Special 1o tho Record-Union. St. Paul, May 31.—A Seattle (Wash ington) special to the J'ioveer iVesa, says: One of the sleekest all-round swindlers is now en route east, having corralled everything in sight in this section. Last fall N. W. Flaisig formed a part nership with Peter Baumanof this city, as agents for the Garden City Billiard Table Company of Chicago. As early a.s last December, Flaisig made his first move toward leaving the city and his creditors, by attempting, during bis part ner's absence, to dispose of their goods J for cash. Flaisig's proceeding did not excite sus picion until early in May. Bauman was absent, and Flaisig seized the .oppor tunity to dispose of the stock and make his departure. Tho company got wind of the trouble and sent out an agent, who arrived the very day Flaisig left. Examinations showed that Flaisig made a clean sweep of everything of val- ue, and raised money on it, and borrowed money on fictitious securities. Since that time drafts on himself ranging all the way from $50 to J2OO have been coming in from towns along his route east, th( last being from Helena, Mont. The Garden City Company is out about $10,000. Tho agent says Flaisig left his young wife practically penniless. Four years ago Klaisig was traveling I for ihe Brunawick-Balke-Collender Com- 1 pany, making St. Joe his headquarters, and was discharged for loose business methods, lie the went into business in Salt Lake City, and wound up with a j large crop of lawsuits. After this he represented a Cincinnati firm, and threw their affairs into confusion by misrepre sentations, causing them immense losses. He was discharged by them, and then engaged in the last venture. ton man, his lust partner, is practically ruined, and several of his other vie! could ill spare their losses. PRENTICE MULFORD. Ills Dead Body Pound in a Canoo In Sheepsheari I",;■;.-. New Yoiik, May 31.—Prentice Mul ford, well known in New York and Cali fornia as a newspaper man, was found dead in a canoe Saturday afternoon in Sheepshead Bay. The canoe, named tho White Cross, had been drifting about aimlessly several days, and it was only the curiosity of boatmen that led to the discovery. Mulford had ap parently been dead" several days. The face was swollen and tho month bloody, but there were no signs of violence. The canoe was litted for a short journey. Mulford returned from California last Juno and became editor of the White Cross Library, a monthly magazine showing how results may be obtained in all business and art through force of; thought and the silent power of mind. n Monday he*announced that be would spend a month or two in and around New York, gradually working his way along the sound to Sag Harbor, his birthplace, and where two of his sis ters live. Ho was in the habit of going to lonely places and writing down his thoughts. Frequently he would wrib if possessed f two personalities, and En the canoe were found two lines penned in this mood. Forty-rive cents and a ch the General Con ference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, to ask the next triennial of the Sunday-school workers of the United States and Canada that they be placed upon the Committee of Btinday-schoo] Lessons; that they be placed on the N i tional Reform Divorce League of Boston, and to press upon the attention of the next and each succeeding Congress a bill providing that all Government em ployes be paid e00 tons displace ment, and will be one of the most offoct ive unarmored vessels in the world.

Before going out of his present branch of the department he will make various recommendations to Postmaster-General Wahastaker con cerning the postal service on the Pacific Coast, as requested. One of his recom mendations will be that the Pacific Coast Division of the Inspection Service be divided into two districts, each in charge of a superintendent, as it is too large a i task for tho division as it is now consti tuted to take charge of the sock i Service postal affairs for the entire Pacilic Coast.

Monday: For North ern California—Fair weather; warmer in East ern portion. THE TIME FOR IMMEDIATE ACTION The official visitation to the drainage ditch, that does not drain, has been made. The verdict is that not one-half the truth has been told. The situation is deplora ble, shameful. The unfortunate people lifing along the line of that nuisance can well quote us when, in opposition to pro cesses that filled the navigable streams, we invoked the legal maxim, "so use your own as not to injure another." We cannot continue to send down our sludge upon the people who live below the city. They have the legal right to invoke the law against us—they will be untrue to themselves if they fail to do so, in case we neglect to apply a remedy. The filthy, disease-breeding ditch ought to be closed at once. It is a menace to the city whenever a southerly breeze pre vails. The facts have long been known, but neither city authorities nor the people have taken any concern about them. The Trustees now realize that what the local press has said of the disposal of our sewage has not been exaggerated; that levees or no levees, streets or no streets, government or no government, some thing must be done at once in the matter of drainage and sewage disposal. But what can we do? A new sewage system cannot be put into operation at once; it will take considerable time. If we could begin work upon it in a month it would take a round .six months more to avail of a single subsiding tank. Bo sides, the money must be raised. Prop erty owners are not in a position to inter pose a single objection—they are estopped; the sewage of their lots will presently be turned back upon their drains; they must (jive the matter instant attention, there fore. The Record-I'm ox, which sounded the note of warning two years ago, and frequently ever since, and which has studied the matter with deep concern— having only the highest interests of the city at heart—offers a few suggestions. The Supervisors may be moved upon to clear out the drainage ditch, where it is most clogged, in the hope that as the wa ters fall some flow may be temporarily induced. In the meantime let us close the connection between the ditch and our sewor system; train the sewage as near to the river as a temporary channel will bring it; place the V street