An Enterprisine Young Firm.

One year ago the firm of Clauss & Kraus
was established for the purpose of carrying
on general butchering business, and that
success has crowned its organization can be
no more truthfully manifested than by a
careful observation of the display they now
place before the public, and which is open
to criticism. Mr.. CLAUS has catered to the
wants of our people for the last twenty
years, and to their interests, so far as the
best meats are concerned. Mr.. Kraus is
not novice, having had practical e1pe-
rience in the business. Both are well and
favorably known, and merit the frst-class
patronage which they are constantly re-
ceiving. The manufacturing department
is very complete. None but the finest
quality of meats are kept constantly on
hand, and saGsages, ETC.. are fresh every
day. 1t will require but one call to con-
vince the most fsstidious that Clauss &
Kraus can supply them with anything
necessary in their line, with the motto,
Good weight and first quality Their
market is called Il street. and located on
the corner of Seventeenth and l streets. :

a AGREEMENTS,

At the Metropolitan Theater, this after
noon and tonight, the Ewing and Heath
Comedy Company will produce cad, the
Tom Boy" with Miss Annie Suits in the
leading role, supported by Wilson Deal
and ten others. In this piece is introduced
mechanical steamboat effect for which
much is claimed. Miss Suits will be re-
membered as filing a leading part in
Daily's Vacation and in Daily's Upside
Down" Company when the Miss Dailys
and the Derious family were in the
troupe. At that time she was entirely sue
cessful here. Wilson Deal is an old Sac
ramentan and a good stock actor. Horace
Ewing is the dramatic director of the
troupe. The company has played the
comedy in San Francisco. we are assured,
with complete success, and had the warm
approval of the public there. The prices
are elsewhere announced, those for the
matinee being very low, and no charge be-
ing made for reserved seats, and reserva-
ton can be made all day.
At the Metropolitan Theater Friday and
Saturday the Hans, the Boatman," Com
pany will appear. 1t has had in San Fran
cisco, and for the matter of that wherever
it has played, remarkable success. The
piece is the production of Clay NJ. Greene,
the author of the Golden Giant" and
many other very successful dramas. 1t
was written for Charles Arnold the lead
ing man of the troupe, who, in the dialect
part of Hans, is said, while entirely origi-
nal. to strongly bring to mind the famous
]. K. Emmett. Mr.. Arnold is supported by
Miss May Gordon, Miss Fredericks, Charles
Foster. Julius Kahn, May Hannah, the re-
markable child actress, and dozen others.
This child is remarkable from the fact
that she never plays her part twice the
same. She never misses her cues, but her
business" on the stage is Just what her
flow of animal spirits directs, and her
nightly remps with the trained st. Der.
nard dog "Nord" are invariably different
from those which preceded them. The
San Francisco Bulletin said of the troupe
and the play that the latter is full of at
tractive features, and that the former is
fully competent. The San Francisco Post
said of the piece that the most fastidious
theatergoer cannot fail to be pleased with
the drama, the action and the singing of
Arnold, and the support given him. The
Alta said, after pleasant remarks, that
while the comedy is light, it contains
strong element of pathos. The piece had
great success and long runs in Australia,
and also in England, running for an en-.
tire year at Terry's and the Strand. Seats
for the Sacramento engagement are now on
sale.
The Art Gallery will remain closed to-
day to give the attaches opportunity to en-
joy the Christmas holidays.
Mr.. Bushnell continues afternoon and
evening to exhibit his troupe of trained
dogs and birds at 815 J street.

