SENTENCED FOR BURGLARY.
Martin VIII Be the Guest of the State
for Four Years.

Martin VIII Be the Guest of the State
for Four Years.
John Martin, whoswas convicted of
burglary in the first degree for stealing
from the cellar of Jacob Lyman at Fol-
som quantity of fine canned goods and
champagne, while living in deserted
miners cabin near that place, appeared
before Judge Johnson for sentence yes
terday morning.
In response to questions by the Judge,
he stated that he had been in the State
SIX months, three of which he spent here
in the County Jail. and two in Marys-
vile, where, he claimed, as he could not
get work through the rainy season, a
man allowed him to live in an old cabin.
vi the remaining month, he spent two
weeks at Folsom, where he was arrested.
hen Spencer, his companion. pleaded
guilty to petit larceny, for which he was
sentenced to the County Jail for six
months, Martin refused to plead guilty
and preferred to stand trial.
AS consequence he was found guilty,
the evidence showing that the tracks
found near the cellar door corresponded
with those of the defendant, part of the
goods were found hidden near the cabin
where he and Spencer were, as well as an
empty champagne bottle, which he stated
he kept water in. A key which fitted the
cellar was also found in his bed
The court pronounced sentence of inn
prisonment for four years at Folsom
upon him, and he will take up his resi-
dence under the care of Warden Aull
Tor that time. Although the altitude of
the prison is greater than that of his cabin
near the old mine, it is probable he will
not live as high for some time to come as
he did while he sojourned in the latter
place. He is not an Unlocking man, and
one would hardly take him at first sight
to be a criminal

COYOTE SCALPS.
No More Claims Therefor to Be Paid
Unless the Courts Saw So.

No More Claims Therefor to Be Paid
Unless the Courts Say So.
Somebody directly interested in the
coyote scalp industry will have to bring
suit against the State Board Of Examin-
ers and get judgment against them, af-
tirmed by the Supreme Court, before any
more claims for scalps are allowed.
The State Auditing Board has decided
to act on the defensive in this matter
hereafter. The last Legislature made no
special appropriation from which to pay
claims Of this character, ana as they now
amount to SS0,000-in addition to the
100000 allowed prior to September last
the board has deemed it advisable to call
a halt until the courts determine whether
or not they must audit claims of this
character.
In the absence of a special appropria-
ton therefor, and in view OF the fact that
these claims amount to about SI00,G per
year, the members of the board regard
the legality OF the claims as doubtful.
Any one having claim of this sort
against the State, and who thinks HIM
self entitled to have it paid, must take
the matter into the courts to determine
the validity of the Act under which the
coyote industry has grown to such NAM
moth proportions.

And if you think it an easy horse to
manage, get right in and try it yourself,
for experience is the best teacher The
race around the swimming tank on the
barrel horses is a novel one and laugh
able one as well, and bucking horse is a
staid and demure animal compared with
them.
Then Captain Jack Williams will also
give one of his great performances, in
Guiding his Astonishing Monte Christie act,
which it has so long puzzled the people to
explain. How he gets out of the sack
in which he is tied up and thrown into
the water is a puzzle, but he does it,
nevertheless. Tonight and tomorrow
night are the last of his present engage
ment here. and those who have been to
see him in his performances cannot speak
ofhinn in too admiring terms. In spite of
the cool weather the people throng the
baths to enjoy the fine water which is
constantly running in and out, and the
crystal depths of which look so inviting
to those who love aquatic sports.

City Trustees yesterday to set out the
public park at Twenty-seveuth and Tween
;y-eighth streets with trees and keen it
in order for a certain time He said he
lived in the neighborhood' and would
like to see the place improv ed, as it would
enhance the value of property and add to
the beauty of that part of the city. It
would take little over goo feet of water

nection could easily be made with the
main on one of the streets on which the
park fronts.
on being asked by Mayor Steinman
what he expected to make out of il. he
replied that he expected it to improve the
value of his property, as well as that of
his neighbors, and that when he left the
city he wished to feel that he had done
something toward improving it.
The Mayor called him good Samaritan
and he replied that the Mayor could cali
him what he pleased, but he would like
to see a fresh, green park there, in place
of a dry field.
reporter the plan which he had mapped
out for the park, in case his proposition
was accepted. 1t is departure from the
regulation pattern with walks running
from the corners to the center. In Mr..
Vincenrs plan the walks, which run
from the corners to circular plot in the
center, are curving, inclosing pointed
oval liz each corner, with rows of trees
along their edges and row extending
around the park. There is a twenty-foot
space left outside the walk in order to
give plenty of room for row OF shade
trees between the curbing and the side
walk.