pump and others at that point, and throw the drain age into the river. So long as it is seen that this is but a temporary resort, no objection will be made, for the river wa ter below the city is not used for domes tic purposes. In the meantime lot a thorough house to house inspection be made and all wa ter kept running in closets shut off. There is much violation of the water or dinance in this respect, and the amount run into the sewers is greater than it should be in our present unfortunate po sition. We must economize water for tho present, to limit expenses, in order to gain a great good result. In the mean time, also, let tho Trustees advise the people and insist that no more porous cesspools be sunk. Such as must bo built should be cemented water tight that tho evil may be no more enlarged. The money expended in cesspool work amounts in not long a period to give us an excellent sewage disposal system. Let the Trustees also at once nominate an advisory board to collect facts con cerning chemical precepitation and any other plans for sewage disposal and report within thirty days. Knowledge on theso •übjects is plentiful and free, and an en ergetic board of public spirit can, within a month, arrive at a solution of tho present difficulty for the consideration of of the Trustees. Whilo that board is in vestigating for the good of tho city the Trustees can be busy enough with details of ways and means, and enter upon the formal process of legally pledging the credit of the city for a sewage system. If it is necessary to borrow $100,000 it must be done. If snap and vigor is put into the work wo can begin by September, when tho waten are lowest, to construct the neces sary works and thus entertain the hope of inaugurating some system by next Bprinjj. If we do not do this, we are ad vised that by legal process the drainage canal will be closed, and the result is not pleasant to contemplate; tho sewage of the city will be confined within the levees, and what that means it is un necessary to explain. THE PERMANENT IMPROVMENT OF CHICAGO. Tho Bulletin of the 27th ult. comments editorially on tho fact that the New York World recently published as read- IBs matter a five-column advertisamant of the World's Fair nt Chicago. Our con temporary expressos .some surprise and not a little regret at the fact that $7,000 or $8,000 of the country's money should be used to advertise the great world's expo sition as the late P. T, Barnum might use money to advertise a circus. Our only surprise in the matter is that our con temporary should expei'ience any sur prise at the action of the Director-General or the local Board of Control of Chicago. The Government of the United States ap- I propriated $2,000,000 to this world's expo sition with the condition that the place at which the fair should be located should add $10,000,000 to the fund. This created a fund of $12,000,000 to be used in making an exposition of the world's progress. The ten millions contributed by Chicago is just as much a part of the public fund as the two millions appropriated from the national treasury. The Nationaf Commission, upon which California is represented, have decided that not one dollar of this fund shall be used in pro motion of the exposition itself, but that all shall be deliberately and purposely devoted to the permanent improvement of the city of Chicago. That city offered, and the offer was accepted, a swamp ly ing on its southerly limits known as Jackson Park. This place was examined by Frederick Law Olmstead, the most celebrated landscape gardener in the United States, who reported that it was totally unfit for the purpose to which it was proposed to devote it. It could be made lit, however, by costly till ing, and this proceeding has evidently been resolved upon. The sum of the matter is that the $10, --000,000 which the Government required to be raised "by tho locality receiving the favor of having the fair held within its borders is to be devoted exclusively to the permanent improvement of this park and the construction of buildings which will constitute a permanent addition to tho value of real estate of the city of Chi cago and to its attractions as a city. The exhibitors throughout the world are ex pected to niako the exhibition ;md there by attract the gate money. The public appropriations are to be used exclusively in the construction of buildings in which to hold the exhibition. If Chicago is re imbursed out of tho gate movejr and the sale of the privileges—which she certainly will be—and if a surplus is created it all inures to the benefit of Chicago. That city will make fifty millions out of the j World's Fair. Her hotels,theaters.saloons, stores and street railways will get the lion's share of this money, but at last she will have acquired twelve million dol lars' worth of permanent improvements at the expense of the public. In this sit uation she stands disclosed merely as a showman and hence can afford to adver tise. The Bulletin says, with great sim plicity, that the practice of paying jour nals for booming the World's Fair may extend to the Pacific Coast. We express our deliberate conviction when we say that the practice has already extended to this coast, and that some metropolitan journals now sustain the relation of organs for Chicago in the premises. The World's Columbian Exposition has de scended to the level of a great Chicago show for the benefit of Chicago, and con sidering the inefliciency of the manage ment up to the present time, it is becom ing extremely doubtful whether the States which will make exhibits there will gain anything by the expenditure of their money or the outlay of their pains. So far as California is concerned, her most patriotic and enterprising citizens have entertained the hope that she would be able to present to the world her many attractions, producing a conviction of the existence of undeveloped resources here awaiting the awakening influences of energy and enterprise. Up to the present time evory effort in this direction has been foiled by the action of tho National Commission. That body seems to have desired nothing beyond conducting a great show at Chicago for the benefit of that city. Our contemporary need not be surprised at the altogether too evident venality of the New York World. It will have