This presents the whole question as
drawn out by the investigation of the Fol-
som Water-power Company, TO the success
of which the people OF Sacramento look
forward with the livelest interest. Neither
they nor the RECORD UNION take any con-
Germ as to what system OF motors, or what
patented or other means of transmission
may be adopted by that company, so long as
II carries out its intentions (which tits PROV

A vENrUREsoME YOUTH
Steals a Railroad Ticket and Starts
for Boston.

Dresden station of the Maine Central is
one of those from which tickets to other sta
tlons are filled out in writing from small
book, not being supplied with regular tick
cts. One day recently the ticket agent after
making out ticket for passenger, laid the
book down and was called out of his office
Tor short time. A young chap about IA
who had witnessed the making out of the
ticket, picked up the book and, writing In
the next vacant place, Dresden to Boston"
tore out the coupon and pocketed it without
the ticket agents knowledge. He footed II
to Richmond and boarded Jewett's train on
Friday afternoon. That gentleman, ON tax
ing the ticket, noticed the way in which 1t
was made out and that it was not right; as
no book tickets are issued to Boston, but
supposed that the agent. being a new man,
had made mistake. He asked the boy how
much the ticket cost, the youth replying
81 30. This is 40 cents more than the regu-
lar fare, and so the conductor remarked,
but passed on determined to watch the boy
At Brunswick the boy left the train. jew
EFT missed him and telegraphed the condnc-
tor of the Yankee" which followed imme-
diately, to watch for the ticket and arrest
the holder. As was expected the fellow
boarded the yankee" and was arrested by
Its conductor, and on reaching Portland was
delivered into Conductor Jewett's hands,
who in turn delivered him over to General

the BARRIERS PICNIC.
Fifty ExcurslonIsts Have a Good
Time at Long Island.

Yesterday the BARRIERS of this city went to
Long Island on their first annual picnic.
Nearly every shop In the city was closed,
and notwithstanding the drizzliDg rain
nearly fifty of the craft boarded the Emita at
o'clock. On arriving at the island Mr.. j. M.
Todd and Mr.. II. N. Haley chose a team for
game of foot ball. After much kicking
Charlie Haskell declared the game draw.
much to the disgust of Mr.. Todd, who, after
dinner, got square on the boys by firing one
of his speeches at them. At o'clock Mr..
Ponce served one of his best shore dinners.
After dinner cigars were lighted and all re-
tired to the private dining room Of the new
hotel, where Mr.. Fred Hartwell and Elmer
Hurd played selections on the harmonica
Messrs. Charles Haskell, II. N. Haley and
j. p. Welch sang songs. All present de-
clared their intention of repeating the field
day in 1890. The BARRIERS very much regret
ted that two of the hostels refused TO close
their shops and join in making the picnic a
general holiday for all the BARRIERS in the
city. The dinner served by Proprietor Ponce
was delicious one, and gave great satisfac-
tion. Many who were present returned on
the early boat, but some went to Peaks Isl
and and attended the opera at the Green
wood Garden opera house in the evening.
