Piled WHIP IN THE WATER
Mrs. A. P. Macarthur Punished

The Superintendent of the Baths Ex
plains That 1t All Arose From
Misunderstanding.

Swish, swish, swish went handsome
but stiff riding whip in the baths at
Bush and Larkin streets last evening about
o'clock.
1t was welded by fair hands sparkling
with radiant rings, backed by feminine
face expressing indignation.
By the side of the lady stood a gentle.
man with his hand on his pistol pocket.
The blows fell on the shoulders of
George P. Goetze, swimmer then in the
baths.
The whip was vigorously piled by Mrs.
A. P. Macarthur, handsome bride, who
has rooms at the Beresford, at Stockton
and Bush streets, with her husband, a
young man, who felt capable of inf1icting
all kinds of punishment on the swimming
instructor.
The grievance of Mrs. Macarthur was
that she claims to have been insulted by
Goetze in the baths yesterday afternoon.
Her charge is that he was entirely too ia
millar with her in words and in his con-
duct with her.
When she went home she, of course, told
her husband, and after an early dinner
they procured riding whip and re-
volver and together went to the baths to
mete out punishment to the unsuspecting
Mr.. Goetze. IL was at an hour when very
few people were in the baths, but the
scene did not lack in its dramatic features
for want of spectators.

ARCATA, CAL, June 1s.-The California
Dairy Association, with the cooperation
of the agricultural department OF the State
University, is holding its second meeting
in Hum boidt County.
The meeting is being held at the earnest
request of the citizens of Arcata and vicin-
ity who are very much interested in the
subject of advanced dairying. The uni
verSity is represented by Professors Wood
worth and Jaffe.
The convention opened with an address
of welcome by Thomas Devlin, to whom
A. P. Martin of Petaluma replied. Music
and recitations by local talent were inter
spersed between the scientific addresses.
The scientific part of the programme
consisted of an address on the COM
position of California creamery butter
by Professor Jaffe; Professor Wood
worth's lecture on bacteria and John
McConaghy's remarks on the feeding OF
cows. The remarks of each speaker were
followed by a general discussion of the
subject by the audience.
Later in the evening theory and science
were laid aside and the delegates wit
messed the highly interesting and charm
ing operetta entitled "The Dairy Maids
Convention" This was artistically and
cleverly presented by sixteen young
ladies of Arcata, who convinced the audi
ence by the ease and grace with which they
executed their respective parts that they
are not at all times engaged in skimming 6
milk.

"That man is villain,' said Mrs. Nc

prison where he will remain for long

Mrs. McElrath is loaded with letters
which she says she has received from jack
son and his relatives. She cares nothing
for him, so she alleges, and only wants to
get away from where he is. She gives no
explanation of why she came to Cleveland,
further than TO get rid of Jackson. She
has newspaper clippings giving accounts
of her exploits with the man now arrested,
and said that il anything is written in the
Cleveland papers she would be pleased to
have marked copy sent to her.

Three Members of a Posse Shot to

Their Escape.

LAS VEGAS, N. NJ, June 1S.-The facts
relative to triple tragedy at Liberty were
received here to-day. Tuesday. June O.,
two men broke into storehouse at the
Bell Ranch ana stole all the provisions
they could carry.
On the 18th inst. they entered Herzstein's
general store, in which the postoffice is
located, and stole clothing, provisions and
money amounting to $3.50. M. Herzstein
and Levi Herzstein, postmaster at Liberty,
and posse of men pursued the robbers and
overlook them thirty miles southwest
of Liberty. AS soon as the robbers
saw the posse they began shooting,
instantly killing Levi Herzstein and Mer-
lilo Gallegos and fatally wounding Placido
Gurnle. They also shot three of Herr
STEMS horses, and rode as fast as their
horses could carry them toward the Staked
Plains. 1t is supposed that the despera-
does are two men who were employed on
the Bell ranch.

ing. at Last Decide to
Remov
INTO "A THREE-sToRY BRICK
Consequently They Cheerfully Sign
Ten Years Lease With George
D. Toy.

1t is now finally settled that San Fran
cisco Is soon to possess new modern
market with all the latest equipments and
sanitary devices. The west side of Powell
street, north of OFarrell, has been Sc
1ected as the most promising site for It's
location, and yesterday ten years lease
of the property was signed between George
D. Toy, the real estate man, and the Un-
ion-square Market Company, a corpora
ton comprising the principal tenants now
doing business in the old Central Market
at the corner of Sutter street and Grant
avenue.
1t was the original intention of d. Sam
uels to lease the old Sutter-street building
from the owner, Frank J. Sullivan. Ne
gotiations between the parties are still
pending, but the market men. tired of the
delay and the uncertainty of the result,
have at last decided that it would be best
for them, in any event, to accept the offer
of Mr.. Toy and remove to more favor
able business location, where they could
enjoy the advantages of long lease at
reasonable rental, and of building con-
structed expressly with the view OF meet
ing their requirements.
Plans for the new building are now be-
ing drawn by Hermann q Swain, the
architects. Work uDon it will be begun
in ten days, and by the 1st of next October
1t will be finished and ready for occupancy.
1t will have frontage of 6S feet inches
on Powell street, with a depth Of 137 feet
inches. An L will run to o Farrell street,
giving a frontage there of "a feet, 6 inches
The building will be of brick, three
stories high and sixty feet deep in its front
portion, the remainder being one story
high, with skylights.
The two upper stories will be let for
lodge and Office purposes and arranged to
suit the wishes of the tenants.
In it's construction and equipment the
new market will in all respects be fully up
to date. For these reasons the market
men are greatly pleased, and Mr.. Toy is
calmly congratulat1ng himself upon the
contamination of a successful stroke of
business, which will make O material addi-
ton to the improvements of the City.

