..You may talk as YOU will about

old soldier to writer for the New
York Advertiser. but man cannot
tell what moment his courage may
forsake him. He may enter battle
with the greatest enthusiasm and
valor. but before much lighting has
taken place be running like the
worst coward Courage is something
that cannot be counted upon 1t

during the war which well illustrated
this There was CAPTAIN leading
his company up steep hill The
rebs were known to be coming up

ant matter to get to the top first
Tho captain was brave fellow and
did all in his power to urge his men

words. The position was a serious

wavering could be seen in the ranks,
and the captain realizing that a re-
treat would be disastrous. took

loud voice: The first man that
turns his back I'll shoot down in his
tracks With this threat he was
enabled to reach the top of the hill.

sword and ran TO the rear as fast as
his feet could carry him Just when
he needed his courage most he found
it wanting. No one could say that
the man was anything but brave. for

TO show the merits OF her voice and train
ing. Her duet with NJ. Rumford IN Don

cred by the robust notes of the baritone.
In ''P PAllegro ell Pensieroso," by Handel,
with flute accompaniment, she was at her
best. Her vocalization was perfect. Her
tones were so birdlike, and in such accord
with the instrument, that they captured
the entire audience. AS tribute to her
patrons and friends in the audience who
did not understand French, her third
number. both parts, were rendered in
English. The homely song, Mother,
Mother Darling" went straight to the
heart. Each OF her appearances on the
programme were heartily greeted by
naturally cold audience.
Since / saw her in concert, the last
evening in Sacramento, some two years
or more ago. she has improved greatly.
The tremulo in her voice is but little
used. Her high notes are stronger and
have lost none of their sweetness. Her
execution is better. She has done faith
ful and hard work. Her voice is fitted
for successful concert work, and l hope
the report that she aspires to the stage is
not true. Yours,

WACHHORST DIAMOND ROBBERY.
Horace Blacks Trial Set for Next
Month.
Convict Edwards Makes n Statement.
and Also Connects Black With
Case of Murder.

Horace Black was arraigned in Judge
Catlin's court yesterday on an Indictment
for participation in the Wachhorst dia-
He was attended by w. A. Anderson as
counsel. and entered plea of not guilty.
The case was set for trial in April,
and it is supposed that w. II. Edwards,
who is now serving term in Folsom
Prison for robbery subsequently COM
mitted in San Francisco, will be brought
here to testify in the case for the prosecu-
ton, he having been one of the four men
concerned in that bold and sensational
affair.
Edwards recently made a statement to
the officers concerning the details of the
robbery, when between $4,000 and $4,000
worth of diamonds were stolen. His
story simply gives strength to what the
public already understood to be the fact
that he, Frank Shercliff now in Iowa
Prison for another diamond robbery,
Horace Black and another man did the
job.
Black, who is now in the County Jail,
had already been identified by August
Gerlach, Wachhorst's salesman, as the
one who covered him with pistol while
the other men gathered up the diamonds
from the show window. Edwards says
that he kept watch; that Shercliff broke
the window, and that the other man
whose real name has not been made pub
lie, although specified in the Indictment
as James Jordan-raked up the jewels.
The plumber they took to San francisco,
but Edwards declares he never received
his share of it.
The chief interest in Edwards state
ment lies in the assertion that it was
Sherclitf and Black who attempted to rob
a grocer in San Francisco, named Henry
Hillebrand, at 17l2 Eddy street, two
years ago, ana on his making defense
shot him. From the effects of the wound
Hillebrand died, but the police never OBJ
tanned clue to the murderers.
He also states that he and Black made
several trips to the East, and once made
an unsuccessful attempt to rob bank in
St. Lolis.
Black treats Edwards statement with
derision. He says he never made trip
to the East, and that he is not the Black
at all that the officers are after, and that
so far as he is concerned it is case OF
mistaken identity.
1t was Detective Pinkerton of Chicago
who effected Shercliff's arrest for the
Omaha diamond robbery, and who
learned the facts which connected Ed
wards and Black with the Wachhorst
robbery.

More Enterprise.

Sacramento possesses many opportu-
mites Tor the successful establishment OF
manufacturing industries which would
well repay investigation and investment.
By the conversion of many latent re-
sources (which now remain dormant)
into the channels of trade and CONNER ce,
the production would create an incentive
for increased consumption.
Needed features in our mercantile pur-
suits should be ever welcomed and har-
bored by the trade. Not too much en-
eouragement can, therefore, be accorded
the new firm of Wilson IL Hall, manu-
featuring chemists, two young men of
practical experience. who have estab-
lished at 209 j street for the purpose OF
manufacturing the High Grade' flavor
inc extracts and only tirst-class carbon
ated beverages. They also intend to
carry full line of spices for the trade.
Sacramento is in need OF just such an in
dustry and should meet the undertaking
with its patronage.
Charles b. Wilson has been connected
with Scott 81 Gilbert, formerly OF this
CITY, in the same line of business, for
some time, and is thoroughly conyersant
with all its intricacies. and w. {. Hall
has had equal experience in the mercan-
tile line. Both are energetic, capable.
enterprising and competent TO fulfill the
obligations of the trade. we have no
other industry of this character IN our
midst.

Petition to the Governor for August
Zimmerman's Pardon.
Application was made yesterday to
Governor Markham for the pardon of
August Zimmerman, who was several
years ago convicted of the murder of one
Kutchenstall and sentenced to imprison-
ment for life.
Governor Waterman afterward COM
muted his sentence to twenty-five years.
Several affidavits are presented, which
tend to prove that Zimmerman was made
a scapegoat of the real murderer and had
nothing TO do with the murder. The
papers which accompany the petition
state that one Ed Netf, who was tried for
the murder and acquitted, endeavored to
throw the blame on Zimmerman in order
to shield the man who really committed
the murder.
Charles L. Jones, in an affidavit, states
that Netf admitted to him that what he
stated on the witness-stand was not the
truth.
He further says that from other things
Netf said, he is fully convinced that Zim
norman is innocent. The signers of the
petition, which is very strong one, state
that they believe Zimmerman to be inno-
