SEEING THE SIGHTS.
A Delegation Of Visiting Ladies
Shown Over the City.
They Call Upon Governor Markham
and Were Handsomely Received
Other Incidents.

Yesterday morning the delegates to the
Grand Council of the Young Ladies' In
stitute were treated to a most enjoyable
coaching party by Capital Council, No.
IL, Y. NJ. I. The weather was all that
could be desired for the occasion, and as
the coaches drove down the Riverside
road to where the members of the Art
School were sketching, back through the
suburbs to East Park and Suffers Fort,
enthusiastic and laudatory remarks were
heard from the fair visitors on the beau
tifnl scenery of the Riverside and East
Park, the elegant and costly residences,
and patriotic sentiments were uttered as
Suffers Fort was inspected. The out
skirts and resident portion of Sacramento
was revelation to all.
The Committee of Arrangements of Y.
NJ. 1. No. IL, consisting of Messrs. O'Cal-
laghan, Kent, Long, McInerney, Sulli-
van, Moran, Dunn, Hook, Desmond and
Murphy, were at the Capital Hotel at $3.50
A. NJ, and at 10 o'clock the word was
given, and Lafferty's large carryall. and
Kent Brothers three wagonettes, filed
with about sixty delegates and their
escorts, drove off.
About l o'clock the coaches arrived at
by State superintendent of Education ].
w. Anderson, and by him conducted
through the building, not forgetting a
trip to the dome. When all were as
sembled in the State Library, and had
entered their names in the visitors book,
Attorney-General Hart was introduced,
and spoke IN fitting terms to the visitors.
Governor Markham received the dele
gates in his office, and they were intro
duced to him individually by the Grand
President, Miss Mamie Sweeney. That
young lady must be congratulated on her
neat and graceful address to the Gov
ernor. and her Introduction to him of the
delegates and the escort from No. II.
The Governor responded in his most
happy style, and deported himself in his
usual urbane manner, so much so that a
general outburst of praise was heard
among the visitors after they had left his
office. If such a thing was allowed as
having honorary members of the Young
Ladies' Institute, Governor Markham
would receive a unanimous vote of the
delegates to the Grand Council.
Altogether the affair was most enioya-
BILE, and will be remembered as one of the
pleasing "reminiscences of the Grand
Council. 1t was a fitting close to an
agreeable week.
Most of the delegates left the city on
the afternoon train for San Francisco.
The Grand President, Miss Sweeney, and
Grand Secretary, Miss Malloy, both of
whom SO well deserve their unanimous
reelection to Office, left on the evening
train for Woodland to pay a short visit
before returning to San Francisco.

WILL PLEAD INSANITY.
The Defense OF John Haggerty WI
Murdered his Son.

The Defense Of John Haggerty Who
Murdered his Son.
The case Of old John Haggerty, who
stabbed his son, John Haggerty, Jr., to
death several weeks ago, was called in
the Superior Court yesterday.
w. A. Anderson, who was recently ap-
pointed by the court to defend the old
man, asked that the trial be postponed
for the term, as he desired to send to
Pennsylvania for evidence to be used in
the case. Mr.. Anderson stated that in
sanity would be set forth as a excuse for
Haggerty's terrible crime, and the testi-
Ihony desired would be absolutely neces-
'sary.
District Attorney Ryan objected to such
long continuance, arguing that the de-
tense should have sent for the testimony
long ago.
When Mr.. Anderson explained, how
ever, that he had only recently learned of
the existence of this testimony, the Dis
trict Attorney consented to the postpone
ment, and the case went over for the
term, to be reset hereafter.

lze Mebius & Co.'s store on Front street
some time during Thursday night. 1t is
evident that the miscreants were expert
safe-crackers, as they bored holes
through the heavy toughened glass light
shaft in the sidewalk in front of the
place, so as to get a leverage for prying
them up. One of the watchmen at the
freight sheds frightened the prowlers off.
else they would have probably been soon
to work on Mebius IL Co.'s safe. The fact
that the burglars attempted to break in at
this particular place shows that they
were thoroughly familiar with the build
ing, as this was the only way the upper
portion of the building could have been
reached from beneath the sidewalk. The
police are Investigating the case.

The friends Of John Young, a painter
well known in this city, are wondering
where he is. He had paint-shop on K
street, near Seventh, but has not been
seen since last Monday, and his paints,
ladders, ETC., are just as he left them.
Mrs. Shane, who keeps lodging
house on Eighth and X streets, and with
whom Young has been stopping for the
past two years, says that the last time she
saw him was on Monday morning. He
went out as usual, dressed in his work
ing clothes, and she expected him to re-
turn to breakfast, but he did not.
She states that restaurant-keeper told
her that Young came to his place on
Sunday night and asked him for few
strings with which to tie up some bun
dies. He said he intended taking a trip
across the mountains.
The missing man has parents residing
in Brooklyn, n. Y. He was an indus

District Attorney Ryan received informa-
ton which led him to believe that Fredi-
ani's sickness was of the flake" order,
and that the lime -peddler was only try
ing to avoid trial.
The District Attorney left quietly for
San Francisco on the afternoon train
yesterday. and upon his arrival there
will have number of physicians ex-
anime F'rediani thoroughly.
Before leaving Mr.. Ryan said he had
suspected for some time that Frediani
was playing -possum," and he was now
about satisfied that such was the case.
To make sure, however, he intended to
have the lime-peddler examined by COM
petent physicians. He has learned where
Frediani is located and so will have no
trouble in finding him. If he finds that
the old man is not in the dying condition
that was reported, he will, upon his re-
turn, he says, have the case called up

Found In the River.

The naked body of an unknown man
was found in the river near Courtland a
few days ago. An inquest was held by a
Justice of the Peace, at which nothing
was developed tending to show who the
deceased was, and the body was buried.
There can be no doubt that the de-
ceased was the man who left his clothes
on the river-bank near Oak Hall recently
and went bathing in the river, and it
would seem that the proper thing for the
Courtland Justice to have done would
have been to notify the Coroner and have
the body sent to the Morgue, where some
body might have identified it.

A Good IYatcr FILTER.

The public has been taught the dangers
Of bad drinking water, SO that the neces-

been invented but As yet no filter has been
presented to the public which has all the
merits of being cheap, simple and prac-
ticabie The great dil1icultyI. that, where
us at first the filter clears the water, il soon
becomes filled with impurities which con
Illuminate all the water poured through
To obviate this difficulty it is suggested
to use prepared or absorbent cotton and
place a handful in large glass or tin fun
mel. The cotton must be packed down
tightly so that the water cannot pass

through. This water is collected in a
pitcher, which, when filed, should be
placed in an ice box 10 be cooled, us ice is
50 often impure that its use is not always
safe. The cotton should be changed every
few hours, otherwise the Impurities will
work through.
1t is true that after it is thoroughly wet
the cotton will not retain all the disease
| germs, but it will retain the majority of
/ them, 50 that the water viii be practically
harmless. All dirt or other matter will be
| completely separated and retained in tho
cotton, hence the cotton must be often re-
newed. The cotton Is very cheap, and a

| cured for few cents, SO that any one can
have pure water at minimum cost by this
