THE MARKET-sTREET BRIDGE.

The citizens of San Francisco may con-
graduate themselves on the prospect that
in short while they will be able to en-
bark on, or alight from, the ferrv-boats on
the bay without risk TO Lie or limb. No
one has watched the melee of cable-cars
and trucks at the crossing on East street.
without wondering that it has not been the
scene of daily slaughter. A more danger
Gus spot Tor pedestrians can hardly be
conceived, and when it is remembered
that it is traversed daily by men, women,
children and infirm people, it is marvellous
that accidents have not been more fire.
quent.
The Harbor Commissioners have agreed
upon an elevated bridge. designed by Fl.
c. Holmes, to span the distance between
the end of Sacramento street and the
second story of the new ferry building.
The bridge is to be of light steel with
footway twenty feet wide covered with
smooth asphalt. It will have two spans of
106 and fifty-three feet respectively, and
its western end will rest on the angle be-
tween Sacramento and East streets. Here
foot passengers will ascend by flight of
easy steps to the bridge, and will walk
over it to the ferry building while the
cable-cars and drays circulate below. The
reception-room in the building will be on
the same level as the bridge, and its east
END will lead to the upper deck of the
ferry-boats.
The cost of the bridge is estimated at
$4,000, and authority will have to be
granted by the Legislature at Sacramento
to raise the money. as also to transfer to
the Harbor Commissioners the site of the
western pier on which the bridge will
rest.
1t is OF too much to say that the ferry
buildings and the labyrinth of car lines
fronting the landing on this side, have been
burning disgrace to San Francisco. The
ferry-boats are az commodious and suitable
as ferry-boats anywhere; but there is no
city in the United States of the size of San
Francisco which would have endured the
pen called walting-room. or the slaughter
trap on East street, as long as we have.
Strangers have stood aghsst at its con-
tenn plaiion. 1t has led them to question
whether community which permitted so
foul blot to separate the picturesque city
OF the coast from the glorious bay could
be awake TO the duty OF cultivating beauty.

TIE EPIDEMIC OF CRIME.

People in the residence quarter had bet
ter keep q lookout for burglars. On Fri
day morning the residence of julius
Franklin, on California street, was looted,
and the butler narrowly escaped with his
lie: and it now turns out, though the oc-
currence has been kept a profound secret
by the police, that on the 21st of Decem-
her the house of Thomas Brown, cashier
of the Bank of California. at 1913 Bush
street. was entered and quantity OF sill
yer and other valuable property carried
off. On this occasion the burglars pro-
ceeded with marked elaboration. They
went through the house from garrett to
basement aud partook OF fine supper,
with wine. in the dini1g-room. Mr..
Brown, who has said no with such en-
phasls TO so many men, had no opportun-
ity of throwing in his favorite negative.
On Saturday evening another Cable
car-this time car of the Jackson-street
lne-was stopped and robbed between
Devisadero and Broderick streets soon
after O'Clock. The plan of operations
was the same as that of the footpads who
stopped a UniGn-street car a few days ago.
A moment was chosen when the Jackson
street car was empty; pistols were
pointed at the heads of gripman and con-
ductor, and the latter was relieved of his
watch and money; after which the
thieves leaped off the car and were lost to
view.
In city like San Francisco desperate
characters may live for quite while by
stealing, though eventually they meet their
doom at the point of pistol or in a cell at
the penitentiary
1t is difficult to suggest remedy for the
prevailing epidemic of HOUSEKEEPING
and highway robbery. If two or three
of these robbers were shot the disease
would abate. If a few more were
sent to States prison for life, it might be
checked. Perhaps the most effectual
remedy would be increased vigilance on
the part of the police, in causing strangers
to account for themselves, and not stand
ing on techniealities in dealing with indi-
viduals whose faces and whose behavior
raised a suspicion that they were bad
characters.

San franciscans Take the Air at the
Park and Cliff.
Magnetism was iu the air yesterday out
in Golden Gate Park, up in Sutro Heights
and along the level stretches of beach and
driveways. A sharp breeze famed the
cheek and sharpened the laggard wits of
many pedestrian and more fortunate

love of nature and her manifold charms

along the coast, and the patrolmen on
duty at the life-saving station were alert
and vigilant UP to noon yesterday, when
the wild roar and splash of old Ocean
subsidized TO a minimum and became, to it's
auditors, song of eace.
1t is surprising what common. plain,

Sam Thompson of the park police and
three of his men spent the larger part of
an hour yesterday in lassong a fox terrier
which had gone into spaSms and was max

der the Firth wheel, at the fair grounds,
and shot before 1t had bitten any one.
There were many urnOuts, both in the
park and along tile beach, in the after

farmers apprehend mat their vineyards
and grain fields may be overlooked.
The season Is a repetition of those of
1871 and 1889. which are on record as the
wet years. 1t is too soon to assign place
10 the season Of 1S94-95. because two and
half months of the rainy season have yet
10 come. and they may be dry. According
to the meteorologists, there is no law on
the subject. There must be one, but our
knowledge Of the subject is too imperfect
to enable US to define it. At some future
time the almanacs will predict the rain fall
as they now predict eclipses. and then
farmers will govern their operations ac-
cordingly, providing reservoirs for rain in
seasons of precipitation and emptying the
reservoirs when periods Of drought come.
But that is in.the dim distance.
There can be no doubt but the cultiva-
ton of land. and its occupancy by man,
promo te the rainfall, though perhaps no,
in the direct way which meteorologisis
have declared. 1t has not been observed
that the plantation of orange and olive
groves and other fruit bearing trses, or
even the eucalyptus, has had decided
effect on the precipitation in southern
California. San Diego Is as badly off for
rain now as it was in the time of Cortes
and his followers. Yet not far from San
Diego, prehi,toric remains show that at
some remote period there must have been
rainfall enough to insure a steady success
sion of crops. As generaI rule, regions
which back up against mountain ranges
covered with snow in winter, are snre of a
copious spring rainfall. which is sometimes
torrential. But the region which leans
against the Rocky Mountains both on the
east and the west. is very dry. Texas
