THE HOLIDAY SEASON.
TRADE AND BUSINESS DIRECTORY
OF SACRAMENTO FOR 1885.
Business Houses at Which Superior
Inducements are offered for
Holiday Goods, Etc.

II has become an established fact throughout
the coast that better bargains can be made with
Sacramento merchants than can be with those
of any other city in the State. The interior mer-
chant no longer deals with the San Francisco
wholesaler, but comes 10 Sacramento, where he
can buy the same goods for a considerably less
sum of money What is true of the wholesale
merchant is equally true of the retailer and
small dealer. 1t is gratifying to all who desire
the prosperity of our city to notice the improve
ments made in the merchandising business of
Sacramento yearly. The advance in this direc-
tion during the past year has been most marked;
very few failures have been chronicled all the
merchants are carrying heavier and more varied
stocks, there is much activity and apparent
prosperity all along the line. The stores and
trading places throughout the city are just now
filled to overlooking with holiday stocks, and
an extra force of clerks are kept busy waiting
upon customers and turning goods into cash.
In order to aid those who are about to make
purchases, either of holiday goods, articles of
personal adornment. household furnishings and
supplies in general and in accordance with our
annual custom, a list is given below of mer-
chants and others whose judgment and pru-
dence has led them to announce in the columns
of the RECoRD-UNIoN their goods and claims for
the public patronage and favor. careful pc

NEYSTERIOUS DROWNING.
An Unknown Man Found Floating
in the River.

Yesterday afternoon between , and 3
O'Clock, as the steamer Comet was max
ing Teasdale's dock, parties standing on
the wharf discovered the body of a man
floating in the river, Il few feet in rear of
the boat, which was doubtless brought
to the surface by the wheel of the steam
er. a rope was quickly procured and he
was tied to the dock, when the coroner
was notified, but as there was no evil
dence of a crime having been committed
no inquest was held.
The remains were turned over to IN
dertaker Mooney, who placed the body
on the dock and searched the clothes for
soce evidence of his identity but found
none. In a red handkerchief was found
two silver dollars and ten cent piece,
and in another pocket a $50 bank
note, and in the inside pocket was found
an empty whisky flask, telling its silent
story of the probable cause of the mans
death. Two or. three bills were also
found in his pocket for merchadise pur-
chased in Jacksonville, but no name was
on them.
The body had evidently been in the
water more than twenty four hours, as
it was very much swollen, and the lips,
nose. eyeballs and parts of the face had
been eaten away by crabs. His hair was
jet black, and every appearance of the
man indicated that he was an Italian or
Spaniard. He was dressed in blue coat,
flannel shirt and Overalls over his pants,
showing him to be a laborer, and prob
ably one of the crowd of Italians that
passed through the city few days since.
The end of the right index finger was
off, but no other special marks were no.
ticed.
SO far as we could learn no such man
has been missed about Palatka, and no
one knows anything about him or where
or how ne came to be in the water.
