After making his first payment he had
only 500 left, too little with which to build
house. He purchased three horse cars,
which had been discarded by the North
Beach and Mission road for which he paid
SIS each. Then he concluded to have the
cars taken out to his lot, paying $27 for the
work.
The three cars were set side by side, fac
ing north and south, on a firm foundation,
and the house was completed. Five dol
lars worth of lumber was put into a
chicken-house, and there was enough left
over to do some finishing in the middle
car, which will be used as a sitting-room.
The other two will constitute the kitchen

She represents the top development of
naval architecture from the b. G. period
to the civil war, and ships like her, or

High Buildings and Health.
Naxx Xork Sun

An ordNpance restricting the height OF
buildings, which was suggested a month or so
ago, was passed last week by the Board OF
SUPERVISORS OF San Francisco The extreme
feight OF a dreproof builaing is placed at lSO
feet, and only on streets 100 feet or more In
width may buildings OF that height be erected
On all narrower streets no building may be
erected hereafter TO greater height than loO
feet There was much discussion over the
ordinance Ono man urged that high buildings
give employment to a great many people, and
are u benefit 10 the community But another
member OF the Board expressed pretty
considerable proportion Of public opinion IN
san Francisco in saying: "High buildings
are not necessity They keep the sun on the
street and lessen the value OF adjoining real
estate They make the atmosphere near the
sidewalks chilly and are detrimental to health
High buildings are a sin against heaven. be
cause they deprive the people Of proper light
and air We do not take enough interest in
the welfare of our people"

Peanuts will be a very short crop this year.

quality OF the crop The Virginia crop Will
most likely be but half the sizJ of last years,

OUR SEPTEMBER TRADE.

The bureau OF statistics Of the treasury
department supplies some interesting
facts a. to our foreign trade OF last month.
Our exports OF domestic products and
man ufactures were 753, 500 less than in
September, 1894. This indicates how we
are capturing the markets OF the world.
But the manner in which the markets OF
the world are capturing US is a caution.
Last month we bought from foreign
countries to the extent OF s14, 5sS, 425
more than in September, 1894. This
makes the total of last months trade up
ward OF SIS, 800, 900 against us as COM
pared with year ago.
Our purcl ases of dutiable goods were
sl2, PAL, ,oo4 larger than in September last
year, thus showing in q remarkable man
ner how q free-trade tariff lessons the
"burden OF taxation" upon "the plain
people" by increasing the proportion OF
articles they use upon which they must
pay the free-trade "tarin tax"
