COOPERATION ASKED

The Mayors Request to Citizens to
Help Accommodate Visitors.
Mayor Comstock makes the following
appeal to citizens to assist the Committee
on Lodgings in providing accommoda-
tons for the many thousand visitors who
will visit the city during the State Fair:
The State Agricultural Society, with
the aid of the Industrial Association of
Sacramento, has used extraordinary
efforts to secure for the coming State
Fair the largest and best display ever ex-
hibited.
1.-The Southern Pacific Company, ap-
preciatlng these efforts, has agreed to
carry passengers from all points on it's
lines 10 sacramento at half rates, or one
fare for the round trip, which will insure
a very large attendance.
SIN order that these visitors NAV be
properly cared for, it will be necessary
for our citizens TO open their dwellings.
and, so far as possible, assist the Citizens
Committee on Lodgings in securing ac-
Communications at reasonable rates.
Believing that every citizen is inter-
ested in this matter, all households hay-
ing unoccupied rooms are requested to
register the same with W. B. Maydwell,
the Secretary, who may be found daily
at go X street until Saturday, September
Sd. All registrations will be made free of
charge.

SOUTHERN ASSESSMENTS

Something Concerning Those of Los
Angeles and Orange Counties.
Yesterday morning Orange County's
Assessor, Jacob Ross, and Supervisor S.
Armour were before the State Board of
Equalization. The usual representations
were made and questions answered rela-
tive to the assessed valuations of prop
erty in that county. There were appar-
entity not many irregularities in the
Assessors estimates, as the afternoon
was given to hearing Los Angeles County.
Los Angeles was represented by lis
Assessor, Gray, and Supervisors 4. r.
Davis, H. G. Hubbard and S. NJ. Perry
Discussion of land valuations took up the
afternoon, and various knotty points as
to the judicial assessment of land set out
TO young trees.
In some cases the Assessor THOUGHT the
land was not increased in value until the
trees were several years old. while again
1t was made more valuable as soon as
they were set out.
1t appeared from the Assessors returns
that Los Angeles has fallen off in the
past year or lost in valuation of CITY
realty, while improvements thereupon
have increased. Outside improvements
have also been reduced, and these things
were explained by various conditions
obtaining.
The determination Of the board as to
the proposed elevation of values in the
two counties mentioned will not be
made known for several days.

BEWARE OF THE GATOR.
An 0roville Miss Mourns the Loss OF
an Amphibian Pet.
At Last Accounts the Crocodile Was
Heading This Way With Fish
erman In Tow.

A prominent attache of the law de-
partment of the State Government
is responsible for the statement that
not long since a friend of Miss Belle
st. Sure of 0roville sent her from st.
Louis a present of considerable conse-
quence. When it came it was in cage
about the size of those in vogue with
menageries, and upon being opened up
it proved to be an alligator from the
mighty Mississippi, in apparent good
health and pretty fully developed.
The saurian was chiefly remarkable
for his size, being about eleven feet IN
length; for his open countenance (which
opened like trap-door to a CELLAR, for
his callous and blase disposition, and for
the readiness with which he entertained
the dogs, cats and other domestic fowls
about the neighborhood, which wandered
into his interior in casual but effective
way, and stayed there.
After the specimen CrocodiLuS JUclUS
had been i'll Oroville for awhile, and had

community, he chewed the legs off the

| ing native of the Mississippi was not
found.
Nothing was heard Of him until a fish
erman at Knights Landing came home
one evening, on one leg, and explained
in frantic language that he had seen his
other leg go sailing down the Sacramento
River wrong-end-up, and finally disap-
pear entirely. He Thought il was the seG
serpent that got it, but later on an Ala
bamian found gator tracks in the mud
near where the fisherman met with his
alleged adventure.
Last night it was rumored that Matt
McManus had caught q rhinoceros in 9
seine up the river, Dut whatever it was il
swallowed about forty fathoms OF the net
sinkers, floats and all, and went joyfully
on Its way.
1t was probably Miss St. Sure's ALI,

Whether or not Matt went with the net
is not known, but it is thought he holds
one end of it.
The gator is evidently headed down
stream, and expects to return to ST. Louis
via Cape Horn. Small boys should
either refrain from swimming in the
Sacramento until the alligator has been
heard from farther OFF, or else load them.

FAKIR WOMEN

A Scheme to Force a Poor Article of
Baking Powder Upon the Market.
A gang of women and man struck the
town recently in the interest of a certain
baking powder company. Their meth
DDS are to push their way into the kitch-
ems and pretend TO show the housewife
how to test ~ baking powder; they will
find all kinds Of injurious ingredients in
any powder except their own. In sew
eral places women working the same

They are fakirs and pests to the kitchen.

get their hands on. Look. out for them

The Comforting Fan Motor.

Among the various contrivances Of
later years tending to render life worth
living during the heated term, the ubiqui-
tous little electric fan motor certainly
holds no inconsiderable place. A few
dollars expended for the plant, and one
cent per hour more or less for the electric
power to operate it, is surely not an ex-
travagant outlay for the amount of solid
comfort which one receives as qqIid pro
geo, as he tolls at his desk during the
breathless midsummer days. The latest
Improvement in this line is motor which
has an additional slow horizontal rota-
ton upon its standard, whereby the
breeze of the fan is impartially distributed

The Rosebud Withers and Dies-Pro-

The famous Rosebud Saloon was in
darkness last night, and it's forced effort
TO keep open without selling Intoxicating
drinks seems to have been failure.
Since Ed. Lucey, the proprietor of the
place, was convicted of selling LIQUOR
without license, Captain Bradley
has maintained a close watch on the
place and this is presumably the reason
that the establishment has been unable
to maintain itself.
The proprietors of a K-street resort have
extended the partition which separates
the private rooms from the bar snug up
to the ceiling. 1t is pretty well known
that hokey-pokey game is constantly
running there, and the partition is, per-
haps, a sort of barricade against antici-
pated raids of the officers.
