ADJUSTMENTS.

The Wallace Big Shows gave two
performances here yesterday and very
handsome and attractive street parade.
The shows are all they We're announced
to be. Plural they are, for there are
no less than from two to four perform
ances going on at one and the same
time. This is a bit confusing, tbs
true, but it seems to be the order OF
the modern circus The features of
the rings and platforms are all good,
women far outnumbering men in them,
and there is not a weak act in the lot.
The riders are excellent, the stock su-
perior, though somewhat heavy in
flesh, and the acrobats, tumblers, racers
and specialists, with a number of aer-
ialists, are as good, or better, than any
who have ever shown here. The Nell
son family of nine persons are Won
ders as acrobats and athletes and the
Stirk family. trick wheel riders ana
tumblers, are not much, II anything
behind them. The features OF the
shows are all altogether too numerous
to recapitulate, and are almost Devil
dering in their variety, br1liiancy ana
rapldity of presentation. The menag-
erie section consists of twelve cages
of animals, a band of camelS and drom-
edaries, two elephants, some Oriental
cows and a fine group of ponies. Inc
main attraction in that section is a
cage of three very fine lions. The 9TH
er animals are not especially attractive
and are few in variety. All in all, the
Wallace Shows are excellent, ana
worthy of patronage.
Seats for the Sam T. Shaw engage
ment, beginning tomorrow night at the
Orpheum, are now on sale for any OF
the nights of the weeks course.

THE SCHOOL OF DESIGN.
A Saturday Glass to be Opened To-
Day,

The Sacramento School of Design at
the City Art Gallery, under the aus
pices of the California Museum AssO-
citation, has had it's first week up to to-
day of the new term, and it has been
a very satisfactory one. Professor
Jackson is so much encourag ged that he
proposes to open a Saturday class
again, beginning to-day, which he will
personally instruct, and which will be
maintained as long as there is a suffl-
cient number Of pupils entered, which
there ought to be.
For twelve years these Saturday
classes have been great conveniences
for those who cannot attend regular
courses, and though they have seldom
paid expenses, the Museum Association
has labored to keep them up, because
of the great benefit they have proved
to be to all who have entered them.

Investigation of the War Department.

It is the common report that persons
who are not now charged with negli-
gence or incompetence will be caught in
the net of inquiry, while others who are
openly accused will be found blameless.
If an inquiry should be made into the
cause of so much sickness outside the
army it would be found that many people
who think themselves in good condition
are really caught in the net of disease.
Many of them are losing strength SO
slowly that they do not know it. TO
build up strength and enrich the blood
use Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. 1t is
good for any arrangement of stomach,
liver and bowels, and nothing equals it
for dyspepsia and indigestion.
