SACRAMENTO, CarL, Jan. 1L—At the meeting of the State Board of Examiners to-day Attorney-General Fitzgerald moved that an emergeney bill be drawn up and present-d to the Legislature to provide for tue miltage expenses of the Presidential electors and the expenses of the messen- ger who wiil carry the vote to Washing- ton. The motion met with approval ana was carried. State Printer Johnson presented a claim for $75,000 for the next two years’ ex- penses, and asked for the approval of the board. The past appropriations were as follows: In 1889, $70,000; in 1891, $75,000; in 1 $50,000, and in 1895, $50,000. Gov- ernor Budd refused to consider the biil He said the board had nothing to do Irillt} as he said all along that there would prob- ably be a deficiency. Johnson, he said, bad bought new type to print tbe Code Commissioners’ report, had put in new electric machinery and had painted the bui'diag—this in the face of a shortage of funds. Upon the advice of Brown and Fitzgerald, Johnson withdrew his claim and will lobby it through the Legislature, as beretofore. He claims that the reports of the Code Commission, Bureau of High- aaded to the expense of his office, and that $75,000 is not a cent too much. Upon adjournment of the board there was quite a loud discussion of the matter between Budd, Fitzgerald and Brown. Budd reviewed the history of hisexpert scheme and accused Brown of refusing o allow Harrison, whom he had appointed expert, to look at the salary-roil of the State printing office, which he, as a private person, had a rignt to do. Brown replied fusal was made by Deputy General Anderson in a conver- tion to which he (Brown) had no part which be did not hear. Brown said that such 1mprovements as Johnson had | made were necessary and challenged Buad to deny that fact. Budd replied that Johnson had made such improvement when he had expressly warned him tnat | he wonld create a deficiency. “I toid him so when bhe presented a| salary-roll for services of employes when they were on vacation,” he declared. said Brown, nd at thet time,” 'vou d him to adopt a rule for over: e ment, which is not having its effect.” oot VANCOUVER'S UNIQUE STRIKE. Members of the Chain Gang Refuse to Work and Are Being Starved Into Submission. VANCOUVER, B. C, Jan. 1L.—One o} the most unique strikes on record is now engaging the attention of the authorities in Vancouver. For some montbs the city has been infested by crowds of most un- desirable visitors, and driven to severe measures by the constantly recurring laries ana highway robberies, the po- lice force received instruction to arrest on & charge of vagrancy all those who, hav- ing no visible means of existence, fre- quented local saloons and were 8 menace This was done, and a large number of men were sen- tenced to various terms on the chain gang. Though the ground was snow-covered, these culprits were put at hard manual Iabor, clearing vacant lots of brush and other similer employment. Guards armed with Winchester rifles watched them. The crisis came on New Year's day, when, in spite of the rain, the ganz was set at work. Ten or moreof them absolutely refused to turn out, and were removed to a cell whersin the temperature resembied thatof an icehouse and placed apon a bread ana water diet. Those who worked as they were required were given five bours’ labor instead of ten and rewarded with a regular New Year's dinner. The recalcitrant members of the gang are still holding outand are being fed upon the Some of the weaker members are showing evidence of their griess to capitulate, but two or thiee of the ringleaders are using all their pow- ers of persuasion to induce their compan- jons to stand firm. What possible relief from the present state of things the most sanguine of them expect is bard 1o see, as the whole advantage 1s on_the side of the authorities, and the submission of all the gang merely a matter of time. In the meantime the treatment accorded the roughs has had the beneficial effect of freeing the City in a great measure of this dangerous class. RIS - SRR PASADENA MYSTEEYX.

With the skeleton were implements of | the chdse and numerous trinkets of the bone and stone age. They included six | oreight flint arrow-heads, three or four bone spearheads and broken stone imple- ments having the appearance of hatchets. More curious still were a dozen small bones notcbed on the sides, having evi- dently served as records of important events. The oldest Indians in this vicin- ity have no recotlection of the body ever having been buried there. It is supposed, from appearances, that the body has lain there ior at least 200 years.

