Anoush Lost to Hfs Friends' Sight He
II to Memory Dear.
Il. thompson, formerly bartender at
sne WINDSOR hotel. on Commercial street,
ieit Town Monday night, and at close fig
uirs TOOK $4OO OF other peoples money
thompson came to Seattle from Van.
couser, b. O.. last April and took up his
aoooe at the Windsor hotel. Later he be-
came the bartender. Two weeks ago he
stopped work and said he was going to
opch SALOON on Columbia
street. The place designated was
one door below "The Tony Faust"
saloon. He spoke to a carpenter about fix
ing the place and said there would be
about $lOO in the job. Yesterday his
clothes were gone from his room at the
windsor and he was nowhere to be found.
ms creditors then began to appear. J. L.
Myers, OF the Yakima market. corner of
MAIN street and Railroad avenue, is said
20 nave signed a note with Thompson for
$ooo last Tuesday which Thompson dis
counted at one of the banks. On Satur-
oay ne withdrew the money with the ex-
ception OF $l.5O. Thompson asked Myers
men to cash a $40 check on Saturday, but
they refused. BILLY" Sutherland, pro-
prietor Of the Commercial saloon, cashed
q check for $40 and is out that amount.
thompson tried to catch John Ea-
gan, of the Bureau saloon, for
$40, but failed, as Mr.. Eagan knew his
man. Ole Olsen, tailor, had about SIS
Que him and was very angry at Thomp-
sons disappearance. The bartender at
the Windsor loaned him S. but says he
VIII call it square; the house itself has
about 81 so due on room rent.
1t was reported that Thompson had run
away with Mrs. McAvoy, but the facts
OF the case are he sent to Vancouver for
her some time ago and borrowed $40 from
John Eagan, of the Bureau saloon, to pay
her fare. Thompson paid the debt in 81
instruments. No one appears to know
where he has gone. but Vancouver has
been suggested as the point.

not knowing that he was in such a critical
condition. She had been told that he was
injured, but not so seriously, and when
she arrived here yesterday he was dead.
The poor woman was greatly affected by
the news, and it is feared the shock may
have more serious consequences before she
gets over it. Smith was about 80 years of
age and leaves no children.
The body was taken to the Seattle Un-
dertaking rooms and will be taken over to
Sidney today for interment.

OUR evening contemporary, the Bee,
severely criticises Trustees Conklin and
Green for voting yesterday to grant the
G-street franchise to the Central Com
pany. This is unjust. Those gentlemen
simply did what they believed to be their
duty, and are entitled to credit for having
the courage of their convictions. It is
their duty to look out for the interests OF
the city and not be swayed by the inter-
ests of warning corporations. The fran
chise granted will enable the Central
Company to complete it's system. Now
let the Trustees grant the Folsom Water
Power Company a franchise for another
complete system, and when it is built
Sacramento will have the best street-car
service in the State.

IT is now reported that Mr.. Stanhope's
attempt to take the cholera will fail, be-
cause his digestion is so sound. He is the
baceilli at the Pasteur Institute, Paris,
and went to Hamburg to ''catch" the
pest if possible. But since his stomach
is so strong that it resists and kills the
comma bacillus, the experiment made
by this heroic man fails. 1t will be nee
essary now to find some man with
indigestion as standing complaint, who
will be willing to assume the risk Mr..
Stanhope took on, in the interest of the
medical science and humanity.

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
to $40 per Acre.

