The improvements which are being made In the
vicinity Of the matn entrance Of Prospect Park are
deserving of special notice from all who are Interested
in the outward appearance Of Brooklyn. There Is
so little 10 admire in many parts OF the city that
what rightly calls for admiration ought not to be
passed lightly. The most conspicuous OF these
improvements is the water tower which has
been erected at The northwest OF the Prospect

NIHILISM is WAR.
Talk of the New Russian
Treaty.
HOW THE CAR IS FAVORED.
Stepniak Makes an Appeal for the
Rejection of the Convention In the
interest of Justice.
Special to THE MORNING CALL

WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE text or the
alleged text of the extradition treaty
signed by Secretary Bayard and De Strive,
Russian Minister in Washington in 1887,
but which failed of ratification by the
Senate. principally because of the strong
opposition raised to article III defining
political offenses, is published here this
morning apparently with the view of
elciting expressions OF public opinion.
The same alleged text was published In
some New York papers six years ago and
is believed to be accurate. Article III is
the article which the Republican Sen ators,
1t Is said, now desire should be made pub
lie. In parallel columns with the CORE
spending article of the amended treaty,
which the Senate ratified last session. The
article in question as submitted In 1887 is
as follows:
Article III II 1t be made to appear that
extradition is sought with the view to try
or punish a person, on demand for an
offense of political character, the surren-
der shall not take place. nor shall any per-
son surrendered be tried, or punished, for
any political offense committed previous to
his txtradtion. nor for any offense other
than that for which extradition is granted /;
nor shall the surrender Of any person be
demanded for an 0ffense committed prior to
the date at which this convention shall take
effect. Murder or manslaughter. compris-
ing the willful or negligent killing Of a SOW
erelgn or chief magistrate of a state or any
member Of his family as well as an attempt
to commit or participate in said crimes,
shall not be considered an offense OF
political character"
1t is pointed out that the modification of
article III as adopted in the treaty which
now awaits exchange or ratification. is to
strengthen its declarations as TO political
offenses against sovereign or chief mags-
trate, but makes no con cessions in favor of
Russia not reciprocated in favor of the
United States. The actual text of this part
Of the treaty. as 1t now stands, is as fol-
lows:
"rhe attempt upon the life Of the head of
either Government, or against that of any
member OF his family, when such attempt
comprises the act either of murder or
assassination or of poisoning, shall not be
considered political offense or an act con-
nected with such Cffense."
Article II OF the treaty of 1887 contains
this: 1.-THE crime of forgery, by which is
understood the utterance of forged papers.
ana also the counterieiting of public, SOW
ereign or governmental acts" 1t is under
stood this definition is retained in the
amended treaty ratified by the Senate. The
opponents of the treaty contend that under
this definition persons will be extradtabie
for using false passports or passports issued
in an assumed name, which is said to be
very common practice of persons who be-
iieve their true names would excite the
suspicion OF the Russian authorities.

OLD AND SINFUL.
j. w. Kicks Is Charged
With Felony.
He Was a Sporting Man, a Lecturer,
Bigamist, and Is Now Charged
With EmbeZZlement.

An old man with snowy hair and patri-
aTchal beard was taken to the City Prison
last night and booked for felony embezzle-
ment The complainant is the manager of
the Occidental Watch Company OF "a Post
street. who alleged that the prisoner while
employed by the company embezzled prop
erty valued at $500.
The old man, whose name Is j. w. Kicks,
said that while drunk on the night of March
Is. he had been sandbagged and robbed of
watches and iewelry then in his possession,
which were the property Of the watch CON-
pany. Then he spoke feelIngly of his dear
niece in Seattle. and said that it would be
very painful thing for her to learn that he
was in prison.
The company's manager. strange to say,
did not believe Mr. Kicks stories about the
sand bagging, and his niece IN Seattle, il
she is really there ard not in his imagina-
ton, will shed no tears. for he has been
behind bars more than once in his iridescent
life.
Kicks made his debut in California early
in 1858 at mining camp. He had some fine
horses that he wanted 10 sell ana he sold
them. Some time later the purchasers of
the animals were panied and surprised to
learn that they had been stolen. Mr.. Kicks
was far away when this discovery was
made.
He appeared year or two later at an
other mining camp as pedestrian and
challenged a runner who was Justly cele-
brated TO a race. The challenge was ac-
cepted and the betting was against RicEs,
as he had an add OF unusual size.
Three months were given the racers to
prepare Tor the contest of speed, and hen
Kicks appeared on the track he was 1.-THE
and slender, and certain ungenerous and
eyii-minded persons, who probably lost
money on the race. said that he was padded
when he announced himself as a candidate
for the prize. He won the race and made
for himself a great name.
In 1886 he ian with noted sprinter in
this city. He was the fayorite as his record
was known. He was far ahead of his hated
rival In the race and was near the goal when
he tTipped, accidentally of course, and fell
to the ground. His opponent won, and the
spectators made unkind remarks about
Kicks and talked about a lynching bee.
The lecture platform subsequently took
him from the track, and ne travelled from
one end of the State to the other dropping
great thoughts on vital topics. About two
years ago he was arrested for bigamy in
this city because it was shown that he had
married, inadvertently, two woven. and he
spent ten dreary months in the House o.
Correction.
He said last night, when interviewed by
CALL reporter, that he married the second
woman while he was drunk.
The fact of it is" be sighed, 81 forgot
that was married 10 another woman"
Are you married nOw?"
mo, sir" the patriarch replied. 81 have
mad all the matrimony want"

FETE OF FLORA.
The Carnival Opened at
Santa Barbara.
THRONGED WITH VISITORS.
Hundreds of Strangers at the Cham

lions of the Pavilion.
THRoNGED WITH VISITORS.
Special to TIE MoRNINs CALI.

