RECKLESS BUILDING.
From the N. Y. World.


The sudden and disastrous fall of a factory
in Thirty y-ffth street suggests reflections.
The wind was blowing at the time, to be sure,
but it did not amount to gale, much less to
such an exceptional convulsion as is required
to acquit the constructors of building of
gross negligence in its destruction by stress
of weather. The point which will be chiefly
relied upon to shield the builders from the
blame of the disaster whereby at least four
persons have lost their lives is probably that
the building was unfinished. A wall with
out the support which roof and joists give it,
is of course in q much more precarious
condition than after those securities have
been added. But that was not the state of
this building. The covering had been finally
effected the day before the fall. SO far as
security goes, the building was in very
nearly if not quite as good condition
as it ever would have been. The
conclusion is inevitable that the construction
of it had been grossly reckless. Nothing is
height in a building demands additional
strength in its walls. Yet nothing is CON-
moner than to see buildings which assume
the proportion almost of obelisks run up to
the height, as in this building, of eight
stories, or even higher, not only without any
precautions in the way of buttresses but
with walls which would be fimsy and made
quate even for an ordinory dwelling. Money
saving is one motive for this reckless sort
of construction. Time-saving is another.
The factory which fell on Thursday, the day
after its completion, was begun upon the
14th of November. 1t is perfectly clear
that building of eight stories cannot be
properly built in such a time. II the
tragical event of Thursday morning does
not admonish architects and capitalists
of the breakneck pace at which they are
going, there are enough sterner admonitions
in store for them. Let us hope that this sin
gle lesson will suffice TO give them pause, and
| that the blood of the four victims of some
mans reckless haste and greed N ~ not have
been shed in vain. This lesson ought at all
events to serve to quicken official vigilance
| While this rickety warehouse was falling to
pieces yesterday morning by the North river,
the Superintendent of Buildings was testify
ing that building npon the East river-by
the fall of which a calamity in some respects
| similar, though not SO widely fatal, had en-
| sued-was properly constructed. 1t behooves
that functionary to see that in future his
sanction is not too lightly given, lest his
commitments should bo impelied by self
| preservation TO usurp his functions. A build
ing blown down by breeze is not a safe
building, whatever official assurances may be
| given to the contrary. And 1t is to be hoped
that the friends of tae victims of the disaster
in Thirty fifth street will take legal measures
10 remind reckless builders that reckless
building is a crime for the consequences OF
which they are answerable.

EARLY HISTORY OF CALIFORNIA.

The starting date in the modern history of
California is the year 1912, when Cabrillo. a
Spanish explorer, first discovered and landed
upon .he the shore of what is now called Cal.
ltornia. He named Cape Mendocino after
Mendoza, then Viceroy of Mexico. THIRTY
seven. years later, in 1919, the English nav.
lgator, Sir Francis Drake, then Captain
Drake, discovered and landed upon the coast
at or near the bay still called by his name.
In 1896, Viscaino, a Spaniard, landed at
La Paz, in Lower California. In 1902. he
made another voyage. in which he g, tsrad
the harbor of San Diego. and afterward land.
ed at Monterey
The first Mission in California was found.
ed by the Spaniards at San Diego, in 1859.
The Bay OF San Francisco was discovered
IN July I7o9, by Father Junipere Sierra. :
The first ship entered the Golden Gate in
June, lH9. The Preside, or garrison, in
What Is now San Francisco, was established
Septem Der nth, l776. The Mission of San
Francisco de Assissez was founded Octohar
9th, llfo, the year of American dependence
During the Mexican War, California was
occupied by United States forces. It's naval
and military Governors were, in order Com.
modore Sloat, Commodore Stockton. John e
Fremont, General Kearney, Colonel Mason
and Bennett Riley.
California came into the Union Sentember
y, 1850. 1t became the thirty-irst State

5, which expressed the number of original
States at the time Of the Declaration of In

The names of Calf rnia places came orin-
clpally from three sources; the Indian. the
Spanish and the English languages. The
Spanish names are of two cla>ses-sacrcd
and prntane. The first Spanish settlers were
Catholic missionaries. la their calender
nearly every day has its patron saint; hence.
when they discovered a new place, or founded
a mission or settlement. they usually pamed
Itafter the saint to whom the day was sacred.
All the " Sans" and Saints" of the Stata
received their names in the same way. In
the Spanish language San" means q male
SAINT, and Santa means a female saint.
or, sometimes, San" or .Santau mean.
hoty Thus, San Juan means St. John:
santa Clara st. Clara or Clare; and Santa
Cruz means the Holy Cruz.
Such names as Colusa, Klamath. Napa
Suscol. Iehama, Tuolumne, and Yolo. came
from the Indian language. Their exact ori.
gin and precise meaning is, in many cases,
extremely difficult to be definitely and salts

DIsEAsEs.-As the weather gets warm
er less food is needed to keep the body
warm; We, in our blindness, endeavor to
keep up the same heat, to burn as much
internal fuel in July as January If we
do eat as much, the system cannot appro.
pirate it; it is rejected, it is cast out; but
in making the effort to cast it out, natural
force is expended which ought to have
been saved, weakening ourselves unneces-
sarlly while We were weak and languid
and these were the very feelings which
prompted us to be doing something to
make us feel better, to improve our general
condition, and to increase our strength
The means we used were to force upon the
stomach much larger amounts than were
craved, thus imposing upon that much
abused organ the additional labor, not only
to expend the strength of the system un
necessarily, but to cause irritation, and
fevers, and inhammations, which bring
wreck and ruin to thousands every spring
and summer-the deaths in the warn
months being nearly double those. in the
cooler ones of October and November
Health increases in the autumn. The
health, and strength, and bodily enjoyment
of all communities begins to, increase
in the first days of October; the
appetite gradually improves, because Ma
ture sees that as the weather is getting
cooler outside, there must be more fue
consumed Within, and she instinctively
calls for more food; and the strength in
creases proportionably.-Dr. Hall.
