STOLEN WHEEL RECOVERED.
detective Norton Receivers DR..
Pearce's New Bicycle.

Dr. j. j. Pearce was very happy last
night because of the recovery of his
brand new Eclipse bicycle, the loss of
which was fully chronicled in the Rec
ord-Union" the day after it was stolen.
which was April 9TH.
Detective Lou Norton of the State po-
lice force (under the Secretary of State)
soon afterward discovered that some
one had left Eclipse wheel No. 52, ,506 at
the Capitol. Consulting the Record
Union account of the theft, after he
became satisfied that the owner would
not call for the wheel, Colonel Norton
discovered that DR.. Pearce was its
owner, so he returned it last night
My theory is that the thief left DIR.
Pearces s wheel when he stole Lou Strain
ings new Cleveland" said Norton last
night, land had he been caught trying
to steal Straining's wheel he would
have said, oh, l took it by mistaken
and would have returned for Br.
Pearce's Eclipse"
No trace has been found of the other
four wheels that were stolen on the
same day that DR.. Pearce lost his, and
the police believe the other wheels We're
taken away.

STRAIT IS JAILED.
Argued With a Negro, Drew a
Crowd, Insulted an Officer.

John j. Strait was arrested last night
for disturbing the peace of Officers
Bagley and Douglass of the police force
The arrest was made in front of the
Mission on K street, between Third and
Fourth. Speaking of the circumstances
that led to the arrest, Officer Bagley
said to a Record Union" reporter:
Strait objected when Officer Doug
lass asked him to cease obstructing the
sidewalk, and called Douglass a
"chump.' A negro and Strait were in
a hot argument, which drew a crowd
and would soon have resulted in fight
between the disputants.
Instead of needing Officer Douglass,
Strait denounced and damned him. We
did not arrest him then, but when ne
followed US a hundred feet and renewed
the attack we arrested him and charged
him with disturbing the peace. He
then cried and apologized, but it was
too late. I do not think he had been
drinking, but he certainly acted in a
vicious manner

MANSIONS LECTURE TONIGHT.
A Deeply Interesting Discourse by
REQUEST of the Mayor.

AT the lecture-rOom of the Art Gallery
at 8 this evening Marsden Manson,
c. E., LII D., will lecture by request
of Mayor Land on one of the most in
teresting of subjects, and one of espe-
cial interest to Sacramentans.
Mayor Land two weeks ago invited
DIR. Manson to lecture on water and
climatology, knowing the high value of
the data gathered for years by the
scientist, and the deep interest with
which he invests any subject he hand
les. DR.. Manson accepted and the
Mayor prepared tickets free, to the
full seating capacity of the hall, 30o.
He has some of these tickets still lett,
and they can be had on application at
his office to-day by those who sincerely
desire to attend and viii agree to do SO.
The Mayor wishes those to benefit by
the lecture whose interest is quick upon
the subject of conservation of water
| and its meaning for California, and
especially for Sacramento.
| The value of Dr. Manson's researches
on the subject may be understood bet
ter by a. statement in the Popular
Science Monthly for April, which gives
sketch of a lecture by DIR. Manson
last summer on Climatic Evolution.
He was sent for all the way from Lon
don to come there and deliver the
lecture before the Royal Geographical
! Society, which he did.
The data he has gathered is the re-
suit of a quarter of century of re-
search on this coast. His subject to-
night will be Necessities of Rainfall
and Water Supply Investigations in
California The lecture will be illus
trated by stereopticon views, and will
treat of these subjects: The cause of our
wet and dry seasons; variations in our
winter rainfall; shifting of the belts of
annual rainfall; features of rainfall dis
| tribution on the Pacific Coast of North
America; effect of rainfall upon barren
and upon forest areas; denudatlon OF
mountain slopes; scope of the necessary
| studies in relation to water supply;
possibilities of seasonal predictions
why tprnadoes never can visit the Pa
cific Coast, nor the east side of any
jocean; why the rainfall in California is
accompanied by southerly winds, when
in fact the storm center moves from
northerly directions.
It is safe to say that those present
tonight will get more valuable infor-
nation concerning our climate, rainfall
winds, effect of forest destruction, ETC..
| in an hour and half than in any other
way possible
