surname of John White. Magistrate
Donnelly laughed, as he asked:
"Well, White, what black crime are

White shut1ied his big feet uneasily,
and officer Nevins responded:
''Stealin' chickens, your honor. At
least he didn't get no chickens; but he
tried hard enough"

NO industry has shown such revolution
and progress as that of the meat trade
and all who have given it any attention
Will agree III saying that to no other con-
Germ in the city is the public more in
debted for It's progress than Clauss 81
Kraus, the well-knoWn butchers, located
at the corner of Seventeenth and streets.
| Want OF space is all that prevents giving
q detailed history Of this establishment,
which could not fail to interest all who
appreciate the advantages which the COM
munity at large derive from such enter
prise, and Sacramento is indeed fortunate
| to have within her borders the organiza-
| ton OF such firm. Every modern APP
pliance for the furtherance of a perfect
market is in vogue. The fixtures are Of
| the very latest and improved pattern, and
III point OF OrnamentatiOn and substantial
usage it is beyond comparison with other
markets. Everything connected with the
different processes and landings is the
very acme of cleanliness, and trial will
demonstrate that the very best meat sold
in this city is by Clauss Il Kraus.
Since the incipiency of this prosperous
market, it has been customary to make
display at Christmas time, and this year
is no exception to the rule, for an inspec-
ton Will enllghten the visitor to an al
most thorough knowledge OF their pro-
gressIVe strides. This display is one of
their best efforts, and is far superior to
that conceived for any other market in
the city. The exhibit of fine dressed
meats predominant, but will not deter the
view of most magnificent selection of
sausages, lard, headcheese, ETC., made un-
der the supervision of Conrad Wising.
assisted by George Goslick. The decora-
tons generally could not be placed to bet
ter advantage, and reflect great credit upon
the Originators. Clauss * Kraus deserve
the patronage already bestowed. and
merit much more. Both are conscienti-
Gus and thorough business men, and
their reward has been attained by energy

RAIN IN TORRENTS.
A Heavy Gale Accompanied the Down
pour in the Sierras.
Snow Was Looked for Last Night, But
it Came Not-BarwIck's
Storm Ideas.

Dispatches received at railroad head
quarters up to midnight last night report
one of the heaviest transforms in the ST.
ezra Nevada Mountains ever known.
Snow fell at various points on "the
hill' along the route of the Central Pa
cidc for awhile during the forenoon, but
soon ceased as the temperature grew
warmer and gave way to heavy rain.
The mountains were heavily coated with
snow from the cold storm Of the previous
night, but the rain melted it rapidly and
in short time innumerable rivulets APP
peared and went tum bling down through
the canyons and into the valleys below.
The rainstorm increased in severity as
the day progressed and at nightfaIl was
accompanied by heavy wind-a verita-
BILE gale in some of the most exposed
places.
The continued fall of rain was some
thing of a surprise to the railroad officials.
as they had been expecting another cold
snap and heavy snowstorm. At last &C
counts last night no washOuts had oc-
Cured along the Central Pacific and
trouble would be experienced before
morning.
The westbound overland, which should
have arrived here at $40 P. NJ, was nearly
five hours late, but this was due to a de-
lay on the Union Pacific, and not to the
storm.
Truckee reported Just before midnight
that it had been raining and blowing all
afternoon and there were no indications
of abatement.
At Blue Canyon it was raining "pitch-
forks" and veritable gale was blowing.
Cisco reported a heavy rain and wind,
and that rain had been pouring in torrents
all afternoon and night.
At the Summit rain was also reported
and heavy south wind. The barometer
stood at 22.60. No snow.
At Colfax and down to Auburn it was
also raining hard.
The Oregon express, which should ar
rive here at 4:l5 tins morning, is eleven
hours late, owing to washouts and severe
storms in Oregon.

A Low BAROMETER.

