Rev. A. c. Herrick officiated at the
funeral of the late John Lauchlan on
Saturday, and the pall-bearers were

The Placerville Democrat remarks
'When city, with cheerfulness that is
idiotic, supports more than twenty dead
falls, but kicks at small tax for high
school, it is liable to smother in it's own
filth" This condition of things may
also account for the failure of many
places that are favored by nature to grow
and keep up with the procession.

AMUSEMENTS

At the Metropolitan Theater this and
tomorrow evening Minnie Seligman Cut
ting will appear in Gunter's dramatiza-
ton of Colonel r. IL. Savage's story, My
Official Wife," The play had pronounced
success in San Francisco, as at the East,
but it was not more commended than the
art of the star, Mrs. Seligman Cutting.
The San Francisco Chronicle said of the
piece and the actress: 1.-The interest cen
tered in Mrs. Seligman Cutting was fully
Justified, and, taxing her purely as an
actress, decidedly increased by her per-
formance. My Official Wife is a melo-
drama. There is no rest for either actor
or audience, and the arrangement is so
sharp and rapid that the development of
the plot is a series of exciting bursts,
sometimes expected, sometimes surpris-
ing. 1t is thoroughly theatrical, meant
to move certain emotions, and doing it by
flashes, so to speak. One loses sight of
characters in incidents and exciting stu
atlOnS, and does not get time to Syma-
thiZe with anybody until the woman is
dead and the curtain falls. Mrs. Selig-
man Cutting Is very exceptional actress.
In this melodrama though a turgid char
acter, she touches all points from joyous
ness to intense vindictive hatred with re-
markable certainty. The part is very
difficult one, and if her face and voice
were not mobile to an extraordinary de-
gree it would be entirely ineffective. She
has great variety in her. Her smile is
very bright, her vlndictive hate eX-
tremely deep, her love is very unaffected
and she has strong magnetism. If she
has crudities they can be accounted for
by the character, for she seems capable of
sustaining any mood. Her experience
appears TO have been mainly in melo-
drama, but it is not too much to say that
her possibilities are for greater work in
the strong society drama. She suggests
Laura Don in many ways, and for such
roles as adventuresseS she Is better
equipped than any woman who has ap-
peared of late years" Mr.. Cutting, who
appears in a leading part, is known as
very wealthy New York society man,
who has stepped from the amateur to the
legitimate stage to be with his wife and to
crafty a natural taste for the drama. The
support is represented as good, and the
management is under the experienced
judgment of Frank w. Sanger, whom we
do not recall as eyer being related to any
dramatic company of an inferior charac-
ter.
The postponed party of Sacramento
Council, No. %, Chosen Friends, will take

HUMANE SOCIETY.

a Directors Notwithstanding for
the Annual Meeting-Reports.
The Directors of the Sacramento County
Humane Society met Saturday evening
at the office of the Secretary, w. D. Law
ton, Vice-President r. c. Irvine presid-
ing.
The following new members were
elected, aud the first five certified to the
Superior Court for confirmation as Off
GERS: Add. c. Hinkson. John F. Bronner,
Louis Stein, Adolph Meyer, w. T. Calder
wood and Mrs. William Beck man.
The annual meeting was fixed for 1880
p. N. January 9, 1898, at the Courthouse,
and Nice-President Irvine was appointed
TO prepare the Directors report to the
stockholders. The Secretary was in
structed to serve personal notice of the
meeting and to advertise it in addition,
and TO invite all ladies and gentlemen
feeling an interest in the work to attend.
The Secretary submitted his report,
from which 1t appeared that the society
had IN the year reported to it l9l cases, all
but three or four of which had been at
tended to without criminal prosecution.
de reported that the ordinance fixing the
SIZE OF coops for transportation of fowls
had been passed and is now very gener-
ally obeyed. That the society had almost
wholly stopped the cruel practices of
prior time in transportation of live calves
and swine. That a new poundmaster
had been secured and now impounded
dogs are killed by drowning, instead of
beating them to death, and that the
pound is kept well supplied with food for
detained animals. That the killing of
small birds, forbidden by law, had Very
largely ceased. That the driving of lame
and broken-down horses and horses with
sore shoulders had been stopped, cases of
violation being now rare. That but one
case had been prosecuted in which the
society had received the fine $40. That
there are now over thirty citizens acting
as officers of the society and wearing
FINALLY, that throughout the city
and the county the good effect of
the existence of the society was
felt and confessed, and that on all sides
the people admitted that the influence of
the society, little as it had done, was per-
ceptible and most beneficial. Overdriv-
ing of animals had been so followed I'D
and punished that now cases are rare.
That, with single exception, the livery
men give the society support and encour-
agement, and nearly all OF them are mem
bers and special officers.
There were several other interesting
facts reported by the Secretary and Vice
President, all ofwhich are to be embodied
in the annual report to the stock holders.
The board acknowledged the cordial
cooperation of the police force with its
work. 1t passed a resolution that here
after to compensate officers and others for
time and trouble taken, the Secretary, in
his discretion, have authority to pay to
any person causing arrest and conviction
for inhumanity sum not to exceed one
half Of the fine imposed and collected;
the Secretary to judge for the society
when such payment would be proper.

