Judge Davis, of Marysville, occupied

after which Mrs. Gillig was called to the
witness-stand. Her examination occu-

Mrs. Gillig's testimony was given in
the same prompt and quiet manner that

police station, and she thoroughly con-

that she is one of the best witnesses they

for some time past she had been missing
various articles of jewelry and clothing,
and could not account for their mysteri-

recognized piece of her valuable hat
trimming on one of her maids hats.
Prior to this she had repeatedly asked
the maid if she knew anything about the
whereabouts of the articles, but the girl
disclaimed all knowledge of them. At
that time, however, Mrs. Gillig said she

They Nearly Scare Their Secretary Out
of a Years Growth.
There was a special meeting of the
Board of Directors of the Sacramento
Athletic Club last evening for
the purpose of hearing the report of the
committee appointed to get estimates on
new hand-ban court-and there was
suspiciously large attendance of athletes
in the gymnasium, who were lounging
about with apparently no object in view.
But the cause of it all leaked out imme-
diately after the close directors meeting.
By this time the crowd had congre-
gated in the reading-roon, and as the
directors filed out Of their room, Hon.
Jud. c. Brusie, Vice-President of the
club, suddenly turned upon Secretary A.
p. Booth, and with feigned austerity pro-
ceeded to read the '.riot act'' to the sur
prised Secretary. He called attention to
the countless occasions on which Mr..
Booth had exceeded his jurisdiction-in
his labors for the clubs welfare
and the club proposed to show
its condemnation of such proceedings.
I'VE have congregated here tonight,
Mr.. Booth,' concluded the speaker,
''to hear what explanation you can offer
for your conduct. It's embarrassing, of
course, and as you will need something
to support yourself during the ordeal,
allow me to present you with this little
stick" With that Mr.. Brusie handed the
now quaking Secretary an elegant gold
scription: "a. p. Booth, February II,
1S9l-Preserted by the Sacramento Ath-
letic Club"
Mr.. Booths was the characteristic re-
ply of an athlete. Gentlemen said he,
Pm knocked out" He then managed
to collect enough words to thank the
members for the gift, and promise never
to part with it.
After the presentation President Clark
invited Mr.. Booth and the members into
one of the reception rooms, where q
bounteous lunch was awaiting them.

THEY WILL BE TRIED.
The Fugitive Witness I'm the Mollusk-
Dunn Case Caught.

When attorney Estabrook tried to get
his clients Mollusk and Dunn, the bat
terers, out of the clutches of the law by
the habeas corpus route recently, he
loudly protested against Police Judge
Cravens' method of postponing the trials
of the young men, and said that in this
manner he might keep them in custody
for twenty years. 1t will be remembered
that John Baldwin, the prosecuting wit
ness in the case, mysteriously disap-
peared when Mollusk and Dunn were to
be tried. and there was every indication
that the case had been fixed" out of
court.
But attorney Estabroolz's fears OF a
twenty-year term for his clients, are at
an end now. Mollusk and Dunn will be
tried shortly. Word was received from
Truckee yesterday that Constable Long
of that place had captured the fugitive
witness and was holding him for the
local authorities. An officer will go to
Truckee for Baldwin Immediately.

ADJUSTMENTS

"Lotta'' will appear at the Metropoli-
tan Theater tonight in the play,
''Musette," written for her. We have
ment of this creator and leader in the
soubrette star line of acting, that it is not
necessary to add much. Lotta is so
widely known such prime favorite, and
has such an army OF friends, that her en-
gagement is certain to be successful. Old
Californians will go to see the iavorite of
years ago, and new Californians will at
tend to see what the little woman is like,
over whom the old Californians glow
with enthusiasm. Lotta's company is
said to be q thoroughly good one-it is
not probable that she would consent to
play with Indifferent support. Her dis
Nnctive personality, her unique imper-
SonationS, her perfectly unaffected man
ner, and the charm OF her method,
together with her human sympathy and
the closeness with which she gets to the
audiences and interests them in her, con-
stitute the forces that make Lotta an at
traction OH Whatever stage she appears.
Next Monday evening the Sacramento
Lecture Association introduces an un-
usual attraction in the person of Miss
Olof Krarer, native Of Greenland, who
will speak OF Esqiiimaux life. Miss
krarer IS little woman, being only forty
inches in hight, and is represented as
possessing great fascination of manner
The Toledo Blade says of her: "Miss Olof
Krarer, a little EsquimauX lady, and the
only one in the United States, gave de-
lightful and entertaining lecture at the
Washington-streetC Congregational Church
last evening to a large audience Miss
hrarer has been we'll educated. She
speaks pure and correct English, and is
lively and intelligent. She gives an en-
tersalning and instructive description of
the life OF her countrymen, their customs
and occupations. She also sings some
weird and sweet Icelandic songs"
''The Clemenceau Case' is announced
for production at the Metropolitan Thea

with Sybil Johnstone in the leading part,
