Soulard, colored, was sen tenced to one year in San Quentin for an assault with a deadly weapon. As Sou lard's offense was not an aggravated one the court would have sent him to the County Jail but for the plea of the pris oner, who informed the court that he did not want to "serve time in a dirty, un kept hole."

CONTRACTS FOR SHOEING FIRE HORSES AWARDED The Fire Commissioners met yesterday afternoon and referred a petition from the Eureka Valley Improvement Club asking for a fire engine and apparatus to the Board of Public Works and a peti tion from the Nuevo Potrero Improve ment Club asking that Rhode Island and De Haro streets be repaved so that fire engines might get into the district was also referred to the board. The contracts for horseshoeing In ac cordance with the resolution passed at a special meeting last Wednesday dividing the city into districts were awarded as follows: District No. 1, T. J. Crowley 11 Merchant street; district Xo. 2, T. F. Mc- Gee. 300 Gough street; district No. 3, P. Friedhofer, Third and Silver streets; dis trict No. 4, James Mooney, 321 Sixth street, and district No. 5, N. Morrissey, 332 Ninth street. By innuendo Frank Frisbee, a local blacksmith., has charged the Board of Fire Commissioners with favoritism to ward others of his craft and has filed suit against the board to restrain it from enforcing the provisions of a resolution heretofore adopted, in which It was de creed that those in authority in the va rious districts should decide as to whom should be granted the contract for shoe ing the department horses. In his peti tion Frisbee alleges that the object of the resolution In question is to give into the hands of political friends of the mem bers of the board all of the work of the kind mentioned. He says that such ac tion is illegal, and that competitive bids should be solicited. Shot in the Shoulder.

WORK OF SAVING FLOOD HERS IS FAIRLY STARTED Preliminary Surveys Are About to Be Made at a Cost of $12,500. Government, Water Association and State Universities Are Backing the Big Jndertaking With Money and Men. The first substantial steps toward pre serving the flood waters of the State were taken yesterday. At a conference of the interested Institutions held at the University Club the expenditure of $12,500 was authorized to secure data as to the cost and feasibilty of the contemplated undertaking. The conference was attended by Presi dent 'William Thomas, Secretary T. C. Friedlander, F. W. Dohrmann and Mars den Manson of the California Water and Forest Association; Professor Soule, Uni versity of California; Professor Marx, Stanford University; J. B. Lipplncott, United States* Geological Survey. An agreement was entered into by which the Government and the water association will supply the funds and the universities contribute the services of several of their professors, including Professors Soule and Marx. The money to be expended in the Imme diate preliminary work was apportioned as follows: For the investigation jointly by the irrigation expert of the Department of Agriculture and the two universities of the sources of supply, rights, etc., of the watersheds of Lassen County, Yuba, Kings, -tealinas and San Joaquin rivers, $5000, the Government to put up half of the money and the association the other half. For investigating reservoir sites and kindred matters. $5000. contributed as follows: Kings River Canal Company, $1500; United States Geological Survey, $2500; "Water and Forest Association, $1000. The reconnoissance of the Salinas River will cost $1000, to ba shared equally by the Geological Survey and the associa tion. If the reconnoissance develops that the Salinas watershed has good reservoir sites the association will expend $1000 for its survey. ' The reconnoissance of either Stony Creek, Cache Creek, Putah Creek or Cottonwood Creek will also 6e made at a cost of $500. All this work will be per formed .before next fall. The conference will be continued this afternoon. has no complaints to make about lack of condition, but simply says that he was unused to the style 'of fighting in vogue in this country. A return match between the men is being advocated by local sports. The gross receipts of the fight were JoT.'K. Of this sum Neill received $2764 40 and Murphy $1113 85. According to their agreement with the National Club the men were entitled to 72 per cent of the gross receipts. This was turned over to them and was divided, the winner taking 70 per cent and the loser 30 per cent. THREE CONVICTS GIVEN TERMS IN SAN QUENTIN A. Swindler, a Gun-Fighter and a Burglar Must Pay th.c Penalty for Their Crimes. 7 P. J. "Wynn, -who on February 26, ISS9. Bold a "Btufled" saloon at 634 Mission •treat to John Kins, and who was subse quently convicted on a charge of obtain ing money under false pretenses, was NEILL NOW READY TO MEET "TOMMY" RYAN "Tim" Murphy Anxious for Another Meeting With the Pacific Coast Champion. Al Xeill's stock as a boxer has risen 100 per cent In the estimation of the ring goers of this city. The clever manner in which he lowered the colors of Tim Mur phy, the hard-hitting Australian, leads the followers of the fistic game to believe that the young Californian is lit to cope with the best men in his class now before the public. Many are of the opinion that Neill would give Tommy Ryan a hot ar gument, and the young Californian is of that opinion himself, lie dots not fear a meeting with Ryan; he invites one. Murphy only asks that he be given an other chance at his victorious rival. He feels certain that the experience he gained In his eleven rounds of lighting with Nelll would stand him in good stead in a second meeting, and he confidently thinks that he can defeat the local middle-weight.
