NOT NECESSARY.

It is said that the citizens organization
have decided to ask the Board of Trustees
on Monday next to raise 500, 900 to be ex-
pended on the levees this year. It is not
likely that the Trustees will do anything
of the kind, and they will be right in re-
fusing to make any such expenditure.
The RECoRD-UNIoN pointed out only a
few days ago the imperative necessity
for some work on the Front and Y street
levees this year, but $4,000 ought to be
the outside limit of expenditure in this
direction. That sum is amply sufficient
to do all the work necessary to make the
city absolutely safe. Anything above
that amount is not needed. If the Trus-
tees would raise the 100000, and expend
200 on the levees and $4,000 on a
sewage system, they would be acting
wisely and well.
The record-union., 1891-05-28
according to latest returns, is as follows
in the named cities:

Surely tax rate for licenses that will
increase revenue and decrease the num-
munity, since we have more bars in pro-
portion by twice than the great city of
New York, more than eight times as
many in proportion as Boston, and more
than seven times as many in proportion as
the progressive, flourishing city of Mime
apolis. In the face of such facts no man
can reasonably object to policy that will
lessen the number of bars to the square
acre in Sacramento.

HARDWARE.

One of or competitors announces that
they are retiring from business in Sac
ramento, and that in future they will
cOnfne their operations to San Fran
cisco. They also take occasion to solicit
the patrons of Sacramento to send their
hardware business to their San Fran
cisco house.
We take this occasion to say, that in
anticipation of the announcement re-
ferred to, we have ordered a full and
complete stock of GENERAL HARD.
WARE, MILL and MINING SUPPLIES,
IRON, COAL, ETC, so that the trade
which has heretofore favored Sacramento
with its patronage will suffer no incOn-
venience by the withdrawal Of the house
referred to.
We beg to thank our patrons for
their favOrs since We opened business
in Sacramento, and further desire to
say that We are here to stay.

plies: / cannot answer you; not, I assure
you, because I wish to delay; oh, no, but
the sentiment of the people of Canada is
opposed to closed season, and fear to
confront it.
That is the whole question in nut
shell. If, in the face of it, our officials
hesitate any longer to act under the law
and enforce closed season, they will
assume the attitude of poltroons, and the
United States will become the laughing

At the Metropolitan Theater this even

will appear, supported by her own COM
pany, in the farcical comedy Starlight"
Miss Jarbeau has just closed very sue
cessful engagement in San Francisco.
She has several times appeared here and
is a general favorite. "Starlight'' has
been much improved, and new music,
songs, dances and character acts intro
duced. The specialties in starlight"
constitute the chief attractions. They
are many, full of humor and sparkle
with wit. Miss Jarbeau's songs in
French and English, her capital imita-
lions and her dancing are very taking,
and there are few, if any, who are so
original or more successful than she is in
these specialties. She has strong COM
pany in support, with number of comedy
women and speciality actors, whose am
bition and opportunity to make hits she
does not, as do some stars, at all limit.

The experience of Chicago ought to be
worth something to our Trustees. Chi
cago has reduced her saloons by one
fifth; that is, the proportion of saloons to
population; by the same process the reve-

not some such policy here lift Sacramento

The Attorney-General replies that the

shepeless Mass-Hfen Horribly Man
Cled-A Signal Misinterpreted.
NEWCASTLE Pa, Sept. pa terrible
wreck occurred to-day on the Pittsburg
and Western railroad at McKim's siding, G.
station short distance north of Zelienople,
Butler county. At this point a work train
with a force of fifty men was engaged in
putting down q new track. About s o'clock
this morning the work train got out of the
way of Il freight train going west, but the
Grew did rot know that second section of
the same number was following five min
utes later.
THE CRASH.
The work train again pulled ous on the
main track, and the men were engaged in
throwing of dirt when the second section
struck the work train with great force
The cars were piled up In shapeless mass.
The engines we're q mass OF broken iron
and wood. and steam and boiling water
poured over the unfortunate ones caught
in. the jam. For moment after the col
lisiou there was silence. Then the air was
broken by the shrieks of the dying, making
the scene so terrible that one Of the train
men who had escaped injury tainted with
horror.
REsCUING THE INJURED.
The trainmen and laborers who were not
injured began at once to assist those i'm
prisoned in the debris. Severed arms and
legs were found in different places, and the
head of an Italian was found
twenty feet away from the
body. Engineer John Houghton, who
had bravely done his best to stop his engine,
attached to the freight train, was found
wedged in the broken and shapeless iron.
By IL o'clock the bodies Of eight Italian
laborers had been taken from the wreck,
and, with the killing of Engineer Hough-
ton, this swells the number to nine.
TWENTY INJURED.
There were at least twenty men injured,
several of whom cannot recover. All of
the bodies were terribly mangled and dis
figured. Engineer Houghton was the only
American killed. His home is said to be in
Allegheny. Assistance was tele-
gTaphed for to Zelienople and
in short time physicians and
citizens were at the scene rendering all the
assistance in their power. At this writlng
the exact cause of the disaster cannot be
harmed, but, as usual, it is said that the
mistake was made by the trainmen, who did
not correctly interpret a signal.
