NOSE GUNST'S BITTER MEDICINE.
How A. Doctor is Said to Have Ad.
ministered the Dose.
Another Episode In the Life of the
High-Rolllng Drummer Whom
Woman Cowhided Here.

Nose Gunst, the sportive cigar dealer
of San Francisco, who has acquired con-
siderable celebrity as a speculator on the
outcome of prize fights, is down in the
mouth.
According to San Francisco paper, a
youth named Alex Doctor, a travelling
salesman for Gunst, has disappeared
with $500 which belonged to his en-
ployer. 1t is believed that he has gone 10
Mexico; at least Gunst has received ad-
vices from Los Angeles to that effect, and
he has about given up hope of seeing him
very soon.
Docter left San Francisco on May oath
last for Los Angeles. and Gunst says that
four days later he collected bill OF So. 500
from Michael Polaski Of that city. That
was the last seen Of him. Gunst says he
had no authority to collect the money, as
| he was employed only to sell goods.
The money, 1t seems, was paid in the
| form OF check on the night OF May 2Sth,
1t was made payable 10 the bearer, and as
soon as The banks opened the next morn
ing Docter cashed the check and left
town. Gunst says as it is Polaskis loss,
the latter will have to locate him ii he
wants TO gel even. But Polaski takes a
dlherent view OF the case, and is conti-
dent that Docter's employer is the vic
tim.
Docter had been travelling in the en-
ploy OF Gunst as a travelling salesman
for three years past. He came from Mil
Waukee highly recommended, and Gunst
reposed the highest confidence in him.
The young man is very high roller,
and is well known in certain circles in
this city, having been frequent visitor
here. A year or so ago he was horse
whipped on the streets by the proprietress
OF house OF in-repute here for the al
legged non payment of bill for wine
which he had ordered Oh his visits there
anu with which he treated "the ladies"
and his friends.
The next time he came to the city the
woman got out her cowhide again and
went on the warpath for him. She
haunted the sidewalk in front of the hotel
where he put UP. and vowed that if she
got at him she would mark him for life.
Docter managed TO evade his Nemesis,
however, but he got out OF town az soon
as possible. Since then be has allowed
Gunsts interests in this quarter to be
looked after by someone else.

TWO CUTTING SCRAPBS.
Thomas Fleming and Charles McCarty
Stabbed saturday Night.

Thomas Fleming and Charles McCarty
Stabbed saturday Night.
The Receiving Hospital looked like
slaughter house on Saturday night--the
victims of two serious cutting scrapes
having been treated there.
About 11:l5 o'clock man named
Thomas Fleming, a laborer employed by
the street railway company, was brought
to the police station suffering from stab
in the neck, and which nearly cost him
mis- life.
Fleming and some friends were stand
ing in front Of Mrs. Cody's lodging house
on Front street, between and *, when
their attention was attracted by quarrel
between an old man named Mike Nevins
and two others whose names could not be
learned.
One OF them knocked Nevins down,
when Fleming interfered and knocked
the man down who assaulted Nevins.
The man got up and tried to find q cobble
stone to use on Fleming, and his compan-
ion said, Give it to him now!"
With quick movement he made VIC
ious lunge at Fleming and buried the
blade Of pocket-knife TO the depth OF
over an inch III Fleming's neck close to
the juglar vein.
Fleming's assailant then ran away, and
although dlIlgent search was made for
him by the police and some of the injured
mans friends, who know him, he was
not found.
In the absence of the City Physician,

THE KNIFE AGAIN.
About an hour later Charles McCarty.
who was at one time a watchman at the
State Capitol, came into the police station
suffering from severe slash from knife
on his right leg between the hip and the
knee.
McCarty said that he and friend were
walking along l. street. near Third where
they encountered young Portuguese
named John Esquhierle, and that the lat

large pocket-knife and cut him on the le

WITH THE SCOTCHMEN.
The CaIedonians' Picnic Was Largely


Attended.
Notwithstanding the large exodus of
people from this city to San Francisco on
Friday and Saturday to take in the cele-
bration of Sacramento Day at the Mid
winter Fair, the attendance at the
eighteenth annual gathering and games
of the Caledonian Club was greater than
usual.
At $3.50 o'clock the parade, composed of
the local sons and lassies of Scotia, in
vited guests and members of the various
Caledonian Societies from abroad, started
from the headquarters Of the club at Pio-
neer Hall and marched through the prin-
cipal streets and thence TO East Park.
which had been prepared for the picnic.
Preceding the procession was wagon
drawn by four white horses, and in it
was the band and bagpipers, rendering
lively airs at intervals along the route.
After the wagon came long line of
carriages carrying members OF the Sacra-
mento society and visiting Caledonians
in full Highland costume. Among these
were the officers of the local society: John
Morrison, Chief; John G. Fraser, First
Chieftain; James Stewart, Second Chief
tain; James O. Stewart, Third Chiettain;
John X. Grinton, Fourth Chieftaln; DIR.
Robert Gowans, Club Physician; II. \.
Renwick and w. Renwick, Club Pipers.
The parade was witnessed by throngs
of people along the streets, and was very
pleasing feature. The brilliant colors of
the national costumes worn by the men,
the gaily-dressed women and children in
the carriages and the music of the bag
pipes interested old and young alike, and
many compliments were bestowed upon
the Caledonians as they passed.
Adjacent TO the ring where the games
took place was pitched the tent of Chief
John Morrison, where the guests OF the
club were entertained in royal style
throughout the day.
The ring was surrounded by seats
three tiers high, and they were filled dur
ing the entire time the games were in
progress.
The committee had provided strict
rules governing the various contests, and
the decisions of the judges gave general
satisfaction. The members of the COM
mittee were: Thomas Scott, David Reid,
John Morrison, j. Stewart, James @.
Stewart, John @. Fraser and John K.
Grinton.
Throughout the day dancing was kept
up on the large platform, the music for
which was rendered by the Patriarchs
Militant Band, while on another plat
form the reels, hornpipes, sword and
other special dances took place.
The music for the Scottish dances was
furnished by the pipers, and the grove
was made melodious by the weird and
lively airs.

THE PARADE.
About o'clock the parade took place,
and, despite the high wind which still
shrieked and whistled about the build
lngs and grounds, II was greatly enjoyed.
The parade was repeated again in the
evening, when the thousands of Japanese
lanterns placed around the grand court
were lighted and lent a fairy aspect to the
scene. At intervals of fifty or sixty feet
stands were erected on which colored
nres were lighted during the night pa
rade. As each float passed fire stand
showers of sparks were shot into the air.
In the center of the grand court eolored
stars were shot heayenward and several
figures IN fire exhibited to the admiring
crowds.
The night parade was far more pictur-
esque than the day pageant. During the
march the lights were turned low in

fire.
There were special set pieces in honor
of the Foresters and Sacramento County.
One was fire portrait Of Lewis Thorne
