Our evening contemporary devotes
over three columns of its space on Satur-
day TO smirching all the citizens who at
tended the inaugural ball, because, as it
does not mention a single person guilty
of the atrocities" which it alleges, it
leaves every one present subject to the
vile charges. 1t declares in flaming
headlines that 1t will tell the whole
truth" and then fails to substan tiate q
single charge OF atrocities" by the testi-
mony ola reputable witness. It's story
runs about like this: Mr.. \ says that
Mrs. Is says she saw this and that Mr..
c says "that several prominent people
told him." etc. If there was any i'm
proper conduct in any of the rooms in
the Capitol the vast number of decent
ana respectable people knew nothing of
il. and our contemporary presents no evil
deuce that il was by Sacramentans, as
charged. Ladies and gentlemen who re-
raained until after the music stopped and
the bali was over, declare that they saw
no unseemly conduct. at is q dirty

A Terrible Yisitaut.

Pain is always a terrible visitant, and
often domiciles itself with one for life.
This intiiction is preventible, in cases of
rheumatism, by timely resort TO Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, which checks
the entertainments OF this obstinate and
dangerous malady at the outset. The
term dangerous is used advisediy, for
rheumatism is always liable to attack the
vital organs and terminate life. No testi-
mony is more conclusive and concurrent
than that of physicians who testify to the
excellent effect of the Bitters in this dis
ease. Persons incur Wetting i'll rainy
or snowy weather, and who are exposed
to draughts, should use the Bitters as
preventive Of i'll effects. Malaria, dys-
pepsia. liver and kidney trouble, nerv-
BUSINESS and debility are also among the
ailments to which this popular medicine 6
is adapted. For the infirmities, soreness
and stiffness OF the aged it is highly bene-
fetal.

meeting was from three to four thousand,
on the day the Salisbury and Hamlin
horses started there we're forty thousand
people there from all parts of the State to
see them.
The programme for Friday next will
consist OF a 5000 race, three in five, free
for all, in which Azote, klamath and
Nightingale will start. This will be a
genuine race said Neal, land the best
horse will win it. Salisbury, Hamlin
and Raymond each thinks his own horse
can do it.''
Robert j. and Joe Patchen will each be
driven to lower his own record while
beating the other in $1,000 three in five
race. At Fresno Patchen won, his best
time being 2:o6. The track, however,
was slow.
Flying Jib will be hitched with run
ming mate and sent against his worlds
record of 1851. If he doesn't sulk, and
the track should be right, it is believed
he will beat it. He is, however, a hard
horse to manage.
AK, the trotting queen, and Directly,
the wonderful young PAGER, will go
against their respective records, with a
running horse for pacemaker.
1t may be many years before another
such aggregation of trotting and pacing

CROPS AND WEATHER.

Weather Observer Barwick is Pleased
With the Outlooa.
Director Barwick of the California
Weather and Crop Service summarizes
as follows for January, 1895:
The average temperature was: For San
Francisco 4S0, Eureka 46O, Red Bluff Az,
Sacramento AS, Independence $50, Fresno
40, San Luis Oblspo 5Oo, Los Angeles 80
and san Diego 54O. AS compared with
the normal temperatures, there was de-
ticiency OF heat OF from II to e, except at
Fresno and san Diego, where an excess
OF - and l., respectively, was reported.
The total precipitation for January was:
For San francisco 7 inches, Eureka $40,
Red Bluff $50, Sacramento S.42. Inde-
pendence 1.20, Fresno 40, San Luis
Obispo s, Los Angeles $50 and San Diego
$50 inches.
AS compared with the normal precipi-
tatlOn, there was an excess reported from
all quarters OF from 5.34 inches at San
Diego to 202 inches at San Francisco,
there being but one point in the State re-
porting rainfall less than the normal,
and, strange to say, that point was Eu-
reka, humboldt County, where thirteen
hundredths of an inch less than the nor
NAL is reported.
The deficiency in temperature has
caused no damage from frost, nor has the
excessive precipitation dOneany material
damage, excepting the flooding OF some
valuable lands along the Sacramento
River, which will be planted TO crops
later on In the season.
The troSts in some localities have
checked the rapid growth OF feed, and in
consequence stock viii suffer to some ex-
tent.
All crops above the overfowed land in
the Sacramento Valley are in excellent
condition.
The outlook in the San Joaquin Valley
is, indeed, very promising. III fact 1t is
the first time in many years that such
good prospects are reported from the
west side OF that valley.
Even the dry county of Inyo reports
everything as looking very promising.
Most excellent prospects are reported
| from the entire portion of the State south
OF the Iehachapi Mountains. Owing to
the very cOplOus rains during the past
two months there will be large acreage
OF grain and hay sown and numerous
! new orchards viii be set out.
The reported floods in San Diego
County were much exaggerated in the
press accounts given at the time. Little
damage has resulted therefrom, as COM
pared with the great benefit derived from
the thorough soaking OF the soil, while
| the mountain tops are deeply covered
with snow, thereby assuring an abundant
supply of water tor irrigation purposes
/ during the dry summer season.
The weather during the month has
advanced the prospects Of the agricult-
aral, horticultural and viticultural inter-
ests Of this State, for the slight damage
caused by the abnormal monthly precipi-
tation Will be greatly cverbalanced from
crops OF all kinds that will be abundant
on the higher and dryer mesa lands.
san Joaquin County has, for the first
time, shipped oranges by the quantity,
as a carload left Acampo the latter part of
the month.

