Running Down a wounded Panther i.

Running
Slipping my rifle through the
screen of branches about me, took
a quick aim and fired. Down he
flung the goat one way and with a
snarling roar went flying, crashing
through the bushes in another direc-
ton. All, blissful moment that, as
scrambled in hot haste down from
the tree, for here was the very
cream of sport in prospect-an ex-
citing follow up of a wounded, dan
gerous beast Nothing beats it that
l know of for pleasurable excite
ment-that thrilling, watchful ad-
vance along the fresh blood tracks,
while your eyes search inteatly the
jungle on every side for timely sight
of the crouching, pluoky brute, and
the safety of your skin often rests
on the quickness of your eyes. And
of all animals, who can crouch COL
cealed like the panther, who more
ready to turn upon his foe, who
more tiercely brave in his attack,
even though wounded unto death?
But this time did not quite get the
sport 1 looked for. For had not fol-
lowed far before heard the panther
growing in tho thiokets ahead of
me. Judging from the sound as to
where he lay, l was able to make
my way safely round his flank and
so came within view of him stand
ing up and listening seemingly for
my approach, but evidently badly
wounded, and l easily killed him
with another bullet = Panther

Bestowed a power such

Such sweets to prove),
Then hast thou speech at wiz

Democratic Aspirants.

One issue that will further differentiate
the candidates of the two wings of the
Democracy will be the charter. Mr.. Di-
mond is understood 70 be against the new
charter and Mr.. Phelan for it.
Some of the partisans of James d. Phe.
Ian yesterday began an effort to make
political machines of the Improvement
clubs of the City by getting the Associated
Improvement Clubs to indorse Phelan's
candidacy for Mayor. As these clubs are
composed of citizens OF all kinds OF poIit-
ical faith, such proceeding would tend
TO wreck the organizations and its success
is not considered probable.
The Twenty-ffth Senatorial District
will have three Democratic candidates in
the held, Senator John Fay being in the
field for reelection as an independent.
Fay looked long and hard for the Junta
nomination, but he stood no chance with
the combined opposition of the Daggett-
Rainey- -Lanigan forces against him, who
put up John Feeney, an employe in the
Mint. Fay will take his chances against
both the Rainey and the Buckley canoi.

SILVER MINERS RULE.
They Have Taken Entire Charge of
the Democratic State Cam
paiRn.

J. ]. Dwyer, member from California
OF the National Democratic Committee
will be the principal speaker at Metro
po!itan Hall tonight at a mass meeting
arranged, advertised and held at the ex-
pense and under the direction of the Cali
fornia Silver campaign committee,
through the efforts of Chairman w. P.
Lawlor.
This is interesting chiefly as typifying
the fact that the Popocratic campaign in
this State in the interest of Bryan, free
silver and anarchy is being almost wholly
conducted by the millionaire silver
miners, and as illustrating the remarkable
apathy that characterizes the State cam
paign OF the Democracy.
On the word OF many ancient Demo-
cratic campaigners the present Democratic
campaign is the most hstless, fruitless and
unconsequential one in the party history
of the State.
The first reason is the remarkable lack
OF interest throughout the party and the
second OF the leading reasons is the fac
tional dissensions in the party and the
present faotional control OF the machine
by few scheming and ambitious poll
ticians.
The State Democratic machine is so i'm
potent through lack of party interest,
party unity and cooperation and funds,
and is so badly afflicted with dry rot that
the actual work as well as the expense of
the campaign has been turned over to the
millionaire miners who run and literally
put up for the silver party's machine.
The Silverites have money. They have
lots of it. Charles D. Lane, millionaire,
has taken sip from the seductive foun-
tain of politics and he has opened his
eyes with the thrill and felt the swell of
ambition within, as so many Western
millionaire miners have done before.
Lane asked the Pops with a generous wave
of his hand to take a whole Pullman
sleeper with him, and Lane will dash off a
fhousand-dollar check any day to help
the cause-and himself. There is AL
vinza Hayward, the Fair estate and a lot
of other wealth behind the Silverites.
And there's the Southern Pacific Com
pany which has George w. Baker, John
w. Mitchell and others Of its representa-
tives at the helm OF the Silver party.
The headquarters OF the Democratic
campaign are only nominally at the Cali
fornia Hotel. They are really in the Bald
win annex. They are magnificent head
quarters. They have extent and luxury
and some life. A long series of big rooms,
finely carpeted and furnished which were
long occupied by a big gambling club,
the headquarters.
There are no signs of poverty in the
looks of things or in the way things are

A TALE FROM THE SEA
Harry Rose Says He Was Bound,
Gagged, Blindfolded and
Shanghaied.
He Made His Escape in a Boat in
Mid.Ocean With the Assistance
of a Waiter.

