REDDING, May 8.—Antone Jaegel, a saloonman and large property owner ot 7 | this city, lay in bed at an early hour this | morning and watched a burglar coolly |ransack drawers and gather up jewelrs and money belonging to himself, his wife and his young daughter, ed led and was dropping to sleep again when a fresh sound roused him and he opengd his eyes. By the faint light in the room he saw a tall burglar at work at the bureau. Jaegel watched him pocket his wife’s pin money, cut open a satchel con- taining his daughter’s coin, pocket a pair of opera glasses and then reach for Jaegel's $30 gold watch. { The man in bed was unarmed and re- | frained from making a sound for fear the burglar would discover the $500 dia- mond ring upon his finger and murder him for it. He could not, however, see the watch go without a protest, and he coughed. The burglar took instant alarm, dropped the watch, ran out into the hall of the upstairs flat, called his partner, who was on guard, and ran down the rear stairs. Jaegel ran down the front stair- way and summoned help, but the burg- lars escaped and have not been appre- hended. e Ny Trackmen to Get an Increase.

There m: be quite a contest at the Hanford encampment for the position of department commander. The posts of San Francisco, San Jose and Oakland are supporting Major W. G. Hawley of San Jose. Grand Army posts of Southern California probably will line up in favor of ex-Adjutant General Allen of Los An- | Major | The indications are that will capture the prize. Major Hawley was born in England June 16, 1846, but came to the United States with his parents in 1860. Respond- ing to President Lincoln’s call for troops he enlisted in Compan Twenty- eighth Wisconsin Infantry, and served with that regiment in the Mobile cam- paign, taking part in_the engagements of Fort Blakeley and Spanish Fort. Haw- ley was with the first troops to enter Mo- bile.

The platform continues: We declare that a fair and just recognition of the services of the Federal soldiers and sail ors of the late Civil War and those of the re cent war with § provision be made by vensions for the disabled | survivors and for the widows and orphans of those who fell for the flag, We commend the brilliant and patMotic ser- vices of our army and navy in maintaining the diznity and honor of our flag on the seas and in our foreign posscssions and condemn national death of soldiers and sailors.

On March 19, when the Grafton was lving off the Chilean port some of the bluejackets who had shore leave got into a row ashore. The sailors were cor- nered by a growing throng of Chileans who were wildly excited, but the marines held them off until an armed force was hurried ashore from the vessel and the rioters routed.

The accident -occurred up country near Kasklo, from which place dispatches regarding the disaster were received this evening. ‘The slide occurred at 11 o'clock.

But there is also a very considerabls probability that Findlayson's life may end before May 12, the day set for the hearing. To-night he is reported to be sinking and fears are even entertained | that he may not live until to-morrow.
