WANTED FOR BIGAMY.
Charles ID. Smith Deserted His Wife in
Portland and Married "a Young
Woman Here

The police of this City and Portland,
Or, are making every effort to trace the
whereabouts of Charles D. Smith. an en-
gineer. who is wanted on the charge of
bigamy.
Smith left wife and two children in
Portland on November % in destitute cir
cumstances ard came 10 this City. He
was only here q few days when friend,
So muel Martin, introduced him to Julia
F. O'Kane, saleswoman in the Empo-
um.
Smith represented himself as an unmar-
ried man and paid such marked attention
to Miss O'Kane that when he proposed
marriage TO her on December 90 he was
accepted, and next day he procured a
license and they were married by Rev.
Father Hannigan of ST. Marv's Cathe-
dral. They went to live at the Lexington.
Two days later sister of the bride met
Martin and told him that Smith had mar
ried Julia. Martin was astonished and
told her that Smith had a wife and two
children in Portland. The brides mother
called upon Smith for an explanation,
and he admitted that he was bigamist.
Smith disappeared on Decem Der 81, TAX
ing Sail the money his wife had-and
her gold watch and chain with him. He
declared his intention of going to Mexico.

TWO QUICK STUDIES.
George Osborne and Walter Belasco
Learn Their Roles as the Play of
"Chispa'' Progresses.


Learn Thor Roles as the Play of
"Chispa'' Progresses.
At the Alcazar Theater last night George
Osborne performed a remarkable feat of
memory which in the last actNof "Chispa"
won him the enthusiastic applause of the
house.
Hugo Toland, who was cast for Zeke
Stevens, the heaviest role IN "Chispa," is
suffering from severe attack of laryngitis.
On Monday night he played his part with
difficulty, but last night, shortly before
the time for the performance to begin, he
lost his voice so com pletely that he was
unable to speak. hasty change in the
cast was therefore MAZE, George Osborne
assuming the part of Zeke Stevens and
Walter Belasco taking Osborne's role of
the Indian.
Both actors conned their lines during
the moments that they were not on t. Q
stage, and made sucn quick study that
Belasco, who had the smaller part, kept
it was not till the fourth act that Osborne
appeared with his book. There was a
litter as he struggled to read some of the
melodramatic lines by the glimmer of the
footlights, whereupon Osborne stepped
forward and explained that he had been
learning his part as the play progressed.
Loud applause greeted this announce
ment, after which Osborne stepped into
the wings and some of the other actors
held the stage for few minutes, while he
learned the rest of his lines. Both Os-
borne and Belasco acted their hastily
conned parts admirably

