standard than they were year ago. There
were placed S23,S91.n at the disposal OF
the committee. All expenses have been
covered, and there is a balance OF s5S.S5

met by the appropriation and grant from
the State amounting to ss5O79, and there
is balance Of S1.21.
In view of needed repairs in addition TO
the general expenses, the committee make
the following recommendations First,
that the sum of $4,000 be appropriated for
public schools; second, that the sum OF
$500 be appropriated for evening schools.
Supt. Barbour's report was read, and in
it he pays high compliment to the teach
ers for their efficiency and evident desire
To advance the interests OF the pupils.
Arithmetic has been brought to a common
sense basis, vertical writing has proved
success and music has been strengthened.
The attendance has gained at least 100 dur

the town, with many OF the upper grades,
Is crowded beyond its capacity. More
teachers are employed this year than last.
The schools are i'm great need OF maps, ref
erence books and supplementary reading,

tlOu Ouuudy morning.
1t was about o'clock Sunday morning
when citizen on his way home saw three
men climb into a freight car in the So
called freight yard near central street, and
close the door of the car tight.
He at once retraced his steps to the
police station and notified Sergt. Louks OF
the opportunity he had to go tramp hunt
ing. Sergt. Louks notified officers Bloom
field and Couture who went to the car to
investigate the matter. AS they approached
the car they saw a volume Of smoke issu-
ing from beneath the car. They fastened
to the tear and slid the door back. I'm
mediately smoke and hot flame poured out
of the open door, forcing the officers to
one side. When the smoke had cleared
away to some extent the officers jumped
into the car and dragged three tramps
from the car i'm an unconscious condition.
A still alarm was sent to the broad street
fire station, and the men responding
promptly, the fire was put out. An in
spection by the firemen revealed the tact
that a large sized hole had been burned
through lhe floor.
Sunday afternoon the three men were
taken before Judge Goff of the Eleventh
District Court and were arranged on the
charge OF vsgrancy. They pleaded guilty
and were each sentenced to six months at
the State Workhouse and were committed.
The men gave the names James Brown,
George Thompson and Walter Newton.

ODD FELLOWS DAY.
How 1t Was Celebrated - Splendid
Drill by the Local Canton.

! The Old Pavilion at Sixth and M
streets was packed to its fullest ca
pacity last night, the attraction being
the seventy eighth anniversary of the
Independent Order of Odd Fellows
| An excellent programme had been
arranged, and some of the best talent
in the city engaged to render it. The
opening remarks by o. w. Erlewine
were well received, and the aria, "Dio
Passente," from Faust" by Signor A.
Abramhoff, won unstinted applause
| Miss Mable Love, in both of her Sc
| lections, was heartily appreciated, and
! encored.
| Past Grand Representative Grove L.
Johnson delivered an address in which
was traced the history of the order
from its inception to the present time.
1t was an eloquent effort and full of
interest to his hearers
Mrs. B. F. Howard, Mrs. c. A. NeaIe,
r. T. Cohn and Miss Pearl Noble were
each the recipients of great applause
for the creditable manner in which
their selections We're rendered.
At the conclusion of the programme
the Chevaliers of Canton Sacramento,
No. 1, Patriarchs Militant, under the
| command of Colonel Q. w Erewine.
gave an exhibition drill, the equal of
which has not been seen in the city
for many years. The manual sword
drill was executed with the precision
of regular soldiers, and the evolutions
were so we'll performed as to elicit the
heartiest applause. Many of the move
ments were entirely new, and each
brought to light new formations which
drew forth the applause of the specta-
tors. In the formation of the letters
representing the order the chevaliers
made a great hit and had there been
nothing else those present would have
been amply rewarded for attending.
On the conclusion of the drill dane
ing was INDUCED in, and until a late
hour the merriment continued, and
those who were in attendance will not
soon forget the pleasant evening spent
at the seventy eighth anniversary of
the Independent Order of Odd Fellows.

That Young Fellow.

Eds. Record Union: A goodly num-
Der of years ago L went to Oroville to
lecture on temperance. A young man
named George c. Perkins, a clerk in his
uncle's store, I was told stirred about,
lighted the hall, rallied the people, and
made himself energetically useful.
did not speak to him, but became in
terested from what was told me. 1t was
natural that 1 shall take an interest in
his history.
In course of a few years I began to
catch glimpses of him in the public
prints. He was manifestly beginning
to command the popular eye There
came a time when a political cOnven-
ton met in Sacramento. There were
several candidates for Governor, among
them the young fellow" already alluded
to- AS / had been long and rather wide
ly known in the State, a number of del
egates did me the honor to ask my judg
ment as to the fitness Of aspirants for
nomination. The entire list appeared to
be made up of very respectable men,
but the memory of other years impelled
me to say that If George c. Perkins was
fulfilling the promise Of his youth, he
would be a safe man. His early advan-
tages had not been at all extraordinary,
but his natural capacity, energy and
tireless industry commended him to my
approval He was nominated and elect
ed, and did excellent service in the
executive office. All subsequent steps
have been easy. Appointed by the Gov
ernor TO fill an unexpired term in the
United States Senate, he acquitted him
self so well that he was elected by the
next Legislature. without his presence,
to occupy for six years the post of use
fulness and honor which he had filled so
ably by appointment; and should any
of your readers have occasion to visit
Washington, go to the door of the Senate
Chamber and send in your name and
Senator Perkins will give you welcome
SO frank and full that you will long carry
the memory of it as a cherished expert
ence in your life. Let other young fell
lows take courage. NJ. c. BRIGGS,

THE WHEELMEN.
What the Wheelway Committee is Do
ing-An EarIy-Bird Squad.

The Capital City Wheelmen had
large and very interesting meeting last
night, elected several new members and
received a large number of applica-
lions for membership
The trophy cup, won for the second
time, was brought into the clubroom,
restored to its handsome case and
crowned with a beautiful wreath of
roses.
The Wheelway Committee reported
the gap" from Brighton junction to
Perkins Station at last closed by the
completion of the new path. 1t is now
a fine Wheelway, clearly separated from
the roadway and marked by posts
painted white 1t has been covered
with decomposed granite and sprinkled,
and is packing finely. One thin coat
ing of stone dust will be added, after
it has been used a week, and it will
then be simply perfect.
The wheelway has all been gone over
With a road machine from Perkins
clear to Folsom, and is now in as good
condition as is possible with the linn
tied fund on hand. If wheelway sub
scriptions come in more literally bet
terments will be made until perma-
nence is secured. Beyond Alder Creek
the path has been scraped around
what is known as the Cape Horn route.
This three-mile stretch is the only in
different section. 1t will be made per-
fectly good if wheelway ribbons are
freely taken
There are, say the committee, 500
cyclers in the city who have not yet
taken ribbons and most of whom use
the path. In common justice they ask
these people to contribute their mites,
and that, too, right away. The club
Itself is giving, up to June Both, the in
ltiatlon fees received from new men,
bers to be devoted to wheelway work.
If there is liberal help from the outside
twenty miles more Of path can be made
yet, part toward Roseville, and part
toward Florin from Perkins
Captain Shaw reported entries to
date for the events of the club on May
18th, in aid of the Children's Festival at