The Pacific Improvement Company has re-
Gently purchased twelve thousand ceres of
land In the heart Of Tehama County, for the
purpose of promoting subdivision and settle
ment. This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land, to
land OF fair average quality, and is offered at
from $40 to $40 per acre, in subdivisions of
40, 80, 40, 160 and $50 acres.
The terms upon which these lands are offered
are especially attractive. They will be sold in
subdivisions, as above indicated, by the pay
ment of interest only for three years at which
time the purchaser can begin the payment of
principal by paying the first of five equal an
nual fnstallments. Thus no part of the prin-
clpal is to be paid for three years. and then
Inc purchaser Is to have five years in which to
pay hYe equal annual installments with in
terest at the rate of 7 per cent. per annum,
making payments extending over a period of
eight years. Intending purchasers are as
sured that this is an opportunity to purchase
land OF fair average quality at $40 per acre.
and good agricultural land at $50 an acre,
with other grades of land at prices to CORE
spond between these figures
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming, and es-
pecially adapted for fruit-growing cannot be
had in California for less than from $50 to
800 an acre. An examination of the land
subject OF this advertisement will prove to
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land at $40
an acre, and for qualities grading down to fair
agricultural land at $40 an acre, on terms of
payment which should make the disposition
Of these lands to actual settlers result easy of
accomplishment.
The primary object Of the purchase of this
body of land was the breaking up of large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry.

DIR. THOMAS DIXON has fired some red
hot shot into the camp Of Tammany He
charges that its officials have not proved
efficient in the Health Department. and
that the whole nation is exposed to the
menace of the cholera because a few pot
house politicians rule in New York City.
His exclamation against the unchecked
importing Of the ruff-scuff, criminals and
anarchists of Europe voices the general
sentiment. The people demand that the
bars shall be put up higher and that
steamship gains in transporting steerage
passengers shall not be counted against
the need to put greater restriction upon
the incoming of the obnoxious classes.

PECULIAR ENGLISH RACE-TRACKs.
They are of all Shapes and Lengths
and IIma Cuts No Eioure.


There are some peculiar race-tracks in
this country, but England has scarcely
two alike. There are few which are
shaped alike or of the same lenghth, va
rying from less than q mile to four miles
one furlong, lao yards, which was the
length of the Beacon course at Newman
ket, so famous in the old days of English
racing. In a description of the race
courses at ninety-nine places in Eng
land and Scotland there are only eleven
which are called a mile, two or three of
which are said to be an exact" mile.
The number of places do not snow the
true number OF courses, as at Newman
ket there are some thirty, but that, of
course, means that several of them are
portions of the Beacon. Here are the
shapes and dimensions OF some OF the
other courses:
Newton, q triangular course of about
one mile and quarter, with strong
hill and straight, HAT run-in of about
half mile.
Oswestry, in form resembling an i'll
Shapen figure of s, and only few yards
short OF two miles, ending III a straight
! run-in OF nearly half a mile, on gentle
ascent.
Newcastle is composed of four unequal
SIDES and nearly approaching to TRAN
gle, once round, or HOtSDur course,
measured eight yards from the inside
ditch, being j, l62 yards. The L. \. {.
(two-year-old coursel is six furiongs, and
the mile, two-mile and large rcoarseS are
exactly Ofthe stated distances. There are
hills III different parts, a Straight running
on the west side Of 400 yards, on the south
side OF 54} yards, and on the east side of
740 yards, and on the north to the win
ming post of $50 yards.
! Ascot, a circular course short of two
miles by sixty-siX yards, the first half
nearly all on the descent, and the re-
mainder, which is called the old mile, up
hill the greater part Of the way.
! Bianford, the Cup course, is two miles,
starting at the winning chain, running
nearly mile straight and with good
! turn-back over the same ground.
! Doncaster, where the st. Leger is run,
is a round course of about one mile, seven
furlongs and seventy yards. The st.
Ledger course is one mile six furlongs
and 1872 yards.
EPSON, the old or Cup course, is two
miles, OF an irregular circular form, the
first mile up hill. The new Derby course
is exactly a mile and half, and some
what in the shape of a horseshoe, the last
half mile being straight. The first half
mile Is on the ascent, the next third Of Il
miie level, the bend into the straight run
home and until within the distance OH
the descent, and the remainder on the
rise.
Stockbridge is nearly a round course.
somewhat hilly. with a straight run-in of
nearly three-quarters; there is also
straight mile.
Canterbury is shaped like a cricket bat,
! being two miles out and i'll, with severe
hill from the distance home.
