Music by masters of the art, under the
leadership of Signor Gennaro known as
the eccentric" followed. The band is
one of the largest attractions ever i'm
ported by the Orpheum company for its
theaters on the coast, and its reception
in Oakland yesterday indicated the ap-
preciation of the companys enterprise
in bringing such an attraction here.

the woman's cleverness and the patience
that has gone to the training of these
animals.

band" Black art -of an unusual kind
was exhibited by the Jupiter brothers,
who call themselves The Cowboy IlIu-

crowds. The Cadets de Gaseogne sang
in delightful fashion a number of new

OAKLAND. Oct 25.-After being
beaten into insensibility by two high
waymen armed with blackjacks on the
east side of Filbert street near Thir-
tieth Saturday night. w. S. Smith, a
butcher living at 1s4S Filbert street
lay on the sidewalk in an unconscious
condition for nearly an hour, while the
thugs made good their escape with his
purse, containing s43.70, and several
packages of provisions which he was
carrying home to his family
Smith started home from his shop at
the corner of Linden street and San
Pablo avenue on a bicycle. A few
blocks from home he found the street
in rough condition and decided to
dismount and walk the rest of the dis
tance. In Linden street near Thirtieth
he noticed that two rough looking men
were following him and his suspicious
were aroused, but he did not become
alarmed until the pair ran up behind
him and ordered him to stop
Smith responded by dropping his
bundles and knocking one Of the men
down with his fist. As he did so the
other thug struck him a stunning blow
over the head with a blackjack and fol-
lowed it UP with another, that left him
unconscious. When he recovered his
pockets were turned inside out and his
bundles were gone

ANOTHER HORSE
|. KILLED BY POISONER
Animal Valued at $1,000 Found
Dying in Stable by San
Rafael Contractor
Strychnine Scattered Over Hay
in Manger by Unidentified
Person During Night

SAN RAFAEL Oct. 25.-Another
victim was added to the long list of
horses and dogs killed by the poisoner
who has been scattering strychnine
from Corte MADEIRA to Petaluma- The
unidentified miscreant succeeded in
killing a $1,000 horse belonging to
Martin & Miller, contractors. at San
Rafael this morning.
The animal was in violent convul-
sions when discovered grOaning in it's
stall by Herbert Miller, senior member
of the firm. A veterinary surgeon was
called. but before he arrived the ami
NAL had died.
AS in other cases. strychnine was
found scattered over the hay in the
manger, a portion of which the animal
had eaten
Among the animals poisoned recently
were Sweepstake, a $2,500 stallion, be-
longing to Hicks e SLAM of San An
selmo; five horses at Larkspur. the
property of the Doherty lumber cem-
pany; one belonging TO James l. Taylor
of San Anselmo, and more than 100
dogs in the different portions Of Marin
county.
A veritable reign of terror has been
created by the poisoner. and dog fan
ciers and owners of valuable horses
are taking extra precautions to pro-
tect their animals.
A reward of 500 has been offered
by the dog owners at Larkspur for the
apprehension of the poisoner. and now
that he has enlarged his operations by
killing valuable horses. it is probable
that a larger sum will be subscribed
to secure the conviction of the villain.
