in reply TO the reporters intimation to that
effect "Well, as there is no likelihood OF
my changing professions in the near future
l will give YOU one of the stories l had
thought of writing. 1t is about the dlsap-
pearance of Young girl 1t is the most in
teresting of all the topics l have got, and.
as a matter of fact, it is is in that line that
private detectives in New York find the
most and more profitable of their work. In
my own experience which extends over
period of about twenty years, have been
called upon tOinvestigate the disappearance,
either voluntary or otherwise, of at least 100
girls of all ages from all parts OF the
country. | only do a small share oil the
work that is done in that line, however.
Taking into consideration the number of de-
teetiveS wh0 do as much in that line as N.Y.
self, it is fair to assume that at least 5000
girls disappear from their homes every year.
Some OF them are recovered and some are
not.
"Some of my cases have been very 70
manti., and others just the reverse. Mostly
the reverse. The causes leading M TO the
dISappraranceS are as numerous as the cases
them selves. Disappointment in love-,
fancied wrong, severity OF treatment by
parents. a desire TO see the world, the evil
influences Of improper association. the oily
tongued roue and temporary insanity are
some of the excuses made. Then there IL
another class of disappearance which
properly come under the head of kidnapping,
and still another where the parents are at
loggerheads or have separated, and one side
or the other steals the child, and in nearly
every case, as strange as it may seem, tue
child is IA girl

Arranging to Have Street-Car Service
During the Winter.
The declaration made some time ago by
the Omnibus Railroad Company of their in
tention Of Withdrawing the horse-carS from
the San Bruno road before winter unless
the roadway was filed in TO the car track
has created no little excitement among the
pror erty-nwners and residents living on and
adjacent to that road. When the track was
laid, several months ago, the railroad COM
pany raised that portion of the road IN many
places several feet, and which at present all
the teams and other vehicles drive over.
Hence, unless the roadway is filled i'll, alter
the ram commences the roadway VIII be-
come absolutely impossible for the cars or
teams.
This is known to the prOperty-owners,
held ard a subscription started to at once
prepare to I'll in the road to the track and
macadamiZe to Fifteenth avenue.
Thus far nearly all have signed, and the
work is to be let by contract. II is eSti-
mated 1t will cost between $500 and 5000
All the taauerieS, milkmen and ranches are
deeply interested, as they have teams con-
stantly going to and from the city. they
comprehend that now is the time 10 place
the road in good order
The section alluded to Is now an open
street. That portion OF the road beyond
Fifteenth avenue is q county road. The
Supervisors appropriated $4,000 this year
to place it in good order, and the work i,
now being done by the Street Department
under the supervision Of Deputy Thomas
L ancbtieid. Several teams and men are
employed constantly, and il is expected the
work will be completed by the first rain.

WATCHING THE PAPERS.


Bow Shrewd and Energetic Tradesmen

1t is curious to note at the present day
what means merchants take to extend their
business and how closely the columns of
the daily papers are scanned.
a little while ago small item was in
serted in the Sea and Shore" column of
THE CALL stating that Captain Dunlevy of
the Harbor Police had collected lot of
junk which he wished to dispose of for
mat for use at his station. Before o'clock
the morning the item appeared six junkmen
who had seen it went 10 the station anxious
to make a trade.
The wife of gentleman in this city had
child born few days ago and the birth
notice was published in The CALL. Next
day, before noon, the representatives OF
three diaries had called, each asking for the
proud distinction of providing milk for the
little stranger. During the afternoon circu-
lars were received from two wholesale
grucers extollng the virtues of the brands
of condensed milk they are agents for.
The daily papers published here are taken
by business men in the East, and when
person dies in san Francisco and the death
notice is published the relatives may be sure
of receiving from firms there offers TO supply
souvenir funeral-cards, poetry and copies OF
photographs at cheap Rates.

CAMPAIGN ECHOES.
A Very Dull Sunday Among the
Local Politicians.
Republican Managers Pleased With the Out
look for the State Ticket-Work Mapped
Gu. for the Future.

The Republican managers are elated over
the success which attended the opening OF
the campaign on Saturday night at Odd Eel
lows Hall, and insist that it far exceeded
their most sangnine expectations. They
point to the fact that no extraordinary efforts
were made to draw a crowd, and yet hun
dreds of people were turned away.
Mr.. Bassett, Secretary of the State Central
Committee, says that in his entire political ex-
perience he has never known the Republicans
of San Francisco TO be more harmonious, or 10
evince greater enthusiasm at the outset than
was shown at the NEE ting. He says also that
Colonel Markham is constantly in receipt of
letters and kilograms from Democrats through

Beautiful Cburcb music.

The organist of the French Church has to
be congratulated upon the music yesterday
at the morning services, and the Santa
Maria," which was sung by Mrs. Thorn
burg Chopper, was very much admired.
Mrs. Choppers voice is peculiarly adapted
for church music. She has that prayerful
information which brings to her singing that
devotional character so much in demand in
the large cathedrals in Europe. 1t is hoped
by her many friends that Mrs. Chopper will
soon be heard in Cherubinis music at st.
Mary's Cathedral to the brilliant accompa-
niment of Professor Elmer.

the impression that Colonel Markham on his
return to this city on October 14th will be
able to speak here on the following day.
This is mistake. Colonel Markham will
speak at the New Wigwam on the evening
of his arrival, and will leave the following
morning for Eureka.

His Name Discussed for the nay CRAFTY
Nomination..
An active canvass is being made by the Re-
publicans to ascertainif possible the strength
of the various candidates for the Mayoralty
nomination with view to placing the best
man in the field. The result has been that
the name of George II. Sanderson, Presi-
dent of the Board of Trade has been widely
discussed, and has been received with favor
by ali factions. Mr. Sanderson is one of
the best known business men OF the city, and
would have a strong following among the
leading citizens. If he should be chosen, it
is probable that l.. Il. Ebert, WHO is now
named in connection with the offire, would
receive the nomination for Sheriff. and his
popularity, it is believed, wonld elect him
over almost any opponent that could be
named.

House Keepers.

ago, when Sergeant Spiilane and his squad
were given charge of the Chinese quarter,
they raided tan game on the corner of Du-
pont and Clay streets, conducted on the top
floor by wealthy Mongols and wealthy pat
rons. 1t was known that six or seven games
were running in the building but the watch
fitness of the officers completely broke them
up, and now the place is deserted.
In consequence of this police interference
two gamekeepers were ejectei Saturday
afternoon by the Sheriff and four more will
follow to-day. They could not pay their
