The CARPENTER WORK.

In this connection. attention is called to
the TACT that for years past our principal
contractors have been obliged 10 compete
with those who, by reason Of having e
larger field for. operation, could conse-
quently strain every poin: toward securing
coveted contract. At present, however,
Sacramento is able 10 meet all competition
in this important branch of trade, for upon
opening the bids, that Of Mr.. Harris, Of
this city, was found 10 be the lowest, and
be was consequently awarded the contract
for doing great portion of the work. Mr..
Harris has been prominently identified
with the construction OF many of our
large buildings, and is recognized as
thorough mechanic and one likely to be
an important factor in future proposals for
contract work. His work, though not yet
complete, fully indicates that the con-
tractor has been faithful in performance of
his duties. and presents to public scrutiny
q magnificent job. Mr.. Harris has his

sideration.

Stockton baseball enthusiasts who are

age the club last season will probably con-
troll the Stocktons during next season.
1t is pretty well settled that Jack Fair.
hurst will be one of the catchers for the
Stocktons and Fudger will be engaged as
pitcher. Harper has a chance to 90 East
and seems to be anxious TO play with the
Milwaukee Club. He wants 81 500 for the
season of eight months il Stockton, but
viii not be offered that amount.
Chsse the ''phenom" pitcher of the tail
end Of last season, has got bis figures high
He was asked few days ago if he was
willing to sign with the Stocktons and
gave an affirmative answer. 1t was be-
lieyed he would be ready to sign for $50
or $50 a month, but when asked to state
his terms he said 500 The Director was
psralyzed and said good day. to the
young man.
Mike DePangher is a fixture with the
Slocktons, and will probably be selected
for acting manager to carry out the instruc-
tons of the Directors.

rectors yesterday, that the Stocktons will
be managed next season by Stoektonian

how extremely sensitive are milk and
cream to all smells in the atmosphere.
The slightest bad oder il sure to be
taken up and reported. In the last
Annual Report OF the Ontario Agri
cultural and Experimental Union is
an interesting story bearing u1on this
point. ...
There were two. brothers. both sx.
tsnsive butter makers and exporters;
one was an habitual smoker, while
the other did not use tobacco in any
form.
They both sold their butter through
an agent on foreign market, and the
one who did not smoke always re-
ceived q higher price for his butter
than the other. No being able in any
other way to find out why this dis
tinction should be made, they at last
resolved upon the experiment OF re-.
versing the labels on the packages.
In due time letter was received
from the agent stating the strange
fact OF very 6isaereeable taste or
flavor in The butter belonging to
the one brother, a taste which had
never been known before, while the
others, always with the bad Taste be.
fore, was now pure and sweet, and
worth two and one.half cents more
than his bruther's on that account.
Tha brother was now convinced
that it was the odor OF the tobacco
which had invaded the butter and in,
jured it's value.

The Worlds Fair Committee De-
cldes In Favor OF 1892.

There was another lively meeting
OF the worlds fair committee on the
17th inst. Messrs. Frank (Missouci)
and Bowden (VIrginia) were absent
from the city, and Mr.. Wilson was en-.
gagged IN the ballotIbox investigation.
As consequence, Chicago temporari.
ly lost two members favorable to her,
and the committee was tied up 80 as
to be unable to achieve any positive
progress. The fifth section OF the bill
was the first matter under discussion.
To this section Mr.. Belden, of New
York, last Saturday offered an amend
ment requiring a positive guarantee
by the citizens OF Chicago OF q ten
miliion-dollar fund. Ii soon became
evident that the committee was
equally divided on this proposition, so
it was passed over for q time. When
section 8 (which leaves blank the date
for holding the fair) was reached Chair
man Gambler proposed to fill IN the
blanks SO rs to provide for the dedics.
tion anu celebration Oct. ~, 1892, and
Tor the holding of the fair in 1898.
The Chicago members had all along
declared that they were prepared TO
accept the views OF the COMMITTEES on
this point, although personally they
felt that, Ia justice to the foreign ex-
hibitors and in view OF the delay on
the part OF congress in acting on the
subject, ii would ba better to hold the
iair In 1898. Theseiore when the
question was put on Mr.. Candler's
motion they refrained from voting and
the chairman found himself alone in
IN voting Tor the motion. and it was
lost. Thereupon the dates were filed
in so as to require the fair to be open
cd April 80. 1892, and closed Oct. 90
OF the same year. The entire bill was
then read over and agreed upon, ex.
cepting section 5. which will be acted
upon at another meeting when it is
hoped q full attendance will be had.
It is probable that II the Chicago men
go there in force, they will make
ar effort TO reverse the action fixing
the date for holding the fair.
