Couldn't Stand Adversely.

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, April IT,
James Hunter, who has followed the
turf for many years, is supposed to
have staked his life on Gold Bug, his
tavorite racer. The horse who started
in race at the Oakland track on
Thursday, made gallant struggle, but
there were faster horses in the field.
The defeat meant much to Hunter, who
is now missing. His friends believe
that he has forfeited his life because his
horse lost the race.

INTELLIGENCE here from Chins is to
the effect that high tariff will be i'm
posed on imports from this country a
great many American products are now
exported to China, but as the Dingley
bill puts high duties on articles import
ed from China, and as one bad turn
deserves another, Americans should not
be at all surprised if their products be
taxed in China, snd the sale thereof, of
course, be restricted.

only one way to cure deafness, and that is by

THE wHEELMEN COMPLAIN.
Several Inconvenience Experienced by
Our Wheelmen.

Our Wheelnen.
A great deal If complaint is being
made by the wheelmen of this city in re-
gard to small pieces of wire which are
being thrown on many OF tine principal
streets by the linesmen of the telephone
companies who are cow fixing the wires.
This wire is very dangerous enemy OF
bicycle tires and when it does puucSure
tire it makes right largo hole which
costs something to fix.
Another thing our wheelmen com
plain of is the glass which is very often
thrown on the streets by thcughtless
people. One place in particular we have
in mind at this time is on.Salem avenue,
about 40 feet east of Jefferson street. ut
which place the "Wheelman'' noticed
yesterday there is good deal of glass.
People should --sometime stop TO think
whether or not they are causing anyone
any Inconvenience by throwing glass in
the streets and especially people who do
not ride wheels should do this.
Why don't''the..city authorities see that
something is done to help the wheelmen
of our city in this way instead of ALLOW
them suffer in this unjust manner?
