THOSE DEAD COWS.
Mayor Land Thinks the Report
Exaggerated.
Mayor Land last evening sent in the
following communication:
Coovaroanto Nav D4fb

Mayor Land last evening sent in the
following communications:
Sacramento, May oath.
Eds. of the Record Union: There
apeared in this mornings issue of the
"Record-Union" an article headed
Dead Cow Juice" in which it is report
ed that yesterday there were six dead
COWS seen in the water at the mouth of
the American River" which report l
| Immediately caused to be investigated,
and l find that the facts were greatly
exaggerated. Senator Fred Cox this
afternoon visited the locality and found
that two cows had been frightened by
some picnickers and had run into the
river. They were unable to get out
themselves and had to be pulled out,
and were almost dead. The parties
then killed the COWS and skinned them,
leaving the remains on dry land. Sen
atOr Cox says the report was greatly
exaggerated. I instructed A. Grubbs,
the City Scavenger, to examine the
river for these reported Juicy cows,
and he and his men started in at the
old gas works and followed the Sacra-
mento River up stream nearly one mile,
and also the American River as far as
Twelfth street. but they were unable
to find any dead animals, with the sin
gle exception of few bones of a horse
found on a sand bar of the American
River.
Kindly correct the report as publish
ed this morning. Very respectfully,
WILLIAM LAND.

The wheelway badges are not taken
as freely as they should be. The Sacra-
mento club is bending its energies to
keeping up the Folsom wheelway-and
it needs constant work-and to build
more mileage. The club itself gives all
the money it can afford. Why, then,
should not riders who use the path do
little something? Very little is asked,

Brazilian wheelwomen show a marked
partiality for American bicycles instead
of those made in France or England
although the latter wheels are much
cheaper there. None but well-made
wheels will stand the rough cobblestone
pavements of most South American
cities, and the women, after having
tested different makes of wheels, have
adopted those of American manufac-
tUre, as they find them the most last
ing.
The first drop-frame machine is said
to have been made in 1888 by w. E.
Smith for his wife, who is still an en-
thusiastic wheelwoman. This original
woman's wheel was neither so graceful
nor so light as the present drop-frame
bicycles. Only twenty pounds differ
ence existed between the weight Of the
wheel and the weight of the rider. Mrs.
Smith tipped the scales at eighty
pounds and the wheel at sixty. But the
next year saw both improved, as the old
wheel was forty pounds heavier than
the new one and Mrs. Smith had gained
forty pounds. Every year since then
careful attention has been bestowed
upon women's models by the different
manufacturers, and this year the drop
frame wheels seem to have attained the
acme of excellence.

What Shall W. Do wIth the Fireplace 2

An open fireplace is to house what
beautiful view is to veranda. 1t is full
OF suggestion, carrying ones thoughts
always out into the beyond, and ones
visions away from ones self. An archi.
tect who ignorantly robs us Of either
robs us of opportunities for which all the
brilliant other things he does can never
compensate. Even the minor architects
are beginning 10 understand this, and
are helping us to regain what we have
missed. For. il the truth must be told,
we lost our heads, not so many years
since, over modern conveniences, as we
did over labor-saving machines; and the
country householder was as pleased over
some contrivance for keeping her house
warm without the bother oil an extra fire
as her husband was over some farming
implements which saved him the price of
a second man on his place. In town the
case was even worse, for open fires we're
only regarded as one more means OF add
ing to the dust. 1t was quite forgotten
that, as some writer on the subject has
observed, lit might almost be said that
the good taste and SAVIOR. faire of the in
mates of house may be guessed from
the means OF heating it." 1t has since
been remembered that "old pictures, old
furniture, and fine bindings cannot live
in furnace-baked atmosphere, and those
persons who possess such treasures and
know their value have an additional mo-
tive for keeping their houses cool and
we'll ventilated"
1t is growing perception OF these facts
which has led to the extended interest
taken in all questions relating to fire.
places. In fact, as in former times "the
fireplace was always regarded as the
principal feature OF room, and so
treated in every we'll. hought-o t-scheme
OF decoration" so todayit has become OF e
of the first considerations OF an architect
planning an INTERIOR Harper's Bazaar.

