ACCIDENTAL ASPHYXIATION.
James DriscoII is Suffering From an
Act of CareIessness.

James Driscoll, a well-known Sacra-
mentan. who has been lodging for some
wears with NJ. A. Howard, both at the
Eldred House and the Golden State Ho-
tel. is now suffering from the effects of
an accidental asphyxiation.
On Saturday night he went to bed a
little later than usual and did not arise
yesterday morning, according to his
regular custom. The chambermaid be-
came alarmed, as she smelled gas in the
hallway, and summoned assistance.
DriscoH was found in an unconscious
condition, with the gas jet partially
opened and the gas escaping. He may
have left it burning low and the light
have been extinguished by puff of air.
Fortunately the transom was partially
open. or he would have been smothered
to death.
A physician was promptly called in to
attend the unfortunate man, and on
Landlord Howards return from Fol-
som another doctor was summoned, and
last night there was every hope of eff
fecting a rescue from the effects of the
gas.
Drlscoll was SO years Of age on
Christmas Day last, and has always
been a reliable, industrious man. There
is no question about the affair being the
result of an accident.

a PROMISING CAREER.
1t Awaits Sacramento Boy i'm the
New Navy.

Among the cadets now in the Naval
Academy at Annapolis, Md, receiving
the training that is to fit them for the
naval service In the coming years, Sac
ramento is represented by one of the
most promising students, Cyrus Robin
son Miller, youngest son Of Frank Mil
Ter, the well-known banker
A recently published article in the
San Francisco Post" concerning the
daily routine of life at the academy,
also contained brief sketches of the five
California cadets now in that institu-
ton OF cadet Miller it says:
Naval Cadet Cyrus Robinson Miller
does the Golden State credit. He
stands No. 13 in scholastic merit in the
graduating class, which consists of six
ty members. His forte is physics and
chemistry, in which he stands No In
his class. In French, Spanish and Ger
man he stood No. 10.
cadet Miller has an important post
assigned him this year-that of mara
ger Of the boats crew. This sport has
the especial countenance of the Super
intendent, and this is to be the greatest
of seasons in rowing that the academy
ever knew. The famous Cornell crew
Is set down for a race with the acad-
emy eight, and other prominent events
are on the programme"

THAT WATCH.
Officer Pennish Replies to Willmun-
der'S Structures.

der'S Structures.
In yesterdays "Record-Union ap-
peared a communication signed oy U.
Willmunder, in which he crltlclses the
local police officers, and Officer Pen-
nish in particular. This communication
was brought about by published par
agraph a couple of days ago in which
it was stated that officer Pennish had
got on the track of a watch lost by
lady named Miller and recovered it.
Also that it was found by young man
named Willmunder Ca son of the writer
of the card referred to.)
In his card Willmunder said: If
these officers that get on the track
would get off the track and catch some
Of the petty thieves that infest the city
they would confer a great blessing on
the community"
officer Pennish feels aggrieVed over
the insinuations thrown out by Will
munder, and he made statement last
evening in which he said he wished to
call Willmunders attention to the fact
that it was in the latter's own hotel
that the officers ran down trunk OF
valuables that was stolen from Front
street by the notorious Gold Dust sa-
loon gang, and that it was Willmun-
der's own clerk who was mixed up in
the affair and who is now serving a
term in the State Prison therefor.
80 much for catching some Of the
petty thieves said Pennish- Now,
in relation to that watch Of Mrs. Mil
ler's. Nothing was said or published
calculated to involve Willmunders son
in any way. l was looking for Mrs.
Millers watch the day after she lost it,
and heard that a youth named Will
munder had it. went to Willmunder' s
place and asked him if he had any boys
and he denied that he had, but said
there was one staying there, but he had
gone away.
Then 1 asked him if his son had not
found a watch, and he admitted that he
had, I described the one lost by Mrs.
Miller and asked him if the description
answered that of the one found by his
boy. Willmunder went up stairs and
was gone several minutes. When he
came down he had something in his
hand, and asked me to again describe
the watch, which I did, and even let
him read the written description.
81 asked him to let me look at the
watch, but he hesitated about doing
so until finally I took hold of his hand
and then he let me take it. I saw it
was the one wanted telephoned for
Mrs. Miller and she came and identified
1T as hers, and then Wtllmunder let ker
| have it.
That is all there Is to the matter, ex-
Iaf he
| found it on Fifth street I suppose he
did, but Mrs. Miller thinks that some
body first stole it from her in the thea
ter ait the Brownie show, when the
| lights We're turned down. A breastpin
| that she wore was discovered nearly
| out Of her dress as she was going out
| She had the watch when she went into
| the theater."

