ON HIS MUSCLE. A Davisville Justice Who Wouldn't Stand Any Foolishness. Ho Catches a Napa llorse-Thicf, and Then "Licks" the Owner of tho Recovered Property. Referring to the recent theft of a horse and cart at Napa from a Valiejo man, named A. K. Brown, the Woodland Democrat of yesterday tells the following .story : "A few days ago A. K. Brown, proprie tor of tho Central Stables ut Valiejo, drove over to Napa, using a horse and cart. He hired a boy to help about the stables, and just before starting for hoin< they drove up to the court-house, tied tl. horse and Ilrown went inside. A mo ment later a man came and untied tin horae, and getting into tho cart drove away. "A description of tho rig was sont all over the State. Mr. Brown was hero yesterday looking for his property. In j the aiternoon he went to the telephone | office, and whilo sending a message heard some one on the wire ask another operator Lf ho knew anything of a man by the name of Brown from Valiejo. Tlie other operator did not know, but Brown did, and he was not long in letting the man know it. He proved to be a Justice at Davisville, and informed Mr. Brown that he had his horse and cart. The latter immediately went to Davisville and identified the property. "The thief came into Davisville Sunday night and wanted to know if he could go to Sacramento. The Justice recognized •len cut. as it was of very peculiar make, and after a few questions took charge of the man. The latter did not senn to be greatly disturbed about the matter, but expressed the wish that he would not get more than three years for the larceny. HE WAMTBD His MONEY. "Judge Wise was the man who mado the arrest. One Constable was sick and the other was out of town, and the Judge acted as arresting officer, which he had a perfect right to do. There were some ex penses connected with the affair, how ever, and the officer who was sent up for the prisoner had a talk with Mr. Browu, the man whose horso was stolen, and said to Wise that Brown would pay him I for his trouble. This morning Brown j went down to get his horse without say- i ing anything about pay. Wise followed J him over ;<> the stable and, according to I his story, Brown refused to pay anything i - ible lill. "Wise rushed over to the depot to catch j his prisoner and hold him for the costs, I was half a minute too late. The j train was just pulling out. lie then went j back to the stable, where he found Brown with the horse hitched ap and ready to j leave. Wise took the horse by the head and told Brown to jungle or put that borse back. 1 Brown refused to do I either, and a war of words followed. Brown threatened with his whip, V\ [se held on to the horses head and threat ene 1 wilh his tongue. "Finally Brown got out. still talking in "a manner quite emphatic.' Then Wise let go of the horse, and Brown —well, Brown was not in i;. Wise got in a couple from the shoulder, and the tight was his, and s<> w as the borse. "ilrown came to Woodland on the noon train, with the round intention of having tho Judge arrested." THE THIEF DISPOSED OK. a telegram from Nana to the Record -I'ni<>.\ last night stated that John Mar tin, who stole the horse and cart in the open Btreet there last Friday night, and who waa caught at Davisville, was ar raigned and pleaded guilty, asking that sentence be given at once. .Judge Ham sent him to San Quen tin for nine years. Martin .says he was drunk when ho took the horse, and did not know what he was doing, but did not ask any leni ency. FRUIT SHIPPING. The Several Fruit Houses Here Pre paring i'or Bnatmaa. Mr. L. W.

