Drying Cod by Machinery.

Instead of the old fashioned way of
drying Goldfish by spreading them on
sllids or fakes machinery is now en-
ployed. Through the center of fixed
iron cylinder runs large iron pipe, and
from the center to the circumference
shell are galvanized iron fakes, some
thing like gridiron. These are nova
BILE and are fixed, each forming a radius
in the cylinder. The machine is then
started and flies around at 100 revolu-
tions a minute. The door of the cylin-
der is then opened, and as each fake is
taken out another is ready, and raw fish
are put in its place.
When the last fake had been removed
and the last green one put in its place,
the machine starts again at 100 revolu-
tions a minute. The fish just taken out
are piled for two or three days to let the
pickle work out. These receive two
hours more of centrifugal force, and the
work is done. Like many of the ra0id
modern processes this new method of
drying Goldfish impairs the favor of the
product as compared to the original and
more tardy way of curing in the sum-
New York Sun.

Have Your Photograph Ready.

No one should fail to keep his photo
graph on hand all ready for the newspa-
pers. No matter how complete your
past life has reflected your opinion that
the post of honor is the private station,
there is no telling how soon you may be
called upon to take cabinet position or
be elected president of suburban bowl
ing society. And then, if the photograph
is not at hand, reporters will lie in wait
for you with kodaks, or the recently used
woodcut of some escaped convict will he
trotted out to do duty for you. Bette
yield to the inevitable and keep on hard
in your desk the photograph of yo1
which looks most dignified and distin-
guished. One farseeing and modest m?n
of The Listeners acquaintance went
further than this. He had his portrait
''processed" and blocked and carried the
cut about ith him all the time ready to
deliver it to the first reporter who should
call upon him at the moment when he
should become famous.-Boston Tran

THE INAUGURAL PROCESSION.
A SenseIess Custom That Must Soon Be
ReVOlutionized.

A SenseIess Custom That Must Soon Be
ReyOlutionized.
Readers, you lost nothing by not wit
Messing what the press calls ''the pageant
of inauguration day." The time is not
far distant when there will be revolu-
ton in this procession of the presidents
to and from the capitol. To expect one
man to drive mile in an open carriage
regardless Of weather, TO deliver an ad-
dress bareheaded in the open air, to
drive back another mile and then to
stand up for hours, again in the open
air, reviewing troops and societies as
sembled promiscuously, is SO barbarous
as not much longer to be endured.
AS the country grows and distances
are lessened by invention everybody will
want to come to Washington to help in,
augurate the president. Tammany, 5000
strong, will be only one of many organ
izations to be reviewed by a chief mag,
istrate who will need to be made of cast
iron to live through the fatigue and bore,
dom of an insensate performance. The
procession of last week pursued its long
and winding way until 7:3O o'clock
Long before this hour spectators were
worn out and went home with colds,
sore throats, pleurisies and pneumonias
contracted by sitting on damp seats in
biting wind that blew hats off regard
less of cost and multiplied cold feet by
hundreds of thousands.
Apart from the two presidents and
vice presidents, the regular troops, dis
tinguished visitors and militia, like the
Seventh regiment of New York, nobody
cares for the inaugural procession. To
see a lot of men in stovepipes and over
coats with big badges on their heaving
breasts is not in the least impressive. If
these gentlemen want to visit Washing
ton, let them come, but don't infiict them
on populace and president.
No procession should be more than
two hours long and should not be over
weighted with too much of one kind.
Judging by last Saturday, this country
consists almost entirely of Pennsylvania
militia and Tammany Hall. Apart from
an expense which is borne by the state
in the first case and ultimately by a
city in the second, there is an unfairneSs
in this exhibit which will sooner or later
bring about a change.-Kate Fields

WHO Is RIGHT?

