ARRESTED FOR MURDER
Committed at Huntsville, Tennessee,
Last October.
Mike Chambers, Employed on Farm
Near Brighton, Accused of
the Crime.

Mike Chambers. Is years of age, and
| employed as a farm hand by J. E. Camp.
near Brighton, was arrested on Tuesday
morning for murder committed in Scott
County, Tennessee.
The prisoner was very obstreperous,
and resisted arrest with all his force.
With the assistance ofthe Deputy Sheriff 5
brother-in-law, however, Chambers was
forced to submit, and was heavily mana
cled to prevent his escape. He was taken
to the County Jail, and will there remain
until the Sheriff from Tennessee arrives
armed with the requisite warrant and re-
! QUESTION papers.
Chambers, who has been travelling un-
der the assumed name of Julian Potter. is
charged with numbering one Fred letter
man at Huntsville, Tenn, on the Sth of
last November. He evaded arrest, and
finally wended his way into California
ana 10 the farm of Mr.. Camp, where he
mas been employed for the past six
weeks.
Inc police authorities of Scott County
| llnally heard of his appearance at the
camp ranch, and notified Sheriff O'Neil
by letter, also furnishing him with de-
! scrlptlon Of the alleged culprit and offer

When the officer addressed Chambers
yesterday by his first name he uuivered
All over, but finally recovering himself
ne denied all knowledge of the crime,
and said he was not the man wanted.
FROM the descriptions of him fur

ever, there can be no doubt but that he

tending TO show that he is the party

Mr.. Camp, who gave Chambers en-
pioyment, is said to believe him inno-
Sheriff O'Neil was notified by telegram
Yesterday that the Sheriff OF Scott
county is en- route here for the prisoner.
1he particulars of the arrest were
known to the RECoRD-UNIoN on Wednes-
Gay, put a request was made at the
oherl1ts office that no publicity be given
10 the matter until the Tennessee officer
should arrive for the prisoner. The
reason Tor this was said to be in order to
prevent any friends of the prisoner from
procuring his release on habeas corpus
proceedings.
The details of the case were. however,
made public by one of the deputies
yesterday, and published, before the
Tennessee Sheriff had time to start on
his journey.

JUDGMENT AFFIRMED
Ihe supreme Court Files Decision 1
u Shasta County Case,

Inc supreme Court Files Decision in
Shasta County Case.
The Supreme Court has rendered a de-
clsion III the Shasta County case of S. d.
Dammon VS.. ]. S. Beecher and Peter
Crumbaugh, sustaining the Judgment
and order of the lower court. The opin-
ION is written by Justice Garoutte. and
concurred in by Justices Harrison and
Paterson.
The defendants were partners doing a
general merchandise business. Beecher
was the general manager thereof. Crum-
paugh living at a distance. While the
defendants were so engaged as partners
on the 3lst of July, 1856, plaintiff de-
posted with the firm 81 ,05O. The money
was handed to defendant Beecher. as q
member OF the firm, who deposited it
with the firm funds, giving a receipt
therefor In the name OF the firm, and it
was thereupon used in the business of
Beecher ~ Crumbaugh, Beecher failing
10 inform Crumbaugh of the transaction.
Ihe action was brought to recover from
the partnership the amount of money so
deposited.
The court holds that the money being
used for the purchase of partnership
goods and the payment of partnership
uepts, .Srulnpaugn was equally liable
with his partner Beecher. Beecher had
full power to borrow money for the use
of the firm and sign notes In the name of
the firm, and thus bind his partner The
fact that one partner was not present at
the moment the money passed from
plaintiff into the safe of the firm is i'm
material. The court further says that it
may be conceded that the act OF partner,
who, being trustee, improperly employs
mOn2V Fa.1tc int ln
partnership business, does not of itself
create liability in favor of the bene-
hclary against the firm; but the present
case is much broader in its facts.

