OUTSIDERS FIRST AT OAKLAND
STAMINA BEAT ROBERT BONNER
AT 10 TO 1.

Perhaps the most astonishing thing
about the racing at Oakland yesterday
was the long price laid against Rubicon.
The previous effort of Lanigan's big
chestnut horse was in a short six furlong
scramble, and he cut very small figure.
However, in horse racing 1T is necessary
to throw OUT some trials. The going
yesterday was certainly to his liking, the
track being a sea of mud. He was asked
to beat Rosinante, Moringa and Frohman.
The first named mare was an unknown
quantity in slushy footing, and Moringa
looked the contender. AS on Monday
when u to 1 was laid against San Venado,
the ring got out of line and chalked at
one stage of the betting 212 to l against
Rubicon. AT post time, this had given
way to to 5. Piggott tossed the leg over
the Lanigan entry, and at once going to
the front was never headed, leading Ros-
inante out a couple of lengths in 1:42A.
Before half the distance had been COW
cred Moringa hoisted distress signals, fin
ishing a trashy looking third.
The other events, with one exception,
were below mediocrity so far as class was
concerned. Martello at 10 and Stamina
quoted at an equally long price were
couple of the prize winners. Rubicon
and Montgomery were the winning favor
ties.
Schreibers Ulm looked so nicely placed
that the colt ruled a to choice for the
mile selling run that opened the after
Moons sport. Bumped soon after the
start, he never cut much figure. The 10
to shot, Martello ridden to good advan-
tage by little Johnny DAILY, won at the
end quite handily from the rank outsider,
None Such.
After warming up like a cyclone, P.
Ryan's Cyril was sent to the front
warm favorite for the sprint next decided.
He finished third. Clarando with
'Skeets" Martin in the saddle, jumped
away in the lead, winning cleverly at the
wire from Good Hope.
Polka proved a false favorite in the
seven furlong run. Jerry Hunt, piloted
by Piggott, spreadeagled his field Ma
lay was second, two lengths before Dun
praise.
. The mile selling affair saw Elidad, the
one-time famous mud lark go to the post
faVorite. He became lost in the shuttle
and Stamina, a 10 to l shot ridden bv
Johnny Reiff, slipped in and beat the good
thing, Robert Bonner, two lengths.
One to three was quoted against RiIIv
the betting on the final six furlong spin.

Seattle, Wash. Nov. s.-The attention of
the state department at Washington has
been called to the case of Mark Everett,
an American miner confined in the pro-
Vincial Jail at kamloops, B. c., awaiting
trial on charge of stage robbery. 1t is
alleged that Everett was kidnapped across
the line from Republic. Wash, by Cana
dian officers. When within four miles of
the boundary, 1t is alleged, American Off
GERS overlook the party with the prisoner
and attempted to serve a writ of habeas
corpus, but were driven back by the Ca
nadians at the point of revolvers, and
Everett was spirited to the other side dur
ing the hours of darkness

Commissioners: and to the Honorable
Mayor and City Council: Gentlemen
\ Whereas, There have occurred in
Butte and vicinity several cases of
smallpox, and fearing further spread
ing of the disease, the Silver Bow Med
zeal association offers the following i'm
mediate suggestions for the purpose of
restricting it, and humanely caring for
those who are, and may become, af-
flicted:
"First-A rigid inspection of the city,
especially the lodging houses thereof.
"Second-The maintenance of a rigid
and effective quarantine of infected
places by competent guards, and pro-
vision made for penalties for unfath-
fulness of such guards.
"Third-We heartily indorse the i'm
mediate vaccination of the general
public as the best means of restricting
the disease, which, if done, is the only
absolute preventive.
"Fourth-The appointment of a suffi-
Gent number of competent physicians
for the care of the existing and sus-
pected cases, said physicians to be re-
stricted from interminglng with the
general public.
'Fifth-At present we don't consider
the disease has assumed sufficient pro-
portions to necessitate the closing of
the schools of Butte, but we would
suggest the close observance of all pu-
pills in attendance. and should any pu
pill become suspiciously indisposed the
case or cases should be Immediately re-
ported to the health officers.
'Sixth--We do not consider the pres
ent hospital provisions adequate or hui
name, and we would recommend the
immediate establishment and equip
ment of smallpox hospital common
surate with the necessities of a city of
60, 900 inhabitants. We would also sug-
| gest the establishment of a detention
hospital, where suspicious cases may
be held awaiting development before
| removing to absolute contagion

and referring to the character of Davis.

evidence was sufficiently corroborated to

months ago, after the stolen treasure had
been dug up in the outskirts of Winnipeg.
The case against him was worked up
by a Chicago detective named Davis.

The Poet Oliver Wendell Holmes
Witticism.

The great poet, Oliver Wendell
Holmes, once said, "If all drugs were
thrown into the sea, it would be all
the better for mankind, and all the
worse for the fishes" OF course the
genial poet referred only to poisonous
drugs as used by most physicians. He
certainly could not have meant all
medicines, for Nature, in her woods
and fields, has been most prolific in
yielding up her treasures Of harmless,
vegetable remedies for every disease.
The wonderful discoveries Of the ia
nous DIR. Greene, of "a Temple Place,
Boston, Mass, amply prove the fact.
Indeed, this skilled specialist in the
treatment of nervous, chronic and
lingering complaints, uses in his enor-
nous practice, absolutely no poison
Gus drugs, but confines his treatment
solely to the use of harmless vegetable
remedies His worldwide known
medicine, DIR. Greene's Nervura blood
and nerve remedy, is only one Of his
many remarkable discoveries. His
extraordinary sucress in curing dis
eases Of whatever name or nature, the
innumerable reservations to health
the use of the marvellous cura-
tive medicines as prescribed by DIR.
Greene, established beyond doubt that
Nature has provided remedies for each
and every phase of disease, and that
DIR. Greene, by his deep investiga-
and his enormously large expe-
Renee, has discovered and prepared
which surely and certainly
cure these complicated cases Of chron-
diseases. Any sufferer can demon
,trate this fact, as DIR. Greene gives an
he privilege Of consulting him, per-
or BY letter, absolutely free Of
,harge. IL you are out of health and
ave failed to be cured, see DR.. Greene
It once, or write to him freely and
about yourcase. Nou can do so
perfect and absolute confidence. He
viii explain your complaint and adj
'ise you what to do to be cured.

Strange Mania of a Baltimore Man.

and for protection from Italians, who
were seeking his life, he thought.
Some time ago he gave testimony in

murder, and ever since he has been
pursued by them. He has been in
various cities end had seen his pursu-
ers in the station when he left Boston.
He wanted to go to his uncle's in To-