The upper wall of the old seminary on
the hill was blown in during the storm of
last week. The floors have fallen in and
nearly all the wood work in the building
is rotten. The last mishap has settled
the fate of the old school. 1t is positively
dangerous and its owners could make
money out of it by throwing it down and
selling the material of which it is made.
1t is never visited by human beings, but
horses and cattle take shelter there and
are liable to be hurt. Its existence is
nearly ended and it will soon be thing
of the past.
Major Krusie, the chief engineer of the
bridge company, returned here on Tues
day from San Francisco, where he had
been for the purpose of ordering the
necessary material for use in the con-
struction of the span and new false work
of the steel bridge. The work is to be
pushed ahead as rapidly as possible. The
men have been engaged in recovering
some of the steel that fell in the river this
week. The old piers that were used to
support the railroad track of years ago
were encircled with ropes and used to
pull against and the iron snaked out of
the river. Next Monday or Tuesday
operations will probably be commenced
in earnest.

CRITTENTON UNION MEETINGS.

Large Audiences.

The Evangelist Continues to Address
Large Audiences.
Two large meetings were addressed by
Evangelist Crittenton yesterday. In the
afternoon at 8 O'Clock meeting for young
people was held at the Congregational
Church, at which about eight hundred
young people were present.
Mr.. Crittenton took for his text Eccl.
xii, l: Remember now thy Creator In
the days of thy YOUTH In his winnine
manner, so peculiar to all his work, he
put before the young people the import
ance of right start in life, in order to
succeed in any department of life's work
but especially for the preparation for the
life to come.
Mr.. Crittenton'S sermon was liberally
interspersed with passages of Scripture.
which he quotes as literally from mem
ory as many read from the book itself
This, with the use of touching anecdotes
that have come under his personal OBJ
servation, give him marked power over
his audiences.
At the close of his sermon over a score
rose on the invitation TO start out for
Christian lives.
At 1:3O in the evening large audience
that filled the Congregational Church to
overtlowing greeted the evangelist. An
mon, after which Rev. Mr.. Stevenson
made the announcements for the weeks
meetings, and stated that although Mr..
Crittenton came without any expense.
and even paid his own hotel bill, vet the
union would be under some expense for
printing, etc, to which he asked the
audience to contribute, and liberal col
lection was taken.
Mr.. Crittenton took for his text Daniel
xii, l3: "Go thou thy way till the end
be-" and proceeded to draw clear CON
trast between the ways of those who live
entirely for themselves and those who
live for Christ and humanity. He also
read the dying words OF many noted
people, Christian and infidel These
dying testimonies made a deep impress
sion on the listeners, and undoubtedly
helped some of those to decision that
atterward decided to become Christians.
The entire meeting was Solemnly i'm
pressive, and at the close quite a number
signed cards and signitied their intention
of leading better lives.
1t has been decided to hold the meet
ings this week in one place, instead of
going from church to church, as last
week. They will be held this week on
afternoons and evenings, with the Pres
byterian Church held in reserve for over
flow meetings.
The meetings are growing daily in
interest and much is expected from them,