ample evidence of a like mani festation of venality on the part of its contemporaries before the case proceeds much further. AN ISSUE CLEARLY STATED. The San JJicgan, apparently interested in the political points to be made by the continuation of Maxwell to the headship of Department "li" of the World's Fair, Indulge! in a world of admission by what it deems a clear statement of the issue in volved. It says: "The question is, Shall we approve the appointment of a Califor nian who is not practical horticulturist, or shall we contend for the selection of a horticulturist who may not be a Califor nian?" It then proceeds to say that it believes it will be of greater advantage to this State to have a ("alit'ornian in the po sition, notwithstanding he is not a horti culturist, than to take the chances of a horticulturist being appointed from some other State. Thus the strongest and best advocate of Maxwell's confirmation ad mits that its candidate is not a horti culturist. In the name of common sense, then, why is he aspiring to a posi tion requiring a thorough and practical knowledge of a technical subject, and why should California, the first horti cultural State in the Union, have pro posed a man who is ignorant of the whole subject of horticulture? It is necessarily very humiliating to the people of this SUite to be told that those in the imme diate management of California interests in the World's Fair named a man for a technical place who possessed no tech nical knowledge, and boldly and imperti nently ask whether it will not be better to put this ignoramus in charge of the sub ject than to have intelligence from any other pai-t of tho world in control. We take the liberty of answering the San Dicgan bo far as we know tho senti ments of this State. The people of Cali fornia are neither so asinine nor so i greedy of place that they are willing to have their intelligence on the subject of horticulture discredited by the appoint* SACRAMENTO DAILY RECORD-ITynoy, MOKDAY, JTTSTE 1, 1891.—SIX PAGES. ment of one of their citizens to a position which he is decidedly disqualified to Till. The people of California are interested in having intelligence preside over the De partment of Horticulture, and when, as the San Diegan puts it, the question is raised, Shall we approve of the appoint ment of an incompetent from California rather than have competency and intelli gence in charge of the Horticultural Department of the World's Fair? we have nothing but scorn and contempt for the Californian who will answer thai California stupidity is preferred to alien intelligence. We again ask the question: Who put California in the position of being forced to accept an incompetent candidate or lose the place Whoever did this com mitted a wrong which should give him his next official position on one of Max well's coal carts. He or they know as little of the management of allairs relating to this great commonwealth as their candidate knows of horticulture. Ostentation at Christian funerals is deplored by George William Curtis. But no manner of preaching will lessen it. Let the leaders, those who ''set fashions."' have the courage to declare that simplic ity and plainess shall rule at burials, and in a year's time "display" at funerals will cease. We do not honor the dead by our dramatic, spectacular ceremonial and extravagant expense; we only pay trib ute to our vanity, and confess ourslavish ucss to fashion.

JN THE SPRING OF LAST YEAH Robert A. and Neal D.

After visitin many localities, they decided on the Cnpay Vjillpy, Yolo County, and the Rhodes tract ai Tancred. Negotiations wore opened with the Capay Valley Land Company, owning: tho tract iv question. With W. H. Mills, the General Agent of that company, they arranged for the purchase of about 220 acres oi foothill land. This being more than they had thought of taking for their own use, they spoke to a number of friends about it, with the result 'hat the tract was divided among the follow ing people: B. L. Hickok, 40 acres; W. T. Harnctt, 20 acres; N. T. Greathcad, 20 acres; Mrs. L. Greathead, 20 acres; W. McKay, 20 :.cres; N. D. BttrlMr, 20 acres; R. A. Karker, MO acres; J. P. Urownloe, 20 acres; E.

MORE CLEVER WORK. Two Desperate Criminals Run Down by the Police. "Bull Keck" Kelly and Jack Samson, the lowa Hill Robbers, in Cus tody—An Important Capture. The police have achieved another suc cess in the rogue-catching line. This time the victims of their vigilance are the lowa Hill robbers. The captures are most important, as tho prisoners are two of the most desperate and notorious highwaymen and stage robbers that the authorities have had to contend with sinco the retirement of Black Bart, and Dorsey and Shinn. a mo haul. On tho night of the 10th of this month J. Brown's big store at lowa Hill, Placer i County, was broken into by robbers and a dozen watches, ninety chains and thir teen diamond rings were stolen, the total value of which amounted to about $2,500. Every effort was made by tho Placer County authorities to run the daring burglars to earth, but they had disap- peared as mysteriously as they came, and there was absolutely no trace of them. Constable J. E. Dyer of Col fax, who was investigating the case, finally be cumo satisfied that the robbers were not hiding in that locality, and squt circulars to all parts of the coast, offering a reward for the arrest of tho burglars and also for tho recovery of the stolen property. A complete description of the jewelry was given. Several of those circulars wers received by tho police of this city, and Chief Drew had them distributed among his officers. He instructed them to keep a sharp lookout among the pawnshops and "fences" for the property and report to him if there were any developments. SIMMONS ON DECK. Officer Simmons, one of the sharpest and most vigilant of the Chief's men, v.iis the first to run on to a clue. This was about a week after the robbery. Ho found ono of the stolen watches in a Sec ond-street second-hand house, and also learned that the property hud been dis posed of by none other than the notori- ous Tom Kolly, alias "Bull Neck," and Jack Samson, stage robbers and ex-con victs. The officer promptly reported his dis- covery to the Chief, and then further in- vestigatiou followed. It was learned that Samson and Kelly, after