The Gilt Edge baseball team of this
city won a victory over the Santa

dispatch from there says:
The greatest game of baseball ever
played here was that to-day between
the Gilt Edges and Beachcombers. A
big crowd was present, all the sur
rounding towns being represented. 1t
was an exciting game from start to
finish, both infields putting up a mag
nicfient game.
The Gilt Edges were reinforced by
Eastern players-Hughes, who played
first, and McHale, who held down
second base. The batteries were Har-
vey and Stanley for the Gilt Edges,
and Donlin and Daubenbiss for Santa
Cruz
1t was a. pitchers battle, Donlin east
ly carrying off the honors, having
thirteen strikeouts to his credit. Only
three base hits were made off him.
Harvey had six strikeouts, and seven
hits were made off him. The home
team made four and the visitors three
errors.
Up to the eighth inning the score
stood / to l, but in that inning Burge
made a wild throw to Devereaux, let

Colored Mems Politics.

Eds. Record Union: Allow me to
reply to an article in your issue of the
9th inst, signed by l. Clinton Jones,
asking all negro voters to vote the
straight Republican ticket, and MAX
ing the assertion that no negro could
conscientiously and from a standpoint
of principle vote a Democratic ticket
L say that negroes in the United
states are numerous who vote a
straight Democratic ticket for the
same principles that actuate white men
to vote the Republican or Democratic
ticket The negro as race owes allegi-
ance to no party, creed or platform
but for the advancement of the prin-
cipleS that will advance US as a race,
socially. politically and financially"
We owe to them our support, whether
they be Democrats, Republicans or
Populists in local affairs we know
the best men who seek office, and
will vote accordingly, regardless of Mr..
Jones advice, let them be Democrats
or Republicans. JEFF. D. MAYS.

later at the Receiving Hospital to which
place he had been removed
Hansen had been respondent for sew
eral weeks. He was out of employ
ment, and some time ago attempted to
get Officer Naghel to interest himself
In securing him a pass TO San Fran
cisco
At that time he said he had neither
money nor friends, and intimated that
life was not worth the living.
Hansen entered the saloon in which
he swallowed the poison only a short
time before he was taken with convul-
sions. When found he was lying on
the floor writhing in pain. He had
lived in Sacramento four or five years
and had been employed in several sa-
looms as bartender. He had no relatives
IN this city, nor, so far as could be as
certained, in the State. The Coroner
took charge of the remains.

COSTLY FIRE NEAR TRUCKEE
1T STARTED YESTERDAY IN A
SNOWSHED.
Surned 600 Feet Of Shed and 900
Feet of Timber in Tunnel
Thirteen.

The Southern Pacific Company has
been hit pretty hard this year in the
snowshed section on the Central Pa
chic line in the Sierra Nevada During
the summer several disastrous fires oc-
CURED, destroying thousands of feet of
costly snowsheds.
The worst fire of the year occurred
yesterday, however, near the eastern
end Of tunnel Ii, between the Summit
and Truckee.
1t started about 600 feet beyond the
eastern end of the tunnel The prompt
arrival Of a fire train from Truckee
checked its progress in that direction.
but it burned the 600 feet of shed be-
tween that point and the tunnel and
then attacked the timbers in the latter.
The tunnel is 800 feet long, and the
IRE burned through to the western
end, where it was checked. by a fire
train sent down from the Summit. The
tunnel itself was filed with smoke and
gases so that no one could enter it
Superintendent Wright sent a big
force of mechanics, to repair the dam
age. but the condition of the tunnel is
not yet known. If the timbers are
only partially burned, and there has
been 90 caving of the earth, trains may
get through within twenty -four hours.
In the meantime passengers, mails,
baggage and express matter will be
transferred over the tunnel, where cars
will receive them.
Should it be found that the timbers
in the tunnel have been destroyed, it
Will take some time to replace them,
with the possibility of having fallen
earth to contend with, as the material
is Of a loose character. The probable
ity is, however, that the tunnel is in
tact
Should the tunnel have to be retim-
bered arrangements will be made, no
doubt, for the rapid transfer Of passen-
gers mail and baggage while the work
Is in progress. In any event the loss
TO the company will amount to many
thousand dollars.

A CITIZENS DUTY.
Sermon on Suffrage by Rev. s. =.
Carroll.

Rev. s. ]. Carroll, pastor of the
Sixth-street Methodist Church, deliv-
cred an interesting sermon last even
ing, taking for his subject Elections. ;"
He divided the subject matter into
three heads, Pagan Pauline" and
Political"
Mr. Carroll briefly told of the church
founded by John Calvin after his re-
volt from the established church, and
explained how his followers, particu-
larry in Scotland and England. set up
the horrible doctrine of predestination
or election-teaching that the election
or rejection of individuals had been
predetermined by God from before the
foundation of the world 1t was mere
ly a chapter Of Paganism dragged by
the ears into the midst of the Christian
religion. While some of the churches
still believe in the horrible doctrine,
it is not preached except in corners of
the Northern and Southern States.
The Pauline election, the minister
said, was an election through sanctifi-
cation and belief in the truth. The
embodiment of all spiritual and moral
truth was found in Jesus, and the per-
son who accepted Him accepted the
highest conception of truth
The minister spoke of the great obli-
cation which would fall on the voters
at the coming election He said there
was no dividing line between duty at
the altar and the polls, and all men
who vote on Tuesday should see to it
that their action and judgment would
be such as would meet the approval of
the Divine Master. The voters owe it
to the young boys and girls to pick
out spotless candidates and vote for
them. He advised his auditors to ex-
ercise their best judgment, and to re-
frain from voting for a man with a
bad record, even though he might be
repentant He said that conversions
just before election day are suspicious
things, and impressed on his auditors
the fact that men are chained to their
past records like slaves to a galley He
implored his hearers to vote only for
were above suspicion, and submitted
that the best platform on which a can
didate could stand was his past record
and that the best planks were honesty
and fidelity.
He said that men who wear the
brand of the Master ought to be
elected, and not those who were dom
mated by the saloons and the bosses.
He asked his auditors to so vote that
God could look down and see that they
who had been patient and obedient
at the altar had not nullified their
obedience by their acts at the polls.

WEARY OF LIFE.
Suicide of Charles Hansen in a

his life yesterday morning by swallow
ing two ounces of strychnine
A few minutes after s O'Clock Officers
Naghel and Hardy were called to the

boxes in the rear of which Hansen
was lying in commissions and nearing
his end The employees of the place
believed he had taken morphine.

for an instant and told Naghel that he
had purposely taken strychnine and
asked to be left alone to die. Before
he could explain why he had committed
the rash act he was again seized with
commissions and died twenty minutes
