FRUIT AND VINE PESTS.

Within the last week the Chief Horticult-
ural Officer has received specimens OF insects
from several counties of the State, all of
which are Injurious to the trees or vines on
which they feed. A vins.grower of south

done by this insect 10 grape vines, etc.. in
past years in some Of tbs Western States.
z very effort should be made to prevent its
spread in California, by clean cultivation, the
destruction of all WEEDS etc, around or near
the vineyard, ard placing straw or hay
around the vines infested early in the season,
in which the pest can take shelter at Ii yht.
Before sunrise the straw, ETC., should be
rsked from the vines and burned. This plan,
Il properly followed, is far better than Paris

pest the use of which is dangerous on this
coast on account Of the absence of rains DUR
ing the summer months.

METROPOLITAN TEEATER.-A good house
greeted the Goodwin Weatherzby troupe last
night. The play was the comedy farce
"The Member for Slocum." 1t involves the
tribulations Of a good sort OF fellow who
stands In awe of his mother.in.law, and is
the victim of her suspicious and tyranny, and
Of the revenge of the wife Of his club-friend,
who charges him with being the cause of her
separation from her husband. Il proved to
bs one OF the merriest OF pieces, and kept the
audience Ia one continued round of uncon-
trollable laughter, due. however, in largest
part to the admirable character acting of
Goodwin and Miss Weathersby (Mrs. Good

her husband. Mrs. Rsiffarth, as the
mother.in.law surprised all who know her by
che advances she has made in comedy-ard

PoLEoN.-The napkin etiquette question
has been discussed by several newspapers
lately. 1t has been claimed that the guest
should leave his napkin in negligent
crumple beside the plate. At hotels and
public places he may do thas, though
'twere better otherwise, or do anything he
pleases with the napkin, except put it in
his pocket; but in private house the
guest will fold his napkin neatly by the
side of his plate, if he wishes to show
his appreciation of the hostess care
and neatness in arranging the table. A
writer in the modern Athens says it is vul.
gar to tuck the corner of napkin under
the chin, and calls men who practice
it unweaned babies with bibs. Queen
Elizabeth did not use napkins. She tore
the meat from the roast with her fingers,
and had hand.tub behind her with an
ever of water, in which she rinsed her
fingers. Sainte Beure fell into disgrace at
the court of Napoleon III. because he
spread his napkin over two knees and cut
his egg in the middle, while he should
have used the napkin unfolded on one
knee, broke the end of the egg, the big
end, and drained with the tip OF the spoon.
They cut his acquaintance after that.
What would have been the result if he
had drawn and spread on his knees his
pocket handkerchief, as they do at modern
picnics "To the guillotine with him, +"
would have been dessert for them and Just
deserts for him. Il Providence Journal.

Changes in the Management of the Cen

SAN Francisco. May 4sh.-For some time
past important changes have been pending in
the management of the Central Pacific Rail.
road. To-day these contemplated changes
were completed. It is probable that Gov.
verror Stanford will retire from the active
management of the road, and hereafter A. n.
Towne, who has been appointed General
Manager, will be invested with the power
heretofore csntered in Governor Stanford.
Mr.. Towne has long been chief executive eff
Ger of the company. Following the example
of number of Eastern corporations, the rail.
road officials have concluded to remove from
the shoulders OF the President Of the COM
pany the open management Of its affairs, and
have consequently reorganizsd the personnel
OF the management as follows A. N. Towne,
General Manager of the Central Pacific sys-
