From now on the Red Cross base of sum-

all stores will now be shipped instead of
New York, and it will probably be part of
the service of the steamer bearing the as.
sociation's name to steam to and fro he.
tween this base and Cuba for the purpose
of transporting all sorts of Red Cross sun
plies.
The advantage of Tampa over New York
as base Is readily apparent, since it Is ut
least 1000 miles nearer the scene of the
coming bloody contest than this CITY.
Tampa is also within almost Immediate
reach of Key West and Jacksonville.
Although IL is highly probable that more
serious demands for Red Cross attention
will soon be- put forth from Cuba than
from Camp Alger Chickamauga. Tampa

The San Pedro and Mateo street. car fran
chises are in default. They were granted in
May, 1897, and according to the terms of
the contracts entered into between the city
and the grantees the roads were to have
been completed by q certain date. It is
now impossible for the grantees to comply
with the terms of the contracts and they
therefore ask the city council for an exten-
sion of one year in which to complete the
lines.
These franchises were granted at time
Just previous to the death of the old and
very liberal law relative to franchises. The
San Pedro street grant was made to John
G. Lynch and was afterward assigned to and
acquired by John d. Bicknell, who is now
the petitioner for the extension of time.
The San Pedro street line, as everybody
knows, has been in operation for some
time, but does not extend over all the ter
ritory which the builders agreed to cover
under the terms of the grant. The petition
er states that 1t is the intention to complete
it within the time requested as an extension.

INFLUENCES FOR GOOD
Some Simple Things That Have ar
Elevating Tendency

The regenerating influence of silk hat
il well known. 1t calls inevitable for a
frock coat and an umbrella, which are badges
Of respectability, and not only lead their
possessor to associate with others similarly
equipped, but impel him to avoid disrepu-
table folks, who hold such attire in derision.
Again, the ownership of a silk hat, frock
coat and an umbrella, all at one and the
same time, insensibly promotes habits of
neatness and precision, and, in brief, a
thorough reformation is eventually effected,
from the groundsup. All this, as before OBJ
served, is well known, but Chicago man
has discovered that an elevator is an almost
equally potent moral agent.
For years." he said, Il never thought of
going to bed before o'clock, and the habit
OF idling away thcearly night became almost
q second nature. Naturally, 1t led to my
squandering a great deal of money and

building that has an elevator which stops at

FOR COLLECTOR OF PORT
Several Men Who Would Like to Eli
.6r. Francisco's Place

Their are number of candidates for the
place Of collector of the port, left vacant
by the death Of A. w. Francisco. Probably
the most conspicuous at present. are the
ones who were defeated by Mr.. Francisco
when he was appointed. Capt Cross of
this city and j. J. Garlic of Santa Monica.
Both OF these gentlemen had high and
numerous Endorsements and are likely to
renew their contest now that the office is
again vacant, as it is considered that one or
the other would have gotten the place if
it had not gone as it did
others who are mentioned as likely to
make race for the place are Tom Lewis,
who was candidate for the United States
marshalship, and Charles T. Par
sons, now OF the city treasurer's office. Mr..
Parsons is said to have strong backing and
it is said that there are a number of others
who are making still hunt for the position.
The friends of Mr.. Francisco, il Is under.
stood, are making an effort to have the
president appoint A. N. Francisco, the eld-
est son of the dead collector, to fiji out the
term OF his father, and this seems to appeal
to large portion of those whose influence
Is expected to have more or less to do with
the appointment
The name of John F. Francis has been
mentioned for the place. but how much this
means beyond the desire of his countless
friends to see some recognition given to
him is not known. If he is q candidate he
certainly would have any easy campaign of
u to make.

English counties-a holiday treat to which
he is much attached, his companions being
his sister and Lord and Lady Loudoun.
One day quite recently the party stopped in

and had to wait until several other people
were served. He always makes travelling
an occasion of observing the working Of
rural offices, and he noticed with pain that
the. young lady in charge was very cross
and snappish, especially to poor old wo-
man. When his turn came he handed in his
telegram signed Norfolk" The operator
