Carroll and two other officers . arretted four young men at a house on Sec- i ond street, between J and X, and booked a ! charge against them of visiting a room where I opium is smoked. On being searched at the < station-house, a sealed letter wss found in the possession of one of the arrested parties. It is said cfii-jer Carroll opened this letter. Yes terday the defendants were tried upon the charge against them, and the facts elicited were that the four were found in a room, one lying on a blanket spread out in the middle of the room, and the others disposed in various situations about tbe room. Neither of them were found smoking opium, nor was there any opium smoke in the room, but the officers testified that they sroellad the fumes of opium in the room. The defendants were discharged by tbe Court, there not being ! sufficient evidence to convict. After the case was concluded a complaint was hied with ; Justice of the Peace J. C. Tubbs. charging Carroll with having comtt-itted a misdemeanor in opening, reading, and causing to be read, > the letter mentioned above, be not being j authorized to open the same, either by the i writer of the letter or the person to whom it was addressed. A warrant was issued for Carroll's arrest and placed in the hands of Constable William J. Cooper for service. i < Carroll . was . arrested, brought befcra the , ' Court, and made a deposit for bis appearance, j The case was set for trial on Tuesday next, at 1 o'clock p. M. Charges were also pre- • furred against Carroll before tbe Board of { Polka Commissioners. •' : -' '. ' P"'*!

What the Organization Is— A Gathering at Rocklin To-Day. A gathering of n.embers from Bodges of the Ancient Order of United Workmen located at Sacramento, Rocklin, Auburn, Newcastle, Lincoln, Wheatland, Dutch Flat, Colfax, Folsom, Elk Grove, Gait, Placerville, Georgetown, Blue Canyon, Coloma, Nicolaus and Marysville, is to take place to-day at a pleasant grove near Rocklin, and furnishes occasion for some timely remarks concerning this Order, in which there is so large a mem bership, and which, in this State, has bad an almost phenomenal growth. Some fifteen years ago a mechanic in Pennsylvania con ceived the idea of enrollirg his fellow work men in an organization to secure to the assigns of each, on death, a given sum tf money. Ojt tf that man's effort has grown the order Which has, in so brief a space of time, at tained such great proportions. The organ ization has no capital stock, say its friends, save the pledge of each member to pay a given sum when called upon, nnder the pro viso that he shall not be so called upon oftener than occe a month, and that the sum to be paid on the beneficiary certificates that the Order issues shall cot exceed the sum of $2,000. A part of its capital stock, they also bold, ia found in the fraternal principle that is the ruling sentiment of the Order, Oa that it rests its claims, but ita members are free to admit that great numbers enter the Order simply to secure the benefit iv the shape of the life insurance certificate it issues. How ever, they add, as insurance at the minimum of cost is a great aim of the Order, that ob i ject, when it prompts men to enter, is a ! proper one, and thereby men are brought within the fraternal circle, and benefited by ita teachings and its restraints, who would otherwise neglect not only to provide fur the SUPPORT OK THEIR FAMILIES In the event of their own decease, but would not enter into that fraternal relation with their fellow men that they should. In any light, therefore, the Workmen claim that their organization is one that addressee itself ' most strongly to the people as a proper one to j be promoted. It is free from political or re ' ligious bias, and makes no question concern- | ing men* beliefs, creeds or political affilia- I I tions. It inculcates those charitable principles ai.d those doctrines ot mutual aid and fraternal regard and conduct that are common to moat of the secret fraternal brotherhoods, such as I the Odd Fellows, the Red Men, and like Order*. The question that moat seriously addresses itself to the thoughtful person is I that of the coat of insurance in auch an organ- I ization. As to this, say the members who have given it study, the experience of some fifteen years haa been such as to demonstrate that the Order is a success as an insurance in stitution, and that it is the most economical form of insurance known. In those years the Order claims that it has passed its younger members from