Santa Cr,sz Wind and Rotn.

SANTA CRUZ, CAL, Jan. 1G.-The
weather continues bad for pedestrians and
outdoor business, but excellent for the
farmer and the orchardist, save for a rather
stronger wind than is desired for young
trees and grain.
The sun has not shone in Santa Cruz
since last Sunday, and then it did not ven
ture out very far. Last night heavy
wind set in which continued till nearly
morning and was resumed again to- night,
accompanied by q heavy, steady down
pour of rain. The effect upon the salmon
fishing is discouraging. Several of the
fishing fleets boats were blown in on the
beach and no one has ventured on the bay
or sea to-day.
The beach has been visited to-day by
hundreds of persons, mostly ladies, who
enjoyed the spectacle of the huge breakers
and the rolling surf. The rain is accepted
as generous act of providence, but the
wind it is feared will prove disastrous.

Mardi Gras Entertainment at the
Hopkins Institute Next
Month.
THE FIRST IN THE NEW HOME.
Committees Will Be Appointed by the
Association Directors This
Week.

The directors of the San Francisco Art
Association at the Mark Hopkins Institute
of Art yesterday decided to give a suoscrip-
ton Mardi Gras bal masque on Tuesday
evening, February 18, which is Mardi
Gras. The entertainment given by this
association in March, 1888, the grand
affair at the Opera-house in March, 1889,
and the one at Odd Fellows Hall in Feb
ruary, 1890, are we'll remembered.
This ball, for the benefit of the Art Asso-
citation fund, will be the first entertain
ment given at the new home in the Mark
Hopkins Institute of Art, which is admir-
ably adapted for the purpose. The COM
mittees will be appointed this week: an
executive committee, a committee on in
vitations, committee of artists on deco
ration and music, a refreshment commit
tee, a reception and floor committee and
the lady patrons.
The rules governing the other enter
tainments will be adopted, it is said. The
ladies will be obliged to go en- masque.
while they will be urged to also don artis-
tic costumes representing characters from
real life, the drama and romance. The
ntleme n are not obliged to wear masks
and a committee will alone see the mask
ers as they enter the house. There will be
limited numb Der of invitations sent out to
people for subscription. The price of the
tickets has not yet been determined.
Horace G. Platt, membe OF the board
reported at the meeting his visit to the
benefactor of the Art Association, Edward
how many of the pictures since given to
the Art Association were acquired. Mr.
Searles had assured him of his wishes for
the welfare of the Mark Hopkins Institute
of Art.
Among other things of interest was an
account of the history of the celebrated
picture of "Marius Among the Ruins of
Carthage" by Vanderlyn, which now
hangs in the associations home. 1t was
purchased by Mr.. Searles from the late
Bishop Kip. Mr.. Searles handed to Mr..
Platt some newspaper clippings and an
original paper, which read as follows:
George Augustus sala said in the London
Telegraph: John Vanderlyn, farmers boy on
the Hudson River, the protege of Aaron Burr,
was the first imaginative painter Of high.or
der whom America has produced. He gained
the gold medal in the Paris 'Salon" on the ex-
hibition of his picture of "Marius Among the
Ruins of Carthage; /; but his career was un-
fortunate and he was twice constrained to
pawn the medal conferred upon him, the last
time without being able TO redeem it.
Here is the receipt for sum loaned on
his prize medal:

and f. 1. R. Moore. They are endeavor-
ing to work in harmony with the depart
ment at Washington. The points the
circular letter will present are substantially
as follows:
First-The existing classification was made
fifteen years ago when the territorial extent
and volume of business were only half what
they are now though the abor of the individual
clerk has been increased over 65 per cent, be-
sides his responsibilities becoming much
greater and hours OF duty longer.
Secondly the peculiar wording of the
present law no distinction is made between
clerks on trunk lines and those on little side
lines.
Third-At present the clerks do not know
from month to month what their salaries may
be- and are subject to the arbitrary adjustment
OF the administrative officers. Some years ago,
for instance, the salaries OF two classes were
reduced on account OF g supposed shortage in
the appropriation, but they have never since
been restored.
Fonrth and ffth-The semi-annual examine
lions show that the positions are responsible
ones and the clerks hard-working servants OF
the people, and the bill has received the in
dorsement of the department and the sanction
of the United States Senate
"We feel that we have the department

