tempt a bOatman to go after body. He
would simply tow it In il he came across it
by accident But in the other case he
would set about it in this way: He would
get three or four others TO go in with him
on the share and share principle, as then
the thing would be studied up a little. In
most cases bodies come to the surface about
the ninth day, when the abdomen is full OF
gas from decomposition. As soon as this
gas escapes the body sinks and never comes
up again. There is no time to be lost
THE first thing to be considered is the
state of the tide when the drowning took
place, whether it was high water. ebb, flood
or low water, and also whether the man fell
over in an eddy or in the full swing OF the
tide. The eddieS are always good places 10
try any way. There is one of these at
Hunters Point, another off Black Point,
another off Alcatraz Island, another of
Goat Island. another back of Angel Island,
and the biggest of all at the Horseshoe
bend, between Lime Point and SauSalitO.
When the eddes have been well searched.
the next best chance is along the tide rips.
Any one who has watched the surface Of the
bay when the tide is changing must have
seen long narrow line of floating rubbish,
with the water kind of heaped up, muddy
one side and clear blue the other. If the
gulls and sea birds are about, you can see
them dotting this rip for miles. BY
sailing along the line OF the rip you
get the best chance Of finding any bodies
that happened to be floating at the time
that is any bodies that haven't been caught
in the eddes. But it's an uncertain BUSH
ness at best, and the only chance for the
friends of a drowned person to recover the
body at all is to offer reward liberal
enough to tempt lot Of boatmen TO go out
on the ninth day."
"But isn't it a fact that numbers of
drowned persons are yearly taken 10 the
Morgue ?"
Yes; but most Of these bodies are those
unknown persons who have fallen in at
night while drunk, or met with foul play or
jumped in Of their own accord. Even then
they are only a small part If those actually
drowned. just think how many people
have been known 20 be drowned within the
last year aud say how many bodies have
been recovered Not one in a dozen, I'm
nnite sure: and I've told Won the reason."

MIR. Hotaling was consistent Riehelieu
OF remarkable power, portraying the grasp
OF mind and littleness of vanity which have
come to be considered the essential elements
of that singular but fascinating character.
In his scenes with the youth Francois De
Mauprat, Julie, the De L0rme and others
he maintained simply by profound knOwl-.
edge of varied human nature his control
over all and the audience at the same time.
Mr.. Matthew made a brave, reckless De
Mauprat-a fitting foil to the scheming Car
dinal, who had baser counterpart in De
Baradas-the Iago of the piece-excellentiy
played by Mr. Frank j. MuTasky.
OF the ladies hardly too much could be
said in praise of both Mrs. AliSta Shed
Langstroth as Julie de Mortimar and Miss
Marie Wandka as Marion de Lorme Their
pretty costumes and graceful work fairly
captiyated the audience. Messrs. HOusman,
Blinn, Cook. Sullivan, Nickels and Dana,
with the minor characters, afforded ade-
quate support.

labor, or engagement upon a tennis
court, or spin upon the steed that de-
pends for its motive power upon it's
rider. That this business man is sus-
tanned, strengthened and auickened by
his ayocations there can be no manner of
doubt.
The wise worker leaves his desk in its
place and the shop upon its site. Away
from their demands and the hours due to
them he puts them out of mind and en-
cages in dissimilar activities. These
may be physical or mental; may be mere
sport, play, even frivolity, or engagement
III affairs demanding intellectual vigor
and exercise of the best powers of the
mind-no matter, so long as the man is
out of the groove and has the resolution
to prevent the avocation from robbing
the groove of the due need of service to
1T. We need to mingle work and play
work that demands of us, with that
which we command and may call or put
aside. We need more rest after meals,
less rush to and from them; longer hours
at home and less inshop and office; more
engagement in purely recreative and
social exercises, and less confinement to
the moneys getting labors we have chosen.
Because it is certain, beyond contradic-
tlon, that we do more. after all, accom-
pilsh more. win more, if we do not be-
come slaves to duty. The putting aside
OF regular labor and its thought strength
ems us for duty, precisely as night re-
freshes us and prepares US for the de-
mands of the new day. We will, in
other words, wear longer, work better,
achieve more in whatever may be our
calling, if we do not make vocation the
sole object of all our exertions.

