A Sacramentan Tells of His Trip to the
Far North.
Hon. A. P. Catlin, who returned from a
trip to Alaska few days since, gave a
brief but interest ing account of his Jour
neyings to aSUNDAY UNION reporter yester-
day. He says the steamer conveying him
self and comrades took seventy.odd pas
sengers from Tacoma, w. T., all but half a
dozen of whom were Eastern tourists end
pleasure seekers. The route lay all the
way through the narrow channel separat-
Ing the main land from the larger islands
along the coast, there being but one spot
at the head of Vancouver Island-where
the open sea was seen, and that for but
only thirty miles or so on one side. The
channel is bordered on either side by
high. rough mountains, thickly studded
with pines down to the waters edge. II is
a most interesting and romantic Journey
from start to finish. The steamer stopped
at many settlements on her way, and the
tourists saw much to interest them at all
points.
I'VE went" said Mr. Catlin, Through to
Juneau, which is much farther north than
Sitka. Juneau is town of about 2, 500 in
habitants. We visited two or three of
the larger glaciers in that vicinity, and it
can truthfully be said that no one who has
not seen glacier can form any idea of its
grandeur. All that one may read on the
subject will not give him a correct compre-
tension of one of these moving, flowing,
tumbling mountains of ice.n
What is there at Junea for so many
people to do?a asked the reporter.
Well, there are salmon eanneries. etc;
but the most prominent indusry thereabout

SHOT IN THE ARM.

ing the Coroner a job.

" Butch" yantine Comes Very Near Civ
ing the Coroner job.
About half-past 1 o'clock yesterday
morning, as RECORD UNION reporter was
on his way to his home in the south
eastern portion of the city, and when in
the vicinity of Eleventh and o streets, the
loud report of pistol was heard in the
direction Of r street. The reporter has
tened toward the place. but on crossing the
levee at Eleventh street could discover no
indications of trouble in that neighbor-
hood. He proceeded up the levee, how
ever, and when above Twelfth street, saw
parties apparently leaving a small cabin
over near street, and moving off in the
opposite direction. Soon all was quiet,
and the reporter, supposing that the report
was the result of mere wantonness on the
part of some drunken hoodlum, investi-
gated no further.
Yesterday morning, however, it was
learned that the shot meant business, and
that . Butch " Vantine-who is becoming
obnoxiously prominent in criminal circles,
was the object that the party at the butt
end of the pistol had in view. 1t seems
that John Cation, who lives between
Twelfth and Thirteenth. r and s streets,
has been annoyed by Vantine in the past,
and claims that the latter had ransacked
his house in his absence. Cation was re-
Gently arrested for shooting off his pistol
about there, but made the defense that he
was annoyed by toughs, and only sought
to protect himself and bis property.
In this instance Cation was in bed and
hesrd somebody trying 10 get into bis
cabin. So he turned his gun" loose in
the direction of the door, and somehow
winged Vantine. The shot took effect in
his arm, above the wrist, and Is ssid 10
have caused painful if not serious
wound.
The prospect is that Vantine, if he con-
tinues in his present course, will soon reach
the end of his tether.

DIDN'T PHAZE THEM.

A Saloon-Keeper Wastes Lots of Good
Water on the Salvation Army.
Some weeks ago a detachment of the
Salvation Army of this city left for Placer

Main street, proclaimed salvation was
free" and commenced a vigorous on
slaught on Satan. The Army has since
dwindled down TO one man and woman
but they make lots of noise, and have
caused no little excitement At their first
appearance the hoodlums and small bows
sat upon them, but they were soon
squelched, and the noisy Christians were
allowed TO proceed with their peculiar vie
of war against sin. The small bov had
missed his circus, and gave up his fun re-
luctsntly. He rejoiceth now, for the bust
ness men of the town, particularly the thirty
who keep saloons, are getting very tired OF
the daily and nightly open. air concerts in
front of their places of business They
have gone back on their fight against the
hoOdlum element, and say that of the two
evils they choose the least. They have bow

consent to the holding CT worship in front

heavy stream of water upon the Army.
1t disturbed the latter but little. They
turned their backs TO the saloon keeper,
and dropping upon their knees commenced
praying for him. The latter kept the stream
playing upon the Army, and seeing that
they would rather drown than give an inch
he desisted. AS he put away the hose he said

TEMPEST IN A TEAPOT.
Rivalry Among Our Neighbors waxin

Rivalry Among Our Neighbors Waxine.
Warm.
An amusing little warfare is going on
among several of the northern towns re-
garding their respective climatic advantages
and disadvantages. First, Red Bluff, Chico,
Redding, or Marysville will boldly an
nounce that it, and it alone is the paradise
of the northern citrus belt; that its ther-
mometer is most truthful one and never
allows the temperature to get 100 warm, to
be other than delightfully."- pleasant TO its
inhabitants. Then the other three pick
this up, rend it into fragments, ridicule if
and chew II TO their hearts content, until a
new subject hobs up from another quarter
and detracts them.
The Red Bluff Nelcs recently dilated as
follows:
Fishing and boating on the river are pet
ting to be very fashionable paStimes these
pleasant days. The nights are a little cool vet
lor the purpose, but are enjoyable with over
coats and light shawls'
This looks innocent enough, but, whew
how the others jumped on it A Chico
paper first grabbed it, ridiculed it, referred
to it as corker," and then taking it up
seriously masdcated the item in the follow
ing manner: This statement must sound
very curious to people who live outside of
Red Bluff. During the past summer the
Signal Service reports have placed Red
Bluff as one of the hottest places in the
State, and the heat has been so intense
there through the daytime that on several
occasions people visiting the place have
actually believed that they had died and
were living in Sheol. Now, if the nights
are so extremely cold as to necessitate an
oyercoat, Red Bluff is certainly wonder
full place. A regular Sheol during the day
and a North Pole during the night. Straug-
ers do rot need TO rely upon outsiders TO
show up Red Bluff. Just give the papers
of that town chance, and they will hang
it high and dry of population. and then
not half tell the truth about the extremes"
All the other towns took whack at the
item, too, and some of them are not
through with it yet. So the battle wages.

