Edward Johnson and John Black, who burglarized a jewelry store in British Columbia and stole $5000 worth of dia- monds, appeared in Judge Carroll Cook’s | court yesterday morning on & writ of | habeas corpus. The point was made on their behalf | that they could not legally be held under | the provisions of the extradition treaty unless the warrant for their arrest was sworn out in a United States court orina State court of record. An inspection of the papers showed that the warrant 1or the arrest of the prisoners was issued out of the Police Court of this | City, which is not a court of record. Judge Cook held that the point was ! well taken and ordered the discharge of | tue prisoners. Thiy were at once re- arrested, however, on a warrant granted uider the seal of the Superior Court. Judge Cook announced that he would | grant the defendants an examination to- morrow to determine the question as to whetber they had committed an exira- o | ditable offense.

The Exciting Boatrace Between Fathers P. C. Yorke and J. McDonald. How Father Caraher Threw the Stone. The Two Charlevs’ Dancing Feats—0'Neil’s Sword. “Three cheers for Father Caraher and the parishioners of St. Francis.” It was just as a vast crowd was jostling and elbowing one another to board the train at Schuetzen Park for this City that the foregoing words were shoutea by some response that greeted them was deafening. It was & great picnic and reunion; there can be no gainsaying that, for the old- timers vouch for it. There were fully 3000 people tbere, all good-natured and out for a good time, and they had it. By the time the second trainload arrived everything was in full swing, and the games began. It was laugh, laugh, laugn, from their inception to the end. John Lahey of track 2, San Francisco Fire Depariment, led off in the list of winners by taking the prize in the fat men’s race. Lahey wasa foxy runner, even if fat, and fairly rolled over the tape as foremost man by the great margin of six inches. Special Officer Charles Deuser carried off the married men'’s race, though the slow- est of the bunch. His success was due to the fact that he was the only man out of seven that_didn’t fall two or three times. George Kendall, the milkman, threw the heuvy stone the farthest and took the prize. Father Caraber picked it up, but as it was so much lighter than the one with which he triumphed last year he dropped 1t again with the good-humored comment that he could not afford to sac- rifice his reputation by engaging in chil- dren’s sports. The young men’s race was won by Frank Ring; the hop, step and jump by Frank Lynch; the three-lezged race by Herman Hoyer and Wiiliam Schieber; the race for boys under 10 by Paul Mc- Sweeney, and for boys under 14 by John Kelly. Police Officer Lloyd’s wife simol. rivaled danced mic energy of which her muscles were yet capable. The young ladies’ race was well earned by Miss Mamie Long, and to Miss Annie McDonald—T. Burns acting as judse— went the prize for the most beautiful young lady. Burns’ competency todecide in this respect has never been questioned. The trophy for the best jig and reel dancers was taken by Michael O'Brien and Mrs. Sheehan. But the greatest crowd Blood, aged 75 years, took the floor with a young fellow and fairly *‘hoed itdown” till the fiddler cried quits. A spirited contest took place as to whom should be awarded the handsome sword donated by Captain P. Connors. Compe- tition was limited to Company M, L. C. C. Lieutenant E. O’'Neil was the lucky youth, with 364 votes, and Private Hunt second, with 204 ballots. Many were scattering. Games of all kincs were indulged in by the young folks all day. Father Giles took them under his wing, and himself swing. Dancing was keot up durlng all the afternoon and until the last train was ready for departure. Young Charles Gor- man of Company M distinguished him- self by dancing with the tallest young lady on the grounds. She was over 6 feet tali, and little Charley scarcely 5. Every- body stopped dancing to witness the fun, when his partner entered 1nto the spirit of the thing and walized round the room holding him at arm’s length off the floor. Charley McCarthy, the American ship- per, and’ his friend, William McCarthy, neither of whom knew one step from the other, were persuaded to get on the floor together, and the effort was so exhaust- ing that both refused to sing their famous duet, “Wait for the Wagon,” for which mittee. Late in the afternoon James Kitterman and wife gave a banquet to the clergy in one of the ivy-wreathed arbors. Many others also partook of their hospitality. Taken all in ail it was a most satisfac- tory reunion of the parishioners, and | much praise is due the priests of the pai- ish and the various committees for their unrelaxing efforts to make it so. The | committees in charge were as follow: General Picnic Committee—P. A. Buckley (chairman), John J. Duddy (secretary). P. A. | Connors, J. Gorman, T. B. Hulard, T.

Milreck, Mr. Hé The parishioners of St. Peter's enjoyed an outing and picnic at El Campo yester- day. ~About 1500 people were present, and the day was enjoyably spent in games of various kinde, contests of strength aud skill and dancing. Everything pnssed off pleasantly and there were no incidents of any kind to mar the day's pleasure. The nearest thing to one, however, was in order when Fathers P. C, Yorkeand James McDonald engaged in a boat race. That is, they rowed into each other at right angles across the bows of each other’s | voat, wi h one oar fanning half the time, | and for dear life all the time. At theclose, the boats wers tangled up, and no decision was given. But the coast record was within thirty minutes of being lowered just the same. The race for altar boys was won by John Gilioy. Arthur Swan carried off second prize. M. Barrett won the fat man’s race, be- chuse the course was L0o narrow to allow anybody to pass him. T. E. Wadswortn cume in second, holding on o Barrett's suspenders with a death-grip. Mrs. D. E.

