will endeavor to arrange with the Cap
ital City Wheelmen to have them ap-
point a committee on home trainer pl-

have elsewhere. Entries should be made
either with the Capital City Wheelmen

Will be announced shortly.

Already the work of building the
booths has begun, and the carpenters
are making frames which will be covered
with chees cloth, and by the time the
management has obtained possession of
the hall these booths can be ready to
be erected. Some very fine designs are
being prepared, and Business Manager
Pease is Of te opinion that the Sacra-
mento Food Exposition, in point of
beauty of decoration of hall and booths,
viii be ahead of anything of the kind
ever held on the coast. Plenty of incan-
descent lights in the booths will add to
the attractions.

Why This is Thus

Il Re" months ago, il mem ,ry serve

were d~epiora"le, aud we're laid at Gle

was denounced for pursuing a course
that 'sent the gold out Of the coun-

A New York dispatch says that the
shipments at the rate of four millions
or 50 a day are the fault of no one in
partlcular, but that the outward
movement begins earlier this wear be-.
cause OF the opp ortunity to discount
usual conditiOns,' which is of course
satisfactory. Furthermore, rents
and Interest and dividends are stead
lily going over the water to foreign
owners OF property here. Queen Vic.
toria herself owns property in New
1ork. Great numbers of American
travellers in Europe expands lots OF
money there which has to go over in
gold.' That is hardly 50 o how
ever, as it is hard for us to believe
that all this transfer Of rents. interest
and dividends and this spending Of
money WAS not in progress while
Cleveland was in Office but begun i'm
medlately after the accession of Nc.