A CLOUDED BRAIN.

Dennis Murphy Goes Crazy and Makes Il
Lively for Two Policemen.
Yesterday morning telephone message
was received at the police station stating
that there was crazy man on Front street,
near N, wandering about in the San Joa-
quin Company's sheds. Officers Rowland
and Simmons were detailed to look after
the man, and they found him without diff
Guilty. But when it came to arrest him
they found they had job on their hands.
He struggled tiercely while being hand
Cutfed, and officer Rowland in the excite
ment got his own hand toon the lunatics
mouth, and the result was that the latter
sunk his teeth deep into the back of the
officers hand.
The man was brought up to the county
jail, where it was ascertained that his name
was Dennis Murphy. He was examined
by the Commissioners of Lunacy, and or
dered to the Insane Asylum. Deputy
Sheriff Coggswell look him to Stockton

CompIimenting Our Mayor.

The Folsom Telegraph speaks in the fol-
lowing complimentary language of sacra-
mento's Mayor:
"If appearances are any Indication il
looks very much as if Sacramento county
will furnish the next Governor of Califor-
MA and that Eugene Gregory will be the
man. OF late his name has been frequently
spoken OF in connection with that office.
Mr.. Gregory is one of the most successful
business men of Sacramento, and is very
popular with all classes. He is at present
Mayor of Sacramento, and has filled that
position with better satisfaction to the pub
lie than any one ever did before. He is in
every wav qualified for it, and would fill it
with credit. Generous TO fault, honest as
the sun, q gentleman of ability, and popu-
lar with all, Eugene Gregory would be
candidate that would have to be opposed
by man of exceptionally good material
for any show 10 be made against him"

PrincinaI and Teacher.

Attorney General Johnson on yesterday
rendered the following opinion to ]. S.
Murray, Clerk of the Eureka School Dis
trict:
Replying to yours of the 9th inst, have
to say that if your Trustees propose to
make a Principal or Superintendent of one
of your teachers, still, in order that such
person may draw State school money he
or she must be a teacher, whose duties are
defined in Section 1896 of the Political
Code. 1t seems there might be Principal
in such case. The seventh subdivision of
the above section provides that the Princi-
pal might still be teacher, bat charged
with additional duties.

Judging Horses and Cattle.

Says Grim in the Breeder and Sports
man: The State Agricultural Society has
adopted scale of points by which horses
shall be judged; singular to say, it has
omitted that provision in the rule which
has heretofore required cattle to be Judged
by a similar standard. We were under the
impression that there were in this State
more competent judges of horses than of
fine cattle. At least, we know that if we
were going to judge cattle, we should want
some other fellow to measure and weigh
them, and even then to tell US which one
to award the premium to, and yet we are
credibly informed that we would not much
discredit the judges who usually pass on
cattle at our fairs"

in January last was sentenced to eight
years imprisonment in Folsom for roll
ing drunk and relieving him of 81 75.

large number of persons in that city, who
vouch for Green's previous good character,

The latter informed the Kansas City people
how to proceed in the matter, and they,
headed by Green's mother, will now lay
the matter before the Governor.

This Time 1t Was the Dog.

Mr.. and Mrs. Haus live in the neighbor-
hood of Seventh and r streets, and Mr..
and Mrs. Dooley are next door neighbors.
The former keeps dog, and the latter
keeps backyard. The Haus dog invades
the back yard of the Dooley mansion, and
gets pelted out of it. Mr.. Haus sometimes
resents these insults to his canine pet, and
this has caused a war between the two fam-
lilies. 1t has slumbered for some time, but
yesterday it broke out atresh, and assumed
dangerous proportions. There are charges
made of misunderstanding and knife-draw-
ing, and each side has had the other ar
rested. The dog is in blissful ignorance of
the rumpus he has caused.

A HAYSEED VICTORY.
Stockton Holds the OakIands Down in an
Interesting Game.

Interesting Game.
SAN Francisco, July 20th.-Fudger was
again in the box to-day against his former
fellow players, and they could only size
him up for two hits. The Oaklands played
a poor fielding game, most of the runs in
the second inning being due to Hardie's
wild throwing to second base. Huey Smith
was OH first for the Stocktons, Sweeny's
hand being sore from recent spikiug, and
he saved the game tor the Stocktons, cap
turing hit that seemed good for doubles
when men were on bases.
The surprise of the day was Fudger's
batting. Jack Hayes played left for the
Oaklands Smith did not do well at first,
the throwing of Stickney and Whitehead
being too hot for him to handle comfort
ably. Over 1000 people attended the
game. Following is The score:
