PACIFIC COAST DEFENSE.
General Plan For Fortifying San
Francisco Harbor.

Out of the millions which will go for
coast defenses under the present mill
tary appropriation bill, says the Chron-
iicle, the work about San Francisco har-
Dor promises to fare better than that
of any other on the Pacific Coast,
though all are taken care of, and ia
vorably with those in any part of the
country. While no distinct plans have
yet been made by the engineer Off
Gals, the work of emplacements will
receive the first consideration; taking
in Notifications on both sides of the
Golden Gate
Colonel Suter has at his command
funds for the preparation of sites for
the heavy ordnance ready for the Pre-
sidio side, and will, during the year,
advance his work on the Lime Point
side of the bay.
AS it is now, the ordnance and gun
carriage work is behind any other
branch of the coast defense depart
ment. Captain Black, who, as assist
ant to General Wilson, is in immediate
charge of this branch of the engineers
work, says this is because of waiting
on the gun and carriage makers
Were it possible to get the guns and
the improved type of disappearing car
riages as fast as the foundations for
them could be prepared, the fortifica-
tions about the entrance to the bay of
San Francisco would be speedily COM
pleted.
AS the present armament of San
Francisco Notifications stand, not more
than 10 per cent of the shore batter
les are in position. When the Preside
and Lime Point defenses are COM
pleted in conjunction with the bat
terry on the top of Point Lobos and its
companion on the high ground above
Point Bonita, this will constitute the
first line of defense.
The entire scheme of coast defense
depends as much upon the ignorance
of an enmey in regard to what he will
meet as upon the effectiveness of the
armament. 1t is for this reason that
so much of the torpedo defenses of a
harbor is made open in the immedi-
ate face of an attack. In the San Fran
cisco outer bay, between the Heads and
covering the space inside the bar and
into the Golden Gate, torpedoes will be
placed according to a scheme compre-
hensive enough to prevent a yacht
from escaping, and yet it is safe TO say
that the presence of an enemy off the
coast, even granting that all the tor
pedoes and mines had been placed,
would be the signal for a display OF
greater activity on the part of the COM
mandant than has been witnessed in
any other feature of defense.

MONEY TO BURN
Gold Certificates Received
at Finance Office.
Beautiful Designs on the New Is
sue-May Keep Gold in
the Country.

The last of the order for gold Ger
tificates of the different denominations
from So to $500 was received by the
Minister of Finance yesterday. Several
thousand dollars worth of the new
silver certificates have been put in cir
culation, but the entire issue of gold
notes remains intact.
The notes are the same in size as
those now in use. They are orange in
color, and the engraving on them is
equal in workmanship to notes issued
by the United States Government.
The So note has for a centerpiece a
handsome engraving of the Executive
building. To the left of this is port
raft of woman, and on the right the
head of steer. These are in medal
lions and are models of the engravers'
art.
The $40 certificate has view of a
cane field for the center, showing the
wagons loaded with cane and men at
work. To the left is a picture of the
Australia sailing into port. On the
right is a portrait in profile of the
Goddess of Liberty.
The $40 note shows picture OF the
cane wagons discharging at the door of
mill A full length view of the Cod
dess of Liberty on the left and picture
of horses head ON the right
The $50 note has ranch picture for
the centerpiece, showing cowboys herd
ing cattle. On the left is a medallion
in which is the head of a woman, and
the right tropical scene.
The 500 note has for a centerpiece a
railway station, showing a train of
cars arriving. On the left is a medal
lion, containing portraits of two wo-
men having wreaths on their heads
To the right is picture of a running
horse, also in medallion. The reverse
side of the notes is the same on
each, the great seal forming the center
piece
The s. silver certificate is the only
piece having engravings which are pc
culiarly Hawaiian. The medallion on
the left holds picture of Moanalua,
showing palm and cocoanuts The
Judiciary building forms the center
piece and a full-length portrait of an
aged Hawaiian on the right.
These gold certificates represent gold
coin deposited in the Treasury, and it
is hoped by their being put in circula-
tion here that less gold will leave the
country.

ton, the capital. The tourney attracted
country. The Graphic newspaper gives
the event much space, with fine en-
cravings.
At Wellington the ground was wet
and track slow, but the attendance ran
into the thousands, and the greatest
enthusiasm was manifested. There was
keen rivalry between the town teams,
and every effort was made to weight
and pocket" the Auckland pair.
The Wellington track is a new one,
which has the remarkable feature of
having been first built and then meas
ured. 1t takes little more than "three
times around to make a mile. There
are four "straights'' and four raised
turns"
Dexter started in quite number of
events-in some to win and others to
pace Reynolds.
There were 16 starters in the five
mile After about a mile and half 10
of the scorchers piled up. Nearly all
We're hurt-severaI so seriously that
they will never compete again. One
had collar-bone broken. another an
arm and one poor chap had his nose
ripped open like an old tire. Reynolds
was in this spill and his wheel was
wrecked.
Honolulu's boy and the other five
went on at race pace to the end of the
fourth mile Then they made a stack
of themselves. Dexter pulled out his
machine and struck out followed by
two others. He let them pace him till
just the eighth. then spurted and won
handily.
Following New Zealand amateur
sporting practices and precedents, the
judges declared this race off because
so few of the starters were able to
finish" Ruby found that he had won
with six spokes out of his front wheel.
a toe clip gone, saddle twisted and
handles fairly corkscrewed.
In the 10-mile race Dexter and Rey-
nolds coIlided, but Reynolds won. best
ing the indicated Jones from Christ
church In this fall Ruby had knee
badly bruised, and was kept in hos
pital till a couple of hours before the
call for the half-mile race This was
in heats, with the final. and all ac-
counts agree that Dexter clearly dem
onsuated his superiority at the dis
lance. being especially brilliant in his
finishes. coming down to the tape like
a demon" making the half-mile in
1:06.
The bad knee kept Ruby from trying
for anything more after getting the
coveted prize of the half-mile cham
pionship. He was game enough to go
in and see Reynolds home first in the
25-mile race.
Jim" Crozier, brother of David and
Charles, is now a wheel racer, and has
taken several frsts and seconds.
Dexter & Crozier are doing very well
in business. having secured the Ram
bier agency with tip-top contracts.
They have improved their repair de-
partment. and are doing lots of work.
Their regular wheel stock is 80 ma
chimes for sale and others for livery.
In letters to relatives and friends the
boys" tell of liking life down there.
