A SAD ENDING.
Miss Truett Came to Sacramento Only
to Die Here.

Many citizens will regret to learn Of
the death of Miss Olive Truett, who
made SO favorable an impression at
Miss Connolly's concert on the 11th
inst Her death took place yesterday
morning at the home of Miss Connolly
on n street.
Miss Truett was attacked by a chill
a few days after the concert and peri
tonits set in. which assumed so seri-
Duh a form that an operation was per-
formed on Friday, but to no avail, and
she passed away yesterday morning.
She was a native of San Francisco and
21 years old. Her mother and sister
from whom she had never before been
separated, arrived here on being noti-
fled of her illness and We're present at
her death. Besides her father, +. G..
Truett, she leaves a younger brother
in San Francisco, and Fred Truett, an
other brother, who is agent for the As
socated Press in Los Angeles. The
body will be sent to San Francisco for
interment.
Short as was Miss Truett's stay in
Sacramento. she had made many warm
friends by the many estimable qualities
of her character, and they sympathize
deeply with her relatives.

Manager Morton Offers Programme
That Will be Worth Wit
Messing.

Oak Park will be in holiday attire to-
day, provided the weather holds fine,
and the new athletic grounds, which
are by far the finest on the coast, will
be opened to the public. j. d. Morton,
the manager, has spared neither time
nor money in completing the grounds,
and fully $4,000 has been put into the
enterprise.
Among the attractions at the park to-
day will be ball games between the
Wholesalers and the Retailers, the An
dersons and the Koenings athletic
Club teams), and a complimentary
benefit to Mr. Morton in the shape of
a game between the Boiler Shop and
the Rolling Mill teams of the Railroad
Shops League
The Railroad Shops League under
stands that Mr.. Morton has been at a
heavy expense in providing such excel
lent facilities for general outdoor sport,
and desire to show that they fully ap
preciate his efforts, and are willing to
assist him by every means in their
power. This game will be called at =
o'clock sharp.
Another attraction will be perform
ance in the theater, which has been
erected within the grounds. by vau-
deville troupe which comes we'll rec

stood, will be conducted in first-class
order, and those who take an outing in
anticipation OF a good time will not be
disappointed
Manager Morton proposes, in case to-

been provided, among which will be a
bowling alley. He also expects to erect
a commodious reading ROOM which
will be thrown open to all comers
The Capital City Wheelmen have
completed arrangements for the grand
meet to be held June 9th, and hereafter
all bicycle events will be held under
the auspices of the club The wheel
men will have training riding for the
coming races to-day. and some of the
spurts will undoubtedly be worth see
ing.
After tomorrow, all parties desiring
to use the bicycle track, which is. be-
yond question, the finest in the United
States, will be charged the regular fee,
which will be small, considering the
excellence of the track but while the
regular teams are training, outside
wheelmen- will be excluded from the
track. This will be necessary in order
to avoid accidents, and all men train
/ ing will be obliged to secure a permit
from the Race Committee, blanks for
which will be issued by L. S. Upson,
NJ s. Levenson and c. j. Atwater
Entries for the meet are coming in
rapidly, and that the event will prove
an entire success seems to be a settled
fact. The Capital City Wheelmen are
leaving no stone unturned to insure
swift racers, and other clubs in the
league are preparing their entries with
dispatch.

He saw clearly the benefit it would be
to the whole people of the county. They
must remember that the State will take
this road and relieve them of a cost
which has been a sore one to them for
many years because without the model
road the section is kept in debt by ex-
penditure upon the roadway to keep it
in paSsable condition.
He moved that Mr. Maude in making
out data that the commission can pre-
sent to the Supervisors include the con-
struction of foot paths, on one or on
both sides Of the roadway. He believed
in them. The people ought to have paths
they can walk on and not be driven to
the roadway. He referred to such a
road in the south, which both he and
Engineer Maude had travelled over
years ago. He wanted to see the new
road planted with evergreen trees also,
as is that road. But that would possi-
bly, come later on. His motion pre-
vailed.
Mr. Cohn called attention to the elec-
tric power poles along the line of the
road on entering Folsom, where they
encroached upon the roadway. That

referred to that encroachment and said
it must be adjusted
President Luhrs asked Mr. Maude il
he could at once prepare outline data
for use of the commission and the Su-
pervisors, and received an affirmative
response. He was instructed to go to
work upon it. The Chair asked Mr..
Miller if he could get his Chamber of
Commerce committee to meet at an
early date with the Supervisors and the
commission, and received an affirmative
reply. 1t was then ordered that the
commission adjourn to call of the Pres
ident and that the Chair and Mr. Miller
arrange for a joint conference of the
Supervisors, the commission and the
Chamber of Commerce comm. stee. Mr..
LuhrS said he was member of the

In response TO further inquiries Ensi-
neer Maude said it was scarcely neces-
sary for him to make a reconnaissance
of the road. He could say now that the
result of reconnaissance would not
give the commission any more neces-
sary information than he had already
given it or could give If desired, for
present purposes. However. il was
agreed that President Luhrs and Mr..
Maude would at once wheel over the
road once more.
In response To Commissioner I.aurid-
son and Mr.. Coleman he said the plats
and drawings of the preliminary survey
would show every detail of location. of
land affected generally where title is
probably involved and all cuts fills.

