George taskins is a young man. ma

some months ago in search of his sister,
but not finding her, he shipped as a sailor
on board the steam whaler Orca, which re-
turned TO this port on November 10.
He was paid off on Friday, receiving
$40. Owing to his youth ana independence
of city life his shipmates strongly advised
him 10 take the train to San Diego that
night but he said he wanted TO see the
town and preferred TO wait till the next
steamer. as the fare was much cheaper.
Yesterday morning he was walking
along Kearny street, when pleasant
spoken young man introduced himself as a
native of San Diego. They quickly struck
up a friendship, and after having a few
drinks Haskins was invited to accompany
his new friend to 333h Bush street.

greater part of the expensive land litiea-
ton arises from the total lack of data upon
the old city official map. That map was
made in 1870, and is almost as far behind
the times as would State map be made at
that time. 1t is full Of the most glaring
errors. 1t fails to show great number of
streets that exist, and it has plainly
marked upon i, otherstreets that never did
exist excepl in the mind OF the man who
perhaps owned the property and thought
there should be streets
"a notable instance of the latter is the
case Of LaUrel street, as extended between
Turk and Eddy. from Larkin to Van Ness
avenue. Beyond Van Ness avenue Laurel
street is in actual existence. Judge Wal
lace's residence stands upon the corner of
.his street and Van Ness avenue. The
fact that it is on the map but mol in exist
ence south Of Van Ness has caused a law
suit, still undecided. the expense of which
alone would have paid for an official map
which would have obviated the suit.
There are many other such instances in
the city.
ITO make a new official map-full, re-
liable. accurate-is not to simply copy the
old one on new paper, as many Dinhead
politicians and penny-wise city legislators
seem to think" said Mr.. Fitzhugb little
bitterly. The following steps will be
necessary: All Of the old data available
should be obtained and corrected from
other data to be had in the Assessors
office and Hall of Records. All of the
maps. plats and subdivisions existing in
the Hall of Records should be carefully
distracted and examined as TO whether at
the time they were filed by the reputed
owners these reputed owners really
did own the land and had the legal right
TO lay out the streets upon it.
This is the trouble in the case of Laurel
