SPORTING MATTERS.
DAGWORTH'S INTERESTING RE-
SUME OF THE LATEST EVENTS.
Baseball in Southern California The
New Jockey Club-A History of Nelson.
Other Notes.

Sporting matters are at standstill
Just at present. The outlook is very
encouraging, however, for the near
future. The nimrods report excellent
sport, and quite a number visited their
favorite stamping ground yesterday.
The baseball enthusiasts are gettin G
impatient, and it is to be hoped that
Manager Hellman Will be able to shape
his affairs so as to open here next Sun
day. The patrons of the national
pastime in this city will not take kindly
to another delay.
The Coronado running meeting be-
gins on Christmas day. The races have
all filled very well, and fair sport can be
anticipated. The bulk of the entries
are from Southern California, and it is
to be hoped that the San Diego public
will turn out better than they--did at
the recent trotting meeting.
The meeting of horsemen for the pur-
pose of organizing jockey club, an
nounced to take place this evening at
the Nadeau hotel, has been postponed
until Thursday evening at the same
time and place. This was done in order
to give several out-of-town parties an
opportunity to be present. The pros
poets for starting first-class club are
very fattering, and good attendance
Of YYosrective members is confidently
expected. ,--~ -
A little history of the sire of the fast
est stallion in the world, is taken from
the Chicago Herald Of a recent day:
About ten years ago G. II. Nelson, Of
Waterville, Me-, took some horses to
Boston for sale. One of the lot, chest
nut gelding, was taken sick SO as to Sc
riously reduce his market value.
No satisfactory offer was made for
the invalid horse, and finally in
despair Nelson exchanged his geld
ing for colt he had never
seen. The latter upon delivery was
found to be thin and so ugly looking
that the new owner offered to sell him,
vainly. however, for $75. Finally the
colt grew we'll and improved so rapidly
that he soon showed remarkably
handy style of trotting. Being an ex-
pert horseman, Nelson discovered indi-
cations of unusual speed, and decided
to keep the colt for stock purposes. The
once-despised animal was the stallion
Young Rolfe, bred by Wesley P. Balch,
of Boston, who committed suicide
recently. In May, 1881, Nelson's mag
nlfcent bay mare Gretchen was mated
with Young Rolfe, and the following
year she produced Nelson, now the king
of stations.
Nelson is a bay, stands 1853 hands high,
has good head, finely chiseled face, full,
intelligent eye, medium sized, well
shaped and we'll set ears.

LAND DECISIONS.
Secretary Noble Decides Against Two
Los Angeles Men.

The San Francisco Chronicle of Satur-
day contains the following special dis
patch:
WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.-Secretary
Noble today denied the appeal of Will
lam C. Morgan, who is making home
stead entry in the Los Angeles district
which came in conflict with the South
ern Pacific grant, and whose application
was rejected by the land commissioner.
G. M. Wells made application for land
in the same district, also claimed by the
Southern Pacific, and it was rejected.
Secretary Noble dismissed Wells ap-
peal on the ground that it was prema-
ture, but without prejudice to the ap-
pellant, giving him the right to renew
the application at the proper time.

A DOCTORS REBUKE.
Immensely More Mischief than is Gen.
orally Suspected.

Dr.. King, the eminent medical writer, in a
learned disquisition on our national COM
plaint, constipation, says:-
The great quantity of cathartic pills, etc.
which are annually swallowed by the people of
this country has been productive of immensely
more mischief than is generally suspected.
True, the physic unloads the bowels, but In so
doing its action tends to diminish the tone of
the intestines; so that, instead of removing the
costiveness, it aggravates it, leaving the bowels
in more torpid condition.
Joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla was designed to
fill Just such contingency as the doctors ar
raignment anticipates, viz: instead of being a
powerful mineral purgative, it is a mild vege-
table laxative, that, owing to its solvent and
gentle stimulating properties, is SO certain re-
lief in constipation that it has been given away
to hundreds, not to be paid for unless it was OF
positive benefit. Itreplaces constipation almost
Immediately with natural easy habit, and is
so mild that, unlike drastic purgatives, 1t can
be taken indefinitely with perfect freedom and
safety.

STILL THEY COME.
A Chance for Marshal Gard to do Some
Work at San Diego.

1t appears from the San Diego papers
that the influx of Chinese from Lower
California to that port continues in
spite of the exclusion act. The Sun of
that city says: "Constables of this city
state that Chinese are continually land
ing on Point Iona from boats which
come up from Lower California, and
making their way to Morena, where
they take the cars for Los Angeles. No
effort is made to catch them by the local
officers, owing to the fact that no reward
or fee is paid by the government for
such services. The early activity in the
collectors office has now subsided and
altogether the Cinnamon are about as
free to go and come between here and
Mexico as are citizens of the United
States -

BEER AND BREAD.
To Get the Former on Sunday the Lat
ter Must Be Ordered.

The Sunday saloon closing ordinance
was generally observed yesterday by the
saloon-keepers. The beer halls, however,
kept open, and did a rushing business,
being crowded from morning until mid
night. At these places, in order to get
a drink, it was necessary to order with
it piece of bread and butter, or some
little kickshaw to simulate a meal.
The saloon-keepers feel very bitter at
this means of putting them to a disad-
vantage and defeating the law. They
claim that they are perfectly willing to
obey the ordinance, but that it should
be enforced on all. The bread and but
ter dodge is not to their taste.

Height of Cruelty.

Nervous women seldom receive the sympathy
they deserve While often The pictures of health,
they are constantly ailing. To withhold sym

cruelty. They have weak heart, causing

and hungry spells and finally swelling of
ankles, oppression, choking, smothcrng and
dropsy. Dr. Miles New Heart Cure is just the
thing for them For their nervousness, head

n Pioneers Experience With
HOUd'S SUrS0D0TiELG.


Hoods SGrsGpGTiEIG.
~ am pioneer in this county, having been
here 80 years. Four years ago my little son
Ellery became blood-poisoned by impure virus In
vaccination. His arm swelled terribly, causing
great agony; physicians said the arm must be
amputated, and even then his recovery would
be doubtful. One day read about blood puri-
fer, new to me, and was surprised to learn that It
was prepared by C. 1. Hood, with whom used to
90 to school In Chelsea, vt. I decided to have
my boy try Hoods Sarsaparilla, and was much
gratifed when 1t seemed to help him. He con-
tinued to grew better as we gave him the Sarsa-
parilla, and having used bottles is now entirely
cured. As Hoods Sarsaparilla has accomplished
such wonderful results, recommend 1t all pos
sibly can" JEROME M. SLEEPER, Upper Lake,
Lake Co., Cal.
The City Treasurer
OF Lowell, Mass, says: "Ihe above is from my
brother, whose signature recognized. am also
glad to testify to the excellence of Hoods Sarsa-
parila, and to say that C. I. Hood & Co. are con-
sidered one of the most reliable firms in New

STRUCK 1T RICH.
The First Important Silver Discovery in
Wyoming.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., Dec. 14.-Wyoming's
first rich silver strike is reported from
the mine of State Senator Chatterton,
near Saratoga. The manager sends
word that at $50 feet in the tunnel, they
uncovered six-foot vein of silver ore,
and that assays gave not less than 5000
to the ton. This mine is across the
Platte river from Bush creek, where
gold finds have been made, and the re-
port apparently bears out the story
that the mountains of Southern Carbon
county are rich in mineral as the range
continues into Colorado.
