He Tried to Sell White One of His Own
Pistols.
Paddy McCarty was examined yester-
day on charge of burglarizing the house
of L. A. Kidder and taking some clothes
and pistol therefrom.
The testimony showed that Kidder's s
house was entered on the night of the 18th.
while he was absent guarding the olo
bridge. Officer Ash arrested McCarty on
Second street as he was trying to sell a
pistol which he at first claimed as having
been owned by him for seven months
and which he afterward said be found,
with two others which were found on
his person, tied up III handkerchief
near the Yolo bridge. McCarty told con-
Trajectory stories. and the other two pls-
tolls were identified by John White, a
conductor on the Electric Railway. as
having been stolen from his home on the
night of July 4th.
McCarty said he was sailor, but not
employed at present. He came here from
Dayisville by way Of Elmira, Vacavllle
and other towns. He could not remefn-
Der various statements made by him to
the officers and City Attorney. The
court held him to answer and fixed his
bail at 81 600.
One of the funny things about the
affair was that McCarty approached
White in the street and endeavored to
sell him one Of his own pistols, stolen the
night before.

What a Southern California Paper Hi
to Say of Sacramento.


to say of Sacramento.
The editor of the Cftrogrdph of Red
lands. San Bernardino County. who at
tended the Republican State Convention
here, has this to say of the Capital City:
Sacramento did herself proud on the
occasion of the late Republican Conven-
ton. The city was beautifully and pro-
fusely decorated, the Stars and Stripes be-
ing seen everywhere and festooned in all
sorts of shapes. The assembly hall was
made up in red, white and blue, and
looked elegantly patriotic.
Sacramento herself is vastly changed
city from the folorn looking place oil
three years ago. Sacramento has been
having mighty hustle on. Streets have
been bitumenized and macadamized The
old, rotten, wooden awnings have come
down. The decaying plank sidewalks
have come up, and cement and stone have
taken their place. The street car lines
have been remodeled, and new electric
cars have replaced the ramshackle affairs
of the old regime.
Houses have been remodeled in ac-
cordance with modern designs, grounds
have been laid oil and beautified, and, in
fact, this Sacramento is essentially q new
Sacramento, and it is with pride-instead
of shame-that the Sacramentan names
the city of his residence. In fact, Sacra-
mento is now a nice place in which to
hve-and that is one of the reasons why
we had O sort of desire to live there for
the next four years"

How They Took a Lively Cart Ride
Yesterday.
Three young men in cart turned reck-
lessly into X street at Seventh last night,
apparently trying to get ahead of couple
in another cart. AS they struck the rail-
way tracks the rebound came very near
spIlling them out. They went on down
street, however, to the corner of Fifth,
where. in attempting to cross the tracks
again, they came to grief, the driver be-
ing thrown out and the cart passing over
his neck, but not hurting HIM much. AS
ne took the lines with him, the men who
were left were not in an enviable situa-
tion and one of them Immediately jumped
out.
The third one stuck to the cart, and in
some manner first caught hold of the
horses tail and afterward recovered the
lines from the ground and stopped the
horse. He picked up the others and they
drove off together