Experiments Prove That Robins Destroy Tree Pests—Identity of a Suicide Learned. SAN JOSE, Car., Jan. 11.—From ex- periments carried on in tbe orchard of George W. Cozzens, in the Willows, for the past month, it has been determined that the robin greatly aias the orchardist and vineyardist in destroying insects and scale pests injurious to the trees and vines. The appearance of the robin in the crchards at the time when the trees were bare and when the borer and other insects were beginning their deadly work convinced the fruit-grower that if the birds were amply protected they would nu‘mnaruuy inridding the orchards of pests. Early this season Cozzens gave strict orders prohibiting any shooting upon his place. ~ As a consequence robins soon gathered in large numbers. They were not molested or frightened in any man- ner and soon became very domestic in thelr actions. Four or five weeks ago Cozzens began to dig about his fruit trees for the borer and canker worm. The robins would gather in the immediate vi- cinity in large numbers and as soon as the dirt was thrown back from the root of a tree and the workmen had stepped away they wonld settle inthe excavation and hunt diligently for worms. They would F] | invariably find the hole in which the borer had entered the bark of the tree and draw out the pest and devour it. Examination of the trees which the robins had visited found them entirely free from worms and Cozzens is convinced that the robin is a valuable bird to the fruit-growers and one which should be protected by law. —— TREADWELL 1LITI1GATION.

He is well known here as the former manager of the principal theater in this city, and | since his arrival he has been besieged by | all classes of young women who want to | go on thé stage. His advice is “don't.” He said to-day: “The fact is, there is no more excuse for the average young lady—aye, or young man, either—zoing on_the stage, as they | eall it, than there would be for them to open & drugstore ot a dry-goods store just | for fun. There is no fun in stage work. | For the novice who has beea_attracted by | the bright glare of the footlights, who | has dreamed of fame, of securing the | plandits of an admiring maultitude, 1t all | fades when they get a taste of the work. | The fascination vanishes, and they find themselves engaged in the hardest kind |of labor. Of all the novices who go on the stage nearly one-hali leave it belore a ear, broken in spirit or health, or both. | Bo my advice to all applicants forentrance | to this life is ‘don’t. “There is room for talented young ladies and young mea in the dramatic | profession just as there are opportunities | for success in the law, medical or com- | mercial pursaits. But people do not enter those for fun; no more should they cross the footlights, If a young woman hasa bome and does not have to earn her own | living, or if she has a position, she is fool- ish to give up either for the uncertainties of dramatic work—uncertainties, for it is purely experimental for & novice.” platic: iy MUSIC IN STANFORD'S CHAPEL. Glee and Mandolin Clubs to Participate in a Concert at the Uni- versily. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Car Jan. 11.—A concert will be given on Friday, the Stanford Glee and Mandolin clubs in thecbapel. Present in- dications are that the clubs will be greeted by an overflowing house. This will be the first concert given by the clubs sinee their northern trip. During the evening an original song will be rendered. The worldls are by Colonel Frank V. Drake of Portland, Or., a poet of considerable ability. The music was composed by A. ‘G. Kaufman '97. The poem was recently received by Mr. Kaufman and is dedicated to the two clubs. The opening verses follow: They told us that the Stanford boys ‘Were comin’ to the town. 1 s'posed they were s lot of “dudes”; 1 be news made Manihy frown. ‘We sot ourselves (o keep our boys And giris from seein’ them; But, b’gosh, we all are trying now TG have them come again. In Californy’s early days I knew the Gov'ner well. A noble friend was he, and true, 'As all who know him teil: S0 when those young men got to town I had to go =nd see Them play and hear them sing and praise His University. 1 always thought no singing good Without a woman's voice. But when I heard those gentlemen It made my heart rejoice. ‘They had no trouble with thelr staves, And jumped clear over And marked the tune on mandolins, Mandoias and guitars. Shooting Affray atsMaxwell COLUSA, Cirn, Jan. 1L—During a drunken quarrel at Maxwell last night Jeffrey Marshall shot John Woody through the fleshy part of the leg, inflict- ing a painful bug, it is believed, not a dangerous wound.
