THE SA NEWS OF THE COAST, The Peculiar Experience of a Stockton Footpad. STABBED BY A RANCHER. His Proposed Victim Proves Too Wary and Too Courageous. BUDD'S CONDITION NO BETTER. He WIIl Probably Be Confined for Several Weeks—Suffers In- tense Pain. STOCKTON, CaL., Aug. 8.—John Heard- ing, a rancher who has lived near Crocker station since 1854, and who is known to nearly everybody who has ever taken a trip to the Yosemite Valley since the time of his settlement on the road thither, had an experience in this city with a highway- man last night which he will not very soon forget, or it may be more corsect to say the highwayman had an experience with him which he will not be likely soon to forget. Yesterday afternoon Hearding arrived in this city by train from Oakdale, to which place he had ridden horseback from his farm. Last evening he bethounght himself of going to a hoteland asked aa individual whom he had met on a street corner if he could direct him to the Uhited States Hotel. The person approachedl was one of the “‘crooked” gang, with whica the town is filled just at present, and, thinking he had met a sucker, he proceeded to lead the | gentleman from Crocker’s station through dark streets into a thinly populated sec- tion of the town, pretending to be taking him to the hostelry he was seeking. Hearding is a little old man, but he has a heart like a lion, and fear > him isan unknown thing. He soon szw what was up, but, saying nothing, he ‘-llowed the man who had undertaken to riow him to the hotel. Soon the visitor found him:+1f in one of the lumber-yards with hisunk§own guide. The latter tried to induce hirf to enter a ramshackle house, which he %£:id was the hotel. His purpose evidently was to get him in there ana then rob him3 Hearding surmised the sinister motive, *nd quietly opening a large blade of his pcket-knife, 80 as to be ready for an attack, e declined to enter the house. At that the footpad jumpei on him, thinking to knock him down. '{e soon re- leased his hold, however, and: staggered for Hearding had plungeXt his knife into him. The fellow lost no tire in mak- ing his escape and was soon Jost in the darkness. Hearding does not know into what part of the man’s body he plunged the blade, nor how serious the stabis. The blade of the knife was about three and a half inches Jong; capable of making a dangerous wound. Hearding found his way to the hotel and returned to his ranch to-day. T0 REMODEL THE ASYLUM. It Is Deemed Advisable to Have the Work Begin at Once. STOCKTON, Cavn., Aug. 8.—The board of directors of the State asylum at their meeting to-morrow will probably take up the question of commencing at once the work of remodeling the old asylum. The fund of $15,000 appropriated for this purpose is not available until next year; but the directors recently had a conference with Governor Budd, who brought the matter before the State Board of Examin- ers, and it was decided that the work might go on at once. The bills for repairs and alterations to the old asylum building will be audited every month by the Board of Examiners, but will not be paid until after the Ist of January. The idea of the directors in not delaying the work further is to take advantage of present prites for building materials of all classes. These are now advancing, accord- ing to President Southworth, and for this reason it is thought advisable to call for bids and start the repairs before they go any higher. Then, again, the directors want to have the bulk of the work done before the rainy season sets in. This will give considerable work to Steckton people at a time when it is needed. The matter will probably be settled to-morrow. INDUSTRIOUS BURGLARS. They Have Been Raiding the Fashiona- ble Part of Stockton. STOCKTON, CAL., Aug. 8.—Housebreak- ers have been very busy here for the past few nights and a number of houses in the most fashionable part of the city have been entered. The cracksmen seem to bave (sélected the residence district for their operations. Tuesday night the residence of Dr. Cross in the northwestern part of the city was ransacked from top to bottom by expert manipulators of the jimmy and nothing was known of the fact until the following morning. Last night two burglaries were com- mitted in the Nob Hill portion of the city. The residence of C. J. Vance was entered and everything was turned upside down without the owner awakening. Right across the street the home of Dr. Stock- well was burglarized, but little was taken. The silver plate was taken out and in- spected, but the thieves were evidently Jooking for money only and took nothing el Near by is the residence of District Attorney Nutter, but the thieves failed to get anything here, being frightened before they had fairly effected an entrance. The police are aroused over the work of the cracksmen, who are experts in their line, and will leave no stone unturned to secure thém. | ZIQUOR I N AROUSED, at Is Proposed to Issue No Licenses to New Saloons. STOCKTON, CaL., Aug. 8.