BUDD STILL BESIEGED.
He Comes to San Francisco and Is
Beset by PoIiticians-Many of
Them EIuded.

Governor Budd arrived yesterday morn
ing. At once an army of politicians were
on his trail. Most of these he was able to
avoid. Others he sought.
Among those whom he went to see was
Elk Senator Pat Reddy. A long interview
ensued in that gentleman's Office, in which
his partner, Mr.. Metson, was included
Later Ed Reddy was called in and joined
the council.
Ed Reddy, it is said, is to be appointed
warden at San Quentin.
1t was rumored that the Governor would
appoint the Board of Health last night
There can be no doubt that the expected
event VIII occur in the next day or two. 1t
is generally conceded that DIR. Albert
Happersberg will be the physician.
Joseph Dryer claims to have the promise
OF two positions in the Board of Health
One is for his brother as secretary; the
other is for ex-Deputy Sheriff Finton as
steward of the City and County Hospital.
The latter appointment If made will,
it is said, cause a bitter fight. The stew
ard occupies place of great responsibility.
He can overlook the furnishing of low
grace or short-measure supplies and assist
in other measures for stealing from the
treasury. He can also add materially to
the comfort and well-being of the inmates
OF the hospital and save the county much
money.
If the Board of Health appointments
are made for political reasons the city will
suffer. If Governor Budd chooses the men
only for their fitness, without regard to
politics, he will have a board that by CO.
operation with Mayor Sutro and the better
element will be valuable instrument for
good.
Considerable interest is felt in the pos
sible refusal of Robert Y. Hayne of a
place on the Code Commission. The story
is now being generally circulated that he
will decline the proffered position.
The story that has gained circulation is
that Mr.. Hayne feels that to give up his
practice in order to go to Sacramento for
| two years would require too great sacri-
fee. 1t would have to be made if he took
the place, though, as the bill creating the
| commission specifies that the commission
ers shall hold their meetings in a room at
the State Capitol building.
Who Mr.. Haynes successor will be or
who are booked for the other two places no
one seems prepared to state. H. Baldwin
OF the firm of Baldwin & Thompson of
Stockton, o. ?. Boyce of the firm OF Boyce
q Taggart of Santa Barbara and S. S.
Wright Of Fresno, are all named. The last
IS not considered as a very probable subject
for the gubernatOrial favor

CONVENIENCE OF ANCESTRY

An Interesting Theory Which Professor
Brooks Expounds.
1t goes without saying that man has
two parents, four grandparents, eight
great-grandparents and so on, so that if
we go back, say, ten generations, doubling
at each step, we have 2048 ancestors. This
sort of argument has been used by super
fetal genealogists to show that at the time
of William the Conqueror each of us had
more ancestors than the total population
of England, hence we must each be de-
scended from every Englishman of that
day, including the immortal William him
self, says the New York World.
The absurdity of this sort of reasoning
has just been pointed out by Professor
Brooks of Johns Hopkins. His immediate
object is to establish point in the theory
of evolution, but he confutes all silly gene
alogists at the same time. While it is true
that we do have four grandparents they
need not be four separate and distinct per-
sons. First cousins have not more than
three separate grandparents; if they are
doubly cousins they have but two. So
in the tenth generation ones 204S an
cestors are never 2048 separate persons
they abound in duplicates" so to speak,
as every one knows who has tried to trace
his descent, not in one line, but in all pos
sible liues. These duplicates abound espe-
cially in small communities, whose inhab-
itants have intermarried for years.
Besides this the lines from given pair
of ancestors tend to become extinct sooner
or later, so, as ancestry is traced back, the
probability is that all the persons living in
a given community will be found to be de-
scended, not from all, but from a very
few-perhaps only one or two-of the in
habitants of the community, as they were
centuries ago. So instead of having all
Englishmen of the year 1000 for our ances-
tors, the probability is that we are de-
scended from comparatively few of them
the number may be technically many
thousands, but one individual does duty
for several scotes, or even several hundreds
of these, the lines of ancestry converging
upon him from many different directions.
This is what Professor Brooks calls the
s'conyergence of ancestryn

