ASCENT OF MATTERHORN.
PROFESSOR JORDANS LECTURE Be
FORE THE HAWTHORNE
SOCIETY.
HEAVIEST MAN WHO EVER CLIMBED
THE MOST DIFFICULT OF
THE ALPS.

The Hawthorne Society's entertainment
crowded the large hall of the Young Mems
Christian Association last evening. The
principal feature of the exercises was Pres
ident Jordan's lecture on his ascent of the
Matterhorn.
Judge Van Duzer, who introduced the
lecturer, spoke of the good work the soci-
ETY. was doing in increasing the intellectual
activity of this city.
Professor Jordan gave short history of
the futile attempts made to reach the sum-
nit of the jagged, three-cornered cone un-
til its top was finally mounted by the party
of Whipper, Lord Douglas, Croz and 9th
ers, of whom Whipper was the only one to
make the descent alive. He spoke of the
continual disintegrating of the surface and
constant falling of rocks that gave this
glacierless creature of sun and frost the
evil reputation it had among the people of
the country about as the abode of Satan,
while Ruskin, who had never been very
near it, wrote of the Matterhorn as having
no sign of change or decay"
1t was not until the beginning of this
century that there was much mountain
elm bling done, owing TO the superstitious
awe that prevailed in regard to mountains as
the abode of evil spirits. The people about
the Matterhorn believed that it was to it's
summit that Satan often came with some
of his evil spirits as to summer resort to
cool off, and amused himself by hurting
down stones at the people below.
The first ascent of Mont Blanc, the first
of the Alps to be climbed, was made by
some students from Geneva seventy years
ago, but the Matterhorn was the most diff
cult of all and its summit was never
reached until 1865, after many futile at
tempts had been made and many lives
lost.
The professor was in the village OF Yer
matt with some other American college
men in 1881, and six of them made the as
cent with five guides, the leader of whom
was the celebrated Jean Baptiste Aymono.
who had so often climbed the Jagged cone
and who had placed on the most perilous
places the ropes used for years by the peo-
pie who dared the journey.
The professor told graphic story of the
arduous and dangerous ascent, part of
which was made in heavy snowstorm.
President Jordan enjoys the distinction
ever climbed the Matterhorn. He weighed
at the time 214 pounds, and weight makes
a great deal of difference where each man
has to haul himself up almost perpen-
dicularly at times by q rope hand over
hand, and at other times must be pulled
up over precipices by his companion. In
the party were DR.. Gilbert and Professor
Anderson, both now of Stanford Univer-
sity
The rest of the programme of the even
ing consisted of songs by the Plymouth
male quartet, and barytone solo by Will
liam Harper.

TENTH STREET HOME.
Affairs of the Institution Are, Accord
ing to an Investigating Committee,
Honestly Conducted.

About three weeks ago some very ugly
reports rejecting on the managers of the
Mems Home on Tenth street gained cir
culation. 1t was limited that under the
cloak of charity the managers were reap
ing rich financial harvest and conducting
things generally to suit themselves.
DR.. Jerome A. Anderson admitted that
while he was president of the institution
he had never been called upon to attend a
meeting of the board of directors, though
he was sure that Mrs. Moore and Mrs
Gator, the managers, were conducting the
home honestly On the suggestion of Mrs.
Moore he appointed Captain Bonestell, the
paperman, and Captain Johnson, a clerk
on Sansome street, to expert the books.
Mrs. Moore asked for a weeks time in
which to get her books ready, which re-
quest was granted by President Anderson.
Last Friday the experts made a report,
to the effect that everything was honestly
conducted, vouchers being on hand for
every cent expended. At this same meet
ing the board of directors, consisting of
Mrs. t. V. Gator, Mrs. Broughton Ca sister
OF Mrs. Cator) and DR.. Anderson, voted
Mrs. Moore a salary Of $40 per month and
also allowed her claim of $40 per month,
which she had paid to herself since the
home was started in 1892.
But there is one other point that causes
comment In the report issued by Mrs.
Gator in February last for the two years
ending March 1, 1894, the name of A. H.
Sanborn appears as director and vice
president AT the first and only meeting
of the directors held two weeks ago, to or.
der the investigation referred to above,
Mrs. Gator, the treasurer, stated that Mr..
Sanborn regretted he could not be present.
as previous business engagement would
prevent. Mr.. Sanborn makes the state
ment that he is not member of the board
of directors, has never been asked to at
tend meeting, and if his name has been
used in any way by the managers of the
home it was without his authority or
knowledge. In speaking of the financial
statement issued by Mrs. Gator, Mr. San
born says. at has been brought to my
attention that statement of the transac-
lions of the Mems Home Benevolent So
ciety on Tenth street, has been published
over my name as vice-president and direc-
tor, wish to state that l have never had
any connection with that institution and
know nothing of it's AFFAIRS