Oldest House In New York.

Ono of the few relics left of the early
colonial days is still standing at South
ampton, n. Y. This town claims the pre-
eminence of being the oldest English town
In the state of New York, and the ancient
house referred to was built by Thomas
Sayre, one Of the first settlers. 1t was
erected In 164S and has been handed down
from father to son in an unbroken line for
ten generations, the present owner being
the direct descendant Of the builder
AT u time Of threatened Indian outbreak
In 1866 1t was one of tho rallying places of
the inhabitants in case Of night attack
The descendants of Thomas Sayre are very
numerous, both in this state and in New
Jersey. The ancient mansion, which
stands on the main street of the village is
an object Of curious interest to the multi
tude Of city residents who find In that
quiet village by the sea a summer resting
place
The massive timbers and covering Of
thick cedar shingles are sufficient to insure
its remaining for years to come as a curl
Gus and interesting relic Of long past
age. OF no other house in the state can 1t
be said that ten generations have been
born and died within its walls.-New

BELLOWS HOLD THEIR OWN.
Biarhsmiths stick TO Them Notwlthstand
ing the Newer Power Blowers,


ing the Newer Power Blowers,
The blacksmiths bellows has three
SOards. When the bellows Is set up In po-
sltion, the middle board Is fixed; the up
per and lower boards are movable. There
Is valve in the middle board and one in
the lower board When the bellows is not
In use, the lower board falls as far as the
leather will permit it, and that compart.
ment Is then filled with air. With the
working of the lever and the raising Of the
lower board the air In the lower oompart-
ment is forced through the valve In the
middle board into the upper compartment,
which Ia the reservoir, whence It flows
through the nozzle of the bellows into the
fire. wher lhe pressure from below ceases,
the valve IN the middle board closes, and
the air IA shen forced out from the upper
compartment or reservoir of the bellows
by the weight Of the upper board. Some
times this board is weighted TO make 1t
expel the air more rapidly and forcibly.
The continuance Of the blast without the
working Of the lever, caused by the gradu-
ally sinking upper board Of the bellows,
may last for quarter of minute. 1t Is
highly priced characteristic of the bel
lows. The blacksmith who Is alone is thus
enabled II he should so desire, to use both
hands at the fire, or he might go across
the shop and be back swaying the lever
once more before the blast had ceased.
A good bellows will last for many years
without repairs. Blacksmlths' bellows ore
made in various sizes from "a inch to 60
inch. The 36 inch is the size most COM
monty sold. The size Is the width at the
widest point. Bellows are longer than
they are wide, and they are made Of dit
ferent lengths in the same width, ordinary
and long. There are about 10 bellows
manufacturers In the country, including
three in New York and one in Brooklyn.
Manufacturing and other establishments
supplied with power forges are nowadays
equipped with power blowers, and there
are also various hand blowers, some oper-
ated with crank and some with lever,
and there are now used many portable
forges and blowers combined. The sale Of
modern appliances for blowing forge fires
has increased greatly In recent years, while
the sale of bellows has not. But there are
shipsmlths and boiler makers, wheel
wrights, carriage and wagon makers and
others who still use bellows and almost
every horseshoer uses bellows and pro-
fers 1t to any other means Of blowing his
fire, so that there are still sold thousands
of bellows annually Now York Sun.
