NATURE LENDS A HAND.

One of the most pleasing characteristics
of human nature is the cheerfulness with
which it adapts itself to conditions which
cannot be changed. If this were not so
the great majority of mankind would not
be living in regions where adverse natural
conditions compel fierce struggle to Sc
cure physical comfort. The most pleasant
parts of the world are inhabited but sparse
ly by races inferior 70 those who battle
for life in regions whose rigors stop Just
short of actual prohibition of life. TO
analyze the reasons which have produced
this extraordinary condition of affairs
would require more space than is available
here. 1t is sufficient to reflect that the
present order of things has not been a
vital factor in the production of a high
race of men, and that we enjoy pleasant,
natural conditions when we find them and
have learned their value.
Let US imagine that somewhere in the
State of New York there was region, say,
twenty miles square, having these pecu-
liarities. In the dead of winter, while
everywhere else in the State a bitter cold
benumbed the wea lthy and brought suffer-
ing to the poor; where the ground was
covered with snow and all the forces of
nature were locked up in a relent-
less grasp-in this spot of twenty
miles square the people were enjoy
ing their Christmas in an air so
balmy and a sunshine so warm that
oranges grow in the open fields and the
gardens are riotous with bloom. Ii there
happened to be rain it would be warm and
gentle and would soon pass away; but
never snow or ice. The people would be
abroad with nature, laughing and singing
with her and taking into their blood the
fine tonic which brings color to the cheeks,
brightness to the eyes and will in the
heart and strength in the arm to be up
and doing, and to be enjoying life while
working out its destiny.
How many of all who could afford to
pass the holidays in that small spot would
deny themselves the enjoyment? And
what scramble there would be for a
permanent home within its boundaries!
If, added to it's delicious climate, there
should be the most bewitching and in
splIlng scenery, what incredible prices
would not those most blessed with worldly
goods be willing and anxious to pay for
residence there? Ten thousand dollars an
acre would be bagatelle-the land would
fetch thousands of dollars a front foot.
And yet that twenty square miles would
contain only the conditions which make
California what it is; would have only the
elements that bind Californians to their
soil and make them bless the fate which
led them hither and which urges them to
bring others to enjoy the blessings
which are theirs. In the odor of flowers
and the warmth of a genial sun they enjoy
their Christm as, and their enjoyment is all
the finer for the health and freedom and
ambition which such conditions impart.

AROUND THE CORRIDORS.

81 see that many of the men who have here
tofore posed as millionaires and leaders of So
clety in the boom towns of the North are fast
coming to grief" said a former resident OF
Seattle yesterday at the Lick.
The stories from Tacoma printed III THE
CALL do not surprise me in the least In all
the boom towns there are gathered adventur-
ers from the four corners of the globe. 1t was
so at Tacoma, Seattle, Spokane. Anacortes,
Whatcom, Fairhayen and hundreds OF other
places where the names of the towns even ere
now forgotten.
1.-THE way they did business is enough to
astonish men OF the older communities and
stead1er ways. Inscriptions is no proper
word to use in referring to them. 1t does not
reach the degree OF unworth attained by them.
"The men who broke the banks aud wrought
ruin on thousands, who put up jobs ana stole
city funds are of the class referred to and rela-
tive 10 which the dispatches have teemed dur
ing the last two years.
"Many of them had no money when they
came, but by a few lucky turns in town lots
during the boom they blossomed out as bank
ers and promoters of various sorts. The
strange part of ii was that the majority of the
people were willing to recognize them as lead
ers and did so recognize them and heaped
honors upon them. They grew arrogant and
there was no demand they were not ready to
make.
.'These ignorant rich, as Henry George has
1t, ruled everything. They were insuherable
in their insolence. For one l am devoutly
glad that they are now all broke. 1 only re-
greet that they have stolen so much from other
people Ofcourse, among the ruined men are
some who did business honorably, but with
the majority honor was not thing that both
cred.
"They sidetracked all conscientious scruples
and swindled right and left where they could.
Playing on margins as most OF them did, they
were dragged down in the swirl when the
bubble burst. There was never anything to
surpass it before in the way of retributive
justice. They ought to have been broke long
before they WERE"

A WONDERFUL PICTURE.

1t may not be within the reach of liv-
ing painters brush to put intelligently on
canvas the mystical effects of night view
from one of the conspicuous elevations o.
San Francisco, but that is not the fault of
the living, palpitating picture which
greets the observer on these still and clear
December nights. Photographers, whose
enterprise and daring are never appalled,,
have essayed the task with camera, and
have produced results which are only
weird, grotesque and fiat, lacking the mar
Vicious depth and far-reachhg perspective
of the scene which the eye beholds. And
yet it is conceivable that in the years to
come a painter will arise who will assail
the task, and while doing so break away
from the traditions upon which his art is
founded, and startle the world as the gen.
tie Rembrandt did when he painted his
famous picture of a dissection.
For the production of such painting as
will reveal the true spirit of night view
of San Francisco a canvas of generous
size will be required, and for it's proper ex-
hibition certain accessories different from

CORRECT PRONUNCIATION.

