Two Chinamen, who have assisted the police in raids on dens, were arrest by the Sher iff at the instigation of white hirelings of the highbinders, hut both can prove that they were not in the vicinity, and it is generally believed to be a conspiracy to let the mur derer escape and persecute innocent men.

WITH A BROKEN NECK. Conductor Uiimlui'i of Denison, Tex., Still In Good Health. J. T. Woodward, formerly a conductor on the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railroad, who had his neck broken in Texas on the llth of July, 1889, nrtived in the city on his way to St. Louis, says a Setlalia, Mo., special to the St Louis Globe-Democrat, fur which city he left at noon. He was bed fast six months after the accident, and never put foot on a train from the time : he was hurt until he started on his present trip. He wears a brace to keep hi. bend in posi tion, as without it bis head would fall I upon either his breast or shoulders. His general health Is good, but he . has retired perma nently from railroading, after having fol lowed it fnr thirty years. -_ On July llth of last year, while riding on : top of a freight train.

SAN FRANCISCO. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 4. 1690-EIGHT PAGES. TO SUCCEED MORROW. Republicans Casting About for a Candidate. It Is B'li.ved That Horses Davis Would Ac cept a Nomination— Campaign Prepa rations in Progress. . The Republicans are still discussing vari ous names in connection with the nomina tion foi Congress in the Fourth Congres sional District, but the matter is in as much doubt as ever. The drift of popular senti ment appears to be toward Horace Davis, and the belief is prevalent that if the nom ination was offered him he would accept. It is not probable, however, that he would be willing to make a fight for the nomination, and there is just where he may fail to get it. There is little doubt that he could have it for the asking, but there is no reason to sup pose that lie will mako the request On the contrary he is a man who is known to be averse to seeking publicity, but his strength before the people is of a positive nature. - Another name which has been brought forward in the last twenty-four hours is that of Thomas O'Brien, the present Tax Col lector, but there is no reason to believe that he would allow his name to be used. His popularity is undoubted, but he would prefer a rrncmination, and will probably secure it. The younger clement of the party are urg ing the nomination of A. Ruef, the young attorney, who is a Native Son and a hard lighter, but he merely smiles when the sub ject is broached, and says that his friends are merely attempting a little flattery. Ho says that he desires no political honors, but it is probable that he will be the Republican candidate for Stale Senator in the Twen tieth Senatorial District. E. B. Preston and Colonel M. n. Hecht are also spoken of in connection with the Congressional nomination, but it is not known whether either would accept RKCE-TIOK TO CANDIDATES. The State Democratic Clnb Holds a I.lttle Love Feast. The reception last night of the California State Democratic Club to the candidates on the Democratic State ticket may safely be said to have beer, a social success, for, while the speeches made contained nothing noteworthy either in style or substance, be ing all of the conventional " we are going to win because we're the salt of the earth, while the other fellows are very inferior" type, and, while they all had a sort of covert air of bracing each other up under a fore gone conclusion of defeat, yet, undeniably, the lunch that wis set in the back room was of the very best quality and made those present well satisfied with the whole affair. President Gittte called the meeting to or der and introduced Candidate Pond, who elaborated upon tho strength of the State ticket, but qualified his remarks with the statement that the Republicans were strongly organized and meant to win. Candidate Del Valle said that the Democ racy were united and in accord with their platform. He praised the wisdom of the San Jose Convention in renominating Hen dricks, Dunn and Spencer. Candidate Hendricks said he supposed the i_e<*tii.'g was for the pun of stiffen ing up the backbone of the candidates. He, for one, needed it. And then, seeing that he had committed a hull, rallied that it was a good Democratic year. He went on to say that, present company excepted, the candi dates on the State ticket were all good men ; but the roars of laughter recalling to his mind the fact that every candidate on the ticket was present, he stammered through a few more remarks, and sat down. J. P. Dunn talked about the economy which he was unable to practice during his last term. J. D. Spencer dilated upon the efforts which the Republicans would make in this, tlieir dying struggle, and then John P. Irish arose, kicked over the waste-paper basket and launched out in a long oration upon national issues. After a while he drifted upon the San Jose Convention and dilated upon its freedom from bossism, trades and bargains of all sorts. During this part of his remarks the face of James V. Coleman, who sat in the front row, was a study to behold. James V. Coleman was next called upon, and the warm applause with which he was greeted disclosed his popularity with tlio boys, His speech was terse and well ar ranged. He confined himself to national is sues and generalizations as to Democratic principles. After him Lawrence Archer, candidate for Railroad Commissioner, wan dered through several yards of oratory in good old exhortation style, aud then Judge Stanly arose and said that a candidate for the Supreme bench, always found safety in golden silence. Chairman Gutte started In to dismiss the meeting to the lunch-room, when a member of the Iroquois Club arose and stated that he had induced Henry H. Hall, candidate* for Superintendent of Public Instruction, to address the gathering. Mr. Hall came forward and rambled through a history of himself from the time he was born to the present, his chief claim to distinct on being that he had a native daughter with three teeth After those in the trout row began to yawn, Mr. Hall closed wiih the remark that if elected ho would suppress sectarian ism iv. the schools, "so help me God." Among those present wero A. C. Paul sell, Charles Gildea, A, H. Loughborough, John C. Ruddick, Iff, J. Tinnin, John Dag gett, J. B. Tread well, Edward McGittegan, Thomas Dillon, Henry Schwartz, W. J.

