BRIEF NOTES.

A freight platform is being erected at
Arno by the railroad company.
There is talk of establishing pottery
works near Guthrie's Station with S25,-
600 plant.
1t is reported that j. c. cambridge has
gone to Australia, accompanied by l.. O..
r. Dennis.
In the Police Court last week $40 was
imposed in fines, of which S85 was col
lected and turned into the city treasury.
A few days ago the little daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Harnley of Alabama town.
ship fell from horse and fractured one
of her arms.
"a Constant Reader and Lover of the
RECoRD-UNIoN" is informed that his
communication cannot be answered un-
less he sends in his name. That is the
rule of the Office.
San Joaquin is not kicking very stren-
uously about the grasshoppers, but the
swamp land farmers are decidedly put
out because the swarms of mudhens are
eating up their grain.
The establishment of fruit cannery in
the Orangevale colony next season is
being discussed. By that time there will
be enough fruit grown there to supply
the proposed institution.
The old awnings are rapidly coming
down on street. This is another vic
tory for press agitation. If it had not
been for the newspapers these monu-
ments to silurianism would have re-
mained until somebody had breathed on
them. ~ -
The Brewers held their annual picnic at
Richmond Grove yesterday, and it was
largely attended. After the picnic a
number of rough characters remained in
the grove and made night hideous with
their rowdyism, for which the manage
ment were not responsible.

A NEW FUEL.
An Article That is Said to be Rival
of Coal,

An Article That is Said to be q Rival
of Coal.
A few days since there was published
in these columns the announcement that
a company had filed articles of incorpora-
ton for the purpose of engaging in the
manufacture of new composite fuel. 1t
is said that the experiments made have
been highly satisfactory.
The new fuel consists of asphaltum and
peat mixed. Coal is scarce and Of inferior
quality in California. Foreign coal has
to be brought long distance and is high
in price, which does much to discourage
manufacturing, as well as to make the
cost of living high. But asphaltum
abounds along the coast south of San
Francisco, and peat in other parts of the
State, and it is asserted that for few
dollars a ton endless quantities OF the
new fuel can be produced, which will
burn equally well IN furnaces and the
kitchen stove.
The composition is compressed into
blocks or bricks. Experiments have been
tried with this fuel at the Judson Iron
Works and at Belmore's foundry at San
Francisco with satisfactory results. f.
NJ. Pixley is Secretary of the company
and a Mr.. Murray is the inventor of the
process,

Bert Graham Discovers One of Fol-
SONS Old Mining Shafts.
On Tuesday evening, says the Folsom
Telegraph of Saturday, Bert Graham
went down the Sacramento road for the
purpose of driving home his fathers cow.
He was riding horse that belonged in
McComber's livery stable, and on his
way back came across a part Of the coun-
try that had been extensively mined, and
where there are several abandoned min
ing shafts. The brush has grown around
the mouths of a great many of them, and
their existence is only discovered when q
person falls into them
Into one of these shafts Bert and the
horse he was riding went, and disap-
peared from view so suddenly as to as
tonish Dan Brown, who was present
The shaft was twenty-five feet deep, and
fortunately for Bert there was a Shelf
about eight feet from the top. He re-
tanned sufficient presence of mind to
catch hold of it, and the horse went to
the bottom. Dan Brown set nobly to
work, and soon had his companion out
of danger and on firm ground.
Leaving him to watch Dan rode to
town and informed several of what oc-
CURED. a number of our citizens started
for the spot for the purpose of rescuing
the horse. After a couple of hours the
animal was brought to the surface, but
was found to have been killed by the fall
Bert had narrow escape from death or
serious injury. Had he fallen to the bot
tom of the shaft he would have undoubt-
edly been tramped to death by the ami
NAL in its struggles.