SANTA BARBARA. April 11.-At noon to-
day the wide doors of the pavilion were
thrown back and the flower carnival of 1893
had opened. Never before did the great
building present such magnificent appear
ance. 1t is one bower of beau
tiful foliage and fragrant fow-
ers. The massive tmbers of the
roof are hidden by gray tree moss. which.
after winding around and around the pil-
lars and cross beams. trails gracefully down
toward the floor in a most natural way.
Fan and date palm leaves in large numbers
are arranged here and there and 60 toward
making the background. Festoons of
flowers swing gracefully from arch to arch,
and the exhibits complete the display.
The exhibits surpass by far those of the
previous year. FL Monticello ladies' have
miniature of Monticello in 1893" in which
the valley as it was a hundred years ago is
plated out with its wooded ranches, wind
ing roads and little farmhouses and the old
mission church and school, and the "big
grapevine" as it was when tended by the
old padres.
In the center of the large building Is
Moorish Kiosk, some eight or ten feet in
height and several feet square. 1t is of
tasteful design and is covered with Gala
AaAiAoo' -AhOAhOA CAhlOlb ID uOEdl TepTe-
sentation of the Mission bells, seven or
eight in number, composed of the choicest
varieties of roses. There are many other
displays, not including individual efforts.
1t would seem that California had
stripped her gardens of their flowers and
sent them to the pavilion, but it is not so.
Even in Santa Barbara there are more, as
tomorrow will show.
Tomorrow is the big day of the carnival.
In the procession of decorated vehicles and
the battle of flowers interest centers. At 2
o'clock he parade will move. 1t will con-
sjst of floats covered with roses. carriages
buried beneath flowers and coaches, tam
dems. d5gesrts, fully decorated with buds
ana blossoms.
The principal buildings on Slate street
where the parade will be held are being
decorated, and by tomorrow a street of
business houses will be transformed into
shaded drive. Stores, banks, business
houses Of every nature will close and tie
day will be given up to pleasure.
The battle of flowers will take place on
Upper State street and will be witnessed
by thousands.
Never were so many people in the Chan
mel CITY as at present. To-day's trains
added a thousand TO the throng and many
more will arrive tomorrow. As yet there
has been no difficulty in finding accommo-
datons for the multitude.

MOVED BY MUSIC.
Free Circus in the Palace
Hotel Court.
WelIs-Fargo's White Horse Began to
Dance When the Band Played a
Familiar Waltz.

Get onto de boss, MickeyH said a mes
sepger-boy in a stage whisper TO his COM
panion in uniformed slowness, as the two
stood in the court Of the Palace Hotel last
evening after dinner listening TO the lively
strains Of Waldteufel's Pres de To"
waltz
They ought to Lave been scurrying
through the streets on their errands bent,
but that is another story and depression.
Lord but he's danciu'p' said Mickey,
who had "got onto de boss" as requested by
his friend.
He's waltzn'." said Mickey's companion.
"See his STEP"
Sure enough, the white horse hitehed to
the Wells-Fargo express wagon at the far
Their end OF the court was raising first one
foot and then another in Il way that was
most ludicr0us TO the disinteTested specta-
tors, but highly alarming TO the conscien-
tious driver. vino feared greatly for the
equilibrium of big pile of trunks be had
just loaded on the wagon.
BY this time the entire crowd was "onto
de boss" The musicale WAS forgotten in
the novelty Of the equestrian performance.
The crowd was greatly interested. Soon
the orchestra was deserted for the greater
attraction, and that poor old white horse
was ellciting Toars of laughter and applause
from delighted audience.
To see horse dance in the circus ring is
sight worth the admission price alone.
Here was horse hitched TO an express
wagon giving free exhibition in a public
place.
The crowd enjoyed it hugely.
The steps and motions of the harnessed
horse were whole circus in themselves
And the animal seemed to be thoroughly
awake to the attention and applause be-
slowed upon him.
He raised his right forefoot and nodded
his head to the left. Then his left hind hoof
and his head swayed TO right
The right forefoot and the left hind foot
kept time together. and ever and anon the
gay beast would give lureh of the whole
body and attempt to rear up.
The crowd screamed with delight.
The driver was sadly frightened, but so
spellbound at the unusual sight that he
stood still, knowing not what to do.
The music waXed faster.
The naG's gyratons kept pace with the
music, to the imminent peril of that per-
pendicuiar pile OF trunks and the delight of
tbs crowd.
Soon the entire hotel was deserted and
the courtyard was crowded.
Ii was rare sight, but just as tho white
horse was beginning to get his stiff legs
