The steamer General Frisbie had been chartered for the day and brought more than people from Benicla, Vallejo, , Port Costa, Crockett and V: lona. Three of McNeill's best tugs car- ried the excursionists from this city and three trips were required to transport some 200 people to the grounds. There were two bands in attendance— §t.

The | | meal was given him by a party of camp- ers, one of whom was F. Kenney, who says he was formerly a guard at Folsom | and knows Theron well. Kenney first telephoned to the author- | ities at Folsom, who referred the matter | to Sherifft Langford, at the same time vouching for the fact of Kenney's ac- quaintance with Theron and thelr belfef | in his relability in this matter, though | they sald that instead of being a guard he had been a prisoner there up to April | 7 last. Kenney's story was as follows: “We were eating breakfast In the edge of an orchard on Campbell avenue at 7:30 o'clock this morning when Theron | came up and asked for something to eat. | I recognized him Instantly, but he did not appear to see me. I did not want him | to and 1 stepped behind a tree. He sat| | down and ate his breakfast leisurely and when he was through asked where he| could get work. he men pointed to the | | surrounding orchards and told hiwm he could get work at any of them. “He then sauntered off down the ave-| nue in a southerly direction. I was con- | siderably excited and a little afrald and | I got on the next train and went to Los | Gatos. After thinking the matter over I concluded to telephone Warden Wilkin, son. “Theron wore a pretty decent-looking dark suit of clothes, a light colored soft- | crowned hat with a black band. He had | a short thick mustache and looked like | he had not had a shave for ten days.” Immediately upon the receipt of the news Sheriff Langford and three Deputy | Sheriffs started for Campbell to take the trail, but up to a late hour to-night no word has come from them.

P. ASSESSORS KEEP FQUALIZERS BUSY State Board Continues Its Session on the Holiday. Representatives of Lake and Nevada Counties Give Data. St — SACRAMENTO, Sept. T7.—Although this was a legal holiday, the State Board of Equalization held a session this afternoon for the accommodation of the Assessors and other officlals of outside counties. Lake County was represented by As- sessor C. M. Young. In 1902 the county's assessed valuation was $3,153,764 This | year's valuation was reported to be $3,- 253,282. There was a boom in Lake Coun- ty ten or twelve years ago, but in the last ten years there has been a falling off in the population of 1084 The crops tals year were short on account of the ab- sence of rain. About 100 flasks of quicksilver were pro- duced in the county during the year. The Bradford mine, which was sold for $100,000, closed down & few years ago. The | springs and the mines are what keep the county up. The hop raising industry | has been abandoned. The temperance people in the county had boycotted the business with the result that the industry fell down to a very low point. Nevada County was represented by As- sessor Henry E. Schroeder. The assess- ment of the county in 1902 was $5,453,015. This year 1t is 36,478,110 ten years was $1,350,000. On account of the suspension of hydraullc mining in 1881 the assessed valuation of the county was decreased $3,600,000. In 1880 the as sessment roll amounted to $9,064,000. 1889 1t fell to $5,473,000. At that time hydraulic mining was the principal mining industry. Since then the mining industry has worked gradual- ly from hydraulic to quartz mining. There are now six dividend paying mines in the county. There are only about twenty sections of timber land in the county at the present time. The best assessment on land outside of mineral land is $12 50 an acre. Lowest assessment on non-mineral land is about $5 an acre. @ iiiniiririniiniiviieieieieie @ O'Dowd, president of the Gaelic Athletic Association of San Francisco.