city. He sold out his store at Red Bank
in the fall of '51 and went to Brighton
and engaged in farming on the American
River, Just above where the town of II obo-
ken afterward stood. Colby was elected to
the State Senate the same fall, and took
his seat on the Sth of January following.
He was afterward elected once or twice
to the same office. Colby was the origi-
nal owner of the Sargent ranch, on the
upper Stockton road, near this city.
WHERE THE OLD FORT WENT.
At the time of the flood of 1S6l-62 Colby
secured franchise from the city and
county, under the Consolidation Act, to
bullq a toll bridge across Burns Slough,
on h street, in Sacramento, just north of
Suffers Fort, and the adobe walls of the
old fort were used for the purpose OF
filling in the slough and building ap-
proacheg to the bridge. He soon after
sold the bridge TO the city and county.
Colby was elected Surveyor of Sacramento
County in 1862, and served two years, at
the expiration of which time he removed
to Butte County, where he engaged ex-
tensively in farming. He also established
a ferry across the Sacramento River at
Colby's Landing, where he resided and
kept store until the completion of the
railroad to Nord, in 1871, when he re-
moved the store to that place. The Gov
ernment established a Postoffice at Nord
at the same time and appointed G. w.
Colby Postmaster, which office he held
until the time of his death.
In 1870 he received a contract from the
Government and sectioniZed the public
lands in the greater portion of what is
now Glenn County. He afterward served
one term as Director of the State Agri-
cultural Society; also two terms as Presi-
dent of the Grangers' Bank of San Fran
cisco. Colby removed with his family
from Butte County to Benicia in 1873, and
died in San Francisco in 1881.
HoBoKEN's RISE AND FALL.
In January, 1853. when this city was
flooded, the merchants, in order to sup
ply their customers in the mining dis
tricts, were obliged to remove their stores
| to higher ground, which they found five
miles east of the flooded city, on the south
bank of the American River just below
the town of Brighton, thus forming an
extension to that village. The new town
was named Hoboken, and so rapidly did
it grow that in few days it promised TO
rival the city itself, there being by that
time nearly fifty business houses and
tents in the town and population OF
about 1,S00.
The American River was then navi-
| gable to the towns of both Hobok en- and
Brighton. Two or three steamboats,
made daily trips between the city and
these points. Trade was rushing in both
places for about three months. By this
time the water had subsided, the city was
once more dry, the merchants and busi-
ness men returned to Sacramento, and
Hoboken went down as rapidly as it had
sprung up. CHARLES PETIT.

This evening, at Pythian Castle, corner
Ninth and l streets, at S O'Clock, Mr.. Tig-
ner of New York will deliver his address
on '"The Best Methods of Encouraging
Trade" and he asks all wide-awa1e busi-
ness men to come and hear him, averring
that they will certainly be benefited by
considering this address. particularly the
young man, who hopes to some day have
business of his own.
The following is what few leading pa
pers of this coast say of the lecturer, who
has given some years of study, he says,
to the subject:
The Examiner said: "Representative
business men were present in Metropoli-
tan Hall last night when Professor Tig-
ner of New York delivered his talk on
The Best Methods of Encouraging
Trade Great interest was manifested in
the address. The speaker was frequently
applauded."
The San Francisco Chronicle said:
Professor J. H. Tigner delivered very
interesting address last night in Metro
politan Hall on The Best Methods of
Encouraging Trade The audience was
attentive and appreciative, and many
valuable suggestions relative to extend
ing the sale of goods were assimilated by
the business men present."
The Oakland Enquirer thus spoke:
The Best Methods of ENCOURAGING
Trade was the subject of Professor j. n.
Tigner's address at Hamilton Hall last
evening, and those who attended were
well entertained by the gentleman, who
proved to be a very interesting talker.
His subject, which on the first thought
might be looked upon as dry, was
handled with such skill, ability and
cleverness that the address from first to
last was listened to with the deepest in
terest."
The Oakland Tribune said: professor
j. II. Tigner last night addressed large
and appreciative audience in Hamilton
Hall upon The Best Methods of Encour-
aging Trade The address wa a very
interesting exposition of the subject and
was invaluable from the information ii
contained to the business men,"

The Best System of Fortificatiou

worth any amount of medication after

tit of indigestion, increasing irregularity
of the bowels, a warning rheumatic
twinge, inactivity of the kidneys. slight

with furred tongue-these are appeals 10
the sense of self-protection which no per-
son of common Judgment will disregard.

ARARE. OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
to $50 per Acre.

The Pacific Improvement Company has re-
Gently purchased twelve thousand scres OF
land in the heart of Teha2na 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
4o so, 12o, 16o 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, a. which
time the purchaser can begin tho 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 hve equal annual installments with in
terest at the rate of per cent. per annum.
making payments extending over 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 $40 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 fruitgrowing, cannot be
had in California for less than from $50 to
300 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 10 actual settlers O result easy OF
accomplishment,
The primary object OF the purchase of this
body of land was the breaking up of a larpa
holding for the purpose Of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
TO diligent husbandry.

Best Methods of Encouraging Trade
Tigner to Business Men.
1t is trite saying that "There is moth
ing new under the sum-" While that may
be so, still there are great many things
that are entirely new to a great many,
and none should deem themselves too old
to learn.
Everyone who has a dollar invested in
an enterprise should be anxious for its
success as moneymaker. Money was
never made by the man who was indif-
terent to his business, and at this particu-
lar time every person in Sacramento
should be fully alive to this fact.

The Discovery Made by Two Festive
Burglars Near Folsom.
Assistant District Attorney Jones went
to Folsom yesterday to attend the exami-
nation of John Martin and James Spencer
before Justice of the Peace Steele of that
place. The prisoners were charged with
burglary, in breaking into the cellar OF
Jacob Lyman at that place and stealing a
large quantity of canned goods of all kinds
ana case of champagne.
A skeleton-key was found where they
had thrown it. They had been living in
deserted cabin at the old Lawson mine,
and had evidently lived high while there,
as only two bottles OF champagne were
left and one empty bottle which smelled
strongly of champagne. although they
declared they had tilled it with water
from spring. A number of experts are
now out with divining-rods, trying to
locate that champagne spring. The men
are known to have no occupation.
The Justice held them to answer and
fixed their bail at 81, 800 each.