Finish From Sweet William-W.
Martin Plotted Formal.
rA&

Two favorites won at the track across
the bay yesterday, and that's pretty good.
Several others had narrow escapes from
getting over the line in front, but that's
poor consolation for their hackers. There
was the usual attendance Of regulars
present and q goodly sprinkling of the
fair sex in the grand stand, who shivered
through six chapters of racing. tor the
weather indicated that the mercury IN the
therm ometer was trying to land hard
right-hauder on zero.
The betting was crisp, sparkling and
newsy On several of the events carded
the men on the block acted as though they
knew something, handling the coin as
landlubber at sea would a porterhouse
steak. The gentry with the leather sacks
and q shade took the train for home
wreathed in smiles, and it is more than
likely the talent contributed again.
Seventeen three-year- olds tried the pa
thence of the crowd while at the post in
the opening five and a half furlong scram-
BILE. Adam Andrew was a to 5 choice,
but was beaten out quite easSy by Lost
Girl, a Is to l shot ridden by Mike"
Hennessy. Cappy with Sam up was a
good third.
Akin & Lottridge's Double Quick was
considered the most eligible of the fifteen
entries to the six-iurlong run that fol-
lowed. and was played down from twos to
TO favoritism. Isabelle showed high
turn of speed to the stretch, where she
collapsed, and Boreas, an 8 to 1 shot,
taking command, proved ar easy winner
over the first choice. Abb was third.
The third run, five and a half furlong
spin, was another lengthy affair as far as
entries we're concerned. Twelve galIoped
over the post with the Spreckels entry
George Palmer to favorite in the bet
ting. He won by sheer gameness and not
through the good riding OF H. Martin.
Taking matters altogether too easily, Mar
tin 9woke from his reverie the last fur
long and beat out the other Martin astride
Pat Dunnes colt Sweet William head in
a perspiration-raisi finish. 1t was al
together too close for comfort and health.
Ezekiel, a % to 1 chance, took a shy at
the pot and was Tapped on the second
horse.
Collins, the brown gelding, furnished a
sad disappointment in the mile and fur
long selling event. He opened equal ia
vorite at to in the betting with Fortuna
and closed slight favorite over her at the
close. Sloan had the leg IN, and if Col
Inns was possessed of any speed refused to
disclose it, for he carried he target from
end to end. Monita, so to l shot, was
first into the stretch. when Fortuna passed
the outsider and i'll drive passed the
stand neck in advance of Doyle and the
outsider. The distance was covered in :55.
Force of circumstances compelled Midlo
10 win the fifth number on the pro-
gramme. a seven-furiong affair decided
under selling conditions. Formal, with
Willie Martin up, was an even money
choice, but the wise coin wentin on Midlo,

NOTES.

There was quite u strong play on Mis-
trail IL carrying George Roses colors.
The colt ran fatterIngly to the stretch,
where he began to wobble badly, tnlsh-
ing beyond the money.
Jack Riley, the noted tipster, had a
dream in which he fancied Link Boy a ten
time winner. Dreams generally go in re-
verses, and this one proved no exception.
Charley Thorpe is rapidly becoming the
most popular rider IN California. whether
be sits asIride longshot or tavorlte the
horse receives liberal backing and gener-
ally gets piece of the money. the man-
ner IN which Charley, hustled along the
rank outsider Monita was invigorating In
the extreme.
Mrs. n. Bishop, whoever that lady may
be, possesses quite a good colt IN Ezekiel,
and if the son of Emperor OF Norfolk
would always pursue the money with as
much energy as he did yesterday he
would command greater respect In the
betting ring.
Mike Rennessv, who had the mount on
Ezekiel in the third event, was kicked IN
the foot by Emelia and quite severely
injured while the field was at the post
and the entry OF that flilg Will IN future
The track at Oakland is altogether two
hard and horsemen in general are COM
planning. Record smashing may serve as
a good advertising medium, but 1t brings
no coin into the pockets OF owners with
horses possessing unsound or uspicious"
legs. As a result of it, Fortuna pulled up
lame and Little Cripple demonstrated by
his showing that horses cannot run over
it two days in succession to good advan-
tage.
The Collins people had their checks
down on the gelding, but the track was
evidently too hard for his liking. He
could not untrack himself at any stage OF
the journey.
Draw Scot was on his best behavior at
the post yesterday and ran corking good
race. Somebody said that Barney Schrei-
Der told the old gray that if he did not act
pretty in future ne would send him back
to Woodland to be used as horse of all
drudgery.
Away from the post better Tim Murphy
would have been second and possibly bet
ter beyond a doubt. Stoney Clarke had
new magenta colors up on the old Splinter,
but they did not seem to change his luck.
Willie Martin, the Napoleon OF the sad
die, furnished another of those rides on
the back of Formal, odds-on choice for the
sixth race, that so endeared him TO far
eastern racegoers and ingratiated him in
the favor of the high turf officials in that
part of the country. Possessed of the
patience of professional fisherman he
waited and waited, and then waited again
with Pat DUNES chestnut and was beaten
out neck by NJ do. Willie Is quite
critic himself at the SUM ber:ng rides OF
other jockeys, so it is said, and it is no
more than right that the cook should eat
some of his own contrivlng.
Following are the entries for this after
moons running events:
