A Folsom Convict's Novel and Futile
Attempt to Escape.
When the lookup hour arrived at the
Folsom Prison on Wednesday evening.
and the officers took their daily account
of stock" a convict named Morton was
missing.
High and low the officers hunted for
the absentee all that night, and circle of
bontires were kept burning about the
grounds, but nobody caught sight of
Morton until yesterday morning. when
Captain Murphy happened to think of an
old engine-bOiler that stood in the quarry.
He would have built fire under Il, lust
for luck, but there was no water in it, so
he unscrewed the top off the manhole and
looked in. There was Morton all curled
up and as safe as if he had been locked
up in his cell.
1t seems he crept into the boiler as the
guard were changing off, but the fellow
who helped him in his attempt to gain
liberty got the cover on too tight, and
Morton was corked UP SO effectually that
he couldn't get out.

THE OPEN-AIR CONCERT.
The Foresters and Citizens Turn Out
in Crowds Last Night.

The Foresters and Citizens Turn Out
in Crowds Last Night
The attendance at the open-air concert
at the Plaza last night was said by many
of the regular goers to have been one of
the largest ever seen.
The night was warmer than had been
anticipated. and it was taken advantage
of by many lovers of music and prom
enading. An unceasing stream, passing
in both directions, filled the walks
around the Plaza and those running
through it, and the grass was covered
with groups standing, sitting or lying on
the ground. A gentleman remarked that
many a one would in day or two be
wondering where in the world he or she
could have caught such a cold, forgetting
that lying on the ground, wet with recent
rain, is hardly conducive to health.
The Hussar Band, led by Professor
Franz, played some very fine numbers,
and were the recipients of many compli-
ments from the visitors, who often ex-
pressed their envy of the enjoyment by
Sacramentans of these summer concerts.

ADJUSTMENTS.

The Boston Howard Athenseum Com
pany appears at the Metropolitan
Therter this and Tomorrow evenings and
at matinee Saturday afternoon. The
programme being long, though rapid.
the curtain will rise each evening AT 8
O'Clock sharp, and in the afternoon at 2
precisely. The troupe is one of the
largest and best specially companies ever
brought here, ii we are to believe the
press Of cities where the combination has
appeared. For instance the Los Angeles
Tunes of the 18th instant said; ''It han
pens in this case that the name is not the
biggest part OF the show, as sometimes
occurs; on the contrary, it is one of the
very best entertainments OF the wanda
vile kind ever given here, and though
the promises were lavish on the bills.
they were every one kept to the letter
The house was full of apprecia-
ton, double, triple and quadrliple en-
cores being the rule throughout the even
ing"
The numbers promised are the Dixon
brothers, clowns and clever musicians
introducing several novelties; OBrien
and Carroll in black-face songs and
drollerles; Bertoldi, the female equilib-
rlst and hand and jaw balancer, who. we
are told by all the critics, is the chief of
all In her line. One paper speaks of her
accomplished sinuosity," her "undu-
lating, plant and perfect poise." An
other declares that in balancing on hands
and by strength of her teeth and Jaw as
she poises on the point of rod held in
her mouth she exceeds any performer of
that order ever on any stage. Next in
the list is Fulgora in a novel and une-
Qualed change act; James and Lucy Alli-
son IN dances and songs; Kara, a skilled
juggler, whose claims challenge those of
the greatest; Melville and Stetson, fine
song and mimetic comedians; viii II.
Fox, eccentric pianist, and finally Leroy,
the Belgian conjurer, with the new illu-
sion, 1.-The Three Graces," feat that he
alone does and claimed to be more mys-
terious than anything that has preceded

cessful engagement in San Francisco at

A good attendance was present at the
meeting of the Ladies' Auxiliary to the
Industrial Association last evening, which
was held at the office of Justice w. A.
Henry on l street.
The Judge had his office in apple-pie
order for the occasion and had it taste

profusion. AT the back of the seat occu-
pied by the Chairman was large banner
inscribed with the conspicuous motto
and lines following:

were told,
The men would awaken, their plans would
unfold.
And sure enough,
The silurian came down like q snail, to the
fold,
And at last gave note for a tax on his gold.
The genial Judge was Outside Guard
during the evening, and ushered most of
the ladies to seats upon their arrival.

When the case of John Anderson
against Hugh Casey for $4,000 damages
for false Imprisonment was called in
Judge Johnson's court yesterday the lat

the ground that Casey was too sick to ap-

granted.
1t will be remembered that last Janu-

plant made by Casey charging him with
having obtained goods by false pretenses,
namely, in buying barrel of whisky on
credit on the representation that he was
conducting a saloon at Franklin, whereas
1t was claimed he had sold out his interest
therein.
Anderson was arrested and kept in iail
couple of days. when he paid Casey
what he owed him and was discharged.
he then began .suitfor damages for false
imprisonment, as stated.

Chinese Registration,

EDS. RECoRD-UNIoN l would like to
ask the following question; Now that
the Geary law has been passed on by the
Supreme Court and found constitutional,
what relative position does citizen oc-
cupy who, in face of such finding, gives
preference to Chinese as against citizen
labor? Does not such citizen stand in
the same relationship to the Geary law as
does citizen caught in the act of receiv-
ing stolen goods, knowing the same to be
stolen?
AS the Chinese, having failed to regis
ter, have set the law at defiance, clearly
those giving them succor or in any way
favoring them show by such action that
they also oppose the law, and thereby
give a precedent to the Administration
that will have the effect in strengthening
the President in his course of opposition
to the same, by reason of the pronounced
opposition of the people of this coast in
their attitude on the subject. Yours,

SOLI0 SuJS InNeHIIOtlSs
EDS. RECORD UNION: I see that some
newspapers persist in using the word
''electrocute'' to designate an execution
by electricity. If "cute" means to kill,
why not abolish the term hanging" and
call it 'ropecute?' That would be just
as good a word as 'electrocute." If not
quite so euphonious.
Where they execute criminals by shoot
ing, as in Mexico, "guncute" could be
used; and in France, where the guillo-
tine is employed to execute murderers, it
might be called ''chop-the-he -off-cute." !"

About Dogs and Brutes.
EDS. RECoRD-UNIoN: A contributor to
the Bee, signing himself Taxpayer"
congratulates that paper upon its DISPOSE
ton to offer reward to dog poisoners,
and says, in his remarkable letter, that
the man who poisons dog is public
benefactor.
1 think the history of all civilized ma
tions, and the best instincts of humanity,
attest that the expounder of such an
abominable principle is an earthly misflt
anu SHOuAu Oe IoAoSdLeO W SOIuo mOT6
ethereal realm.
If Taxpayer would think more and
write less he might be more of public
benefactor than he now is, and at the
same time deduce the knowledge that we
do not worship dogs, as the benighted
heather worship animals, but for their
long years of faithful service to man.
Certain instincts they possess are infin-
itely more to be admired than those of a
dog-poisoner. Humanity likes dogs.
Ii put to a public vote in this or any
other civilized country, it is safe to say
mankind would vote down the dog
poisoner as brute, and elevate above
him-in all that is commendable-the
dog.
'The love of mankind generally for
the (worthless) brutes' is not "some-
thing that passeth Understandings" but is
something to be commended and ad-
mired in the average man.
If Taxpayers" admiration for the
writings of Ambrose Bierce has bred
within him the instincts he expounds, he
should renounce Bierce for the dog, and
study him. even when he is retrieving "a
dead hen from q sewer" He will then
get nearer God and nature, and, if at all
susceptible, will profit thereby.
