GARDNER CONVICTED.
His Third Trial for Criminal Assault
Results Disastrously.
The Jury Took Hut One Ballot, and
That was Unanimous—Close of
the Evidence.
Daniel Gardner, the :»ged wood and
coal dealer, was found guilty by a jury in
Superior Judge Van Fleet's court yester
day afternoon of having criminally as
saulted little Lizzie Cox nearly a year
ago.
The jury was in deliberation only a
few minutes, and took but one ballot—
and that was unanimous for "guilty as
charged."
This was Gardner's third trial. On two
former occasions, after lengthy trials and
brilliant arguments, the jurors failed to
agree. It was the genr-rul belief that,
should the jury disagree in the third trial,
Gardner would be discharged from cus
tody.
GARDNER'S CRIME.
The story of Gardner's atrocious crime.
stripped of its disgusting and filthy de
tiils. was published in the Recobd-
Vnion at the time of its commission. He
inveigled the little 11-year-old girl into
en outhouse near his woodyard and as
saulted her. The testimony was of such
a nature That at all three of the trials the
case was heard behind closed doors.
Gardner was quite confident of an ac
auittal this time—defended as he was by
Grove 1;. Johnson and ox-Judge S.Solon
15 oil, two of the ablest attorneys in the
State—and conducted himself in quite an
indifferent and careless manner while
he was testifying himself and while others
v ere testifying.
ri.osK OF THE TRIAL.
Tho last of the testimony was taken
emrly in the forenoon yesterday, and then
the arguments commenced, consuming
the remainder of the day.
District Attorney Ryan mado the open
rig argument for the prosecution, going
over the details of the case and demand
ing that a verdict of guilty be rendered.
He alluded to the fact that the girl's life
aud reputation had been blasted, and that
vhen *he grew op she would be pointed
at with the finger of scorn. An outraged
community, he declared, demanded that
justice be done.
ELOQUENT APPKAI.S.
Attorneys Johnson and 1101 l followed
v.-ith the arguments for the defense, and
taoy, tot), asked that justice be done their
<lient. He had been made the victim of
evil-minded persons, had been dealt un
justly with by the newspapers, and was
i mocent of the crime he was charged
i.ith. They alluded pathetically to liis
tld age, white locks and many misfor
tanea, and exhorted the jury not to be
carried away by public sentiment.
Upon the conclusion of the arguments
for the defense .Mr. Ryan closed for the
I oopio. He devoted his remarks prin
cipally to denying the statements made
I y the other attorneys. During his ar
t Gardner, whom Mr. Ryan had
I iim referring to In forcible language,
interrupted the speaker, but was quieted
by the court.
The jury retired at 4:30 o'clock, took
one ballot and returned to the courtroom
i i about twenty minutes. This quick
i greement was the cause of much sur
] rise to all who were interested in the
< ase.

