TheCitrus Fair.I On Monday next the citrus fair opens ini this city, in the Arcade building, Secondi street, between J and K. The front and
interior of the building has been trimmedwith palm leaves, giving a fine tropical ap-pearance. The building is large, and givesan excellent opportunity for a display ofcitrus fruit*. The western wing will beoccupied by Yuba, Butte and Placer coun-ties, each of which willbe represented bysuch a wonderful display of citrus fruitsthat visitors will be astonished, and thenatives themselves surprised, at the quality,quantity and variety. For the last twodaysexhibitshave been arriving on almost everytrain that came in from northern and cen-tral California, and the managers alreadybegin to exclaim, '\u25a0 What are we going todo with it?" The Horticultural Hall ofthe State exposition building wouldbe nonetoo large to hold this immense display ofcitrus fruit, which now bids fair to excel janything of the kind ever attempted onthis coast or in the United States. Theextent and value of the citrus crop in thesection which will be represented, wasnever dreamed of, and one of the greatestresources we have lias apparently sprungup and claimed its supremacy as if bythe touch of a magic wand. The orangegrovp3 of Los Angeles, San Gabriel andFlorida cannot at this early season of theyear make such an excellent showing, and
iat no season can produce such finelyflavored fruit, grown without irrigation.That this citrus fair willbe productive of
jmuch -good, so far as showing the possibili-j ties of our soil and climate, is a foregoneiconclusion, and is the beginning of what|willbecome an annual exposition, that willj grow with years, and willeventually causejall those who wish to profit in citrus cult-, tire to engage in that pursuit in thissection.iThe immigrant who comes down from thejdrifting snows of the Sierras ina few briefhours, and walks into this semi-tropicalexhibition, will experience a transition al-most beyond his conception.
This afternoon at ;:> o'clock there will bea meeting of the Executive Committee atithe office ofCharles K.Parsons. Itwillbejthe last meeting before !tie opening of tbefair, ami every member is expected to bepresent..
On Friday next the ExeculiveCommitteehave decided to have what they call SanIFrancisco day. On that day a cordial in-
vitation is extended to all Ike good peoplenf the bay cities to be present, and theywillbe admitted free. It willbe worth the
I while of everyone, who can spare the time,to visit the pavilion.
L. M. Holt, of Riverside, and editor ofthe I'ress ami HurticuituriH, will also bepresent and make an extensive exhibit ofcitrus fruits grown in that section.

An F.vanvei.ist Comas.—
A meeting ofthe pastors and laymen of the differentchurches of the city was held at tiie Y. M.C. A. rooms, on Thursday afternoon, to takeaction concerning tlie coming to this cityof Dr. L. W. Munhall, the famous evan-gelist, now workingat Los Angeles. Therewere represented the Congregational. Bap-tist, Presbyterian, Methodist South andMethodist churches. Rev. A. U. Herrirk,ofCalvary Baptist Church, in the (hair.Her. Difie, of the Committee on Corre-spondence, read a telegram from Dr. kfnn-hall announcing that he could reach Sac-ramento on Wednesday, the Kith instant,and that the committee had telegraphed,in response, for him to come on. Themeeting indorsed the action of the com-mittee, and proceeded to arrange for Dr.Muaball'a coming.

Tins is the last day of our bankrupt sale.We offer several Uses of white and coloredblankets at greatly reduced rates. BedHouse.
Itis also a littledisastrous to Mr.Wom-bles claim that he never stole anythingexcept a little tobacco from hi- father, thatbe should have tcstiiied in the SacramentoPolice Court May 1. 1966, in the CMof A.Polese, charged with receiving stolengoods, that he iWomblei had stolen andsold chickens to the defendant frequentlyincluding some black Spanish fowls be-longing to Frank Powell ;and that heshould go on to give the names of the boy-who also stole chickens, and give the de-tails of the thefts.
J. W. Womble, one of the Anti-CoolieLeague Club Presidents of San Francis-co, addressed a meeting of the Leagueon Thursday night, in which he en-deavored to vindicate himself from certainaccusations as to want of character. Itseems that he was a resident of Sacra-mento when a boy, and many now livinghere are willing to acknowledge the cor-rectness of that portion of his remark*which refers to his
"toughness. "
Accord-ing to his own account he was not so evil-dispositioned as he was queer: he had asingular idea of what constituted fun. Thisis what lie says:
"When 1 was a boy you
bet your lifeIwas a young hellion. 'I Wasjust at tough as they made 'em. All thepolicemen in Sacramento knew me. anddon't you forget it;but Inever stole nochickens. Now about that chicken racket.When 1 was about 14 1 was just full ofdevilish meanness, but it was jut boy fun.I'd he walking along, and may he ifidseea chicken, and Ihad a stir k 'in my hand,I'd break its legs or hit it with a brick, orsomething of that kiud, but Iwouldn'ttake it away , I'd just leave it there. J justdid it for fun. Well, a neighbor went tomy father and gut him to send me to theReform School, because he couldn't doanything mth'tne. 1 made a record in theReform School as was never beat by anyboy that ever came out ,of that school.Why. the last eleven months Iserved aachief of the police in the institute. Thefirst tilingIever stole in my lifeit was thepoliceman that made the charge againstme in Sacramento that got me to do it. Hegot he to steal tobacco from my father andgive it to him when he was driving adump-wagon ;but that was all I*ever stole.And afterward he wanted to get at me be-cause he killed the Poundkeeper with abrick, and 1 was the only one that saw himdoit." Inasmuch as there never was aSacramento Poundkeeper kil'.ed with abrick, Mr. Womb!e's Statements may de-serve to have a shadow of doubt thrownover them.

