Keepers Complaining.

While the new car connection has generally
proved a great benefit to the residents OF South
San Francisco, in some respects 1t has Injured
rather against the interests of the store keepers
and retailers OF that locality. They state that
before the new car line was opened South San
Franciscans were practically kept at home all
the time because there was no other way TO
reach the city than by the bus lines.
The horrors OF this method OF conveyance
were so great that few dared TO take the risk of
ridi ng in them. Being kept at home the resi-
dents bad, so 10 speak, strictly to support home
industry and consequently spent their money at
home. Now they seem to prefer 10 go TO the city
10 ina Ike their purchases and the retailers are
feeling somewhat blue. The remedy OF keeping
a stock on hand OF just what the ,eOple want
will probably remove all future complaints.
The car-line connections are being daily placed
In better condition and new switches are put In
where they are needed.
TWO BUSES STILL RUNNING.
Two busseS are still running from Butchertown
TO the Potrero cars. Travel is very light over
the route and each bus hardly averages 81 Gay
receipts-a great contrast with the heavy daily
income OF the past. The horses are thinner and
more wretched than ever, and the buses more
ramshackly. 1t would be hard TO imagine
greater image OF perfect woe than one OF these
iurnouis

THE REAL ESTATE SITUATION.

tion. No new additions, however, have recently
been made 10 the business or residence sections.

in the sanitary conditions Is expected.
Up TO the present no arrests have been made
OF local residents by the South San Francisco
police a fact that speaks well for their excellent
behavior
ROADSIDE RESORTS SPRINGING UP.
With the opening of the new branch car line OF
the new connection running out 10 the Fiye-mile
House, a large number OF roadside resorts some
OF them quite pfetentious, have sprung up with
others in course of erection. AT these places all
kinds OF refreshments, including clam chowder,
are to be had, aud many moonlight parties WISH
these resorts nightly.
The clamdggers state that owing to the raw
ages OF the large number OF sngarees that now

by the thousands, their occupation has gone for
good. They have retired from business TO en-
gage In other pursuits.
