LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
statuary for the state Capitol.

EDS. RECORD UNION: There is a bill
pending in the Legislature that provides for
the purchase of statuary to be placed in the
inches of the rotunda of the State Capitol
on the first floor 1t was introduced in the
Senate by Mr.. Moffitt and in the Assembly
by DIR. Burwell. Favorable consideration
in committee, and on the floor of both
houses has advanced it to a leading place
on the file but there is danger that 1t may
not be finally considered on its merits,
owing to the pressure for advancement of
pet measures in the closing days of ses-
sion. 1t is eminently proper that bill of
this kind should speedily become law.
1t is source of regret to thousands of Cali
fornians who visit the Capital, that the
inches yet remain empty. II is not credit
able to the State, which claims to offer to
artists SO many advantages of residence. 1t
is fact susceptible of proof, that millions
of dollars have been expended by our peo-
pie in public schools, private academies
and schools of design TO develop an appre-
citation of the beautiful and refined in
painting and statuary, and yet the State
hesitates in spending dollar to crafty the
taste so cultivated. The empty inches in
the rotunda of the Capitol offend the eye.
The appropriation of $4,000 asked for is
not large, and cannot consistently be de-
MED or deferred on the score of economy
by Legislature which readily votes $780,
GOO to create two more asylumns for the
demented. The passage of this bill might
be fairly regarded as doing something for
the pleasure of well-balanced minds. Gov
ernors Booth, Irwin, Pacheco, Perkins and
Bartlett were all in favor of adjoining the
interior of the Capitol in harmony with
the architectural design but something al
ways happened to cause delay until the
next session." Governor Waterman
doubtless entertains the views which his
predecessors expressed.
The bill confides the disbursement of the
money to the Capitol Commissioners, and
that the sum voted will be intelligently and
honestly expended goes without saying.
The Legislature will do credit to itself and
the State by passing the bill. 1t is time
that the State Capitol should be completed.

a Sacramento Patent.

Edward r. Robinson, Sacramento boy,
has achieved success, insomuch that he
has secured patent for something that
perhaps will make him competency.
Ed" as he is Familiarity called, has for
years had charge of the billiard tables at
the Golden Eagle Hotel. Pool has for a
few years past been taking the place of
billiards. 1t is a game where fifteen red
balls are put upon table of six pockets;
and the person getting the most balls win
ming the game. His patent consists of a
fifteen-bal pool register and advertiser.
The balls as fast as they are pocketed, are
marked on the advertiser Itconsisss OF an
ordinary frame with ten slides, marked
from l to 10. The slides expose balls,
similar to those on the table, and no mis-
takes can be made. One.half of the frame
is for advertising, and on the whole il is an
ingenious and valuable invention

Purring Melancholy.

A druggist recently received a visit
from lantern.jawed, hollow-eyed man,
who asked, in cadaverous tones, if he
could give him any remedy that would
drive away nightmare-like care that
was praying upon his health. The man
of drugs nodded, and compounded mix
ture of quinine, wormwood, rhubarb and
epson salts, with a dash of castor oil, and
offered it to the despairing patient, who
alphabetically gulped it down. History