—The Board of Police and Fire Commissioners of this city, who pass upon all saloon licenses, have about decided that there are enough places in Stockton where liguor is sold and that they will grant no more licenses. If this action is tmken it will cause a storm to be raised here,-as with the in- crease of population, which must event- nally follow the advent of the roads to Stockton, men will desire- to open new saloons. The city charter provides that the com- mission shall pass on the licenses before they come before the City Council, but also provides that licenses shall be granted when certain conditions have been com- plied with. The saloon men will bold that they are entitled to licenses when they have com- plied with these provisions of the city charter and that the Police Commission and City Council have no right to with- hold them. It is thought that an effort will also be made to put & stop 1o bars being main- tained in connection with grocery-stores. All this is along the lines of reform promised by the A. P. A. organization dur- ing the recent municipal campaign. If an attempt is made to carry out these ideas there will be a merry war in Stockton and the matter will be carried into the courts. BUDPD NO BETTER. He Still Suffers Intense Pain—May Be Confined for Weeks. STOCKTON, Carn., Aug. 8. — Governor Budd’s condition to-day is much the same as it was yesterday. Dr. Sargent says that he is still a very sick man, and will proba- bly not be able to leave his mother’s home, where he now is, for several weeks. The trip to Klamath Hot Springs has been abandoned on the advice of his physician, who positively forbade such a journey in the present condition of the patient. No very alarming symptoms have developed since yesterfinr{ and the Gover- nor himself is very con dent that he will not be confined as long as his physician predicts, He still suffers intense pain at the base of the brain, his face is congested and his eyes bloodshot, indicating the nature of the disease from which he is now pros- trated. The pain is not so great, perhaps, as it was Tuesday and yesterday, or when at Merced where ice had to be applied to the sick man's head constantly. The mother and wife of the sick man are con- stantly bv his bedside. FROM STOCKTON TO LODL Work Being Pushed With AUl Possible Rapidity. STOCKTON, CavL., Aug. 8.—Work on the Stockton and Lodi Terminal Railroad is progressing rapidly from the company’s water front to the Eight-mile House. The graders’ camp was moved from Mrs. Moore’s ranch to the Eight-mile House to- day. The company has leased Mr. Robin- son’s biacksmith-shop at that point so that | it can do its own blacksmith work, the dis- tance being too great from Stockton. The grading will be pushed both ways from that point until the entire grade is com- pleted from Stockton to Lodi. DUWN AT CAMIP ROACHE Systems of the Different Na- tions Explained by Charles H. Shinn. Ross Speaks of the Tariff asaSource of Revenue and as a Means of Protection. WRIGHTS, Car.,, Aug. 8 — At this morning’s session at Camp Roache, Charles H. Shinn, inspector of the university ex- periment stations, delivered an address upon the experiment station system as developed in Europe and America, with practical reference to the moreand hitherto unpublished details of the work in Cali- fornia. He began by explaining the methods and some of the results of Sir John Lawes’ famous Rothamstead experiments with' crops and fertilizers. He next described the development of Government station work in Germany, France and Russia, and then took up the American stations more in detail, showing how they were sup- ported and conducted ; some in connection with colleges and universities, some as separate institutions. In this connection be alluded to the excellent character of the work done by such men as Professor Bailey, Professor Atwater, Professor Budd and others and described some of the spe- cial experiments carried on at the Con- necticut, Massachusetts, ' Cornell, Rhode Island, Michigan and Towa stations. The iaspector then turned his attention to California. He described each station in detail and gave the method of organiza- tion adopted to secure efficiency. He nar- rated very minutely the progress of a typi- cal experiment at each separate station, and gave a humorous and picturesque ac- count of some of the experiences of sta- tion workers and station staff. He closed with & hearty invitation to all present to visit the central station at Berke- ley and various outlying stations. The lecture gave a very clear, honest and in- teresting birdseye view of the invaluable experiment station system of California. The afternoon lecture by Professor Ross on the tariff question was concise and in- teresting. He regarded the tariff asa tax for the support of the Government and as a scheme of protection. As a tax the in- crease of price to the consumer goes to support the Government, as protection the enhancement goes into the pockets of the protected producers, he claimed. He thought the tariff at present unjust, because necassaries are taxed more in pro- portion thar luxuries, and the tariff pro- tection he considered unjust because its benefits go to the manufacturing class and not to other producers. He said the manufacturer enjoys almost the entire home market for manufactures, but at a higher price than rules in the foreign markets. The farmer possesses almost the entire home market for agri- cunltural staples, but at a price no higher than the prices in the world’s markets. Therefore. the manufacturer sells in a protected market and the farmer in an unprotected market, while both buy in a protected market. The farmer, therefore, isat a disadvantage, and can sustain the present system only so long as he en- joys a monopoly of improved farm ma- chinery, This advantage he is losing, and there- fore he must, if protection continues, be compensated by an expor: bounty. The educational committee of the State grange in charge of the matter have found 1t necessary to change the place of the closing three days’ meeting from Santa Cruz to San Jose, although all other ar- rangements will be as heretofore pub- lished.