A Relative Told Her That Her Husband Had a Wile in Chicago. Thornton Denied the Accusation and Was So Excited That He F:!1 Into a Hypnotic Trance. Jeanette Daisy Thornton, the bride of a day, attempted to commit suicide last evening by swallowing a dose of chloro- form. H. N. Thornton, who says he is a doctor of science, was married Friday night to Jeanette Daisy Powell, of 956 Folsom street. Thornton is about 28 years of age, and his bride 22 They are both spiritualists, and the ceremony was performed by F. P. Evans, the regularly ordained representative of the spiritualists. Tue newly-married couple went to live at the Manchester House, 44 Sixth street, and everything gave promise of a bright future for the hapoy bride. Yesterday afternoon she called at her former home, 956 Folsom street, and her brotber-in-iaw was present. In the course of conversation her brother-in-law ex- pressed bis sorrow for her, and, on being pressed for an explanation, he told her that ber husband wasa bigamist, a8 he had a wife living in Chicago. The shock was a terrible one to the young wile, and after she recovered she hurried to the Manchester House. Her husband and a friend, P. A. Baker, were chatting as she entered. She immedi- ately charged Thornton with blighting ber life. He was amazed and wanted to know what she meant. She told him to go to his wife in Chi- cago, and stepping to the bureau uncorked a small bottle of chloreform and swallowed the contents before either Thornton or Baker divined her intentions. Thornton rushed out of the house for a physician, who was soon on the scene, and lby applying the usual remedies save ife. As soon as his wife was pronounced out of danger Thornton went to 956 Folsom street to demand an explanation from his wife's brother-in-law. He was 1n such an excited state that he fell into a hypnotic trance, and in alarm his mother-in-law notified the police and Thornton was driven to the Receiving Hospital in the patrol-wagon. Dr. Fitzgibbon did all he could for him and put him to bed. He soon recovered conciousness and was allowed to go home. He gave an emphatic denial to the statement that he has a wife in Chicago and could not understand why his wife’s brother-in-law should circulate such a re- port. FOR THE BURNS MONUMENT. Everything Points to the Success of the Caledonia Club Gamer The games committee of theé Caledonia Club met last night to make further ar- rangements for the coming gathering and games at Shell Mound Park, Saturday, May 29.

William Brugge, convicted of manslaughter for killing Louis Gosch on the 7th of last March, has been sentenced by Judge Dunne to serve seven years in the Stale prison at San Quentin. er DEEP LI GOLD INTH OLD GWIN Rich Strike at Great Depth in This Famous Mine. WAS ABANDONED FOR A GENERATION. California Eoterprise Pumped It Out, Dug Down and Found Weaith. LARGEST BOLY OF PAY ORE IN THE STATE. This Strike at Fifteen Hundred Feet M:ans a Good D:al to the Mother Lode. They have struck it rich in the old Gwin mine of Calaveras County, four and a half miles southwest of Mokelumne Hill, by going deep into the bowels of the mother lode. Now Senator Voorheis of Sutter Creek, Assemblyman Thomas Bel- shaw, F. F. Thomas and Stewart McClure of Oakland will be richer than they ever expected to be. This strike1s a new and significant evi- dence that wealth lies deeper in the mother lode than has been believed. Advices from Senator Voorheis testify that the find is “rich.” It lies in the big- gest known ore body, or pay chute, yet found in California. The story of the Gwin mine is the story of the Champion, Providence and other great moiher-lode minesof the present, in that it was worked extensively a generaticn ago and then abandoned as unprofitable until men with money and confidence came along, dug deeper and found wealth. Many years ago it was owned principally by the late Sen- ator Gwin of Broderick duel fame, and while he operated it it yielded a fortune. In those days mining machinery was not so efficient as now, methods were less perfect and the cost ol operations was greater in all directions. The water was an expensive impediment, and when at the lowest level reached the value of the ore was consumed by the cost of getting out the gold opera- tions were suspended. It joined the great group of silent, worked-out mines that have dotted the mother lode so long to be recently reopened. Its idleness lasted sixteen years, though its owners held to it for its known value as a property that might be profitably de- veloped. Two years or so ago F. F. Thomas, a capable mining man, Senator E. C. Voorheis, Thomas Belshaw and Stewart McClure, son of Dr. McClure of Oakland, bonded the mine for ,000 and proceeded to developit. In doing so they spent money. A Tiew shaft was sunk to a depth of 1500 feet at a cost of $100,000, and a 40-stamp mill was erected, the total investment being about $150,000. Driits were run and it was early discovered that below the old workings the great ore body increased its length to 1300 feet, being there 200 feet longer than it had before been found to be, Milling operations were got farly going late last fall and since then work has been vigorously prosecuted. Work has re- cently been pushed mainly in the 1300 and 1400 levels and stoping and upraising have been going on in ail directions. A few aays ago a dividend of $6000, the first in a great many years, was paid, and now comes the discovery that the mine is richer than ever. The Gwin mine is another evidence of the new contidence of California mining men in deep mining. It is gratifying, too, to know that this luck has come to Cali- fornja men as a reward of Californiaen- i terprise. NEW TO-DAY. o S e R S TR R ALL SILK LINED DRESSES!