youth to middle age, and its old members from middle age to old age, and the eldest members of its early history to the grave, and has thereby satisfied itself fully as ! to all the risks and all the matters of life ex- . pectation, etc. THK GRAND BODY Id this State requires that there shall be kept constantly collected and on hatd a sum suffi cient to meet the call for the payment of a Dumber of beneficiary certificates at £2,000 ' each. To do this, say the officers, it has been found that the assessments amount to from $12 to $18 per year per member. Added to . this is the cost of lodge maintenance, which is some $0 more, and thus the cost of the insur ance is determined. Some six years ago the < Order was established in this State with a single lodge and about 100 members. It now has 220 lodges and over 15,000 members. Its lodges are located in nearly every section ef : the State, but are more plentiful in the cen tral than in any other portion of the jurisdic- ■ tion. Each lodge is required to employ a competent physician as a medical examiner, I and before acy applicant is received he has I | to undergo a rigid physical examination, and j be found to be at leaat an oroinarily good I , risk. After admission he is closely watched, , and is liable to lose all if his conduct in life < acd habit is such at to increase in any marked 1 degree the liability of his death, and it is ' claimed that in this respect the Order exer- j cises a powerful restraining influence upon a , vast body of men. From the last official re ports at hand, it is learned that the Order in California paid out in $2,000 lots, by way of j insurance, the past year, over $108,000, be side a very considerable sum of money for the charitable £ _ _'•■.;. . RELIEF OF DISTRESSED MEMBERS And their families. In 1881, out of a mem- ' bership of nearly 14,000 there were "Jo deaths, > or a death rate of 670 in the 1,000. The c average age of members at admission is shown to be 30.03. . Some other interesting facts are also shown ; as, that there is a con stant tendency to an even grade of the death rate, and again, that the most deaths do not occur among thosa most advanced in years, as for instance : the death rate for ths ages 21 to 25, is lin 113 ;20 to 30. is lin 151 ; 31 to 35, is lin72 ; 36 to 40, is lin 62 ; 41 to 40, is lin 67 ; and 40 to 49, is lin 42. Be- ' yondß these age?, the reports give us no fig ures, but the conclusion drawn is, that the I rate is abont as shown in most of the tables of Actuaries. The present officers of the I Order iv California are; Clay W. Taylor, Past Grand Master Workman, Shasta ; W. i H. Barnes, Grand Master Workman, San i Francisco ; James T.

Steamboats went up the American river as far at Brighton in 1852, and also in 1862. Since that time no steamboat has entered the American. J. T. Card 11 some time since conceived the idea that he could navigate the river from Sacramento to Folsom, a distance by river of thirty-six miles. He endeavored to get the American Bridge Company to put in a draw, so as to enable him to navigate the stream. The bridge company refused. Card well brought suit against the company, claim ing that the American Was a navigable stream, and that the bridge company in question must, according to law, maintain a draw. The bridge company re fused to put in a draw. CardweU bought a steamer— the Daisy— Stockton, brought her to Sacramento, and demanded to be per mitted to pass up stream. The bridge com pany refused, from the fact that they had no draw in their bridge. This necessitated CardweU to place hii steamer above the bridge. By the use of rollers and house-mov ing apparatus he succeeded in taking his boat from the river and conveying it around the bridge into the river. Wednesday, about 1:30 P. if., the boat left the Twelfth-street bridge for Folsom. J. T. Cardwell wa* the Captain and Jessie Waddle pilot. When they started there were about sixty-five invited guests aboard. Among them were Supervisors Bailey, Dre man, Beckley, Christy and Butler, Deputy Attorney-General Clinton L. White. District Attorney H. L. Buckley, C. T. Jones, Ed. M. Martin, Clarence Nelson, R. J. Merkley, J. C. Rodgers, James Corbin, A. S. Green law, J. A. Grant, J. H. Holland, L. C. Chandler, Belaud Howe, A. S. Woods, Geo. W. Gone, Matt Karcher, H. S. Beats, L. Elkus, fudge W. A. Henry, C. H. Stevens, G. E. Erhart, Peter Nelson, L. C. Stone, Joseph Basthem, O. C. Jackson, H. C. John son, W. F. Jackson. The Central Pacific Bailroad Company's bridge was