They Rowed Up the River Yesterday,
and Luckily Got Back Again.
A couple of ambitious but inexperi-
enced young men, both of whom are
more active and prepossessing while
ashore, chartered rowboat belonging to
the Undine Club and went upward
against the flood yesterday.
Fortune often 1avors the unsophisti-
Gated. and the two nautically-inclined
oar-dem oralizers encountered a couple of
young ladies, who promptly accepted an
invitation to ride DER the surging billows,
as the youung men looked capable Of
handling the boat.
The party set out and had a stormy
passage up the raging Sacramento, as far
as Pelican Point, after very Industrious
struggle with wind and current-and the
oars.
On the trip one oar was lost, another
broken, and a collision with a steamer so
narrowly averted that the ladies were
speechless with fright for four or five
minutes.
Alter several times narrowly missing
entanglements in the inundated trees
along the river, the bold gondoliers finally
fioated back to the boat-house and escaped
only half drowned, but entirely satisfied.

Nor let him, with little prudence, show less
love Tor the children that attend the public
schools Than for those that attend the paro-
chlai; on the contrary stronger marks of low
ing sollcitude are TO be shown them; the sun

De devoted TO them in special manner, and
70 cultivate this field let the pastor call to his
alQ othef priests, and even suitable members
OF TIE laity, in order that what is supremely
necessary be wanting TO no child.
FOR the standing and growth Of Catholic
schools II seems that care should be taken that
the teachers prove themselves qualified, not
only by previous examination before the
Diocesan Board, and by a certificate or di-
ploma received from it, but also by
having teachers diploma from the School
Board of the State, awarded after sue
cessful examination. This is urged nrstr
so as to not appear regardless, without
reason, of what public authority requires
for teaching; secondly, a better opinion
OF Catholic schools will be created; thirdly,
greater assurance will be given to parents that
in Catholic schools there is no deficiency TO
render them inferior to public schools; that
on Tue contrary, everything is done TO make
Catnolc schools equal to public schools or
even superior.
y PREPARATORY STAGE.
Fourthly, and lastly, we think that this
plan would prepare the way for the State TO
see along with the recognized and tested fit
ness OF the teachers, that the laws are OBJ
served IN all matters pertaining to the arts
ana sciences, to method and pedagogicS and
10 whatever is ordinarily required 10 promote
the stability and usefulness of the schools. 1t
Is necessary that what are called normal
schools should reach such efficiency in pre-
pairing teachers of letters, arts ana sciences
that their graduates shall not fail to obtain
the diploma OF the State.
For the sake of the Catholic cause let there
be among laymen a growing rivalry to take
The diploma doctorate, so that, possessed OF
the knowledge and qualifications requisite for
teaching. they may compete for and honora-
ply obtain positions in the public gymnasia,
lNceumS and scientific institutions.
The knowledge of truth of every kind;
straightforward justice, united with charity:
the eftulgence and appreciation of the liberal
arts-these are the bulwarks OF the church.
All the above was read and considered
in the meeting of the Archbishops, the
difficulties answered and the requisite
alterations made November II, 1892.

Downfall of a Young Man of Brilliant
Attachments.
A little over year ago there came to
this city young man named DR.. Wood
ruff, under engagement to J. B. Haggiu
of the Rancho del Paso breeding farm.
DIR. Woodruff was a graduate of a veter-
mary college and young man of un-
common ability. Occasionally he came
into the city, and although often under
the influence of liquor at such times, il
was readily seen that he was person of
culture and gentlemanly traits. A Ken
lucky paper of recent date says of him:
DR. Woodruff, the welI-known vet
erinary surgeon, is back from j. b. Hag-
gins ranch in California, where he has
held lucrative position for year. The
unfortunate young man is a native of
England and came to Kentucky some
years ago. He was talented, and soon
worked up large practice. Then drink
brought him to the gutter, and there
were few days that his name did not ap-
pear on the docket of the Recorders
Court. His friends secured position for
him year ago on Mr.. Haggin's farm at