The principal of the Denman School
sends THE CALL the following:
An article in your Sunday paper does an injus-
tice 10 The president Of the Board Of Education,
aud 10 me as principal OF The Denman Grammar
School. IN stating that The children were COM
PEELED 10 remain III the open air for fifteen or
twenty minutes on the occasion Of the recent
exercise ia The fire drill. AS a matter Of fact the
school remained standing not 10 exceed one
minute, aud no scholar was outside OF the build
lug, moving or stationary, for over two minutes.
We are required by the rules of the board to
hold fire drills once a month, aud IS soon as the
scholars have formed outside of the building the
bell sounds for them to return. On this partlcu-
lar occasion il may be that the children were
standing thirty seconds longer than usual, but
not 10 exceed that
The communication to which the principal
of the Denmsn School replies was written
by the father of one Of the girls who were
exposed. The writer assured The CALL
that he could not be mistaken. We adhere,
therefore, to the opinion we entertained
when the communication was published,
that the statement was substantially cor
rect. There is much complaint of DISPOSE
tiou on the part of the school authorities to
subordinate the comfort and convenience Of
school children to tendency to display.
There was probably no desire on the part
Of the managers of the fire drill to need
lessly expose children in inclement weather,
but possibly too little care lest such ex-
posure should be inflicted. IL seems neces-
sary to remind the school authorities that
they are at all times, while performing
public duties, the servants of the public.

REBELLIOUS CHINESE.

American citizens recognize what they
consider unjust and impoltic laws while
such laws remain on the statute-books. The
Chinese, however, who are only in this
country on sufferance, refuse to make such
recognition Of a law which they consider a
hardship. A national registration act re-
quires them to register as means Of identi-
fication, and this the Chinese stubbornIy
refuse TO do. Under these conditions the
Federal Government can neither repeal the
law nor fail to enforce it. To do either
would be an adm ission either that an at
tempt had been made to inflict wrong
upon the Chinese or that the Government
lacked the power to enforce a just law.
The Chinese have based their refusal to
register on the assumption that being in
the country was not a crime and conse-
Quently could Dot be punished as crimes are
punished. at the most the Federal Govern
ment could only deport them, exercising
until deportation such restraint only as
would insure final deportation. They have
put themselves on record against the law
IN the belief that rather than incur the
trouble and expense OF enforcing it the
Federal Government would let the law be-
come dead letter. Collector of Internal
Revenue Quinn now comes out with plan
to hold Chinese in restraint until such times
as vessels may be secured to carry them
back to China. He thinks Goat Island may
be used for this purpose. Whether or not
this plan may be found to be practicable, it
Is certain that some way will be devised to
bring the rebellious Chinese to terms.

CITY REAL ESTATE.

The sale Of The lot on which the Royal
Hotel stood in New York, on the corner of
Fortieth street and Sixth avenue, for $40
square foot shows that well-situaIed prop
erty in that city is higher than similarly Sit
uated property in this city. The New
York custom OF measuring by the square
foot makes it difficult to institute COMPARE
sons with valuations Of property here,
where lots are sold by the front foot; but IL
we assume that lot on good Part of Van
Ness avenue here is as well situated as
LOT on Forteth street and Sixth avenue in
New York the latter is worth 30 per cent
more than the former. At S40a square foot
lot 25x125 feet would be worth S15.600
whereas here. at $500 front foot, the same
lot on Van Ness with depth of 125 feet
would only be worth $4,000. Lots here are
deeper than the New York lots. There 100
feet is the usual depth, while here the depth
generally ranges from 125 to 1877 g feet.
When We compare very choice property,
as, for instance, lots on upper Market street
here with lots ON Broadway. between Four
teenth and Fortieth streets, there, the diff
ference in prices is still more marked. New
York is an older city than San Francisco,
and real estate values are more stable
there and Jess likely to fuctuate with the
whims Of fashion. In many quarters in
this city, as near Rincon Hill, in parts of
the Mission and ON the bluff overlooking
the North Beach. lots are not worth as