selling the watch, had gone to San Francisco, and from other evidence that was discovered the officers were satisfied that Kelly and Samson were the men who had cxc- i cnted the "job" at lowa Hill. Chief Drew telegraphed immediately to Chief Crowley of San Francisco, and that indefatigable official went to work immediately with the assistance of his competent corps of detectives. They were not long in learning that the stolen jewelry was being sold rapidly in that city, and by redoubling their efforts suc ceeded in running one of the burglars, Kelly, to earth last Friday night. ON SAMSON'S TRACK. From Kolly the San Francisco officials lerned that Samson was in Sacramento, ami was to meet Kelly on the Yolo side of the bridge yesterday morning when the Oregon express arrived. Kelly had a complete kit of burglars' tools in liis pos session, which he said he had just pur chased, lie and Samson had picked out two safes in this city which they in tended to "crack" when Kelly arrived with the tools. The authorities here were notified of Kelly's statement, and officers Arlington and Biggins were detailed by Chief Drew to go over to Washington and capture Samson when he put in an appearance. The officers went across the bridge shortly after midnight and waited for de velopments. Their vigil was long and tin some. The express was an hour late, a;'.tl they had seen no signs of Samson. Finally the train arrived and passed on into this city, and STILL TUKY SAW NOTHING Of their man. About half an hour later, however, when they were about to give up in distrust, they saw tho outlines of a man stealing along near the railroad track. Led that this must be Sam and made a dash for him. They covered him with their revolvers and made him hold up his hands while they handcuffed him. it wa.s Samson, and he surrendered quietly. Samson was interviewod by Chief Drew and Captain Lee yesterday, but he only laughed and refused to divulge any- thin-. "I did that sort of thing once," he 6aid, good naturedly, "and got ten years for it. Since then 1 don't do any talking." Constable Dyer was notified of the I lire, He took Kelly up to Colfitz Saturday, and will bo down for Samson to-day. Both Samson and Kelly are criminals of the worst type, their specialties being rai king and stags-robbing. Both an; old-timers, too. and were pals of the notorious Mickey Delaney (who was re cently sentenced for twenty years for a amfe-robbery la El Dorado County), Bill Bono, Dorsey, Shinn and others. Sams on is now 50 years of age and has spent half of his life in prison. While serving a term in l'olsom some years ago he affected an escape by crawling through a sewer, but he was afterwards captured in Marysville by sin ritls Cunningham of Stockton and McCoy (now deceased) of Yuba. "Bull Neck" Kelly has only been out of Kolsoin a few months, having just fin ished a. term of five years for the burglary of Halo Hms'. store in this city. He has also served two long terms for stage robbing in this State and in Nevada, and Several short ones for minor offenses. Kelly is a most desperate criminal, and was a fit companion for Samson. The authorities breathe easy when they know that both are behind the bars. OJficer Arlington recovered two more of the stolen watches, which had been sold in this city, last evening. CHRISTIAN WOMEN. The New Organization Is Growing Xcry Rapidly. The healthy condition of the Young Women's Christian Association, which was established in this city only recently, is sot forth in detail in the report of the Qeneral Secretary, which has jußt been submitted. The report says "The opening reception f the Young Women's Christian Association was given j Ifonday evening, April l.uh. Sines that time we have held over2oo—6o associate, active ami 66 sustaining members, we have jriwi; lv lessoos in physical gymnasium.

Arrangements have been made for the next three weeks with three of the pastors—-Brothers lloskuison, iluU'hiusaud Needham. "Twenty-five Uibles and fifteen hymn books have been donated for this work, und it is hoped that in the future many profitable and delightful hours will be nt in studying (iod's Word and sing ,■! praises. This is certainly the most important department of our work as a Young Women's Christian Associa tion. Wo have furniture —carpet, tables, dishes, chain?, books, etc.— to the amount of $474 35; §293 GO of this has been do nated. "In addition to this, we have received £lf>l 2."» money donations, beside the fifty six su stain ing members, who pay monthly all the way from fifty cents to $5. "The sustaining membership has paid in to date $7n. We have received $13H from membership fees, §J8 25 from the Del sarte class. $7 90 from the dress-making, from the music class and $17 50 room rent, making a total of §1,013 10. This docs not include- the donated services of some of our teachers, the daily news papers, nor tho piano which has been kindly loaned to us fay J. F. Cooper. "For the past ten days we have set a lunch from 11:30 a. k. to 1:36 r. m.; the uumber of patrons increases daily. "An intelligence bureau has been opened, and a small fee will be charged girls seeking employment. "The average number of daily visitors has been eight, making a total of 368, many of whom are among the Christian people of this city, who have invariably given us their sympathy, wishing us suc cess in our noble undertaking. "Home evangelization is a duty second to none. The command, 'Co ye into all the world,' means our immediate neigh borhood, as well as our State, our nation, and the uttermost parts of the earth. We are to begin at and from Jerusalem, and then go forth. Our own beautiful land, our own city, our sons and daughters, brothers and sisters must have the Word of Life. "Whatever wo neglect, we must not neglect tho home. 'The stream will not rise higher than tho fountain.' 'The heart gives character to all its issues.' Our ability to do good, our success in be getting lolly Christian character abroad will be measured by what we are, and what c are doing at home." AT DIXON. The Sacramento Turners and Friends Have an Knjoyablo.Timc. One of tho pleasantest excursions of the season was given yesterday by tho members of Sacramento Turn Verein, who with their guests to the number of about 300, spent yesterday in Dixon and its beautiful adjoining park.

