State Fair Notes.
1t was enormously stated the other day
that Director Sam Gamble was the starter
for the running races. That honor. how
ever, belongs to Tom Jones, who is max
ing quite reputation as a starter.
On Saturday the judges invited Pro-
fessor Tobin, the celebrated from bonist,
to their stand, where he rendered couple

1t has been decided to replace the posts

What the police at the Park can be
thinking OF in allowing a mob of hack
men with their vehicles to blockade the
street and gateway in front Of the en-
trance Is something that no person has
yet been able to explain. At the conclu-
sion OF the races it is almost impossible
Tor person to get through the crowd of
vehicles and bowling hackmen without
serious risk to his life. These men have
no rig bit to do this, and if the police were
to do their duty the whole mob would be
driven OFT TO the sides of the streets. If
half as much zeal were displayed by the
police III looking out for the safety of the
public as in trying to make little per-

would come nearer doing what they are

Preserve the Old Relics.

EDS. RECoRD-U UNION: The Historical
Exhibit at the State Fair is worthy of
preservation. The State owes a debt of
gratitude to the Hon. Antonio f. Coronel
and others who preserved the relics and
souvenirs of the early settlement of our
State. A hundred years from now, when
people will recognize the value of senti-
ment in molding character, million dol
lars would be gladly paid for such col.
lection. No State in the Union can show
such rich material, illustrative of past
civilization, civilization, however. as
President Cox in his address showed,
which has deeply affected the institutions
and religious character of the people of
the State.
l second his suggestion-that the ex-
hlbit should be owned by the State. 1t
ought to be preserved at the Capital of the
State, and additions should be continually
made. 1t will develop into a grand mu-
scum. The value Of the British Museum
is of incalculable value to the scholars
and writers of Great Britain, yet its be-
ginning was merely as a collection of Gu
riosities. The Legislature should pro-
vide for its purchase. Now is an oppor-
tunity for the sons and daughters of Cali
fornia to go to work. See every mem Der
of the Legislature who is elected this fall
and make him pledge himself to support
an appropriation for the purpose of es-
tablishing a museum.
Meanwhile l suggest that the Agricult-
ural Society prepare catalogue of the
articles in the exhibit, and print the same
in the next annual report. IT, will be USE
full for future reference. Respectfully.

27z Difference
The "Royal" the Strongest and
Purest Baking Powder.

Whether any other baking powder is equal to
"Royal," let the official reports decide When
the different powders were purchased on the open
market and examined by Prof. Chandler, of the
New-York Board of Health, the result showed that
Royal Baking Powder contained twenty-seven
per cent. greater strength than any other brand.
When compared in money value, this difference
would be as follows:
If one pound Of Royal Baking Powder sells
for 50 cents,
One pound of no other powder is worth over
SO cents.
If another baking powder is forced upon you
by the grocer in place of the Royal see that you
are charged the correspondingIy lower price.

The Fence Tax.

(By H. R. Fielding in Harrison Times.)
AS you said some time ago that
you would like to know what the
farmers of this county think of a
stock law that would render all
fencing unnecessary except what it
would take to keep stock inside
instead of outside, I thought wou d
inform you that my experience as
an honest and hornyhanded farm
er has confirmed the opinion which
l expressed -seveal times while /
an editor; and that is that such q
law lis very much to be desired,
especially by the farmers; for the
cost Of building and repairing
fencing is the heaviest tax they
have to pay, and it is to q great ex-
tent unnecessary. And I believe
that u large majority OF the farmers
are OF the same oplnionj if not, 1
ara sure they would be, if they
would only thinkabout the subject
q little.

Comparison Of the Wave and COrpuscu
lar TheOries-COntinued


We have only mentioned that
sound can not travel through solids
in the form of wave and will now
proceed to demonstrate that the as
sertion is fact. The first point to
notice is the comparison of the
waves of the ocean and those of the
air. A wave on the ocean is caused
by the lifting up Of a mass of water,
which causes corresponding de-
preston on each side. In the air
the waves can not be formed in this
manner as there is no surface above
which part of the atmosphere may
be lifted above. When this defect
was noticed tho supporters of the
wave theory, unwilling t" say that
they had accepted false theory, in,
stituted the supposition that tho air
wave alternately condensed
and rarely the air, condensation
and raretaction making one wave,
and that it was necessary for waves
to transmit sound through all sub
stances.
We would like to ask ifyou be-
Iieve that sound made at one end
OF large tree would throw the en-
tire mass into condensations asso-
ciated with their necessary rare
factions? We are confident you can
see that it can not be so. This ap-
plies with even greater effect to
rock and iron, rs they are dense1
and require greater mechanical
power TO throw their molecules in
to vibration. We assert that NO
well-ballanced mind will believe
that the particles of q large mass o.

But Lost in the Shuhe, However.
Our every ready detective,
Spencer J. Morris, was ON the alert
last Thursday night when Brink
Reagan thought to make one ofhis
evening visits to Wade & Morris
drugstore.
Mr.. Morris was secreted in the
store when about Il O'Clock Brink
effected his way int" the building
coming in at a window in ther rear
end; he was armed with two large
Jugs and several bottles. Mr.. Nor
ris took occasion to inquire of him
AS to his business in the store at
such late hour. Being SO COM
pletely caught, Reagan could do
nothing but make a confession, that
it was whiskey that he intended to
take. Mr.. Morris took him then
and there as his prisoner and guard
ed him until morning when he Turn
cd him over to Constable Har-
bert.
He plod guilty to burglary
before Justice Ramsey, and being
unable to give bond was started
for Jail at Berryvillc, but after dusk
about tour miles this side, he jump

cape.