Holmes ~ she harisor board said Yesterday
that hc believed that I'M time electric mo-
tors would be used instead of locomotives
for hauling the freightcars on the belt line
along the water front, as il being done in
the East. The act of March 10, 1859, de-
timing the powers of the board as 10 this
line, provides that it NAV adopt regula-
tons TO prevent the passage OF trains, en-
gines and cars over said road across streets
OF the city at such hours and in such man
ner as may interfere with the safe and con-
venient use of the streets. This would en-
able the board to require most of the
handling OF freight to be done at night,
and leave the boulevard comparatively free
Tor passenger traffic during the day.
At the meeting of the board of directors
held yesterday afternoon the bids for ma
terial were opened and the following
awards made:
Rails and plates, John F. Merrill spikes,
Miller, Sloss 81 Scott; bolts and nuts,
Durham, Carrigan & Hayden.
The rails purchased are of American
make, but the directors refused to give out
the price paid or the name of the makers.
Ten thousand tons was the amount pur-
chrsed.
The pooling project was also discussed,
but action thereon was deferred until to-
day, when another meeting will be held
and the plan will probably be adopted.

DEEPLY INUNDATED.
j. c. Woldfang Kicked by Henry Miller.
the Cattle King.

J. G. Woldfang applied for warrant in
Judge Joachimsen's court yesterday for
the arrest of Henry Miller of the firm of
Miller & Lux on the charge of battery,
and the warrant clerk took the matter
under advisement
Woldfang said he was for some years
superintendent of Mr.. Miller's ranch in
Monterey County and was discharged for
circulating story detrimental to his en-
ployer. He wrote several letters of apology
to Mr.. Miller and his wife, but received no
reply. Then he began calling at Mr..
Miller's Office, sos California street, for
payment of 800, balance due him for SER
vices rendered at the ranch.
Mr.. Miller refused to see him. so on
tuesday he took up a position in the hall
way OF SOB California street and waited for
hours TIL that gentleman made his appear
ance. He asked for a settlement and Mr..
Miller invited him into his office, where
he made out check for $50 and a recent

After signing the receipt he got the check
and was leaving the office when he alleged
Mr.. Miller called him a scoundrel and
kicked him out. He said he felt deeply
Inundated at such treatment and wanted
Mr.. Miller punished for it.

OHICAGO'S GREAT CANAL.
1t Has an Important Bearing on the
Nicaraguan Enterprise.

