THE M'ADIE DANGER Line.
What the FOreCaSter Doesn't Know
About the River.
Last Year He Raised His Limit TO
Twenty-Eight Feet, But has
Forgotten 1t.

The river was one inch higher yestef-
day than on Saturday, having reacneu
% feet Z inches. This gives Forecastet
McAdie of San Francisco an oppor-
tunity to say that the river is nearly
up to his so-called danger" Line OF
% feet
Bv the wav. what has become of Nc
Aides promise to change his ridiculous
danger line to % feet? When the peo-
ple along the length and breadth OF the
Sacramento River began to guy MIN
year ago about his danger bulletlnS'
he announced that he would raise the
limit to % feet, but he seems to nave
forgotten This fact.
The fact is, the weather forecaStef
is a tenderfoot who doesn't know any
thing about the Sacramento River, ana
strange to say, the San Francisco pa
pers-whose editors ought TO be better
informed daily echo McAdie's dan
ger line song.
Whenever there occurs a good shower
Of rain he issues a river bulletin, IN
which he forecasts high water and
refers to his imaginary danger line.
These bulletins have caused telegrams
TO be sent to the Record Union from
San Francisco every night for week
past asking for immediate information
regarding the high water, the extent
of the flood, etc.
If McAdie would come to Sacramento
and see for himself the ten or twelve
feet of bank exposed along the river
in this vicinity, even while the water is
within sixteen inches of his self -estab-
lished danger line, he might be con-
WINGED of the absurdity of his river
bulletins.
McAdie ought to know that % feet,
or even 2S feet of water in the Sacra-
mento River at this point does not en-
danger anything except the tule basins,
for even since he was placed at the
weather wheel in San Francisco the
river has been up to % feet without
exciting anyone but himself.
In January, 1895, the Sacramento
reached 2T feet here, and in March last
year it rose to % feet, but flooded
nothing except the low swamps. The
present stage of the river is not higher
than the average during the spring
months, and there is no occasion what
ever for these daily illusions TO danger
lines, which give the impression abroad
that disastrous flood prevails in this
section.
Nothing short of 80 feet of water ex-
cites any interest among people up this
way. and even then the only danger is
to the lowlands.

Concerning Licenses.

Eds. Record Union: have a small
store and pay licenses to both the city
and the county At the melting held
at the Chamber of Commerce, reported
III your Sunday edition, it was devel-
oped that 40 merchants in this city pay
$4,000 for city licenses alone.
How much do they pay the county ?
Anyhow, some COO Of these merchants
pay twice as much as the 100 remain
ing.
Of course this means that the 100 are
the larger men; but any license syS-
tenn is unequal and rests heaviest on
the smaller men. l shall accept the
invitation to attend the melting Tues

ADJUSTMENTS.

Miss Ida Fuller, the sister of La
Ioie," by many pronounced far su-
perior as a danseuse and as a hand
somer woman and Of more attractive
stage figure, appears at the Clunie Op-
era-house tonight and all this week.
Miss Fuller is said to have surround
ed herself this season with a strong
supporting company of acknowledged
dramatic and vaudeville artists. The
Marysvile Appeal" of yesterday said
editorially, in Speaking Of stage peo-
pie being puffed beyond merit: Here
in this city the other night a better
performance was given than La Loie'
ever gave. The performer was La
Loie's' sister. They were short in
only one commodity-the promoter of
publicity Miss Fuller's company
numbers some exceedingly clever peo-
pie, we are assured, headed by Carl
Smith, who is favorably remembered
with his own company here
couple of seasons ago. Miss
Fuller's programme opens with
q new drama as a curtain raiser, fol-
lowed by a snappy variety perform
ance, clean, wholesome and amusing.
She introduces all the electrical and
calcium light effects known to such eff
fects as she gives, and has every ap-
pliance necessary to complete presenta-
tion of the fire, lily and other dances.
Tonight she will present four distinct
dance scenes of the brilliantly illumin-
nted order.
Concerning Ida Fuller, the dancer
whose season is announced this morn
ing TO begin here tonight, the follow
ing anecdote has come under notice:
Miss Fuller recently finished an extern
sive tour of Europe. dancing in Spain,
Portugal. France, Germany Sweden
and Russia, in some of which she had
novel experiences. In Spain she was
appearing at the beginning of the Gu
ban revolution, and not speaking Span
ish as fluently as she might, she was
unaware of the antipathy existing to-
ward Americans. 1t was her custom
to close one of her dances with an IL
Illuminated and beautifully colored
American flag entwined about her
body Unaware Of the feeling existing
she closed her dance as usual When
the lights were thrown upon the Amer
lean flag her equanimity was dis
turbed by a storm of Kisses Not know
ing the cause. and her patriotism be-
ing offended, she continued to flaunt
the "despised rag in the face of the
Spanish public. The Kisses and ieers
Increased, but her determination was
stronger. until at last in sheer ad-
miration of the pluck of the little
American the Spaniards' Kisses chang
ed TO bravos and for the courage she
displayed in the face of such a DEM
onstration she became a strong pub
lie favorlte.
