WHEEL NOTES.
Getting Ready for the July fleet
Going to the Woodland Races.

The Race Committee Of the Capital
City Wheelmen visited the Oak Park
athletic grounds last evening and had
a conference with Manager Morton con-
corning the 9th of July bicycle meet.
Many of the riders who will take part
are already in training, and can be seen
early every evening spinning about the
track
Manager Morton is rapidly bringing
up the ends of completion of the
grounds, and they will be, he says, in
greatly better condition on the 9TH of
July than they were on the 9th inst
The racing men all over the coast are
making inquiries about the meet, and
the outlook is for an afternoon of
speeding even better than that just so
successfully given.
A good deal of interest is manifest
in local wheel circles concerning the
professional and amateur meet at
Woodland, the 18th inst. There will
be some of the best of Sacramento's
riders on the track that day and all
the Olympic circuit riders, including
Ziegler, Russ, Jones, Davis and the
others. Local wheelmen are preparing
to go over to our neighboring town on
that occasion, and have arranged with
the Southern Pacific Company for a
round-trip rate to Davisville by the
D a. m. train of 80 cents for fifteen
persons and all over that number.
Those who contemplate going should
leave their names with G. j. Atwater.
Fifth and K streets. From Davisville
the run to Woodland will be ''a-wheel'

Captain Shaw.

alley. A crowd was following. He
wore a blue blouse and a straw hat.
He could not swear that All Sing is the
man who entered the alley, but in
general appearance he resembles him.
A man named Stuffe, railroad man,
testified that he was on 1 street, near
Second, when the shooting occurred.
His destination was a beer saloon.
There were two other men with him.
A Chinaman passed him with a pistol
IN his hand. Witness and the other
men were all hiding behind telegraph
poles. One of witness companions
called to him to stop the Chinaman.
Witness replied: Not on your life."
He would know the Chinaman if he
saw him.
The Chinaman came from behind the
west end of the freight train diagonal
ly across to the corner where witness
was standing After turning into Sec
ond street the Chnaman broke into
a run and turned into the alley. There
was a bright electric light there, and
witness had a good look at him.
The prisoner was then made to stand
up, and the witness said he was posi-
tive All Sing was not the man who
passed him on the corner, for he Ghe
witness) did catch hold of the mans
sleeve, and the latter stopped, so he
had a good look at him. The China
man wore a straw hat with black
band and in his hand was a smoking
pistol
DR.. G. A. White, County Physician,
explained the nature of the deceased's
wounds
Young Sing testified that he occu-
pied a front room in the Fong Duck
Tong headquarters. He is a cook, but
now out of work. Had known All Sing,
the prisoner, about a year, and also
knew All Chung, the deceased. Did
not see the shooting, but heard the
shots. Was a half block away at the
time.
On hearing the shots he asked a man
what it meant, and the latter told him
All Chung had been shot by All Sing.
He then told the police that All Sing
was the man, and pointed him out to
them. He does not know the man who
told him Sing was the shooter
The next witness was Lee Yong
Sueng, cook. He testified that he
was on his way to a Chinese store to
buy something. He heard two shots
and stopped. Ju All Sing came along
with a pistol in his hand and ran to-
ward Second street. After that he
heard two more shots. All Sing had
on blue blouse and black felt hat.
Witness heard more than ten shots
in all. He saw one man fire from be-
hind telegraph pole and another from
beneath a car
officer Douglas testified to about the
same effect as did Captain Fisher. AS
the deceased's body was being placed
in the dead-wagon four or four China
men came up and told the officers to
hurry and they would show them the
man who did the shooting. They point
ed out Ju All Sing as the man who did
the shooting and he was arrested.
This concluded the testimony, and
the jury retired for deliberation. They
found that Eung All Chung was killed
all right, but by parties unknown.

CHRISTIAN ENDEAVORERS.
Renewed Activity Among the Local
SOCietieS-The RehearsaIs.