August Leeper, a barber, who recently arrived in this city from Los Angeles, tried to commit suicide by jumping into the river at Front and N streets yesterday afternoon. The man is believed to be either insane or suffering from delirium tremens. lie was seen wandering a! tout the river front, muttering to himself and gesticulating for some time. Then he boarded a barge which was moored to the wharf and, taking off his clothes, jumped over board. Several persons who had witnessed the occurrence ran to the rescue and suc ceeded in hauling the would-be suicide out of the water bareiy in time to save his life. lie was then removed to the Receiving Hospital, where he was treated by City Physician Nichols, and was soon out of danger. Leeper believes that he is being pur sued for committing bigamy, and sought the river in order to elude his pursuers. FATAL ACCIDENT. James Lioiteher steps in Front of a Moving Train. An old, decrepit man, named James Leitcher, a laborer by occupation, was struck by the Stockton train at Brighton Station at 4 o'clock yesterday alternoon and fatally injured.

The gem of the evening was the cornet solo, with original introduction, "The Centennial Polka," by Mr. Charles B. Eilerman. Frequent reference has been made in a complimentary manner to the artiKtie work of this young man, whi>, on this occasion, far surpassed any former eliort. The selection was replete with triple tongueing and legato runs, most difficult of oxocution, which was rendered with brilliancy and ea*e, and with a grace, power, quality and feeling that readily places Mr. Eilerman in the front rank —in fact, in line with Herman Ball stadt, who gave this same selection when herewith (filmore.

At the Congregational Church this evening the testimonial concert for Miss Gertie Carly-Auld will bo given. It will bo her farewell to California, as she leaves to-morrow for Europe to coiupleto her musical education. The story of this young lady's musical progress is familiar to tho community which takes pride in her advancement und looks forward to her return with interest. She has a deli cate bird-like soprano, flexible, pure and sweet, and well managed. Since she has been under instruction in San Francisco she has greatly improved. The hope ex pressed by San Francisco critics con cerning her is that she may develop tho physical strength essentiali; that is. that training of her voice, which is of rare quality, may not thin it more. But she is young and with careful physical traiuing has everything in her favor for future eminent success. The concert this even ing is a benefit to aid the young singer to pursue her Europeau studies- Tho pro gramme this evening is varied and prom ises to be very enjoyable. C. A. Xeale will be musical director and will lead a well-balanced orchestra of instrumental ists who have volunteered. There will also be tho novelty of guitar orchestra accompanying Mrs. Carter and Mr. Cohn is "Greetings and Partings," words, music and direction by Miss Eugenia A. Kelly. It i*s said to be a work of much merit. Pro fessor O'Malley will give a trombone solo, with orchestral accompaniment. Miss Kittie Hey man, the accomplished pianist, and Miss Wittenbrock, a piano soloist of high promise, will appear. Mrs. Neale will also appear as accompanist. Mr. Horace Crocker will contribute a number also, and still others whose names are not at hand will take part. Miss Auld has two numbers on tho pro gramme. Mr. C. M. Prodger will be manager of the concert. No seats are re served, but tickets at fifty cents are for sale at all the book and drug stores, and it is desired that the peoplo will procure tickets to-day in order to facilitate tho rapid seating ofcthe audience. The house ought to be tilled, not only because there is going to be a good entertainment, but for local prido in and assistance to the talented young singer whom Sacramento claims as its own. It may bo addod that the San Francisco press has unanimously indorsed her and predicted for her a brilliant future. Her last concert there, say.s the Newt Letter, was a success "ar tistically and in point of enthusiasm." Of the same entertainment last week tho Argonaut also spoko in high terms, and tho Philharmonic Society recently paid her the high compliment of givinghera lead ing soprano's place in its last concert. At tho Metropolitan Theater this ovon ing "The Fakir" will be given. It is a musical farce-comedy in threo acts by Paul M. Potter and Harry L. Hanilin. The company is large hnd is represented to bo thoroughly competent. Mark Sul livan, a prominent low comedian, has the leading part. In the troupe are Max Ar nold, Lizzie Derious Daly, Katherine B. Home, Rosa Franco, Alt' Hampton and George Mitchell. Music und Drama of San Francisco speaks of Alice Carle, Stella Ellis, Eva Randolph and Lillian Markham of this company as four nota bly talented singers and comedy act resses. Thero is no extra charge for re served seats. City Finances. City Auditor Young makes tho follow ing report of the receipts and disburse ments of the city for the week ending Saturday! May 30th: M.

