FATHER BoUCHARD.
A Tribute to the Memory of the Devo,
ana Eloquent Missionary.

A Tribute to the Memory of the Devout
and Eloquent Missionary.
Prior to the sermon yesterday in The
Catholic Cathedral, Rev. Father Grace paid
an eloquent tribute to the memory of Rev.
Father Bouchard, the veteran missionary,
whose death occurred last Friday. The
speaker referred TO the deceased as having
been the ablest missionary ON the Pacific
coast BY his sweetness of character, COM
bined with his eloquepce and convincing
powers, he converted hundreds, and his
name was familiar to almost every iDhabi-
tant, from the icy regions in the north to
the torrid regions of the south, and from
the Sierra Nevada to the ocean.
For the last thirty years of bis life be
had devoted bis labors to missions on this
coast, and it was with Bishop Manogue's
most ardent wish that the deceased Father
preached the sermons at the laying of the
corner stone and the dedication ceremonies
of the Cathedral of the Holy Sacrament in
this city. The prayers of The congregation
were asked for the repose of his soul.

TOO MUCH MORPHINE.
A Female "Fiend' who Seems to Have
an Affection for the River.

A Female offend" who Seems to Have
an Affection for the River.
Every few days certain woman of the
town, known as Cora" works herself into
tit of the blues, aided, it is said, by liberal
doses Of morphine, and while in this con-
dition invariably makes break for the
river, as if to drown herself Several times
parties have found her in the vicinity of
the Yolo bridge, acting strangely, and
taken her to her stopping place.
Her last act of this kind was on Friday
night, but, as usual, the cold river did not
receive her in its embrace, owing, perhaps,
to the timely appearance of q gentleman on
the scene. The woman declares that she
will yet find relief from her troubles in the
swiftly-fowipg river. There is little doubt
but that these spells are due chiefly to peri
odicsl attacks upon the opium pipe.

DIFFICULTIES of Railroading.

The quantity of snow on the railroad in
the vicinity of Truckee is said to be simply
incalculable. For the past month the rail-
road company has had men constantly en-
ployed shoveling snow, and the track is
lined with men from Truckee to Blue Can
yon, distance of forty miles. There are
$50 men employed on this side of the sum-
nit, and twice as many on the other side
The Truckee yards are full of men keeping
the side tracks clear of snow. Each of
these men receives So day and board,
entailing an enormous outlay by the COM
DanY.

THE NEW PosTOFFICE.

Congressman Clunie Writes Postmaster

There is a fair prospect of Sacramento
having Government building that will be
an ornament to the city, and at the same
time fulfill the requirements of the various

The building originally designed was found,
on careful examination of the plans by
Postmaster Stephens, to be inadequate to

Arrested on suspicion.

A healthy beggsr," who gives his name
as G. w. Champion, was yesterday taken
into custody by officer Coffey, inssmuch as
he answers TO some extent the description
given by Fred Gray of the man whom he
claimed shot MIN the other day.
Champion had no weapon of any kind
on him when searched, and seems to be q
harmless sort of creature. He is evidently
a man who has seen better days, and has
none of the characteristics OF thug or
man-slaver.

HOUSE OF REPREsENTATIvEs, U. s.,


Hon. R. D. Stephens, Sacramento CAL DEAR
SIR: l received your letter in relation TO the
Postoffice matters at Sacramento. Some time
previous to getting 1t Senator Hearst and l
called upon the Supervising Architect and we
convinced him that the building should be en-
lsrged, and better material should be used than
contemplated in the plans and specifications
shown us. We also talked to Congressman Nc
Kenna who had concluded TO introduce bill
asking for an increase of $50 coo. After our talk
he concluded to introduce copy of the bill in
troduced by Senator Hearst in the Senate asking
for an increase OF SIS 900, which with the sum
already appropriated will, in our judgment, be
enough to complete the building. Both SEN
ators Hearst and Stanford have said that they
would push the bill through the Senate as
speedily Es possible. While they are working
in the Senate, we will not be idle in the House.
l have just succeeded in having myself placed
upon the Committee on Public Buildings and
Grounds, which will give me an opportunity to
greatly assist in the passage of the just appro-
priations to enable us to build public buildings
in California that the public service requires.
l realize the benefit of all the suggestions con-
tanned in your letter, and we stated to the Su-
pervising Architect that we had talk with you
in Sacramento and that you then informed us
that the building as proposed was Totally mad
equate for the purpose intended. l gave to
Congressman McKenna a copy of the Hearst
bill, and it will be before my committee after

CHURCH WORK IN MEXICO.
The position of the Protestant Episcopal church
toward the work in Mexico Is indicated by the
following statement Of the presiding bishop and
Others recently published:
I'VE. the undersigned, hereby express our ear
nest and decided conviction that those who de-
sire to promote any effective work for reform In
Mexico should send their contributions to William
G. Doulton, Esq, No 202 Madison avenue, New
York
I'VE are compelled to believe that funds con-
tributed through other channels will be ineffec-
tive, to say nothing more.

W c. DoANE, Bishop of Albany.

