A River Rancher Who Doesn't Care
About Freight Rates.
There came down the river yesterday a
craft that looked like cross between a
steamboat and a header-wagon. 1t was
about so feet long. and was constructed OF
rough, implanted boards The model was
of the scow order, and the hurricane"
deck was below the water line.
The rail vas an ordinary farm fence, aud
rather rough one at that. The engine
was an old thrashing machine steam motor.
which had evidently done many years
service on some Colusa county ranch. 1t

steamer where il pulled and blow ed in its
struggles to keep the primitiye-lookips
paddle wheel in motion.
flowed behind this eating palace was a
scow, similarly constructed, but rougher in
appearance, if possible. 1t was loaded
with hay and watermelons.
The crew consisted of the Captain (who
managed the steamer) and q man who held
and manipulated the long pole-rudder of
the hay scow. They sailed down past the
city, deposited their load of truck" some
where on the levee, and returned up the
river for another load.
The owner is probably some river
rancher who wanted to get his crops to
market at nominal expense, and he
seems to have hit upon successful plan
He is also prepared for high water in the
winter. for when the floods coma he can
load his family and other ranch property
upon his steamer and Sow and strike out
across the tule for high ground.
After he markets his crop he will prob
ably put coat of paint on his steamboat

Pleasant Affair at the First Christian
Church Last Evening.
A thoroughly pleased audience was that
at the social of the Christian Church last
night. The following musical and literary

every number, in the main aldience-room
of the church: Piano solo, Miss vina Bar.

Last Words" the widow being formerly
Miss Bell Stargell.
At the close of the programme the audi

below. There were found on exhibition
the following collection of statues and
paintings, most charmingly prepared by
Mrs. E. c. Hart and her sisters. Misses
Callie and Flora Vivian: Bisque statue,

Some very pleasing tableaux followed,
in one of which little Vivian Hart, lad
about eight years of age, brought down the
house by singing, in dilapidated costume
and 9uavering voice, the song of an old
man of eighty-four, who was "just as
young as he used to be"

WORLDS FAIR CONVENTION.
A Liberal Response from Those Entitled
to Take Part.

The various commercial bodies and
public associations throughout the State
which are entitled to representation in The
Worlds Fair Convention to be held in San
Francisco on September 11th, are respond
ing freely to the invitation to take part in
the same. Notice of the appointment of
the following additional delegates has been
received by Secretary Haynes
Geographical Society of the Pacific, San
Observation-Disclosures George Davidson, st.
G. Mitchell Grant. Administrations
Slevin, Ii D., and John Partridge.

Mrs. E. P. Colgan and Miss Nellie Hoag.
Delos Arnold, President of the Pasadena
Academy Of Sciences, in a communication
desires to know whether any arrangements
have been made for reduced rates of fare
for delegates to the convention. On this
subject Secretary Haynes had already had
correspondence with the Southern Pacific
Company, and was offered a reduction of
one-third from the regular rates. The
matter will be taken up at meeting of the
Executive Committee TO be held shortly.
A party in Chicago makes the suggestion
that delegate from Chicago be present at
the San Francisco Convention, but as the
party app ears to have no official position.
the letter will likely remain unanswered.

BLOOD WILL TELL.

Alaska, the Son of the Famous Elec-
tioneer, Coming to the Front.
Among the stations at the Rancho del
Paso is Alaska, by Electioneer, his dam
being by George NJ. Pstchen. Alaska was
always regarded as very promising young
horse, but-until he fell into the hands of
his present trainer, John Williams-his
performances had not been quite satisfac-
tory. Still, owing to his excellent breeding,
Mr.. Williams has not hesitated to include
Alaska's offspring in his annual sales of
trotting- bred colts in New York, although
the colts have sold at low figures, say from
$50 TO $500 each.
But it is not likely that anybody will get
any more Alaska colts at that price, if the
story that is told of his present form be
true. 1t is said that he yesterday trotted a
full mile over the private track at Mr..
Higgins ranch in 2.20, and without max
ing skip.
In the hands of Mr.. Williams the horse
will doubtless continue to improve, and
even this year may show better than that
mark.

BETTER LATE THAN NEVER.
People Must Trim Their Trees, or P
for Having ii Done.

People Must Trim Their Trees, or Pay
for Having it Done.
Street Commissioner Mclaughlin has
had printed and distributed throughout
the city the following notice:
you are hereby notified to have the
trees in front of your property trimmed so
as not to obstruct the light from the street
and high enough to allow carriages to pass
under without interference, and to have
the said work done by the LIST day Of
September, 1890. If not done at said date,
will proceed to do the same at expense Of
property owners
This is matter that the Street Commits
sioner should push vigorously Property
owners should have enough pride them
selves to prompt them to trim their shade
trees and keep them looking nicely, but if
they haven't sufficient enterprise and taste
in that direction they should be made to
pay the expense of having the work done
for them.
There are many blocks in the city whose
trees hang so low over the streets that
vehicles cannot pass under the branches
while pedestrians on the sidewalks have
their hats brushed of their heads and their
faces scratched by the low-hanging
branches of trees.

his deed by serving the State for time.
