YESTERDAYS ELECTRIC STORM.

Hail and Rain Descend in Sales.--future
der and ishtning.
About 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon the
sky became suddenly obscured by black.
threatening clouds, while a peculiar and
ominous calm pervaded the atmosphere for
some time. Everybody realized that a
storm was brewing, and about half-past 2
o'clock the clouds directly over the city
seemed to burst, for heavy rainfall set in,
which soon turned to hail. The storm
lasted for about half-hour. during which
there were frequent sharp flashes of light
ming and terrific peals of thunder. Some of
the hail-stones that fell were gathered by a
druggist and weighed, the average being
nine grains. The stonls were of uniform
size and shape, and about as large as peas
The storm seemed to come from the
southwest, and passed in the direction of
the Sierra Nevada, where it was very Sc
we're. In this city the precipitation was 20
of an inch. The temperature fell during
the passage of the hail.storm from 600 to
4S0, and rose to 500 at P. NJ. when the
storm ceased.
The barometer at o'clock last evening
was rising, and stood at % 80 inches here
and at Red Bluff.
1t is feared that the hail-storm has had a
disastrous effect ON fruit trees, Judging
from the havoc done in the city gardens BY
knocking off the young fruit.
At o'clock last evening another black
pail spread rapidly over the sky, until the
latter was completely obscured, and shortly
afterward rain commenced to fall. At
midnight it was still coming down, but not
heavily.

They Succeed in Getting Out of a State
Prison Case.
The examination of Tom Roddy and his
companion, Mahoney, came off in the
Police Court yesterday, the charge being
that of robbery, preferred by John Shan
non. The latter swore that the defendants
grabbed him as he was stepping out of a
saloon on Sixth street about three weeks
ago, and after running him up the alley
quite a distance knocked him down and
robbed him of his gold watch and chain
and about SIS in money. He positively
identified the defendants as being his as
sailants. The affair occurred about mid
night.
Jud c. Brusie appeared as counsel for
the prisoners and Shannon was subjected
to cross-examination which lasted about
an hour. Testimony was afterward intro
duced on the part of the defense tending to
show that the prisoners were at other
places at the time of the assault on Shan
non.
Judge Buckley discharged the defend
ants, the City Attorney agreeing that the
testimony on the part of the prosecution
was not strong enough to warrant the
holding of the men.

no GAME HERE YESTERDAY.
There was no ball game yesterday, owing
to the storm, which made the diamond and
field sloppy and full of puddles. The
home and San Francisco clubs were on
hand and INDUCED in some practice work
before the shower. About 100 people went
out in the street cars, and after waiting
patiently for over half an hour, expecting
TO see the clouds clear away, they left for
home again. The grounds would have
been in excellent condition but for the I'M
expected fall of hail and rain at o'clock.
THE GAMES TO-DAY.
To-day the Sacramentos leave for San
francisco to play the Oaklands there. If
the weather should be fine the papers pre-.
dict larger crowd in attendance than
ever before witnessed game at Haight-
street grounds. Many of the "cranks,' of
TINS city will go down this morning.
The San Franchises and Stocktons are
scheduled to play ball at the latter place
this afternoon. There was some talk of
transferring the game to this city, as the
diamond here can be put in condition more
speedily than the one in Stockton. There
was no definite decision in the matter,
however.
BOWMAN is SICK.
Bowman is troubled with pains in the
head, and says that at times he can hardly

OF the fourth place, but it will be their fault
now ii they dom keep out of it.

OFF HIS BASE.

Supervisor Snider, of Yolo, Makes an
Unwarranted Statement.
There was published in these columns
yesterday letter addressed by Supervisor
T. c. Snider, of Yolo, to the Health Officer
of San Francisco, in relation to having a
leper sent from Yolo to the San Francisco
pest-house, in which he said: "We will
pay all expenses and must get rid of him.
We do not like to do as Sacramento has
done with her lepers-take them to San
Francisco and turn them loose on the pub
lie streets"
A RECORD UNION reporter called on San
itary Inspector Starr and questioned him in
relation to the above. Mr.. Starr said the
statement made by Tom Snider was not
true, and that the Chinese leper whom he
took to San Francisco from this city was
not turned loose when he reached the me-
tropolis.
Il took him right up to the City Hall, to
the Health Officer" said Mr.. Starr. land
he took charge of him. The leper is now
probably in China

RIvZR IMPROVEMENT.

