was put in that article and more, too, if
you wish, and that the whole neighbor-

lots filled with water, all on account of this
place not having its proper drainage; the
rain is allowed to run from the building

and if something is not done soon it will

sickness will soon be the result Now that

WINNING AGAIN.
SACRAMENTO BEATS SAN FRANCISCO
BEFORE a SMALL CROWD.
Lookabaugh Was Hit Hard-OakIand
Wins at the Bay-How
They Stand.

Lookabaugh pitched very poor game
yesterday and really surprised the few
baseball sharps who were present at the
game. About fifty people attended and
half the number were ladies' Deduct
about dozen who came in on passes and
the gate receipts can be easily guessed.
The TWO clubs played the game neyerthe-
less, and it proved to be very dreary eX-
hibition. 1t was not tiresome because OF
bad playing, for the errors were less than
the number in an ordinary match, but the
Sacramentos had matters so much their
own way that there was very little enthu-
siasm manifested by either side or even the
audience. Many good plays were made by
both teams, and it is but fair TO say that
the San Franchises would have made the
contest very interesting for the Senators if
Lookabaugh had pitched even fairly we'll
He seemed to have lost his effectiveness,
and it was very noticeable that he did not
use as many curves as ne usually does.
His speed was very limited and it was the
opinion of several critics present that he is
worked too hard by his club. He fire.
quently pitches two or three times in sue
cession and yesterdays game was the
second time in two days IN which he did
the box work.
The Sacramentos found the ball safely
sixteen times, and among the hits were
three e" triples and one two baggern
Goodenough led in batting, securing four
hits out OF five times 10 the bat. McHale
and Hoffman each hit the ball hard the
latter driving out "two'' and three base"
hit and the former knocking out clean
singles when the bases were occupied by
two and three runners. Hoffman endeav-
ored TO run home on his "three-bagger,"
but Speer touched him out at the plate.
Roberts did good stick work. and Harper
kept up his recent streak of batting by
making two good singles. Godar's drive
to the back fence came near being home
run. Daily and Reitz could not place the
ball safely
The home nine played good field
ing game, and the errors could have
easily been overlooked. Stapleton s guard
ing of first base was the feature of the
game. He stopped balls that were thrown
poorly at him and saved DAILY a couple of
errors. Reitz' work was the usual thing
for him.
Hoffman pitched very easy game and
could probably have started in on another
contest had it been required of him. Nc
Hsles back-stop work was very good.
There could have been no Improvement on
it.
For the San Franciscos Everett did some
brilliant work at short, and assisted in
double play with Vesch. The whole nine
made but four errors in all, and accom-
plished some very neat work at times.
The game resulted in the defeat of the
visitors by a score of II to 2. the details of
which are as follows:

A Rare Opportunity.

It has been quite long time since such
a collection of thoroughbred Holstein
registered cattle were seen as those now
exhibited at the fair by Frank II. Burke,
of Menlo Park. These cattle will be sold
without reserve to the highest bidder. 1t
is not out of place TO state that Mr.. Burke
will still continue in the Holstein business,
and his only motive for selling is in order
TO realize little more cash and diminish
the large number of stock now at his La
Siesta ranch. The cattle in question, as
well as their ancestors, have all been prize
winners at our annual State Fair for several
years past. By q systematic course of
breeding Mr. Burke has been successful in
producing some of the best mich aud
butter cows ever shown on the Pacific
coast. In conclusion, it would not be
amiss TO say that the reputation of the
aforementioned gentleman is too well
and favorably known 70 require any
special commendation at the writer's
hands, suffice it to state that should any
defect or non. breeding be known to exist
in the stock offered at auction, the fact will
be announced before the sale commences.
Remember that the offering will take place
in the cattle ring at the race course imne-
diately after the stock parade on Saturday,
September l3, 1890. Killip & Co., the we'll
known auctioneers, will ottciate.

Sergeant Barwick Dilates Upon the Prev
a1ent Cold Wave.
The Signal Service temperature at A. NJ.
and P. NJ. yesterday was $40 and $50,
with gentle and variable winds and hazy
atmosphere. The highest and lowest on
the roof of the Signal Office was 900 and
53o, while the highest and lowest at the
Pavilion was 920 and 500.
The weather reports yesterday morning
showed quite a cold wave along our fruit
route east, at least portion of it, it having
been 40 below the freezing point at Chey-
enne, which was 2So colder than the pre-
ceding twenty-four hours. Even upon the
Pacific coast cool wave has made itself
felt at Olympia, where the lowest yesterday
morning was 560, or 40 above the freezing
point. This may mean cooler weather for
this valley in the next few days.

AN AMERICAN HELIGoLAND.
How the English Can Prove Their Low
of the United States.

Bermuda, lying in the Atlantic Ocean
only 600 miles from Cape Hatteras and
two days swift steaming from New York,
is one of the most strongly fortified stations
in the British Empire. Besides forts and
batteries, it possesses huge dry dock and
all the costly paraphernalia to fit it for a
rendezvous for fleets. 1t is the boast OF
British officers that those things, aided by
the natural difficulties of access, make
Bermuda impregnable. Why, asks the
Boston Journal, has England expended all
this money on a little, Insignificant group
of islets out in the ocean, hundreds of
miles removed from any other English
possessions of any consequence? Why does
she maintain an English garrison there
and make it a place of resort for her battle
ships? The commercial value of the
islands to Great Britain is inconsiderable; ;
almost all of their trade is with the United
States. There can only be one answer to
this question England maintains her
hold on Bermuda merely as point of
naval and military vantage from which in
an emergency she could menace New
York, the Delaware, Chesapeake Bay,
Charleston and Savannah-the entire east
ern stretch of our American coast. This
very month submarine cable is being
laid to connect Bermuda with Halifax,
under heavy subsidy from the British
Government.
While our own authorities are indiffer-
ent or implicitly relying on our common
origin" and the after-dinner talk about
"Anglo Saxon fraternity" to preserve
friendly relations, England is conducting
affairs in Bermuda as if any day might
bring declaration of war. No other in
depreciation can be put upon the arma-
ment and naval arsenal which England
has for many years maintained upon these
islands than that they are intended to
"hold pistol to the head" of the United
States II England values the friendship
and good will of Germany sufficiently to
surrender Heligoland, one of her own out
posts, ought she not in consistency sun
render Bermuda to us? Such propo-
sition, If properly put to Lord Salisbury,
might afford an admirable chance to test
the sincerity of English professions of con-
sideration for America.

THE DRAINAGE CANAL.
Down River People Protest Against the
Work.

John Miller, of Tyler Island, is in the
city to protest against the proposed work
on the drainage canal. He regards the
work as impracticable; that the geograph-
ical and typographical difficulties are such
that it can never be made success He
holds that if anyone thinks it practicable,
the landowners along the line of the canal
and the city of Sacramento should pay for
it. He claims the river people are already
taxed too high, and while they are willing
to pay their share of taxes for general inn
provements such as bridges, etc, they
were not willing to share in useless expen-
diture OF money for work that will only
benefit certain section of the county. Mr..
Miller says that the down river people will
apply for an Injunction to prevent the
work.
