CONDITION OF THE CROPS.
Warm and Moist Weather Needed in
Many Places.
Fruit is Generally Doing Better
Than the Grain-Too Much
Drying Winds.

Following is a synopsis of the crop
bulletins for the past week, received by
Director Barwick OF the State Weather
Service from voluntary Observers:
The average temperature during the
week In this city was 56o, being 6' below
the normal, and at Fresno 70 below. In
the treeport fruit belt of Sacramento
County cherries can be found that are al
ready in an eatable condition, with pros
poets OF fair yield Of good fruit.
The outlook, as judged from the follow
ing remarks of exchanges, shows that
the continuation of the high and drying
northerly winds are doing some damage
in the greater portion of the san joaquin
Valley, and, in connection with the alb
normally cool weather, all over the State.
All crops are at staudstill, and fruit
makes slow advances.
The top crust of the ground is becoming
so baked that unless goodly May showers
visit portions of the State there will be
considerable damage. Ii the first seven
days in May give the State as goodly
showers as was had the first week of May
last year, crops will then do well. There
was in Sacramento total rainfall of 80
OF an inch the first seven days.
Taking this weeks reports all together,
1t cannot be said to present an eNtraordi-
nary glowing appearance. 1t looks now
as though an average grain crop for the
state will be an impossibility. while the
fruit crop will be very nearly or quite up
10 the average, excepting apricots, al
though several places report an abundant
crop of that fruit; but the places report
ing failures will put that fruit far below
an average yield.
Ii the coming week turns warm. and
southerly winds blow to bring moisture,
clouds and rain, then the reports for the
next week may be more encouraging
than at present.
The mean temperatures, maximum and
minimum temperatures and rainfall for
the week ending Monday, May l, 1898,

The new window show-card with
which the Caledonian Club intends to ad-
vertise its annual gathering is a fine
piece of work, and represents the dancing
of a Highland reel, the dancers and piper
being in full Highland costume. The de.
sign is by William Ralston, one of the
first artists in Scotland, and it is said the
only one at the present day who has de-
voted his talents TO this branch of art and
can produce figures true to life. He is at
present on the staff of the London Illus
trdted Net0S, and produces all the humor-
Gus Highland sketches for Punch.
The association, desirous of furthering
home industries, had the wood-engrav-
ing done in Sacramento, and for proper
ton, truthfulness 10 design, coloring and
skillful workmanship, could not be sur
passed, II equaled, by any of the larger
engraving establishments in the East.
The association has large class OF
children, sons and daughters OF mem
bers, who have been under the tuition
Of Professor Fraser for the last nine
months, the majority of whom are now
experts and even excel their teacher.
They will all be arrayed in full costume,
and this year will give one OF the finest
exhibitions of Highland dancing ever
witnessed in this country. Those who
compose the class are: Vivie Wallace,
Mabel Wallace. Maggie McCaw, Bessie
Logan, Annie Mcintyre, Jennie McIn-
tyre, Maggie Mcdonald, Ella Mcdonald,
Blanche Guild, Jessie Carlaw, Reta Car
law, Maggie Duncan, Alexander McCaw,

From word already received from all the
cities on the coast, the gathering of this
year promises TO be one of the largest
and most successful ever held in Sacra-
mentO.

 The extra session of congress will take
 out of the impoverished treasury a big sum in cash. Though many of the ex- pspses of the national legislature run on
 during it's absence from Washington, they
 lump to a maximum when 1. sits. To make laws costs Uncle Sam pile of mon ey annually. The pay alone of members of the house amounts to $l 800. 900 year, and they get s130,000 extra for milea.e. To help them transact their business they require A small army of clerks, doorkeep- CTS, book keepers, psges, messengers, e;c. The salary list for this force of assistants runs up to s730, ,000. This does not in- cluds the office of the sergeant-st arms, which Is a sort of bank, through which | salaries of the representatives are paid. | To run this financial institution an outlay | of sixteen thousand dollars more Is need | ed.

 The number of eenators being muel smaller, their annual pay amounts only t'
 $40, 900, with sn addition of $45, 900 fo

 for employees in the office of the vice pres
