John Coming in from the South.

SAN ANTONIO, November 13-It is
claimed by the federal authorities along
the Rio Grande border that large numbers
of Cinnamon are crossing the river from
Mexico into the United States each week,
and that the custom officials are unable to
prevent this wholesale violation of the ex.
clusion act, owing TO lack OF
river guards. A great many OF
these Cinnamon are brought from the
City of Mexico and the southern States Of
the Republic by persons who make a bust
ness of smuggling them across the river at
so much per head A party of eighteen
Cinnamon arrived yesterday at Laredo
from an interior point of Mexico. They
intended 10 cross into the United States,
but learned that they were being watched
by custom officers, and so have not yet
made the attempt.

tain the exact amount of the stealings OF

The Expected Chinese Thugs Received
Due Warming.
If any Chinese highbinders left San
Francisco on Thursday for this city. as
was reported, they did not come through.
The Chinese here all knew that the police
were ordered to be at yesterday mornings
boat to receive them, and it was there
fore an easy matter to notify the tourists
at points along the river, so they could
get Off the boat and come struggling over
land INTO the city.
At all events, the fighters did not
come. Possibly none intended to come.
but the incident serves to call attention
10 the necessity for a reasonable degree of
secrecy IN police circles. No good de-
tectlve goes about carrying banner an
nouncing what he proposes to do, and
policemen would be able TO do much
more effective work by keeping their
own cOunSelS.
There are indications that the China
town war is liable to break out again be-
fore long. yesterday a number of China
men were around buying pistols, the
biggest and best they could lind in the
stores.
An uptown China storekeeper yester-
day warned a policeman that he had
better keep little shy Of I street, as the
highbinders declare they will kill the first
officer that attempts TO interfere with
them.
This, of course, is all humbug. In
three hours after good citizen was killed
by these fellows there wouldn't be a
Chinaman left in all Chinatown-the
whole mob would be driven out of the
city, and the scoundrels know it very
well.

AN ACRE OF LAND.
How it Caused the Death of an ANA
dor Farmer.
A Feud of Many Years Standing-The
Slayer of Spray Again on Trial
For His Life.

a RECORD-UNION correspondent, writ
ing from San Andreas, Calaveras County,
gives the following account Of the killing
of man named Spray, in Amador
County two years ago. by a neighbor
named Thompson, the latter being now
on trial for the second time:
''This town is crowded with Amador
County people attending the trial OF
Thompson for the murder of Spray. The
trouble happened two years since, about
a mile from Buena Vista, in Jackson
Valley.
''N Yearly twenty years ago a survey of
the grant made some sixty acres of an
adjoining farm, that had been occupied
by neighbor under title from the grant.
Government land. 1t was at once filed
upon by these two parties, and the feud
grew out of the division of this land, and
especially regarding a triangle of an acre
or two between Thompson's house and
the road, and upon which the tragedy oc-
Cured.
SPRAY was cutting crop of alfalfa,
and had been driven Off by Thompson in
the morning, and returned in the after
noon with hired man to drive the team
while he scattered the punches of grass
left by the mower. Thompson stepped
out suddenly from behind barn, within
few rods OF where Spray was working,
arm and side, and the second the face and
head, proving Immediately fatal.
The case was tried in Jackson last
year, resulting in sentence of life inn
prisonment. a new trial was granted on
the ground of errors in the ruling OF the
court, and a change of venue taken to
Calaveras County.
The defense rests upon testimony to
prove that Spray had in his hands pis-
tol wrapped in a sleeve, and was trying
to fire 1t off through the sleeve when he
was killed.
The pistol was found about six or
eight feet distant from Sprays body
when the first parties arrived on the
scene of the shooting. There were five
eye-witnesses, but none nearer than
twenty rods. Thompson had two daugh-
ters lying at the point of death in the
house close by, at the time of the shoot
ing, and two neighboring ladies who were
visiting them are important witnesses as
to Thompson's actions Immediately after
the shooting.
About eighty witnesses have been
summoned. Most Of them are expected
to testify to the general character of the
parties for peace and quietness. In his
own neigborhood the feeling against the
accused seems very strong. Since the
tragedy he has lost almost all Of a COM

special session yesterday, President Tufts
presiding. After passing upon some cur
rent bills the question of physical culture

In behalf of the Sacramento Educa-
tlonal Association number of its mem
bers appeared, Mr.. Weinstock speaking
for them in response to inquiries.
The President of the board said be be-
Heved 1t to be the unanimous Judgment
of the directors that the experiment OF
physical culture, under the instruction OF
Miss Maelstrom, was an eminent success.
and that the Swedish system, as taught
by her, ought to be continued as of i'm
measurable benefit.
superintendent Hart expressed a like
opinion, and moved that the lady be en-
ployed for the school year at 81 900 salary.
The board was agreed, but Mr. Harri-
son desired the motion modified so that
she be employed by the month. at that
rate, subject to the contingency of the
board, ibecause of shortage Of funds.

than full school year.
This was agreed to. The vote was nm

preston of the board to the teacher that
II she would remain she would be elected

G. Ii. Gilman appeared before the board
relative to the disciplining OF his son on

Mr.. Gilman presented a letter ad

complaint. He said he only wanted tC

He proposed to abide by them, and was
not of rebellious temper.
Superintendent Hart said the lad had

Director Sherburn wanted complaint.
and then notice to the teacher, before he
would consider the matter. He thought

it was ordered filed for consideration at
the regular meeting, and the board adj