Just Like a "Squaw-Man." Officer Wilson arrested a slovenly appearing Chinaman on I street on Sat urday and placed a charge of vagrancy against him.

BURIED UNDER FLOWERS. The Graves of Veterans Made Beauti- ful With Roses. Memorial Day and Its Observance in Sacramento—Newton Booth's Tribute to tho Dead. Decoration Day dawned with threat ening clouds in the sky, and in the early part of the forenoon a light sprinkle of j rain began to fall. There were occasional showers until 1 o'clock, when a heavy Storm set in, and for a time it was thought that the street parade by the Grand Army j posts, and militia would have to be j abandoned. The military were assembled at the Armory promptly at half* past 1 o'clock, but as the rain was falling heavily it was deemed prudent not to order the men out at that time. In half an hour, however, the shower abated, and the Brigade Staff, Signal Cor; >s and Kegiment marched up L street to Tenth, the starting place. The Grand Army posts had also been await ing a cessation of the rain, and upon tho arrival of the military the parade was at once started. The streets wero very muddy, and it was with difficulty that those on foot managed to navigate the thoroughfare. There was no escort of police, Chief Drew having been Informed that in all proba bility there would be no procession. A squad of Hussars, on foot, were in tho lead, followed by Grand Marshal J. R. Lai no and bis aids. Then cameßrig uuiei'-men?s Relief Corps, Ladies of the Grand Army of the Republic, members of Lie various posts, and many others Visited the cemetery. and Strewed Uowers on ihe graves of veterans and on those of their relatives and friends.

The Theater was packed and many I who came late could not gain admssion. Aside from the fact that the programme was rather too long, it was a most sue ;ul affair. The numbers were ail re i with liberal applause. Among the features of the exercises j c the recitations of the little Misses Edith Renwick and Mabel Carmichael, the former reciting "Sheridan al stone and the latter "chickamauga."

When General Grant was in California m »79, Captain Korwin Pie otrowaki said to me that he was anxious U> see the only man who had aver com manded a million men in the hold. The remark startled me, but reflection con vinced me that he was correct. The ac counts we have of the Immense armies of the Bast in ancient times are doubt colored with oriental exaggeration, it seems incredible thai the immense army X. i xes is said to have commanded when I he attempted the invasion of Greece, I could have been subsisted with the methods of production and transporta t. it then in me. Napoleon said at St. Helena, thai the maximum of his armies was six hundred thousand men. The number of men, however, is only one of the elentt nts of military force. The kind oi weapons is another. The musket.-, and other small arms of Napoleon's soldiers wore muzzle-loaders with Hint locks uud of short range. What would now be called accurate or rapid firing was im possible. The improvements in artillery have been equally important. Facilities of transportation of men, munitions and provisions constitute another and im portant element of military force. Napo leon never saw a railroad or steamboat. His marches had to bo made on foot and his transportation was by wagon*. When these things are taken Into consid eration, I do not believe that the com bined military.forces of Hannibal, Citsar and Napoleon, at their maximum, equalled the awful enginery of war under control of Grant, when he was made Lieutenant-Geiieral and took command of the million of men who were enlisted in the Union armies. rxwonniY critics. "I have heard men who never set a squadron in the lieid, who never sinclt gunpowder, except from a fowling-piece, who did not know the difference between an order to present arms and right j shoulder shift, criticise Grant and ascribe i his success to luck. What would such I men have done if the tremendous re sponsibilities that devolved upon him, and which might have staggered an At las, had been placed upon their Lillipu tian shoulders. Grunt received his com mission of Lieutenant-General in March, '64. The war had been waged for three years, with awful loss of lite but without decisive results. Gettysburg, Vicksburg and Chattanooga had been fought, the .Mississippi opened, but the National Capital was still menaced, and the ulti mate result hung in perilous balance. On the 2d of May Grant crossed the Kupidan, and the tremendous duel between the armies of the Potomac and Northern Virginia began. It opened with the aw ful battle of tho Wilderness. It was fought in a heavily-timbered country, with a, thick undergrowth. During the engagement tho woods took fire from ex ploding shells, and hundreds of wounded from both armies, no one knows how many, perished in the flames. "Tiu; contest between these two armies lasted for nearly a year. It was a duel to death, and never was a contest more bravely fought. We devoutly believe that the Confederates fought for a cause that was essentially wrong. That its suc cess would have moved back the hand of civilization on tho dial oi'time for centu ries. To disparage their courage, their devotion, and the skill of their leaders is to deprecate the heroism and leadership oi our own armies. Soldiers of the Grand Army. As foemen they were worthy of your steel. As your brothers in blood who fell on the wronsr side of a family quarrel, they are entitled to j your sympathy. Their valor and self- sacrifice is a part of the heritage of our com- j uion country. Brave men respect brave j men the world over. They can rejoice in