RICE MILLS PROTECTED

According to reports from Marys-
vile and Yuba City. several rice mills
are to be established in Sutter and
Yuba counties. One report is that the
Sperry flour mill in Marysville has
been leased by a San Francisco syndi-
cate, and is to be Immediately remod-
eled into rice mill. A second mill is
to be established at Live Oak. accord
ing to report which says that
Louisiana capitalists will back the
venture.
While these rumors have not been
verified at this end as yet. they are
interesting as advance signals of an
important new industry in this state.
1t is believed that within few years
rice growing on the adobe and tule
lands of Sutter and Yuba counties Will
have assumed large proportions.

CITRUS cRoP ESTIMATE

General Manager G. Harold Powell
of the California Wheat Growers ex-
change has issued an estimate of the
California citrus crop for the coming
year of from $4,000 to 10000 carloads,
of which about 1000 carloads will be
lemons. This is based upon detailed
estimates of the exchange shipments
at every shipping point in the state.
using the exchange proportion as a
basis for figuring the total shipments
from California. The outcome will, of
course. depend largely on the weather.
and the estimate may be increased or
decreased, depending on climatic con-
ditions. The fruit promises to be Of
good quality.
Al crop of 10000 cars is equal to
that of the 1911-12 season, and has
been exceeded but twice before In the
history of the citrus industry of the
state. Mr.. Powell says that the Cali
fornia Fruit Growers exchange mar
keted 81 per cent of last years crop,
the markets including all parts of the
country, and that the exchange re-
turned approximately $13.00G.640. The
cost of marketing the crop to the ex-
change was per cent on the gross
sales.

 F'iero and Carro are serving terms of from five to ten years in state prison, imposed at the September term of superior court. Faraci, who turned state evidence, charged Di- merio with the shooting of Mason and he was sought eagerly by Sheriff Brown and Deputy Sheriff Tubbs. Di- rectly after the holdup Dimerio es- capped. Carro and Fiero were arrested in New London and Faraci in East Lyme within 24 hours after the hold up. The conviction of the men was obtained only through the testimony of Faraci, as in the dark Mason and Messenger could not see well enough to identify their assailantS.
 Once Dimerio was located in New York and escaped before his capture could be effected The state police took up the case and had found a trail leading to Dimerio outside New York city. He got out of that locality month ago, when State Policeman Downing was in pursuit. but the chase was continued and with Officer Virel- lis assistance he was caught. The captors are arranging for the extra dition of Dimerio.

 ENJOYED THE FAIRGROUNDS.
More Than 100 Per Day Has Been Av-

The popularity of the Norwich play grounds thus far this season is con- vincingly shown by the figures of at tendance compiled by Director Welt for the season to date. For the first nine days the attendances were: At Pearl street S9S, at the Falls 907, at Hobart avenue SIP. and at Lake street 1,010, the total number of children being 3,627 In the interval of a little over a week. In the five days that GFeenevi1ie has been open the attend ahee was 59a, bringing the total att tendance for the five grounds up to 4,219, Thamesvilie is popular as well as the other grounds, but as it has been running but two days the attend : ance there is not yet normal. The Lake street grounds had the largest attend ance for a single day with 161 chil- dren, but the average daily attendance at all grounds is better than 160 per ground
 The scheduled games in the Play ssz0tz11ds Baseball leagIe will be played today in Mohegan park, Hobart avenue vs. Greeneville at 10 a. m., and the Falls vs. Thamesvi1le- Pearl at f.30 p. m. This consolidation of the Thames vile and Pearl street boys into a single team is due to the number of boys on the latter grounds who are engaged in summer work, and it will have the good effect of bracing up the team. The consolidated nine should be a strong one. and the boys expect to make up for lost time by starting out with a victory this afternoon.

Horse Created Much Excitement in It's Run Into the City and Is Some what Injured.

About 4.30 o'clock Thursday after noon a chestnut horse owned by
 Oliver Buddington of Eighth street got away from him and started off at % rapid run down Central avenue. The horse was not attached to any wagon, but had on a complete har- ness. On the way down Central ave nue- the runaway nearly collided with the bakery wagon of Marcuerelle and Sullivan and further down the road 1t nearly ran into a light driving wagon. Although a number of eff forts were made to stop the animal by people along the road, none was sue cessful and the horse kept on down Schofelds hill to North Main street and then through Main street across the, square and on to the store of Piaut and Cadden, where it collided with large Turnbull auto truck and was. brought to a standstill. At the time of the collision the auto truck was headed west on the right side of the road and the horse was going the same direction. The animal was not going very fast but it made no effort 10 turn out as it approached the auto truck. probably due to the fact that the slippery pavement made it's foot ing uncertain. When the animal struck the auto truck one of it's fore feet, got caught in the chain. The auto truck was immediately stopped and pushed back by several who wit messed the accident and the horses foot freed. The animal was led to the stable of C. K Bailey on Main street where it's wounds were dressed. It being cut about the breast left forefoot and one of it's hind feet. There was also a minor cut on the head. Mir. Buddington followed after the runaway horse, in a buggy and took possession of the animal at the livery stable
