CAUGHT A TARTAR.

Mr.. Leitch Would Reform the District
Attorneys Office.
Z. NJ. Leitch. the "reformer," sauntered
into the District Attorneys office yester-
day, and accosting Assistant District Attor-
ney Alvin ]. Bruner, asked him if he in
tended to do his duty in the matter of the
gambling cases by filing the information in
the Superior Court, as required by law.
Mr.. Bruner quietly replied that the Dis
trict Attorney was allowed by law thirty
days in which to file sll informstions, and
that he need have no alarm about the gam
bling cases. As a matter of fact, one of the
informatiops had already been filed
Mr.. Leitcb, turning to leave. made a re-
mark to the effect that if the District At
torney's Office did not do what the law re-
quired some prosecutions could be looked
out for
Then Mr.. Brnner was mad. With fire in
his eye he turned upon the reformer and
demanded to know what he meant. HIf
you came in here as friend" he contin-
ued, ito remind me that the limited time
was growing short, / would accept it in the
same spirit, and thank you for it. But if
you come here to threaten me. I'll re-
sent it'll show you the door very
quickly"
Mr.. Bruner then aaked Mr.. Leitch if he
ever knew of an instance wherein the Dis
trict Attorneys office had failed in its duty
in such cases. Mr.. Leitch replied that he
did not, and then Mr.. Bruner bowed his
visitor ont

LET IT BE ENFORCED.

The Ordinance Intended to Preserve the
Sidewalks from Blockades.
Now that the new ordinance to prohibit
the obstruction of sidewalks has been
passed by the City Trustees, it should be
rigidly enforced, and Street Commissioner
Mclaughlin says he intends to see that it
is obeyed.
There are some merchants in the city
who have been in the habit of making
workshops and packing places of the pub
lie thoroughfares long enough, and have
saved sufficient in rents in past years to
enable them to put up buildings in which
to have their work done.
There should be no temporizing in this
matter and no Partially shown. The side
walks were never intended for workshops
nor store-houses for tiers of old boxes.
There used to be story going the rounds
of an Irishman who was constantly on the
go with hand-cart, in which was con-
tanned all his worldly possessions, and who
was wont to reply to all queries that he
found it cheaper to hire the cart than pay
rint." This seems to have been the expe-
rience of certain class of merchants, as
regards the use of the sidewalks, and it is
about time they were made to pay rent.

THE CHANGING NEEDS HIM.
Brutal Pete Brown, the Slogger, to be
Sentenced To-day

Brutal Pete Brown. the slogger, to be
Sentenced To-day.
Pete Brown, the colored slogger, who re-
Gently brutality beat an aged foreigner,
named George Nichols, was found guilty of
battery in the Police Court yesterday. The
charge first sworn to was that of assault to
commit murder, but City Attorney Hart
after considering the matter, thought it
best to reduce the charge to battery.
Six witnesses testified to the outrageous
manner in which Brown beat Nichols, who
is an old man, 81 years of age. They had
got into dispute over game of cards,
and one word leading TO another, Brown
struck Nichols a blow in the face, which
brought him to his knees. The latter then
caught hold of Browns legs to prevent
him from doing further injury to him, but
the brutal slogger kept striking the old man
in the face until the latter fell into the gut
ter. Not content with this, Brown kicked
him with his heel in the face five or six
times Four or five witnesses testified to
these facts.
The defendant produced no witnesses in

ON THE ROAD.

Gentlemen with Fast Horses on the
Riverside.
The scene on the Riverside road last
evening was decidedly spirited. 1t was one
of the speed nights of the Sacramento
Driving Club, which occurs twice each
week-Tuesday and Friday. The high
wind prevented as large turn out as usual,
but there were many fine teams on the
road and some very speedy horses. J. w.
Wilson sat behind his gray and sorrel
roadsters, Mr.. Todd and his wife sped along
behind their elegant span of blacks, while
Sheriff McMullen, Messrs. O'Brien, An
drews, Corbin, Hornlein, Croker and a
host of others sent their flyers along at
lively gait. O'Brien's black colt was king
of the road last night, but there were a
number of others that were quite we'll up.
The road was never in better condition,
the gentlemen are all careful drivers and
observe the rules of the road" to the let
ter, and more exhilarating and enjoyable
drive cannot be imagined than on this road
on one of the evenings when the club men
are out with their horses.