Bishop II C. Riley is therefore wholly unau-
thorized to solicit subscriptions.
This brings up the question as to whether
the independence of the Mexican church is
established, or only exists in the imaginations
of the missionary bishop and his churchmen.

further conlplimented him, by pronounce
ing him the best young stallion in any
family of horses in America; and this
horse was a grandson of Henry Clay,
and was the sire of Corning's Harry Clay
and Clay Pilot.
Mr.. Charles w. Mitchell lived to see
his predictions verified; for this unpre-
cedented auction sale of 46 little colts
was wired all over our land, also cabled
to Great Britain and the continent.
Besides this financial success Of MIR.
Rose from breeding to IA Clay sire, and
continuing to do so in the one family,
the time records show that the blood of
Henry Clay, despite prejudice, has won.
Through Mitchell's or Neave's Clay we
had Corning's Harry Clay and Clay Pr
lot; and through them and their blood,
Mr.. Rose has become a phenomenal sue
cess, and Gov. Stanford has had greatest
success from same blood.
Then, again, when honest investigation
has been made into blood cause for phe-
nomenal trotting speed, although cover
ed by deceptive names and binding num-
bers, that one blood of the Arab has been
the cause, which in Clay Pilot and Nor
gan is legitimately recognized by name
and in blood.
In 1853, Mitchell's Clay was badly in
jured for future trotting speed. He had
made two seasons in Orange county, get
ting much valuable stock, one of which
was Savers or Corning's Harry Clay.
Mr.. Goodwin sold him to Alexander
Neave of Glendale, Ohio, from which
date he was known as Neave's Clay. His
get were splendid coachers, also very fast
ROAD horses, and were in constant de-
mand.
Trotting records were of no moment.
The thing was not to permit any man to
know how fast horse could trot. All
trots were betting machines made on the
moment. Training and fitting was I'M
known. Heavy sulkeys, rough tracks,
coarse heavy shoes, with toe and heel
calks and hand made nails, were what we
had.
Some of the get by Neaves Clay which
are recorded | will give, but not one was
a measure. Had these horses the advan-
tages of today, they would haye been
down in the teens:

tan Brothers, of Chicago, Of whom Brother
Atchison, portrayed in this cut, is one of the
leading spirits.
The order was founded in the Seventeenth
century by Frere De La Sale, the presiding
priest Of the abbey Of Rheims, one Of the
most ancient and most revered monastic in
situations of France. Here it was that kings
from time immemorial celebrated their ac-
cession to the throne Here De La Sale, the
curate Of this rich and famous parish, sud
denly in 1850 sold out his ordinance, gave the
proceeds to charity and established the Chris
tian brotherhood, that survives in highly
developed form TO this day
De La Sales idea was solely to found a
college Of teachers-a school for the thorough
education of young men as teachers The
Christian Brothers are thus the head Of the
oldest normal school in the world Since De
La Sale died the order which he organized
and set in action has expanded and estab-
lished itself in every Christian country on
the globe.

BISHOP RILEY'S CHURCH.
II Was Started as the Protestant Episco-
pal Church In Mexico.

In 1868 the Rev. Fl. Chauncey Riley, q
clergyman of the Episcopal church, went to
Mexico to engage in missionary work. He
founded branch called the church Of Jesus,
and was finally made bishop in recognition
of the work he had accomplished as a mis-
sionary The bishop became a friend Of
Juarez, and when the president confscated
the property of the Jesuit order, re present.
ed Riley with fine church in the City Of
Mexico, and the bishop afterwards purchased
the convent of San Francisco the finest
building there next to the capitol. This pur-
chase was made with the assistance of New
Workers prominent in religious missionary
work. The Episcopal church of the United
States gave that of Mexico an allowance Of
$4,000 year; the mission prospered, and
the Mexican church now numbers forty con-
gregations.
Several years ago the Mexican church be-
came independent and its income from the

But for Corning's Harry Clay, Charles
b ickman would not have been success
full. There would have been no Green
Mountain Maid, Dexter, Electioneer, or
St. julien. But for Clay Pilot there would
not have been a Sable Wilkes, Stamboul,
or Bell Boy. But for the Arab bred An
drew jackson. there would have been no
Henry Clay, to be the one great progen-
itor of trotting speed in the American
horse.
A gentleman wrote me that Glen Flora
Clay, by Clay Pilot, was getter in Eu-
rope of the best and fastest of colts, add
ing "that if the dam of Clay Pilot was a
catch fly Glen Flora became all the
more credit to the Arab blood of Clay"
OF all the get by Corning's Harry Clay
there is none to equal Shawmut: and of
all the get by Clay Pilot, his last colt,
Young Clay Pilot will perpetuate Charles
W. Mitchell's predictions regarding the
blood of his colt, Cassius NJ. Clay, Jr.
Both Shawmut and Young Clay Pilot
are magnificent horses, and are beauti
fully bred in their dams. Both stand
over IL hand high. Shawmut is trot-
ter, and Young Clay Pilot from his
sire's dam, is a PAGER. Both are grand
sons of Mitchell's or Neave's Cassius NJ
Clay Jr. A union of the bloob of these
two stations will give us family of
horses unequalled as coach, road or trot-
ting horses, with the highest rates of
trotting speed. If the get needs
strengthening in blood, nothing will do
it without mongreization, except its pri-
mitive blood cause, the Arab.
When men talk of crosses, let them
ask themselves if they would cross a
pure pointer with bull dog; or a pure
game cock with shanghai or thorough
bred race horse with Cleveland bay; or
in cattle, would cross pure Jersey with
Texas mongrel,or "A grade Holstein, or
even pure Holstein?
Men will buy thoroughbred running or
draft horses upon their blood and brcod-
ing; or will buy cattle, sheep, swine,
but when it comes to trotting horses, it is
"show me his record which he must
have been trained to at a greater expense
often, than lie will sell for.
Breeders of all domestic animals Eek
cept the American mongre-bred horse)
know that crosses means destruction of
a fixed type. The breeders of the so
called American trotting horse are con
stantly seeking crosses; mongrel al
ready crossed out of any one type Of
blood, they cross with some other horse
equally crossed in another way.
Envy and jealousy predominant. Fals'
pedigrees are made; others are disputed
until horse breeding is not pleasant, bu
is infatuating. If horse proves through
, circumstances popular getter, his pedi
, gree is disputed.
