a called consultation was held last
evening by a number of the officers
and members of the Society for the

The resolution was unanimous that a
fund ought to oe raised and a neucleus
formed for the provision of a Childs

final disposal and the finding of homes
for unfortunate little ones. 1t was
unanimously agreed that the thing is
not only possible, but that it must be

GEMS OF THE ORIENT.
Rev. Haskett Smiths Lecture on
Armenia and Its peopIe.

One OF the most interesting and en-
tortaining lectures ever heard in Sac
ramento was that delivered last even
ing by the eminent Orientalist ex-
plorer and orator, Rev. Haskett Smith,
NJ. A. In the clearest and most lucid
manner possible he gave an absolutely
impartial and unprecedented account of
the true facts of the difficult Armenian
question, throwing a flood of light
upon many points which had not hith-
erto been brought publicly forward,
and sweeping away many misconcep-
tions and inaccurate ideas
He showed what a serious and i'm
rortant question underlies the whole
matter, and how the settlement Of the
difficulty has been delayed through the
general fear of bloody war ensuing
upon the taking of practical steps by
any of the great Powers He gave a
graphic description of the national
characteristics both of the Armenians
and the Turks, showing what a clever,
astute and willy people the former are,
and how indolent, ease-Ioving and eff
fete the latter.
The part played by Russia and Eng
land in the matter was also clearly ex-
planned, and then the audience were
taken in illustration and description to

The Chief of the Weather Bureau,

the daily forecast to all parties desir
ing them by the postal card and logo
type system. There are at present 193

days. OF those seventy-eight are dis
tributed to various parties in Sacra-
mento.
Director Barwick of the Weather Bu-
reau office says that all parties desiring
the daily forecast sent them and who
will so inform him and send rubber
stamps with their addresses will be
supplied the forecast each day.
Merchants and farmers living in
nearby towns and who receive their
mail daily, not later than 6 p. m, can
get these forecasts by notifying Mr.
Barwick of their desire for them. Such
places as Davisville, Dixon, Woodland
etc, where the mail from Sacramento
reaches these towns at an early hour
could easily be furnished with the fore
casts. Anyone can have them, as they
are issued for no special class but for
the entire public.
The postoftices in numerous towns in
nineteen counties are supplied from

good. from the violin solo of NJ Adler
to the dear old song, Home, Sweet
Home" by the Ladies Choral, who op-
ened the programme with the chorus,
The Skylark," and closed it as above.

his 'BedOuin Love Song and charmed
the audience with The Lost Chord

compelled to respond to an encore of
the march from The Queen of Sheba, v

the audience kept on cheering until he
reluctantly came forward and repeated
a part of the solo.
