MEETING OF PRISON Directors The
Board of State Prison Directors met the
State Board of Examiners at the State Capt.
tol yesterday at 10 a. NJ. Informally they
discussed several matters. One was the prop
osition of getting the sanction of the Exam
liners authorizing the Directors to provide
funds for carrying on the State Prison at San
Quentin, the appropriation of the last Demo.
cratic Legislature being totally inadequate
for that purpose. From the present time un-
til the 1st of July next year, 50 900 month
and the earnings Of the prison will not be
more than enough to defrsy the expenses of
the institution. At that time the appropria-
tiOn for the following fiscal year will be avail
able but before the end of the year another
deficiency. similar to the one of this year,
will present itself and have to be provided
for. During the last Legislature, it will be
remembered by all who read the proceedings
of the Legislature, Warden Ames en-
deavored to get larger appropriation, claim
ing that the prison could not be properly
maintained for less than he stated. 1t was
finally decided to hold meeting at San
Quentin on Monday next. when all matters
relative to finance would be fully discussed
and the Board decide upon q certain amount
which they deem necessary, and formally
make a statement of all the needs of the
prison to the Board of Examiners, upon
which the latter can act.
GooD.BY, DEvII.-An enthusiastic youth
who took in the sights of Chinatown last even
ing writes as follows: 1.-THE China residents
of Sacramento are marvelously busy Just now
driving John Satan out of the lower portion
of street. All good people will wish them
all the success possible in this holy work.
Let the horrible fiddle and gong exorcism go
on and increase till the loud racket browns
the wild melodies of pandemoniGm itself /;
till the regions around | street clear up TO ths
Court-house are as devoid of devil as G Rec.
ORD. UNION reporter is devoid of sin. Keep
the music going, John. Give the enemy of
human souls no rest. Rustic him out of the
entire street. Don't let him get at the Board
Of Supervisors, or the Trustees, or the Board
of Health, or the reporters, or lawyers and
other good people. Keep him from possessing
those who persist in duhping cabbsge.lesves
and dead csts into Lake Camo. Remember
the hogs that foundered in Genesareth; let
not our silvan frog-pond be turned into q
modern Galllee. Chase him out of every
stronghold; out Of the State; out of the
county out of the city; out Of the Bee Of
flee"
