ABOUT TWO RINGS.
Varied Attractions at
Central Park.
Large Crowds Greet Sells 6 Rent
frow's Great Circus-An Ex-"
csIlent Performance.

The gigantic tent at Central Park could
not contain half the number who sought
admittance to Sells 81 Rentfraw's great
circus last night, and thousands were
turned away. Market street was packed
with people from Second street TO Eighth.
Not only were the sidewalks crowded, but
even the roadway was almost impossible.
and the streetcars had difficulty In forcing
a passage.
1t did not look much like hard times to
see the surginG crowds scrambling for the
ticket office, and when the bell finally rang
up the entrance of the equestrian tourna-
ment there were tier upon tier of specta-
tors, with as many more satisfied with
standing room. The spectators were mag
nificently entertained from the beginning
TO the end of the programme Every one
wore broad grin for two hours and then
went rome. still smiling.
That old-time favoritp, William Dutton.
the veteran bare back rider, received de-
served applause for his marvellous eques-
TRAN achievements. Dan Lester and Rich
ardson. the tn chief clowns, were primrd
with an assortment of new jokes and gage,
which they exploited to the general salts
faction.
The trapezs performances. juggling, bal
ancing and contortion feats were all excel
lent. Roman ladders, ground and lofty
tum bling and wire-walking followed in
quick succession, performances being
given simultaneously in the two large
rings.
But the interest eliminated In the horse
races. There were hippodrOme contests
and races between pony fOur-in-hands
Competing teams flew round and round
the ring. suggesting the most interesting
chapter in "Ben Hur."
The trick horses and elephants are all
we'll trained. and indeed there was not a
weak point in the entire performance. The
menagerie is large and includes many rare
animals.
The circus will he repea ted nightly at
Central Park until the 9th inst.

THE DYNAMITE TRACED.
1t Was Probably Stolen Months Ago
From a Camp.


1t is now believed by the police that the
ing was perpetrated by the men who tried
TO blow up the tug Ethel and Marion last
March. 1t is also believed that the ex-
pIosives used in each case were secured
from the same place, and that the dynamite
found in the satchel left at the Contra
clearinghouse was from the lot.
The attempt to destroy the tug proved
unsuccessful. 1t will be remembered that
a stick of dynamite was placed in the
engine-room during the night. evidently
with the expectation that when the fires
were lighted the heat or the motion Of the
machinery would cause it to explode. The
bomb was discovered. however. and taken
away. Soon after this was reported tine

the grading camp of Contractor Holmes
on the corner of Twenty-sixth and Doug

contractor reported that another attempt

lock, and in their haste to decamp they

saw. Detectives Cody and Egan
were detailed on the case. They
hunted high and low, but no trace
of the explosive could be found. For
some reason they suspected a union sailor
named Anderson, living in Berkeley. A
seach warrant was secured and his hous Sc
was carefully searched, but to no avail.
For time theimatter was allowed forrest.
Then came the mysterious stranger to the

hours later San Francisco was startled by
the deadly explosion in front of Curtin's
place. Several things were at once no.

clearinghouse was of the same make and
size as that which the thieves left behind
at Holmes grading camp when they made
the unsuccessful attempt at robbery. So
also were the saws found in the satchel
pronounced similar to that which was
left behind at this camp. Moreover, the
contractor says that the dynamite found

HIDDEN IN THE TANKS.
Mysterious Prisoner Kept From Sight
at Headquarters,

There is mysterious prisoner under az
rest at the old City Hall, and the police
are extremely Teticent regarding his iden-
tity. Two detectives took him in at l
o'clock on Friday morning. The man was
handcuffed; he was not booked" and he
was put in the tanks. Since then nothing
has been heard officially Of the prisoner.
One of the detectives at the time was work
ing on the dynamite case, and be then said
that the man whom he had brought in was
in some manner connected with the out
rage, and he added that the facts would be
told later.
Another mysterious arrest was made at

tectiYe, and this second prisoner was con-

the detective who arrested him, "and will

Sure enough be was. Late yesterday
afternoon the man arrested early IN the
morning was identified as the assailant of
General Barnes. But as to the other indi-
viduai-the one brought in early on Friday
morning-not word was said. When the
arrests were referred to both the detective
and his superior insisted upon speaking Of
only one. Many persons concluded there
fore that there had been some mistake
made regarding the dual capture.

from Stockton he was again sum-

out the information that the clerk had
seen the suspects and failed to recognize
them.
A reporter visited the Central lodging

Unjust Taxation.

1t is unjust to tax the stomach with
burthens that it cannot bear. Many
silly people thus tyrannize that faith
full servitor until it rebels and punish
es them as they deserve. Dyspepsia
is usually the child Of gastronomic
folly, but whether this or the natural
associate Of inherent feebleness from
childhood it is surely and pleasantly
remediable with Hostetters Stomach
Bitters, the finest and most highly
sanctioned gastric tonic in existence.
AS a result of the tone impaired to the
stomach, and the increased activity Of
its digestive and assimllative action,
insured by the persistent use Of this
benign inyigorant, general stamina is
augmented, the nerves strengthened
and tranquilized, and a tendency to
insomnia and hypochondriasis defeat
ed. Biliousness, chills and fever,
rheumatism and kidney troubles are
conquered by this admirable medi-
cine.