Yes. he would be willing to go on and
undertake the survey and push il at
once on the proposition suggested as to
payment for services. OF course. if the
commission wished it il could go out
and get plenty of men to offer to un-
dertake to do the work for song. or
for bread and butter. 1t was not for
him TO advise as TO that. His heart had
been in the work long before the Legis-
lature took il up. He had worked, with
others. and canvassed the line on the
plan TO raise means by contribution
and build the road, as was attempted
last year He wanted to see the work
accomplished as soon as ii can be done
as a State read model. He would like to
see it well on its way before he left for
Europe, where he is going to study Eu-
ropean road conditions.
Commissioner Cohn said his whole
heart was ~ the road proposed. He had
a high ambition to see it accomplished.

PROF. CHEYNE'S LECTURES.


 Rich Treat to be Afforded New Haven Citizens-First Lecture Tomorrow Even- ing.
 To the Editor of the Journal and Courier; Sir: May I through your columns invite the attention of the citizens of New Haven to the valuable course of lectures to be delivered under the auspices of the university at College street hall, beginning on Thursday eve ming of this week, by the Rev. Profes- sor Cheyne, D. D., of Oxford univer- sity?
 The lecturer is a scholar of world wide repute, a man of broad sympa- thies, a writer of much power and a specialist on the theme which he has chosen. It may be confidently asserted that his lectures, although not designed for specialists, but for the public, will embody real contribution, not obtain able elsewhere, to our knowledge of a period of history heretofore but little understood, but of vast importance to the student of New Testament thought. His theme Aspects of Jewish Re- ligious Life After the Exile" will inter- est not only Bible students, but all those who give attention to historical or religious themes.
 There is perhaps no more notable 1ectureship in the world than this an- nual series projected and managed by the American committee for lectures or the history of religions. Begun by Pro- lessor Rhys Davids and continued last year and this by Dr. Brinton and Pro- lessor Cheyne, it will be given in 1S9S-e by Professor Karl Budde of strassburg No one university would be able to in They are only obtainable by the joint action of a number of representative educational centers.
 Whether they will continue to be given each year in this city depends entirely on the interest manifested by those within and without the univer. sity. Such interest has to be manifest ed in practical way by the purchase of tickets, since the local committee 1T charge has been unable to find donol willing to bear the whole expense o. the 1ectureship.
 The series of six lectures will be de 1ivered on Thursday, Friday and Sat urday evenings at o'clock this weel and next. An elaborate syllabus vii be distributed to those who attend Course tickets may be secured a Judd's or at the door. Single admis sions will be fifty cents.
 Professor Cheyue has already beer heartily received at Ithaca and in Nev York city. Will 1t not be possible ol Thursday evening to give him a repre- sentative welcome to our city?
 Respectfully yours,

TWO INTERESTING LECTURES


 The lectures to be given to-day by Dr. Egerton R. Young of Canada promise to be of unusual interest. His stories of his work among the Hudson Bay h. dians, of his canoe trips and his snow sled journeys with his team of dogs are full of uncommon experiences.
 Dr. Young, while in Great Britain, made four hundred addresses every where awakening deepest interest. In this country, at Chautauqua assemblies, at Lake Mohonk conferences, in the churches of our cities, his talks have aroused enthusiasm.
 Dr. Young speaks, under the auspices of the New Haven Indian association, this afternoon at 3 o'clock in Center church chapel and this evening at s o'clock in the First Methodist church. Admission free, but collection will be gathered.
 The eloquent c. c. McCabe says of Dr, Young's lectures:
 Fl Reno, Oklahoma, Oct. 14, 1897. Have you ever heard Dr. Egerton R. Young speak on missions among the Indians? If not, a greater treat than YOU can well imagine awaits you. He is the John B. Cough among mission ary speakers. He holds the fixed atten- ton of the largest audiences to the close of every address
 He ought to be pleading the sacred cause every night in the year.

NATURAL FAT,
Getting Fat is Only Question oi
 Eating Proper Food.

Eating IrOper EOOu.
 Thin people who want to get fat should eat proper food and Gigest it.
 That is the only natural way.
 The trouble with most thin people Is that they suffer from indigestion.
 They don't digest their food. They don't get enough nourishment. They are slowly being starved. They are poisoned by the products of fermented and putrid food.
 Shaker Digestive Cordial, a. gentle, natural, vegetable digestive, attacks the food in your stomach just like the digestive juices, and turns it into healthful nourishment. It helps your stomach naturally. It makes thin dys- peptics fat. It makes poisonous blood pure It tones up and cures the sto- mach.
 Nothing will cure indigestion like Shaker Digestive Cordial, because mo- thing else goes so naturally about it.
 This is why it has been so successful in relieving nausea, vomiting, dizzi- ness, weakness, bad taste, fever, flatu- fence, constipation, loss of appetite, headache, neuralgia, rheumatism, etc., by curing the disorder which causes the symptoms.
 A few doses will prove it's value, but you wont get fat on one bottle.
 All druggists. Ten cents for a trial bottle.
