GOOD DOVE SHOOTING.

Several PARTIES Have Good Luck ON
Their Sunday Trip.
Several parties Of local sportsmen
went out Sunday and made some very
favorable bags OF doves. Those getting
the largest number were George Rslph.
and Charles Van Vslkenburg, who re-
turned from Burbank with "a. james
Desmond and James hatfield went to
Cahuenga pass and bsggsd 81. while Ed
Tufts and Horace Anderson secured 6S
from their trip out around Tropico.
The season for doves opened on the 1st
Of August, but owing to the hot weather
not much shooting has been done. The
season for quail opens on September LIST
and for ducks on September 10Th.
If those who go dove shooting will
take up station near some pass, whore
their game 10 in the habit of flying, and
sit down until about o'clock in the
evening, they will stand much better
chance Of securing good bag of game
than to 60 trsmping all over the hills.

The Action OF tho Sacramento National
Guard at tho Strike.
Gen. O. @. Allen, adjutant Of the Ma
ional guard OF the state, came down
from Sacramento yes tsrday and is at
the Hollenbeok. The general will re-.
view the Seventh and Ninth regiments,
now in camp at Santa Monica, ON Thurs
day. In speaking upon the general con-
dition of the state troops, ct his hotel
yesterday, he referred to the late strike
and the conduct of the militia 1T Sacra-
mento. He said that the boys had done
their duty in every particular, and were
quite as efficient in case OF emergency
as the regulars. Upon. the occasion
which called forth the comment over
apparent lack of discipline, the Sacra-
mento company, for it was they who
were brought into notice, acted az any
set OF men would act. They made re-
quest, through their captain, to be as.
sigred to some other duty than that of
attacking their own brothers about
the depot. They said, however,
that they would 90, if ordered, and do
their duty like men.
They we're ordered to march to the
depot, despite their request, and then
we're made to feel their utter powerless-
meas by the non-action or irresolute con-
duct of Marshal Baldwin. They did not
in any instance refuse to do duty and
when they were sent up to Dunsmuir
they did as we'll as any company OF reg
ulars could have done.
The general feels that the National
guard OF the state is q credit to it and
that it should be kept up to the present
high standard.
The past strike will probably cost the
state about 100000 All the bills are
not yet in, consequently the exact
amount cannot be stated.

With the supply
C0mmittees

An adjourned meeting Of the city
board Of education was hold last night
for the purpose OF considering bids on
supplies and the heating apparatus of
the high school. Tho meeting was q
stormy one.
| The first order was the consideration
of the high school heating apparatus.
President Pepper stated that the matter
had all been agreed upon except the
selection of boiler.
MIR. Charlea @. Moore of San Fran
cisco, representing the Babcock- Wilcox
boilers, was heard in behalf of hia in.
stitution's make. He made q compari.
son with the National and Root boilers.
and claimed that while his boiler will
cost about $400 more than the others,
it will be more economical in the end.
]. @. Nolan, representing the Aben-
droth Root boiler, presented the merits
OF his make OF boilers, and disclosed the
! fact that, while he represents both tho
National and Root boilers, he can fur
nish the National boiler for 5000 less
than he can the Root boiler.
Mr.. Trask thought he saw some she
nanigan in the boiler business in this
case, and said 30. emphstically. He
thought the whole business better be
stopped as once.
Mr.. Platt thought IL high time that
the contractors were put in position to
know where they are at.
A motion that the matter be referred
to the committee was lost, and later,
after q heated discussion, coming up
again, was carried.
The chairman of the committee on
supplies reported recommendations for
supplies to be purchased. as per the
prices submitted, OF the following firms !;