Nicaraguan Enterprise.
Ossian Guthrie, the originator of the
Chicago system of sanitation, related to
the members of the Geographical Society
of the Pacific Tuesday evening how the
construction of the Chicago Drainage
canal may facilitate the Nicaragua canal
enterprise, and how the Chicago main
drainage waterway developed into the Lake
Michigan and Mississippi river ship canal.
Mr.. Guthrie explained with the aid of
maps that great glacial district once ex-
listed to the north of the lakes, and that the
mass of ice forced down had cut profound
channel. passing by the spot where Chicago
now stands to the Mississippi River. The
ancient channels had become filled up, but
they are being excavated as far as Joliet.
Water will be taken from Lake Michigan
at the rate of 900 cubic inches a second
and turned into the Illinois River, there by
causing an outlet for the sewerage of Chi
cago and creating 325 miles of navigable
stream. This is done by cutting through
the rim of Lake Michigan to Joliet, forty
| miles away. That channel will be 100 feet
wide at the bottom 200 feet at the top and
| the depth of water from % to 26 feet.
When the Government provides locks for a
distance OF forty miles ship canal will
thus be opened 1926 miles long. The cost of
| the work will be $27 $780, 600. The work is
about half completed and will be finished
In the summer OF next year.
Mr.. Guthrie stated that the great work
had been such an educator of the con-
| tractors that they had learned to excavate
the rocks for half of what it cost five years
ago. The same contractors could to-day
do the excavating of the Nicaragua canal
for half OF the estimated cost of five years
ago. and this fact, Mr.. Guthrie said, showed
that the pQSt of 10 int at,ic or "
would now be only half as large as before.
He therefore urged that paid bureau of
| information be established in San Fran
cisco and other cities to bring influence on
the next Congress, and then, he had no
doubt, the Nicaragua canal bill would pass.

number of ballots examined by the court
which had been objected to for various
reasons, but all these were passed upon as

The fact that the struggle over the ques-
ton OF incorporation had terminated in
favor of those who voted for the measure
and who are known as the progressionists
of the town of 1900 inhabitants whose
homes are nestled among the trees on the
terraced slopes of the southern end OF
Marin County, was received with mani
festations of Joy by the people, That is,
the majority of them, for since the election
many who were then lukewarm in the
matter have come to the conclusion that it
is time the ingenuity of man should add to
the attractions of nature.
The stars and stripes were flying in the
breeze from the flagstaff on the top of the
residence of Commodore c. II. Harrison,
the pioneer of the town, he who carried
the first boatload of passengers from San
Francisco to Old Sausalito in the days of
'49. Then the fact was announced by a
bulletin at the railroad depot, and the
people when they read it exclaimed. Now
we shall have improvements" A. D. Bell
said:

for now we shall be able to have decent road

10 either macadamize Water avenue, which
skirts the foot of the hill from old Sausalito to
the town limits on the northwest, or pave it
with bitumen. i, for one, do not like macadam,
for If you water it mud is produced, and if il is
not watered there is dust. That win probably
be one of the first things done by the Town
Trustees.
The town of Sausalito, which4ha all the
natural advantages to make it the prettiest
terraced town in the State, has only re-
Gently been aroused to realization that it
is time to wake up and 'get move on, I"
and this has been forcibly impressed upon
the inhabitants by the action of President
Stetson of the North Pacific Coast Railroad
Company. The company has recently fin
ished one of the finest ferry landings in
the State, and the depot is one that would
be a credit to any city of greater preten-
sions. The company at its own expense
and of its own motion removed its fence
thirty feet northward along the line of its
property and filled in the space so as to
make the roadway, which was only thirty
feet wide, twice that width. Said DR.. III. j..
Crumpton, one of the Town Trustees:
That act of the company is one that is CRATE
fully appreciated by all, and not only has this
been done, but the company, through the in
tercession of Commodore Harrison, laid a
temporary track and brought down rock TO en-
able the property-owners, at their own ex-
pensc, to build bulkhead and put in good
condition Water avenue from Princess to old

No EXPENSE Is BEING SPARED TO

There are few dog-fanciers in the city
who do not know Tiny, the little Japanese
pug owned by G. L. Holbrook of 321 Clip
per street. Tiny is a small animal, but
owing to its long pedigree is worth its
weight in gold. 1t was imported from
Japan at great expense two years ago.
Tiny is seriously i'll at present with
complaint which is battling the skill of
three physicians. The animal is a beauti-
ful creature, with glossy black and white
hair, and in the days of robust health it
tipped the beam at twelve pounds.
Tiny has lost three pounds during the
past two weeks, and is steadily losing flesh
