To the Honorable Board of Trustees
of the city of Sacramento-Gentieme
For the last eighteen monthsI have been
acting as attorney for the city of Sac
ramento in matters in which the city
was legally interested, under an ordi-
nance passed by your honorable board
My dealings are principally with the
Board of Trustees, as they, under the
Charter, have charge of the litigation
affecting the city. My employment con-
tinues for no fixed time, but simply dur
ing the pleasure of your honorable
board.
SDOulu ike TO nave ali 6ApLSoolOiA
from yourselves as to whether my
services are longer desired; if not,
shall transfer such matters as are in my
charge TO any person that may be des-
ignated.
The ordinance providing for the ap
pointment of an attorney declares he
may be summarily discharged by the
board at any time, and as there will be
new administration commencing this
day I should like to have you, as soon
as possible, acquaint me with your
wishes so that I may govern myself ac-
cordingly. Should the board not de-
sire my services continued the Mayor
will appoint some person to take my
place, and l shall do anything that may
be required to acquaint him with the
city's business and litigation.
While the Board of Trustees cannot,
IN the first instance, select an attorney,
yet when ne is selected with their con-
sent, he is the attorney for the board,
and he acts as such no longer than they
wish.
Hoping that you will let me know
your wishes, and thanking you for the
courteous treatment I have received in
the past, / remain, yours truly,
ROBERT T. DEVLIN.

Last night about 7:30 o'clock one of
the firemen at the Water Works saw a
man pass the door of the boiler-room
toward a locker that was outside, and
told Louis Wagner, who was on duty,
what he had seen. Wagner went to-
ward the locker. when the fellow, who
was inside, tried to pull the door shut
and hide himself. Wagner pulled it
open and asked him what he was doing
there, and was answered that he was
looking for his hat, where he had been
lying down.
Wagner, however, who had hung his
clothes up there, noticed that they were
lying on the floor, and, picking them up,
found his watch gone. He told the fell

heard the watch fall as he threw it be-

to his assistance, the fellow was taken
to the police station, after a hard fight.

ADJUSTMENTS

At the Metropolitan Theater to-mor-

tainment for the benefit of st. PauPs
Episcopal Church that will undoubted-
ly draw, as it will deserve, a large au-
dience. 1t is for worthy cause, it is
patriotic in character largely, it is to
be spectacular, and it will engage the
services of about hundred of the pret-
test children in the city, besides a great
many young women and adults who

and 3O0 people. Seats for the enter
tainment can now be secured at the

stage direction, as has been the whole
stage preparation, win be under the su-
perintendence of the Misses Mathews
of Chicago, who have managed several
such entertainments and always with
success, the latest being in San Jose.
The spectacle is modelled after the ia
nous America spectacle that was
given in the Auditorium at Chicago
during the Worlds Fair. Of course
while the inspiration has been drawn
from the America" spectacle, the en-
tertainment of tomorrow night will be
much modified from the original and
adapted to the season, the occasion,
and to local possibilities But for all
that it viii be very beautiful, very in
teresting and very entertaining There
will be with a full brass band, a.
male quartet, many novel marches and
parades by fairies, brownies and gro
tesque and allegorical characters. In
the midst of a garden scene, with dark
ness settling down and fountains softly
playing, the fairies suddenly appear
among a throng of children, who yield
them place and precedence With
them come the brownies, and as the
fairy revel begins America is taken
up and sung by the children, and CO.
