IF every man could live an outdoor life,
nassing his time with gun and tshing-rod
md canoe. there would be less illness in
the world Unfortunately, the demands of
modern civilization will permit very few
men to live this ideal, healthful life.
MANY men have to pass the day shut up
in offices and stores, and the nights in close
apartments in crowded cities. They get
little outdoor exercise. One of the results
of this unhealthy, sedentary living Is the
awful prevalence of that dread disease
consumption. One-sixth of all the deaths
each wear are due to this relentless enemy.
Formerly physicians pronounced this dis
ease iucurable It is now generally known
that there is marvellous medicine that for
fhe mast thirty years has been curing CON

The Government Remembers Two
VigiIant Officers.

Officers Douglas and Pennish were
the happiest men on the police force
last night, all because Uncle Sam keeps
his word and pays rewards when they
are properly earned, regardless of who
earns them
During the Christmas holidays last
year the mail bags from the Placerville
train which had been dumped on a
truck near the baggag age-room at the
railroad depot We're stolen, carried to a
point near the railroad bridge and there
rif1ed of registered packages of consid-
cradle value
A few days later officers Pennish and
Douglas arrested Andrew Wilson for
the crime, and wove such a mesh of ev-
idence about him that when taken be-
fore the United States District Court
he pleaded guilty and was sentenced to
four years Imprisonment.
The reward which went with the
capture 5000 came along yesterday
morning in the form of checks, S100
for each officer, and that is why the
entire force smoked at the expense of

Whereas, The political campaign of

ly indorse the entire city, county, dis

and feel that his nomination is a COM
pliment to our club and that his cleo
ton will be a benefit to the people of
the district, the county and the State
communication was received from
T. H. Berkey, Republican candidate for
Assessor, stating that if the club would
appoint one Of its members to distribute
his cards in the district embraced by
the club he would recognize him as his
appointee to perform such work.
Mr.. Berkey's communication received
the hearty approval of the club, and
L. H. Spaulding was appointed It was
decided that the same proceeding he
adopted in reference to all the other
candidates on the county and State
ticket
The President Of the club, DR.. Teb-
bets, wants a full attendance at the
next meeting of the club, on Septem-
Der 21st, and made a strong appeal
for the club to support the entire Re-
publican ticket.
The club of '9S has decided to hold
high jinks on the river some evening

to be announced at the next meeting

FATAL ACCIDENT.
Railroad Fireman Fred. p. Smith
Loses His Life

Fred p. Smith, a locomotive fireman
who lived with his wife and mother at
Fifth and n streets, in this city, lost
his life in railroad accident at a point
about two miles south of Sims Station,
on the California and Oregon line, about
IL o'clock yesterday morning.
The Portland EXTRA" freight train
in charge of Conductor D. w. Terrell
of this city, left Dunsmuir at 1910
o'clock, and all went well until Sims
Station had been passed. AT the point
mentioned the locomotive and eight
loaded cars left the track and rolled
down an embankment.
Engineer George E. Hanford and
Fireman Smith were in the cab when
the accident occurred, and both went
over the embankment with the loco
motive. When the train crew reached
the engine Smiths dead body was found
near it.
Engineer Hanford was severely,
though it is believed not seriously in
jured He was covered with bruises
and contusions, but no bones were
broken, and unless he received internal
injuries his recovery is only matter
of time. He is being brought to this
city on the Oregon express, which will
reach here this morning.
Fred P. Smith was married in Janu-
ary last to a daughter of Martin Wetzel,
janitor of the Court Of Records build
ing. He formerly lived at or near Co.
Iona, Ell Dorado County. Mrs. Smith
is reported to be in a delicate condition,
and has the sympathy of many friends
in her bereavement
An inquest on the remains of Fire
man Smith will be held by the Shasta
County officials, after which the body
will be brought here for interment.
Two Of the derailed cars were load
ed with lumber, the cargoes of the other
six being of miscellaneous character.
The light work about the engine was
smashed and broken, but the boiler and
other heavy parts are intact
The track was reported cleared at 10
o'clock last night, and at the usual
rate of speed the Portland mail ought
to reach this city about Z o'clock this
morning.

COUNTY TAX ROLLS.
They Will be Allowed to Stand as
Returned.

Though yesterday was the date set
by the State Board of Equalization to
listen to what Santa Clara County Off
cials and citizens might have to say re-
specting the property valuations of that
county, as fixed by it's Board Of Super
visors, nobody put in an appearance.
1t was hardly expected that anyone
would appear. 1t is believed that the
request for hearing was made in an
ticipation of the State Board citing the
county to appear and show cause why
it's assessment should not be raised
AS no such citation was or will be
made, there was no cause for an ex-
planation before the State Board.
1t is generally understood that in the
majority Of counties no changes will be
made from the returns sent in by Coun-
ty Auditors, and as little more than a
week remains for equalization work, 1t
is understood that no citations will be
issued this year.

HELD FOR TRIAL.
A. e. Ferre Bound Over for Assault
| With a Pistol.

The preliminary examination OF A. f.
Ferre, the drug clerk charged with as
sauIting J. J. Connolly with a deadly
weapon, was held before Justice Davis
yesterday.
Connolly, who is badly crippled with
rheumatism, testified that on the night
of August 2Sth, he was in the Palm
saloon, on K street, between Second and
Third, when Ferre and another man en-
tered Ferre. the witness said, seized
his cane and wrenched it out OF MS
hands and called him vile names. the
witness walked back to a partition ano
Ferre followed him, drew big re-
volver, which he called a Dewey,
with which he struck him three times
on the head.
Connolly's statement was corrobora-
ted by VIM. Drummond, the bartender
and partly by Mike Swisher, the latter
of whom left the saloon when he saw
Ferre draw the revolver.
Fred Kiefer was called for the de-
fense. He testified that when Ferre en-
tered the Palm saloon he took pipe
from the mouth of man in the saloon
in a joking sort of manner. He then
got hold Of Connolly's cane, and they
had a tussle over it. Ferre's revolver
dropped to the floor, and the witness
left the place. When he returned the
two men were fighting.
Ferre said in his own behalf that he
was taking the revolver home with him
from the drug store, having had it there
to give it coal oil bath. He had some
words with Connolly, and the latter
Struolx him on the head with his cane
He tried to take the cane from his as
sailant and the pistol fell on the floor.
Justice Davis held Ferre to- answer to
the Superior Court and fixed his bail
at $1,000.

ley last evening, on complaint of a
prominent young man, who asserted
that SO had been taken from his pock-

The Ballet woman inveighs bitterly
against frankie Mcmahon, sometimes
called frankie White, and claims that
1t was the latter who appropriated the
young mans coin, and that she Claude
BalleD has to stand for it all because
the robbery occurred in her place.
frankie Mcmahon is a white woman,
and the police will put her behind the

is said that after getting the money
she left by the way of the back door
