Among the notable horses therein were Roy

mares that are to be bred TO Guy Wilkes.
The trainers, drivers, rubbers, sulkies,
in fact the complete outfit was on board

The gentleman in charge says: This is
the beginning of what will soon become an
J annual pilgrimage of all the finest stock

in the Sacramento and San Joaquin valley.
The racing stock of California has shown
its superiority on every race course

men have ascertained that the glorious
climate of tie Pacific Coast is what does it.
Here the colts can run in green pastures
every day in the year and the merest ex-
cuse for stable and good bed of straw

him from freezing to death.
Then, again, the cost ofraising colts and

SMOOTH WORK.
Frank j. Lee Helps Himself to Lot of
Railroad Tickets.


Constable Dyer of Colfax came to the
city on the overland express train yester-
day morning, having in his custody a
young man named Frank J. Lee, whom he
arrested on the preceding night at the in
stance of the railroad authorities in this
city. The prisoner was sent to the city
jail and locked up. This arrest was caused
by the conductor of the train on which he
was travelling finding in his possession a
number of blank overland railroad tickets,
which had evidently been stolen. The
conductor telegraphed back to this city,
and an investigation showed that the un-
executed tickets had been purloined from
the local ticket office at the depot.
1t seems that Lee represented to the
ticket agent that he was the son of a
prominent railroad official in Chicago, and
had been sent out here on special duty.
He affected (if he did not possess) knowl-
edge Of railroad matters, and the agent al
lowed him to sit in his office while they
were talking. Occasionally the agent had
to go to the window to wait upon GUS
toners, and while his back was turned Lee
helped himself literally TO tickets from
race near where he sat. Finally he ex-
cused himself, saying he would return
later on, and went out, leaving his over
coat behind him.
He departed on the 1870 train, and was
arrested, as stated, at Colfax, being then
under the influence Of liquor.
Lee is the young man who was engaged
as stenngrapher for Sam Jones, the revi-
valist, when the latter was in this city last
winter. He IS very bright fellow, very
rNla 10 adH
cent evencs have shown-is possessed of
abundant resources of kind that aid him
in making good impressions on those
whom he meets. He came to the city on
Monday night, saying that be had reached
San Francisco a few days before, after
sea voyage of some months, where he
found two kilograms awaiting him and
conveying intelligence of the death of
wealthy uncle at Reno, New, during his
absence; that he was the only heir to the
fortune thus left, and was then on his way
to Reno to have the estate settled up and
receive the wealth left to him.
Tuesday afternoon he called at the office
of gentleman whose acquaintance he had
made when here last winter and requested
permission to write a letter. A sheet of
paper was given him, and he busted him
self for some minutes in writing.
The result of his letter writing was found
upon his person in the shape of we'll
written recommendation ito all whom it
may concern" in favor of Frank Zames,
stating that he was an old and trusted en-
ploye of the firm, etc., and to which the
name of the gentleman was signed.
Lee, on his return here yesterday, stated
that he was under the influence of liquor
on Tuesday night, and had no recollection
of committing the theft.
The matter was yesterday laid before
District Attorney Bruner by special officer
Ben True of the railroad company and at
torney Charles T. Jones, and complaint
sworn to, charging Lee with burglary.

BOLD ROBBERIEs.
Three Residences Burglarized in TIL
Cify Yesterday.

