THE NATIONALS.
Companies c and g VIII Remain in
the First

There has been considerable speculation
among members CT the State militia in this
city whether companies c and G of the
First Regiment, National Guard of CaIifor-
MIA. would be mustered out, either at their
own request or by arrangement, and
whether these companies would form the
nucleus of new regiment
The inside facts, so far as they could be
gathered from reliable sources, are briefly
these:
The co mpanies named are the strongest
in the entire organization Of the National
Guard, and mum Der nearly 100 men each,
while the average company strength in the
State is only 90 men, Out of the total
strength of the First Regiment 900 mem
the Nationals are thus seen to form nearly
one-half.
The regiment is row paying about $3.50 Il
year tor its armory ana has about five years
OF ten years lease TO run. The Ma
ti0nals have concluded to use the $40, 600
which they have in hand for. the erection of
an armory of their own at Van Ness ave-
nue. and Ellis street. yacating the present
quarters adjoining Trinity Church. The
other companies of the First Regiment want
the Nationals to come into the regimental
armory and pay quota of the rent, which.
1t IS thus hoped, would be reduced 1t ap-
pears, However, that the actual reduction
would only amount to 81 0S per month, or
Insist on an independent armOry, claiming
that there is not room for them In the reg-
mental arm0Ty anyhow
There is no actual ill-feeling between the
Nationals and the other companies of the
regiment, but the former claim that they
have made great sacrifices and worked hard
TO gain the peculiar distinction attached TO
them, ard that there is no sacrifice Of esprit
de corps in their struggle to obtain honor
able and special recognition as the crack
companies of the Guard.
In any case, il is said, there is not the
least likelihood that they will split with the
ola First OF form part OF new regmental
organization.

SICK AND POOR CARED FOR.
Good Work Done by the Fruit and
Flower Mission.

The Fruit and Flower Mission held It's an
nual meeting and election Of officers yester-
day at 400 Post street.
The afternoon was taken up with the re-
ports of the various committees and dis
cussions on worthy cases OF the poor and
sick.
The report Of the financial secretary was
read. showing the society IN good financial
condition. Tie private visiting committee
reported that owing to the generous coutri-
buttons to the mission from its kiGd friends
ii has been able to assist anddistribute gro
ceries, eggs. fruits, ETC.. 10 eghty-nine needy
families during the year. 1t also procured
Thanksgiving dinners for $50 families on

The report Of the librarian stated that
they had received during the year 1885
papers, books aud magazines. Besides the
sick in The hospitals the natives of the Gil
bert Islands and at Alaska have been sup
piled with reading-matteT during the year
To all those, the librarian also stated. who
do not wish to send their contributions of
reading-matteT 10 the hall there is box at
the corner of Suffer and Kearny streets
where it can be dropped in.
BY the secretarS's report il was shown
that the last year was very prosperous
one for the society. The membership had
increased, and, as a natural consequence,
the number Of actual workers is now greater
than ever. The secretary also said that
the socety was indebted to the Pacific Coast
Blood horse Association for part Of the
gate receipts during one day in the season,
and also to the Pacific Union and Bohemian
baseball mines for their kind remembrance.
The City and County Hospital committee
reported that the charitable work of visiting
the sick a the hospital had been studously
prosecuted every Thursday. distributing
papers, fruits, flowers, etc.
Henry G. Beale, the chairman of the COM
mittee, said that every Thursday afternoon
was a red-leiter day at the hospital; the
patients who looked forward to their CON-
ing knew they did not come empty-handed
but would have something TO cheer their
dropping spirits.
TIE election OF officers for the ensuing
year followed and resulted in the choice of
the following named: President, MISS
Anna Hall; viee-presdent. Mrs. A. X.
Arnold secretary, Miss Martha Shainwald

TO ROOM, BOARD OR RENT i?
A Problem for the Newly Welded.

