Permanent Exhibits,

The fruit that ripens at this season of the
year is quite perishable, and will look fresh
only for few hours after being picked. In
consequence it is very difficult to keep a
good display of fruit on hand at the new
exhibit building. +. W. Maslin came
down from Loomis yesterday, and says
that the exhibit from Placer county will
be very fine, not only in the permanent ex-
hibit building, but at the State Fair.

certain to have q phenomenal growth.
Those who accompanied the excursion on

its future prospects. They all agreed that

The ingenious Ya1kee who
invented Wigwam Slippers
doubtless got his first i<1ea
from the Indians. However
I that aaay be, the slipper as
now perfected shows that he
had some radical ideas of his
own as to comfort, and what a
slipper should be to give sat
isfaction in wear. 1t will be
noticed that all the seams are
sewed on the outside, ieav-
ing the insides as smooth as
glass. Unlike any other
leather slipper that we have
ever seen or heard of, the
thick, light-colored leather is
pressed stiff into shape, which
also adds greatly to comfort
and GOODNESS.
" Its a mere novelty" some
may say. We think it is more
than that. We think the Wig
wan Slipper has come to stay.
There's nothing we know of
that equals it for summer wear.

A MYSTERIOUS CASE.
Man Found Dead on the lSorth LeVe
Yesterday Morning.

A Man Found Dead on the lSorth LeVee
Yesterday Morning.
Early yesterday morning some parties
who were travelling in the vicinity of Thir-
teenth and q streets were attracted by the
form of a man lying on his face just over
the levee. They proceeded to investigate
and found the man dead, a murderous-
looking pistol lying at his side, which
from all appearances, had just been dis
charged. The Coroner was notified and
the remains taken TO the morgue shortly
after 9 A. N. Throughout the day scores of
people called 10 see the remains but no one
identified them.
That it was a case of suicide all supposed
from the finding OF the empty pistol, but
when the body was stripped at the Morgue
no wounds of any kind could be found.
The man evidently was stranger in this
section. He had no valuables of any kind,
no letters to assist in his Identification. In
one of his pockets was small memoran-
DUN book and pencil. From entries
therein, the deceased no doubt had been
working in the redwoods of Humboldt
county. In this book was an advertising
card of the Revere House, of Eureka, Cal,
and receipt for registered letter made out
to Dick n. Kolans. the letter addressed to
Mrs. Anna Dick, New York. 1t was made
out in January last and signed by The Post
master at Arcata. Deceased's name no
doubt was Dick n. Kolans The Coroner
will hold an inquest this evening.

ID. Redding, agent of the United States
Fish Commission, and DR.. H. W. Hark-
ness, came up from San Francisco last
evening to meet the special car containing
the plant of young Holsters shipped from
Woodshole, Mass, to be planted at points
on this coast. One point selected for locat-
ing them is at Santa Cruz, and others near
Point Reyes, while few will be placed
in the aquarium as Woodward's Garden.
The water of San Francisco Bay is regarded
as not sufficiently saline, and as also too
impure for successful breeding of Holsters.
There were about 800 of the fish when
the shipment left Woodshole, and large
supply of the ova. Some of the young
have died en- route, but it is believed that
transplanting will be successful, although
the present warm weather is unfavorable.

Popular Education.

We sympathize with the feeling which
often leads citizens to boast that no child
born in this country need grow up in lgno-

who have learned to read and write have

A MURDEROUS TRIO.

LoWeu.
Sheriff Anderson, of FL Dorado county,
and two of his deputies came to the city yes
terday morning for the purpose of taking
John Henry Myers, John Olsen and VIM
Drager to Placerville to answer to the
charge of murder. The men were wanted
here as witnesses in the case of John Steen,
charged with receiving stolen property,
which will come up tomorrow in the Po-
lice Court, but this was not the greatest OBJ
stacle in the way of removing the prison.
ers to FL Dorado county. They had been
examined in the Police Court on a charge
of grand larceny and committed to the
custody of the Sheriff of Sacramento
county to answer to that charge in the Su-
perior Court. Sheriff Drew therefore
doubted his authority to turn them over to
the Ell Dorado authorities, and was
confirmed in his view of it by a consulta-
ton with District Attorney Bruner and
Judge Armstrong, VINO decided that the
prisoners could not be removed without an
order of the Superior Court of this county.
As both the Judge and District A ttorney
were engaged yesterday in the trial for
murder OF John George, the order could not
be obtained and the FL Dorado authorities
returned without the men. They will
probably be kept here as witnesses until
after Saturday and be taken TO Placerville
on Monday next.
