Hopoo oE The KITE.
Rain Again Interferes With the Races at
Old Orchard

Old Orchard
The "hoodoo" in the shape of unfavor-
able weather for the opening day which
SO persistently followed the Kite Track at
Old Orchard last season again put in its
appearance yesterday afternoon when the
first races of the present season were
scheduled to be trotted and paced. A
crowd of good proportions was III attend
ance.and one heat in the 23S trot had
been decided when the downpour' of rain
commenced and necessitated postpone
ment until today. hs
Three good events were on the card for
decision, the 2. SS trot 2 "a pace and 2.19
trot. The first heat of the 2. 3S trot was
called on time by Starter Jenkins, who
was assisted in the judges stand by DR..
Campbell, Charles K. Drew and Allen
Lowe, and seven starters answered the
summons. Elber was picked as the
favorite, while Lynn Bourbon, George S.
Clark and Bird Simmons were all fancied
by some of the knowing ones. The field
got away in good shape on the second at
tempt. Elber led all the way around and
finished an open length to the good, but
was set back to sixth position by the
judges for the reason that he paced a
large portion of the mile instead of going
on the trot. The heat was awarded to
George S. Clark, with Bird Simmons
second, time g 20 1-2
Nine starters for the 2. "a pace came
out, Bumps, Tirzah Ann, Delease, Annie
Shedd, Gem D., Jessie McEwen, Violet
L., Magnolisa Belle and Chestnut, but
enough rain had already fallen to make
the track dangerous in the opinion of the
judges and the field was sent back to the
stables without start, to be called at l

An unfortunate occurrence was the ,ex-

DIR. Baker said that he had narrow
escape from being born in Maine, because
he was born in Vermont His paper be-
gan with a physiological statement of the
direct effect of fatigue upon the brain.
If there is more waste of the bodily tissue
than can be properly eliminated this
waste, which is of course poisonous, exerts
it's baleful influence upon the blood and
thus upon the brain.
In regard to diet it was declared that
the American people eat too many pota-
and by occupying a good deal of space,
interfere with the proper nutrition of the
body. We may be termed a nation of
potato eaters who have weak nerves.
To try co do mental and physical labor
in one day, is likely to impair the quality
of both, and to result in nervous and
digestive prostration.
The emotions of the mind fatigue the
whole body. How weak one feels after
an outburst of anger. Anxiety, envy,
suspicion or any mental distress use up
the brain cells very rapidly and thus de-
posit nitrogenous matter in the blood and
bodily fatigue is the result.
The grand law of fatigue is that the
highest faculties are the first to weaken.
This is true of the finest muscles as in the
case of the voice in singing The will
mower is the first to yield to fatigue.
because it is one of the highest faculties
A tired man is lazy, physically, mentally
and morally. .Benevolence is a higher
faculty. Thus the liberal man on Mon
day morning is quite likely to be penuri-

acknowledgements place?
~ don't know anything about the Bran
nan-street place, except that l sometimes
stay there"
Other witnesses testified that Sato OBJ
tanned most of his help through the
Brannan-street lodging-house.
Continuing, Sato said that he started on
his first contract with twelve men, but
there we're others in that locality. The
first contract was to attend to twenty acres
Of beetS, and he was to receive 81 so ton.
The crop yielded $40 tons of beetS. There
was four months work on that Job, and he
paid his men 81 10.
According to these figures Sato and his
men must have lost $50, and the men
lived in tents and boarded themselves.
How much money did you make on
this contract ?"
II made SD"
Dam handed the memorandum of fig
ureS to the Interpreter to explain them to
Sato and ask him to tell where he got the
$500 to pay the loss, when at most he only
earned 500 the year before.
Sato was completely upset by the figures
he HAD presented to the Commissioners
In fact he broke down and acknowledged
that he had gone beyond his depth and
was unable to give any explanation OF his
testimony.
His next contract was ade in April or
May for the cultivation of eighty acres OF
beets. 1t was with Graham, and as he
only got ten tons to the acre, and worked
sixty men for two months and thirty men
for three months and twelve days, he lost
money on the contract. These men made
81 cents day. According to these figures
he lost $3664 20. Again Sato was confront
ed with the figures he had given, and he
gave very fimsy story of forty-eight OF
his men running away without their

VALLEY ROAD AFFAIRS.
The Stockton People Will Confer with
Attorney Preston About Rights
of Way.

