BLACK AND WHITE ART.
The Exhibition to Be Made by the
Ruskin Club.

KuSk1n CluD.
The second annual exhibition OF the
Ruskin Art club is one of the attractions
to all those interested in real art, as
separated from that mass of so-called
art which has, of late, enveloped the
country. This exhibition, like that OF
last year, includes only works in black
and white, but is not confined to wood
engravings. Instead of repeating the
artists Of the Paris exhibit. the engrav-
ing on wood will be chiefly devoted to
Mr.. Closson, whose new process" will
be very fully represented.
The larger, and by far the more inter-
esting, part of this collection is an un-
usual number of old line engravings,
etchings and mezzo tints. 1t is safe to
say that it will contain some of the
finest prints ever shown in this country,
not to mention vicinity.
Mr.. Keppel, the well-known New
York dealer and connoisseur, is sending
many of the choicest works he has for
sale. Mr.. Vickery, of San Francisco, is
also sending the best at his demand,
while Mr.. Sloane, who established his
reputation while in Los Angeles, as an
excellent art critic, is to send from Den
yer whatever he may obtain valuable
either to the student or to the general
public.
The efforts OF these gentlemen, COM
binedOwith those of the Ruskin club
itself, is sure to result in collection of
uniform and unequaled merit, one to
which all lovers of art may look forward
with pleasure and remember with salts

En- Enterprising Business Man.

Mr.. w. S. +. Borsum, general agent
for Phil. Hollenbach & Co., of Louisville
KY, (propretors of the Glencoe distil-
lery) and also the owner OF the 'Sunset
Cigar factory" at 261 South Los Angeles
street, has recently taken possession OF
the Los Angeles Theater Sample Par
lors," which speaks very highly for the
futue success OF this we'll known resort.
Mr.. Borsum has for long time been
known in this city as very popular
salesman. The popularity he has gained
does him no more credit than that which
is due him, and the fact that he has
represented so reputable firm as the
distillers Of the Glencoe whisky, which
is so extensively handled by the very
best retail dealers in this city and
Southern California generally, adds still
more to recommend great future pros
pect. The Glencoe whisky is fast gain
ing favor among the dealers and con-
noiseuirs and no doubt has as great a
reputation as any other product in the
market

A Game Today.
About five hundred people attended
the baseball game yesterday between
the Los Angeles and San Diego teams.
The game was not up to the standard of
the previous ones played at these
grounds. The play was trifle loose at
the start, and runs came very freely.
The players buckled down to work after
the third inning, and the result was a
close game, the Los Angeles nine COM
ing out victorious by score Of 8 to s.
Several good plays characterized the
game, but the error column was trife
larger than it should be.
Young pitched and Lohman caught
for the winners.
Darby and DUNCAN constituted the
battery for the San Diego team.
The score by innings is as follows

The Yield of Corn, wheat and oats IN

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.-The estimates
OF the products of 1890, as compiled by
the statistician of the department of
agriculture, make the corn aggregate
,489. $40, 900 bushels wheat, 399, 262, 900
bushels oatsf 523. .631 900 bushels.
The aggregate of the wheat area is &c.
OS7, ,l54 acres, nearly the same as in
1885, The yield per acre is IL bushels.
The yield per acre is the same as in
1888, when the product was nearly 49,
600 900 bushels, and, with two excep-
tions, is the lowest rate during the past
decade.
The area in oats was 26,431 1863 acres,
and the yield per acre, 1913 bushels.
PRESENT CROP CONDITIONS.
The December condition of the grow
ing wheat crop is returned at 9S.4, and
rye at 80. Along the Atlantic coast a
slight depreciation is noticed as the re-
sult of an excess of moisture, in some
localities. In the Ohio valley the sea-

and early growth, and the plant entered

TRACK LAID IN 1900.
In all 6o8I Miles Laid During the
Past Year.

Past Year.
As aforeshadowed in our nine months
statement, published October 4th, the
new railway mileage of the United
States for the year shows quite an in
crease over that of the previous year, ag-
creating, according to our present fig
ures, 60S0 miles, compared with about
5000 miles added in 1889, gain of $50
miles. Over 1000 miles OF the years in
crease are in the southern group OF
states, and about 1000 miles of it are in
the southwestern group in both of which
sections railway building has been phe-
nOmenally active. The northwestern
group shows 1047 miles of new track
a greater relative increase than either OF
those sections, or more than 400 miles
compared with the previous years
growth. This is largely owing to the
active building operations of the North
ern Pacific and Great Northern lines,
the former having made many impor-
tant extensions and the latter having
pushed its Pacific coast line close to the
Rocky mountains. The increase OF
mileage in the Pacific coast states and
the New England and eastern states
shows about the same as last year, indi-
eating healthy growth OF existing lines
in the latter section, with nearly two
thirds Of the increase in the former Sec
tion located in Washington.
We give herewith summary from
our detailed records showing the mum.
ber Of lines and the mileage built in
each OF the states and groups, subject

Attention.

Fecull2r method AIKEN TO Attract
Attention.
There appears in the window OF a
vacant store in the Dencker block, at
253 South Spring street, variety of
peculiar signs printed in English,
French, German and Spanish, stating
that the above place will be opened in a
few days. These signs, however, are
left blank in the space where they
should mention what sort OF goods are
to be handled, and also the name of the
party or parties who are to start this
new enterprise, and the only impression
to be had is that the advertisement
reads, ga Full and Complete Line of
Ladies' and Children's -" which
partially indicates the business. Nu-
merous persons who have inquired into
the matter state that no satisfaction as
yet can be had of what the business is
to be, except that in due time these
blanks will contain complete explana-
ton. 1t is rumored, however, that in a
very short time people will have an op-
portunity OF attending one of the grand
est openings ever given in this city, and
also to inspect one of the handsomest
stocks of goods.

HOUSE PROCEEDINGS.
The Military Appropriation Bill Creates
Sectional Discussion.


Sectional Discussion.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.-In the house
today, Butterworth, from the committee
on appropriations, reported the legis-
lative appropriation bill, and it was
placed on the calendar.
The house then went into committee
of the whole on the army appropriation
bill.
Cutcheon, of Michigan, chairman of
the committee on military affairs, ex-
planned that the bill was purely an
appropriation measure, and contained
no general legislation whatever. The
amount carried was $400, 400 more than
the appropriation for the present year.
Lanhan, of Texas, took occasion, in
speaking of the unanimous action of the
committee on the bill, to deprecate sec
tionalism.
Kerr, of Iowa, replying, spoke of the
failure OF the colored people of the south
to obtain their right to exercise the
franchise, and paid his respects to Mis-
souri, as q state refusing to honor union
soldiers by electing them to public
Offices.
Tarsney, of Missouri, entered denial
vigorously.
T. Pe4ding further debate the committee
rose, and eulogistic addresses were made
in memory of the late Joseph ?. Walker,
of Missouri.
The house then adjourned.
