that such was not the case. The Chinese
fish men assert that they do not throw any
dead fish in, as it is to their interest to salt
down or dry any that they are unable to

On Saturday evening, May 9th, the Goed
Templars of Hicksville publicly installed
their officers for the ensuing term. Quite a
number were in attendance from Gait and
| Clay. Lodge Deputy, James Ferguson, of
Cresco No. 203, installed the officers.
Hicksville Lodge is steadily growing, and
its members take an active interest in the
work. Its membership numbers between
twenty-five and thirty, with good indica-
tons of reaching fifty before the close of
the year. The Lodge has many friends in
that vicinity who are not members of the
Order, and from the combined influence of
the members and their outside friends very
satisfactory results are anticipated

The attendance at Recreation Park yes
terday afternoon to witness the base ball
game between the Occidentals, of San Fran
cisco, and the Unions, of Sacramento, was
gratifyingly large, and the reserved seats
in the stand, Tor ladies and their escorts,
were well filled The game was the 1irst OF
the new State League series, and was
played spiritedly and in excellent humor.
The Occidentals were not able to do them
selves justice, as some of their best men
were unable to come up, and their positions
had to be filed by others. Charles Robert
son, of this city, played second base for
them and did it well. The Unions played
a strong game generally, though the big ad-
vantage they gained early in the fight made
them a little reckless occasionally. They
won with an inning to spare as follows:

The Occidentals will play at San Jose
next Sunday, and the Intrepids, of Marys-
vile, or some other club of the League, will
meet the Unions here. Judging from the
large crowds attending the games, baseball
is more popular in Sacramento than any
other place on the coast.

printers nine, resulting in favor of the
former by 10 to Is.

| Trdde-SIR: | have to acknowledge your favor
of the 18th instant .inquiring whether provision
| had been made by the Government for taking
census of each state in 1855, and whether pro
| vision had been made for partial payment of
| expenses thereby. In reply | have to say that
the Act of Congress, approved March s. 1879,
contains a provision Tor taking the semi-decen-
NAL census of each State by State officers or
| duly appointed agents, during the two months
| beginning on the first Monday of June in 1885.
and every ten years thereafter. Section % of
said law also provides for the payment by the
United States Government of one half OF the ex-
pense OF taking such census The census must
be taken during the months OF June and July
and full and authentic copies OF all schedules
must be filed in-the Office Of the Secretary of the
Interior on or before the first of September fol-
lowing. The blanks must be provided by the
state according TO samples furnished by the
! United States.
The Legislature of this State has. however,
made no appropriation Of money to pay the
State portion of the expense of taking such
census neither has any machinery been pro
vided by the State for the appointment of cen
sus officers, or for carrying out the intent and
provisions Of the law Of Congress.
From the above state of facts, you win readily
see that il would be impossible to provide for
taking the census of the State in this year.

greatly superior in color and brilliancy
to all the other famous diamonds of the
world, the largest of which, the Grand
Mogul," is In the possession Of the Shah
of Persia, weighing, after being cut, $50
carats; next in size follows the "Orlof, T"

ZIG carats, but in its present form reduced
TO 1929 carats. The "Regent," one of
the French crown jewels, weighs 1864
