BREAKS
SCHOOL WINDOWS

Twice during the past few days
some maliciously disposed person has
thrown stone through windows of
the school house, smashing the
panes When the first window was
broken, it was thought that the dam
age might have been done uninten-
Cionally by little boys tossing stones
in a frolic, but when Miss Minnie
Mau, acting principal, went to the
school house yesterday morning and
found another window broken, and a
large stone lying upon the floor ef
the assembly room, the matter took
4 different appearance.
An effort is being made TO learn
The identity of the window breakers.

SPORTING SEASON OPENS.

Racing and base bail are now in
tull swing. and other ont-of-doors
SPORTS are fairly under way We are
furnished by the Associated Press by
wire with the following review OF
the sporting outlook:
The English turf will again see
Richard Cookers stable on the ia
nous tracks this season. Croker has
sent a string of horses across the
channel, with Orby, a grandson of
Flying Fox, who won the derby in
1899, at its head. With this horse
Mr.. Croker hopes to land the much
coveted Derby this year
Universal regret is expressed on
the continent that William X Nam
derbilts star performer, Maintenon,
has gone wrong and been relegated
to the stud. Much Of the $246,000
won by the Vanderbilt stable last
year was brought home by this horse.
William Duke, the Vanderbilt train
er, was training Maintenon for the
Ascot gold cup in which Mr.. Wander
bilt had hoped to reverse the defeat
Of Maintenon by Spear Mint in the
Grand PriX in Paris last year Both
horses were entered for the gold cup.
Much interest has been aroused in
pugilism since the arrival al San
Francisco OF William Squires, who
comes with the biggest reputation rs
a boxer of class Americans have
not forgotten the other great fighters
who came from the Antipodes and
are inclined TO take Squires as the
only man in sight capable OF giving
battle Of Champion Jeffries. Squires
must first show his worth, however,
and as an earnest desire on his part
to do SO he has posted large for
felt at Los Angeles to meet the win
ler of the Jack Brien-Tommy
Burns fight scheduled to take place
Nay 9Th. Should he defeat the win
ner of that match the Australian
will ask Jeffries to give him battle
and thus will occur real interna-
tional ring contest.
The next big stake of the horse
racing season will be the Metropoli-
ian handicap May 9th at Belmont
Park. Twenty-seven horses, a ma
Jonty of them good performers, are
entered. Accountant is best though

 Chihuahua Enterprise: While ex- cavating for the foundations of the new barracks on the Eastern out skirts of Monterey several soldiers found the skeleton of man who had been buried very long time and it is supposed to have been one of General Taylor's soldiers in the attack of the American forces on Monterey in 1846.