j their own triumph without exulting j over the defeat of the fallen. It was a i part of the grand strategy of war, that Sherman should move against Johnston, with Atlanta as his objective point, sim- j ultaneously with Grant's movement against Lee. Early in September, Sher man occupied Atlanta and cutting off n >m his base began his memorable march to the sea. The moral effect of this suc cessful march is incalculable. It will long be celebrated in song and story. It is the romantic incident of tho war. A CIIKTSTMAS ritKSENT. "Sherman himself said that as a mill- j tary achievement it did not compare with i his campaign northward through the ,'arolinas. On the 25th of December he sent a telegram to the President making him a present of Savannah as a Christmas gilt. Soon after he began his northward march, and in January was at Golds! >oro, N. C, where he could prevent Johnston re inforcing Lee. In November previous, tho great Virginian, the grander Ameri can, General George 11. Thomas, had de feated and practically annihilated Hood's army at Nashville. Foot by foot, con testing every inch ot ground, the army of Northern Virginia, under the matchless leadership of Lee, fell back towards Richmond. In March r(x> the toils were dosing around it. A part of the Union j forces bad gotten to the southwest and were cutting off its supplies. As John- J ston* could not join Lee and fall upon (rant, the one chance of the Confederacy now was that Lee could join Johnston and defeat Sherman. The victory ot Sheridan at Five Forks closed one line j of retreat. The capture of Petersburg followed immediately, and Lee advised i Davis he could no longer protect Richmond. It was evacuated, and on the ;Jd of April the Union troops took possession. We in Sacramento had cele brated the fall of Kichmond previous to that, but we were a trifle premature. The occupation of the Danville road closed another line of retreat and cut off Lee from the principal source of his supplies. "From the Ist to the 7th of April battles and skirmishes were of daily occurrence. Lee's army was disintegrating by this terrible attrition. At the battle of Sailor's Creek the Union army took 7,000 prison ers. But one hope was left to Lee. If he could get to Lyehburg he would be in j reach of supplies and might reach John- I ston. That gap was closed by Ord and i Sheridan on the 7th of April. On that day lrant sent a note to Lee to the effect thut as further struggle by the army of Northern Virginia was hopeless, he asked his surrender to stay the effusion of blood. Lee answered that he did not con sider its condition desperate, but asked what terms would be granted. Grant re plied that the soldiers should surrender their arms and agree not to light until exchanged. "On the >sth the Union army was in a position to! annihilate Lee's forces or compel their unconditional surrender. Grant, suffering intensely with a nick headache, spent the night of the Bth at a j farm-house bathing his feet in hot water and applying mustard plasters to his wrists and the back of his neck. He found no relief. Jn the morning, half blinded with pain, he mounted his hoi m and set-out for Sheridan's headquarters, j He had to make a detour to avoid tho J Confederate lines, and did not see tho white Hag that had been hoisted. On tho way he was intercepted by a messenger with a note from Lee asking him to meet him at McLaine's house and arrange tho terms of capitulation. Instantly his head ache was gone. THI-; WELCOME DAWN, "\u wonder! The dark night was passing! Day was dawning The cruel war was ending. Peace was spreading her white wings in the sky. Grant had probably not taken 1F his clothes for many days and nights. Ho had on a slouched hat, a much worn blue blouse. He had no sword, and there was nothing in his dress to distinguish him from a teamster, except his dingy shoulder straps with their faded stars. Attired as he was, with a few of his general officers and Staff, he hastened to the house desig nated by Lee, and there the two great leaders met. The contrast was striKing, Lee had a commanding presence and was every inch a king, lie wore, as befitted the occasion, a new uniform resplendent with gold hue and all the decorations of his rank. "The nun were typical, even in the ac cident ol dress. Lee had the bluest of the blue blood of Virginia in his veins, lie was descended, I believe, from Light lorse Hairy, of the revolution, or from the same family. He had been the favor ite of the old army, and prior to 1861, Common consent, was regarded as the corning successor of General Winfleld Scott. lie was, perhaps, the best living representative of the landed aristocracy that for years bad dominated the South. They were leaders of public opinion, political action and social law. High spirited, brave, hospitable and generous; affable With equals, kind, with a trace of condescension, to inferiors in positiou. They believed thai sla\ cry of the African rice w;is the corner stone of social order. They were of opinion that social order was divinely ordained, and were con vinced that it was a part of divine ordi nance that they should be on top. "Grant ha i*s,,m,. military experience, j but in a very subordinate capacity. He had resigned from the army, tried busi ness pursuits and not been successful. A t the beginning of the war he was a !erk in a leather Store, so little known that the Congressman of his district, though living in the same small town, wai not acouainted with him. No one ever offered hisaerricss to his country from purer motives of patriotism. Al- j must by accident he was made Colonel of t!j« Illinois Twenty-fourth.

