To Improve tho World.

IS As the result Of q scheme set up for sen.
sationalism In New York newspaper of1ce
through reporter available for such work.
80 meeting was held In o Fifth avenue
4 church on Thursday evening to start q
movement. as described in its call. ito
Z make the world better place to live In
z beginning at New York"
Such movement has been going on cease
lossly ever since man came into the world.
and ~ will continue without cessation until
I the end Of all things. It does not need i'm
petus from any meeting like that of Thurs
day night. forit proceeds Of necessity and
by the law OF mans being. Man liz always
dissatisfied with things as they are and
always trying to better them. That discon-
tent keeps society from stagnation or from
retrograding to barbarian. It explains the
tireless Investigations Of science and 1t fur
nlshes the common motive Of all religions.
The movement started at the Fifth ave-
nue. church 10 therefore neither novel nor
original. It could have been conceived by
childish mind only. and really it is moth
ing more than scheme Of an individual for
obtaining notoriety. though some people
seem to have taken 1t seriously as an i'm
portant philanthropio enterprise, and GER
tain ministers. we are told. have promised
TO preach on the subject.
\ First Of all. people must come into agree
ment as to what are the desired and desir-
able Improvements. Up to this time they
have not reached that concord. and the
variation OF their Views as to the subject ls
expressed IN party divisions in religion and
poliHcS. The Roman Catholics have one
method and the Professionals another. the
DemoCyAts one theory and the Republicans
another. and the plan OF the Socialists Is
totally distinct from all Of them. The inf
dels say that the Church Is the great OBJ
stAcle Ia the way OF the needed advance
ment, and the Church declares that real
progress requires the extinction OF infidel-
ity. S0suce proclaIms that 1t alone Is send
ing the world forward. and religion answers
Z that Heaven only can produce the result.
~ Here In this town the disagreement as to
what makes place better to live In is wide
and irreconcilable. The sort OF New York
wanted by the Fifth avenue meeting. 80 far
from being better than the present New
York, In the opinion Of the majority OF the
people would be worse. and intolerable.
That meeting represented only a very
small partof the population. and the part
which is least in sympathy with the pre-
vailipg spirit. and most ignorant OF the
wishes and purposes Of the ruling majority.
Moreover. New York has been steadily i'm
proving. year by year. without the assist

Tho Horse Show.

The magnificent success OF tho Horse
Show last week is an impressive indication
Of the rapid increase Of the popular interest
in the development Of the horse as an ami
NAL contributory to mere luxury and pleas
ure rather than as beast Of burden Of
practical service to man.
A few years ago the annual Horse Show
at New York barely paid its expenses. lit
did not involve loss to the originators Of
the exhibition. 1t attracted many visitors.
but they were notenough to crowd the ugly
old Madison Square Garden smphitheatre.
The great public outside Of the owners Of
horses themselves were not enthusiastic
concerning It, The show passed by as an
event of very subordinate interest and i'm
portance in the general estimation. The
number Of those capable Of approaching at
all the merits OF the animals displayed
and Of distinguishing between spe-
cial superiority In the different classes
was limited to comparatively few in
dividuals. with whose tastes. occupations.
and ambitions the run Of the people had
little sympathy. The show was regarded as
for the luxurious rich and the men who have
passion for horse races, and not for the
great mass Of society. Even fashion took
no more than languid interest In 1t. It
was not q great fashionable function.
though from the first people Of social
prominence were chiefly concerned In ar
ranging the exhibition and were earnest in
Its support.
Last year all this was changed. The
Horse Show became OF q sudden both popu.
lar and fashionable far beyond the expecta-
tlons or the hopes Of Its originators. and 1t
closed with rich profit In money. 1t was
an exhibition which ranked even with BAR
NUNS show In its attraction for the public.
and 1t was the foremost display Of the
year for every part Of tho community.
Everybody was interested In II. and
horse talk monopolized conversation
in every circle. Women were even
more enthusiastic than mon over the show.
and many Of them gave evidence OF an ex-
pert knowledge Of horseflesh which was
not less than we fnd among men best &C.
quainted with the subject. The throng at
the Madison Square Garden included both
and those who are most careless about
fashion. In the boxes were to be seen the
lovely faces which lend 80 brilliant an at
traction to the opera during the greatest
splendor Of It's season. and on the door and
In the ordinary seats was great popular
Il seemed a. II the show had
reached the loftiest pinnacle Of Its possible
glory and grandeur. Yet last weeks ex-
perience proved that the interest mani
tested last year was only the beginning Of
q swelling wave OF popular enthusiasm.
The-late Horse Show was by far the
greatest public exhibition OF the year. and
II 1t had continued week longer It's sttrac-
ton for the people would probably have re-
manned undiminished. Two vast political
meetings were held at the same place during
the last canvass. but they were attended by
no larger crowds than were eager to pay
the admission fee to see the display Of horses