BET WITH THE GAMBLERS.

The Horse They Backed Was Always
Sure to Win.
sWhen l was in Colorado many years
ago." said New York who once lived
in Denver, "there was apparently no pre-
tense at fair play in horseracing. One
always knew which horse was going to
win by the way the professional gamblers
betted. The horse they bought pools on
always won.
"Once at race at Boulder the very
judges left their stand to bet on horse
named Master John that had lost two
heats. had already bought small pool
on the horse and was feeling rather shaky,
but their act reassured me. Master
John-won the next two heats with
an ease that showed he had been pulled
in the previous two. He STUN bled. how
ever, in the fourth heat and cut one of his
legs When be came out for the fifth heat
he could scarcely put the injured leg to
the ground. 1t grew worse instead OF bet
ter as he limped around the course, but it
was now the other horse's turn to be
pulled in and Master John won. He
actually passed the line at the finish on
three legs.
People who went often to the races if
at all observing, finally noticed that the
horses which were backed by men they
knew to be gamblers invariably won.
Those given to betting naturally availed
themselves of this knowledge and backed
the same horses. As l confined my bet
ting to pool buying didn't know whose
money | was taking, so | salved my con-
science in that way.
1.-THE gamblers finally tumbled to our
game and put up job on us. / wasn't
able to go to the races the day they did, so
profted by the experiences OF my friends
without loss. When they reached the
track they found all the best known
gamblers III Denver betting vocifer-
ously on certain horse. Accordingly
they put their money on that horse. To
their great surprise another horse won.
Investigation discover ed that the gamblers
either made but small bets or only pre-
tended to bet on the horse they appeared
to back, while they had understudies who
put their money on the horse which
proved the victor.
After that there was no more betting
on a certainty among the outsiders, for
they couldn't tell which horses the gam-
blers really backed. One of the outsiders
at his last race in Colorado, however, got

This is due TO the TACT that Secretary

SEEN NEAR Los ANGELES.
A Heavily Armed Stranger Who
May Have Been Muir
derer Dunham.
An Orange County Widow and Flor
ence Rancher Tell Plausible
Stories.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, June 18.-De-
tectives and peace officers generally who
were inclined to smile broadly at yester-
days report about Dunham, which ema-
mated from ex- United States Marshal
Gard, are now beginning TO hedge in the
best manner possible.
Judging from what appears to be re-
liable report, Murderer Dunham was seen
yesterday afternoon by Mrs. Jane Moore,
a widow, near the town of Fullerton, on
the Santa Fe Railroad, near the edge of
Orange County. Mrs. Moore described the
suspect as heavily armed. He asked for
something to eat and was waited on by
Mrs. Moore, who took a close survey of her
guest. He was heavily armed and was in
rough clothes. The supposed murderer
remarked during the meal that he was on
his way to San Diego.
A while before Dunham's arrival three
mounted officers who concealed their
identity rode up and inquired of Mrs.
Moore il she had seen an armed stranger
travelling south.
she had not, but thought the inquiry a
strange one, and when the armed stranger
did appear the lady was greatly impressed
with the coincidence, and Immediately set
about finding what it all meant. She soon
learned that Dunham was supposed to be
in this part of the State. and from a news
paper picture shown her by neighbor
declared that her visitor must have been
the original of the cut.
Mrs. Moore knew as little of the officers
as she did OF her armed, hungry man, and
it is not yet known who they are, but they
are believed to be officers from Santa Bar
bara or Ventura counties. These things,
coupled with the Gard story of the stranger
seen by the Florence raneher, give color
to the probability of Its truth. A report is
current here this evening that Sheriff
Nichols of Orange County is out with a
posse on the trail of the murderer, with
good prospects OF bagging his game before

SAN DIEGO, CAL, June 18.-Saldy
Lockwood, who owns land and q mum Der
of gold claims on the desert, arrived at
Warmers ranch yesterday with the news
that he had struck the trail of a man
travelling on foot in Santa Rosa Canyon,
twenty-five or thirty miles south of Wal
ters station, on the Southern Pacific on
the desert. The trail led due south
toward the Mexican line. From it's loca-
ton Lockwood believed the trail to be
made by a man either lost, crazy or fleeing
from justice.
Knowing that Dunham, the San Joge
murderer, was well acquainted with this
country, which he visited two years ago,
and believing that he would head for
Lower California if he esca ped the posses
in the nelghborhood of his crime, Lock-
wood decided TO follow the trail. He fol-
lowed it all that day and until noon the
next day, but found himself at that time
with only one drink in his canteen and no
feed for his horse. He was compelled to
abandon the trail then and made for the
"Coyotes" for a supply OF water and feed.
Lockwood said the man evidently car
ried something on his back, from the i'm
preston made by the shoes In the sand.
The tracks were toward the peninsula, but
out of the track usually taken by pros
pectors and others going to Lower Cali
fornia.
On his return to his camp at Borrego
Springs Lock wood found that the man
had been there and taken some food and a
package of smoking tobacco. He identi-
fed the tracks as those OF the man he had
been trailing southwark.
This action indicated to his mind that
the man was we'll aware OF what he bad
been doing and intentionally kept out of
the way of people travelling in those parts.
Lockwood says that an Indian at the
springs saw man several miles from there
whose tracks, when examined, answered
those that Lockwood followed. A detailed
description of the man will be obtained
from the Indian. The authorities at
Campo, on the boundary line, have been
notified by telephone of the actions of the
mysterious stranger, and party will go
out from there to intercept him if possible.