Grant of that democratic instinct that will sacrific all in the discharge of duty, and whose patriotism at a white heat takes on the fervor of religion and is re sistless. "The meeting of these great leaders, at the close of the conflict of these mighty forces, is a subject for a painting such aa history has seldom offered. "Grant says that at this meeting, in- Btead of a feeling of joy, he was oppressed by a sadness which almost overcame him. Contrast his feelings and conduct with what Alexander's or Caesar's or Na poleon's would have been under similar circumstances. GRANT'S MAGNANIMITY. "After a few minutes of friendly con versation, Lee suggested that the terms of capitulation ought to be in writing. Grant, as he says, sat down at the tablo without a thought as to the words he should use. Out of the fullness of heart the mouth speaketh. Fast as pen could liy the terms were written in Grant's own hand. They were magnanimous even be yond Lee's expectation. Lee said the stipulation thai the Officers should retain their side-arms and horses would have good ellect, and accepted the whole. Lee suggested that most of the horses, in use in his army were the private property of the men. Grant replied, 'They may take them. They will need them in put ting in their crops.' Lee said his army was famished. Grant made an order for the issue of necessary rations, told Leo to appoint his own officers for their distribu tion, and tiie chieftains parted. "When you reflect that civil wars en gender the nercest passions, that at their dose it is the rule that vengeance follows victory, you will admit that the magna nimity of the terms of the surrender wero the crowning glory of their author and of the cause he championed. They are a tilting pendant to the most sublime utter ance heard on earth since the Sermon on the Mount, 'With charity for all, with malice towards none, pursuing the right as God giveth us to see the right.' rlhe war was substantially closed. Let us pause briefly and estimate its cost. Ab solute accuracy is impossible, but I believe that no one who has studied the subject places the loss of life on both sides at less than five hundred thousand men. That is equal to five times as many voters as were in California at the close of tho war, or twice as many as there are now. The national debt was increased to about three thousand million dollars. In addition, probably live hundred million had been paid from current revenues and by States and counties. If you take into consideration the destruction of property in the South, the expenses and losses on the Confederate side were quite as large. If you add the loss ot diverting the labor of a million men for four years from pro ductive pursuits, you will have a grand aggregate of more than eight thousand million dollars. That is a sum equal to the taxable property of California co-day multiplied by eight. It would take the personal property and improvements of sixteen States like California to defray the expenses and make good the losses of the war, the country's progrks>. "Was it worth it? Five hundred thousand lives, eight thousand million dullais on one side of the balance sheet, the results of the war on the other, how does the account stand? Since the close of the war the country has progressed in population and material wealth by leaps and bounds. In 1860 the population of the country was thirty-two millions, in cluding three million'slavcs. Now it is sixty-lour millions, all free. Thank God there are no slaves to enumerate. At the beginning of the war the estimated value of the property of the whole country was sixteen thousand million dollars; now it is sixty thousand million. But great population does not make a great nation. If it did China would be the greatest nation on earth. Vast accumulations of wealth have often been precursor of national decay. While the increase of general wealth has In en marvelous, its concentration is appalling. It is easy in times of national peril to find men who will light and die for their county. What we want is a people who will live for their country—tor its honor and glory in time of peace. We must make it a part of the public mind and conscience that no man, no corporation, is so great as to be above the law; no indi vidual is so humble as to be beneath its protection. If wo shall succeed in this —if we and those who come after us shall be true to the great idea of country—to the principles of j civil liberty and equal rights—then the precious blood that was poured out in the war will not have been shed in vain. The gains to humanity will be incalcula ble. If we fail, the heroes of that great epoch will have builded a monument to their own honor and to our disgrace. '•The past at least is secure. The up rising of a people in a great cause is a Chapter in history which time will never i obliterate. Emancipation will never be wiped out. The memory of the humblest soldier who fell in the ranks from sense of duty is a heritage as precious to hu manity as the fame of the great leaders who have emblazoned their names on the pages oi history. America has given to the world two men matchless in purity of character and loftiness of purpose. Two stars have appeared in the highest heaven in the constellation of great men, whose light, with ever-increasiug efful gence, will stream to the remotest age— Washington and Lincoln." NOTES OF THE DAY. A requiem mass was celebrated at tho Cathedral on Saturday morning for the deceased members of "the Young Men's Institute, whose graves were also dec j orated with Uowers. At Grangers' Hall the Ladies of the Grand Army gave a lunch in tho after noon to the Sons of Veterans. Samuel Anderson, an old veteran, was knocked down by a horse on Fourth street and guttered severe and painful in juries. THEY "HUSTLED." Ward and Hustin Succeed in Paying TsTanaftHl Ginsberg. Hustin and Ward, the Sacramento ball players, who jumped their contracts with Manager Ginsberg and stole quietly away j to Portland, Or., where they were arrested on warrants telegraphed tiom this city, have agreed to pay back what money they owe the Sacramento Manager. Police officer Wilson was to have started for Portland early on Saturday on the Oregon express, to return the men to Sacramento, but a couple of hours before train time Mr. Ginsberg received a dis patch from his attorneys at Portland stating that the two bail-players were willing to settle with the Manager. This was all Mr. Ginsberg wanted, and the officer did not go. Ward and Hustin were indebted to him in the sum of about $300, and it is quite probable that Man ager Barnes of the Northern League came to the rescue of tho men by giving them the necessary funds with which to square the matter.