our prospective meeting. But when ar
rived at Port Said / got cable announcing
his death. That made me hurry on at
once, although 1 had intended to spend
some time in the colonies on my way"
Of the unpublished work left by Steven
son Mr.. Baxter has already sent on home
for publication the manuscript of "St.
Ives" a novel which was almost COM
pleted, wanting only about two chapters.
1t will be published as tits, of course. The
story is of the capture and escape of a
French officer during the Napoleonic wars
from a prison in Scotland and his adven-
lures in that country and in France.
Then Mr.. Baxter has with him the
proofs of what will be entitled the ''Vai-
lima Letters" This is series of monthly
letters written by the novelist to his friend
Sidney Colvin, Keeper of the Prints at the
British Museum. They are, in fact, a
journal of his life in Samoa sent off once a
month.
Mr. Baxter has also with him the manu-
script of what Stevenson had written OF
Weir of Hermiston," the work he was on
at the time of his death. In fact he had
worked on it ON the very day of his death.
This, he thought, would be his master
piece. However, only about a third of it
had been written, but that is complete as q
part and will be published.
Besides these there is q small book of
fables which had been promised to the
Longmans, the publishers, and Letters to
Children, which are to be published in
the Youths Companion. These are mostly
letters written to his young heir, Austen
Strong, by Stevenson.
Mr.. Baxter has never been in this coun-
try before, and will remain in San Fran
cisco about week. He is writer to the
Signet in Edinburgh, solicitor with GER
tain special privileges.
Mr.. Baxter is one of the most eminent Of
Free Masons in Scotland, where he has
been supreme grand master. He has taken
the thirty first degree, and two years ago
was received by King Oscar of Sweden,
who is an enthusiastic Mason, to return
thanks for the Grand Lodge of Scotland
for Swedish contributions to the great Ma
sonic bazaar in Edinburgh.

local politics. [ am nearly 40 now, and
what have | to show for my work? / had
several appointive places at home, but they
were permanent only so long as my friends
were at the helm. None of them paid any
better than a steady job in some mercantile
business considering the assessments and
expenses connected with political berth.
II came to Washington with the Fifty
third Congress. Even after | was located
here | had to make several trips home to
look after the interests of my Congress
man, and in the last election | spent every
dollar | had to help him at the polls. He
was elected, but now comes a recess of nine
months with no work for me to do, and he
goes home, leaving me to look out for my
self as best / can. While Congress was in
session I received my 500 month, but no
pay during the recesses. The committee
of which my member was chairman
had no allowances for a committee clerk.
But it happened to have a great
deal of work to do, and | per-
formed the clerical work of the committee
in addition to looking after the chairman's
private correspondence, under the illusion
that the House would make special al
lowance for the committee. A bill to that
effect was introduced, but it was defeated
by the various watchdogs of the treasury,
and my extra work was all gratis. Ny

The Chicago Millionaire's Eagle Eye.

Another story illustrative of the daily
life of Chicago millionaire may help to
explain why some people have more money
than others.
Fhis millionaire invited vititor from
another city to meet him at a certain hour
and accompany him to the stockyards,
where he had large interests.
The millionaire rode up in a sidebar
buggy, somewhat the worse for mud and
wear, drawn by shaggy but active horse.
He explained that before starting for the
yards he would have to 60 to one of the
large banks downtown, as he was on the
board which regulated loans, and he had
to pass on an application for loan of
$500, 900.
They stopped in front of the bank, and
the rich man hurried in and remained
several minutes. He came out on run
and they started rattledy-ba for the
stockyards and Packingtown.
When they arrived and were entering
the packing-house they saw an old man
sorting out into barrels heap of bones and
fatty remnants. The bones were trimmed
and put into one barrel and the flesh and
fat into another barrel. The millionaire
owner of the place walked over to the
workman and began asking questions.
Then he drew off his coat, rolled back his
shirt sleeve to the shoulder and began
rummaging among the bones. He found
several which had not been properly
stripped, and the workman received a
scolding which he will remember all his
life.
The stripping of those bones was just as
important as the loaning of 500,000.-Chi-
cago Record.

STEVENSON'S LAST WORK
His Friend Charles Baxter
Brings the Manuscript
From Samoa.
AN UNFINISHED MASTERPIECE.
journal of His Life In Samoa-Other
Works Are to Be Pub
IiShed.

Charles Baxter, whom Robert Louis
Stevenson named executor of his will, ar
rived in this city yesterday from the Sa-
moan Islands on the steamer Alameda.
The two were chums as boys together in
Edinburgh at school and remained lifelong
friends. Two of the dead novelist's stories,
kidnapped" and Katrina" were dedi-
Gated to Baxter, who has always managed
his literary business for him. He has with
him the manuscripts of Stevenson's last
works, which he is taking to England for
publication.
He said last evening at the Occidental:
II was not in Samoa when Stevenson died.
There had been long-stanuing promise to
go out and visit him, and finally last De-
cember started from London. At Brin-
dist I got most enthusiastic letter from
him, expressing the pleasure in store at
