the Court, denying that
he was q fugitive from Justice, that he
had fed from California, and that he
was the George Hazard named in the in
dictment, in the requisition, or in any of
the documents before the Court. Hazard
swore point blank that he was not the
man wanted in Los Angeles. Aguirre,
Brady and one other witness ewore he
was. The Judge thereupon denied the
application to restore the prisoner to
liberty. Sheriff Aguirre thought all was
right and he would have his man in
|jitfy; but not so. Hazard is man of
many resources. There and then he took
an appeal to the Supreme Court of the
Territory. Aguirre still thought he
would get him away, but Hazard seems
to have OWNED his thoug hts, and pro-
cured an order from the Judge that the
Washington Sheriff produce the prisoner
in court at 9 O'Clock next day to give
bonds, 30 that he could be released on
bail pending the decision on his appeal
when the court assemblies next January.
This was the last chance left the Los An.
geles Sheriff, and that was gone. Haz-
ard had no trouble in giving the neces-
sary bonds next day. A couple OF
office holders, whom Hazard is sup
posed to have helped get their election,
went on his bond for 81 1000, and, meta
phorically speaking, Hazard snapped his
fingers in Aguirre's face.
Hazard is q man of experience in this
respect. When he was charged with
grievous crimes in Indiana, he went
almost, if not entirely scot free. He may
have gone to jail for month or 80 pend
ing an appeal, but that was all. He
slipped through the fingers of the Off
GERS, lawyers and courts at all times.
He was up in Fresno some years
ago where he was charged with more
than one crime, but he always evaded
the law. In one case he was charged
with embezzling the money of friend,
entrusted I'D him while the friend was
drunk. Hazard returned a part, and,
as alleged, kept the rest. He did not 20
to Jail. He is just the opposite of Frank
Daniels opponent in Little Puck; Hazard
does not 60 to Jail.

HF. wade, the Successor to NIr.
mcCOOl. Arrives.
Mr.. K. H. Wade, who was appointed
by the Directors of the Santa Fe several
months ago to succeed Dan McCool as
General Manager of this division, arrived
in this city last evening and registered at
the Hollenbeck.
He was seen at about 10 O'Clock by a
reporter Of the HERALD. He had, of
course, nothing to say concerning the
affairs of the road, or the changes it is
expected will be made. He expressed
himself as anxious to get at the work
which lay in front Of him, and said that
he would probably arrange to take up the
duties Of the Office in few days.
IT had very agreeable trip" said he.
THE rain all along the line had laid the
dust, and it was cool and pleasant. I
left st. Louis Sunday night. / have not
seen Mr.. Marvel, and I cannot tell any
thing about when his projected visit to
this Coast will take place. I did not
meet Mr.. Sibley. and 1 have not the
pleasure OF the gentleman's aequaint-
ance."
Mr.. Wade was very polite and agree
able, but evidently did not wish to be
interviewed with. regard to any OF the
affairs of the road.

ST. CATHARINE'S ACADEMY.
A Place Where Children are Well
Taught and Cared For.

AaAA6 NJ anu O&Itu
Yesterday member of the HERALD
staff being in Anahein, Mr.. Theo. Rim
pau, ST., kindly invited him to make
visit to st. Catharine's Academy, re-
Gently erected there by the Sisters of st.
Dominic. He found q fine brick build
ing, substantially constructed and well
finished, in the midst of ample grounds.
1t is set at point whence charming
views of the surrounding country are
obtainable from every window in the
establishment. The mountains on sew
eral sides of the valley rise up clear in
outline in the bright sunlight Of perfect
day. On the two highest peaks in sight
were caps of snow, while all else was
sea of emerald. The climate at
Ansheim is always of the most
delightful nature. 1t is perhaps the
most healthful place in the State.
All the building was looked over. in
cluding the school rooms, where about
seventy-five children were engaged at
their lessons. They were very decorous
in their manner and very Industrious in
their tasks. The highest story ia devoted
to the chapel, where the chiloren are
assembled fer Christian devotion at reg
ular hours; and to the dormitory, where
the snowy coverings of the little beds
and the thoroughly ventilated rooms
told of sound sleep and good health
secured by the inmates of st. Cathar-
ines.
The Sisters are trained teachers, whose
whole heart is in their self-choeen voca-
tion, and everything about the school
told OF TIE perfect care, guided by long
Experience, that is brought to bear on all
the departments of their interesting
work.
The courses of study are very complete
including music and other artistic accom-.
plishmen;s. The solid branches of q
practical education are not neglected in
any particular, and to the languages
special attention is given.
| One does not have to visit st. Catha.
rine's Academy to become convinced o.
its thoroughness and efficiency. From
many persons in Anaheim, the highes,
enconiums are heard passed upon the
school. All who patronize it beal
testimony to It's excellence. The
daily mails to Anaheim bring many in
quiries addressed to the Sister Superior
asking Tor particulars in regard to tn,
school. Of the pupils resident at tn
school no less than twelve are from Sal
Francisco. Anaheim is very Justly pr0u,
Of this school, whose handsome buildin
is an ornament to the town, and wherl
the children of the place, as well as thos
from abroad who board In the school, ar
! 80 well cared for.

Part Of Wednesday afternoon will be
devoted to display OF equestrianism for
ladies', for which five prizes have been
offered. As there are q great many en-.
tries already, and the list will be kept
open until the day Of the exhibition, an
unusually interesting competition may be
expected.
On Thursday and Friday afternoons,
picked teams of the Southern California
Polo club will display their horsemanship
and welding of the sticks in exhibition
games of polo, a game that commends
itself to all lovers Of equestrianism. The
contesting teams will be as follows
Captain; Young, Waring
and Edmonds. Yellow-Bolton, Captain |;
Woodhouse, Machell and Allen. Cap
tain Tomkinson will oficiate as referee
and time keeper.

County Division.

The case of the new county of Orange
came up yesterday before the Supreme
Court. No decision will be rendered
here at this time, but one will be handed
down some, time probably within
month. If the election were to come off
now, with the experience the people Of
Orange county have before them, 1t Is
said by intelligent people in the new
county it would be largely defeated. 1t
is certain that much change Of sentiment
has taken place there since the election
was held.

ished In the course of some experiments on
