Letter from Lake County.

EDS. REcoRD-U MON In connection with
the comments of the press concerning the
contrast between the weather in this State
and the terrible billiards at the East. per-
nit me to say: When L was a Young lad
| had to work out for living. Ny parents
were poor, and mother died when | was
about or years old had two brothers
and one sister. We emigrated from Ken
lucky III 1881 or 1882, in company with the
Bogus family, to Macoupin county, III.
There We settled as neighbors on what is
called Otter creek The winter of 1887
was one of the coolest and with most sud
den changes ever experienced. Samuel
Bogus. the man ! was living with, had
raised crop of tobacco, and had laid it up
to strip. e., stem-in winter evenings.
Some time about the 1st of January it had
showed about four or five inches deep.
One morning drilling rain set in, and it
rained until about p. NJ, when the wind
suddenly changed into the northwest We
were comfortably in the house, stemming
tobacco, and did not realize what was COM
inH till the wind was blowing q heavy
gale. In just thirty minutes from the
time it commenced it frcze hard enough
to bear up man on the ice.
The whole country was one sheet of ice.
AS we had no thermometers in those DAYS
to tell the strength of cold weather, we
took cup of water, holding it up as high
as our heads, letting it drop to the floor.
By the time it reached the floor it was ice.
great many horses and cattle had their
limbs broken by falling on the ice, and
hundreds of wild beasts persisted during the
cold spell. Once since that time, | think
about 1850, the whole country was COW
cred with ice, and great many horses
and cattle were crippled and killed in a
similar manner.
There was storm on Cobb Mountain,
near here, on the Goth of last month, COM
mencing in the night and lasting all the
next day. The wind came from the south
east. 1t was certainly the hardest storm
Z" Old Cobb y has witnessed for the last
twenty years. 1t broke off some trees and
uprooted others. At one place, within an
area of eight rods, six or eight trees were
blown down or broken off, some over thirty
inches in diameter Our storms here, how
ever, are free from the freezing cold to
which | have referred, as experienced at
the East w.
Glenbrook, Lake county, Feb. Is, 1886.

Looking After the Refugees.

Ching Ping Chinese Vice-Consul at San
Francisco, accompanied by his secretary,
arrived here yesterday morning from Ma
rysville. He has been for some time visit
ing Red Bluff and other places, to inquire
INTO the nature of the proceedings taken
against the Chinese residents. A few DAYS
ago he was at Nieolaus to make inquiry
relative TO the recent expulsion of the Ce-
lestials from that vicinity, but about all the
information he got was from the Cinnamon
who had been allowed to remain there to
close up business, the whites having been
notified by telegraph of his mission before
his arrival. He will remain in Sacramento
two or three days arranging to have the
Nicolaus refugees cared for. In response to
inquiry, he said that if he had some of
teers to accompany him he would take the
Cinnamon back to Nicolaus

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
THOSE OPINIONS.

The Attorney-General Speaks of His Re-
lations With the Controller.
Attorney-General Marshall was asked this
morning, says last evenings San Francisco
Post, what was the reason of his letter to
Controller Dunn, declining to furnish him
with any more opinions Mr.. Marshall
said When got home from Washing
ton found two letters from Mr.. Dunn ask
ing my opinion. One was about the Nc
Carthy warrants; the other was about the
Croker loan. / have become tired of Civ
ing an opinion simply so that Dunn can
shoulder tire responsibility OIL onto me.
He makes up his mind what he wants to
do. Then ne asks my opinion If it coin
cldes with his wishes, he follows my adj
vice. If 1t does not, he gets another opin-
ION from his private legal adviser. and does
what he wants to. ! don't propose to be
made use of in that way any longer, and
wrote him that letter, which he has seen fit
TO publish-not that | care a cent about it.
About the Mccarthy warrants, am clearly
OF the opinion that Dunn has made him
self liable for the sum he drew those war
rants Tor. When Mccarthy returns, or
when we find that he is not coming back.
viii go into the thing thoroughly
About the Croker loan, the Legislature
passed resolution authorizing the Con-
roller to repay the loan at a certain time
with interest. When the day of payment
arrived, the money which was expected to
be paid into the treasury was not there, and
he wanted to know whether he should pay
the interest up to the time the payment
was actually made. OF course, am of the
opinion that he should pay it, butt decline
any longer to be treated as be has treated
me for the past two years. 1t is Just the
way he treated Murphy when he was Audi
tor There was no need to borrow that
money from Croker. / had the money in
my possession and would have loaned it to
the State They need not have accepted it
as a payment from the railroad, and it
would have saved all the interest

RACES AT THE PARK.
A Good Days spor.- Sensation and WASH
board Victorious.


The announcement that two matched
trotting races would take place at Agricult-
ural Park yesterday afternoon, brought to-
gether a large number of people. The day
was pleasant, slight breeze blowing from
the south, and the track in very good con-
dition. The Judges were Christopher
Green, Maurice Toomey and Horatio Hurd.
Timers, ]. w. Wilson, w. Gardner and Ed
F. Smith. Distance Judges, Frank Du-
poister and John Barrett.
The first event of the day was match
race between +. A. Jones grey gelding
Sensation and J. r. Hodson's bay FLY
Grotto Maid. Jones was mounted in a cart
behind his own horse, while Dan Dennison
handled the ribbons behind the filly in a
sulky. Both animals appeared in fine con-
dition, the gelding being the favorite in the
pools at $40 to ST.
After several attempts the animals had
good start, but both broke badly on the first
turn. The Maid led until near the score,
when Sensation forged to the front, win
ming easily by several lengths. The fily
broke several times during this heat, and
seemed to be a better runner than a trotter.
Dennison's voice, as he hallooed to the
mare, and the crack of his whip, could be
heard from every point ON the track. Tee
judges. when Dennison weighed in, read
him the rule relative to whipping running
horse, and told him if they heard his
/" whoop-la" again it would cost him $40
a whoop
The second heat was won by Grotto
Maid, who crossed the score several lengths
IN advance of Sensation. Many claimed
that the heat should have been awarded to

upper turn.
The third heat Unexpectedly decided the
race Dennison, by running the mare,
Kept her IN the lead until near the three
quarter pole, when Sensation went to the
front and won the heat in a jog by several
open lengths. The judges announced that
Grotto Maid was distanced for running, and
awarded the race and money to Jones.