The committee of Christian En-
deavors having in charge the matter of
subscriptions for decorations and
souvenirs have been meeting with good
success among the business men of
the city, and it is now safe to say that
II the same success is met with in the
future that the city will be creditably
dressed for the occasion of the conven-
ton days.
The latest information from the
transportation section of the Committee
OF ~ is that every State delegation
registered thus far is to come over the
Central Pacific and through Sacra-
mento. 1t was originally supposed that
at least one-third of the delegates and
visitors would come by way of Los
Angeles, but unless there is an early
| change the Southern city will be left
out so far as State delegations are con-
cerned. This condition of affairs is an
additional reason for increased interest
in Sacramento.
In the way of local society work the
union meeting to be held at the Con-
gregational Church at o'clock Sunday
evening, July 4th, will be an event Of
unusual interest. The lecture of DR.
Welles, who is the Secretary of the
Life-Saving Division of the United
Society of Christian Endeavor. will be
given in lieu of the regular Sunday
evening church service at the Congre-
gational Church, and it will doubtless
be well attended
DR.. Welles is to lecture in San Fran
cisco on the first night of the conven-
ton, and will use stereopticon views
here and there also. No charge will
be made, but collection will be taken
up for the benefit of the fe-saving di-
vision.
Inc sacramento division of the great
choir is making fine progress under
the direction of Miss Ida Clinch. and
the rehearsal last night was very graf
flying. Miss Clinch will go to San
Francisco on Saturday to confer with
the general director and obtain de-
tails of the programme.
There will be a meeting of the Re-
cept1on Committee on the evening of
the 18th to take definite action. at
which time Robert Cleland, Chairman
of the transportation division. will be
present to drill the committee.

DR.. Look. who was called the next
day to attend the child, said he found
her legs bruised and somewhat infiam-
ed. One mark looked as if made by
something flexible The marks might
come from light or heavy blows. 1t
would depend upon the constitution of
the child.
Miss Bernard testified that the used
small rattan of bamboo and might
have struck the girl on the calves, but
did not intend to. The girl did not
scream any and came back to school in
the afternoon. She had since told that her
mother whipped her with strap that
morning. The father had said that if
she would pay the doctors bill he
would drop the matter. She considered
the whipping a light one, and she
never switched a girl hard. She was
cool and paused between times to ask
the girl to confess.
Misses Fay and Eilers, two of the
teachers, corroborated her statements
and did not think the whipping was
hard one. They were present at the
time. The girl has since confessed that
the charges she had made against the
Azavedo boy were totally untrue
Several other teachers testified that
their doors were open, but they heard
no indications that punishment was
being inflicted; further, that Miss Ber-
nard never loses her temper.
Director Brown, the Chairman, said
the teachers had been requested to be
present in order to show how the disci-
plne of the school was carried out and
that children were treated alike in the
matter of punishment.
The meeting adjourned after some
talk and the committee will report on
the matter at the next meeting of the
board

THAT WHIPPING.
The School Directors Investigated II
Last Night.

The Committee on Rules and Regula-
tions of the City Board of Education
held az special meeting last night to
investigate the charges made by John
Crestenno against Miss Bernard. Prin-
cipal of the Lincoln Primary School.
that she had too severely punished his
daughter.
Mr.. Crestenno charged that his
daughter. was whipped at school and
his wife called his attention to the con-
dition in which the girls legs were
that night, and that they We're covered
with red and black stripes. When he
went to the school his daughter show
ed him a stiff stick as large as his finegr
and covered with joints, which she
said she was whipped with.
Mrs. Crestenno claimed that the girls
legs panied her so when she came home
that she had to go to bed and a doctor
was called to see her the next night.
Her legs We're much swollen.
Mrs. Encones, her sister. testified
similarly. The girl and her sister re-
cited the facts of the whipping and
claimed it was hard one.

NOTES OF TIE BALL FIELD.
The COrkerS and Lodi Team to Play on
Sunday.
New Diamond Laid Out on the Oak

Notes.

Yesterday afternoon arrangements
were completed whereby Sacramento is
to have her share of the State tourna
ment baseball games. The first game
of the tournament series win be played
next Sunday afternoon on the Oak Park
diamond, the contending clubs being
the Corkers of this city and the strong
Lodi team.
The CorkerS are well known to Sac
ramentans, and the Lodi team is said
to be composed of good material, in
Guiding the pick of Stockton players.
Owing to the additional expense of
bringing players from abroad to play
in Sacramento the admission to all the
tournament games will hereafter be %
cents.
In addition to the game between the
Corkers and LodiS there will be a sec
ond game played Immediately after the
conclusion of the first, the one admis-

interesting game of ball between the
picked nine of the Sacramento Athletic
Club and the old champion Knicker-
bockers. The members of the latter
club have not taken an active part in
baseball for some years, but the pres
ent revival has been too much for
them, and they are anxious to play
another game. The members of the
original knlckerbocker team are still
residents of this city, with the excep-
tion of Frank Ooc) Dugan, and are
as follows: Will E. Neubert, c.; George

will put up a fine game.

gagged during the past week in laying
out a new diamond on his Oak Park
grounds. 1t will be about forty yards

grounds thoroughly leveled and
scraped, but Mr.. Morton says he will
