MISS CONNELLY'S RECITAL.
A Coming Event of Unusual Merit
and Attraction.

Much interest is being evinced in the
coming concert recital to be given by
Emile Mae Connolly on Tuesday even
ing in the Congregational Church The
programme throughout will be of un-
usual excellence. Mrs. j. H Copper
smith and Mrs. B. F. Howard will be
the vocal soloists of the evening, while
the Ideal Mandolin Club and Miss Liz
NJ. Adler and F. ]. Lewis will furnish
instrumental music. George Allen Wat
son, the well-known actor and dramatic
teacher, who has been Miss Connelly's
instructor for some time past, will also
contribute one number.
Miss Connelly's own work need hard
ly be referred to in these columns. as
she is too well known to the Sacrament
to public as a dramatic reader of rare
ability. On this occasion she will un-
dertake something somewhat ambitious
for an amateur, giving The Potion
Scene" from Romeo and Juliet" THE
Ophelia Mad Scene" from Hamlet
and a scene from THE Tanning of the
Shrew." The two first-named scenes. it
will be remembered, were rendered here
recently by a professional reader, but
as Miss Connelly's programme was al
ready arranged and her Interpretation
being entirely different, it was thought
best not to omit that feature.
One of the most pleasing features of
the entertainment will be the whistlng
by Miss Olive Trusette of San Fran
CISCO who is not only marvellous
whistler but a strikingly handsome
young woman as we'll.

.SPRINKLING COUNTY ROADS.
Supervisors Discuss Means Of Doing
the Work.
The New Horticultural Law rlay
Work Havoc With Counties
Finances.

When the Board of Supervisors met
yesterday morning a resolution was
adopted granting Public Administrator
W. B. Miller sixty days leave of alb
sence, to commence on May 22d.
Chairman Jenkins was granted leave
of absence for the day, and Morrison
was called to the chair
In relation to the petition for Board
of Horticulture Morrison said the new
law was very loosely drawn and provid-
ed no term of office for the Commis-
sioners when once appointed, and they
were practically beyond the control of
the board, as it takes a petition of
twenty-five orchardiStS to start pro-
ceedings to remove them. Under the
bill an expense of $4,000 a month could
be saddled on the county. The bill was
referred to the District Attorney for his
opinion as to whether the board could
limit the time of appointments or not.
Mclaughlin asked what was the gen.
eral time for commencing to sprinkle
the county roads.
Morrison said that it generally began
in May and June, but the fund was very
short, and the Treasurer had advised
the board to keep down to absolutely
necessary expenses until the beginning
of the fiscal year.
Curtis said he did not want to criti
cize the action of any members of the
board. but there had been considerable
money expended that could have been
avoided. or at least delayed. 1t was so
last year and he hoped that the board
would not again find itself in this fix.
~oi intended
inspect all the county roads next week,
and could then see what could be done.
The board had been called upon to
pay large amounts of money that it had
not calculated on. Among them was
the American River bridge and one far
ther up in the Fourth District. A large
amount of money has been paid out for
the two country districts, and most of
the bridge work has been paid for from
the general fund.
Curtis expressed himself as opposed
TO the expense of building two rooms
for the insane before July 1st. The
law says the board must provide rooms.
but another law prohibits it from incur
ring any debts beyond the estimates
made for the year.
Morrison agreed with, him and
thought the Lunacy Commission would
not insist on hurrying the matter.
Mclaughlin said he would like the
sprinkling matter to be settled. Now is
the time that the sprinkling should be
done in order to save the road material
from being blown away. and dollar
spent in that way at present would be
worth two later.
Morrison agreed with him, and said
that if the board wished to unanimous
ly provide for sprinkling now, he<would
take his shances with the rest of them
before the people.
f. *. Alsip said he wished to speak
TO the board on the subject. That por-
ton of the Auburn road between Fair
Oaks and Sacramento was much trav-