THE ELEMENTS.
! Signal Observer Barwick Descants Upon
/ the Wind and Weather.


the Wind and Weather.
The Signal Service reports in this city
show g rising but still low barometer, with
southerly winds and showery weather pre-
vailing. The total precipitation yesterday,
up to P. NJ, was % of an inch, 7.22 inches
for this month, as against A GO inches for
the entire month of December last year.
The total for this season is now 16 39inches,
as against 946 inches up to and including
the 31st day of December of last season.
The windst during Monday night
and Tuesday morning was the severest that
has visited this city since last March, when
there was a severe northwest wind that
reached a maximum velocity of forty
eight miles per hour, as against forty-two
miles for Mondays storm. Since June,
1877, there have been but seven wind
storms passed over this city giving max
imum velocity of forty miles per hour and
over, and the records show them to be as
follows: May, 1873, 40 miles per hour, from
the north; December, 1880, 40 miles per
hour, from the southeast; January, 1886,
Al miles per hour, from the southeast !;
June, 1886, AZ miles per hour, from the
northwest; December, 1887, 40 miles per
~
miles per hour, from the north west De-
cember, 1889, AZ miles per hour, from the
southeast.
Now, this is seven times in eleven years
that a great Wind-storm has prevailed IN
this vicinity, two of those occurring in one
year 1850, therefore we get consolation
from the records that such storms as was
precipitated upon us the other Light may
not be repeated again for a year or more,
which speaks well for the MINDLESS
weather that this country usually has.
The weather at o'clock last evening was
as follows for the Signal Service stations
named: Olympia, southeast, clear and no
rain; Portland, northwest, clear and no
rain; Roseburg, cloudy and no rain; Red
Bluff, southeast and raining.
1t is to be hoped that the rainless and
clcudless weather now prevailing in the
greater portions of the States of Washing
ton and Oregon will soon reach this State
and dry up the street crossings, for the
benefit of the many strange sights that
have been so often seen on our muddy

About o'clock last evening two young

in free Christmas beverages, came tearing
down K street in cart. They turned the

What is ScrofuIa

1t is that impurity in the blood, which, accunu-
1ating in the glands of the neck, produces IN
slightly Jumps or swellings; which causes painful
running sores on the arms, legs, or feet; which
developes ulcers in the eyes, ears, nose, often
causing blindness deafness; which is the origin
of pimples, cancerous growths, or many other
manifestations usually ascribed to " humors."
1t is more formidable enemy than consumption
or cancer alone, for serofula combines the worst
possible features of both. Being the most ancient.
1t is the most general of all diseases affections
for very few persons entirely free from it.
How can it be cured? By taking Hoods Sarsa-
parilla, which, by the cures it has accomplished,
often when other medicines have failed, has
proven itself to be potent and peculiar medicine
for this disease. For all affections of the blood
Hoods Sarsaparilla is unequalled, and some of the
cures it has effected are really wonderful. If you
suffer from scrofula in any of its various forms,
be sure to give Hoods Sarsaparilla trial.

Judge Foster of the Maine Supreme
Court and Herrick G. Davis, that humor-
ous guardian of the mortality Office at
Paris Hill sat down the other day and ex-
changed stories in the presence of the
Diner-out of the Lewiston Journal
Squire Davis had one concerning the
first time that his Honor, Judge Haskell,
sat on the supreme bench. One of the
parties In the case on trial was dull old
man who seemed to be incapable Of an
swering question directly but insisted on
wandering all about the point before COM
ing to it. Tired of his garrulity, Judge
Haskell said to the witness
You should answer the question put to
you, sir, and Tot make SO much superfuous
talk"
The old man looked up Indignantly and
in an injured tone retorted:
''You mind your business, sir! don't
want to be interrupted by outsiders when
I'm giving my testimony under OATH
The court, of course, subsidized and the
witness went on.
Judge Foster said that one of his early
cases was the prosecution of an Oxforp
county man, whom we will call johnson, for
stealing a sheep. johnson either had
great confidence in his own innocence or
in his inherent forensic ability, and defend
ed himself without the aid of an attorney.
At a certain stage of the case the court
intimated to johnson that his procedure
was hardly in order.
Now look here, jedge," said johnson,
Don't you worry about me! You tend to
your end of this case and I'll tend to
mine"
