One of the Australian natives jumped the | | fence of his paddock and successfully eluded the attempts of two mounted policemen to capture him. At a late hour this morning he was still jump- | ing. A pedestrian on McAllister street, near Stanyan, about 9 o'clock last night, was startled by an odd-looking | | form sitting serenely on the park wall | |at that point, calmly taking in the surrounding landscape. The glistening eyes of the quadru- ped filled him with fear and he left | | a trail of dust as he sped for the Park Police Station. Mounted Policemen Pidgeon and Budd started after the escaped curio. They found him still reclining on his haunches at the northwest corner of the park. Carefully they drove their horses mnear the animal. Pidgeon poised his lariat for a moment and then threw it. The rope sailed square for Mr. Kangaroo's head, but the wily Australian, with a great leap, deftly jumped through the loop. With huge bounds he started westward, the po- licemen after him. Like Mark Twain's coyote, the curio did not seem to over- exert himself, but, after the fashion of the desert scavenger, easily kept just out of reach of his pursuers. The hunt lasted for two hours; the kangaroo leading the mounted men a ,merry chase up and down hill, around trees and down embankments. Several times Pidgeon and Budd attempted to ensnare the beast, but always he elud- ;ed the lariat. ) After a long chase the animal seemed to tire of being pursued and with a few bounds left his would-be captors alone in the trees of the park. Up to a late hour no trace of the kangaroo could be found. To Address the Navy League. An address on the subject, “Navy Expenditure as Insurance Premium,” will be given by Dr. J.

GOVERNOR WILL NOT BE RUSHED Pressure for Appointments of the Judges for Newly Created Courts of Appeal FIELD OF ASPIRANTS Legislature Must Provide Means for Payment of Rent and Salaries of Attaches CHRISTMAS GIFT LECTION AND The pressure for the immediate ap- pointment of nine Judges for the new Appellate Courts is very strong, but there is gossip to the effect that the Governor refuses to be rushed. The fact is taken into consideration that the Legislature must provide means for the payment of court expenses for the last half of the present fiscal year, and for the succeeding two years. Apart from the salaries of Judges, money | must be allowed for rent of court-| THE STORE WILL BE SHREVE & COMPANY POST AND MARKET STS. —_———————————————————— BEAUTIFUL AND MODERATE-PRICED 8.

According to the constitutional amendment recently adopted the Gov- ernor must appoint one of the Judges in each of the three districts as the presiding Judge. It is gossip in court circles that Judge Henry A. Melvin of Alameda and Judge Edward Sweeney of Shasta are so highly commended that they will be appointed. It is sald also that the Governor desires to recognize the pres- ent Court Commissioners and view: with favor the indorsements in behalf of Colonel N. P. Chipman. The forthcoming message to the Leg- islature is now demanding the atten- tion of the Governor, and he may deem it advisable to defer the appointmenuts of Judges until means have been pro- vided for thé maintenance of the new courts.