There was no meeting of the Valley road
directors yesterday, as Director Robert
Watt had to be in Sacramento, and other
members of the board were unavoidably
absent. So quorum could not be gath
cred.
Meanwhile the affairs of the company
are going along nicely. The first batch of
rails are coming up the coast and will be
here this month. Locomotives, rolling
stock, ties, etc., will all be in readiness
just as soon as the rails reach Stockton,
and then construction will be started
without delay. In all probability the
month of July will see this work begun.
Chief Engineer Storey ana Attorney
Preston went to Stockton last night. They
are to confer with the Stockton CONNER
cial Association, which is ready to present
the company with rights OF way and other
valuable concessions.
One corps of engineers is engaged on
surveys of the Tuolumne River, with a
view to finding the most desirable crossing
on the proposed route. Another survey
ing party has returned from the Kings
River after running one line from Fresno
to that point. They are now back again
and making second preliminary survey,
either of which will be chosen. The party
at Hanford has finished it's work through
the smaller holdings that extend about six
or eight miles to the south, anu after strik-
ing a line into the open country, or extern
sive holdings, have been called back to
make another survey.

told the truth and that he was lying.
Seeing that the witness was becoming
sullen the line of inquiry was changed, and
in response to question Sato asserted that
he never came to San Francisco for men,
which was contradiction of the testimony
of dozen witnesses, who asserted that
Sato sends to San Francisco for cody Ia
borers.
Sato was sadly tied up when asked how
he could comply with the terms of his con-
tract to furnish 100 laborers and yet never
send out of Pleasanton for help. He said
he did not know how the men knew that
he wanted men. All he knew was that the
men simply came in and he put them to
work.
Commissioner Fitzgerald asked: "Would
you have sent to Japan if YOU had not
been able to get enough menu"
mo, | have no money to do so. L
would like to see the men who said [ sent
to Japan for laborers. If Yamamoto said
SO he lies. Others tell lies about me, too.
I'll see some of those liars and I'll settle
with them" Sato says he is a Christian
and goes to church, but he is out for war
with those who have been talking about
him. He said that on Monday morning
all the Japs in the hopyards went out on a
strike because Downing refused to pay
them their wages. He believes that Down
ing received the money from the Pleasan-
ton Hop Company and is holding out. He
said all the Japs are becoming dissatisfied
with the way the white men are beating
them and are now anxious to leave Pleas
anton and 90 to the orchards. He believes
that the men will not go back to work in
the hopfelds. If he were not in debt there
he, too would go TO the fruit orchards.
He told of another strike of a small Or
der. He went into partnership with a
Mr.. Meek and Graham to pick eight or
nine acres of peas near Haywards, and the
crew of nine men went out on strike be-
cause they were losing money, as they
could earn only 90 cents day.
Sato was on the witness-stand four hours,
and he is now convinced from what he
learned of the testimony of others that he
is being swindled. He left the Labor Bu-
reau vowing to get even with the men who
are telling stories of him to his discredit
and those who he believes are swindling
him. The investigation will be resumed
to-day.

trial in Oakland for committing the rob
berry in Garrett & Taggart's drugstore
there.
The evidence against Charles Ross was
chiefly in the finding of two diamonds IN
his pockets which were stolen from, Mac
Intosh, along with $40 in cash.. He was
held to answer before the Superior Court
in $4,000 bonds.
The only evidence against Walter Ross
was partial identification by Macintosh.
AS against that several witnesses from
Oakland testified that he was not IN San
Francisco on the night of the robbery, and
the Judge at once dismissed the charge
against him.