SIX In.li Full in l'rnntol Ills Killr, Then the lted . Gave Up. A gentleman passed through the city re cently on his way to Excelsior Springs whose name three or four years auo was ono of the most popular in the daily press of that day. It was Mr. John T. Shy of Deming, N. Mex., whose deed of heroism is saving his wife and family from massacre by a band of savage Apaches after a run ning fight of several miles will ever make his name a conspicuous oue in the history of the West. The slory is as fol'ows: Mr. Shy had settled •on a ranch in New Mexico with his wife and young sou, their place being seventeen miles from any other settlement. The ranch was attacked by a roving band of eighteen Apaches, who sought to drive off the stock. • Mr. Shy, who was ■ well . armed and had plenty .of ammunition, placed his .-" wile and child in a place of safety within tho house and then opened fire, which was returned. 'Ihe fight was waged for some time, till one of the Indians succeeded in crawling up to and setting fire to the house. This necessitated flight; so sending Mrs. Shy forward under cover of the smoke of the burning building, the husband and father, carrying his young son under his arm, made a dash for the cover of some thick brush which was growing near by. . ■: _•* ■ An Indian's bullet went through the child's hip and lodged in the father's body, but the fight went on. Mr. Shy ran forward some distance, and then dropping the chi d in the brush would face about and fire at the lead ing pursuer, who would thus be brought to a standstill for a time, 'iheu another short flight and another stand to gain time lor Mrs. Shy, who was fleeing in the front, and so the day was spent. . The Indians finally gave up the chase, which had cost them no less than six warriors, and the exhausted fugitives managed to reach the city of Dem ing with their lives. The wounds received by both father and son were rapidly healed, and now, when the hostiles are forever expelled irom or killed out of that neighbor hood, there is no more flourishing or happy family iv New Mexico than tliat of valorous John T. Shy.— Kansas City Times. THE AMERICAN BOY. No One Ie Ills Equal In Contriving; Mis. chief. -.;'. Can a more mischievous creature be imag ined than the American small boy 1 The wonderful fertility of ideas of this boy was demonstrated to mo In Brooklyn by two street incidents. A large business house is In course of erection at the corner of Fulton and Franklin avenues. I happened to be at that corner just as the workmen quit work. Two of them in charge of a stationary engine carefully banked its fires and left. They wero hardly out of sight when half a dozen boys sneaked up to the engine, and one lifted a second on his shoulders, while the support ed uri bin turned on the valve that supplied steam to the whistle. As soon as it began screeching the youngsters ran away at full speed. I stayed ten minutes to see if any one would come to turn off the steam, hut as I left the whistle was still blowing. Two blocks lower down I saw two prettily dressed girls come out of a drug store, each carrying a syphon of mineral- water. As they walked toward the City Hall a boy stole up behind each of the girls, pressed the faucet of each siphon and the water poured down on the neat dresses of the misses. The boys made good their escape, although an indignant citizen tried to capture them.— N. Y. Star. -.- ■' One of Fulton's Boats. B. W. Camp, one of ihe rostofflce In spectors of this district, lias .made some curious discoveries while traveling over the country in search of those who endeavor to evade Uncle Sam's postal laws. One of these discoveries has a historical interest in view of the fact that it has reference to i the first building of steamboats by Robert Fulton. . • ; ■■-,-.. Away np in Dithith, Minn., is the hull of the Stillnian Witt, stranded on the mud banks, . while her engines have been re moved aud are used to run a shingle-mill. This boat, according to Mr. Camp's infor mation, was one of three originally con structed by Fulton, and she ran for a time between New York and Albany. - Shortly after the completion of the Erie Canal the Witt was towed through the canal to Buffalo, the guards ana paddle-boxes hav ing been removed, and for a number of years was engaged in the lake traffic be tween that point and Cleveland.

Uinta to Anglers. ' >;' Fly fishing at night, to those who are not used to it, is a peculiar and rather uncanny experience. The rushing water looks ns bluck as ink, and even when the sky is bright the shadows cast by the trees and bushes make the stream seem intensely dark. It is better to use only one fly and a short "stout leader. The large trout feed entirely at night during the hot weather, and after one gets used to the strange surroundings it is very charming sport, for the small fish do not trouble the fly then, and the big ones take hold sharp and with a loud splash. Large bright flies should be used as a rule, but, strange to say, in "Lake Co.den in the Adirondack-, the black gnat is the most killing fly. •-. -•__ ■_ - -.-.:-..--. ■:■_*. ~AA-.'r\i As a rule striped bass are not caught on any bait but the genuine article; they seem too shy and suspicious to be tempted by the various imitations.?

If lie had not incautiously given that shout of triumph he might have caught tile couple, but the cry defeated his purpose. The young man lashed the horse and drove down Wash ington avenue toward Newark. . The stout man gave chase, but his horse was exhausted and was driven to a dead stop at the river. He tried to encourage it to further efforts, but it was of no use, and, abandoning it in the road, be hired another rig and renewed the chase.