REPUBLICAN FEALTY.

One of the disadvantages under which
| the Republican party labors, considered
from partisan point of view, is the in
dependent spirit that permeates its mem
bership. 1t is at all times liable to defec-
tons that are induced by personal ap-
peals, and the disposition to go after per-
sonal preferences. But party member
ship owes it to party organization not to
weaken it by such departures except the
necessity arises to rebuke party bad
management, for party good. This some
times happens; it does occur at times that
revolt is the best of discipline. But there
is in this Presidential campaign no ex-
cuse whatever to trade for sentimental,
or any other reasons any Republican
strength. {,
The party is unit; its standard bearer
is of unblemished character; its organiza-
ton is intact and the management in dis
Greet hands. There is no detection be-
cause OF party errors, no revolt or cause
for it. Whatever party strength is lost
this year, therefore, will be due to The in
dividual yielding to Establishments of the
opposition; to trading of party strength
for personal favorites, and to local drift
ing off to satisfy personal whims and the
appeal of side showmen Republicans
should this year of all others recall that
the power of the party is dependent upon
the loyalty of the membership, and that
the contest is squarely between the Re-
publican and the Democratic parties.
Any side shows that draw away voters
play into the hands of the Democracy.
There is not one Of them that even enter
tains the hope of success; they are coquet-
ting for Republican votes in the North
ern States, and demanding Democratic
votes in the South, where the Republican
party does not expect to gain ascendancy
this year. The thing for Republicans to
do IN this year 1892 is to stand together
for the party. and its nominations
throughout, and to refuse to be influenced
by the appeals and platitudes of the side
showmen.

THE levee improvement election draws
near. OF course it will go affirmatively.
1t is unthinkable that any other result
should be recorded. The city that will
not protect itself cannot hope for prosper
ity. A community that refuses to take
ordinary and wise precaution against
threatened Ill must not complain of dis
aster. As against $3O,OO0,0O0 of value the
sum of 100000 for another generation to
pay is trifie. Even if we had to pay it
in one round lump sum, instead of in
twenty years. time, it would be the
soundest. safest, largest interest-bearing
investment we could make. Here is AS
house threatened with landslide; cer-
tainly his neighbors so believe and hasten
to avoid the locality. But B says to him,
Here, your property is depreciating un-
der this menace; if not prevented ruin
will overtake your house; take now a
Si00 of my money and by substantial
work stop the fall of the land upon your
$1,000 house; pay me in twenty years, or
sooner if you wish, but take it and thus
restore confidence in the stability OF
things in your neighborhood, and re-
establish the value Of your property: in
deed advance it three times the cost of
the investment" If such an offer were
refused, would not all the world pro-
nounce the householder idiotic?

The San Francisco Cali INDUCES in an
every-morning snarl at the RECORD
UNIoN-which gratifies the latter The
CdlpS growing is preferable to its wan
smile of commentator. If it should
happen that we had the approval of this
dyspeptic dame, we should really begin
to think that we had fallen into the ways
deserving of reproach. The CnIps entire
plan of campaign in these diurnal peck
ings at the RECORD UNION is that of i'm
pugning motive. That kind of assault it
is always foolish to resist. If the Call
has not risen to comprehension of the
old truth, that its method is the weakest
and most contemptible known to think
ing men, it is past all hope of reclama-
ton from error. So long as it puts aside
argument and fact and reason with one
hand to assail motive with the other, it is
absolutely harmless and can make no
impression upon the minds of men.
Really, however, for the credit of the
newspaper business the Gail ought to re-
form its method, and this we say, even
though such reformation might demand
from the RECoRD-UNIoN some attention.

THERE are people possessed of the
idea that police force is to act only
when complaint is filed, unless offenses
are committed in official presence. This
is true as to misdemeanors and some other
classes of law-breaking. But it is not at
all true as to abuses of local regulations,
and open, fagrant defiance of laws and
ordinances. 1t is the duty of the police
to hunt out and bring to light the Offend
ers who menace public safety and imperil
peace, good order and security in life and
limb. When it is known that grevious
wrong has been done, that affects the
whole community, the duty of the police
is to ferret out the wrong-doers and or
dinance violators, and when the offender
is found there is time enough for the is
suance of a warrant in nine cases out of
ton