AMUSEMENTS.
A good audience witnessed the produc
tion of Hoyt'a "A Midnight Bell" at the
Metropolitan Theater la^: night. The
pieco has not been changed in any par
tieular since It was played hero a year
Hgo. Home new faces bave been intr<>
-1 howexer, those of the Bchool
iiiistie-s. the clergyman's sister and the
bank tell«r. It <<Mnnot bo said that they
SACBAMEJiTO PATTY KECOKP-THSi IOK, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1891.—SIX PAGES.
are changes for the better. The original
ca"»t in this respect was much stronger.
But the chief characters remain in the
same hands, the deacon, the mischievous
youth, the cashier, the bank president,
the cleryman, the old maid, the widow's
daughter and the country soprano. The
play is light, homely, with not much
boisterous humor, but a deal of the quiet,
droll and characteristic wit that could be
found in tbo social mingling in an old
!::!•.'■ New England village. "A Mid-
Hell" is on the middle ground
lie •seen foroe "and comedy, but it
closes like v melodrama. The plot
is simple, probable, and the characters
depicted are not extravagantly drawn.
For the most part they are true to life.
The play amuses without resort to un
real effects. It is clean, and if not teach
ing any especially great lessons, is whole
some in the impression it leaves, for
there is a good deal of manliness and
nobility of character in it, a very pretty
and natural wooing, and is a story of
wrong righted and innocence vindicated.
The piece will be repeated this evening,
and beacon Tidd and Martin Tripp will
make their last appearance here, for Mr.
Richards and Mr. Canfield when they
come this way again will be seen in
some other characters, but in none, we
apprehend, that they can play better.
In "A Midnight Bell" they are inimita
ble, and make the play well worthy a
visit to the theater.
This afternoon and evening will be the
last day and evening of the fine perform
ances of the Lcons at the swimming
baths, but one. Their mid-air horizontal
bar and trapeze work, and their daring
feats in L'Eschell are very attractive and
ought to bo seen by all who admire grace
ful athletics. To-morrow afternoon school
children will be admitted to the matinee
performance for a dime each.
There will be a social dance this ovon
ing at Liberty Gardens, Highland Park.
PASSENGER TRAINS.
Prospective Changes in The Over-
land Time-Tables.
If Made They "Will All Bo Advan
tageous to the Traveling Pub-
Hc-Those Talked Of.
The railroad company is again figuring
on making some very important changes
in the passenger time-table. As yet the
matter is in an unsettled state. However,
changes are to be made, and those now
contemplated are as follows:
The east-bound overland train, which
now arrives at Sacramento from San
Francisco at 10:40 p. m., wili reach this
city one hour earlier. In order to do this
the train must leave San Francisco at t>
o'clock in the evening. This change will
be gladly accepted by people who desire
to return to Sacramento from the Bay in
the evening at a seasonable hour.
Then the time of the north-bound Oregon
express will be so changed that the train
will arrive here at 10:oU p. m.. two hours
earlier than it does at present. It will
proceed northward from the city at 10:50
P. M.
The west-bound fast mail train, Xo. 4,
is on the programme to arrive at 7:40 a.
m. and to proceed to San Francisco at 8 a.
m., reaching the latter place at 11:45 a. m.
This will be a great convenience toper
son- who prefer the later morning train
to the Bay.
Probably the most important change
contemplated, and one which will greatly
please all Sacramentans who have occa
sion to go to San Francisco frequently,
will affect the west-bound overland train
which carries second-class through cars.
At present this train climbs and descends
the Surras in the night and reaches this
city at the early hour of ii:2s o'clock in
the; morning. The railroad people are
figuring to have tins train arrive at Sac
ramento at 5:45 o'clock in the evening,
and depart for San Francisco at (! p.m.,
reaching the metropolis at J»:40 r. >r. This
will enable business men here to complete
their day's labors and make a Hying trip
to San Francisco.
This change is one that has been de
sired for a long time.
Incidental to these changes there may
be some slight changes in the local train
schedule.

New Style Locomotives.
It is expected that the two new tea
j wheel combination locomotives recently
reoeivt d by the Southern Pacific from the
Sehenei tady \\ 01 ks, New York, will bo
ready for their trial trips to-day. Sfeeae
aotiveeare provided with high and

gn at saving of (del.
Not many of these locomotires are in
OSe in this country, but they are very
: popular in England. The two here will
probably bo put on the San Francisco
i route.
Narrow Escape.
There came near boiug a conilagration
'at Fourth and J streets last evening. A
; man, w ho is said to be an employe in the
building where the- Farmers' and Me
. ehanics' Hank is located, took a lighted
lamp into the basement, and whilo there
the lamp was either dropped or exploded.
At any rate the place -was ablaze In ■ flgw
• seconds, and the flame* shot up through
the entrance. Fortunately, however, the
lire was smothered before it gained any
i headway.
NATURAL GAS.
An Effort Wiil be Made to Resume
Boring for It.
The Stockholders Discuss the Situa
tion—A Xew "Well May be
Started Soon.
A meeting of the stockholders of the
Citizens' Natural Gas Company was an
nounced to take place at the Courthouse
last evening. A quorum of them did not
put in an appearance, ; however, so the
meeting devolved into an informal af
fair.
Dr. S. S. Southworth, the President,
was in the chair, and in calling the stock
holders to order addressed them regard
ing the work that had been done at the
well at Fifth and R streets. The well is
now \>2o feet deep, and no more work was
being done. A hard stratum of rock had
been encountered, and, in trying to force
the pipe through it by fifty tons of hy
draulic pressure, the pipe had been
broken oil' within live feet of the surface.
This, and the fact that the company's
funds were depleted, caused the stoppage
in the work. Since then, however, he
and several other directors had been ex
perimenting with the gas now flow
ing from the well, aud the experi
ments had been quite successful. The
company's mission had been fulfilled in
part—it "having been demonstrated that
both natural gas and artesian water were
plentiful beneath Sacramento. Since its
organization the company had collected
and expended £8,630. Some difficulty
had been experienced with subscribers
who failed to pay up. Something over
81,000 were due from delinquents, and a
number, rather than pay, had relin
quished their stock. In conclusion, the
President said ihe only matter to be de
termined upon now was whether or not
they should proceed with the work. He
said he had recently been to Stockton and
had examined closelj" the wells there.
He was satisfied from what he had seen
that Sacramento possessed as good, if not
better, advantages for procuring natural
j;as than Stockton.
A general discussion was entered into
by those present.
A letter was read from Otto Grunsky,
Secretary of the Northern Gas Well at
Stockton (the smallest one there) in
which he gave a full description of the
well, its cost, and how it was paying.
This well is 1,640 feet deep, and has a flow
of '.M.ooo feet of gas doily. It cost 914,000,
and each stockholder paid in $283 per
share. Very little of the stock, he says
can be bought now, and that which could
be bought would command at least $320
per share. It was supplying thirty-seven
families with gas, and was paying an
average of §2 50 per share per month the
year round.
P. K. Dray wanted to know what
amount of gas was now coming from the
local well.
President Southworth said that 1,000
feet were escaping from it daily.
The President, upon being asked, paid
ho thought that the work should be re
sumed —either by continuing the present
well or starting a new one. He thought
thatefiorts should be made immediately
for raisins the necessary funds. Practi
cal well-borers had told him that the
present pipe could bo repaired and sunk
further down.
E. J. Croly said he had had experience
as an oil-well borer, and was satisfied
that it would cost more to sink the pres
ent well «*'O feet farther down than it
would to bore a new well. Ho would
sooner put $100 into a new well than £5
into the <..iii one.
Mr. Dray said he would be satisfied If the
company could demonstrate to the people
that there was plenty of gas here. He
<liil not care to make any money out of
the enterprise. He thought that the work
should be resumed, and moved that the
Secretary be instructed to visit all of the
stockholders and request them to take
more stock ; if they declined, to request
them to relinquish th.ir stock.
Dr. G. L. Simmons believed that in
two years there would be a dozen natural
gas wells in Sacramento, and it would be
all owing to the efforts of this company.
lie did not favor Mr. Dray's motion,
however, because he thought a committee
of the directors could go among the
stockholders and influence them better
than the Secretary could. He otfered an
amendment to that effect.
There was considerable discussion on
this point, but the amendment finally
prevailed. Then nobody wanted to serve
on the committee, and the amendment
was rescinded and Mr. Dray's original
motion prevailed.

