TAKEN UNDER AMUSEMENT.
Justice Davis Will Consider the
Matter Of Boitano's Wheel.

The case of e. L. Zemansky, charged
with selling bicycle that had been
placed in pawn by j. Boitane before the
time for its redemption had expired,
was tried in the Police Court yester-
day morning.
Boitano, who said he is often called
John Brown" testified that he had
pawned his wheel to Zemansky, receiv-
ing 81 30 on it, and that a verbal agree
ment was entered into that he should
have thirty days in which to redeem it,
though he was given no ticket showing
that it had been left in pawn. When
he called for the wheel he was informed
that it had been sold
Mr.. Cronan, business manager for
Zemansky, introduced the books in
which the transaction had been entered.
They showed that Boitano had signed a
bill of sale for the wheel. The bill was
marked IN. t., 80 days." which Mr..
Cronan explained meant that no ticket
had been issued, and that the wheel
was to be kept for thirty days, as Boz
tano was considered a suspicious per-
son.
Several witnesses corrobOrated both
Boitano's and Cronan's statements,
and at the end Justice Davis took the
matter under advisement until Mon
day next.

A FUTURE STAPLE.
Fine Quality Of Hemp Grown Near
Grid1ey, Butte County.

Secretary Of the State Board Of Hor-
ticulture Lelong has now on exhibition
in his Office at the Capitol building a
number Of specimens Of hemp grown
near the town Of Gridley, in Butte
County, and they will compare favor
ably with any grown in favored east
ern localities or in Europe.
Until the past season the culture Of
hemp in California has been merely
experimental but experiments had sat
isfied the Butte County farmers that
their land was peculiarly adapted for
the successful culture Of hemp, and
last year over 1000 acres were planted.
The crop has been gathered, soaked
by the late rains, and in many instan-
ceS run through the hackleS, and the
product shows texture of superior
strength and quality, which would in
dictate that the culture of hemp will in
the near future be a staple industry Of
California.
Secretary Lelong states that the Grid
ley farmers planted their seed very
thick, to insure a fine growth of fib-
rous stalks, but that even then the
hight OF the hemp varied from fourteen
to sixteen feet.
Past experience has shown the cult
ure of jute in the State to have been
a total failure, and that hemp does so
Well-1t being in the same family with
Jute-Wlll be a surprise to many. Sew
eral thousand acres will be sown in
Butte County in hemp this year.

SCHOOL CENSUS BLANKS.
State Superintendent Black Thinks
He Will Have Enough.

State Superintendent of Public In
struction Black has computed the num-
Der of census blanks necessary for the
public schools in the State, and finds
he has enough on hand to go around.
The blanks will be forwarded to County
Suparint endents as soon as they indi-
cate the number required by them.
The State Superintendent thinks he
has enough of all blanks on hand to
run until the next Legislature meets,
when the State Printing Office will
again be opened, except school regis
tiers. The supply of the latter is ex-
hausted, and some counties are printing
them for use in the schools, regardless
of the general law which provides that
all such blanks shall be furnished by
the State Printing Office.
Other teachers, superintendent Black
is informed, are keeping their registers
on slips of paper.