ent that Is from partakiDg of the meat and
drink offerings at other peoples domestic
shrines.
Not few ambitious young couples in this
city have started out on hundred dollars
month, and in The course of few years
have saved enough TO purchase home of
their own, by the wife's energy ana thrift in
making light housekeeping homelike and
charming, and the husbands amiability IN
putting up with little discomfOrts that his
income did hot make imperative.
OF course, to have only two rooms and
use them as a kitchen and dwelling house
would not be most peoples ideal OF do
meStic comfort. but provided that couple
are in sympathy in The matter, it is easy 10
overcome temporary Inconvenience when
there is definite object to be attained.
Do newly married people generally realize
the fact that the manner in Which they be-
gin life together, in nine cases out of ten,
strikes the keynote Of their future hapDi-
ness or misery?
Whether the wife is going to become the
tender sympathetic friend. or whether the
| romantic affection that led the couple TO the
altar Is TO develop into nothing put disap-
p0intment aud disillus0n, is decided, more
often than we think, by the fashion OF their
domestic life.
AS to the married couple where the wife
goes out into the world and becomes bread
winner, their manner Of living is another
! problem entirely. 1t is a problem belong
Ing almost exclusively TO our own century
and age. for the sphere of cur great-grand-
mothers seldom extended beyond their own
| domestic circles, and most Of us are still
conservative enough to find something pa
| thetlc IN the idea of q Young married
woman becoming a breadwinner.
Ambition, necessity, he possession Of
phenomenal talent, frequently force mar
Tied women to do a mans work. Ia numer-
Gus cases these women are gifted with the
rare power Of performing a mans and u
wOman's work simultaneously. There
is a pretty story illustrative of this
told of the late Lord BeacOnSfeld
and the scarcely less famous Doc
tor Elizabeth Garrett Anderson. The
statesman had heard Of woman
doctor whom leading physicians were be-
ginning TO call into consultation. In those
days women doctors were more rare than
at present, and though Dsrali had pictured
to himself some one hard aud masculine, his
curiosity won the day. aud he ntmated a
desire to visit the famous doctor. The lady
ing room and surrounded by her children,
and Lord Beacon stield went hone as much
won over by ter womanly graces as lie had
formerly been aStOnlshed at her medical
reputation.
Dr. Garrett Anderson, being a successful
practitioner, could naturally afford a beauti-
! ful home, but tie wife who is a struggling
/ business woman almost attempts the i'm
possible when she tries TO manage home
and attend 10 business at the same time.
For her restaurants and clearinghouse
are undiSgujsed blessings.

REA WAS FURIOUS.
He Wanted Leeds Declared in Con-
tempt.

BOmbastes FuTi0s0 Rea mounted the
high pedestal of an outraged digntary yes
terday when the Railroad Commission met
to hear testimony in the useless Shively in
yestigatiOn.
Leeds, the manager of the Traffic Asso-
citation, was absent when his name was
called. and his testimony had to be de-
ferred. His absence furnished an excuse
for Rea to assert himself.
This man Leeds is evidently discourteous
10 his board" said the high and mighty
chairman of the commission, "and 1 move
that he be declared in contempt, and that
the Sheriff be instructed to bring his body,
dead or alive. before this tribunal tomorrow
morning at 10 o'clock"
Hold on there" shouted Litcbfield, who
had been busy reading little book, entitled
The Powers and Duties of the Railroad
Commission" ave don't want to be rash.
Our bailiff has sufficient authority to force
witnesses to attend, and We don't need any
Sheriff"
IAN right" complied Rea. Let the
baililf be instructed to see that Leeds is
here on time tomorrow"
All the three Commissioners being satis-
fed with his conclusion, it was so ordered.
The only man who did not relish this COM
mand was Baliff Stafford. He said. 'All
right, sir" when Rea told him what lie was
eApecltu TO uO, DuS ~ cOulu pialUiy De seen
that he had but little hope of accomplishing
his task.
Attorney Richards, who appeared for
Shively. volunteered to produce other wit
nesses 10 fill in the time which must neces-
sarily elapse before Leeds could be corraled.
but Rea positively refused to listen TO any
testimony until he had that arch-cTim al
Leeds, " no dared to DEFY the Railroad Com
mission, brought before him.
The fact OF the matter was that the
Commissioners we'll knew Leeds had been
in Sacramento on Tuesday and they feared
he had not returned.
To cut his visit short ana to prevent him
from further butt0nholing legislators and
preiudicing them againstthe Railroad Com
mission, the order summoning him was
made perempt0ry.
Leeds, however. had finished his labors
in the State capital and had returned on an
early morning train.
Al the time when Rea stormed and raved
the traffic manager was getting ready to
attend the meeting of the commission. and
he arrived on the scene about half an hour
after the board had adjourned, quite Oh
liviOus of what had happened.
The only one of the Commissioners sim
present was Beckman, who informed
Leeds OF the order the board had made.
whereupon the latter relieved Stafford S
anxious mind by telling him that he would
voluntarily be in attendance to-day

Byrnes was granted his license by the SUI

IN SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO.
It Little Improvement-Tubbs Cord
age Company 70 Resume.

Bat Little improvement ubbs Cord
age Company 70 Resume.
Everything is very quiet in South San
Francisco just at present
This dizziness is largely due to the tempo
rary closing of Kentucky street, near the
FOurth-slreet bridge
The street is closed on account of the
work of construction on the Potrero and
Ocean View electric railway.
1t is thought, however, that this cause of
complaint will be removed some time to-
day. "a the work will then be near enough
to completion at that point to allow OF the
passage Of teams. The laying Of rails and
the filing in between them is now completed
as far out Kentucky street as Nevada. but
the time when cars Will be running is not
yet named.
The works of the Tubhs Cordage Com
pany are receiving a coat OF paint and being
otherwise put In condition to resume opera
tion at an early date, perhaps by the first of
the month. One feature of the proposed
resumption of work there, it is said, will be
the almost entire handling Of the plant by
white boys and girls.
Not many improvements are being made
now, and almost all the building is confined
TO PotreTO Hll, where several neat looking
cottages are being completed.
