JAMES LICKs MEMORY.
A Proposition to Erec5 a Monument I
1t in Golden Gate Park.

A Proposition to EreC5 a Monument to
1t in Golden Gate Park.
At the meeting of the Pioneers on last
Monday Charles M. Plum, at one time
one OF the Lick trustees, offered a resoln-
ton to the effect that it was the sense of
the meeting that statue of or monument
in memory of James Lick be placed in
Golden Gate Park. Before the question
was put to vote the mover requested that
it be postponed until the first Monday in
March.
The proposition that there should be
monument to the memory of the great
philanthrophst was argued few weeks
since IN an informal way by some of the
members of the Society of California
Pioneers, and it was suggested that it
should be erected in front of the Pioneer
building, but as the discussion became
more general, it was suggested that it
ought to be in the park, where greater
number OF people might see it.
1t is expected that others who have been
benefited by the iberality of James Lick

The Arguments That Will Be
Used Regarding the Tidal
Canal.
FOR TWO APPROPRIATIONS.
Probability That Money Enough May
Be Obtained TO Cover Both of
Oakland's Projects.

The conflicting interests of the two fac
tions now engaged in the promotion of the
Oakland Harbor improvement projects
give promise that more thorough hear
ing viii be obtained in Congress this year
than ever before, and it is anticipated that
generous appropriation will be the result
Ihere is no opposition on the part OF
anybody except the railroad people to any
part of the Oakland harbor work, the
present dispute being merely as to what
work shall be done first.
Ex-Congressman Warren b. English,
who worked valiantly and successfully for
the harbor appropriations while in Con-
gress, is now at the head of the Oakland
custom house, and so he is specially inter-
ested in having the estuary dredged out so
that ships of any draght can reach Oak
land. He is urging the immediate dredg-
ing OF the lower harbor to give his city the
full commercial advantage of its location
on the bay, and associated with him are all
the business men who would be directly
benefited by immediate improvement OF
the transportation facilities.
The people who are concerned more di-
rectly about the sanitary improvement are
through during the coming year. These
are led by DR.. ]. T.. Mclean, who, as
already announced in The CALL, has gone
to Washington in the interest of the meas
ure. On the side of the Health Officer are
the business men and residents OF Alameda,
Fruitvale and that part of Oakland which
borders on the upper portion of the har-
bor and surrounds Lake Merritt; and the
yachtsmen also take great interest in the
canal project.
The reasons for wanting to have the
canal completed are embodied in the me.
mortal which DR.. Mclean has taken to
Washington. This memorial is as follows,
though some of the signatures have been
revoked so as not to antagonize the effort
to have the dredging in the lower harbor
continued.

AN EARLY SHOWING.
Some of the Dainty Wash Fabrics for the
Leap Year Summer Girl.

Some of the Dainty Wash Fabrics for the
Leap Year Summer Girl.
The frost-bitten. snow-bound denizens
of the large Eastern cities would think
that merchant who displayed summer
shirt waists and wash fabrics at this season
of the year was out of his mind, but here
in San Francisco it is taken as a matter of
course to buy dainty dimities and percales
in midwinter.
Early last week Kohlberg, Strauss &
Frohman made the first display of new
summer wash fabrics-love1y imported
dimities and percales and an entirely new
cotton weave called Batiste Brode, which
the manufacturers think will be the most
popular cotton dress ia brio of the year.
In another department of the Post-street
store the busy salesfolk were, when The
CALL representative stepped in, marking
great stacks of shirt waists for the 1896
summer girl-shirt waists with immense
sleeves, whose "bigness'' extended away
down to the cuff instead of stopping at the
elbow and falling in folds, as they did last
year. Throngs of women clustered around
these new goods and evidently believed in
taking time when time is, - for they
bought literally of what they deemed the
prettlest patterns and styles. Perhaps
they don't intend to wear these pretty
summer fittings for two or three months,
but they certainly had first choice of
charming stock
There was a wonderfully good glove be-
Ing sold atanother counter for 70 cents a
palr-and probably they are not all gone
yet-a lovely eight button length Mousque-
talre, lustas well made and handsome as
many pair that cost 81 so or more. The
ribbon counter appeared to be a most
attractive part OF the store. This house
has on display dozens and dozens of bolts
OF the beautiful new warp print ribbons
Ihe patterns are printed in brilliant coIors
on the warp OF the ribbon, before the weav-
ing Is completed, producing an effect when
the ribbon is finished indescribably soft
and rich. They are .undoubtediy the love-
hest neck and bonnet ribbons ever made,
being SO pretty that they almost make the
plain woman look charming.
Inere is no excuse for any woman not
owning two or three pretty evening waists,
when wash-silks, that are by the " ay all silk
can be had for rs cents a yard, including
any number of pretty patterns and colors
to suit all compilations. The newest dress
silks, however, received by this firm are
heavy black brocaded grosgrained with
odd patterns in the warp print effect at
81 10 and 81 IS per yard. The saleslady
said sthey almost stand alone and the
wrinkles shake out of them readily"
No dry goods emporium of the largest
Eastern cities show more designs of the
latest novelties than the leading establish
ments of this City, of which Kohlberg.
Strauss 81 Frohman is one of the best ex-
ampleS.

For the Youths, Direotorx.

Secretary Kane of the Pacific Coast Society
for the Prevention OF Cruelty to Children in
creased the number of inmates of the Youths
Directory by two yesterday. One was the baby
boy OF Mr.. and Mrs. Russell Mitchell, Chestnut
place. The mother, dissipated woman, de-
serted the child about week ago and the
father, a longshoreman, was arrested on Mon
day in a drunken condition. The baby half
naked and dirty, was found on the sidewalk in
front OF the house by some neighbors, and was
taken to the City Prison by Policeman Fan
ming. The other was Frank Tracy, the news
boy, who played a confidence game on resi-
dents OF Turk street last Friday by telling them
he was an orphan from New York. His parents
live at "a Clementina street.

The Secretary and Controller of
the Southern Pacific Is
No More.
END OF a BRILLIANT CAREER.
Nervous ProStration From Overappli.
cation in the Railways Cause
Kills Him.

G. L. Lansing, secretary and controller
OF the Southern Pacific Company, died at
his home, 1885 Pacific avenue, yesterday
morning. The Immediate cause of his
death was hemorrhage, which, however,
resulted from the complete shattering of
his health consequent upon many years of
wearying work, which included various
matters of policy and the trying fights of
the railway corporation against the people.
Mr.. Lansing's last efforts were made
during the investigation OF the Southern
Pacifc's California freights by the Railroad
Commissioners, and after that he was COM
PEELED to go home for rest and recupera-
ton. 1t was against the advice of friends
and his physicians that he persisted in

Market and Fifth Streets


Leased School Lots, Corner
Market and Fifth Streets.
An agreed case between the Board of
Education and certain tenants on land be-
longing to the School Department has
been submitted to the Superior Court for
decision. In 1874 the school lots on the
corner of Market and Fifth streets were
leased for period of twenty years. The
question now involved is whether the i'm
provements made by tenants on the
premises, such as the buildings erected,
etc., belong to the public as school prop
erty or belong to the parties who leased
the land.
Since the termination of the twenty
years lease, the lessees have been renting
from month to month at the same rental
that was paid during the last five years Of
the lease. None of the buildings erected
have been purchased by the City, and no
attempt has been made to purchase or
pay for them.