Confidence and C0nceit.

What delightful people those are who
have the giit-tor it is nothing less than
that-of kno wing just when one is feel
ing the greatest need of a little comfort
ing, and who know how to offer it in
the most acceptable way.
OF course there are times when the CIV
ing am the rec iving Of sympathy be-
come regular offices. but there are other
less conspicuous times when one is par
ticularly n-hearted-conscious OF
things going against one, aud producing
a general inexplicable but understood
feminine sense of forlornness.
AS rule at such times woman must
complain and become bore, or she must
fight against her 'blues" alone, and in
her own way. But once in a while-Oh,
how rarely there comes her way one
with that divine gift of sympathetic
comprehrnsion-one who intuitively
feels her down. heartedness, and at just
the right moment offers her the right
word in the right way.
There is something peculiarly consoling
about this. The action, small in itself,
becomes great out OF all proportion.
There is a rush oil gratitude to the one
who has helped US back to our selfcon6,
dence at the time confidence is most
necessary.
Seltconceit and seltcon6dence are two
different matters. People often enough
need to be helped from the first as much
as they need to be helped to the second
The worlds work cannot be we'll done
by those who have not some con6denc,
in themselves as equipped for their con
ditions.
When conceit is gone it is gain, but
when confidence is gone there is many
times a need of that blessed one thai

Skating.

An experienced skating-teacher lays
great Importance upon the kind OF shoes
worn. "A great deal is said" he re-
marked, "about properly supporting the
ankle, and people complain that they
cannot skate because their ankles are
weak Now, in at least FIVE out of ten
of these cases, there is nothing at all the
matter with either the ankle or it's sup
port The trouble is right here" and he
touched the side OF his shoe just below
the instep and below the hollow OF the
foot. This part of the Shoe" he con
tinued, ought to be very snug and stiff
to hold the loot straight, and prevent its
twisting between the toe and the heel
That is what usually makes the skater
'wobblr' and lose his footing, and then
he thinks the trouble is with his ankle
The height Of the shoe does not matter
much - Harper's Bazaar.

Sir C0Idsnap's Ride.

Sir Coldsnap springs on his reckless steed
And rides from his Castle of Ice.
Through country lanes and city streets;
And his card. of strange device,
He tacks on the window Of every house,
From hovel to mansion grand,
And some folks shiver with nervous fear
Sir Coldsnaprides through the land.
But others laugh at the tyrant knight,
And brave his singing wrath;
And Others mock his scourg ing breath,
From the shelter OF glowi e hearth;
But there are some who cry, and shrink
Away from his blighting hand
oh, give them the aid to hold their own
Sir Coldsnap rides through the land.

The Vermont State Grange opened its
annual meeting at Bethel, last Wednes.
day morning, Master c. ]. Bell OF Hard.
wick presiding.
The master in his address brought out
the following facts about the order in
Vermont:
Since our last meeting 10 new Oranges
have been organized with an average
membership OF about rs. Some of them
are very active and doing good work
others are not so strong as we could
wish. Valentine Grange No. 234 has
surrendered it's charter after good work
for several years.
We now have seven Pomona Oranges
in the state. Since organizing new
oranges this year the necessity OF more
Pomonas is seen.
Our Legislature which adjourned the
first dav OF December, had busy ses.
sion. The House was composed OF farm
ers by quite majority, good and true
men, the wisdom and virtue Of the state
and, in looking about to see where re-
trenchment should begin, thought best
to begin on the farm.
A farmers Legislature, coming from
such State as this should be able to
stand together as one man in the inter
ests of her prosperity, to foster her every
in iustry, agricultural or otherwise
Thus we see the necessity Reorganization
and cooperation among the fam RS
that they may work or legsate together
understandingly.