DOMESTIC DEPARTMENT.
STYLE TTcToTHING.
Style is the finishing idea in Clothing. The qual
ity of the cloth may be perfection, the sewing and
fixings of trimmings may be the finest, but, style
lacking, the Clothing might look almost as beggarly
as a rag-bag garment
Styles are as various as the tastes the people have
in Clothing. To begin with Boys' Garments, whoever
remembers the styles of Boys' Clothing some years
back recalls the baggy, uncomely appearance of them.
Fit, shaping wasn't looked for. Maybe two to five
kinds or qualities exhausted all there was to look at
Now, with countless styles in our stock, you will come
across Plaited Suits, Double-breasted Blouse Suits,
Norfolk Suits, Coats or Jackets cut in roundabout
shape, in many a shape that words would miss stating
clearly.
In Young Men's and Men's the same diversity.
One fancies a Frock Coat; the Priuce Albert another;
the Cutaway Shape, in one to four buttons; then last,
the great army of Sack Coats. No more the plain,
old-fashioned sack, with its corners at any angle that
the cutter fancied, but lines of beauty in it. It isn't
necessary any longer to accept either ill-fitting or un
fashionable clothing if your dollars are few.
The sweep of Ready-made Clothing, as we know
it, takes in every man's taste, in style as much as in
the quality of the goods. He can have a Dress Suit
that fits him perfectly in the time it takes him to try
it on; he can have a Working Suit as fashionable as
he wants it. and see hundreds of qualities and dozens
of styles, and can buy one that goes to his shape as
certainly as if made for him.
Style in Ready-made Clothing is no longer any
thing but a matter of choice which style the buyer
likes. The style and fit are ready in our stock.

DOCTOR WILLIAMS DISPENBABY is do-
Ing exactly the same Him-;. The wonderful
earea they have effected in cases that have
been abandoned by other physicians have
caused the big world to stop and think. Names
and addresses of people cured have been fur
nished,and the general public say: "As they
have cored these people they can < >un- us."
The general public is right It our staff of
physicians and surgeons cannot curejouno
power on earth can.
Mr. W.S. KAIL. S£4 X street, makes the
following statement:
This Is to certify that I have been ailing for
three years with catarrh and ne-voastrou. .
1 visited several physicians, who gave me but
temporary relief, and one said I wmi incur
able. in Jane I went to Dr. Williams'Dis
pi osary and took treatment, mid can now as
sert that I nm completely and permanently
cured. Signed. \V. S. KAIL.