"Boss of the ItOAP."—As Mr. Mcln-
tosh, of Chico, was in the city willing tosell the pacer Fred Ackennan, not havinganother horse to take around the circuitwith him next season, and it being ratherexpensive to take one horse, C. H. Gilmanhas been considering the advisability ofbaying him for a roadster. At the trackyesterday morning he was talking with I.J. Williams, the well-known driver, rela-tive to Ackerman's speed, which Will-iams, he thought, eattmateotoo highly, andhe OtTered to bet $50 that he couldn't" drivehim a mile in 2:2.'>, in three trials. Will-iams accepted the challenge, though it wasrather ri>ky at this season of the yeai.when horses are short of work, and drovethe pacer a mile very handily in 12:l'1, atthe tirst effort, making the first quarter in57 m onds, and the half in 1:1:;, finishingwith a rush. Mr. Gilman, though he hadloet baa (Taper, was well pleased with thehone, and immediately purchased him for$1,000 and bil old pacer
"Foss." Acker-
man is a young horse, sound, of good dis-position ami a tirst-class roadster. He willbe the
"'boss of the road" when the River-
side opens again.
Conference with Salvation Army Officers.Yesterday the City Attorney and Chief
of Police sent for the Captain of the Salva-tion Army, with a view o f consultingupon the propriety of discontinuing theArmy's street parades. Agreeable to ap-pointment Miss M.J. Ross. Captain, andMiss L.A. Kiefort, Lieutenant, called atthe office of the City Attorney, and the triowere soon joined by Chief Jackson. Itwassuggested to the zealous workers in thecause of religion that perhaps much moreservice could be done by deferring the streetparades ; that these only brought togethera class dangerous to themselves aswell as to the community ; that there aremany desperate and disreputable personswho are Induced by the display to followthe army and create disorder, which at anymoment might lesuk in injury to person orprctperty, thus making the city responsiblein damagps. It was also shown to theladies that many citizens are complainingof the disturbances created by the noise ofthe crowds that congregate at the street-corner services, and which follow themaround the streets. The law relating tosuch disturbances was read, with a sug-gestion as to the rights ot citizens to enjoypeace and qtriet, and that no person or as-semblage of persons had any right to inter-fere with the comfortable enjoyment oflifeami property by any considerable num-ber of citizen*. It was particularly im-pressed upon them that at least for thepresent their street demonstrations shouldbe discontinued. Otherwise, some very-serious trouble might grow out of theni,which their work could in no wise com-pensate for. Captain Ross was firm in thebelief that great good was being done bythe street parade*, and that many soulswere being saved. And when the CityAttorney suggested to her that someonemight get injured or killed in these dem-onstrations, she replied : '• What does thatmatter if w.e save one soul from hill '.'"After exchanging view*upon this matter,the Captain and Lieutenant said : "Wewill go home and pray upon the subject,and ifGod advisee us to give up the streetparades we will do it!" They seemed,however, to think that God waswith them, and that the paradeswould continue. The City Attorneytold them that they must take theconsequences of any future disturbancesupon account of their paradc3 ; that the ad-vice was meant in a good spirit, and forthe best interests of all concerned. LftStevening the army did not parade.

LITTLEPOINTS.There are so many strong and
telling reasons in favor of trad-ing at our stores that some ofthe lesser advantages are apt toescape attention. Did you everthink what an advantage it is tobe served quickly ? To haveyour goods done up withoutshortages and errors in measure-ments ? Anyone who has everhad experience knows how un-pleasant it is to go back to astore and make the explanationsnecessary in order to have suchmatters righted. At best, it'san ordeal which people are gladto avoid. We do not, of course,claim for ourselves total ex-emption from errors. Far fromit. We do claim, however, thatour methods are the most per-fect in use
—that zoith a trade
very much larger than that ofother merchants, fewer errorsare made by far. In fact, tradeis now conducted here so cor-rectly, quickly and with littlefriction, that one hardly suspectsits volume.
