AT THE PARK.
The Storm Did Not Do Any Damage.
The Canal Being Torn

Down.
"The storm of the past few days" said
Superintendent McLaren of Golden Gate
Park yesterday, "did but very little dam
age, in fact less than has been done by
storms in years. It washed the dust off
the trees, however. Strawberry Hill stood
it well and the water that washed down its
sides escaped through sewer under the
lake"
The superintendent explained that
Strawberry Hill is composed of red rock
and provisions were made to prevent the
ralnwater that in winter washed down its
sides from entering the lake. The water
he said is so deeply colored that if it en-
tered the lake it would redden it to such a
degree that for weeks it would look like
the Red Sea Ill miniature, and it was for
this reason that drains were built under
the foundation of the lake,
some OF the roads off the main ones were
slightly cut up, but these can be repaired
with few carloads of soil.
Yesterday the full force of men were at
work at the site of the new music con-
course. The trees that were growing in
the grand court of the Midwinter Fair are

ing removed there will be planted shade

Although Mrs. Collins writing has
always been labor of love- yet such inces-
SAINT mental exertion could not fail to have
its effect on her nervous system.
At one time she found herself tired out
and weak from her uninterrupted work;
she became nervous and incapable of work;
she even saw nervous prostration staring
her In the face. The general toning up
that her system needed so badly she found
IN Paine's celery compound. To-day she
is perfectly well and strong again, busy as
ever with her brain and pen, and grateful
to Palnes celery compound for the timely
help when failure and trouble and despair
seemed about to close round her and shut
her of from everything that was dear.

Paine's celery compound is found to best
supply the great need of studious, seden-
tary people. Its extensive use by brain
workers, both men and women, suffering
from sleeplessness, indigestion or other
effects of deficient nerve force, shows its
ability to feed tired, emaciated, nervous
tissues. Nothing else has ever possessed
anything like the power of Paine's celery
compound to restore a healthy nervous
tone to the entire body, and to thoroughly
cleanse the blood. School teachers. pro

work, is excessive, find renewed strength.

A. J. SMITH EXONERATED,
It Was a Case of Two Men Hav.
ing the Same Name and Both
Having Claims.
The Accused Showed That He Had Done
His Utmost to Find Out Why the
Draft Was Sent,

The peculiar coincidence of two meI
having the same name and both havins
claims against the Government was
cause of a very unpleasant experience fol
one Of them; but. fortunately, the matter
ended in complete exoneration of him
yesterday.
On Friday confidential employe of the
| Treasury Department, A. J. Smith by
name, was arrested on complaint Of
Cashier Thomas P. Burns of the United
States Sub-treasury for having obtained
SIS 70 on a warrant which was really in
tended for another A. j. Smith. The
other A. J Smith had been a dealer in
LIQUORS and cigars, and having given ur
his business before the time his internal
revenue licenses expired he was entitled
to some rebate for the stamps be had left
| over. This rebate was sent by the Treas
| ury Department, but it fell into the hands
of the first mentioned A. J. Smith, and as
this particular A. j. Smith had claims
against the Government for services rem
dered to both the internal revenue and
customs divisions he supposed the money
was for him and cashed the piece of paper
as matter of course.
a. j. Smith, the accused, had done some
work in the line of securing evidence in
connection with the Emerald gang OF
smugglers, and he naturally supposed the
check was part of his com pensation.
The Government, according to his state
ment, made him special emyloye for
several months. He had also secured in
formation in reference to some smuggled
opium, silks and cigars which came on the
steamer Colon, and he also had a claim
against Chinese Inspector NJ. B. Hereley
of Chicago for $50 for services in securing
evidence regarding the circulation OF
fraudulent Chinese certificates in China
town.
The treasury draft, when it was received,
was duly indorsed by Smith, the special
employee. Subsequently the right Smith
appeared at the sub-treasury and made
inquiry as to why warrant intended for
him mad been utilized by a person to whom
1t did not belong. There it was. however,
in Mr.. Burns pile of papers, with the
name ga. J. Smith on its back.
Mr.. Burns called to account the Smith
who got the money and advised him to
make it good. At first Smith, the recip-
lent, thought it best to go and make in
quiries of Deputy Surveyor Samuel 7.
Ruddell and the internal revenue officers,
He had long before written letter of in
qulry TO the Treasury Department and
the answer was such that he thought the
cluded to pay back the $1S 70 to Mr.. Burns
and the right Smith got the money.
All this came out before United States
mnissloner Heacock yesterday, and as
the Commissioner was of the opinion that
there was no intent to defraud, he dis
charged the accused. Judge Heacock
thought Smith had gone very much out of
his Is way to ascertain the true status of the
affair, considering the circumstances. and
had done more than could be expected.
Mr.. Smith handled his own case, acting
as his own attorney.

Famous Novelist Recovered From
