Yosemite Valley,

The report Of the Commissioners TO man
age the Yosemite Valley and the Mariposa
Big Tree Grove has just been issued from
the State Printing Office. The Commission
is composed of the following gentlemen !:
Governor Stoneman, l. W. Raymond, C. L.
Weller, NJ. c. Briggs, w Fl. Mills, J. NJ.
Griffith, J. II. o Brien, Jonathan Nentzner
and y. w. Chapman. Guardian, Walter
L. Dennison. After making financial re-
port the committee makes the following
recommendations
For six or eight weeks in the early sea-
son the Ribbon Virgins Tear Fall, with
its single leap of > 300 feet. is an object of
surprising beauty The concave and cal
dron down and into which it plunges pos
sess weird and peculiar interest in near
view. The foot of the fall can be made
accessible by an outlay of three or four
hupdred dollars.
The Toolooweack Fall is an object which
few have seen. 1t is higher than Nernal,
and makes near approach to ii in beauty.
j trail should be opened from the Glacier
Point House to the crest of the Tooloo-
weack, where 4 bridge could easily and in
extensively be thrown across tle narrow
chasm, and the trail continued through
very practical ground along the rim of the
chaSm of the main river, to the head of
Nevada Fall, where another bridge, con-
structed of red fir inst at hand, could span
the MERGED sixty feet from the crest or lip
of the fall. From this point, horse trail
would be easy of construction around the
foot Of Mount Broderick and the Cap of
Liberty to connect with the South Dome
and Clouds Rest trail. Now, the tourist
must climb to Glacier Point and return to
the valley. This is enough for one day to
most riders. Then another day he must
make the weary ascent to the foot of the
Nevada Fall, ana, if his courage and
strength are equal to the task, climb to the
top oft. With the improvement suggest
ed, tourists could make the entire round
taking in South Dome with little additional
fatigue, and thus enjoy, in a single day.
ride fanked with wonders Of natural
scenery far surprising anything which the
explored portions of our planet elsewhere
afford South Dome is still assembled by
means of rope looped into small iron
keys. II is both laborious and too danger
Gus an undertaking to be achieved bv more
than small fraction of the annual visitors
Substantial means should be constructed to
encourage visitors to ascend TO that I'M
cJualed gazabo. the view from which will
be Il memory for lifetime. Clouds Rest
is now reached by a trail much longer and
more laborious than necessary. A small
expenditure would shorten it, and tighten
the toll Of reaching fully one-third.

About o'clock last evening man was
seen to stagger and fall at the northwest
corner of Second and K streets. and several
gentlemen went to his assistance. 1t was
thought that he had a fit, a carriage was
summoned, and the man taken to the sta
tion-house. When taken from the hack 1t
was discovered that he was dead.s A physl-
clan was summoned, who gave 1t as his
opinion that he died of paralysis OF the
brain, or something OF that KIND Inc de-
ceased was taken into the hall OF the prison,
laid out upon q sofa, and the coroner sent
for. Before the arrival Of the Coroner
several individuals dropped in, who seemed
TO know the deceased, and from them was
learned the fact that he was gambler, or
what is called a sport, whose name was
Thos II. Rioton, but among the sporting
fraternity he was known by the cuphonlous
spbriouet of Chuck" Some four or i've
wears ago his lower limbs WERE paralyzed,
necessitating his getting around on acrutch
and cane. but this disability did not pre-
vent his taking in the State and all the DIS
trict fairs, where he always owned and
managed one or more games OF chance he
came to Sacramento from Oakland last
Monday, and was roomlnS at the
Western Hotel. He was OF medium
hight, dark hair full red face,
sandy mustache and goatee, about 80
wears of age, and would weigh about 10
pounds. The Coroner called Il few mo-
ments after he was left at the station house,
and conveyed the remains to the morgue-
The following articles were found on his
person A large-sized hunting cased gold
watch, SO i'll gold 81 80 in silver, $25 in

tacles, a diary, and several other small ar
ticles. On the fly leaf of his diary was
written, "Thos H Rioton, 991 Pine street

METRoPoLTAN THEATER. This estab
lishment has been leased for this week by
the sprightly little actress and general
favorite. Miss Katie Putnam. who, sup
ported by her own company, will present a
series OF pleasing performances, commence
ing this evening with the four-act comedy
drama entitled Lena, the Madcap.' Miss
Putnam will be remembered by Sacra-
mento theater-goers as having done much
for their pleasure during her engagement
here last spring Her style is similar to
that of Lolita. She is of fascinating APP
pearance, has pleasant voice, a hearty
laugh, sings remarkably well, and is capa-
bic Of completely identifying herself with
the character portrayed. The Portland
OregohiGa says of her: Whether we look
at her as Little Nell or its companion part,
Lena, Fanchon or Little Detective, she
is the most genuinely natural actress
we have had at Newmarket Theater for a
number of seasons. She may 90 away
feeling this and that she is also the most
popular one. Her success has been most
decided and unequiyocal, and its degree is
greatly heightened by the fact that our
theater-goers are not only critical. but

ADAMS BIG MARE.-The Napa Reporter
says concerning this animal, well known
here: Uncle Johnny Adams arrived in
Napa Tuesday with his big mare, the ami
NAL that lost the half-mile race at San
Francisco last Saturday. The mare was
quartered at the training stable ON First
street, and during the day scores of visitors
went to see the fastest quarter horse in
the world From what we can learn there
was very likely considerable foul play in
the race run at san Francisco. Solue time
ago man by the name of Whitney pur-
chased the mare from MIR. Adams, paying
part cash down. She was then matched
against the Oregon horse for s., 800 a side,
but there are doubts about the money ever
being put up. The general impression
seems to be that il was a put-up race, the
new owners of the big mare putting up all
their money on the other horse Mr.. Adj
ans denounCes the whole thing as q swim
die, and as the balance Of the money due
him was not forthcoming, he demanded
possession Of the animal. and will take her
home and keep her until he gets his
money"
