IT would be much better, if in
aasaa of finding fault and trying to
shrow obstacles in the way of the
management, every newspaper in
die country would do its part toward
making the Worlds Fair a success.
Its failure would not as some people
aem to suppose, be merely a dis
grace to Chicago; it would be na-
Soaal calamity that would cause the
world to smile at our boosted supe-
monty in wealth and intelligence.
We have no idea that it will be a
failure, in fact We know it will not
be- If Chicago cannot raise all Of
she money needed, Congress will
supply it. The fair is bound to be
rsla, and it is bound to eclipse all
the exhibitions of a similar nature
Ihat have preceded it. That much

mach easier managed if the press

If they are not gathered il the harvests
and seasons of that year, such as are
secured before the fair opens will be
meager and unsatisfactory.
1t is therefore necessary that the COM
mission should lay its plans and give the
information to the people at once. 1t
cannot afford to delay long, certainly not
at all in arranging to procure the cereals
necessary for the display, and for the
matter Of that, nearly all other objects
representing the productive capacity and
the natural history of the State.
Only few of our people will be able to
60 to Chicago in 1893 to see what repre-
sentation California may have. The great
mass of the population and the very
large majority of the producers must re-
main at home. It would seem, therefore,
that it would be an excellent stroke of
policy and would tend to greatly popu-
larize the work of the commission and
contribute to its success, to announce that
the exhibits to be gathered from this
time on Will be placed on view at the
State Fair, to be held in the fall of next
year.
The advantages Of such procedure will
be these: 1t will enable people to see the
exhibits and to Understandings criticise
them; it will stimulate the contributive

idea how the California exposition as
whole will appear, and to note its weak
points and to correct any inadequacy.
All the exhibits gathered by September,
1892, excepting machinery, can, with
economy and great benefit, be placed in
the State Fair. It is State institution.
a pavilion OF adequate dimensions is pos
sessed by the State Agricultural Society.
Transportation of the exhibits to it costs
nothing. The demand upon the commits
sion will, therefore, be very light. Here
the goods can be gathered. inspected and
placed in view before shipment to Chi
cago, at trifiiug expense aud besides

aggregation at this point will serve the
commission most beneficially in many
obvious ways.
Such display, then, set up at the State
Fair is greatly to be desired, and oughtto
be made part of the scheme of the COM
mission. In no other manner can it so
well arrive at correct idea of what will
be the character and extent of the show
ing the State is to make on its own ac-
count at Chicago.
The idea expands and grows in en-
phasis the more it is considered. At no
other point, for instance, can the exhibits
be SO easily and speedily gathered for
final shipment eastward. Here, then, of
all others, is the place at which to group
them economically for inspection by our
own people.
Let the commission give the suggestion
the serious consideration that its import
ance demands. We conceive it to be one
of high value and entirely feasible.

DESCRIPTION OF THE LIGHT TRACT
COLONY.

TTHE TRACT OF LAND TO WHICH THE
4 above name has been given Is located only
four miles from the towns of Newcastle and
Penryn, both on 9. 2. r. R. the leading
fruit shipping points of Central California
The elevation is $50 feet at Newcastle being
above the range of fogs and not too far inland
10 escape the cool evening breeze which comes
so refreshing from the ocean. The evenings i'm
this locality are delightful. The county seat
IS only miles away, at the town of Auburn
where hundreds OF people with lung com
plaint congregate every year. The tract
originally contained AS acres which has
been subdivded into lots of 20 acres. with u
road leading from the county road to each lot.
so all Will have an open drive to and from
their land. The soil is of a dark color deep
rich and easily cultivated. 1t is all cleared OF
underoruSh, which is great saving to a be-
ginner, aS the usual cost of clearing land is
not less than $50 per acre. Nearly every LOT
has WOOD enough for family use for years
Corn grows without irrigation; in fact no irri-
CATION is needed for anything planted save
berries. Orange trees planted at IooInis had
no water except rainfall, grew well and but
one died. Should person buying need
water IT can be easily obtained as {. ditch
runs through one corner of the tract
Several parties have already purchased and
are highly pleased, which anyone can see IIpon
tracts now under cultivation.
Our terms were never offered before upon
any tract OF land so centrally located as the
above. MAPS showing subdivisions in our

