Kings County with them. whore they are
TO be sold among the farmers down there.
Soon after the band had crossed the
levee they encountered number OF loose
horses on Twelfth street. These joined
the Oregon contingent and began cavort-
ing about and started the strangers into a
canter. The vaqueros in charge did their
best TO control the horses, but without
success.
At Twelfth and F streets the farm team
of Daniel Compton broke from its moor
ings, and little farther on another team
joined the now affrighted band.
Thus reinforced, the ''manatha," as our
Mexican friends would say, stampeded
straight for Capitol Park, into which they
went pell-mell and scattered into three
bands. On reaching street the Compton
team made DEPRESSION and came to grief
in the basement of the Telegraph Plan
ing Mill.
The horses left the Park on the eastern
end and ran out to Thirty-flrst street,
then down the north levee to about oppo-
site Agricultural Park, where they
turned and headed for the American
River.
They were finally surrounded and
driven back through Twelfth street with
out the loss of any, and then across the
city to the Stockton road.

MURDEROUS AFFAIR AT DAVISVILLE
A Young Man Named Miller Shot by
an Unknown.
The Third Attempt Made Upon His
Lffe-His Assailant Makes
His Escape.

A special to the RECORD-UNIoN by
telephone last night from the Woodland
M0t tells of mysterious and murder
GUS attack made that evening on young
man of Davisville. named Miller, which
may result in his death.
Miller, who is brother.in-law Of Page,
the Davisville merchant. is but 19 years
OF age, and is young man Of most ex-
emplRry character, popular and of good
standing in that community.
About O'Clock last evening, as he was
sitting on the porch in front OF his home,
an unknown man, armed with shot
gun, was seen TO partially cross the street
toward the house. When near the house
he raised his gun and discharged one
barrel of the weapon at Young Miller.
The shot did not hit him, and he started
up TO go into the house, when the assas-
SIN discharged the contents of the other
barrel at him, and the shot took effect in
his breast.
Mem bers of the family ran out, alarmed
at Miller's cries and the reports of the
gun, and assisted him into the house.
Doctors were summoned and his wounds
dressed. Miller was alive at last accounts,
and the physicians think he has chance
for his life, though his condition is ad-
mitted to be critical.
In the excitement of the moment the
assassin escaped, but officers at once set
out in search Of him and it is believed he
will be captured.
Neither Miller nor any member OF the
family has any idea OF whom the wretch
is. Miller has not been concerned in any
scrape, and everyone is at loss TO know
why the attempt on his life was made.
The case Is very strange one, but it is
evident that the young man has at least
one desperate and deadly enemy, for this
is the third time that an attempt upon his
lie has been made.

Attorney eneral Fitzgerald has rem
dered the following opinions upon mat
ters which are of considerable import
ance to those directly Interested. as we'll
as to the public in general:
BUILDING AND LOAN ASSOCIATIONS.
Board of Commissioners, Building and
Loan Association, San f3'dnctSc0-GEN-
TLEMEN: Replying to your letter OF re-
cent date, asking: First, whether or not
building and loan association Is ln-
solvent when It's property has deprecated
TO an extent that exhausts the entire
accumulated profits and impairs the dues
paid in 10 or 20 per cent, alter allowing
for outside claims; second. can such asso-
citation continue business without scaling
its book value of shares? and third. can
the Board OF Directors effect such scaling,
or must it be done by vote OF Its share
holders? am of the opinion:
Firot-That building and loan cor
poration is insolvent when its available
and coiIectsble assets are reduced below
the value of its capital stock, as detined
in Section ga of the Civil Code. (Towle
VS.. Am. b. l.. and INV, Sec. 81. Fed. Rep.
4i6.)
Second-That such a corporation may
continue to do business without imme-
diately scaling the book value of shares;
provided. however, an apportionment OF
its losses must be made at least annually
in accordance with Section 642 of the
Civil Code.
Third-As the law requires the ap-
portionment of profits and losses to be
made, the same may be made by the di-
rectors, without vote of its Shareholders

AttOrney-General.
EDUCATIONAL QUALIFICATIONS.
L. W. Fuikirth. Esq, District attorney
of iStdnisiduS COttnty-DEAR SIR: Re-
plying to your favor of recent date. and
TO your question as TO whether or not the
educational qualification of Section l of
Article |. of the Constitution. and of sub
division IA OF Section 1896 OF the Political
Code should be enforced against appli-
cants for naturalization under the
naturalization laws of the United States,
| am of the opinion that the educational
qualification provided for in Section l of
Article |. of the Constitution, as amended
on Novem ber q, 1894, relates exclusively
TO the exercise of "the privileges of an
elector in this State" and has no connec-
laws OF the United states.
Subdivision ii of Section 1896 Of the Po-
litical Code, as amended in 1895, simply
places restriction In conformity with
the constitutional amendment above re-
ferred to upon the registration OF an
elector, and does not in any way affect
an applicant for naturalization under the
naluralizati ton laws of the United States.
Respectfully, w. +. FiTZGERALD,
Attorney-Generai.

Judge Hfnkson Declares He VIII Not
Tolerate Delay.
Judge Hinkson, of Department Three of
the Superior Court. fined Deputy Sheriff
50 yesterday for delaying the proceedings
ten minutes. The delay consisted in not
having the prisoner TO be tried in court
at the hour set, 10 a. NJ. The deputy said
he could not get the prisoner up any
sooner. The court declares that that is not
sufficient excuse; that when the order
OF the day before is TO produce prisoner
at 10 the next day there is no excuse
short of sickness or a jail delivery that
will be sufficient. The court says that
the matter OF dilatoriness shall be broken
up and that officers, witnesses and aitor-
neys must be punctual.
