WORLDS FAIR TALK.

The Board of Supervisors concluded it's
March session Saturday.
W. ii. Rich was appointed Constable
for Oak Park.
The board passed a resolution calling
an election for the purpose of selecting
Trustees for Reclamation District, No.
407, Andrus Island. The election will be
held at Isleton, April 10Th
The matter of organizing District
Worlds Fair Associations came up again,
and there was another warm discussion
of it. Mr.. Jenkins moved for the ap-
pointment of +. Drescher, DR.. Reece and
w. w. Greer as delegates to the proposed
convention of northern counties to be
held in this city next Saturday. Bates
was not opposed to appointing delegates,
but he thought that ut least two of them
should come from the city; beside this,
he wanted to go on record as being on
posed to spending a cent of the county's
money for advertising the county. After
considerable debate Jenkins motion was
carried.
The insurance policies on the county
property being near expiration the cues
ton arose as to the amount advisable to
carry for the next year. 1t was discov-
cred that during the last year there was
S35, COO insurance on the hospital Upon
motion Of Black the Chairman of the IN
surance Committee was directed to place
insurance on the courthouse not less than
$4,000 and on the hospital not less than
900 nor more than $4,000.
On motion of Mr.. Greer il was decided
to purchase gasoline engine and centri-
fugal pump for the irrigating works at
the County Hospital. The present sys-
tenn of pumping was found too expen-
sive.
Lately much trouble has been caused
by plats of land, laid out into blocks and
lots with streets and alleys and filed in
the Recorders office, being withdrawn
from sale after several parcels Of the land
have been sold. In such cases the agents
and owners have sought TO close the
streets, and the purchasers have appealed
to the Board of Supervisors to have
streets declared open. In view of this
Chairman Greer offered a resolution,
which passed, declaring all streets and
alleys thus laid out public property ana
by the resolution dedicared as public
highways.
The matter of purchasing election
booths for use in the county precincts was
placed in the hands OF a committee.

Thousands of Recreation and Pleasure
Seekers Out Yesterday.
Oak Park Was Literally Alive With
Ihem-How They Amused Them
selves = The Boats.

1t seemed as if all Sacramento turned
out yesterday to take advantage of the
tine weather and have an outing.
While many took teams and drove out
into the country, and others hied them
selves to the river, the great majority of
them headed for Oak Park. Despite the
increased facilities of the electric car line,
and the fact that every available car had
been pressed into service, the line was
taxed to its utmost capacity in accommo-
dating the hundreds that wanted to go to
the park.
Out at the park all was life and merri-
ment. Crowds strolled off into the fields
picking wild flowers, others picked out
shady hooks under the trees for little
picnic, and others took in the many
amusements afforded in the park proper.
The flying horses did land-office busi-
ness all day, as did the serpentine lake
boats. The latter proved quite a novelty
and bids fair to become quite popular, al
though the boats do not go fast enough to
suit many. The refreshment stand was
crowded all day. 1t was quite dark when
the bulk of the crowd lett

where no admission fee is charged, it is
quite difficult to keep out the gang of
young toughs with which Sacramento rs
blessed. But it would not be difficult to
make an example of several of them, and
thus teach the others to behave them
selves. Yesterday they took a special de-
light in throwing rocks and chunks of
dirt at the occupants of the boats, and
once came near upsetting one of the floats
which carried a number of small chill
dren. They made themselves obnoxious
to those who sought pleasure in various
other ways. too, and should be stopped.
The only accident that happened during
the day was about & o'c ocll, when a
young man attempted to Jump from one
electric car TO another which was moving
IN an opposite direction. He was ammed
between the two SO forcibly as TO fracture
the bones of one of his shoulders. He
was brought into town and attended by a
physician. 1t was a miracle that there
were not other and more serious acci-
dents, judging from the way in which
people pulled and hauled each other
about in trying to secure seats and stand
ing room on the cars. But when the
company gets more cars on the several
routes, as the managers say they will

ing, even if Sacramento turns out for re-

but as the young man was wrapped IN

the boat was half filled with water, He
saw his danger and called to the others.
They started to pull toward him. but

that the young man gave up hope of their
reaching him in time, and being a good
swimmer sprang into the water and
struck ont for the other boat.

team, the score at the close of the game
standing to ?. At the close of the sixth
inning but one tally had been made.
Several fine plays were made during
the game and some heavy batting was
done.
Flaherty, in the sixth inning, hit to
left, bringing in two men, but was put
out at first in trying to steal second. In
the same inning, with three men on
bases, Sunday was struck with the ball
and one run was thus scored.
McGuirk sent the ball to the fence at
the extreme right in the sixth inning, but
was put out at second. Roberts followed
shortly after with hit to the right field,
making the third base easily, while other
good batting was done.
Both teams seemed in good condition
and played well, although it could be
seen they were not working hard. A
very small crowd witnessed the game,
though the day was very fine.

The young man Eric Olsen, who dis
charged his pistol on the street the
other night, pleaded on Saturday that he
was drunk, but knew of no other reason
for not having Judgment pronounced
against him. Judge Cravens told him
that the plea of drunkenness was becom-
ing somewhat monotonous in his court.
inasmuch as large per cent. of the minor
crimes were alleged to have been COM
mitted while the parties were drunk.
The Judge wished him to understand
that it was not an excuse. and said that
when Eric returned to his friends he
could tell them the cost of discharging
firearms in Sacramento. He then sem
fenced Olsen 10 thirty days Imprisonment

of that amount in the hands of the Off

of this arrangement would come to pass.

Just how true this is it is impossible to

was one, Is mystery.