IlieKok, 4 0 acres; W. T. Barnett, 20 acres: N. T. Greathead, 20 acres; Mrs. L. Greathead, :J0 acres; W. McKay, 30 acres; N. D. Barker, 20 acres; R. A. Barker, 20 acres; J. P. Brownleo, :_>o acres; E. 11. ____. lett, lOacres; Joseph Barker, 10 acres; a. w. Kelly, 10 acres, and Frederick Kelly, 10 acres. So far this had been merely a private ven ture of the gentlemen above named, but in talking up the question of dividing the land already purchased, it was found that so nuiny in.>re Mould like to join it than thearea of the purchase would admit of, that it waa Sug gested on all hands, "Why not _ct some more land and divide it up in the same way?" Then followed the Idea oi a stock company to take hold of a larger trad and arrange for the cultivation ol" the whoieoi it, after subdividing it according to the requirements of the sub scribers. A provisional board Mas formed, a prospectus Issued,and finally,on the oth ot June, IS9O, the Western Co-operative Col onization und Improvement Company was duly registered and proceeded to business, with the following officers: Fresideut. Will iam McKay; Viec-Presldent, M. P. Hrown; Directors—H. C. Ellis, Charles Brooke and R.A. Barker; Secretary and General _launge Neal D. Barker; Solicitor, C. E. Snook; Treas urer. First National Bank of Oakland. The balance of the tract, 37 3 acres, was pur chased. A contract was entered into for the purchase of a large number of truit trees, vines, etc. This early purchase of trees waa the means Of saving between 83,000 and 54,000 to the company, the plica, in some Cases having more than doubled since then. The ideas which the pr. spcetus set forth have been but slightly modified and the progress of the company has been uninter rupted. Those who went into it dbttbtinlyg have become enthusiastic, and almost all the members arranged to let out all their lands In fTult trees.etc-the tirst year. Consequently inthis, the tirst season, sonic -iO.UOO tree. and between 2o,oooand 30,000 vines will be planted. The satisfactory working of this scheme has had the effect of attracting considerable at tention to the work Of the Colony Company, and a number of people are now desirous of joining in with them. An additional 200 a.res bave been added to the sixty acres originally purchased. For the company Is predict ed a very bright future, as well as for the beautiful valley in which their operation! aro conducted. How this marvelous little garden has come to be so long neglected ls a puzzle to every one Mho has visited It, but one thing is very sure, and that is that this neglect will never again be 1< It In the valley. The fruits set out are mostly ofthe standard varieties--peaches, apricots, Bartlett pears, prunes, ligs, raisin grapes, etc., while ulor.g both sides of the avenues, throughout the tract, walntttS will throw their grateful shade. A considerable number of citrus trees aro also being set out; quite a sufficient numtx r to demonstrate that these fruits can be success fully grown in the valley, about which the colonists appear to have no doubt, provided j proper care is given to the young trees. Neal D. Barker, General Manager of the company, resides on the tract, and to his care is to be ascribed much of the success of the Venture. Mention should be made of the town-site, about Which there is a pleasant innovation Which might with profit be followed by more ambitious places. A small park of some three acres has been laid out right in the center of the town. This park it is proposed to beautify by planting in it from time to time as many ofthe beauties and curiosities of tree aud shrub life as may be obtained by diligent search and a wiso expenditure of money. It ls not expected that TancrcU will ever bo a large and busy city, but it ts thought that it can be made a very pleasant littlo place lo dM-el! in. A petition has been circulated recently and very largely signed, asking the ccunty to ac cept Island avenue, on the colony tract, as a county road, and to build a bridge across Cache Creek at this point, in order to give the settlers on the cast side of the creek access to Tancred Station. The Tancred colonists are | quite willing to give the necessary right of May, and are very desirous of having a bridge there, as the colony lands extend along both sides of the stream. It is thought that it would be a very wise expenditure of public money to grant them this very necessary im provement, us the operations of such com panies arc of widespread benefit to the whole county and Stat". The attractions and com forts of the cities are well known, but to those v,ho are Milling to settleon the land and Bhow that the country also affords attractions and comforts, and ways of making money pleasantly, every inducement should be held forth. The following is a list of the principal mem bers ofthe Tancred Colony, with the number of acres owned by each, and a fact worthy of mention is that in each contract or deed Is sued by the Colony Company there is a pro vision that no intoxicating liquor shall ever be manufactured or sold on the land. The ap parent success of the enterprise shows that the ideas and plans of the colony, as set forth in the prospectus some time ago, are not Im practicable: C. T. Hull, Berkeley, 5 acres; W. P. Hammond, Oakland, 14 acres; c. S. Kas son, San Francisco, 11 acres; Jos. Barker, 10 acres; A. W. Kelly, Kincardine, Ont., 5 acres; N. T. Greathead, 5 acres; lt. G. Greathead, Oakland, 10 acres; R. A.