reached in fifteen minutes from the time -of starting. The smoke-stack was lowered and the boat passed under the same without difficulty. Persons standing on the upper deck of the steamer could not touch the bridge with their hands. The run to i Brighton was made in an hour and fifteen j minutes. At the ranches of Dr. Manlove, John Shields and many ethers along the bank j of tha river the people assembled on the I rivet 'B bank and cheered. No difficulty was found in navigating the river as far as depth of water was concerned.' Thero in a good channel and plenty of water at all points. In the upper portion of the river, say six miles from Folsom, the current in the river is very strong. A steamer, in order to combat and oveicome this current, wilt have to be built specially for that purpose. At this time there is high water in the American, and it is the most seasonable i season of the year for acy vessel which wishes to reach Folsom by water. As was stated in this paper yesterday morn ing, Henry Johnson fell overboard and was drowned. It was rumored last evening that his body had been unci. The steamer left Folsom yesterday morn ing, and made the run — thirty-six miles — in : two hours and a quarter. About ten miles this side of Folsom the north bank of the river is changed into steep bluffs. These bluffs vary in hight from 100 to 300 feet. Perhaps there is cot another river in America, except the Hudson, for the same distance, which presents such ; pictur esque scenery. The following resolutions were unani mously adopted by the people on the steamer : tv .ureas. By the kindness of .1. T. Caidwetl we have been his guest* on the steamer Daisy on the first trip made by any vessel from Sacramento to Folsom ; and whereas, we are under many obliga tions to him for the hospitable manner in which we have been entertained on said trip, we therefore take tbia method of expressing to Mr. Cardwell our hearty thanks for the pleasurable day he ha* af forded us, and we sincerely wish and confidently predict that the enterprise ln which he ha* em barked will meet with that success the encrgv with which it has been forwarded merits. We tender thanks to Captain Rogers, in whose superior ability we have unbounded confidence, thus relieving us from any fear of serious danger, and for the admira ble manner in which ha successfully demonstrated | the practicability of the navigation of the American river ; to J. H. Corbin and assistants for the polite manner in which they dispensed the hospitality of our host ; to officers and crew for gentlemanly de portment and the interest taken to make this an ex cursion of unalloveu enjoyment. That we deeply deplore the sudden death of our respected fellow citizen, Henry Johnson, but exonerate all concerned from any blame in this most unfortunate accident. HOW HE'D GET EVEN. He was an unusually good-looking, and well- dressed tramp." After pacing the walk for half an hour in front of one of our popular restaurants, he pushed aside the screen door and entered in. He asked the lady at the counter what was generally the custom as to people who wanted to eat. " That they pay," was the reply. " But if they have not the chink ?" " Sometimes we give them a meaL" " I'm one of that kind." "What kind?" " I have no money, but a good appetite." " Sit down ; in your case, I think a meal will not be 111 disposed." He sat down, and presently the waiter came to tbe counter. , "He wants a dcz;n Eastern oysters on the half-shell, and a glass of claret as a starter." "He does? Well, you just take him a good plateful of mutton stew, bread, butter and potatoes, and coffee or tea, as be may de sire but neither oysters nor claret." Presently, when the ample meal had been disposed of, the chap came to the counter. "Madam!" ; -2; "Well, sir?'' " I wish to give you notice that I think this a swindling and low-lived establishment I shall advise aU my friends to avoid it, and will do my best to divert custom from your restaurant now ;" and before the lady could catch - her breath the tramp had slammed the door after him. i It will be useless for well-dressed tramps to apply for free meals at that restaurant hereafter, the cleeky chap having ruined the business. BREVITIES. W. R. Strong & Co. yesterday placed on exhibition samples of the Sharpies i straw berry, -as grown on their fruit farm near Penryn. Tbe berry is very large, broadens often as a fan and in nearly all cases are pear-shaped. They are an excellent berry, and pack well, being hard and firm. W. G.

