MIND-READER SLATER.

He Runs Away from the Bay for Few
Hours Diversion.
John Slater, the celebIa ted mindreader,
or medium, or biologist, who created some
stir here few months ago, dropped into
town last evening.
A RECORD UNION reporter met him at the
Golden Eagle and inquired the nature OF
his visit. "Oh, just got tired of Frisco"
he said, land wanted few hours rest
Besides, there are some people here in Sac.
ramento who l was DESTROYS of seeing.
go home in the morning."
Mr.. Slater was in very amiable and
communicative mood, and talked freely OF
his various ventures and eccentric freaks,
of which much has been said of late.
Regarding his recent flight to the Sand
wish Islands, he said that he simply be-
came worn out from work, and, being
under contract to nobody, he took notion
that he wanted change, and boarded a
Honolulu steamer, although he was adver-
tised to appear in San Jose that same
night. He said he didn't like the way the
newspapers treated him the last time he
appeared in Sacramento but he didn't
care, and would appear here again some
time lust for the fun of it."
During the interview with the eccentric
man, who is certainly 'puzzler," he
knocked the reporter out by telling him
things, trivial for the most part, that he
believed no one else knew, and he retired
convinced that Slater, if not able to look
into ones mind, has knack of ascertain
ing ones thoughts that smacks of the

ranted the defendants being held on more
! serious charge.
Captain Lee thought that the facts in the
case had not been laid before the Court,
owing to the absence of the officers who
were present on the preceding evening and
had heard the statements of eye witnesses.
He suggested that, as the wounded man
was about to be removed to the County
Hospital, he be consulted in regard to the
nature of the complaint that should be
lodged agrinst Brown and Mathena.
Schaefer was visited, and the result was
that he swore TO complaint charging
Brown and Mathena with assault to MUIR
der. The men were arrested between and
3 OF clock, and will have to answer to some
thing more serious than mele battery.
Captain Lee said last night that some
rambling statement made by Schaefer in
the morning and others by persons who
were not familiar with the facts, had mis-
led the Court in the matter. At the time
the Court was in session no complaint had
been filed against Brown and Mathena, and
none present knew that the explanations
made by the defendants were not reliable.

hut little more care in preparing it for the
table would certainly make it more accept
able. The walters do not serve the vlctu-
ais as they should, and the dishwasher Is
not very particular about his work. Com
plant is heard on all sides, and the officers
have taken steps to see that the men are
better served and supplied. The first sub
ie,t that calls for their attention is cleanli-
ness.
Captain Hall is Officer of the Day to-day,
Lieutenant Kay acts as Officer of the
Guard and Lieutenant Sprague as Lieuten-
ant of the Guard. Lieutenant Plant is
making an excellent Adjutant, and in a
day or so will be able to discharge like a
veteran the duties SO suddenly thrust upon
him.
A large number of people from town
came out to the camp this evening and wit
messed the ceremonies of dress parade and
guard mount. The First Sergeants were
made 10 bring on their details twice, they
havin G signally failed in the first attempt.
Carpenters were at work all the after
noon building dancing platform in front
of headquarters, and this evening every
body who wanted to danced to their hearts
content. Quite number of visitors en-
joyed themselves, and all were unanimous
in the opinion that the camp will be more
of an attraction this year than its predeces-
sors were. The band will serenade the
guests at the Sea Beach Hotel this evening.

TOUGH CHARACTERS.

Four Men Arrested Under Suspicion of
Committing Crime.
AT about 2 o'clock Monday morning a
man who was asleep in the Plaza was
robbed of his watch and money. The mat
ter was reported to the police, and officers
Simmons and Stafford were detailed to
look into it. The officers have arrested
four hard Observation-Disclosures in town
whom they are confident committed this
robbery, as well as several other similar
crimes which have occurred within the
past fortnight
. Several ine Morocco pocket-books were
found upon them, which are believed to be
stolen property. One of these pocket-b books
has the name "a. F. Harmon" upon it,
and another has Frank Hartley, San
Francisco, July l, $780," inscribed upon
it.
When the men were being arrested. one
of them took black felt cap from his
pocket and tried to throw it away, but the
officers recovered it. The officers say that
such caps are used by garroters for the
purpose of disgusting themselves or chang
ing their appearance and identity if in
close quarters.

NOT A BURGLAR.
Alexander Stevenson Simply Disturbe
Mrs, Johnson's Peace.

Alexander Stevenson Simply Disturbed
Mrs. JOhnson's Peace.
The case of Alexander Stevenson, the
colored man charged with disturbing the
peace and burglary, was heard in the Pc.
lice Court yesterday.
The principal witness for the prosecution
was Mrs. Jennie Johnson, also colored
who lives on Third street, between NJ and
N. She testified that on Sunday afternoon
Stevenson boldly walked into the house
and wanted to talk with her. She ordered
him out, and he finally left, but soon re-
turned and tried to break in through the
window. Her husband happened along,
and the two had some words, after which
Stevenson drew revolver and discharged
it into the air. She admitted being &C.
quainted with Stevenson.
Upon the conclusion of Mrs. Johnson
testimony the City Attorney moved to dis
miss the charge of burglary against Ste
venson, as it was evident from her statement
that Stevenson had no burglarious inten-
tons. The charge of disturbing the peace,
however, he thought, would be easily
proved.
Ex-Judge G. G. Davis, Stevenson's attor.
ney, announced that his client pleaded
guilty to that charge.
Some more evidence was then taken in
order TO inform the Court as to the magni-
tude of Stevenson's offense, and upon its
conclusion the defendant was fined $50.

FOR casting an l1legai vote de Gets On
With Fine of SO.
George Fisher, who, on Monday, pleaded
guilty to charge of attempting TO vote
illegally at the recent Republican primary
election, appeared in the Police Court yes
terday for sentence. Fisher made touch
ing appeal for mercy. With tears in his
eyes he told of his wife and child vino
would be left helpless should he be sent
for long term to prison, and he promised
that if mercy were shown his form would
never darken Courtroom door again.
City Attorney Hart also spoke in behalf
of the prisoner. He said that as Fisher
was intoxicated and had only attempted to
cast an illegal vote, this community had
not been injured to any great extent.
Judge Buckley was inclined to be merci-
full, but warned Fisher to be very careful
in the future to avoid liquor on election
days. He then imposed fine of $40 upon

The Impaired Levee.

Engineers of much experience in reyet-
ment work say that the repair of the cave
in the levee at the foot of w street should
not be made with broken granite alone.
That may slide down and out if the bottom
is insecure; but if brush is mixed with the
heavy material it will hasten the accumu-
lation of deposits and thus tend to rapid
rebuilding of the face of the levee from the
foundation up to the surface.
