A CLEVER CAPTURE.
Officer Talbot Takes In a nan Sup
posed to be Wanted at ArbuckIe.

On the night of the 18th the little
town of Arbuckle, Colusa County, was
visited by burglars, and the hardware
store of L. 0. Johnson was looted of
over $500 worth of cutlery.
The robbery had been we'll planned,
and but for the appearance of two con-
stables, the safe, containing several
hundred dollars, would have been blown
open, as was shown by the fact that
hole had been drilled into the COM
bination lock.
The burglars, however, were not
asleep, and opened the war by firing at
the constables who were attempting
their capture, and easily made their
escape.
Yesterday morning Chief Drew re-
ceived an excellent description of the
two crooks from Sheriff Jones of Col
usa County, which he turned over to
Officer Talbot. That officer noticed that
Sheriff Jones had reported a conversa-
ton supposed to have been had with
one of the burglars, which related to
an emery wheel that he wanted deliver
ed at THE Times" saloon on Seventh
street in this city
Talbot was sure from the description
given that Tom Willis, who is said to
be an old rounder, was one of the. men
wanted, and laid his plans to entrap
the gentleman. Willis, who belongs at
San Francisco and Oakland, was in the
city about two weeks ago, but had
dropped out of sight.
Talbot kept watch at ''The Tines
for his man, and late last night was
rewarded. Willis walked into the sa-
loon and leaned upon the bar. and be-
fore he had time to straighten up the
officer had the wristlets on his arms
and was leading him away The de-
scription furnished by Sheriff Jones fits
Willis in every particular, and Talbot
is satisfied that he canno. be mis-
taken.
To the officer Willis admitted that he
had only just returned from Colusa
County, but claimed to know nothing
of any burglary.
If Willis is the man wanted in Ar
buckle, and everything points that way.
the capture was a clever one. and the
officer who made it is deserving of
credit. Sheriff Jones will be notified of
the arrest this morning, and it is pro-
bable that Deputy Sheriff will he
sent down for the prisoner before night

HOW To Play GOLF.
A Few Rules That Will BE of Aasist-

The most important thing, of course. is
the costume. After that comes the Scotch
accent. Both are expensive. but golf is
not a poor mans game. you know. Then
buy or steal your golf clubs. There are ex-
to start with. As to the custom. kits should

American or English golf suit will attract
sufficient attention to satisfy the beginner.
When you arrive on the ground you will
remember what you have come for. In
case you forget someone will probably re-

Dahlia a Popular Flower.

From Longman's Magazine.
The dahlia. named after the famous Swe-
dish botanist. Dahl appeared early in this
century, and was as popular in the flower
garden as were the camellias and fuchsias
in the greenhouse and still holds its own.
This plant. which is a native of Mexico,
was practically introduced into England by
Lady Holland in 1904. as 1t had been lost
since its first appearance some fifteen years
previously. when Lady Butte imported il
from Spain. During the first forty years
of its popularity double dahlias were all
the fashion, and since then the single varie-
ties have had their day. while ut the pres
ent time the new cactus kinds hold the
foremost place. A florist writing about 1896
compared the fashion for dahlias. which
was then NJ its height. to the tulip mania
two centuries earlier. and, although the
comparison is hardly correct. it shows the
to have even suggested II.