Ban Francisco, May 18tb. — The difficult ies of the quarantined steamer Altooower appear as tar as ever from be-in? settled. This evening the Health Officer, after making an inspection cf the vessel, reported seven more Chinese par.__engei down with small pox. The cases, however, are reported to be light. The engineer cf the steamer and two seamen are also down with the disease. The engineer has a very bad case of confluent small-pox. These three persons have been removed to th* Twenty-sixth-street Hospital. The Chinese passengers affected remain on board the steamer, in obedience to a resolu tion adopted by the Board of Health at the last meeting, forbidding small-pox patients being taken to the hospital. Macondray & Co. have telegraphed to Russell & Co. at Hongkong, who are agents for the Ng Chow Fung Co. — the charterers of the steamer— to ascertain if they Would be willing to defray the expenses of quarantining the Chinese passengers, as was required by the Board of Health. No answer has been received yet, so Macondray i Co. are undecided what to do. They have telegraphed to the owners of the steamer — Adams & Bros., of London — asking if they would approve of hiring some vessel to which all tha passengers could be trans ferred. An answer has been received for Macondray & Co. to use their own discretion. It has been decided to charter for a time the ship Columbia for the purpose mentioned. This vessel will be fitted up with bunk', and by Monday next is expected to bo in readi ness. It is proposed to transfer all the Chi nese passengers to the Columbia, and take her to Mission bay, where she will be placed in quarantine. All will depend, however, upon whether the agents or charterers are willing to defray the expenses, which will be very heavy. Woman..

The pledge each member of the Society takes is as follows : We, members of the Women's Protective League of California, do promise and declare that we will not employ in our households, or employ in house bold labor, any Chinese, nor purchase household supplies from the Chinese. A committee, consisting ot Mrs. Blade*, Mrs. Cashman and Mrs. Stephens, was ap pointed to frame an address to the ladies of the city, setting forth the object of the soci ety, and asking them to participate in the meeting.

Tucson, May 18tb.— The following has been received from Separ, N. M.: About half-past 1 o'clock yesterday two men with four mules arrived at this place, watering their animals at the tank, when two other men arrived and tied their horses at the tele graph office fence. They reported that the men who had the mules were deserters from Camp Thomas, and hail stolen seven or eight head of stock, among them a horse belonging to Joe Hill, of Safford, A. T. Hill's brother and W. H. Miller were the men who were following them. They made a request tbat Borne one go and speak to the two deserters, and ask them what they had done with the balance of the stock, but no one cared to do so. Hill stated that be did not wish any trouble, only to find his stock. Not being able to prevail on any one <to go, A. G. Hill and his companion, W. H. Miller, started themselves to interview them. By this time the others had their mules saddled and their guns ready. Hill and Miller kept on approaching until within about seventy five or eighty yard", when one of the men stepped out from behind a mule and made motions for them to stop, and stepped back behind the mules and fired. At the first fire Miller fell dead, shot through 4 the neck, breaking the spinal column, the ball coming out between the shoulders. Hill then fired, wounding one of the men. The two deserters then fired at Hill, but did not hit him. The mules scattered, but one of the men managed to mount one of them and caught another for his companion. Both then rode off hurriedly in the direction of Cow Springs, leaving two mules behind. j The telegraph operator imme diately telegraphed to Captain Goodale, at Fort Bayard, and also to Fort Cummings to General Forsythe._ The Mexican Victory Over tbe Apaches— Official Report.

