breeze blew down the back stretch
and the time made was not remark
able.
The feature of the day was the ,2:O4
pace. in which Hal Pointer, Mascot
and Reubenstein started. In the
morning auctions Pointer and Mascot
sold at $50 each and the field, Reuben
stein and Directly, at 81. In the books
! Mascot started a strong favorite.
After the first heat Pointer sold a
| favOrite against the field at % to TO-
Reubenstein was almost neglected in
! the books. When he took the second
! heat, however, he became an even
money favorite and in the fourth heat
was at prohfbitive odds. Pointer took
the first heat in hollow style, barely
crossing the wire. After that it was
all Reubenstein, although Mascot gave
him brush in the fourth heat. The
brown horse, however, was never in
danger. Onoqua was strong favorite
in the 4-year-old, but the best she did
was to win the first heat by nose

COLORADO FUEL AND IRON co.

NEW YORK, July 26.-The New
York stock exchange has listed $780,
900 additional common stock of the
Colorado Fuel & Iron company, max
ing the amount listed 81 100000. The
company recently sold 100000 of its
general mortgage bonds and 100000
shares of stock to pay off loans, divi-
dends, scrip, etc. The remaining 10000
shares OF stock have been useo 10 ac-
quire additional coal lands and other
property in Colorado. The company
will on August 1 redeem the 100000 of
dividend scrip that is issued for two
semi-annual dividends of 4 per cent,
each on it's preferred stock. That stock
now carries 8 per cent on the dividends
accrued, to which 4 per cent will be
added on August 1, making the total
accumulation u per cent. The COM
pany has abandoned the policy of is
suing scrip for these dividends but will

Brady Found Hiding Under a
Bridge.

Bridge.
SACRAMENTO, July &c. - John
Brady, the outlaw who robbed the
Oregon express about four months ago
and is also believed to have murdered
Cornelius Stage, at Ingleside previous
ly, was captured near CORTLAND today
by deputy sheriff and a ranchnaH.
Posses of officers, detectives and citi-
zens have been scouting the country
for months in search of Brady, but
the highwayman has hitherto baffied
all his purSuerS. His captors found
him hiding under bridge. Wrapped
up in one of the bundles carried by
Brady was the shotgun stolen from
the WellS-Fargo messenger at the
train robbery near Wheatland. The
gun is stamped ''Wells-Fargo & Co."
and has been positively identified.
Brady says he found the gun in a pond
near Lojdi. Brady is now in the coun-
ty jail. Brady and his confederate
were known IS the bicycle robbers"
and after, as alleged, committing a
number of robberies at roadhouses,
murdered Stage At the Wheatland
train robbery the confederate was
shot ard killed by Sheriff Regard, of
Tehama county, a passenger on the
train. Brady then killed the sheriff
and escaped with few hundred dol
lars obtained by holding up the pas
sengers. Great excitement prevails
here and the Jail is surrounded by
hundreds. To keep the crowd out the
sheriff has been obliged to lock the
doors Brady has been positively
identified by passengers on the train
and others. He said: Il am the man
they are after, but they are mistaken
in thinking L robbed the train or killed
Regard
He says he evaded pursuit because
he got a bicycle from San Francisco
at the time of the robbery, and he
thought this would convict him. Brady
is the exact counterpart of the photo
graph furnished to the police.

INSANE WOMAN.
She Makes "a Desperate Attempt to
Murder Her Two Daughters.

Murder Her Two Daughters.
TACOMA, Wash, July 26.-Mrs.
Elizabeth Wildgrub, of Lake Bay,
made a desperate attempt last night to
murder her two daughters, aged Z and
10 years respectively. While the chill
dren were sleeping the mother went to
their bedside and attacked them with
a Ratchet, cutting and hacking them
with the strength born of insanity.
The children struggled for their lives
and succeeded in escaping out of
doors. With gashes in their heads,
arms and bodies, with blood flowing
from the wounds and with nothing but
their night clothes to cover them, they
sought refuge at the house of a neigh
Dor a mile away. Mrs. Wildgrub will
probably be sent to the asylum as it
has been known for some time that she
was insane

SAN FRANCISCO, July 26.-Ho
Tung, a Chinese banker of Hong
Kong, who figured in the unsuccessful
negotiations in England to float the
Chinese war loan, arrived from the
orient on the steamer City of Pekin
and is en- route to New York and Lon
don. In discussing the effects of the
war, he says the official days of Lii
Hung Chang are numbered and in
chnes to the belief that the country
| may be engulfed in a revolution. He
bases his prediction of internal strife
not only upon the general discomfort
of the people but upon the superstition
Of the masses.

eff revolution does arise" he
said, 81 think little book published
about $50 years ago will be one of the

having faith in it's lessons, he thought

the book was written. 1t contained
prophecies and hints of what the fu-
ture would bring forth, and among
other things predicted that the dy-
nasty would disappear during this
century. Some prophecies in the book
have practically come to pass, a fact
that has impressed itself upon many
a superstitious mind. 1t is for this
reason that the book may have a great
influence at this late day upon the
masses if circumstances are propitious
at the time of any incipient uprising.
Still, 1 would be surprised to hear of
a revolution. The best thought of the
nation desires to rehabilitate the
country and its interests in a peace

A Family Stain.
Ii Hung Changes enormous wealth
Ho Tung says, has much to do with
the great viceroy's declining popular
ity. Besides, there is a stain on the
honor of the family, as the viceroy's
brother was compelled to resign from
office on account of a general belief
that he was corrupt. The Chinese be- /
