Homeless Child.

Katie Pilgrim" and Her Man Kelly-A
Homeless Child.
Katie Pilgrim" the woman who was ar
rested for being drunk and appearing upon
the street in half.clothed condition, was
fined IS in the Police Court yesterday. She
stated that she became excited because a
party tried 10 sell her furniture, and ran
out of her house clad only in basque.
She said her husband was living in San
Francisco.
City Attorney Hart stated that he had
been informed by respectable citizen that
little girl ten years of age and of unusual
brightness was living with the Pilgrim
woman, and often times complained that
she was hungry. He had also learned
that the girl was sent out for beer
and whisky on numerous occasions. He
asked the woman if this was a fact, and she
replied that it was not, and that the girl
was relation of Kelly, the man who lived
with her, and the daughter Of a woman
named josephine Kelly, who was badly
beaten on L street few nights ago, and
who refused to tell the officers who COM
mitted the assault. The woman further
stated that the mother of the child had
taken it away on Thursday night, and she
didn't know where either of them were a.
present.
1t is probable that an effort viii be made
on the part of the police officials to obtain
a respectable home for the little girl.

ADJUSTMENTS.

The Aronson New York Casino Opera
Troupe presented at the Metropolitan
Theater last evening, Milloecker's charm
ing comic opera The Black Hussar." 1t
had by no means so large an audience as
the merit of the performance deserved. 1t
is an opera bristling with witticisms, full
of chaste humor, and rich in beautiful airs
and fine choruses. The patriotic invoca-
ton in the first act, led by Mr.. Wilson, in
fne voice and spirit, the quartet that
closes the same act, the beautiful duo by
Misses Lamont and Hanley, the
choruses of the Black Hussars in
same act, the love song by Miss La
mont in the third act, and the "Wacht am
Rhine, by the entire company, in the
third act, are given with 6ne effect, and
are leading vocal features. The low COM
edy action by Z. Z. Graham, Louis De
LANCE and Genevieve Reynolds was ad.
Inirably sustained throughout the opera.
The opera has all that commingling OF
charming melodies, ludicrous situations,
strong choruses, topical songs and dra-
matte action that makes comic opera sue.

An Annual Outing.

From boyhood to the present time
have made it practice each year to have
at least one good fishing excursion, and
eften more than one when time and cir
cumstances would permit; sometimes for
only one day, at others two, three or more,
camping out during the time; and have
always considered it to be the hight Of
enjoyment. OF course, every angler likes
TO have good luck in getting well-flled
creel or big string of fish, and always feels
proud of such a catch; yet we all know,
aside from that, there is certain pleasure
in listening to the murmuring of the
stream, the singing of birds or the signing
of the winds through the forest, besides
enjoying the beauty Of the landscape-al
these together form picture for the mind
TO dwell upon for weeks, months and years
afterward and what one of her children
in the long run, ever became much poorer
in pocket or in health, or was ever made
worse in morals by communing with our
great Mother Nature FOREST and Stream

contains, and as it would be out of place TO

OF the prettiest and best law libraries in the

arranged between the windows. and re-

would not be much use in so doing, Mr..

that time, says there are always from
twenty to thirty visitors in the evening,
and that. on the night the Raymond &
W hltcomb excursionists stopped over in

Mr.. Leake states that many persons are
not aware of the fact that they are allowed
TO read any of the books in The Library.
Some of them look at the volumes through
the glass windows and then timidIy ask if
they might be allowed to examine a Ger.
tain one. There are enough clerks in the
Library to wait upon all who come, and
visitors are entitled to the privilege of read

en- route from New Orleans to Marysv1lle.
and slipped and fell while in the act Of
alighting from the train at Lathrop, with
the result stated.
Mr.. Johns is 70 years old, and was one OF
the earliest settlers of Sacramento. About
1852 he was partner of Wrinkle in the Pio-
neer Bakery on ] street. j. z. Hardenburgh
was Mayor of this city when be went away.
and one of his first inquiries last evening
was about the latter, of whose death he
was not aware. The old gentleman was as
comfortable last night as could be ex.
pected, but owing to his age and the Sc.
verify OF his injury it will be long time
before he can expect to get out again. He
has some money with him, however, and
beside will find old friends here. 1t is be-
lieved he will insist on resuming his Jour.
ney TO Marysville as soon as possible.