Seventy-five . of the Indiana were killed and twenty-eight women made prisoners, those only escaping who hail good horses. We lost the First Captain of the Sixth Battalion, named Antonio Roda, and two of his soldiers ; the Lieutenant of the National Guard of Bavispe, Serttpio Lugo, with four of his soldiers; the Second Lieutenant of the ex ploring vanguard, with four soldiers belonging to the Fourth Squadron of Sonora.

Disastrous fire at Olyuipla-Loss Over Insurance, *">,t>oo. Oltmpia, May 18th.— At 2 o'clock this morning a fire started in the Vienna Restau rant, on Main street, in this city, and before long the buildings on each side were wrapped in flames. Before 6 o'clock four-fifths of the principal business blocks in the city were a mass of smoking ruins. Had it not been fur the almost superhuman efforts put forth by the citizens, as well as by tbe firemen, coupled with the \a__t amount of foliage along the street, the entire business portion of the towu would have been totally destroyed. The following list of losses has been hast ily gathered, and will give some idea of the extent of the calamity : Tuite & Holmes, tinners; less, $8,000; insurance, 85,000. Joseph Chieberg, merchant; total loss, §4,000 C. K. Talcott, jeweler ; loss, $5,000 ; insur ance, $1,400. Tnklas A Co.; loss, $10,000 ; insurance, $0,000. W. H.

Doane, oyster man ; loss, $200. P. Hilts., beer saloon ; loss, $250. J. N. Gale, Poetoffice ; loss, $400. The mail was saved. J. McCarragher ; loss, $200. Jacob Ott ; loss $1,500. Too much praise cannot be given to the ladies for the assistance rendered, - more especially Miss Mary O'Neill and Miss Addie Wood, both of whom worked like brave heroines. There was quite a number of minor losses, which will probably make the total loss,' ex clusive of insurance, in the neighborhood of $75,000. ,-■'_... Fortunately no lives were lost and no acci dents occurred, although hundreds of cart ridges exploded during the fire. There is a great scarcity of ' me chanics here, ' and good workmen can find plenty of employment if they come here. A large body of immigrants arrived from j San Francisco last night, who intend taking | up land in Chehalis valley. The rain which fell this morning helped to j extinguish the fire and kept the wind down, thus saving the rest of the town from des truction. .:,..•■:.•■•,■ The Trouble In Alaska-Sale of a Wharf.

Cream ol Tartar and Bi- carbonate Soda. -BTOTHZirG' __EJX__._B.Er. '.-■'■■_. I. ' I Before BAKING POWDERS were made or thought of, Cream of Tartar and Soda were used in every household for bread raiaing. Their use would have continued to this day, were it not for the difficulty of obtaining these ingredients pure. Cream of Tartar is often adulterated with CHALK, ALUM, CLAY, PLASTER OF PARIS md other INJURIOUS MIXT- URES, and SODA with COMMON SALT. Owing to this the housekeeper found it im- ' possible to depend upou what was procurable. I The Bread was constantly varying in taste and was geneially unsatisfactory. Then Baking or Yeast Powders began to jbe compounded, and fcund ready s trie. Manu- facturers pushed the resources of the Chem-. i Ist to the utmost to find out CHEAP SUB- j STITUTES FOR CREAM OF TARTAR. I Some manufacturer put outßukicg Powders composed of some of the following ir -re- i clients: ALUM, PHOSPHATES, LIME, : TARTARIC ACID, MURIATE OF AM- ' MONIA ; and add STARCH. FLOUR »nd j TERRA ALBA to give the mixture bulk and weight, and at the same time preserve 1 the appearance if an honest powder. The only merit of these powdera is their raising properties, and on these the manu- facturers lay great stress. They do not make good bread, and the ingredients have been proved to be positively injurious. WHO WILL KNOWINGLY USE SUCH AT THE EXPENSE OF HEALTH? Other manufacturers, more careful of their reputation, make Baking Powders of Cream of Tartar and Soda, and add Flour and Starch for the purpose of CHEAPENING, which of course impairs the strength. These they call "necessary preserves," and they loudly claim that their powders possess NO INJURIOUS QUALITIES. On one point all the manu- facturers agree. They claim that their powder is PURE, STRICTLY PURE, ABSO- LUTELY PURE, UNIVER- SALLY PURE but Vil PURE WHAT? ■ ■ • v- '■' ■ " : .' -7-.;-.