Matters Likely to be Considered When
the Convention Meets.
At the session of the River Convention,
soon to be called in this city, it is proposed
to take the necessary steps to frame law
looking to the permanent control by a
State Commission of the Sacramento river
and its tributaries.
THE delegation that went to Washington
to get Government aid for the river learned
that any permanent and systematic plan of
controlling the river must be arranged and
carried out by the State" remarked gen.
tleman who was delegate from San Fran
cisco at the last session of the convention,
to Bulletin reporter. For q reason that
shrewd observers may readily judge, Gov
eminent engineers are not enthusiastic over
maintaining navigation on the Sacramento,
and for the same reason the sentiment of
our delegation in Congress is divided on
this subject.
1.-The appropriation now before Congress
in the river and hafbor bill provides only
$50, 900 for the Sacramento and S75, 900 for
the San joaquin. The delegation that
went from here to Washington saw that
the plan to have Government Commission
to control the river, as the Mississippi is
controlled, could not be carried out. The
fact is, and figures show it, that the Gov
eminent thus far has spent only about ST.
on the Sacramento and San Joaquin rivers
to every $40 expended by the State and in
dividuals together.
II think general sentiment should favor
a tax on lands benefited for the purpose of
controlling the Sacramento. The Commits
sion should be chosen by the counties in
terested, and not appointed by the Gov.
ernor. A systematic levee system should
be perfected, extending through the eleven
counties concerned. This system should
consider ~ flood. carrying channels and ~
navigable channels.
The idea to be uppermost in all this
should be, we have an enemy-how may
we best control him and make him useful?'
II should be the duty of the coming Con-
vention to appoint committee to draft
law to be presented to the next Legislature.
Much thought should be devoted to its
formulation. Theaverage legislator should
not be trusted to arrangeit. The systematic
devotion of every dime secured by such
law to the accomplishment of fixed results
will assure much better work than all that
has been done by the Government in the
mast ~

CAUSE OF THE DELAY.
Why the Public Building Bill Bias n
Yet Been Signed.

Why the Public Building Bill Bias Not
Yet Been Signed.
1t is now many weeks since the Sacra-
mento Postoffice appropriation bill passed
both Houses of Congress, and considerable
uneasiness has been felt by citizens at the
delay in the approval of the bill and the
commencement of work on the building.
The cause is explained by dispatch from
Washington, printed this morning, which
stated that the Senate yesterday concurred
in the House amendment to the bill The
amendment simply was to strike out the
appropriation clause in the bill. 1t will
now go to the President for his approval.
As the bill passed the Senate, il directly
appropriated $500 900 for the building. but
Mr.. McKenna found that the only way in
which to get the bill up before the House
and pass it was to consent to having the
appropriation clause stricken out, which
sent the measure back to the Senate. The
bill, however, provides that the cost shall
be limited to that sum, which is practically
the same thing. This course was safe
enough, as the sum of $4,000 had already
beer appropriated and is now available
less the amount of the cost of the site.
The bill will now be signed, and there
seems to be no reason why work should
not soon be commenced on the building.

to be almost paralyzed with fear, and

Pure Olive OF

Fred. Birdsall, who always has q good
word for Placer county and its productions
has laid on our table sample of fine olive
oil put up in very attractive form by
Mrs. Emily Robinson of Auburn. The
olives are grown on her farm there-(the
old Gould place.. The oil is of beautiful
golden color. and there is no need to call
for the foreign article with samples like
this manufactured at our doors. Mrs.
Robinson's crop was lessened somewhat by
an army of robins swooping down from
the higher attitudes during q furry of
snow, but the trees are thrifty and require
little care. We have tasted the oil and find
it equal to any in the market.
