RACE TRACK, SHEEPSHEAD BAY,
June 26.-The weather was decidedly
mean at the track to-day. A cold.
searching east wind, accompanied by
driving rain, made the few thousand
spectators keep well under cover
throughout the afternoon.
Profuse scratching did not tend to i'm
prove the programme any, and the sport
bade fair to be rather tame and uninter-
esting. The track was a quagmire, fet-
lock deep in mud.
Wet days, as a rule, are bad ones for
the talent, and the racing started with
facer for them.
Dr. Hasbrouck was made an odds-on
favorite In the opening event, but was
badly beaten. He never seemed able to
extend himself in the slippery going. and
finished poor fourth.

just right. He went out In front and

Saragassa to die. This he did at the

abled to win easily from Kilkenny who
also passed the staggering Saragassa.
Kilkenny was favorite. Count was also
heavily played. while Mars, though sec

AT GRAHAM'S GROVE.
Farmers and Their Families Have a
Day in the Woods.
The Annual Picnic of the Grangers on
Saturday-LarGe Attendance
and a Lovely Day.

The farmers, their wives, sons and
daughters had delightful days outing
on Saturday at Grahanl's Grove, the oc-
casion being the annual reunion and pic
mic of the several grange organizations of
the county.
a more charming spring day for such
an event could not have been desired. 1t
was the first warm day of the season, and
little warmth is necessary to the success
of picnic.
There were people present from every
part of the county. AT very early hour
in the morning there was great stir
among the farmers. Housewives were
preparing breakfasts and putting the
finishing touches on the big lunch
baskets that had been partially prepared
over night, while the country bellies hur-
riedly put on the finishing touches to
their picnic gowns and hats.
The sun had not climbed very high
above the snow-capped peaks OF the
Sierra Nevada before the roads in all di-
rections were lined with farmers, covered
wagons, carriages, buggies and carts, all
travelling toward the Changers Mecca.
The $40 train from this city also carried
to the grove scores of people who always
attend the Changers picnics, and many
more went out on the 1910 train. Before
the noon hour there were several thou
sand people on the ground.
The grove was in excellent condition,
and the scene was a picturesque one,
with groups of joyous people represent
ing three, and even four, generations
scattered about under the outrageous
oaks partaking of their picnic lunches,
while the woods were made musical with
the ShnntG and l1nOhrnr of tho
younger pleasure seekers.
The dancing platform was crowded
throughout the day, where good music
was furnished for the dancers. while
many people engaged in ball-playing and
other games.
In the afternoon number of foot races
took place, but the programme was not
carried out, chiefly because the crowd
thronged over the ropes stretched to
mark the track and interfered with the
sport.
The races that were run were as follows:
First race-For boys under years of
age; Elma Davis first, Eddie Doty sec
ond.
Second race-For boys under 10 years:
Burt Lowell first, Andy Valley second.
Third race-Girls under years; Flor
ence Carpenter first, BERTHE Street and
Ellie Stilson tieing for second.
Fourth race-Girls unoer II years: first,
Emma france: second. Anne Mason.
Fifth race-Boys under ii years: first,
7. \. Gallagen; second, Andy Valley.
Sixth race-Boys under Is years; first.
Joe Pickett; second, LOUIS Witt
Seventh race-Girls under Is years;
first, Mamie Nichols; second, Jessie JEFF
ferson.
Married ladies' race-First, Mrs. r.
May; second, Mrs. Minnie Baker.
The old mems race was won by w. A.
Simmons.
1t was late in the evening before the
crowd began to dlsperse, and the train
leaving Elk Grove was crowded with
people returning to this city.

Schnerr Wants the Profits of His Busi-

Constant Schnerr has filed a complaint
IN the Superior Court against Bernard
McGinty and Walter Smith, praying for
an injunction to issue against them.
The complaint recites that the plaintiff
has been for some time engaged in man
utacturlng and selling preparation with
registered trade mark, called "Sarsapa-
rilla, Iron and Vichy Water" and that
the defendants have within month past
commenced selling a preparation called
by them ''Sarsaparilla, Iron and Nichy,"
with intent to divert from the plaintiff
the business in such preparation that he
had built up.
1t also AYERS that the plaintiff has built
up good trade in the manufacture and
sale OF preparation with trade mark,
California Orange Cider, Made From
Riverside Oranges with a vignette of Il
basket of fruit and yellow label.
The defendants, plaintiff alleges, have
copyrighted label precisely similar in
color, words, type and vignette, with in
tent to deprive him of his business and
deceive the public. He therefore prays
for an injunction to issue restraining
them from the further manufacture or
sale OF these preparations and for judg-
ment in his favor for 81, 900 damages.
Judge Catlln issued writ Of iniunc-
ton as prayed for.

Long Illness.
The death of Frank P. Swift, which oc-
Cured on Saturday morning at his home
on NJ street, was not unexpected. For
about two months he had been confined
10 his bed with pneumonia and its Sc
quence. quick consumption.
Mr.. Swift was one OF the oldest resi-
dents OF the city, and for upward of
twenty years past had been one of the
Sonstables here. He came to Sacramento
from Massachusetts in 1850, and for
several years he was engaged in
steamboating between this city and San
FRANCISCO. In May, 1854, he met with an
accident which incapacitated him for
manual labor of any kind and forced him
10 seek other means of livelihood. While
engaged in olling the machinery on the
steamer Pearl the engines were started
ana one OF his arms was SO badly crushed
that amputatIon was necessary.
For several years thereafter Mr.. Swift
was engaged in the saloon business on
front street, which he abandoned in 1872
TO accept the office of Constable, which
latter calling he followed until his death.
Deceased was very active man up to
the time he lost his arm, and always took
deep interest in fire department mat
ters. lie was a member of the Exempt
flfemen's Association, and as soon as
his death occurred the fire-beli was tolled
IN his honor. He was also member of the
knights Of Honor, the Knights and La
dies OF Honor and the United Workmen.
MIR. Swift was man of generous ma
Cufe and had many warm friends in the
community. His family consists of his
wife, three sons, Frank q. D., Desmond,
and William, and one daughter, Miss
Julia \. swift. The funeral will take
place at 2:30 o'clock this afternoon from

Mrs. Graham then intInated that suit

did pot get scared at the threat.
On the contrary, he told Mrs. Graham
that if her husband would tarry here a

made by Sheriff up in Washington by
which the desired free transportation
would be secured.
Graham did not himself call at the

The Trustees VIII Open Bids for the
Work Tomorrow.
Tomorrow The City Trustees will open
bids for paving X street with bituminous
rock. They should see that whoever
does the work it shall be done
properly, both as regards the quality of
the material and the manner of laying
along and between the car rails.
There should be no ridges in the mid
die of each trackway, as on Tenth street.
The pavement there should be flat, with
the exception of just enough room for the
wheel flanges to run in. Then big ponds
of water could not lie between the rails to
finally find its way down to the ties and
stringers, causing the track to settle in
spots.
The people who are to pay the tax
should have good work done for their
money, and it will behoove them to keep
an eye on the job as it progresses.
