THE GAME BILL.
1t Will be Reported Favorably to the
Assembly To-day

1t Will be Reported Favorably to the
Assembly To-day.
The Assembly Committee on Fish and
Game on Saturday concluded its consid-
Grafton of the new game and fish bill in
troduced by Cutter of Yuba, and will this
morning report it back to the House with
a unanimous recommendation IN its
favor.
The bill is the one published in the
RECORD UNION recently as having been
agreed upon at the State Convention held
last summer. Its chief features are the
same that have been in force for the last
thirty years, but it restricts somewhat
the shooting season, and also places a
limitation on the time in which market
hunters may operate.
The trespass clause that has been in
force was retained, but the committee
added e clause providing that salt marsh
lands-sucn as border on bays and ocean
and which are not susceptible of cultiva-
tlon-shaII be open to anyone TO shoot
thereon. 1t is claimed that only about
one-tltth OF these salt marsh lands are
held as preserves, but the committee
deemed it best 70 exclude all of that char
acter from the provisions of the bill.
1t is quite likely the owners of salt
marsh lands will oppose this feature of
the bill, as they claim that the only rev.
enue they can derive from that class of
property is the rental Of it for shooting
purposes to market hunters and clubs Of
spOrtsmen. The committee, however,
was unanimous in its report.

Mr, Vanderbilt. A COMMITTEEMAN,
The Theatrical Hat Nuisance.

The Theatrical HAT Nuisance.
EDS. RECORD UNION: / observe that in
some localities, notably in the State of
Missouri and the city of San Francisco,
legislative movements are on foot to reg
ulate and prohibit the wearing of fem-
nine headgear in theaters and other
places OF amusement. HAT this custom
has become an intolerable nuisance goes
without saying. | see a tendency in
some quarters to ridicule Legislation
upon this subject, the claim being made
that laws Of this character would be in
operative, etc, but | do not coincide in
that idea. l believe laws can be as effect
i've in this as in the suppression of any
other nuisance. But if law should prove
q failure, then | propose another plan Of
operations. AS it is now, a person might
as well shut his eyes throughout a per-
formance as attempt to see the stage
through the mass of sky-scraping fem
lnine head-toggery that confrOnts him.
Custom, courtesy and a spirit OF accom-
mediation and common decency and re-
spect for the rights OF others impel the
male gender TO remove their hats during
attendance at a theatrical performance.
Has the female any more inherent right
than the male auditor TO retain her head
mOnstrosities on such occasions? | am
opposed TO this jug-haudIed fashion.
Now l suggest and advocate that theat-
rical managers henceforth request that
men retain their hats on their heads dur
ing the entire stage performance.
NV hats sauce for the goose is sauce for
the gander." Give women dose of their
own hat medicine and see how they rel
ish it. FEDORA.

A Variety Actor Under Arrest On n
Charge of Stealing Money.
w. L. Sharp, Frank Sharp aud Alfred
Byrue, variety actors, were arrested at
the depot Saturday morning on their ar
rival from san Francisco on charge of
having stolen $500 belonging TO Mrs.
Howard of that city. The latter claims
that w. +. Sharp caused her to draw the
money from the Hibernia Bank and leave
it at her house. Sharp took the money
on Friday, she says, and bought tickets
Tor Omaha for himself, his brother Frank
and Byrne and left San Francisco with
the intention of leaving the State.
Mrs. Howard said she tried to procure
q warrant Tor the arrest of the trio. but
the hour was too late on Friday night for
that purpose, and Disgusting herself, she
took the same train with the fugitives
Before the train arrived here she tele-
phoued to this city for their arrest.
w. e. Sharp claims that the money
was his own, and therefore he had q right
to it. The Hibernia Bank was communi-
Gated with by telephone, and word came
back that Mrs. Howard's statement that
she drew the money from the bank was
true.

"A Locomotive ana Two Freight Cars
Derailed Yesterday.
Hundreds of people availed themselves
OF the opportunity yesterday afternoon of
seeing genuine railroad wreck for the
first time in their lives.
The wreck occurred at Second and r
streets about $3.50 o'clock, as freight
train from the south was nearing the end
OF its journey.
just as the front of the train reached
the curve at the point named, and while
moving along at the usual in-town rate of
speed, the Dig locomotive jumped the
! rails and turned to the le1E, plunging
down the steep grade Of the R-street cn-
Dankment, where it turned over on its
side IN badly smashed-up condition.
Andy Wills, the engineer, Mike Glen
troe, the head brakeman, and fireman
White were on the engine. The first two
remained until it keeled over, when they
crawled out through the side window Of
the cab, but the fireman jumped before it
turned over. None Of the men were hurt
much.
Two Of the freight cars were driven
past the locomotive and derailed. In
order to clear the track one was thrown
over on the left and the other on the right
SIDE OF the embankment. The former
fell upon some piles of lumber and ties,
but the latter made two revolutions down
the high bank and landed bottom-up
with one end resting against shed in the
rear Of small house. Had it turned
over once more, or even haif-over, it
would have crushed the house.
Both cars were loaded with oranges,
and every body in the big crowd that
gathered was feasting on citrus fruit
while watching the wrecking gang at
work clearing the track. In couple Of
hours the debris was removed, the track
repaired and the rest OF the train taken to
the yard up town.
The cause of the accident could not be
ascertaIned, but it was thought to have
resulted from the spreading OF the rails.