RED MEN IN PROCESSION, The Paraders in Line Extended a Distance of Three-Quar- ters of a Mile. PLEASURES OF THE EVENING. Numerous and Varled Enough to Appeal to the Tastes of All Vislitors. REDWOOD CITY, OCaAn, Aug. 8-— Last night the Great Council of Red Men began a session which lasted until 20’clock this morning. The night was devoted to a competitive rendition of the adoption ritual, four picked teams competing for the prizes set aside by the Great Council for the best rendition of the work. The teams were so closely matched that it was almost impossible to make a choice, 8o that instead of allowing $60 to the first and $40 to the second best, as arranged at yesterday afternoon’s session, the prizes were divided among the four teams as follows, there being absolutely no choice for first place: Montezuma 77, $30; Sotoyome 12, $30; Modoc 57, $20; Arapahoe 76, $20. This morning the weather was charm- ing, without being too warm, and was in every way favorable to the carrying out of the day’s programme, which was entirely devoted to festivities, in which the whole county participated. The grand parade started promptly at 10:30, and was noticeable for its bright- ness and rich coloring. It was an ideal ensemble, rich in uniforms, decorations, floats, conveyances and trappings. The town was filled with people who came in private conveyances and on the early trains, and the universal verdict was that Redwood City was right in line with a celebration that compared most favorably with the recent pageants that have taken place in various parts of the State. The procession while in marching order extended from the Southern Pacific devot along Arguello street, the entire length of A and Bridge streets, along Main and well into Stambaugh street, a distance of about three-quarters of a mile. The principal features of the parade were as follows: First division—Grand marshal, W. P. McEvoy; Joseph J. Bullock, L. Gluschio and J. W. Wilson, aids; Elite Band; Gen- eral George S. Evans Post of [Redwood City and visiting members ot the Grand Army of the Republic; Redwood City, Menlo Park and San Mateo parlors of Na- tive Sons, each member carrying a fancy Japanese umbrella. Second division—Floral phaeton, deco- rated with sunflowers and old gold trim- mings on Nile green background, little Miss Olive Joyce driving, attended by Eileen Curran and Aimee Jacobus, a col- ored groom leading the richly caparisoned blooded roan; Independent Order of Odd Fellows, 109 members; Ancient Order Foresters, fifty members; Redwood City Fire Department, eighty-five members, in full uniform, with the Exempt Firemen’s engine, hook and ladaer truck and three hosecarts, all elegantly decorated by skilled professionals. Third division—Two beautiful children, Gertrude Beeger and Ino Gedge, dressed in typical Indian costume and carrying toma- hawk, bow and arrows, mounted on Mexi- can burro; float, representing Pocahontas (Miss Mamie Winne) saving the life of Captain John Smith (Henry F. Butts); San Francisco Turners’ Shuetzen drum corps. At this point came Metamora Tribe No. 24 of Redwood City, the banner lodge of the State, escorting Great Sachem O. F. Seavey and great chiefs of the Great Coun- cil of California, Improved Order of Red Men, who were in carriages; float repre- senting Penn’s treaty with the Indians; William Penn and his followers in histori- cal colonial garb, and the Indians imper- sonated by visiting teams of Red Men; the Great Council and great chiefs of Cali- fornia, 150 members, among them several gentlemen notable in the State’s history; float representing the Boston tea party—a full-rigged ship in possession of the early colonists disguised as Indians, throwing overboard the cargo of tea in Boston har- bor; Modoc Tribe No. 57 of San Francisco, with a mascot in the person of Porter Bliss, aged 5 years, carrying the Modoc banuer and dressed in the fanciful trappings of the noble red man, Then came invited guests and citizens in carriages, to round up the most successful procession ever held in San Mateo County. At the bicycle tournament held during the afternoon the county championship old medal, valued at $50, was won by ohn Ley in a hotly contested race. To-night there is excitement every- where—a reception and band concert at the Indian village, fireworks i front of the Courthouse, a grand ball divided up between two of our largest halls in order to accommodate the increased demand for invitations, all ending with a supper at Price’s Hotel. To-morrow the Great Council will try to close up its business, but they have been 80 hard pressed for time that a day extra may be required.