Three Residences Burglarized in This
City Yesterday.
About o'clock yesterday afternoon Mrs.
George King left her residence temporarily
Cher husband being also absenO, on the
south side of P street, between Twelfth and
Thirteenth. and when she returned, found
that it had been sacked and robbed of $50
in money, a half-dozen silver spoons, 81
in small change, four silver napkin rings, a
lady's gold watch and chain, an old stem
winding watch, pair OF gold earrings and
pair of gold bracelets.
The servant girl employed at the resi-
dence of Charles Luhrs, on the opposite
side of the street. saw one man enter the
yard and go to the rear of the house, while
another kept watch in front, but says she
was afraid TO give an alarm or make known
what she had seen lest she should be called
into Court as a witness.
ANOTHER HAUL.
The residence of G. E. Grunsky, No. ZIG
Sixteenth street, was also burglariZed yes
terday afternoon, and doubtless by the
same parties, or one of them. Investiga-
ton showed that the property stolen con-
sisted of two S. gold pieces, half dollar in
silver, four copper cents and Belgian coin.
A young man who had during the day ap-
piled at the residence for something to eat
is suspected of being concerned in the
burglary.
AND YET ANOTHER.
Late last night another case was re-
ported and this time it was the residence
of police officer W. NJ. Lowell at 92S M
street, that was raided. Mrs Lowell went
out with her husband about o'clock in
the evening and did not return until II
o'clock. On entering the house she heard
a noise in the rear, and on trying to enter
room the door was showed back violently
against her. She heard noises IN two
rooms and screamed for help, and then
ran to her bedroom and got a large
Colts navy revolver. Just then one
big burly fellow dashed past her
and through window, carrying
it out with him. Mrs. Lowell ran to the
window and fired a shot at the fleeing rob-
Der, but was unable to tell whether or not
she hit him. The other man she did not
see, but is satisfied there were two of them
in the house when she entered. There was
nothing of value taken, as the thieves were
evidently interrupted at their work
There is evidently a gang OF crooks in
the city, and it behooves everybody to be
on the lookout for them. They do not re-
strict their operations to the nighttime,
and people should be careful not to leave
their houses unguarded even in the day.

ACROSS THE COSTUMES.
The Supervisors Pleased with the n,
Rridpe af Live Oak

The Supervisors Pleased with the New
Bridge at Live Oak.
The new 1900 bridge built by the
county of Sacramento across the Costumes
river, at Live Oak, is finished, and on yes
terday the Board of Supervisors went out
to inspect it previous to accepting it from
the contractors, the American Bridge Com
pany. Supervisors Bates was the only
member of the Board who did not accom-
pany the expedition. George A. Stoddard,
bridge builder for the Southern Pacific
Company, and E. D Croley, another we'll
known bridge builder, accompanied the
party, as did also ]. B. Leonard, of the
| bridge company, and couple of newspaper
representatives.
The start was made in carriages from the
Courthouse at A. NJ, and the twenty-five
miles between Sacramento and the new
bridge were covered shortly before noon.
Two hours were spent in dining and in
speeding the new structure, after which the
return trip was made, reaching this city
again at about $50 P. NJ.
The new bridge is much larger and
| more imposing structure than has been
generally supposed. 1t is 301 feet in length,
and is what is known as combination
bridge. II bears every indication of pos
sessing unusual strength and durability.
1t is divided into two spans, each 1904 feet
in length. In the center the ends of both
spans rest upon two massive pillars of
| iron and concrete, which are sunk 30 feet
into the river bed, while the outer ends are
upheld by equally massive and strong
looking piers of sandstone and concrete.
The timbers and also the iron supports
were nearly all found to be tIihe heavier
and stronger even than were called for in
the specifications, which fact considerably
pleased the Supervisors.
Messrs. Croly and Stoddard, the experts,
made most minute and careful examina
ton of the bridge, at the conclusion of
which they pronounced it sound and
substantial structure, with the exception OF
few minor details, such as the equalizing
of the strain upon some OF the supports,
which could be easily remedied.
The Supervisors all expressed themselves
as we'll pleased with the work, and were of
the unanimous opinion that the bridge
would be accepted by them as soon as the
defects referred to by the experts were
remedied.
The old bridge which formerly crossed
the Costumes at this point, it will be re-
membered, broke down several months age
while drove of sheep were crossing it.,
and hundreds of the sheep were either
drowned in the river below, or were killed
by the fall. 1t will also be remembered
that the county bad to pay for those sheep.
