UP TO THE MARK.

It is scarcely doing our shoes justice to say that they are up to the mark-they are good enough to be little beyond it. You cannot treat your feet too well. They are the weight carriers, and if you cannot tighten their burden you can at least treat them considerably. En- close them in the best shoes you can buy. No thing that is worth what you pay for it is dear, and we haven't dear shoe in our store. You get the best of decidedly handsome bargain when for

SCHOOL OF DESIGN.
A Deserving notwithstanding of t
Winter Term To.dax

A Deserving NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. of the
Winter Term To-day.
The Sacramento School of Design opens
for the winter term to-day at the Art CAL
lery this morning. 1t enters upon its sixth
year proper. 1t is really the peoples insti-
tuition. 1t is conducted in the city's Art
Gallery by the California Museum Associa-
ton and with just enough of charge to
meet the expenses of teachers and incl
dentals on the basis of given average at
tendance. When this falls down, however,
it imperils the school.
1t has three thoroughly competent teach
ers, and four distinct branches, from land
scape and portraHure to china decorative
painting. The school ought to have far
better support than it has. But for the aid
given it by the Ladies' Museum Associa-
ton it could have been maintained only
with difficulty the past year. 1t is the only
School of Design in the interior, and there
is none upon the coast with equal advant-
ages or that has given better results.
The association conducting the school
does its full duty by it and expects more
liberal patronage for the future than in the
past if the institution is to be maintained.
There are many people whose tendencies
| tit them for designing who ought to be in
| the school, who waste their energies in So
called cheap and quick methods of learn.
ing. They ought to be advised that there
is but one road to excellence in art.
The school will have an exhibition in
March and medals will then be awarded in
| the several classes.

WORLDS FAIR LEGIsLATIoE.
Hon. Nj. M. Estee on Deck With
Two Bills.

Hon. Nj. M. Estee on Deck With
Two Bills.
Hon. M. NJ. Estee, Chairman of the Com
mittee on Legislation of the California
Worlds Fair Association, is at the Golden
Eagle Hotel. He is not one of the Office
seekers, but is here to look after legislation
to promote a suitable exhibition of Cali
fornia products at the Worlds Fair in
Chicago. Mr.. Estee believes that the Leg
islature should make liberal appropria-
ton for-Ecumulative exhibit at Chicago
If the management will not allow a cumu-
lative exhibit he does not want cent an.
propriated. He says, however, that there will
be no trouble on that score, as Mr.. Davis.
Superintendent of Grounds and Exhibits.
has telegraphed Commissioner Mcdonald
that California can have sufficient ground
for building of its own. Such being the
case, there is no reason why the Legislature
should refuse to appropriate fair sum for
the California exhibit.
Mr.. Estee has two bills prepared, which
he proposes to have introduced at az early
day. One provides for the appointment of
seven Commissioners, to take complete
control of the exhibit on behalf of the
State. These Commissioners are to receive
no salary, and only actual expenses. The
bill provides for an appropriation of $780,.
GOO, The other bill is an amendment to
the County Government Act, and provides
that Boards Of Supervisors may appro.
pirate money to aid their counties in get
ting up exhibits within the State exhibit.

ONE NIGHTS WORK.
THREE PLACES BURGLaRIzED DURING
SATURDAY NIGHT.
Thieves Becoming Internationally Numer.
ous, While the Chain Gang
Needs Recruits.

! The thieves that infest the city got in
some effective work bstween midnight on
Saturday ard the dawn of yesterday
morning. Christof Fredelicks, tailor
was awakened early on Sunday morning
! by roise in his room on L street. near
Fourth. On getting up to investigate he
was confronted by two burglars. One OF
them presented pistol to his head and
told him to take his choice between re.
naming quiet for brief time and being
hushed By ball from the weapon.
Seeing that he was at the mercy of the
| robbers, Fredericks quietly submitted. and
watched his visitors while they took S35
and check fer 800 from his pockets.
| They were about to take some building
and loan stock from his pocket-book, but
after brief consultation concluded they
would leave it. Mr.. Fredericks watched
them depart the came way they entered :
through window leading TO the porch.
The police We're notified.
THE BARKEEPER WAS THOUGHTFUL.
The barkeeper OF the Lodge Saloon on J
street, on closing the establishment for the
night left note on the counter telling the
man on The day watch that he would find
the money fer the morning change under
glass in the till. In the still aud early
hours OF Sunday morning the place was en-
tered, the thieves spied the note, ana fol-
lowing the directions took about So in coin
and $50 worth OF lottery tickets from the
till, and left without leaving a card OF
thanks to the obligiDg barkeeper who gave
them the straight tip.
Entrance to the Place wss effected by
slipping through q very small hole in the
toor OF the upper back porch, which en-.
abied the thief to reach window in the
rear OF the saloon. 1t must have been a
very small man, or boy, that managed to
let himself down through the hole.
PLAZA SALOON ROBBED.
Peter Menken's Plsza Saloon on ] street.
between Ninth and Tenth. was also entered
during the night and box of cigars and
several packages Of cigarettes were stolen,
also about 81 80 in money.
/ The police appear to have no clue rs to
the identity Of the thieves.
FILL Up THE CHAIN GANG.
Now that the new Police Judge appears
to be- DESTROYS of making record as dis
poser of tough characters, it might prove
wise thing for the police department to
run in" all the tough characters that hang
about the dives and have them sent to the
county Jail to strengthen the chain. gang,
A few raids made upon the dives where
these creatures make their headquarters
would doubtless have the effect of includ-
ing IN The roundup the very chaps who
are doing all the crooked work about the
city. There should be little trouble in
conyicting most of the gang of vagrancy.

offer intelligent opinions concerning the
prospects for this seasons grain crops. says
the Calf Gazette. A resume of thsir fore
casts bespeak most hountiful harvest for
this section of the State. Never in the
, history of this valley has 8 larger acreage
of wheat been soged, and tie work has
ell been done under the most favorable
circumstances. Although it is rather early
in the season to form anything like reliable
estimates yet we hear our most conserya-
tive farmers say that the prospects are
splendid for the largest crop harvest
gathered since 1884.
Grain soTed upon summer-fallow long
enough 10 sprout is coming up nicely and
looking thrifty. The winter sown has not
been planted sufficient length of time TO
sprout, although several tracts put in in the
early part Of last month are showing a
tinge of green. From information at hand,
it will take some two weeks TO com piete
the sowing of wheat in this section. In
fact three-fourths of the ranchers are thus
engaged al present.
1t is safe 10 say that the aggregate acreage
sown to wheat in the southern portion OF
Sacramento county will exceed that OF las.
season by fully two-thirds. The acreage
devoted to barley will be twice that OF last
