SPARE THE BUCKS.
The Close Season for Sacramento County
Commenced Last Sunday,

AhC OAObC CCNbOh fOI DaCTdIltnbO OOUuty
Commenced Last Sunday.
The Board of Supervisors of this county
last year passed an ordinance making the
close season for ducks from April LIST to
September 18th. This was wise provision,
and will be the means of protecting the
mallards, canvas backs, red-heads and gray
ducks that feed in the tule marshes. The
sweeping laws passed a few years ago,
which left these toothsome birds without
any protection, came near working their
determination, as all sportsmen in this
vicinity are well aware. The ducks that
breed in this portion of the State do not do
that damage to the grain fields complained
of by farmers. The birds they find fault
with are the geese and other migratory
birds.
The sportsmen's clubs of this city, the
Foresters and Pacifics, will do all in their
power to see that the ordinance protecting
the ducks in this county is observed.
Pigeons are quite plentiful, and the Pa
cifics and Foresters will commence series
of trap shoots. The latter will have team
shooting the same as last season, which
very materially increases the interest. The
Captains next Sunday will be Otto Miller
aud Henry Eckhardt.
The grounds at Agricultural Park are be-
ing put in good shape, and will be used on
Sundays alternately by the two clubs.

Company AS Captain.

Captain Fred. Eisenmenger has been
elected Chief of Company A, First Artillery
Regiment an Office for which he has
yearned for years. 1t has been the hight of
his ambition to be recognized as the leader
of company in which he learned the first
rudiments of military matters, and now
that the prize is in his grasp, he will be
able to demonstrate what he can do to
build up the company and make it what it
was few years back, the pride of Sacra-
mento in drill matters,

Change OF Time Desired.

EDS. RECORD UNION: The departure of
the suburban train of the Southern Pacific
Railroad from Sacramento at $40 P. N.
causes much disappointment in this vi
cinity. The men in all departments of the
railroad shops are now required to work
until P. NJ, and in all other industrial pur-
suits in Sacramento mechanics are ex-
pested to quit work at the same hour, con-
sequently those who labor in the city, and
whose homes are located along the line of
railroad are compelled to board in Sacra-
mento, and others, who proposed to build
homes for their families along the same
line, are deferred from doing so for the
same reason. Respectfully yours,
Perkins, April 4, 1888. RUSTIC.

Another Drainage Claim.

P. Callahan, by his attorney, J. H. Grad
dock, has brought suit in the Superior
Court of this county against Controller
Dunn, petitioning that the defendant be
required to draw warrants for the payment
of 81 SIS for property which was taken and
condemned in the formation of Drainage
District No. 1. The complaint recites the
various Acts passed for the payment OF
drainage claims, and alleges that there is
now more than $4,000 in the State
Treasury to be devoted to such payments.
The claim has been duly allowed by the
State Board of Examiners. The Controller
has waived the issuance and servance of an
alternative writ of mandate and stipulated
to answer the complaint.

Wouldn't be Knocked Out.

A fight of some twenty rounds, with
bare knuckles, took place yesterday after
noon in the vacant lot just west of the Hall
of Records between two boys about fifteen
years of age. They were about evenly
matched as to weight, though one was con-
siderably taller than the other. The fight
was witnessed by large crowd of men and
boys, who stood on the sidewalk and en-
couraged the combatants.
The short, thick boy fought Ia Sullivan,
while the tall boy wore himself out in try
ing to get out of the way. When pressed
into corner he would do pretty good fight
ing but as soon as an opportunity offered,
he would adopt Mitchelrs tactics of dodg-
ing and running. A Deputy Sheriff finally
put stop to the fight and the match was
declared off. The short boy wanted to re-
sumo operations. but the taller one did not
seem anxious. Neither of them received
any injuries.

met with serious and painful accident at
Glen Gardens Tuesday. He was engaged
in budding number of young peach trees.

to leave tree for moment, he pushed the
handle of the knife in the ground and
stepped away for few moments. Return
ing he kneeled at the root of the tree, plac-
ing his knee on the knife, which pierced
the flesh to the bone, causing deep and
painful wound, and which may result in a
stiff joint.

"Our Empire in Africa

The English papers continue to afford
evidence that the time is fast approach

the pockets OF the British taxpayers.
The 81. James gazette. under the signiii-
cant caption Of 1.-THE New African En-
pre-" gives long description OF the
territory, as far as known, which has
been taken up by the "lmperial British
East-African Company, and after stating
that it may we'll be that the charter of
the company is destined to be one Of
"the most momentous documents that
have ever been enrolled il the chancery
of history" adds;
"Some little time ago it seemed that
Great Britain was being left behind in
the scramble for Africa. but the fOrma.
ton OF this great trading company comes
rs a reminder that English energy and
enterprise are. when the occasion arises,
ready and resourceful. These trading
companies have rendered IN the past
services TO British trade and to British
rule which are altogether beyond exag-
gerAtion. Trading companies secured
for us much of Canada-that immense
Dominion so little known but so full OF
infinite possibilities the East India
Company welded together, bit by bit,
our empire in the East.
That tells the whole story of British

A Good Campaign Document.


The debate in the Senate Thursday
upon CHANDLER's resolution for inquiry
into the last Louisiana election, which
involved the choice Of United States
senators from that State, would make
good campaign document for our Demo
cratic speakers. II should be read from
the stump as showing to what length
the malignants would go in dealing
with the South had they the power,
How any southern white man can
vote with party whose leaders
utter such libels upon this section is
matter that almost passes comprehen.
sion. In the debate referred to CHAND-
LER spewed out his venom in whole
sale indictment of the South for fraud,
violence. and murder. while SPooSER
especially revealed, the animus Of his
party by indirectly arraigning the Presi-
dent for appointing southern men to
high Office. and thus proving himself to
De President Of the nation rather than
OF a section.