The Odds on the California Colt Have
Fallen Fifty Per Cent.
A few weeks ago the Eastern book
makers We're Offering odds of 30 to
against c. L. Fairs California colt Flood
gate for the American Derby to be run at
Chicago the last week OF this month.
The colt was worked over the Agricult-
ural Park course in this city all last win
ter, and Sacramentans had such conf
dence in his speed and staying qualities
that many invested on him at the above
figures.
Should Floodgate win the great race a
certain astute young hotel clerk here will
have more money than he will know
what to do with, although his investment
was not large.
Yesterday word was received to the
effect that the Eastern horsemen and book
makers have become so impressed with
FIoodgate's showing in his training that
the odds against him have been reduced
from 80 to 10 to l. The odds on Dare, his
stable companion, are 40 to /, and many
regard him as good buy at these figures.

WATER SHUT OFF
Changing Valve in the I-Street Main
Was the Cause

W dS lIU OtIISe.
The city water was shut off last night
at 10 o'clock in order to put in a new
valve in the main at Second and l streets.
1t was expected that the new valve
could be placed in an hour. but consider
able difficulty in fitting it caused delay,
and the water supply was cut off until
after l o'clock.
The larger consumers of the city were
notified in advance that the water would
be cut OFT, and the Fire. Department was
also notified, so that the cisterns might
be used in case OF fire. In the latter
event, however, the Superintendent OF
the Water Works could have replaced
the old valve and started up the pumps
on short notice.
Considerable inconvenience was caused
among families who had made no prepa-
ration for the event.

Slippery Tracks.

An electrical journal asks
whether some one can not discover
a way to prevent the slipping of
'street-car wheels, and thus remove
a factor of danger in the operation
of street cars, especially in winter.
The cold and snowy rails are re-
sponsible for many of the collisions
and other casualties which occur
during the winter season. In
Scranton, Pa, recently there was a
sort of epidemic of collisions for a
few days, chargeable entirely to
this cause. The mOtOrmen claim
that the custom of sprinkling salt
on the rails to melt the snow and
ice thereon is a good one to that
extent, but a bad one in that when
the salt becomes crushed and pull
verified it makes the rails as Slip
perry as before. In the meantime
there is the chance of a fortune for
the inventor who has the luck to
hit on the right remedy.

A Magnetic Detector.

\ clever cOntrivance has been
invented for the detection OF small
pieces OF magnetisable metal, such
as needles, tacks, steel and iron
chips, enc, that may have entered
the human body unawares and
hidden themselves in the skin or
deeper tissues. The instrument
was devised by DR.. j. b. Williams
and consists essentially of par
TALLY astatic combination of small
magnetic needles suspended with
in a glass tube, the tube being
covered with tinfOil to minimize
electric action, except for a small
space through which the needle
can be observed, 1t is claimed
thai the instrument is sufficiently
delicate to detect the presence of
one-eighth of an inch of steel or
iron wire of distance of 6 inches
from itself. Such an instrument
will be- of the greatest service in
many cases where the ordinary
methods of detecting the presence
of foreign metallic substances are
ineffective and unreliable.

Revolution Counter.

Those who have much to do
with machinery often find it ne
cessary to determine the number
of revolutions. A ready method
of doing this has been provided in
an instrument which takes the
form of a pocket-watch. In this
shape it is conveniently portable,
is always available, can not get out
of order, and is not liable to be
damaged by rough handling. The
Watch-caSe keeps the works pro-
tected and clean, and to secure an
easy reading the face is silVered
and the figures bold and black.
The revolutions read off dial like
that of a watch by two arbOrs, the
long one reading units and tens,
the short one reading hundreds.
The instrument is so constructed
that whichever way the machin-
cry revOlVeS-tO the right or left
is direct reading. There is a disk
under the face with double set of
figures, and these figures become
visible through the apertures in
the face automatically, in accord
ance with the direction in which
the spindle revOlVes. BY a key in
side the back cover both arbOrS are
easily placed back at zero.