the limits of good that may be effected,
and the benefits that may be visited upon
society by these simple and humane
means of counteracting hopelessness,
vagrancy and crime?
Such progress has the kindergarten
work made in the United States, and so
rapidly are the schools increasing in
number, that normal and training schools
to fit teachers for the kindergartens are
demanded in greater number. In answer
to this need, the Golden Gate Association.
we are told, has organized such depart
ment. and its training school is now
actively at work. 1t is gratifying also to
learn from the official reports that the
kindergarten system under the San Fran
cisco association is conceded to be the
best systematized and the best financially
and educationally in the world. Under
it new feature has been recently planned
to supplement the original work-that is,
to correct inability and lack of ambition
to do anything well, by those in poverty,
by establishing industrial schools for
manual training in several of the useful
handicrafts that both boys and girls
should know something of. One person
of wealth has already come forward and
offered an endowment for the first of
these schools of extended kindergarten
form. In fact, the possibilities of the
kindergarten spirit are as yet only dimly
seen; What it may lead up to and promises
to attain is of wonderfully benefcent and
far-reaching character.

NATURAL GAS.

ITO PROPERTY-HOLDERS OF THE CITY
i of Sacramento: During the past year, by
means of fund raised by eighty-one citizens,
an effort has been in progress to secure a flow
of natural gas at Fifth and Il streets.
AT depth of nine hundred feet flow was
obtained which practically settles the ques-
tiOn of the existence OF an extensive reservoir
OF this material in one of the underlying
stratums of our city, and the quality of the
gas has been found to be Identical with Il at
which is now flowing from thirteen wells IN
Stockton, and adding largely to the manu-
factories, wealth and population of our sister
city. From accidental causes, our present
boring cannot be carried to q necessary depth
without the expenditure of sum sufficient
TO sink large portion of new well in a
more perfect manner. It has, therefore, been
decided by the directors to make q new boring
upon the same lot; and to continue this en-
terpTise ffty-eight OF the original stockhold-
ers have duplicated their subscriptions. As
the company now owns its plant Tor boring
and has Several hundred feet of pipe on hand
1t is believed by some that the amount sub
Scribed will be sufficient to procure @ large
and profitable flow of gas. Realizing, how
ever, that unforeseen difficulties may arise
in boring at great depths and knowing that
should % full flow be struck more funds would
certainly be needed to construct holders and
lay distributing pipes, it has been decided to
ask citizens for further subscriptions in order
to provide for all probable contingencies. a
committee of our present stockholders, con-
sisting of Hon. f. II. Dray, Claus Anderson,
Z. j. Croly, NJ. j. Dillman, A. q. Hinkson and
Z. C.. Hopkins, will soon wait upon property
nOlOerS lot Iurbner ala IN THIS very important
matter, involving, as il does, the material in
terests OF our city, and holding out promise
to furnish all our people with as cheap light
and fuel as can be had in any city in Califor-
MIA.
In presenting this statement the Directors
would respectfully suggest that citizens inter-
ested in the prosperity of Sacramento exam
inc this project, and also make themselves
acquainted with the grand results obtained at
Stockton by public spirit in this direction.
The sum asked for is small, but with reason

RAILWAY WRECK.
Near Kinney Freight Train Jumps the
Track, is Wrecked and Three
Men Hurt.

Eleven miles south of here, near
Kenney, Thursday about 2 p. m. No.
SO, a northbound freight train on
the Santa Fe, while backing up to a
tank, jumped the track and was
completely wrecked, every car going
off the track, four or five Of them
stopping crosswise on it, the engine
tumbling over on one side, the ten
der on the other. Mr.. s. II. Culp,
of YOUNGSTOWN, Pa, engineer, had his
nose mashed, head and arm bruised.
Geo. Fl. Allen, head brakeman, 30
years of age, with residence in
Utica, n. Y, had his knee, nose, arm
and leg scalded and his ankle badly
hurt, besides some scratches in the
face, and numerous bruises.
j. W. Pope, fireman, age %, resi-
dence in Bell county, had both
hands and his lie k badly scalded
and seemed to be the worst hurt of
any of them. All were single men.
Dr's. Lockett and Becker went
down to the scene Of the wreck and
had the men brought up and carried
to Mr.. A 81. Woods boarding house,
where their wounds were dressed.
