SCARED THE MOTORMAN.
Rural Lass, Climbs Safety Appliance
on a Street Car.

Motormen on the Brownies addition
electric cars have more than their share
of trouble because of the single en-
trance in front, says the Spokane cor
respondent of the Seattle Post Intelli-
gencer." 1t is an unwritten rule that
the passenger hailing the car stand on
the far crossing, and on the right of the
motorman. To close the rear portion a
heavy iron gate is hung on hooks, and
it is no small task TO change 1t when
the car starts on the return journey.
While the muddy season and the agi-
tation for paving We're at their height.
a miss Of IS buxom and rosy-cheeked,
hailed the car going west She was
within three blocks of the Washington
school building, and it was afterward
learned that the school was her des-
tination. Evidently she was on a visit
ing tour, and her general appearance
indicated that she was from the rural
districts.
When the car was hailed she was in
the middle of the block The motor
man stopped the car and waited for the
passenger to come up. He stood for
several minutes and wondered where
that girl had disappeared She was not
IN sight from where he stood. Finally
he glanced to the rear of the car To
his horror he discovered that the big
muscled schOolma'a am from the country
had made up her mind to enter from
the back portion She had discovered
the iron CRATE, but did not propose that
a little obstacle of that sort should pre-
vent her geeting aboard. When the
motorman made dash for the back
there was as pretty exhibition of wrest-
ling with heavy weights as one could
wish to see. Miss Rural had a half Nell
son on that pesky gate and was wrest-
ling it from it's hinges. She had all but
succeeded in her purpose when the gate
got the upper hold and was about to
take a fall out of her. The motorman
frantically clutched the iron and it fell
half way to the ground, and the girl
stepped proudly over, found a footing
on the step and marched to a seat.
Complacently she seated herself and
announced that she desired to be let
off at the Washington school. The other
occupant of the car, lady, city bred,
was convulsed with mirth and half be-
side herself because there was no one
else on board to witness the fun.
The nickel was paid for the three
block ride and the car stopped. With
a toss of her head she descended and
sailed off across the street for the big
building in the triangle with an air
which seemed to say: You may think
[ don't know how to get on these cars,
but 1 am an old hand at the business"
And the motorman muttered as he
turned the lever: Some people never
will learn the front of anything"

The greatest fallacy, therefore, which
the ordinary mind is prone to accept is
the advocacy of the division of water
SO as to prevent increased flood eleva-
ton. IT is true that this will often give
apparent relief and does prevent the
stream from reaching an excessive
hight, but while it is apparently bene-
fetal it is. like the incurable disease that
wastes the human system, eating at the
very vitalS of good drainage. Silently
and unseen, it causes a sitting of the
stream below the outlets, raising the
bed of the main drainway, only to
eventually waste it's energy by spread
ing over a broad eXpanse of valuable
land. It is closing of the great artery
which flows from the heart of the val

resume through the outlets and by
passes of diseased and distorted nature

The Grand Jury went into Judge Sea-
wells court yesterday afternoon and pre-
sented another indictment for EN- bezzle-
ment against DR.. F. II. Stable, ex-super-
intendent of the City and County Hospi-
tai. The paper filed yesterday sets forth
that DR.. Stable appropriated to his own
use carpets purchased by the City for the
hospital.
The investigation of charges against
John W. Foley, clerk of Police Court No.
2 was resumed yesterday afternoon by the
Grand Jury. The witnesses examined
were Officer Dukes and Wong Ting, the
expert of the Chief of Police. The expert
inspected quite a number of bonds, and
found that such alleged sureties as Chang
Chung, Ching Ling. You Chow, Sim On,
Chan Low and All Woh did not exist.
Their names appeared on bail bonds for
the release of offenders. 1t was the iud g
ment of the expert that the bonds were
worthless.
Clerk Foley was on hand when the ses-
sion began, but as the Finance Committee
OF the Board Of Supervisors desired his
presence before that body he was excused
Tor the day by the jury.
The report of the Grand Jury commit
tee on parks, accompanied by the report
of the experts, will be submitted next
Tuesday. The report is ella borate and in
general terms commendatory of the man
agement of Golden Gate PARK.
A detailed statement of all moneys re-
ceived and disbursed by the Park Com
missioners since July !, 1896. is embodied
in the reports of the experts. The report
shows in itemized form for what purpose
the money was expended.

showed the smallest number of fouls, or
violations of rules, one single foul bein g
called only, and this for making progress
with the ball by Wilson of the Business
Mems team. The Ninety sevens played
the prettiest game from illegal" stand
point. Unfortunately for them, they d id
not score any goals either. The Business
Men carried off the victory with % to
points to their credit.
1t was close game when the Athens of
Oakland fought the Rushers of San Fran
cisco. The game was played in the gym
nasium OF the Young Mems Christian
Association on Ellis and Mason streets, of
our City. In the first half it was impossi-
BILE to predict which side would come out
on top. The ball was tossed up many
times to the mouth Of the basket, bnt the
basket did not see N to care much for the
pill and repeatedly refused to swallow it.
Manager Shaw, who did some good work
for the Rushers, became almost supersti-
tious and could not see why the ball did
not do what he wanted it. The Athens
put up splendid game. They made use
of every opportunity and when their OPP
ponents were not close to their sides they
would gain space and try for goal. The
score stood to l in favor of the Athens
from Oakland.
