WHEELING TO TRINITY.
A San Jose Cycler's Wager With g
Lady Friend.

w T. Briefly of San Jose passed
through the city yesterday awheel on
his way to Coffee Creek, Trinity Coun-
ty. He left San Jose on Monday
morning, and intended making Marys-
vile tonight. He had his blanket,
grip, lunch bag and other traps, max
ing quite a load, but he thought he
could reach his destination in four days
from the start.
Mr.. Briefly had bantered a wealthy
lady friend to fit him out for Klondike,
but she said he would not have the
courage to go into the mountains even
of Trinity County. He wagered he
could make Coffee Creek in five
days on his wheel, and if he
succeeded she was to fit him out in the
spring for Klondike. The wager was
accepted, and Briefly is pedaling away
manfully to win it.

of Distribution.

Judge Johnson, who some time since
took under advisement the petition of
Martin Rudech for the distribution of
the estate of the late Marco Mama, yes
terday filed his decree.
About the only items in regard to
which there had been any question were
the bequests to St. Joseph's Convent in
this city, ''the Catholic Church of Sac

A VISION OF BEAUTY.
Jai1er Beck1ey Has Charge of a
Lovely Indian Belle.

Constable Springstead of Elk Grove
yesterday brought to the County Jail
a klamath Indian and his squaw, who
had been committed on charge of
furnishing other Indians with liquor.
The squaw is the belle of the tribe
up north. and her rare beauty was
the chief topic of discussion about the
court house yesterday. Jailer Beckley
received so many applications for per-
mission to gaze upon the beautiful
daughter of the forest that he was con-
sidering the advisability of setting
apart certain hours to-day, when visi-
tors will be permitted to see her.
1t is, however, so unusual for an In
dian beauty to be seen away from the
tribal headquarters that Pop" Beck

A Tried Remedy for Bilfousness.

Those who suffer from disorder or in
action of the liver will never get the
upper hand of the unruly organ so long
as they use such irrational remedies as
blue pill, calomel and podophyllin. But
from the tried and popular medicine
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, they may
expect relief with a certainty of obtain
ing it. The influence of the Bitters upon
the great hillary gland is direct, power
full and speedily felt. The relief afforded
is not spasmodic. but complete and per-
manent. The sallowness of the skin, fur
red appearance of the tongue, Indigestion
costiveness. headache, nausea, pains
through the right side and shoulder, in
fact every accompaniment of the obsti-
nate complaint are entirely and prompt
ly removed by a course of this inestima-
bic medicine, in behalf of which testi-
mony is constantly emanating from
every quarter, and from all classes of so
ciety.

The Santa Rosa Republican terse-
ly, emphatically and intelligently in
dorses the movement to ask the Federal
Government to build a good road
through its own property into the
heart of Yosemite Valley. We can
not see how any objection can reason
ably be advanced against the propo-
sition. 1t has the merit of justice; it
is an asking that California has the
right to prefer. 1t will be ungracious
on the part of the Government to refuse
that to it is trifle, but one that means
so much for this State. But mere eX-
preston of such views will not do the
work We must appeal directly, and
it is such an appeal that the Record

are now ready, and every commercial

brary. Many communities are too
small to maintain such an institution
as it should
To all such we commend the example
Of the good women of Yonkers, New
York. They felt the need of a good
circulating library for their sons and
daughters. and themselves likewise.
Looking about for means to supply
this want they hit upon a plan that
has been in successful operation for
over twenty-four years. They formed
what they called a book club, which
was really a circulating library club.
membership, though there is nothing
to prevent the formation of several
such clubs in one community. The first
club was composed of twenty four
members. One of these was chosen
Librarian. At the beginning of the
library year this officer issued to each
member two books recently published,
and of recognized high character,
adapted either to youths or to read
ing by adults as might be decided up
on On the 1st and 10Th of each month
these books were passed down the line
of membership, one step at time
Thus it took just one year for the forty
eight volumes to make the circuit of
the club.
With every other change of move
ment two new books We're added, so
that at the end of year there were
seventy-two volumes from which to
choose. At the end of twenty-four
years and one month the twenty-four
members, or their successors, had each
read more than 900 choice volumes, and
had a large collection to which to
refer from time to time. True, this
was not a large library, but if well Sc
Iected 600 volumes read under such cir
culation afforded an amount of in
struction and intellectual pleasure not
calculable.
If instead of keeping the collection
the club had arranged to exchange vol
umes with a similar club in nearby
village or in the same town, the bene-
fits would have been augmented and
extended and the cost of the process
reduced one-half or more, provided that
the several clubs agreed not to pur-
chase the same works. Indeed, it is
conceivable that the system might be
extended so as to have an exchange
system between four or five clubs in a
county, the cost of effecting the ex-
change being trifing.
OF course, the success of any such
clubs depends upon the discernment
and literary intelligence of the Libra
rian, upon whom must devolve the duty
of selecting the volumes to be pur-
chased. The Yonkers club has been
so completely successful that it has
continued in existence nearly a quar-
ter of century, and in that time it has
had but three Librarians, one of them
holding the post for eighteen years.
We can see in such an arrangement
as we have outlined great possibilities
for small communities, and at cost
so widely distributed and collected in
such small sums that it is felt but
lightly by those who would be moved
to enter into such a scheme.