a CHALLENGE.
A Chance for Strong Men to flake G
Nice Purse.

August w. Johnson, the champion
beavyweigh litter of the world, now
performing at the Clunie Opera-house,
announces that he will pay 500 to any
man in California who can duplicate
one lift out of eight done by him.
II. Lundin ssuhe Human Derrick as he
is styled, Mr. Johnson's partner in
heavyweight work. announces that he
will pay $50 to anyone who will lift
with his whole hand what he does with
his Mttle finger. Johnson believes him
self to be the strongest man IN the
world, and his victories over the most
noted lifters since 1891 would seem to
warrant his belief. He challenged San
dow. jefferson, Atlas, Cyr and Irwin in
New York to a test of strength, but none
of them responded.
Hjalmer Z. Lundin is a fitting mate
FOR Johnson in age, build and strength,
as his feats at the Opera -house have
testified. He became a professional in
1898, and has gained victory after vic

MAKING TAXABLE PROPERTY.
How to Add Fifteen Millions to the
Assessment Rolls.
What Would Result IL the Sacra-
meuto River Were Prop
erly Improved.

Referring to the proposition to have
the debris dredged from the channel of
the Sacramento River and that great
waterway rendered capable of carrying
off the freshets of the Sacramento Val
ley and its watershed, the Rio Vista
News" says:
"a better opportunity to do good
work was never offered to any legis-
laitdve body than to the present State
Legislature. If, through legislation
enacted by the present body Of law
makers, work for the permanent
improvement of our waterways is
commenced, and the doubt of swamp
lands being reclaimed In the near
future thereby being removed, a new
era Of prosperity can then be said to
have struck California
"The benefits to be accrued from river
Improvement can be said to be well
nigh incalculable. The valleys con-
tanning over a million acres of land,
the most FERTILE in the world, are of
boundless resources and capable Of sus-
tanning thousands where now hun
dreds live, If the one dread-fooding
by the overflow OF the riverside re-
moved
ITO appropriate the sum asked, $780,
600, would be purely business propo-
sition. The return in taxation from the
lands that would be benefited would,
within a very few years, double the
expenditure. In Butte, Sutter, Colusa,
American and Yofo Basins there are
about 1861 acres of land that are
oVerf1owed in years of average rainfall.
In the Sacramento Valley the partially
reclaimed swamp lands aggregate 115,
633 acres, which are equally subject to
the dangers Of flood.
If the permanent reclamation of
these lands was made feasible by first
improving the river that drains them
it would mean the addition of vast
sums to the wealth of the State. Plac-
ing the valuation Of the land at $50 per
acre, which would seem about the
minimum, the increase would be S15,-
UOO,OO0; If the annual rate of tax
alton. State and county, was 81 so 1t
would mean an increase of $225, 900 La
the revenue If 1T be assumed that this
land would produce fifteen sacks Of
wheat to an acre and the price was one
cent a pound, the annual income on
the swamp lands alone would be up
ward of S15, 100000.
THE possibilities are truly multitudi-
nous and 1t behooves our Legislature,
for the good of the State, to make pro-
visions to at least commence the work
OF river iInprov ement''

YESTERDAYS COURSING.
1t Was the Most Exciting Yet Seen at
the Park.

Thirty-six dogs were turned loose
after hares in Agricultural Park
yesterday - eighteen in each Of

Markham picked him up.
There was a big crowd present to wit
ness the running, and more than usual
enthusiasm was manifested.

all as correct and fair. w. NJ. O'Nel