-- " To prove their assertions many publish testimonials— from paid advertise- ments. They advertise chemical analyses, showing amount of gas evolved in passing a given point, and a vast amount of pleasant and very readable matter which has nothing whatever to do with the subject. Which one of these by any accident tells of what their Baking Powder is composed ? Perhaps if they did the cheapness of the ma- terials used would be quite as much of a revelation to consumers as the materials themselves. WHY DO THEY NOT PUB- LISH THEM? '-'.. From the beginning up to the present time the Baking Powder business has been largely a REPETITION OF MISREPRESENTA- TION and FRAUD, and we look for any amount of virtuous indignation at our giv- ing it away to the public. But if it stop, in part only, the use of some of the VILE MIXTURES for food purposes, we will con- sider ourselves well paid. . The ease and cheapness with which' adulterated" powders can be made, and the conse- quent large profits, will justify any amount. of advertising if the people - can only be in- duced to buy them. Nothing has yet been found to take the place of Cream of Tattar and Soda in a pure Baking Powder, in wholesomeness, strength and efficiency. . ' THE NEW ENGLAND BAKING POW- DER is made on this principle. It is com- posed of Cream of Tartar and Soda of tbe highest grade and nothing else. WE CLAIM NO SECRET PROCESS. Our pow- der is combined in proper proportions, thor- oughly mixed by Steam Power, so that in using the smallest quantities the proportions are ALWAYS THE SAME. It is kiln-dried at a given temperature, so that all moisture is expelled. (Soda a; 1 Cream of Tartar combined without careful drying before packing will effervesce and de- teriorate in strength.) Then the powder is put at once in tins air tight, and will keep j for years in any climate without deteriorat- j ing or hardening, .. It is packed in tins ot 4 oz., 8 oz., 12 and ! 16 oz., FULL NET WEIGHT. With these ingredients, pure, anybody can make just as good a Baking Powder as the NEW ENGLAND, PROVIDED always they use the same proportions and quality of I material, and take the same care that we do. We warrant our powder to be exactly as we represent it. WE INVITE CHEMICAL ANLYSIS and the most rigid examination. IT WILL STAND THE lODINE TEST, which some manufactures so decry and ridicule, but which, nevertheless, will expose Starch and Flour when used. • WE ASK FOR PRACTICAL TRIALS . by housekeepers in comparison with any j other powder, and we know the result will be ] a verdict in favor of the NEW ENGLAND ; POWDER. . i/ii I *1F HOUSEKEEPERS AT A DISTANCE ARE UNABLE TO PROCURE THE NEW ENGLAND BAKING POWDER, WE WILL l GLADLY FORWARD SAMPLES | FREE ON RECEIPT OF ADDRESB, AND MENTIONING THIS PAPER. , To those who (refer to nse Cream of Tar- ; tar and Soda in the old-fashioned way we i offer our brands of each, which we warrant ;to be pure. They are packed in Mb pack- ages, net weight. j It has been said to ru that we could cot succeed in selling Pure Baking Powder, Pure ; Soda, Pure Cream of Tartar ; that Califor- i nians would not pay for them. Our experience has been different. We ; have now been packing these goods for some ; time, and IT IS NO EXPERIMENT. By the alow process of one telling another, our sales have been constantly increasing, and we ; now propose to see what AN OPEN STATE- MEN TOF FACTS will do. It will at any rate let the public know that PURE GOODS r CAN BE OBTAINED AND WHERE TO GET THEM. ;■ ' — ;■ NEWTON BROS. & CO , 204 AND 208 CALIFORNIA STREET, SAN FRANCISCO .........
