BY An ENGINE.
A Tramper's Terrible Experience in
a Tunnel.
While Fleeing From Train He Lost
His Glasses and Tumbled Into
a Water Dixie.

''I have heard my father tell how one
feels when chased by Indians, but l would
rather have a thousand redskins after me
than a railroad engine when the opportu-
mites of getting out Of the latter's road are
blocked"
1t was Joseph Lynch, well-known poll
tician, who made the above statement to
a few of his friends last evening, as a
prelude to an experience he had last Sun
day in trip through tunnel.
"You see, continued Mr.. Lynch, evil
liam Suompff, Joe Clark and | decided to
foot it to San Rafael from Tiburon, and as
we arrived at tunnel 2, which is near Reeds
tramping in an opposite direction if there
was any danger of train coming along,
and receiving negative answer we de-
cided to go ahead.
"Well, 1 Judge we had got about three
quarters of the way when | heard whistle
or two and on looking back sure enough
there was the engine coming along down
grade and under full head of steam.
81 had only a second to contemplate
and l decided to rely upon my good neither
limbs to get out of the big hole before the
train had chance of crunching my body
into Jelly. [ ran and fell over ties and
rails, and every moment / expected the
engine TO be on top or me. The perSplra-
ton ran like a stream down my back.
81 grew weak from exhaustion and fright
and seeing that my efforts to beat the train
out of the tunnel were fruitless | trusted
to luck, and side-tracking my body l lay
down in a foot of water between the rail
and the side of the tunnel. The train shot

But for getting away from the post so
poorly, ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS would have been
a certainty for the place.
Had it not been for Robin Hood, George
Rose would have considered his horse a
cinch for the second race.
Tom Ryan and his partner Wright are
said to have made cleanup by the win of
the mare May Mccarthy. Chorn's ride
was clever piece of iockeyshlp.
Red Pat was badly iostled at the second
turn In his race, losing much ground.
Booze ran last meeting in the colors OF l..
G. White, who owns Miss Fletcher and

AT one time during the betting on the
second race, Barney Schneider marked 100
to 1 straight, s.and 40 to l place against
Mary S, with Griffin up. Perhaps the
astute German bookmaker doesn't know a
thing or two.
Russell is certainly a very promising
rider. His finish on Garcia was worthy of
more than passing notice.

GUS GRIFFIN Is HELD.
Miss WiIIetta Robertson Tells How She
Captured the Burglar.

Miss WiIletta Robertson Tells How She
Captured the Burglar.
Miss Willetta Robertson, the plucky
young heiress, who, single-handed, cap
tured Gus Griffin, a burglar, in the Hotel
Savoy week ago. formed the center of at
traction in Judge Conlan's court yesterday
morning.
Griffin, who is quite swell in appear
ance, had his preliminary examination be-
fore the Judge. The story of the capture
was told by Miss Robertson in matter of
fact way. She told how she found her
mothers room locked on the inside and
stood in the hallway to await develop
ments. As Griffin unlocked and opened
the door she seized him by the arm and
compelled him to accompany her to the
elevator. They went down together and
he begged her to let him go, but she refused
and kept him in the dining-room until a
policeman was summoned.
Mrs. M. A. Gaffney, Miss Robertson
mother, gave corroborative evidence and
Policeman Gaynor testified to arresting
Griffin in the hotel and finding lady s
gold watch and chain, purse containing
SIT and four skeleton keys on the prisoner.
Griffin listened attentively to the evil
dence, and when asked if he had anything
to say he replied in the negative. He did
not have an attorney but James II. Long
said, as matter of humanity, he would
represent him. He urged there was no
legal evidence against the defendant, but
the court thought differently and held
Griffin to answer before the Superior Court
in $4,000 bonds.

PARTED WITH HIS MONEY.

Andy U1in, Mexican, SwindIed by a
BunkO Steerer.
W. s. Pierce, alias "Sheeny Kid" a
bunko steerer, was booked at the City
Prison yesterday, by Policemen Coleman
and Graham, on the charges of grand lar
ceny and vagrancy.
The complaining witness is Andy Ulin,
a Mexican. He arrived in the city last
Friday and on the ferry-boat made the
acquaintance of Pierce. Ulin registered at
the Baldwin Hotel, where he was visited
by Pierce. Not feeling very well he told
Pierce he would like to consult physi-
clan. The two left the hotel for that pur-
pose, but Pierce steered him to a saloon on
Eddy street. While standing at the bar
Pierce was joined by another man and the
two began to throw dice, top and bottom.
Finally the other man offered to throw
Pierce for $1,000. Pierce took UIin aside
and got $3.50 in gold from him and 400
Mexican dollars, giving him as security a
bogus check for $4,000, signed by William
E. Black, on the Dewey Banking Company,
San Francisco. Pierce then promptly dis
appeared and Ulin reported his loss to the
police.