The Enumeration About Completed
Time Wanted In Some Districts.
The enumeration of the city of Sacra-
mento for the eleventh census will be COM
pleted tonight. 1t Is probable, however,
that number of enumerators will be en-
gagged some days longer in writing up alb
sentees and preparing their reports. Any
one who has not been enumerated can,
upon furnishing requisite information at
the census headquarters, be added to the
census lists.
A number of people living in lodging
houses have reported that they were not
enumerated, but on Investigation they have
been found duly listed, their names having
been obtained from the proprietors of the
respective houses All such places are
enumerated as family, under the law.
There has been an application for an ex-
tension of time until Monday next for
Oakland and Stockton, but no answer has
been thus far received. Several districts in
Oakland and one in Stockton are behind.
If no extension is granted, a sufficient
number OF enumerators have been selected
to finish the work on time

OUT OF PRISON.
The Governor Grants Pardon to Harr.

The Governor Grants a Pardon to Harry
HUFF, and He is Free.
Harry Huff, alias Hanks, who was sent
to the State Prison for life from San Fran
cisco in June. 1886, was yesterday pardoned
by the Governor. In giving his reasons
for this action the Governor says that from
statements made by P. F. Dunno of coun-
sci for the prosecution, Chief of Police
Crowley, District Attorney Wilson and
Csptain I w. Lees, it appears that Huff
acted in self-defense, and that verdict of
manslaughter is ali that. in justice, could
have been found against him.
1t further appears that the Supreme
Court, in reviewing the case when on APP
peal to that tribunal, intimated that while
It could not reverse the Judgment of the
lower Court the prisoners punishment was

Beebe, the MOdoc Murderer, Makes a
Failure of Habeas Corpus.
E. ]. Beebe, sentenced to life imprison-
ment from Modoc county for murder. ap-
peared before Superior Judge Van Fleet, of
this county, yesterday on an application
for writ of habeas corpus. Carroll Cook,
of San Francisco, Beebe's attorney, was
present also. Upon it being shown that
certain documents and facts were not of
the nature represented to him, Mr.. Cook
submitted the case without argument-vir-
tually abandoning the case.
The action was promptly dismissed and
Beebe was sent back to prison.
Attorney Cook had been led to believe
that facts could be shown and evidence
produced which would warrant the Court
in giving Beebe his freedom-but they
didn't materialize.

articles of good reputation are initiated by dis
appointed competitors. and offered by ire

6rst-class in every respect and so acknowledged

many distinctive features of their pianos over
any other piano bearing the same or similar
name is the bushing of the tuning pins into a
thick. solid-iron wrest blank. Their pianos

Baseball Notes.

William Bowman, the expert catcher of
the Sacramento Baseball Club, was pre-
sented on Monday evening by his friends
and admirers with an elegant gold hunting
case watch and chain. Bowman is a great
favorite with basel ball admirers. He prizes
the gift very highly.
Hoffman, the newly-signed Sacramento
pitcher, is expected to arrive here to-day.
While out practicing yesterday Bowman
was struck by the ball ON the end of the
little finger OF the right hand, and the nail
was almost torn away. The injury was
very painful at first, but it is thought that
be will yet be able to play in Fridays
game behind the bat as usual.

Frank Dolan Pleads Guilty to an Aggra-

Frank Dolan, the individual who bat
tered a woman named Hattie Hoskins
while returning from the Caledonian pic
mic, changed his plea of not guilty to that
of guilty in the Police Court yesterday,
much to the relief of several witnesses,
who did not want their names mentioned
IN the case. The woman made a state.
ment to the Court explaining how Dolan
had beaten her in the face and kicked her
because she would not go home from the
picnic with him.

girl have made up, and yesterday she said
she did not want to prosecute him. Major
Anderson, her attorney, advised her to do
SO, however.
Dolan will be sentenced on Saturday.
