brief speeches deplored what had hap
pened and heartily Endorsed the sugges-
ton of the president. 1t was decided to
keep the expert accountant at work on the
books until the full amount of Dingle's
shortage is discovered when that
amount will be placed in the hands of the
treasurer by the board of directors out of
their own pockets.
While the embezzlement of the funds is
regarded by the directors as a most un-
happy affair the association will in no way
suffer, for the prompt action of the board
will settle everything. 1t is not believed
that the shortage will be more than $3.50.
The cause of Dingle's downfall is not
known. He is about 35 years of age and
comes from Washington. While in Seattle
he held a position OF court shorthand
reporter and he held similar positions in
several large law firms there. He came to
this City with the very best OF recon-
mendations from Judges and lawyers.
A while after reaching San Francisco he
secured the position of assistant secretary
to the Manufacturers and Producers Asso-
citation, and although his books were tx
amined several times his accounts were
found to be all right until within the last
week.
1t was not known that he was given to
drinking, gambling or any of the vices
that usually cause the downfall of young
men who hold responsible positions.
Some time ago he and his wife were
divorced and he was given the custody OF
the boy. While in the association he was
trusted by all and in the absence of
Secretary Mead he had full charge of the
books and the handling of all of the cash

ALONG SEVENTH AVENUE.
Improvements on the South Side
of Golden Gate
Park.
An Offensive Pond of Stagnant Water
Discovered Between the
Sand Hills.

The work of improvement on the out
lying sections of the City is not alone
confined to Richmond and the Potrero.
On the south side of Golden Gate Park
the work is being pushed with deter
mination that will in the course of a few
years give to the people ore of the love-
liest drives 10 be found on the whole
peninsula. 1t will be from the park out
by the Almshouse to Ingleside racecourse
and Ocean View road, which leads out to
the Pacific Ocean.
This pleasant roadway starts at 1 street
where the Olympic building stands, and
continues on Seventh avenue until it
m Gets the Ingleside road.
In order. however, to make this what it
is intended to be large amount of grad
ing is being done on that line by Captain
John Tuttle, who has force of 100 horses
and about go men at work removing sand
hills on the line over which this boulevard
will eventually run.
Up to date over 5000 cubic yards of
sand have been removed from the street
line and on the properties of the Spring
Valley Water Company. Messrs. Sweeney
Connolley, Hanson and Mayor Sutro.
This shifting of sand hills leaves the lot
with frontage of $50 feet on L street, the
property of the City, which is designated
as school property, high and dry.
Ihe Work which IS now being done In
this section has revealed nuisance that
calls for immediate action on the part OF
the Board of Health. 1t is pond of stag
nant water, lying hidden between the
sand hills, and containing the sewerage
from the Almshouse, which has been per-
mitted to remain there for years through
either an oversight or gross careessness
on the part of some one who should know
where this refuse has been permitted to
lodge.
This offensive collection of filth has re-
manned so long that a dirty green scum
an inch in thickness has settled on it's
surface. This scum is occasionally dis
turbed by boys from the City, who, hav-
ing discovered it. go in swimming in its
offensive waters.
Some years ago Thomas u. Sweeney in
voked the aid of the law and caused a con-
tinuatlon of the Aimshouse sewer 70 be
run as far as Twentieth avenue. but the
old. sewer, which still empties into this of
fensive pond, remains open, thus permit
ting the overflow to lodge there as a men,

residents, but of the people who traverse

On the line of this improvement the

ready to put down an eight-inch sewer

water to the park, as also 20 the residents

SOME NEW ATTRACTIONS
Manager Bowler Tells of the
Talent He Will
Have.
Alexander Salvini to Appear in
New and Romantic
Plays

Manager Al Bouvier of the Baldwin
The alter has returned here after several
weeks absence in the East. While absent
Mr.. Bowler made ARRANGEMENTS for the
appearance of large number of frst-class
attractions at the Baldwin and California
theaters for the ensuing season.
He also interested himself a good deal
in studying the present political situation.
He met Mr.. Hanna and had quite talk
with him. Mr.. Bowler says Mr.. Hanna
impressed him as an exceedingly able
man, and he thinks there will be no doubt
about McKinley's success. In Mr..
Bouvier's opinion the fight will be won by
an overwhelming majority.
In the theatrical line New York is very
dull. There were almost no attractions
on the boards when Mr.. Bouvier was
there. In regard to the attractions here,
Mr.. Bowler says that the first thing after
the "Gay Parisians" and madame Sans
Gene will be the Prisoner OF Zenda."
1t will be the first presentation of this
play here, and is expected to cause little
less than a sensation. Mr.. Hackett will
be in the title role, and there will be
throughout the same cast as at the
Lyceum Theater. Mr.. Hackett make. an
ideal hero for the fitness of the role.
Mr.. Bouvier gave details of other attrac
! tions to come, saying:

plays and Julia Marlowe in several of bel