Creede, who will, with the consent of the parents, legally adopt her in a few days. Mr. Creede is one of the Los Angeles million- aires. A curious coincidence is that the mother of the child was also adopted by wealthy parents when very young. 10 WIN AT INGLESIDE, Some of the Purses to Be Given by the Pacific Coast Jockey Club.

MODEL IS HERSELF AGAIN. May Day Upset All the Good Things In the Last Race, Winning atl0to 1. The horses in the charge of Frank Tdylor will no longer race under the name of the Rico stable. A.G.Morris held a mortgage on four of the horses of the string, but this was released yesterday, and hereafter they will racein Mr. Taylor's name. The well-known horseman, L. A. Legg, who has been sojourning in the East for several weeks taking in the racingsituation, is back in California, and visited the track yesterday. Eest Mr. Legg purchased a couple of horses that will be seen later on. Ho states there will be an overflow of horsemen if all come who signified their intention of so doing. The well-knoewn turfman, Frank Phillips, is probably now on the way with his stable, in- cluding those good performers W.L. Munson and Flash. And Mr. Legg states that Galen Brown will shortly be on the road with a select lot including the crack Libertine. The horses of ‘‘Curly” 8hields, C. F. Sanders and Garnet Ferguson arrived st the track yes- terday morning, nine days en route from Lex- ington, Ky. All offthe horses arrived in fairly good shape, Merrett, of the ders string, was taken sick with pneumonia on the road and had to be left over at Council Bluffs. Mr. San- ders yesterday received a telegram from that place stating that the horse had died. He was & bay gelding 4 years old, by Spendthrift, dam Annie Morton, and was considered the best racehorse in the string. Out of twenty-four starts at New Orleans last winter he was inside of the money nineteen times, and all within four weeks’ raeing. Mr. Shields’ lot consists of & two-year-old purchased from Gene Leigh, and four yearlings. George W. Beardsley will train the youngsters belonging to Garnet Ferguson, the best of which are St. Lee and Orlon. If Nellie G is a “dope" flend she has fore- sworn the habit, for the talent followed her yesterday—over the hills to the poor- house—and she coquettishly threw them aown. In former races she has shown herself to be invincible over the hilly in- side course, but yesterday the coin that was played in on Miss Ruth seriously affected her nervons system and the gray mare seemed at a loss for speed. The bet- ting certainly looked as though 8ampson’s daughter had been superseded by younger blood, for Miss Ruth was backed down in the betting from 234 to1to 11 to 10. The handicappers tigured Nellie G the best at the distance, a seven-furlong run, and at gost time the generous bookies accommo- ated them with 314 to 1 n‘sainst their mnnag. Even the sulking Carmel held precedence over her in the betting, going to_the post a 11 to 5 second choice. ‘When the flag fell Nellie G chased Miss Ruth to the top of the stretch hill, where she died away, Carmel came on and took second place from Ledalia easily. The time, 1:33, has been beaten by Nellie G in a previous race. Three out of five favorites finished in front. The attendance was fair considering the large patronage the down- town poolrooms are receiving. Starter Ferguson has been in bad form of late and yesterday was no exception, the majority of the starts being of the *biffity-biff’’ sort, and in the last race Bellringer and Addie M were left standine at the post. Getting none the best of a scrambling start, Model, the 4 to 5 favorite for the opening event, a five-furlong run, waded through her field and won hands down from f)o Groat in 1:023{. Detective wasan ordinary third, Gondola was dished up as something rare in the second race, also a rive-furlong spin, but after getting away in front and leading until well into the stretch he died like a “‘yallerdog’ and Monarch, the sec- ond choice, won easily from Steadfast,who was backed down from 30 to 8 to 1. Starting a prohibitive 1 to 3 favorite, Nebuchadnezzer the Pawnbroker galloped partly around the circle in the next race, a six and a half furlong jaunt, winning as he liked from Ike L with Frondeur in third place. _Had the last race of the day beena three- eighths of a mile dash instead of a mile run, either Lady Jane or Ricardo would have been close up for the money. Asit was Lady Jane, who went to the posta 9 to 5 choice, and Ricardo, a 12 to 1 shot, lost the field the first part of the journey, but when straightened out in the stretch for home began to tire. Abi P came on and passed Lady Jane and looked a certain winner, when May Day, under Coady’s Eersuanve riding, challenged her the last undred yards and in a drive won by a neck in 1:423{. The favorite finished third. MULHOLLAXD. SUMMARY. 8AN FRANCISCO, Aug! 8, 1895. 1261 FIRST RACE—FIve furlongs; uellln%: othree-year-olds and upward; purse $250. Ind.
