The general Appraisers of goods passing through the Custom House have made sev- eral decisions lately which, until passedupon by the Secretary of the Treasury, will hold good.

AN L-STREET QUARTET.
Three Women and One Man Taken
in For Vagrancy.

Officers Pennish and Bailey yester-
day took Laura Haver, May Miles, Miss
Gaynor and John D. Lee away from
the Establishments and temptations OF
lower l. street and landed them in the
city prison, and they will be called on
to answer to charges of Vagrancy.
The Miles woman has been under pO-
lice surveillance for some time, and
twice within the past week has been ac-
cused of relieving white men who
called on her of their ready change.
On March 2Sth ]. c. Tovey, an old
gentlemen whose home is at Red Bluff,
complained to the police that the wOm-
an took so from his pocket, and on
Sunday last John Thomas reported that
he had been relieved of S26. Thomas
story, however, was slightly mixed, and
the amount of his loss ran the gamut
from S6 to S26.
The Gaynor woman is said by the pO-
lice to have been the bosom friend of
May Miles. Laura Haver is we'll known
to the police. All the women are ne
crosses. Lee was, it is said, living with
one of them. The police department
evidently believes that six months ir
jail for each of the parties named would
benefit the community.

| Sacramento was represented in the
naval battle in Manila harbor on sun

ron and the Spanish war vessels and
shore batteries.
| Arthur Tyler and Peter Morgan,
members of the crew Of Dewey's flag
ship, the Olympia, formerly played in
the First Artillery Band of this city

which c. A. Neale is leader. They were
then in the railroad companys employ,

the advice of Knox and other leaders,
and had to seek employment elsewhere.
Tyler and Morgan finally secured po-

ship Baltimore but We're transferred

he visited his relatives here, just prior

Interesting Batch of Photographs
Taken in Alaska.

T. n. Koening of this city is in re-
ceipt of a dozen photographs of Lake
Bennett and vicinity, taken by his
friend, Samuel Phillips, who left for
the northern gold fields in February
last
The lake lies just over the Chilkoot
Pass, and that Mr.. Phillips had an eye
for effect is proven by the interesting
subjects he has reproduced. One scene
represents a stack Of provisions-not a
large stack, either-and on the back of
the card is this legend: 1T cost $1,000
to get this grub to the lake"
Others of the pictures represent
scenes on the lake and in camp. and
the entire lot are both interesting and
