ABANDONED HIS TURKEYS.
Queer Conduct Of a Man From the
Country.

Officer Payne of the Humane Society
had funny experience yesterday. he
received a telephone message from Con-
stable Millard of Perkins to look out
for man coming toward Sacramento
with a load of turkeys and that ne
would find an aggravated case OF
cruelty to animals.
Payne went out to the city limits
and there gave the glad hand to the
turkey merchant from east of Hang
town CROSSING The latter thought he
had buyer for his turkeys, and made
no kick when Payne began to inspect
the outfit The officer found that in
the body of a common two-Wheeled cart,
3x5 feet square and only foot deep,
were jammed twenty-five live turkeys,
though many of them were then near
ly dead. They were piled several tiers
high and hald in by wire netting. Some
of the turkeys had nearly half their
feathers torn from them, and nearly
all were more or less raw and bleed
ing.
Payne then announced his business
and placed the man under arrest. The
latter gave two different names, but
afterward admitted they were both
L
him off by tending him several of the
turkeys, but the officer was inexorable
and started the man down town ahead
Of him.
When they reached Twenty first and
K streets the prisoner asked to be al
lowed to enter a house there, saying
the resident was a friend of his and
would go down town and give bond
for his release. Payne told him he
might do so, and the man entered the
yard and went around toward the rear
door as if familiar with the place.
Payne watched over the cart and
turkeys so long that he became weary.
and still the owner came not. Finally
the officer saw the woman of the house
| in the yard and asked her if the owner
of the cart was in the house. The
woman replied that there was nobody
| in her house. She did see tramp enter
the yard some time before, but he went
right through, climbed the back fence
and ran off through the alley.
That settled its so Payne got a boy
| to drive the cart to where the Humane
| Society maintain comfortable quarters
for just just emergencies. and the
fowls were released and given plenty
of food and water The horse and cart
were sent to a stable.
| The turkeys are worth probably S2o,
and the horse, harness and cart about
S3.21. Thanksgiving will soon be here,
and twenty-five good fat turkeys are
not to be sneezed at.
! Payne will go out to Hangtown
Crossing to-day and try and learn from
what direction the turkey man came.
It may turn out that the fowls were
stolen

Fair Oaks Relief Corps Entertain
the Soldiers.

The ladies of Fair Oaks Relief Corps,
No. 13, gave a reception to the soldiers
from Manila at Foresters' Hall last
night. There was large and enthusl-

Judge Anderson made a brief pu1
eloquent address of welcome, in Whlcn
he classed the American volunteer as
the grandest of all soldiers, because
he fights for the noblest flag tnat

He said the wealth of all the mill
ionaires in the world could not pay the
soldiers for the risks they took lie
spoke of Sherman, Grant, Sheridan ano
other compatriots as types of the true
American soldier, but held that women
back up and give courage to armies.

THE IDOL OF THE TURF.
The Most Popular Jockey in America and
England Recommends Stuart's Dys-
pepsiA Tablets.


No. jockey has ever appealed so
strongly to public favor as Tod Sloan.
He has achieved more than his most
noted predecessors ever attempted and
stands in a class by himself.
Not satisfied with his successes in
his native country, he went TO Eng
land and now his fame as a successful
horseman is on the tip of every tongue
not only in this country and England
but in every section of the globe where
racing has found favor.
When Tod first went TO England his
temerity was openly laughed at, buk
the little American played skittles with
his English rivals and his victories
made all England gasp.
Having the stamp of royal approval,
society both at home and abroad
slionize" him and he is feted and petted
to an extent that would turn an ordi-
nary mortaTs head.
The great jockey was in such demand
socially and dined and wined to such
an extent that it was feared his health
would give way. Too much society
and the nervous strain of racing told
on him.
A two weeks trip to America made
MN acquainted WIN stuart DSSQep-
sia Tablets and their remarkably re-
storative effects on a depleted digestive
apparatus and he recommended them in
unstinted terms to a friend, saying,
'Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the
best thing I know Of for keeping the
stomach in condition and appetite in
good repair"
Thousands of former dyspeptics can
vouch for the truth of Tod Sloan's
words, as "Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
have become a household word in
America, and few families are without
them One or two taken after meals
keep the stomach sweet by causing
prompt and healthy digestion of the
food
Perfectly healthy people use them
after heavy dinners to keep their good
health and to make sure that no Ill
effects will follow an unusually hearty
meal.
Your druggist will tell you or your
doctor either that Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets are composed only of digestive
ferments, Asceptic Pepsin, Hydrastis
fruit acids, etc, and for the strong
stomach as well as the most delicate
constitute a safeguard against indiges-
tion and stomach troubles.

SENSATIONAL RUNAWAY.
Fortunately It Did Not Result in
Anyone Being Injured.

Captain w. H. Bradley, the hack-
man, had a wild and perilous ride
down K street about half-past lo
o'clock last night, and the people on
the sidewalk who saw the horses rum
ming away with the hack on which he
was seated expected to see him at any
moment dashed to the pavement and
killed.
1t seems that at about Eighth and X
streets one Of the front wheels of the
hack came off, letting the axletree to
the ground. This frightened the horses
and they started on mad run down
the street. Captain Bradley managed
to keep his seat, and though he could
do little toward checking the speed OF
the horses he succeeded in steering
them clear of street cars and other
vehicles.
A number of hackmen and bicyclists
took up the trail of the runaways and
followed them to the end of their run
at Second and K streets. There the
end of the axletree that had been
humping along the pavement caught
in the curve of the car tracks, and
crash went the whole outfit.
The hack was thrown over on its
side and the horses also, breaking the
stout pole in the center. Captain Brad
ley landed hard on the bitumen pave
ment, but fortunately fell clear of the
hack, and though somewhat bruised
his injuries were slight. In an instant
dozens of men were on the spot, bu1
the horses were caught by Captain
Bradley himself before they had time
to rise and make matters worse.
All in all, it was a most fortunate
termination of what might have beer
a very serious affair. If a street cal
had been rounding the turn at Second
and K streets when the runaway team
reached that point a collision coule
not have been averted and the conse
quences would have been serious.
Everybody who witnessed the run
away declared that Captain Bradley
displayed remarkable nerve, GOODNESS
and good judgment.

BEST FISHING RODS.

Ii has long been felt that some def
mite data should be laid down as to the
points constituting a good fly rod. and
as first step the necessity arises for
determining the nature of combination
of materials best fitted for rod making.
Some manufacturers have had recourse
20 the advice Of engineers. and have
presumably laid down the lines on
which the experiments should be made.
In some instances the relative strength
and weight of the materials have been
deemed the sif-importaut factors. In
America many types OF tubular steel
rods have been made. but these have
not SO far found favor with anglers,
either on this or the other side OF the
Atlantic.
In 1889 a well-known firm had a rdbort
made by an eminent engineer on speci-
men lengths of rods of different con-
struction and materials. The specimens
We're uniformly "A inches in length and
032 inch in diameter. for the round rods
in the case of the glued-up hexigonal
rods. the length of each side of the tri-
angular sections being 016 inch. Resili-

without steel centre. Then followed. with
much lower figures OF merit. greenheart

heart and lancewood. Hollow steer waa
condemned as giving too much spring
back and continuing the vibr alton toe
long.
IT is doubtful, looking at the figures
whether the presence Of the steel centre
in glued cane rods was OF any great ad'
vantage beyond raising the breaking
weight. 1t may, however be taken ae
tariaI known, and that there is a con-
siderable difference of opinion as TO tn.