For the past three or four days Detec-
tive Harry Reynolds has been hunting
around the water front in quest of a
Mexican bark manned by pirasical-look-
ing men, but has given up the search as
hopeless.
1t was all caused by story that Harry
Rose told and which has proved that
Harry is blessed with an extra ordinarily
powerful imagination. Still he declares
that every word is true.
Harry is Is years of age and stands 5
feet 10 inches in his shoes. He is en-
ployed in the Fulton Iron Works and a
week ago last Monday he left his uncle s
house, 9145S Devisadero street, to go to
work, but ne did not reach there. His
disappearance was reported to the police
and to the Joy of his uncle he returned
home last Friday night. To account for
his disappearance he told thrilling story,
which he nfterward repeated to the police.
He said while on his way to the iron
works he met a man who gave him 50 and
induced him TO go to a room in some
place he did not know. There he was
bound, gagged and blindfolded and at
night was taken in a hack to the water
front. He was put in small boat and
rowed out to vessel. They boarded the

yesterday. "In the seven days we caught
115 magnificent salmon, the average
weight of each being about four or five
pounds. They were not so very big, but
these tish are very gamy. Ny partner
caught one, for instance, and he Jumped
so much that he jumped right into the
canoe. l had one fish myself that jumped
no less than thirteen times. I have
hun ted and fished all over the country,
but never found q place where the fish
were so gamy as in that lake. They're
beautifully colored, too.
''The bears we got there were the brown
and cinnamon bears OF that couatry. We
saw no grizzlies. We didn't bave time to
go very far into the forests. One bear that
we shot there-a big fellow-managed to
get away from us. How seriously ne was
wounded | don't know, but at any rate we
couldn't find him. Prior TO going to
Canada was down in Cuba and hunted
considerably down there. There are q
great many ducks there, and hunting
these ducks is fine sport. But far finer
sport is hunting the alligator. had a lot
of experience at this and had a magnifi-
cent time. / killed three alligators. 1
suppose Pm not entitled to any particular
credit for killing them, because you know
anybody can kill alligators. Still, it's
fine sport; good deal of spice about it.
Il saw great many interesting things
in Cuba while I was there. While / was
In port there was big ship there loaded
down with 1900 rebel prisoners. Over in
Moro Castle there was a lot more. II you
get in there you stay forever. There is no
such thing as getting out.
II had intended when in Mexico, where
l was for some time, to have a try at the
Mexican tigers. But it was raining and
the roads were rough. My horse sank up
to his middle. I'm pretty heavy, OF course,
and it would be expected that u horse
would go down some in muddy roads,
but these roads in Mexico discount any,
thing on the earth that / ever saw before.
However, had some pretty good hunting
experiences there. ] was in the noun
tains of Vera Cruz and killed quite q lot of
game indigenous to that section. The
game included the vari-colored birds and
the small animals that inhabit the noun
tains of that tropical country.
ION my way here over the Southern
Pacific Railroad l saw in New Mexico and
Arizona large bands of antelope. They
we're beautiful sight as they moved
OF undulating prairie. l was so much
fascinated with them that think I will
go back there and hunt them for time,
then will go to New York, where / am
called by business, after which hope to
come back here and proceed on tour
around the world. | wanted to go direct
from San Francisco, but this business
matter of mine causes me to add 10000
miles more to my trip"

the sights. They intend visiting the park,
Presidio and some of the suburban places

AN oLD-TIME CROOK.

Charles H Davis Arrested for Robbing
Carroll Cook in Stockton.
Charles II. Davis, alias Strauss, a noto-
rious ex-convict, was arrested early yes
terday morning on the corner of Market
and Powell streets by Detectives Gibson
and Wren. He was taken 10 the City
Prison and booked en- route to Stockton.
He is accused of being the man who
robbed Carroll Cook OF watch and some
valuable papers during the Native Sons
celebration in Stockton.
Davis is 66 years OF age, and has long
criminal record. He was first convicted in
Troy, N. Y, in 1853 of robbery, and has
since served most of his time in different
penitentiaries on various ,arges. In 1892
he got four years IN San Quentin for bur-
glary. and In December last he got six
months in the County Jail for having bur-
glars tools in his possession.
