ARTISTIC WORK.
What Has Been Accomplished in a New

What Has Been Accomplished in a New
Order of Interior Decoration.
That is most effectively artistic in in
terror decoration that addresses the re-
fined taste and does not appeal to the
coarse desire for the gaudy and fiorid
Precisely as statuary is more imposing
and realistic than the deceits of light and
shade in painting, so is relief work su-
perior to the fiat or fresco style of wall
decoration. The one asks nothing from
the imagination, owes nothing to the lic-
tlons of the brush; the other eXcites ad-
miration chiefly because Of the skill of
the deceit.
No instance in this State or city of these
truths is more prominent than that of the
interior decoration of the State Library
done under the contract and personal SUI
pervlsion and direction of the artistic
judgment of Hevener, Mier II Co., 6l5
street.
1t is simply impossible in the space at
command to fully describe the beautiful
effects they have worked out. The cold,
flat, white and bald gold stripings have
given place to rich ivory tint Oh all CEN

out stripe or tleck, admirably contrasted
by the walls beneath the galleries being

OF the pillars, are there touches of bur
nished gold, like rich dashes of sunlight.

signs in strong relief, worked upon the

the artists touch is. before it hardens.

from darker hues melt imperceptibIy
into the prevailing ivory tint, are alter

seem ready to burst from the restraint Of
the arching panels.

All the painting and granting and var
nishing throughout the library was done
by Hevener, Mier " Co., and the beauti-
fully tinted artistic glass work in the cap
OF the dome was set under their super
vision.

and which is unquestiOnably to almost
wholly displace tresco, as it costs no
more, can be seen in their artrooms, 6I5

"You may take my word for it," said
ex-Supervisor Greer yesterday to a REC
ORD-UNIoN reporter, that Sacramento
will make a splendid showing at the
Worlds Fair exhibit in San Francisco,
We have sent ten truckloads of exhibits
to the bay, and it will trouble any other
county to equal them.
1--WE not only hope to ret away with
the first premium, but we expect also to
win the 500 prize offered for the first
county exhibit that shall be ready. We
have done great deal Of hard work in
overhauling the exhibit made at the
State Fair, and although it has suffered
somewhat as to quantity it has been i'm
proved in quality"
Referring TO the exhibit from this
county, yesterdays San Francisco C7tr0n-
icLe says: Sacramento County began
sending her display to the Pavilion yes
terday afternoon. The principal feature
so far unlocked is a wooden locomotive,
full-sized, which is to be set up and
covered with oranges. Quite a collection
OF growing orange and lemon trees has
also been delivered. 1t is limited that
Sacramento is not showing her full hand
as yet, because she intends to strive for
the prize for the finest general exhib bit and
does not care to let competitors know
her secrets until the fair is almost ready
to open"
Mr.. and Mrs. J. P. Odbert have gone to
San Francisco to help arrange and take
charge of Sacramento County's exhibit at
the Mechanics FAIR. 5. }. Bundock will
also go down this morning to put IN

The first carload of oranges ever shipped
from Placer County was loaded at New

from the orchard of tie Auburn Orange
Company, and was shipped to San Fran
cisco to become part of the Placer

A WARRINR COLIPI,E
f. a, Moseley Arrested on Complain
of His Wife.

E. a. Moseley Arrested on Complaint
OF His Wife.
Mrs. Hattie Moseley swore to two COM
plants yesterday, charging her husband,
Z. A. Moseley, with battery and threat
ening her life.
The Moseley's keep lodging-house at
GlS | street, and it is said proceedings for
a divorce between them have been begun.
Mrs. Moseley accuses Mosely of having
abused her shamefully on Thursday,
while he says she locked him out of the
house and struck him first. Moselev
claims the house and furniture belongs
as much to him as to her and that his
wife is trying to eject him.
From all that can be learned the pair
have been decidedly inharmonious for
some time, and during the past two days
Mrs. Moseley has summoned the officers
two or three times, but when they pro-
posed to arrest her husband she repented
and interceded in his behalf.
Yesterday she appealed to Judge Buck
ley, being accompanied by her father and
two men, who were presumably Wit
nesses. The warrants were issued about
noon and placed in the hands OF an Off
Ger, but for some reason he did not make
the arrest.
About $50 O'Clock Captain Bradley
visited the house and finding Moseley at
home placed him under arrest, and he
was taken to the City Jail.

Wagner, in a note to the RECoRD-UNIoN,
says that in view of articles recently pub
lished in certain papers, she feels it in
cumbent upon herself to publicly state
that her husband has not deserted her,
neither has he left her in destitute cir

Mr.. Wagner, she says, went to Port

he was taken sick and sent for her. In

been kind husband and an indulgent