BY means of a communication published
in The CALL, A. S. Hallidie has made q
timely appeal for the correct pronunciation
of the name of Kearny street. He rightly
says that it should be called Karny, as it
was named for General kearny. For that
matter, so many familiar names in Cali
fornia are pronounced incorrectly that it
is time movement was begun to reform
popular custom. That might prove hope
less task, but good deal of pleasure could
be drawn from the effort.
1t is in the pronunciation of Spanish
names that we blunder lamentaby, and
yet they are numerous in the State and the
most musical that we have. The people,
almost without exception, pronounce San
incorrectly, giving the "a" the short sound,
instead OF the broad. This is a part of so
many names of places in California, and
the habit of mispronouncing it is so fixed
that it would be almost useless to under
take campaign of education concerning it.
Another grievous prevalent error is the
habit of giving the sound of ~" to the ''s''
in many Spanish names. Thus San Jose
is commonly pronounced as though the
IS" in Jose were ~" There is no so"
sound in the Spanish language. Wherever
"s' appears it should be given sharp
sibilant sound, as in these two last words.
Alameda suffers generally. though not
so universally, for while there are many
who know that in Spanish 'e" is always
pronounced as long "a" there are more
who are ignorant of the fact and call the
musical name Alameda.
Spaniards have soft way of rolling the
''r' that is very effective. They handle it
differently from any other nation, and so
round do they make the roll that they
often seem to be Guiding the letter alto
gether. They do not, however, as every
letter in every word of their language is
pronounced. In taking care to preserve
sensible relation between spelling
and pronunciation they represent an idea

Over the River of Dropping Eyes
Is the wonderful Land of Dreams
Where lilies grow as white as snow,
And fields Of green and warm winds blow,
And the tall reeds culver all in a row
And no one ever cries;
For it's a beautiful place for girls and boys,
And there's no scoding, and lots of noise,
A nd no lost balls or broken toys
Over the River of Dropping Eyes
In the beautiful Land of Dreams.
Over the River of Dropping Eyes
In the beautiful Land OF Dreams.
There are horns to blow and drums to beat,
And plenty of candy and cakes to eat,
And no one ever cleans his feet,
And one ever tires!

And birds and bees they throng all day.

which is the extreme opposite of the Eng.
lish fashion. 1t was the habit of our Eng.
lish cousins to make as wide breach as
possible between spelling and pronunci-
alton that caused Victor Hugo to e1claim
in despair in his "L'Homme Qul Rlt,
1.-The best way to pronounce an English
name is not to pronounce it at all"
Still, as we get some of our names from
England we should preserve the English
pronunciation. For that reason we should
say Barkly when speaking OF the charm
ing town across the bay.
While there is nothing more offensive
than pedantry, and while it is often
charged against Americans by English
men that We make our language drawing
and pedantic by giving too much value to
letters composing words. we have not the
right to change the pronuncia tlon of a
dlstinctively foreign name which we de-
llberately adopt. If the schools OF Cali
fornia would take this matter in hand they
would perform valuable service and in
time effect complete reformation.
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-12-25

those suited to the display of ordinary
paintings. The task of production is SIM
plified by the fact that no impression OF
motion is to be conveyed. It is vast ex-
panse of still and brilliant darkness,
punctured with many-colored street lights,
illuminated windows and bands OF light
streaming across the roadways from open
doors.
The most impre ssive aspect of the scene
is its vas tness, and its most mystical quail
ity is its depth. The common way of treat
ing night scene in city is to give close
view that ends in an interrupted distance.
This treatment produces feeling of mys-
terry, for unseen things lie in the darkness
which closes the perspective. But such a
scene as that presented from one of the
high hills of San Francisco needs the de-
picting of distance, which in itself is a
mantle of mystery, covering all that lies
under the eye.
No city in all the world presents more
wonderful picture than that of San Fran
cisco from the bay. II the point OF view is
chosen sufficiently near the shore the in
tense blue-black OF the sky is still found
sufficiently illuminated by stars to show
ment; and if there is slight breeze PEN
nant here and there is seen futtering aloft.
Behind the masts lie the lights of the City
In all their bewitching variety of form and
color and in wide diversity OF arrangement
and direction. The soft yellow light of
the gas lamps, which in the farther dis
lance twinkle like stars, the red lights in
dicating the situation OF fire-alarm boxes,
and The many vari-colored lights OF resorts
along the quay, with foreground OF dark
water. on whose waves all these colors
dance and writhe, and background lost
on the SUBMITS of the hilis-that is a
picture the painting of which will yet
make some artist world-famous.
An equally beautiful but very different
effect is secured if the summit OF Califor-
MIA hill be taken for the point OF view;
and from that point each of the four main
points of the compass presents its especial
charms. Toward the north lie reaches of
light sweeping down the valley, and tn en-
up to the SUBMITS of Russian and Tele-
graph hills, and on either side of them the
black waters of the bay, with its ships
lights, Alcatraz, and the glittering light
points which mark the line of the Contra
Costa shore and camp in struggling array
well up into the hills beyond
