PRACTICALLY ASSURED,
Augusta People Want City Represent
ed in New England League.
Mr.. Burnham Given Many and Cordial Assur.
ances Of Financial Support.

There is every reason to believe thai
Augusta will be fully up with the times
this season, and will be represented by a
live team in the New England League
IL our citizens are willing to show a
proper amount Of public spirit, this resul,
can certainly be accomplished. A series
OF games with the strong teams of this
fine league would certainly draw very
large number Of outside people to our CITY.
The fact must not be overlooked by our
citizens that the Maine Central Railroad.
with its usual liberality in such matters,
has made very liberal terms to the clubs
OF this league. Bangor is already plan
ming for number of half-rate excursions
the coming season, and with league club
in Augusta, our city could reasonably ex-
pect to reap the advantages of similar ar
rangements. We believe that our business
men will not be slow in appreciating the
value of this.
If portion of the games are played in
Gardiner, as will probably be the case if
arrangements can be made for grounds
there, the same advantages will also &C
crue to that city 1t pays for every city
to be up with the times-in sporting as in
other matters. The advertising which a
live ball team in the New England League
would afford the cities of the Kennebec-
to say nothing of the pleasure and recrea-
tion afforded-would be well worth the
expenditure necessary. If all of our citi-
zens are ready to give this movement a
helping hand, the matter of expense would
not be burden to anyone, and all, directly
or indirectly, will be the gamers by it.
The encouragement given Mr. Burn
ham, yesterday, was such as would indi-
cato very general disposition to push
this project to success. At the request of
a number of citizens, he will appear be-
fore the members of the league in Boston,
today, and state the expression of sentiment
given him by people of the city. He will
also ask that the cities of the Kennebec lie
given place in the league schedule pend
ing the effort to establish club in this
section of the State. While these games,
as matter of convenience will probably
be scheduled for Augusta, it will be left
to the local management to make such
disposition of them among the cities of
the Kennebec as may be for the best in
terests of the team.
The way is now clear for the people of
the Kennebec valley to see better bal
games than have ever before been played
in this section of the State. 1t remains
to be seen whether they will take advan-
tage of it. From the encouragement
given Mr.. Burnham, yesterday we have
every reason to believe that they will.

Jenkins, seconded by Curtis, moved
that the question be taken under ad-
Visement.
Morrison said that the matters of the
district had been before the board for
three years. The district should be re-
claimed, and if the residents were not
in favor of retaining it, part of it, at
least, should be reclaimed. 1t was a
shame to the county that it had not
been done long ago. Other districts
have been formed and reclaimed since
this one was formed.
Curtis said that he was peculiarly
situated. Part of his land is affected
by this and will be left outside the pro-
posed district. 1t would be an injustice
to those left outside to compel them to
take care of all the water from the high
lands.
Todd wanted to know if it was not an
injustice to the people of the Pocket"
TO have all the water run down on them.
The matter was continued till next
Monday morning, in order that mem
bers might examine into the matter Of

Commissioners Manson and Irvine of
the Bureau of Highways returned yes
terday from an extended trip to the

pieces by the roads over which they
have travelled
The trip was through the counties of
Placer, Nevada, Yuba Suffer- Butte,

an aggregation of / 500 miles Travelled
by them through the State with their
team In travelling from one countyseat
TO another they travelled over at least
one of the principal roads of each
county, and had thus an opportunity of
judging, in measure. in what kind of
repair the roads are kept, and also the
kind of material used on them.
The Commissioners travelled in the
wagon that they had made for their use,
a light tWO-hOrSe spring wagon, with
tires two inches Wide-Wider than many
large tWO-hOrse wagons that are made
to carry heavy loads on. The horses had
no blinds or check-reins, and after L.,

The Bureau has secured some interest
ing photographs of the Tehama County
rock-crusher, on the lava plains north
east of Red Bluff.
The Commissioners feel very much
encouraged by the earnestness with
which the people of the counties have
taken hold of the gOod-roads move
ment and the Willingness they have
shown to cooperate with the Bureau
and the Boards of Supervisors
Being asked which they found the bet
ter, the roads in the mountains or in the
valleys, it was stated by Mr.. Manson
that, considering the difficulty of main
tanning roads in the mountains, they
We're better there. There were two
draw backs to maintaining mountain
roads: First, the enormous expense of
constructing and operating steep grades,
and. second, the expense of repairing
them in the spring from the effects of
the rainfall and the melting snow. He
had an excellent opportunity for Observ-
alton on this point in going from French
Gulch to Trinity Mountains. On the
road known as the Tom Green grade
there was only a slight slope, and it was
not materially injured by the water from
storms and was not hard to maintain.
The other road was sleeper and harder
to operate. 1t was not much used by
teamsters to pull loads up HILL and the
damage caused by the wash from
storms is excessive.

A DOUBLE-HEADER

Two Decisions Against White, tho
Meudoclno Cattle King.
The Supreme Court yesterday decided
two cases against George E. White. "the
Mendocino Cattle King" as he is gener-
ally KIN own,'and whose name has been
before the public for long time in con-
nection with his divorce proceedings.
The court yesterday refused Whites
application for writ of certiorsri TO re-
view the order of the Superior Court OF
San Francisco adjudging him guilty OF
contempt. The Superior Court had en-
tered decree divorcing tn parties and
onjoining White from disposing Of the
community properly. A receiver was
appointed to control all this property and
hold 1t subject TO the control and direc-
ton of the court
White was declared guilty of interior
ing with the receiver while in the dis
charge of his duty, and was sentenced TO
jail for tive days and to pay fine of $500.
Numerous grounds are urged against
the validity of this Judgment" says the
/ Supreme Court, but they possess little
merit The writ is dismissed as the
/ record does not disclose an excess of iu-
I risdiclion, and no case is made for our in
reference by the remedy of certiorari.n
| In the other case White had also petit
/ toned the Supreme Court for writ of
certiorari to review and one of prohibi-
ton To stop the execution of All order OF

mo reason is urged why the right OF APP
peal, which the petitioner enjoys, will
not furnish him complete and full relief
By such appeal the hand of the Superior
Court is stayed, aud that of its instru-
ment, the receiver, pending its determin-
alton, by giving proper bond. The APP

His force has beer for some time en-
gagged in digging up the lawns and terraces
in front of the Capitol, in order to reno
vate the lawns, which have run out and
become choked by Bermuda grass and
other plants. The ground is being care
fully trenched twenty-five inches deep,
the top sod laid in the bottom of the
trench. face downward and the subsoil
placed on top, so that it will be some
years, If ever, before the roots or seeds
can disturb the new lawn. The whole
front OF the grounds has been treated in
this way, and the lawns at each end of
the building are being done likewise, and
after they are finished the whole will be
sown to blue grass.
lie will plant no more lawn than the
park has at present, except a few strips
of grass for borders III the back part. The

exception OF these strips. will be set out

Under the trees already growing there
will be planted circular beds of our ma

Cannas will also be planted around and
under the trees, and the plat that has In
the past looked SO barren will put on q

Much admiration has been expressed
at the fine array of chrysantheuums
which now adorns the front OF the park,
and which attracts much attention from
Eastern visitors. Next year Mr.. Dunn
expects 10 have the whole line of the
front set out in chrysanthemums. with
many OF the latest varieties. Having
found an elm tree east of the greenhouse
to interfere with the sunlight, he has had

the house will be a bower of flowers.
