Thick skins.

The whale, which belongs to the nam.
malta, no doubt holds the palm for thick
ness of skin. At some parts of the body
the skin is only two inches thick. but in
many places its pelt is fully two feet in
thickness. The skin of the whale is the
substance usually known as blubber, and
in large specimen will weigh altogether
more than thirty tons. The distinction OF
being the thickest-skinned quadruped be-
longs to the Indian rhinoceros, whose hide
has knotty or granulated surface, and is
so impenetrable as to resist the claws of
the lion or tiger, the sword, or the balls OF
the old-fashioned musket. So stiff and
hard is this skin that were it not divided
by creases or folds the animal imprisoned
IN It's armor could scarcely move. 1t is
manufactured into leather of great
strength and durability, and targets and
shields are made of it that are absolutely
proof against darts or sword strokes. The
skin of the hippopotamus runs that of the
rhinoceros very closely as regards thick.
ness. When dried it is also used fol
shields, which are highly priced by the
natives.

captain Emory Explains How the Com
pany Funds were Discussed.

charged by members of his company, the
Colored Guard, with having misappropri-
ated funds collected by him for the benefit
OF the company, makes the following re-
port OF disbursements on the company's
account. He states that all of the items
gwen were passed upon ard audited by the
Executive Committee of the company

Suness on his part, but that the Secretary

such manner as to show what was done :;
mat he received no assistance whatever
from other members, either in soliciting
funds or looking after the wants of the
company that necessary purchases of sup
pIies had to be made by himself, and that
money used from the uniform fund for
other purposes was to have been repaid
from the general fund, but that the general
1und exists only in name: that out of
forty-sIx members only about eight are
persons OF any means; that some of the
men have not paid in cent since the first
meeting N January, and that he has done
the best he could for the company's inter-
and vllilcation. Since the action of the
company regarding Captain Emory has

The ailments which afflict the kidneys
and bladder are so numerous that merely
to name them would fill space far ont
running the limits of this article. Suffice
1t TO say, that they are both obstinate and
dangerous. To their prevention Hostel
ters Stomach Bitters is well adapted. The
stimulus which it lends TO the action of the
kidneys when they are lethargic serve TO
counteract tendency in them to lapse,
first, into state of pernicous inactivity,
and afterwards into one of positive organic
disease, which soon destroys their deli
cate integuments, poisons the blood and
causes death. A double purpose is served
by this depurent. 1t promotes activity of
the kidneys, and expels impurities from
the blood which have no natural channel
OF outlet, except these organs Constipa-
ton, billousness, fever and ague, rheuma-
tlsm, and dyspepsia are also remedied by
this medicine of thorough action and wide
scope.

UNCLE SANS DAY.
Red-Skinned and Pale-Faced Native Sons
to ne In the Prncessinn

Red-Skinned and Pale-Faced Native Sons
to be in the Procession.
A meeting of the Fourth of July Exec.
utive Committee was held in the Office OF
Justice c. w. Baker last evening. Several
of the different committees reported that
they had made final arrangements for the
celebration
G. K. McClatchy of the Literary Com
mittee reported thst he had been notified
by John Vance Cheney, who had been
selected as poet for the day, 10 the effect
that, on account of throat troubles, he
could not possibly take part in the exer-
cises on that day. Mr.. McClatchy stated
that, with the sanction of the committee,
he bad concluded to ask Miss Nav Powers
of Woodland to act as Poet of the Day, and
would communicate with her at an early
date
The Executive Committee Endorsed Mr..
McClatchy's selection, and Miss Powers
will undoubtedly be invited to serve.
Grand Marshal Stephens stated that Cap
tain Sam of the Piutes had made a request
of him that the committee set aside a GER
tain amount of money, and he would have
eight bucks and two squaws (amCng the
latter his daughter) participate in the
morning parade and give a war-dance at
the Pavilion in the afternoon. He thought
they might be engaged for $50. Accord
ingly, the committee authorized Mr.. Steph-
ems to perfect arrangements with the red
skins.
The matter of appropriating money for
paying for the horses which the police are
to ride on the Fourth was discussed, and it
was finally decided that, in view of the
lack of funds, they could not accede to the
wishes of the policemen.
w. A. Gett stated that there would be
between seventy and eighty Native Sons
from the Elk Grove, Courtland, Sacramento
and other surrounding Parlors participate
in the parade.
A resolution was passed, asking that the
committee of the " Horribles be requested
to postpone their parade until 6 o'clock in
the evening, when they would have ample
time between that hour and shutdown to
cover their line of march.
The meeting adjourned till next Monday
evening at s o'clock sharp.
