A Good Tooth Powder.

One cannot always have white teeth,
but they can be kept clean and free
from impurities and should be cleaned
after each meal. An excellent recipe
for harmless powder to be made at
home is the following: Two ounces OF
prepared chalk, OF. of pulverized
white CASTLE soap, 2 OF. of powdered
orris root, 2 tablespoonful of pow
dered sugar, few drops of oil OF
wintergreen added as favoring.
A powder of this kind can be used
with safety twice each day. Try it,
it costs but little and will prove satisfac,
tory.

TOUCH YOUNGSTERS

The Three Little Thieves Who Have
Been Raiding Stores.
The three small but very ''tough'' boys,
Robert Farrell, George Grassell and Chas.
johnson, arrested in a caboose-car on
Thursday morning, where they had a
varied collection of plumber stolen from
various stores, have proved about as
troublesome prisoners as have been in
the City Jail for some time.
They keep the Jailer busy, by first one
ruse and then another, and when thew
cannot attract his nolice they perch in the
grated windows of the cell, where thew
shout all the vile language they can
muster at passers-by. They have been
in the "hobo'' cell. and yesterday thew
gathered ali the hats OF the other inmates
and endeavored to make fire of them.
In the afternoon, Grassell, the Young
est of the trio, and who is about eight
years OF age, apparently, set ire to a
broom, and succeeded in creating an
alarm. Jailer McManus then placed him
in dark cell by himself, as punishment.
and ne cried for an hour, making fuss
enough for half dozen small boys.
Young as they are, it seems that even
the State Prison discipline might benefit
them, for they profit by no leniency.
Yesterday John McMorry, the grocery
man, swore to complaints charging the
boys with burglarizing his store on
Wednesday night.

TIE FOOTBALLERO.
Great Preparations for TO-Day's Big
Game Here.
The Athletics Against the Oaklapds
Both Teams Are in
for Sport.

Manager Cole of the Athletic Club foot
ball team desires the announcement
made that the game to-day between his
club and the Oakland Tennis Club will
take place, rain or shine. Both teams
propose to play football despite the
weather, but the hope is entertained,
however, that the weather will permit a
good exhibition. The Athletic Club
members have gone through some hard
practice in preparing for the contest to-
day, and although their opponents are
formidable team of "kickers" and
''tacklers," the Sacramento boys hope to
give them an interesting time for an
hour and a half. The game will COM
mence at 2:30 P. ~, and good crowd
will probably be present to encourage
the players.
The Sacramento Athletic Club has
adopted the following yell, which will
be heard at to-day'S game: "Rahi Rah
Rah! SAC! Vive la! Sa-cra- mentor'
The visiting team viii arrive at noon,
and be conveyed to their headquarters at

The AMIGO Club is making great prepa-
rations for its game with the eleven from
Berkeley State University on Washing
toms Birthday, ana it is ex pected that one
of the largest crowds that has ever
gathered i'll Snowflake Park will be
present. a special rate has been secured
on the railroad from Berkeley and Oak
land to Sacramento, and all desiring to
come up on that day may do so and re-
turn for So 35. Manager II. H. Nc
Laughry of the Berkeley team writes that
large number of students will accom-
pany the team, beside many others who
will take advantage of the low rate. The
elegant Berkeley banners will no doubt
be brought up for the occasion, and there
will be no end to the blue and gold bunt-
ing and the sky-blue colors of the
AMIGO Club. The latter team will carry
an elegant banner, now being made for
presentation to the club. 1t is said to be
OF beautiful design, and will equal if not
eclipse anything of the kind on the field
on that day.
The AMIGO Club has rented the upper
floor of the large warehouse at Fifth and
streets, and the entire team will be
found there every evening hard at work
practicing.

TIA JUANA SUFFERERS.
The Supreme Court says the Relief Ac
Was Illegal.

The Supreme Court says the Relief Act
Was Illegal.
Two years ago, while the Legislature
was in session, there were very heavy
rains in the southern end of the State.
and in San Diego County many of the
settlers lost their all by floods, especially
those of the Tia Juana locality. The Leg
islature passed an Act giving the Super
visors OF that county authority to draw
5000 from the State for the relief of the
sufferers, but Controller Colgan, acting
under legal advice, refused to issue a war
rant for the money on the ground that the
Act was unconstitutional.
An action was brought against the Con-
troller to compel him to issue warrant
for the money, and the Superior Court
gave Judgment for the plaintiffs. The
case was appealed, and now comes the
Supreme Court with its decision reyers-
ing the Judgment. Says the court:
1.-The Act is clearly in violation of the
provisions of Section 81, Article ~ ofthe
Constitution, which provides that the
Legislature shall have no power to make
any gift, or authorize the making of any
gilt of any public money or thing ofvalue
to any individual. The Judgment of the
lower court is reversed with directions to
dismiss the proceedings and enter judg-
ment in favor of defendant for costs.v
The decision was written by Paterson
and concurred in by Garoutte and Harri-
SON

wrong.
He declares that the firm has no inter-
