Wheelmen Could Not Use the Track
Because of Its Condition.
The Capital City WheeImen's Club
announced that number of its mem bers
would contest at Agricultural Park yes
terday for medals to be given to those
making record of mile in less than
three minutes, with one bar added for
every five seconds added.
The management of the Park, how
ever, has narrowed the track and almost
flooded it near the entrance, so that it
was impossible to make any time, and
the race is oil. 1t is probable that there
will be no more events in the club until
the october meeting, unless it should be
determined to have one during the Stat g
Fair.
The Dixon wheelmen have secured
control of the half mile track there and
propose to have racing meet there on
September 23d. open to all the State. The
fast "bikers' from San Francisco and
other places expect to be there and about
twenty of the Capital City Club intend to
60 down and try their metal, preparatory
TO the October meet in this city,
The members Of the athletic club who
intend to take part in the Circus Maxi
mess were out in force at the Park yes-
terday morning practicing their different

Question:" signed "a Mother" In this
article she says that at a concert given on
the previous Sunday great mum ber of
women and girls were seen to enter the
ladles' entrance to saloons. or doors TO

very pathetic manner, of the possi-
ollltles OF women to rise TO the loftiest
nights of excellence" and likewise of
the git given woman of having keen
sensibIlity and strength of feeling, etc.
But IN this article the lady signing her.

Is writing about. Does she mean to in
slnuate that any well-brought-up girl or
woman can be seen to enter the places

enough that the better class of women
ana girls are above being seen in dis
reputable and doubtful places of any
klnd, and she should know, if she is a
resident of Sacramento, that the class
which openly visit the ladies' entrances

tnere are any private entrances or not,
all the same.
II Mother" is really sincere in her eff
forts to stop the crying evil OF sending 50
many women and girls to perdition, why
dOes she not 60 10 the root of the evil and
counsel the mothers of these girls to keep
their daughters under their own personal
observation, and not allow them at all
hours III the day and night to be on the
street and at dance halls unaccompanied
by any proper guardian.
The trouble in the present age is this
young girls are not kept strict enough at
home. They are but seldom instructed
in the mysteries of the art of housekeep-
ing. In most instances they are raised
by their mothers with the unexpressed
but false notion that they are too good to
work. The result is when their school
days are past they while away their
time reading pernicious books, and when
tired OF that they dress regardless of ex-
pense" and promenade the sidewalks for
the edlhcatlon of the male portion of the
community, who, for the want of any
employment, can be seen gracing the
street corners and hotel sidewalks. This
Is the result OF the lack Of proper train
ing OF our young, both girls and boys,
and we all know what idleness leads to.
Would it not be well for Mother to
compare cause and effect, and If she really
desires to benefit her sex and stop the
use Tor ladies' saloon entrances, advocate:
Flrst-Ihat mothers teach their girls
the secret OF cooking and keeping a home
III order.
Second-Impress on your daughters
minds that honest home work is not de-
grading, but elevating.
Ihlrd-Ieach your girls to dress and
live within the incomes of their protect
ors and natural supporters.
Fourth-Keep your daughters under
your own projecting eye, and under no
consideration allow Them to visit any
pnblic places unless you know they have
proper guardians, and by enforcing the
above rules Mother" will soon find that
her girls will be safe, and that no danger
exists for them, as far as saloon or any
other improper entrances are concerned.

WILLIAMS is SINKING.
The Victim of the Recent Stabbng
ARRAY May Die,
He Makes An Ante-Mortem Statement,
But Maintains That He Does Not
Know His AssaiIant's Name.

Joseph Williams, the ex-convict who
was stabbed during drunken row with
some companions several nights ago. is
in critical condition at the County Hos
pital, and it is thought that he will die.
The knife blade severed his intestines.
and the man is growing weaker every
hour.
Believing that he was a doomed man.
Williams sent word to the police station
Saturday night that he was willing to tell
all he knew about the atfray. 1t will be
remembered that on the night of the cut
ting, and since then, he refused stub
bornly to give the officers any informa-
ton whatever.
Chief of Police Rodgers, City Attorney
Post and Official Reporter Bing Brier
Immediately drove out to the hospital.
After all, Williams could tell the
officials but little more than they
know already. He said he did not
know what the name OF his assail-
ant was, other than that they called
him Barney" There were several of
them in the party he SAID. They had
been drinking all afternoon and con-
tinued their spree in the evening All
become considerably intoxicated. Will
Jams had bottle Of whisky with him,
and the row started over his refusing to
give 'Barney" the bottle. They growled
for quite awhile about it, and then went
into the alley between Front and Second,
l. and NJ streets to 'settle" the difficulty
Williams says they had only walked a
short distance into the alley when the
knife was thrust into his abdomen. He
declares that he knows of no reason for
the cutting other than that they were all
craZed with liquor.
DR.. q. a. White, the Superintendent of
the County Hospital, informed the
RECORD L MON last night that Williams
had rallied somewhat during the dav.
Still it is not thought that he will re-
cover.

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
to $50 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 $50 per acre. in subdivisions OF
40, so, 120, 100 and 32o acres.
The terms upon which these Ian ds 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 installments. Thus no part OF the prin
cipal is to be paid for three years, and then
the purchaser is to have five years in which to
pay five 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
sured that this is an opportunity to purchase
land of fair average quality at $40 per acre,
and good agricultural land at $40 an acre,
with other grades Of land at prices to CORE
Epond between these figures.
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming, and es-
pecially adapted for fruitgrowing cannot be
had in California for less than from $50 to
500 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 q 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
10 diligent husbandry.

dress VIM. H. MILLS,
