PECULIAR HUNTING.-Sunday morning a
heavy fog prevailed on the adobe lands
west of town. The mist was so dense that
the wild geese flew very close to the
ground. J. K. Eachus became aware of the
latter fact and stationed himself in his cor
raj, with an ax-helye in his hand, to see
whether or not he could bit any of the birds
as they flew by. Intwo hours time he killed
twenty-three geese and four mallard ducks
with his club. Parties hunting along
Butte Creek, during ioggy weather, have
frequently told us of shooting geese when
so close that the flash of the gun singed
their feathers, but this is the first time we
have received reliable information of a
man successfully hunting such game with
a club ridley Herald.

ALPHABET REFoRMATIoS.-There is a Sc
c;ety lately formed in Japan called the
q Roman Alphabet Association" and al
ready it numbers many thousand persons.
The Chinese alphabet. composed of about
10 goo characters, has been discarded, and
the Roman alphabet, with some changes,
substituted. As adopted by the japanese,
the alphabet consists of twenty-five letters.
The consonants are taken at their English
sounds, while the yowels are pronounced
with the Italian accent. The laborious
study required to become proficient in the
japanese language proves it to be too slow
a medium for the acquisition of knowledge
for this awakened and progressive people.

How TO DIE CHEAPLY.-The cost of
cremation by the new company i'll this city,
it is said, costs only $50. The fact that
person dying in New York can have suit
able mortuary rites performed for the COM
paratively small sum of $25 is most inter
esting, and will, we feel sure, do much to
York is luxury, and one about which
most people show strange amount of
thoughtlessness and reconsideration. A citi-
zen can live three years in Arkansas for the
price of a conventionally respectable inter
ment in New York. Yet few take such
fact as this into the slightest consideration
in consenting to demise. We are. indeed,
acquainted with one conscientious old Irish
woman, with q complication of diseases,
who faithfully attends the dispensary, be-
cause she is on her relations" and she
knows and admits that they cannot afford
to bury her. Such q spirit deserves his
torieal record and wide emulation. The
fact is we are much in need of a society
for the cultivation, not of plain living, but
of plain dying. In these hard times it is
often little less than criminal that man
subject his estate to the prolific expendi-
ture of a funeral. We Lave heard of a
gentleman who, at the solicitation of his
wife. gave up tobacco, and thereby, in the
next fifteen years, saved over $500, which
all went at last Tor his burial expenses.
Here was certainly disproportion between
effort and its result that is most painful to
we'll balanced minds, and very dishearten-
ing to the anti-tobacco ropaganda.-Ne1g

LEAD-EAT1EG INsEcTs.-A French archi-
tectural journal recalls an observation
made by Viollet-le-Duc, that lead plates
for roofing and other purposes are often
pierced by insects. He accused the wasps
of being the authors of the little holes that
he found gnawed in lead roofs, but later
observers have discovered that both worms
and flies often drill through heavy plates.
Some twenty-five years ago it was found
that the lead bullets of cartridges that had
been stored in wooden boxes were badly
gnawed, and a number of gall or saw-fiies
were found in the act of working upon
them. Why these little creatures should
amuse themselves in digging out the tough
metal with their jaws, it is hard to say.
Both males and females were found at
work; and the only suggestion that our
Gallo contemporary can make is, that they
were. perhaps, sharpening their teeth. The
first notice Of perforations made by worms
seems to have been made by NJ. Janniard,
formerly official architect in charge of
churches and public buildings, who OF
served that the lead covering of the steps
on the roof of an old house in Paris was
bored through in several places. Only one
of the steps was attacked; and, on looking
closely, he found that every hole in the
lead corresponded to worm hole in the
oak planking on which it was laid.

THERE is one hope which all self
respecting men may fervently express
that never again may there be a campaign
in this State in which falsehood, base as
saults upon reputation and outrageous
libels upon character shall so greatly pre-
vail. 1t is to be said to the shame of the
profession, that considerable portion of
journalistic advocacy Of and opposition to
candidates in the late campaign was dis
gracefully indecent. The RECORD UNION
is not given to sounding its own praises,
but it enjoys the consciousness of not hay
ing knowingly uttered word against any
candidate that was either scandalous or
untrue. 1t takes pride in the expression
of one of the public speakers last week,
who congratulated the people of Sacra-
mento that the leading papers of the city
had not INDUCED in the practices of some
San Francisco journals that so disgraced