The Gravel Haulers Have Not Notf-
fled Their Employers.
In reference to the report that the
gravel haulers employed by the I'm
provement Company were dissatisfied
with the compensation allowed them by
the company, D. A. Lindley, one of the
stockholders, told a RECoRD-UNIoN re-
porter last evening that as yet the COM
pany had not been officially notified of
any contemplated strike.
1t was reported on the streets yester-
day that the Improvement Company di-
rectors had held a meeting to consider
the subject, but this Mr.. Lindley denied.
I'VE had nothing to consider" he said,
land therefore had no reason for holding
meeting. There has been no reduction
of wages at all. We pay so much per
load for hauling gravel, graduating the
rate according to the distance it has to
be hauled. If the men intend to strike,
/ suppose we win find it out soon enough
1t will then be proper for US to hold a
meeting and decide what to do.''

OLD SOLDIERS

The Governor Calls Attention to the
Act Intended for Their Benefit.
Governor Markham has issued circu-
lar calling attention to the Act passed by
the last Legislature, which provides:
''1n every department, upon all public
works, whether under contract or not, in
all offices, employments, places, and posi-
tions of trust or profit of this State, hon
orably discharged ex-Union soldiers,
sailors and marines of the War of the
Rebellion, must be preferred for ap-
pointment, employment and retention
therein; and age, loss of limb, or other
physical impairment, which does not in
fact incapacitate, shall not be deemed to
dtisqualify them; provided, they possess
the capacity necessary to fill the position;
and persous thus preferred or appointed,
unless appointed for a definite statutory
period, shall not be dismissed from such
positions, offices or employments, ex-
cept upon charges, after hearing, and
for just cause.'

POST-PICNIC BRAWLERS.
Promiscuous Fighting at Richmond
Grove Last Night.
Mike German and Frank Warren Get
Slashed In Sort of Free
Fight There.

Richmond Grove had better be blotted
from the city's map than that it should
be made rendezvous for toughs and
night brawlers.
The brewers held picnic there yester-
day, and it passed off in a fairly quiet
manner. But when the shades of night
fell upon the scene, and most of the pic
nickers had left the grounds, together
with the police, a number of drunken
fellows took possession of the place and
several fights occurred.
About o'clock a general melee took
place, during which Mike German and
Frank Warren, or Warner, received Sc
we're knife-wounds. The former was
taken to his home in the vicinity of Six
teenth and n streets. 1t is understood
that he is severely, but not dangerously,
wounded.
Warren was taken to the police station.
He was slashed across one of his arms,
and will soon recover. He refused to
talk about the affair, or tell who did the
cutting. 1t was learned from police
officer, however, that the trouble was all
brought about by the person who was
running the bar failing to close his place
when the picnic was ended. He con-
tinued to keep open and supplied the
toughs who remained with liquor.
German, it is said, had a row with one
of the barkeepers, during which he drew
his knife and cut him on the hand. He
and some of his companions then left the
grounds $50 the officer states), but were
induced by the parties inside to return.
When the German contingent got back
there they were jumped by the other
crowd, and in the fight that followed the
carving was done.
Hereafter the manager of picnics at
festivities are concluded and the police
withdrawn, the bar is also closed With
out the latter attraction the rough charac-
ters would not remain, and the neighbor-
hood would be spared the intliction Of
afternight fights and rowdyism there.

THOSE CONCERTS
A Mistake Delays Negotiations for the
Use of Capitol Park.

A Mistake Delays Negotiations for the
Use of Capitol Park.
1t looks as if the controversy over the
use of Capitol Park for open-air concerts
is going to be as hard to suppress as was
Banquo's ghost. 1t was stated in these
columns on Saturday-on the authority
ofa member ofthe Capitol Commissioners
that the board met on Friday, but took
no action in regard to granting the use of
the park for concerts, because no formal
application had been made by the Con-
cert Committee.
Now comes the Secretary of the com
mittee, who says that at noon on Friday
the Secretary of the Capitol Commits
sioners informed him that the board had
not yet met, and thereupon the former
handed him a communication to be sub
mitted to the board, if it should hold
session, making formal request for the
use of the grounds.
There must have been an oversight
committed somewhere.
