The methods adopted by many of our

vored one. OF course, everybody knows
that the Executive Committee has de-
cided not to have fireworks-that is, any

say unless you give us fireworks.
Wouldn't give cent for Fourth of July
without red fire and rockets.''
The ll-aTound-to-mOrrow men are as
numerous as ever, and they are never in
tomorrow when the committee drops in.
Then there are those who want special
features, and want others dropped out.
For instance:
'Going to haye those Horribles ?" asked
a J-street retailer yesterday.
Yep" replied the committeeman.

On the next block another retailer had
his say.

''Oh, soldiers, music, enthusiasm, and
it has been suggested that we have the

airs.n

kid shows. It's a pretty how-do-you-d do
when a parade can't be given without

that settles it,"
To Judge Van Fleet belongs the credit
of getting out of the dilemma the easiest.

EXCITING SCENES.
Various Runaways Occur, But Nobody
Gets Injured.

Gets Injured.
Yesterday John T. Cardwelrs horse
took fright at Eighth and streets, and
dashed down Eighth with buggy flying
at his heels. McFarland's two horses
and express wagon were standing on
Eighth street near X, and the horses took
fright and ran off, demolishing a buggy
occupied by young man named Slater,
and also collided witha buggy containing
two ladies, breaking one of the latter
vehicles shafts. The buggy-horse was
stopped before It could get under way.
CardwelPs horse next collided with
Uncle Sans letter-boX at Eighth and L,
streets. and took it aboard and landed it
at the alley, where the buggy also dropped
q wheel.
The runaway next collided with the
wagon of a Chinese vegetable peddler and
clipped off a rear wheel The Cardwell
horse continued on to NJ street and
around the block to where it had de-
molished the letter-box, and there the
buggy was turned bottom-side up i'm a
badly shattered condition. The horse
was caught, and found to be uniniured.
For about five minutes the streets
seemed to be filled with runaway teams
and smashed vehicles.
1t was about the liveliest affair of the
kind that had occurred since the sem
sational stampede caused on K street
| many years ago, when Montgomery
Queens circus and menagery, with a
train of elephants, paraded through the
| city. On that occasion there were thirteen
runaways all caused by one team taking
| fright at the elephants.
The most sensational feature, however,
was the running away ofthe twelve horses
attached to the circus band-wagon. The
driver piloted his frantic horses straight
| out to the suburbs, where one of them
was thrown and the team brought to a
standstill.

WHIFAKER'S Woe.
He Is Carting 1t Back With Him to
Dakota.
A Tenderfoot Who Thought He Was
Buying Home for Himself
and Family.

| Two or three days ago disguised man
left this county, with all his household
goods and gods land a claim for $3.50
against j. A. Parker), for his old home
on the plains of Dakota. 1t was Gay
lord Whitaker, and he was not only dis
gusted with his brief experience i'll Cali
| fornia, but down-hearted and despond-
ent.
He started with his family by wagon,
intending to cross the deserts and mount
| aims ere the snow flies in the fall, pro-
vided his horses and wagon hold out.
Whitaker is the same person who some
| months ago caused the arrest of J. A.
Parker on a charge Of fraud, alleging that
Parker had sold to him a forty-acre tract
of land near the Cosumnes River for
81, $50, on which he had paid $50 in cash,
but had afterward learned that Parker
could not give him deed to the prop
erty, as it had previously been decided to
another party.
The case was tried in Justice Henry's
court, and it was shown that Parker had
mortgaged the land to James BithelI, and
then sold it to a Mrs. Fields, subject to
| the mortgage.
When Bithell wanted his money he
I,
and obtained a decree directing the
property to be sold on the 18th of April
last. In the meantime Mrs. Fields
abandoned the property and left for parts
unknown. Parker sought counsel, stat
ing that he had an opportunity to sell the
land to another party (Whitaker). He
was advised to let the mortgage be fore
! closed and to regain title in his own
name.
Pending this result he sold the property
| to Whitaker for the sum named, giving,
instead of deed, written agreement to
the effect that if he should not be able to
| pass clear title to the latter, he (Parker)
would repay the $3.50 received from
Whitaker toward the purchase price.
The charge Of fraud was not sustained
! by the evidence, and Justice Henry dis
! missed the case. In doing so he informed
! Whitaker that his proper remedy would
! be civil suit against Parker for the re-
covery of the $3.50 paid him on the
! property, provided Parker should fail to
give him a clear title within reasonable
| time.
AS a claim against Parker was not OF
any value, the probability is that his
| patience died ont while waiting for re-
dress, and that he lost faith in California
and its people because he had once been
| victimiZed.

ger Ginsberg's Head.
The baseball cranks will have some
thing interesting to discuss when they
hear the latest explosion in connection
with the club in this city. It is no more
or less than a prospective rupture be-
tween Captain McCloskey and Sam Gins
berg, the proprietor of the team.
A RECoRD-UNIoN reporter got wind of
the disagreement yesterday, and, meeting
McCloskey on the street, asked him
about it.
You can just say this" said the big
Sacramento Captain, 1--WE are not going
to play ball unless Billy Works PLAYS
with us, and that's all there is about it !
The boys don't want him released, and
neither do l, SO the entire team has re-
solved to stand together on this propo-
sitiOn. They don't propose TO play in
Fridays game unless Works plays also.
They have not come to this conclusion at
jump, but after carefully thinking the
matter over, every man in the club has
expressed himself as being opposed to
Ginsberg's course in reducing expenses
by letting Works go. For myself, I don't
think he has done right. He picks out
the best hitter and best out-fielder in our
team, and tells me to release him. Now,
we can't afford to lose Works. Robinson
would nave him IN minute, and just
| imagine what weak spot would be left
in the field.
81 ought to have some little say myself
in running this team. l claimed to be
able to bring the pennant to Sacramento
at the seasons close, but l certainly can
not if am hampered in this way. If we
let Works go, we may strike q losing
gait, and then l will be called up to show
why my club cannot hold up it's end in
| the League race. 1t is not right, and I
am satisfied that the people who study
me and the boys. They have certainly
set their feet down and determined not to
play on Friday unless Works is in his

1t is reported that doves are being shot

engaged in shooting them should reflect
that the open season does not commence
until July 1st.
Last year the county ordinance pro-

is that some persons have overlooked the
fact that the last Legislature advanced the
date to the 1st of July.
Several prominent citizens are men

This is too much like the old style of

TO have influential friends, for in the past
it has been common occurrence to have

object, but when that method fails threats