CHICAGO, I'LL, Jan. 16.-The National
Dairy Union concluded its convention this
afternoon. The time and place for meet
ing next year will be decided by the ex-
ecutive officers. Ex-Congressman W. H.
Hatch of Missouri was elected president
D. w. Wilson of Elgin, H., secretary. and
George w. Lynn of Chicago, treasurer.
Most of the former vlce-presidents were
reelected.
Resolutions were adopted instructing
the secretary to advise the butter dealers
in cities of over $1,000 inhabitants located
in States having laws regulating or pro-
hibiting the sale of oleomargarine that the
best way to reduce its sale is to form or
CARNATIONS, employ detectives and a law
yer and make cases with the assistance Of
the State Department, whose duty it is to
regulate the sale or manufacture of the
article; also instructing the officers of the
union to petition the Secretary of Agri-
culture regarding the necessity for purity
in agricultural products, and to use his
influence to have the recent ruling of the
Treasury Department as to trademarks
and labels on oleomargarine reissued, sus-
tanned and enforced.
The union also expressed its sense of
loss at the defeat OF President Hatch for
reelection to Congress- and appealed to
the voters of his district to return him at
the next election in the interests of agri-
culture. President Hatch announced that
he, Dairy Commissioner Adams OF Wis
consin and Congressman Hewes of Balti-
more were a subcommittee On legislation,
and that he would proceed at once to
Washington to get before Congress bills to
carry out the objects of the union.
The next convention will probably be
held in Washington, D. C.

The Sacramento River is rising very fast
and during the last twenty-four hours it

Rivers Are Rising, and Staging
Is Fraught With Much
Danger.
HIGH WINDS ARE PREVAILING,
But the General Rejoicing Is Heard
Above All of the Com
plants.

REDDING, CAL, Jan. 1G.--The most
terrific rain and wind storm witnessed in
Redding for years is raging tonight. The
wind is blowing a gale from the south
and rain falls in sheets at intervals.
The city is almost in total darkness. All
the arc lights are out and much trouble is
being had at the power-house on account
of the rapid rise of the river. The streets
are deserted and business houses closed
carly.
The river and all tributary streams are
rising rapidly. AS yet no damage has
been reported. The new Iron Mountain
Railroad is impossible on account of
numerous slides on the newly built grade.
Yesterday afternoon one of the stages
between Keswick and Iron Mountain upset
in Boulder Greek, which had been con-
verted into a raging torrent on account OF
the heavy rains of yesterday, and the
occupants, six in number, narrowly
escaped with their lives.
One of the passengers, James Harris of
Sacramento, had quite a thrilling expert
ence and is laid up in his room in hotel
here. A CALL reporter saw him this even
ing and obtained the following account OF
the accident:
eve were returning from Keswick yes
terday afternoon. The team which was
drawing the wagon were young animals
and as we reached the creek I told the
driver that it was dangerous to drive in
with such a team. He said 1t was all
night. When we reached the center of the
stream, as I expected, the horses refused
to go and began rearing, one of them fall
ing down.
There were six in the carriage, includ-
ing the driver. was in the center of the
back seat I tod Mr.. Simon, who was
sitting next to me, TO open the curtain,
but he said he could not. then put my
foot through. The driver and the rest of
the men jumped out, being the last one
10 leave the carriage.
GAS jumped out lost my footing and
was carried down the stream, feet first,
about fifty yards.
Il was bumped against a rock and my
hip was badly bruised. finally succeeded
in catching rock and kept myself from
being washed on to the powders below me.
We then crossed the creek on q foot
bridge, the driver taking the wagon across
alone, and got in the wagon again and
came safely to Redding.
lit was thrilling experience and every
moment all of Us expected to be dashed to
pieces on the powders or carried to a
watery grave by the angry element. The
rain, however, is welcomed by the miners
who have been praying for water for
weeks. 1t will be a great benefit also TO
crops, unless it should continue to pour
as it has to-day"

RIVERSIDE, CAL, Jan. 16.-The first
heavy rain of the season began falling this
evening, and the prospects are favora Bile
for continuation of the storm. The rain
comes at very opportune time, as the
grain crop in this county was in need of
moisture.
Early-sown grain has not made anv
growth OF late, while the late sown has
made little if any growth, owing to the alb.
sence of rain and the continued cold
weather. The present storm will be worth
thousands of dollars to the farmers of the
