Another burglary.

Some time during the night of Thursday
a burglar entered the basement of the resi-
dence Of Daniel Brown, L street, between
Fourteenth and Fifteenth, and took there
from a step-ladder with the aid of which
he entered rear window of the house.
The thief evidently was in search of money,
for a gold watch and other valuables re-
manned untouched. The only property
stolen, or at least all that is missed, was
the change in Browns pantaloons pocket,
ten-dollar gold piece and bogus ten
cent piece. After the thief thoroughly
ransacked the house he made his exit
from the front door. The thief evidently
was well acquainted with the premises, or
he would not have known where to find
the ladder, which was slowed away in a
dark portion of the basement.

In Memorr OF rloneer sntter.

EDS. REcoRD-UYfoN In my opinion one
Of the pioneers whose memory should
never be forgotten by the citizens of our
State is that of General Suffer. l have
often looked with regret on the crumbling
ruins of Suffers fort and wished that some
memerto of the dead could mark the spot
where one of our earliest pioneers dispensed
his hospitality TO the weary foot-sore pio-
neers VINO had made the journey across the
plains Ia find home in the beautiful wales
of the Golden State | believe. Mr. Editor,
that if any pioneer ever had any claim on
cur gratitude, it was General Suffer,
hope the citizens of Sacramento, with their
usual Eoerality, will cause some suitable
monument to be erected on the site of the
old fort, concentrating the virtues of this
generous-hearted pioneer.

THE STATE CAPITOL.

4 structure modelled after the same classic
style of architecture that characterizes the
Capitol building at Washington. Its dome
rises to hight of 30 feet above the streets.
The building stands upon the plane of the
upper of two terraces, and its base is thus
some fifteen feet above the street level, CIV
ing fitting dignity TO the approaches. The
upper park is laid out in drive ways and
promenades, and the grounds are rich in
floral wealth and tropic plants, rare shade
trees and Towering shrubs. The westerly
half is admirably kept in blue grass and
clover turf the easterly half being still in
progress of improvement. Upon the out
skirts of this latter section are located the
Agricultural Pavilion and Industrial Hall
of the State, a cruciform wooden structure
of pleasing proportions. and 400 feet in
length in the four directions, by uniform

being asked yesterday by representative
of the REcoRD- UNION as to the prospect
of the Fruit-Growers Association com
mencing the running of fruit trains, re-
piled as follows
There is not enough fruit coming in a
present to make up special trains, the
thing necessary 10 secure a reduction of
$500 in freight rates. The reasons why this
condition of affairs exist are that the crop
this year is light in comparison with last
year, and the recent unprecedented heavy
north wind did much damage 70 it in this
vicinity. There is also the facl that those
who have the controlling power III the
Fruit Union stubbornly refuse to assist in

purpose, but on the contrary, seem de-
termined to do all in their power to pre-
vent, II possible any reduction in freights,

given to them. Telegiaphic dispatches

with much elnphasis) state that Dir. Porter,

Leavy was detailed to look after the mat
ter, and proceeded with the informant to
the rear of Adams, Mcneil q Co.'S store,
where the oil had been concealed. The
thieves were there and had taken the sack

ton of going back to the oil-house for
more. They were both taken to the sta

can from it.

The moisture Of the atmosphere will

croscopical examination proves that the
pores invite the ascent of moisture while
they repel its decent. Take the familiar
case of a wooden bucket. Some of the

while Others aIc apparently dry. The
reason is that the dry slaves arc in the
position the tree grew, while the sat-
urated ones are reversed.
