 "Skeets'' Martin landed the opening purse for sprinters at six furlongs with Sly. The mare was an 11-to-5 favorite, and heading the 50-to-1 chance, Widow Jones, in the run home, won ridden out from Judge Stouffer, second choice in the betting.

BALD.FACED SATSUMA FIRST Dr. Rowell's Chestnut Horse Won the Rich Burns Handicap. The Winner Piloted in Masterly Fashion by Jockey H.
 Shields. Buck Massie Was Unplaced-won't Dance Ran . Great Race, Fin
 ishing Second.

Satsuma, the bald-faced son of Mac Duff, captured the richest prize of the California turf at Oakland track yes terday. Nearly 10000 people frantically cheered Dr. Rowell's great chestnut horse as he led Won't Dance under the wire
 The event was a handicap, and the allotment of weights was the cause for an onslaught of many naughty things hurled at Handicapper Brooks. Not withstanding all this, it was one of the best contested races ever run in Cali fornia, and Jockey Henry Shields and Satsuma are heroes of the hour.
 The big event of the day was fifth on the card and ten horses accepted the issue. The Burns & Warehouse pair, Traverser and Candelaria, held first place in the betting at odds of to 2. Jim Murphy told all of his friends to have bet on Buck Massie. and the hero of many an equine battle was second choice in the betting. The Mon tana people thought we'll of the chances of Ostler Joe, and eagerly accepted the s to 1 offered about him. Ed Corrigan went out of his way to say that Won't Dance had an undeniable chance, and when the daughter of Longfellow fin ished second the books winced. Against Satsuma, with Shields up, the ring laid 10 and F to 1.
 It was after o'clock when the horses were summoned to the post, and full twenty minutes had elapsed before Starter Ferguson released the barrier to a perfect start. AS prophesied, Traverser passed the stand first, fol- lowed by Buck Massie, Fonsovannah and Ostler Joe Soon it became appa rent that Fonsovannah was sent out to kill off Traverser, and three furlongs from home the hopes of Pa" Bradley were blasted-TraverSer was beaten. The chestnut, however, led Fonsovan- nah into the stretch, with bald-faced Satsuma at their heels. Henry Shields or the latter rode the race of his life, and gradually taking command the long-limbed rider piloted the outsider past the winning post head before Won't Dance, the mile and quarter being negotiated in 2:071s. The latter mare ran a wonderful race, for as the stand was passed the first time she was last of the bunch Thorpe brought Candelaria up from the far rear. taking third place.
 Shields, the rider of Satsuma. re- ceived a great ovation on his return to the stand, and richly he deserved it. for never was a horse better handled. The winner was decorated with handsome floral horseshoe placed over his neck by Thomas H. Williams Jr. president of the jockey club, and pr.

laid, and at the paddock had the race won. Dorsey then got gay and was beaten out a head by Midian, the sec- ond choice, with ''Skeets' Martin in the saddle. The favorite, Colonel Dan, was killed off the first part by Free Lady.
 The mile and a sixteenth. decided un- der selling conditions, proved only a gallop for the 11-to-10 favorite, Buckwa, piloted by Spencer. Purser's big geld ing was in front all the way and won romping from Alvarado II. The heavily backed Bonita finished in the show, be- ing outfooted from the start.
 Recreation was favorite for the six furlong handicap. but Thorpes ride proved decided innovation and she ran unplaced. At the end McLight, with H. Martin in the saddle, led May W out half length, with pounds to spare.
 The final six-furlong sprint went to the to 10 favorite Refugee, which won easily. Robair took the place from Break O Day in a drive.

 The other day an old fellow, charged with grand larceny, was on trial in one of our Superior a Courts. It seems = ymppySoNED a that he and wis.,
 iting Englishman Q bUi NOl had been out talk DISHONORED. ing in the town o with the result Q o o o o o Q that they both had become so full that they could not bend over without spilling. In this con- dition they separated and the Briton went to bed, where he slept off the effects of his debauch, arising in the morning to discover that he had a big head and $6O less than he counted upon. He at once jumped to the conclusion that his com. panion of the evening before had touch ed" him, so, after hunting up a drug store to get something for his nerves, he hunted up a detective and had the fel- low arrested and employed special coun- sel, in the person of a little shyster, to prosecute him.
 As the evidence proceeded 1t proved more and more that the poor old fellow was as innocent of any theft as a babe and that the extent of his shortcomins began and ended with bottle. Finally he r..nself was placed on the stand and the Aprosecution realizing that, unless something unexpected was developed, they would lose their case, put him on the rack and subjected him to a cross- examination that was simply barbarous. He, however, managed to pass through 1t all right and the little lawyer was about to conclude when a happy thought seemed to strike him and he said, Were you ever in prison before in your life?' 'I was" replied the defendant. Where, when and on what charger" asked the lawyer, as a smile of triumph mantled his features and he glanced toward the jury as much as to say, Pay close attention; the unexpected which I have been work ing for is about to develop" And it did, With a sudden stiffening of his whole frame and with flash of fire from his old eyes he answered, in voice that fairly rang with martial feeling.

Charged With Murder

On Wednesday last Sheriff
Clyburn went to the Halle Gold
Mine and arrested Joe Wade.
Sebron Jones and Hattie Kirk
land, all colored, charged with the
murder of Sam Kirkland, who
was murdered ut the mine one
night several weeks ago.
1t will be remembered that it
was thought until the inquest was
being held that Kirkland had
committed suicide but an eXami
nation of his pistol showed that
it had not been fired, and the
autopsy showed the ball in his
body to have been of smaller
calibre than the pistol on his per
son. 1t has since developed that
iNlrkland's wife, Hattie, gave Joe
Wade. with whom she is alleged
to have been on too intimate terms,
n pistol OF the same calIbre as the
ball found IN Sans BODY. 1t
has further developed that Wade
was seen crossing Il small branch
in the vicinity, and going in the
direction of the roasting furnace
she'd where Sam was killed. that
night before the killing. These
and other circumstances. which
are withheld for the present, have
ed to the arrest of the parties now
in Jail. Other arrests may be
made soon.
