SMOOTH All SING.
How He Worked an I-Street Store
Keeper for Coin.

Yesterday Sam Lee, a Chinaman, went
to the Peoples Savings Bank to have a
couple of checks cashed. One was for
$3.50 and the other for $50. The checks
were not cashed, because the person
Jack Davis whose name was indorsed
on them, was unknown to the bank Of
ficials and had no money there.
Then the Chinaman began to think,
but it did not take him long to realize
that he had been made the victim OF
a confidence trick-and by one OF MS
own countrymen, at that.
About that time it occurred to the
bank officials that on the preceding day
a prosperous looking Chinaman called
at the bank and made inquiries con-
corning it's terms on time and other de-
posits. He spoke English fiuently, ana
said he was engaged in fruit growing
and mining in Placer County; that he
had many men in his employ, and had
money deposited in San Francisco, but
thought of having it transferred to this
city.
Just before departing he asked for
one of the banks cards, but changed
his mind and took a couple of blank
checks from the counter.
These were the checks that turned
up yesterday indorsed by Jack Davis. "
The fellow had worked them off on
the confiding storekeeper in payment of
a lot of stuff he had ordered, and then
took portion of the surplus in change.
All he asked for, however, was SO.
The operator was arrested during the
day by Officer Naghel. He gave his
name as All Sing. When apprehended
he was about to board a train for San
Francisco.

0NE-HALF THE LAND LISTED.
SUGAR BEET COMMITTEES
HARD AT WORK.
Much of the River Land Is Under
Lease, and the Owners Are
Handicapped.

The work of listing lands to be plant
ed to sugar beets is going on briskly.
The County Committeeman are taking
warm interest in the matter, and are
doing good work
Committeeman James ONeill and
VIM. Curtis have made partial can
vass of the district south of the city
and E. Greer and \. d. Hack will con-
tinue the canvass tomorrow, while
Daniel Mccarthy and E. l. Calvin will
work in the Lisbon District.
Daniel Flint and H. r. Thomson
spent yesterday in the Cosumnes River
section. They had fair success, and
think the farmers will appreciate the
opportunity offered them of bettering
their condition.
Secretary Coleman of the Chamber
of Commerce reported to the Oxnards
last night that 5000 acres had been
listed.
This is really an excellent showing for
the few days in which the committees
have been a work, but it must be ad-
mitted that these 5000 acres are among
the most available The other 5000
required may not be obtained as cas-
lily, though there should be really no
difficulty in securing the entire 10000.
There are hundreds of small land
owners who have not been called on
by the committees, and it should not
be necessary to call on them. If a beet
sugar factory We're erected here every
owner of an acre or five or ten acres
of good soil would have a market for
every pound of beets he might raise,
and all of these small owners would
plant every inch of their ground in
beets. Therefore, they should come for
ward and list their land.
Why, if there were beet sugar fac
tory here there would be not less than
fifty acres of beets raised in back yards
inside of the city.
There is one difficulty met with down
the river-very few of the landowners
till their ground They rent it out for
short terms of years, therefore until
the present leases expire they cannot
pledge themselves to plant beets. But
they are doing the best they can.
If a factory were erected here inde-
pendently of any guarantee Of a certain
acreage being planted to beets, there
would be no lack of beets to keep it
running. The fact that the crop re-
turns a good profit to the grower would
start everyone to planting beets. There
is no doubt about that, and even if all
the 10000 acres be not listed now the
Oxnards would be running no risk
whatever in erecting a factory.
Still, they might not care to expend
million dollars without the guaran-
tee they have asked for, and the only
thing to be done is for the committees
to keep right at their work and, if
possible secure the land.
The record-union., 1897-10-14

The committee recommended that
wherever there is a church there should
be rectory erected, especially under
the opportunities presented for erecting
rectories on the installment plan. It
also recommended that, in order to
awaken interest, all wardens should be
recognized under the Bishops seal. 1t
also recommended that each minister
should have the holy communion at
least once a week.
The report was accepted, several vot-
ing against it on account of its length
and the expense attendant on printing
II in the journal, which brought out a
report from Rev. SshurtIeff on the print
ing of the journal and the difficulties
attending it.
Rev. Mel said that the important pa
pers and records of the diocese had not
been kept in proper order by the late
registrar, and as they were liable to be
destroyed by fire, he declined to be re-
sponsible for them any longer.
The Bishop said that matter was
easily arranged, and to obviate the diff
ficulty. he would appoint Rev. Mel
as the new registrar, which he did,
amidst laughter, and Mr.. Mel accepted
as gracefully as possible, saying he
would Immediately arrange the papers
and take measures for their safety.
The Bishop then appointed commit
tees as follows:
Standing Committee-Rev. J. Par
fridge, Rev. J. P. Shurtlef, F. N.
Wickersham, r. Press Smith.
Missionary Committee-Rev. c. L.
Mel, Rev. W H. Stoy, Rev. James
Cope, Mr.. Brush, A. C. Tufts.
The convocation accepted the invi-
tation of Rev. Bullard to hold its next
meeting at Vallejo.
Rev. Bullard asked concerning the
$1,000000 fund, and the Bishop stated
that the fund was started as a centen-
nial thanksgiving of the church in this
country, but it did not fill, as many di-
oGeses did not favor it. The Diocese of
Indiana, he believed, had demanded
the return of its contribution, which
was complied with.
Mr.. Bullard moved that the amount
contributed by the California Diocese
be also demanded, as it amounts to
about $535, and could be used to good
advantage here.
The motion was amended to author
ize the Bishop to demand its return,
and was carried as amended.
A resolution to have the amount,
when drawn, placed in the endowment
fund was opposed by Mr.. Bullard, who
said the missionary work needed it far
more.
After some discussion the resolution
was adopted.
Rev. Sinclair said he had seen lit
tie chapel at Coloma that was not used
and he had been informed it was the
property of the diocese. He suggested
that the matter be loked up, and the
Chancellor was requested to do so.
The Bishop then arranged with the
different clergymen present as to the
