Reasons for a Sign and Reasons for
a Sale.

Reasons for Sign and Reasons for
a Sale.
The corner of Market, Third, Geary and
Kearny streets-truly the heart of the
town, the nucleus of the retail locality, and
well named indeed is the building which
overlooks this sight. For over a score Of
years the chief occupant of this well-named
Nucleus building has been "Beamish, the
Haberdasher." The name is the first that
suggests itself to a san Franciscan when the
question OF furnishing goods arises and is
invariably associated with both the build
ing and the locality. To-day there stretches
across the front of the entire store a fam
ing sign in scarlet. that announces the re-
moval of one more OF our many landmarks.
"Beamsh is going 10 move. what's the rea-
son and where TOP" are questions which
Immediately presented themselves to the
MORNING CALL reporter when he first read
that sign.
Mr.. Beamlsh was found just at the door

the reporter.

And here" said the speaker, turning to
the interior Of the Nucleus store, you can
see for Yourself how much there is to dis

There was, indeed. ample evidence in tie
array OF underwear, linen. hosiery, etc, to
bear out the Speakers assertion.
It's all got 10 90, resumed Mr.. Beamis h,

Pacific Mail people were furious and so was
their ally, the Southern Pacific Company.
To strike the iron while it was red hot
the local merchants formed an organization
and at once opened negotiations with the
Panama Railroad Company.
IL was In this manner the North Amer
lean Navigation Company was founded,
From the very beginning the new company
struck responsive chord when they
approached the Panama Railroad people,
and the closing OF a contract with the was
soon accomplished.
Yesterdays departure of the ST. Paul was
the beginning of the many trips of the same
kind the company's steamers will make in
the future.
There is an overwhelming desire on the
part OF every man who has anything to ship
or to imuort to have his goods carried by
this new line, not only because its rates are
so very much lower than those formerly
charged by the Pacific Mall Company, but
also because the business world is feeling
glad TO have at last that long wanted 0ppor-
tunlty 10 be independent of the Southern
Pacific Company, that old tyrant which has
for so long time sucked the very life
blood out of this community.
The prayer now heard downtown is:
May the North American Navigation
Company live long and prosper. and may it
have a magnificent fleet of steamers nfOat
when the Pacific Mail Company's old hulks
are sold at auction as junk"

appropriations and improvements.
Four meetings have already been held,
in different large Western cities, at none OF
which, however, have California, Oregon or
Washington been represented, and it is the
purpose of Mr.. Harvey's visit to arrange
for an adequate delegation TO represent
these States at the next congress, which
viii be hold in Ogden on April q.
Mr.. Harvey thus defines the particular
functions OF the congress:
TO bring about an utilization of conflict
ing interests in the Western States TO agree
upon the needs of the several States; to
unite in harmony of action and voice by
resolutions that which is agreed upon by
the congress; 20 promote active legislation
In the individual interests of the different
States as well as in the interests of all.

tions as irrigation. arid lands, public lands,
silver. the policy of the Secretary Of the In
terror. Pacific and Gulf coast sharb0rs, and
other important matters touching the prog
ross of the Western States.

men know just what we want, it will be
comparatively easy for them to maintain
their stand against appropriation legislation

NJ. d. Nelson's Search After Fabulous
Wealth of Old Buccaneers in
the Beach Sands.

N. D. Nelson says the sandssif the beach
must give up the gold the bold buccaneers
gave TO its trust many years ago.
lie says he has found at last where it has
lain so long. and to recover it has been his
labor for many days.
When he quit the work of probing for the
long-lost fabulous treasure Of departed buc-
cancers yesterday he had a three-inch pipe
sunk to within five feet of the supposed big
iron box which he believes he has located
and which contains the wealth.
For two days he has worked sinking this
pipe, and by tonight he expects 10 be
pretty close to the treasure.
The spot where Mr.. Nelson says the box
lies under the sands is about half a mile
south OF the park observatory and only
about fifty yards from where the surf
breaks on the beach at high tide.
For long time Nelson has probed about

years in the: Washington State prison.
When last seen in this city he had rot lost
his arm, and the police upon looking up his
description found that the missing member
had been tatt0oed from wrist to elbow.
Their theory is that Garvey had the arm
taken off in order that he might escape de-
lection for some crime that he had COM
mitted, or that he might make his living by
begging
When asked how he lost the arm he
grinned and replied that he had been run
over by steamboat.
Hatchet-face Jack went to Sacramento
ON the day after the arrest of the boys. and
while there went to work with a chicken
thief. His pal was shot and killed last
week while robbng henroost and he was
shot through the shoulder, and subsequently,
sent to jail for six months.
Garvey disposed of most of the plumber to
restaurant-keepers and pawnbrokers. Most
OF il has been recovered.

eide on putting the Pesthouse right in the

morning and enter their protest against any
such action. This committee was TO be

fered ruffle of satin of most delicate pale
blue. The sleeves We're of blue satin. The
wide bertha was of rich dark nasturtium
yellow, or rather orange velvet with black
shading. The front was pale yellow. 1t
sounds like n queer combination, but | as
sure you the whole was an artists ideal.
There was narrow band of green pea
cocks flues around the bertha and neck.
There are several novelties in the way of
bodices to wear with skirts of different or
the same material. One very pretty de-
sign is bodice of blue and gold cha
meleon silk. There are deep frills at the
yoke and sleeves as well as around the
bottom of the waist. These are of the silk,
cut out in scallops after being buttonholed
in pale blue floss silk. Above each scallop
is a medallion of white crocheted lace. This
is very pretty for young lady and quite
novel
After so much superfiuous cloth in the
way of berthas and bretelles it is Il relief
to find that we are to be permitted to have
a comparatively plain waist if we want it.
One gown just imported shows us thickly
ribbed dove colored silk, with corsage
cut to resemble "A plain cutdown front,
fastened across the bust with cords aud
arms are of purple and gold coored bro
cade. The cape to the sleeves is quilted
silk muslin over purple pulled sleeves of
reps. The skirt TO this is cut out in plain
vandykes over an under portion of the
brocade.
An odd co lceit for morning jacket was
shown me in one house 1t was like boys
tunc with Norfolk plaits in front and a
full gathered back held in by belt of gold
cord. The jacket was of blue and white
serge, with a blue velvet sailor collar.
This is to slip on in the morning for break
fast
There are several minor notes of things
that 20 to make up IA complete toilet.
There are boas OF wide and splendid ostrich
feathers in white, pink, green and lilac,
and also mauve to match the new evening
colors which are seen in the light brocaded
silks. A few Of them have mingling of
several tints, and some are black and
white.
There are novelties in underwear, the
oldest of which are black silk undervests
with lace frills and silk crocheted wheels
in different colors sewn together and set in
front V shape. Some are of pink or blue
silk or wooden and trimmed in a similar
manner. The black undervests are per-
fectly shaped to fit the figure, and around
the neck under the lace frills there are rib
bons to draw them snugly around the neck.
There are tufts of ostrich tips in every
evening tint, and in black to fasten with
brilliant rhinestone pins to corsages of even
ing gowns or to fasten on the dainty
little tea caps There are long Perinot
gloves in pale pink, white, cream, lilac and
tan mousquetaire styles, and there are green
gloves, blue ones, red ones and black, and
there are puppies of every shade, from lilac
to prune. MATE LEROY.
