KINGSLEY ART CLUB.
Its Reception and Exhibition Closed
on Saturday.

on Saturday.
The Kingsley Art Clubs exhibition on
Saturday afternoon was well attended.
showing the interest which has been
awakened among art-loving and culti-
waited people in this city by the ladies
composing the club.
Those who have seen only the coarse
work of the common wood engraving of
everyday use received a revelation of
unsuspected capabilities in the art when
they examine the array of beautiful en-
cravings arranged around the sides of the
artlstlcally-decora room.
mrs. ComStock was present, and those
VINO had the pleasure of making her ac-
quaintance will not soon forget her. The
fascination of her manner, and the
entire absence of self-consciousness with
which she talks of her art and her work,
causes her auditors to wonder how it
happened that they had never become
enthusiasts on the subject themselves.
her work is among the finest shown,
ana the children OF the State will soon
become familiar with it in one of its
forms in the new book on entomology,
by her husband, which will be used in
the schools. Could they witness the
marvellous lines which delineate on the
plock, the feathers and hairs of the but
terHy's wing, it would be to them a
marvel never to be forgotten. Two little
gems of poetic sentiment combined with
nigh art in execution are by Mrs. Com
stock, and it is to be hoped that one of
them Will adorn as frontispiece the new
work.
Mrs. Comstock's lecture in the evening
was as full of interest as that of Friday,
ana was listened to by quite large audi
ence. The serving of refreshments con-
cluded the very interesting two days re-
ceptlon and exhibition by the Kingsley

Two Smooth Jobs Effected by a Gang
of Thieves.
About II O'Clock Saturday night three
young men entered Griffin's variety
store, at 6O3 K street, just as the proprietor
was preparing to close for the night.
One of the trio asked to look at some
baskets in the back part of the store, and
Mr.. Griffin showed him number. He
was particularly hard to suit, however,
and shortly afterward he and his COM
panlons left without making purchase.
After they had left the store the proprie-
tor found that his cash drawer had been
robbed OF the days receipts, with the ex-
ceptlon of few dimes and quarters.
BY THE SAME GANG.
About $50 o'clock the same evening
two young fellows called at Rosenfeldts $
cigar store on street, near Third, and
accomplished similar theft.
The two asked for cigars, and were
about to take them when one rushed out,
quickly followed by the other, as though
something had occurred on the street.
The proprietor also rushed out, and out
side one of the men engaged him in con-
versation and diverted his attention for
some little time, while the second sharper
was absent.
When Rosenfeldt re-entered his store
he found that his money drawer with its
contents, about $50, was gone.
The police have been furnished with a
partial description of the thieves.

ABLE AND VIGOROUS"
well Conducted, and None More Re-
liable In NayyS


From the Marysville Democratl
Yesterday the Sacramento RECORD
UNION entered on a new year of its
useful existence, having passed its forty
second birthday. There are few journals
in California as well conducted in all de-
partments, and none more reliable in
general news. The telegraph service re-
ceiyed by it is of the latest and best, and
sufficiently condensed to make it COM
prehensive. Its editorials are able and
vigorous, covering wide scope and treat
ing of the live questions and events of the
day. There is but one fault to find with
the RECoRD-UNIoN, and that is, it de-
votes little too much space to a defense
of the Southern Pacific Railway and its
methods, but we wish it continued pros

RABBIT DRIVES

WO OF lnem Helu Near the Town OF
Franklin Yesterday.
There was great sport at the rabbit
drive near Franklin yesterday. Between
$50 and 200 persons participated in the
drives, of which there were two. The
first was over some fields about mile
south of the town, and in the afternoon
another took place on the old Whitcomb
ranch.
The weather was disagreeable, owing
to the cold north wind that prevailed, but
otherwise the affair was success. Be-
tween 400 and 500 hares were killed in the
two drives, which ought to have de-
pressing effect on the price of tamales
during the week.
1t is said that another drive will take
place next Sunday. Down in the San
Joaquin Valley. where jack-rabbits are
the principal crop raised. these drives
frequently result in the Staying of several
thousand. The pests are driven to the
