TO TRACK CRIMINALS.
Proposition to Use Bloodhounds L
Nevada County.

Proposition to Use Bloodhounds in
Nevada County.
Sheriff Dunster of Nevada County has
received a promise from the Supervisors
of that county to purchase two blood
hounds to be used in tracking criminals
through the mountains in that section,
and he has written to Alabama to learn
the cost of a couple of animals of that
kind.
The Transcript says it is believed that
with their aid highwaymen and other
criminals of the worst order who oper-
ate SO frequently in that county, and by
reason of the rugged topography and
sparsely peopled condition of the coun-
try have heretofore been able to escape in
the majority Of cases, can be trailed to
their lairs by the keen-scented hounds,
which are specially trained in Alabama
to do that kind of work.
These hounds would be specially use-
tul in trailing train -wreckers. If one or
more of them could have been put on the
track of the miscreants who wrecked the
train near Coltax the other night, there is
little doubt but that the fiends would
have been run down in few hours.

A telephone message from Warden
Aull last evening shows that the fellow
Mahan not only stuffed the Folsom
officer with pack of lies, but is liable to
get into the State Prison himself for
burglary.
Warden Aull says the true story re-
garding him is this: Mahan had been
employed in the mountains by a dairy
man named Page. He robbed his eln-
ployer of some clothing, pistol, etc., and
bid the things in the hills when he came
down from the mountains a few days
ago. AS soon as his thirty day term ex-
pires he will be prosecuted for burglary.
The fellow is a blewhard'' remarked
the Warden. she was never near the
prison. doesn't know anybody inside of
it; and that yarn he told to the officer was
all fake-he's been talking through his
hat, and he talked so much that he has
got himself into trouble for burglary"
Mahan gave also the names of Mona
han and Kelly.

FIELD TRIALS.

The Pacific Coast Club Selects Judges
for the Next Meeting.
The frost will soon be on the pumpkin,
and the corn in the shock, which will be
par excellence the season for quail-shoot-
ing.
Already the field trial men are moving
in the matter of preparing for the next
meeting in Kern County. The Execu-
tive Committee met in San Francisco
few days since and selected Robert Z.
Vandeyort Of Pasadena, w. c. Nelson of
Trenton, Tenn, and d. NJ. Pyle OF
Bakersfield IS judges. All Of the persons
named have acted as judges before and
given satisfaction.
The committee adopted rule requiring
handlers to keep their guns empty until
they were ordered by the judges to flush
and kill the birds. The purpose OF the new
rule is to prevent possible injury from
reckless shooting, and also to shut off the
the habit among jockeying handlers of
firing their guns whenever their dogs
seemed to be pointing, partly in the hope
of scoring point" on the judges card,
and partly in the hope of rendering the
opposing dog unsteady.
Those present at the Field Trial Clubs
meeting were: j. G. Edwards, c. n.

HAGGERTY'S CASE,
A Motion for a New Trial of the Case
VIII Be Made.

VIII Be Made.
John Haggerty, the old man who was
convicted of murder in the second degree
last week, for having killed his son, was
to have been sentenced. yesterday.
Haggerty's attorneys, however, gave
notice that they desired to move for new
trial, and the passing of sentence went
over until Friday next. The old mans
attorneys are Messrs. Anderson and
Bruner, and each of them has a special
plea to make to the court for a new trial.
Mr.. Anderson's point is that the verdict
of the jury was not voluntary one. as
the law demands; that one of the Jurors,
Mr.. Waite, after holding out for acquittal
for twenty-five hours, was coerced into
agreeing with the others.
Mr.. Burners ground for new trial is
based on the belief that Judge Van Fleet
erred in instructing the jury that de-
fendant in murder case who sets up in
sanity as an excuse, must prove abso-
lutely that he was insane. Mr. Bruner
declares that according to decision of
the Supreme Court in the case of the
People VS.. Bushton (S0th California re-
ports, it was clearly set forth that the ex-
cuse for the crime need only be proved
beyond reasonable doubt-not abso-
lutely.

Constable Burke of Folsom made an
important arrest on Monday. One John

digging a hole under the wall. He was
then adiudged by Justice Steele guilty of
carrying a concealed weapon and sem
fenced to thirty days in the County Jail.