The Antarctic expedition which is soon to
be sent out by the Australian colonies with
the assistance Of o wealthy Swede and under
the direction Of Baron NoRDENsKJoID. Is
merely preliminary venture. The idea is
that o properly equipped expedition can be
sent to the South Polar regions for six months
at no very great cost, and in that time IL can
decide whether It 10 worth while to carry on
further explorations Il is. OF course. to be
expected that well-eouippsd steamer absent
half year from Australia will accomplish
great deal more than such an expedition -
that OF Sir JAMES Ross. which was composed
Of two very slow sailing vessels. II Il Is found
that the opportunity for profitable researches
IL 80 rich as II 10 believed to be. the preliminary
expedition will be followed By . moro ambi-
tious enterprise
Australia is interested in this venture be-
cause scientific men there have no doubt
whatever that the climate Of Australia IL
affected to q large extent by the conditions
prevailing at the South Pole, and they wish to
ascertain what these conditions are. II is
hoped also that the expedition will solve the
problem OF the south magnetic pole. whose
place has not yet been discovered. Its position
has. according to the best calculations, been
fixed in about long. 154' and Int. rs. It will
be very interesting to fix the place whore the
needle dips perpendicularly downward. and
the discovery Of the exact position Of tho
south magnetic pole is likely to add materially
to the safety Of navigation in far Southern
waters.

The Question fs,- Did 1t Cause the
Death of Jose RodrIguess
If Frank Silva should be found he will
probably have to answer very serious
charge before the Superior Court. Last
month social eventn took place at the
house of his neighbor, Jose Rodrigues,
and among the large number of citizens,
who were not expected, was Silva.
He felt the slight keenly, and after the
party guests had taken leave of their
host he went to the house and told Jose
what he thought of him.
Then there was war, and Silva crack ed
Rodrigues over the head with some kind
of a weapon, for which he was assessed
$50 in the Police Court, which he paid.
But Rodrigues soon went into decline
presumably from the effects of the blow
and on Monday night he died. His
body was taken charge Of by the Coroner,
and now the question arises, was Silva's s
blow the cause of his death?
Because if it was, Silva will have 10
answer for it, provided he can be found.
He left here some.weeks ago, and was last
heard of in Livermore Valley, Alameda
County.
Rodrigues was member of the order

HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION.
The Doctors of Sacramento at Work
on a New Scheme.
This City VIII Now Have Private
Hospital of Prominence-Organ
zation Complete.

Nearly every city of importance in
California has one or more large private
hospitals of note except Sacramento.
There are many people who, being i'll
and having no homes, prefer not to go to
the public hospitals as long as they have
means to support them in an institution
where the specialties are practiced.
The more prominent physicians of Sac
ramento have felt the need of just such
an institution here for many year, and
while the ACCESSIBILITY of establishing one
was often discussed, yet nothing of a
definite nature transpired until recently.
A week or SO ago a meeting of all the
prominent physicians of town was held,
and it was decided to establish hospital
association, which should have under it's
control hospital that in time would
become the equal Of any of the
institutions on the coast. 1t was
stated that many patients from Au-
burn, Colfax, Newcastle, Woodland,
Truckee and other neighboring places
passed through Sacramento daily en-
route to the hospitals in San Francisco.
whereas were there such institutions here
they could be accommodated. The re-
suit of the meeting was that committee
was appointed for the purpose OF locating
a place for hospital.
On Saturday evening the physicians
met again to hear the committees report,
there being present Drs. w. r. Cluness,
Sr., C.. b. Nichols, w. a. Briggs, @. L..
Simmons, G. c. Simmons and J. II.
Parkinson. Temporary organization was
first effected as follows: DR.. w. r. Clu-
ness President, and DR.. Parkinson Sec
retary. The committee then reported in
favor of selecting the Ridge Home Hos
pital after it had been rebuilt, as proposed
by DIR. Simmons. Several new wings are
to be added 10 the hospital, capable of ac-
commodating at least twenty-five more
patients.
The doctors only intend this as the
nucleus for a hospital for Sacramento,
which will eventually become as well
known as any of those of San Francisco
or other cities. They propose to get to
work as soon as possible, and all physi-
clans of known reputation and response
bility may be eligible to membership to
the association. Members may then send
patients there. and patients who apply
for admittance will be cared for.
The doctors propose to divide them
selves off into the various specialties-
surgical, medical, obstetrics, diseases of
women, etc.-so that the best skill and
treatment will be available.

brought at once on demand note, but
the rule does not seem TO be in accord
with the general principles of pleading.
The cause of action would consist OF the
right to the money on demand, the de-
mand and the breach of the agreement,
or failure to pay. If the bringing of the
suit is the demand, still before suit was
brought there was no breach.
"Upan giving note payable on de-
mand," adds the court, lone naturally
expects that some time would be allowed.
Under our code, for the purpose Of fixing
the liability OF indorsers, the apparent
maturity of such note, bearing interest,
is one year. 1t is not to be supposed that
debtor would add to his debt the liabil-
ity for an attorney'sfee if he expected to
be sued at once. But, on giving such a
note, he adds an inducement to sue at
once and without-on the view adopted
by the court-a chance to escape the dam
age. In this light such stipulation is
simply calculated to encourage litigation,
and has in some States been declared
against public policy, and void"
The Judgment is reversed.
