BABIES DAY AT The CIRCUS,
Hundreds of youngsters Spend n Happy
Day-That NLisman cement Story

Hundreds of Youngsters Spend a Happy
Day-That Encouragement Story.
A prattling audience OF babies enjoyed a
happy day under the big tent at Eighth
and Harrison streets yesterday afternoon.
Their merry shouting at the antics of the
clowns augmented the pleasure of the older
people who event to the circus just to take
care of the children" Most of the little ones
under the canvas were the guests OF Paul
Blume, press agent, and Walter Main, propri-
etor OF the big show. All the children from the
Lux, Potter and Fuller Shatuck kindergar-
tens were present az half a hundred queued
Chinese youngsters from one of the mission
schools sat in awe during the performance. 1t
was the first circus of the Chinese children,
and they were pleased beyond measure. All
the b bies were well cared for by the manage
ment of the circus and returned to their
homes contented.
Paul Blume is greatly ineensed over a re-
port published in the Examiner charging
greed and mlsmanagement on the part OF the
CT Gus people. 1.-The report that through mis-
management many disgracefu scenes were
enacted and children abused Thursday after
noon is all absolute falsehoOd, he said. 81
believe the teachers OF many schools having
IN charge scores of lite ones, who, through
the courtesy of the management, have been
able to see the circus free of charge, can tes-
tifv TO the truth or falsehood of the report,
and am confident that none will have aught
10 say against the treatment they received.
The truth ofthe matter IS that greed on the
part OF the management ol the paper that
saw fit 10 pub lsh the s"urgllous article
prompted its publics tion. For The simple res-
son that was una bic to accede to all their de-
mauds for tickets and rows OF boxes on
crowded nights l presume they thought
little roast was in order, but l
hing by so doing, and knowing the paper
as do, and knowing that the people of this
City know ii as well as do, hardly think the
publication of the false article will seriously

Mayor Phelan Says That Consideration O. the

To Mrs. J. r. Martini Chairman Of the Committee ON

MADAM In reply to your favor of August g. in which you
say chairman of the committee Of the California State

disposed to press consideration of that matter at this time
believing that there important work for the City to

opinion desire to say:
That the proposed site for the park not in the Mission

Mission entitled to consideration the matter of parks
and squares and they should be acquired at reasonable
prices by the issuance of forty-year bonds.
That account of the pledges made by the Mayor and
the Supervisors to keep down the tax levy this you
wisely conclude is nopportune time to press the consd

Shores of the Pacific.
Ex-Queen Liliuokalani is in town. She
arrived here last night from W Washington,
D. c., and will remain for several weeks al
the California Hotel, where she occupies
a suite of rooms facing on Bush street.
She came accom- panied only by her two
body servants, 1. Heleluhe and his wife
native Hawaiians ard former retajners in
the royal household.
Sam Parker, wealthy Hawaiian coffee
planter, and an adviser of the ex-QueeH,
went up TO Port Costa and there met his
former sovereign and accompanied her to
this City. Colonel George Mactarane,
cham berlain to his late Majesty, King
Kalakaua of Hawaii, met the party at the
Oakland mole, where a closed carriage
was in waiting.
Iuiuokalani declined to be seen or in
tervlewed either on the train or at the
hotel, and she retired early.
She has come here to rest until Congress
shall again convene, when she purposes
TO return to " ashlngton and oppose an
nexation. She likes the climate OF Cali
fornia and enjoys San Francisco.
She will not venture to visit Hawaii, as
her present opposition to annexation

Now,
VIGOROUS PROTEST. B.IYG S.CyED.
Mission Residents Numerously Going
on Record Against the Real
Estate Scheme.

We, the undersigned residents
and real-estate owners in the Mis-
sion district, respectfully and earn
estly protest against the purchase
of the tract of land known as
Squirrel Hollow" offered to the
City for the alleged purpose of a
geological garden, and we do this
for the following reasons:
First-The price asked for the
property is at least four times as
much as it is worth.
Second-The property is totally
unfit for park on account of its
precipitOus, steep and inaccessible
character nor can this be reme-
died by any improvements that
can be made without the eXpendi-

ture of more money than the peO-
pie would permit to be taken from
the treasury. Competent engi-
neerS estimate that an eXpendi.
ture of at least So, 100000 would
be required to convert this rough
gulch into a park, and the expense
of its maintenance would be only
commenced.
Third-Your Honorable Board
is asked to appropriate 100000
to purchase the land. all of which
sum would be wasted; no one be-
ing benefited except those who sell
this worthless property. We re-
spectfully submit that the tax
rate in this City has reached the
extreme limit of endurance, and
to add to this burden for the pur-
pose of enriching a plunderins
ring would be to betray the trust
reposed in you by the people of
this City.
We, therefore, respectfully ask
that you refuse to purchase the
said lands, or any lands, for a
geological park.
