What Woman Owes to society.

Woman stands as the sacred guardian or
future homes and our nations prosperity.
and TO her must we look for true reforms.
To her standard must society come. Let
her be sure to place il high and keep II
DeOpie Let her keep out those whom she
knows fan short of her standard, and
never cOndone in the stronger sex what
she condemns in the weaker. Let her
think not to elevate society by hiding or
condoning the evils which surround her
on every side. but only by shutting out
those whom she has found 1t impossible
TO raise to her standard Then future
generations will bless her for their heri-

SERVED HIM RIGHT.
White Man Given a Severe TrOuncing
by the Husband of a COIOred
Woman He Annoyed.

A white man, somewhat the worse for
liqucr followed Mrs. 'Tobe" Hudson, a
coiored woman, down Walnut street short
" after o'clock last night and persisted
in talking TO her. She told him TO not
bother her, but he dogged her footsteps
and, finally, at Eleventh street, she turned
and struck him over the head with her
parasol. The blow was q surprise TO the
man and he resented it by drawing back
his fist as though to strike her. The wom-
am g husband had witnessed the occurrence
from his bootblack stand in front of Make
peaCc'S barber shop and he hurried 10 the
scene and gave the white man first-Class
troUncing before bystauders interfered. The
HuGsons live at J65 Cottage Lane. There
were no arrests, as the SymDath!es Of the
crowd seemed to be with the CCiored man.
The white man slipped away without Civ
ing his name.

which IAN be grown in California that
would be more profitable to the farm

idea IN having me here is to afford the
farmers of Sacramento and neighboring
counties an opportunity to get what
information they desire relative to the
sugar-beet. In Chino, where l come
from, the profits on the beet crops
have been immense, and were l to re-
late some instances of the amounts

prepared to give any Information in my
power to any and all who may seek it.

that the farmers of Sacramento and adj
joining counties should take advantage
of this excellent opportunity to get re-
liable information regarding sugar-beei
culture.

RYE CROP NOT GREAT.
Production Not So Large az
Was Expected.

American Not So Large as
Was Expected.
New York.-A disappointing rye
crop is indicated by final returns to the
American Agriculturist. Instead of
some %, 900 900 bushels expected from
earlier indications. the crop of the
United States now figures out about
20, 600, 900 bushels, 900, 900 more
than last year and 1000. 900 bushels
less than in 1895 and 1894. The in.
crease is mainly in Pennsylvania, the
Western crop being quite disappoint-
ing.
Latest European crop advices are
confirmatory of serious shortages in
rye, and especially in Russia. Ger
many's rye crop seems to be somewhat
larger than earlier reports indicated,
but reduced estimates for France and
other counties barely offset this.
Stocks of rye at home and abroad
are lower than for years and export
demand for American rye continues
very active. Except during the fall
of 1886, rye has not been so slow
as at present since before 1890.
