FIGHT.-A fight, the outcome of the
election Tuesday night by Council,
took place On Cameron street this
morning between defeated candidate
for minor position and member of
the Common Council. The former &C.
cosl ed the latter and charged him with
duplicity, claiming he promised to vote
for him and afterwards cast his ballot
for his opponent. The gentleman
whose public services had been declined
became much incensed as the colloquy
between him and the Councilman pro-
ceeded, and he finally used expletivas
toward the city father which could
not be tolerated, at the same time strik-
ing at the Councilman. The latter,
being much the younger, used both OF
uature's weapons to the best advantage,
but friends interposing bought the mill
to an end before either mad been much
hurt.

BOTH FINED Some excitement wss
caused on King street this morning by
Officer Atkinson, who was barehe9ded,
chasing small colored boy. During
the trial in the Mayors court OF three
other colored boys for jumping on rail-

son, who was wanted for the same OF
Tense, was seen in the court room by
Officer Atkinson. The officer, who
was behind the railing, endeavored to
get between the boy and the steps lead
ing down from the court room, unno-
ticed, but the boy OWNED his purpose
and made break for the stairs, which
he cleared with leap. while Oficer
Atkinson, who is quite an athlete,
cleared the railing with neat spring
and started in pursuit. In the meantime
the boy had made the dust fly" and
had gotten as far as King and Pitt
streets where Councilman Desmond
performed his first official duty by in
iercepting the fugitive and handing
him over to the officer. On the way
&c the station house companion OF the
boy, named VIM. Williams, thought
the officer had no right to arrest Jack
son and so expressed himself, where
upon he was placed under arrest for in

case by 6ning Jackson $3.50 and VIII.

A NARROW EscAPE.-Some excite
ment was occasioned in the neighbor-
hood of Windmill Hill yesterday even
Jog when q carriage contaiuiog an
eighteen-months old infant plunged
down the end of the embankment fac
ing the river. The baby had been placed
in the carriage and entrusted to a
brother about pine years old, but q
game of baseball in the bottom enlisted
more of his attention than his charge,
and ty some unexplained means the
carriage was precipitated down the
bank which is almost perpendicular on
the eastern end. The youngster re-
manned in it's seat until it nearly reach
ed the bottom, when the carriage over
turned and threw its occupant out
People on the hill we're Mortified upon
witnessing the accident, aud several
ran to the bottom of the hill to pick up
the child, expecting to find it either
dead or fatally injured, but, miraculous
as it may seem, it had not received q
scratch, and after short cry over its
scare was soon in its normal condition.
The carriage wheels were smashed in
its descent. Truly, angels must often
watch over innocent prattlers when
left in charge of thoughtless children
and careless nurses.

A CLOSE CALL.
Wire Cable Falls on Two Men Rid
ing In a Cart.

William Irvine, the Second-street
stableman, and his friend, Ike
Coolidge, had a close call yesterday.
They were riding in an open cart
drawn by Irvine's fast .trotter, "Our
Jack" and were just crossing K street
at Ninth, when heavy wire cable
which was being strung along K street,
fell upon them
The cable struck Irvines wrists,
which are good and strong, and as the
horse was going at a walk, the occu-
pants of the cart had just time to
throw up their hands and raise the
cable over their heads. Had they been
travelling faster than walk they
could not have done this.
Mr.. Irvine says that had the cable
fallen upon the back of the high
spirited horse Our Jack" would have
given bound forward, and he and his
companion would have been swept
backward out of the cart, possibly
killed. and a valuable horse ruined by
running away.
The cause of the accident was not
learned, but it is supposed the rope
used in stretching the cable broke.
However, too much care cannot be
used in such work along crowded
streets

These bees are twice as large as those of

as much honey. They have extra long
tongues, and can reach the nectar in
many flowers that our own variety can
not. While this move will be of material
benefit, it will not be any more SO than

reaches and cures many ailments that

sTELzNER AND sILvERTHoRN
Their Glove Fight on Next Monday
Evening.


Sporting men are manifesting consid-
cradle interest in the Stelzner- Silver
thorn fight that is to come OF next
Monday night, under the management
of the Sacramento Athletic Club, in the
latter's big exhibition hall in the Old
Pavilion
Stelzner has fought two or three bat
ties in this city, and has the confidence
of those who take an interest in ring
contests. He is not only an honest
fighter, but a clever and game one-a
man of the Choynsh type, who is all
ways ready to tackle almost any one.
and never puts up a weak fight. He
trained and boxed with Bob Fitzsim-
mons when the latter was preparing
for the Corbett fight, and Fitz has
often said that Jack was one of the
best sparring partners he ever had.
OF Silverthorn nothing is known here
outside of his work in training, though
his record includes a six-round draw
with Kid Mccoy nearly three years ago,
and victories over several good men.
Those who have seen Silverthorn at his
work in the Athletic Clubs gymna-
SUM have a very good opinion of him.
and said to be- terrific hitter and fast
on his feet His friends regard him as
Stelzner's equal, and look for a very
even and hard contested battle.
Stelzner is training at East Park
where those who care to do so can see
him at his work any afternoon at 3
O'Clock In the forenoon he takes q
run to Brighton and back.
Silverthorn can be seen at the clubs
gymnasium any day. Both men are
apparently in the best of condition
They are to weigh not to exceed 165
pounds at o'clock on the afternoon
of the fight.
No match that takes place under the
management of the Athletic Club must
have any faint of crookedness, for
when the Board of Governors has rea-
son to think the men had not done
their best, or that either INDUCED in
taking, the money is withheld. Hence
those who go to see a contest managed
by the club generally 'get run for
their money"
