Big SnOWshed Fire.

Between and o'clock Thursday even
ing about 1000 feet of snowshed on the
line of the railroad, between Soda Springs
and the Summit, faded into smoke and
ashes A special freight train coming west
discovered the fire, but not in season to
turn back, and consequently dashed
through it, there being then about 30 feet
of the shed blazing furiously. Arriving at
a signal box west of the fire, conductor
Murray turned in an alarm. which brought
the fire train to the scene in short order.
AS no trains had passed for several hours,
the fire, which began in the side of the
shed, is believed to have been started by an
incendiary. The track was blockaded by it
for seven or eight hours, but the east bound
passenger train was not delayed, arriving
about the time railroad Communication
was restored. The west-bound express was
detained four hours, and reached Sacra-
mento yesterday morning three and a half
hours behind time.

Mems Cashmere Scarfs Again.

About two weeks ago had in the paper the an
nouncement given below The Scarfs took SO well that
we were soon sold out and have but just been able
get duplicate assortment.
=" 1t has been long while since greater novelty or
more desirable one has been introduced into mems
neckwear than the substitution Of fine cashmere for
silk Silk is still retained for the figures in the
Scars; cashmere for the groundwork. Especially in
light shades cashmere has softness and depth of
that silk does not possess.
The new Scarfs are not expensive Either light
dark patterns, 50 cents.

The Parmansnt Exhibit.

There seems to be nearly unanimous
sentiment in favor of the small tax pro-
posed for the establishment and mainte-
nance of permanent exhibit of the pro-
ducts of Central California, in this city, as
a feature of the immigration work which is
Just commencing to bring important re-
suits. The City Board of Trade, the lmmi-
grafton Association and the Citrus Fair
Association have taken earnest interest in
the matter and actively support the meas
ure, as being in The interest OF every class
of business or occupation, and Of every
propeTty-Owner and resident OF the city.
At a meeting also Of the Executive Com
mittee, and members of the Licensed Deal
ers Protective Association, held on Thurs
dav evening, after the transaction of routine
business, the question of the proposed tax
was considered. After free and full dis
cussion of the subject in all its bearings it
was decided unanimously to warmly favor
the tax. The reasons for this conclusion
were stated to be as follows:
That Central California is rich in soil,
timber and minerals, has an Incompatible
climate, the greatest variety of products,
and room fer tens of thousands more farm
ers than are now here; that land is for sale
at low prices that there is market for
all that can be produced, and there are
ample means of cheap and rapid transport
tation. That it is believed if the fertility
of our soil, the mildness and salubrity of
our climate, and the great variety of our
temperate and semi-tropic productions were
made known by being advantageously dis
played to Eastern visitors through such an
exhibition as now proposed for this city,
we should have large additions of desirable,
Ill FOL IL,
which to increase production.
1t is believed the work done by the I'm
migration Association has been of great
benefit in attracting attention. but the ex-
pense has been borne by few, while the
many who receive equal benefit bear no
part of the burden. That the proposed tax
would be so light as be hardly appreciable,
and that as all classes are to be benefited it
should be unanimously supported.

The verdict of the Jury.

The Matter of Herman Leimbach, in
competent" which has occupied the atten-
ton of Department One of the Superior
Court all the week, was submitted to the
jury about 800 P NJ yesterday. The jury
had propounded to them the question is
Herman Leimbach of unsound mind to
such an extent as to be dangerous to per-
son, health or property" They wrestled
with it over FIVE hours, the majority being
at all times ready to return a verdict in the
negative. Shortly before S o'clock they
came into Court for instructions, and about
an hour later announced that they had
agreed upon a verdict, which proved to be
that Mr. Leimbach was not insane to the
extent mentioned. Naturally he felt quite
iubilant over the verdict, and thanked the
jury heartily. a large number Of friends
congratulated him upon the result Of the
inquiry.

impression made the first night was deep

night, proved his claims to be good to dis
tinciion as an artist of high accomplish
ments. Madame Server was the pet of the
audience. She was recalled with earnest
ness and sincerity, highly mplimentary
Her sweet, rich voice in song, her dramatic
ability, her paNtominic power and inimit-
able power of facial control won to her all
her auditors. All the men were frank to
declare her bewitching and the ladies con-
fessed her charming The troupe is small !;
augmented by good soprano it would be
a combination that would achieve certain
success upon the coast, and could return
here with assurance of fair reward. The

last night, and with such fine effect, was
from the music ware.ooms of l.. K. Ham