What Weather Bureau Director Bar
wick says of the Storm.
The Weather Bureau reports show the
rainfall during the "A hours ending at )
o'clock last evening to have been 80 of an
inch, making for the storm 81 of an inch,
for the month. $50 inches, and for the
season, 9.9S inches, as against PIP inches
to an equal date last year.
The highest and lowest temperatures
yesterday were co. and SO, with high
sOutherly winds ranging from q to 81
miles per hour, reaching a maximum We
locitv Of 40 miles per hour on several oc-
casions, and an extreme velocity of 80
miles per hour.
THE BAROMETER AWAY DOWN.
The barometrical readings at 5 A. NJ. and
) P. NJ. were Z9.gl and 29.6S inches show
ing quite rapid fall in that instrument
during the y hours, viz: % Of an inch.
It is no wonder the wind bowls and
twists or changes its direction from south
west to southeast, which, to even it up,
must be called a southerly wind. When
heavy and steady rainfall begins no
doubt the wind will decrease in velocity
The lowest barometer during the mem
orabIe and phenomenal storm from the
9th to the 30th OF November last was
29.64 inches. at the beginning of the
storm on the 9th, after which time it
continued to fluctuate, but kept going
down until the goth, when it reached
%. 50 inches, which was the day that gave
so much excessive precipitation in
twenty-fOur consecutive hours all over
the State, from Del NOrte County on the
north to Los Angeles on the south.
THE PRESENT STORM.
The barometer during the present
storm read 29.6S inches at P. NJ. yester-
day. and is still on the downward road
toward the point that brings high wind
and heavy precipitation.
The storms temperature has knocked
the frost temperature into a cooked hat,
and warm weather will now prevail until
the winding up Of this storm; for when
the southwest quadrant of the storm CEN
ter passes over US it will leave a cool
wave to replace the present warm one.
The highest and lowest temperatures
one year ago yesterday were 5fo and 430,
with trace OF rain, and one year ago to-
day 49, and $50.

A man named Fred. Miller complained
TO the police yesterday that he had paid
$40 at Ike Zemansky's pawn-shop for an
alleged '.solid gold watch" which some
body subsequently told him was worth
but a dollar. He wanted the proprietor
OF the place arrested.

Cravens Yesterday and requested him to
commit her l3-year-old son to the Whit
tier School, as he had become TO way
ward to be controlled by her. As Judge
Cravens could not do so without having
the boy before him on a charge OF some
kind, he referred Mrs. Barry to one OF

HOW to Clam Rronzes.

A lady who has had some experience in
cleaning ornamental articles in bronze
Vinegar or water takes the bronze off if
imitation, and affects the gloss of real
bronze. The safest thing is pure salad oil,
lightly rubbed on (the dust being all re-
moved first, then rubbed off with soft
cloth, and afterward polished with a
chamOis. Another way is to plunge the
object in boiling soapsuds, then in pure
boiling water Atterward expose the
article to the air, and when it is dry rub
it very lightly with leather on which a
little whiting has been rubbed. 1 believe
rinsing the articles in beer, after having
washed them in soap and water, is very
good. The beer should not be wiped of,
but allowed to dry on in warm place.
But I prefer the salad Oil to any other APP

IMPORTED nEAnaEAIS.

CHICAGO, April 2l-Atter an evening OF
the widest excitement and commotion a
detail of police WAS left on guard at the
| shelter house of the Society for the aid OF
leading up to the commotion have TO 90
with the work of the society, and theiI
elimination in what amounted to riot
was in spite of all the officers in charge of
the place could do. Twenty-Five or thirty
Russian refugees, who have Deen charlta-
bly, housed, fed and cared for for the past
four weeks, insisted upon a continuance
of these privileges.
Having extended to these persons every
inducement and opportunity to make a
living for themselves, the management
had decided that they must abandon
their free quarters and make room for
new arrivals. This they refused to do,
and this morning the refractory refugees
were elected. Shortly afterward most Of
them returned and demanded reinstate-
ment. \ denial increased their persis-
tence, and their clamoring increased until
this afternoon when the police were call
ed. Before the officers could arrive an
attack was made both on the front and back
doors of the shelter the latter being torn
off its hinges. Upon the arrival OF the
officers quiet was soon restored.
This evening, upon the demand of the
refugees that they be given shelter for the
night being refused, an instantaneous at
tack was made by the mob. Again the
police were called and the situation
patiently explained by interpreters to
those who melted the riot. They immedi-
ateiy set mp a cry that they were sick This
had no effect, and after an hours wrang-
ling the discontented Russians were forced
to move away. They threatened to return,
however, and detail of police remains on
guard tonight.
