IONGSHOREMEN WIN.

The Longshoremen's union won out in
a little trouble with a wild boat" at the
limestone book at the foot Of ToWer ave-
nue. Tuesday.
The boat, the J. T. Ford, loaded with
limestone, tied up at the dock and crew
of non-union men, among which there
were few union men, engaged to ua-
load it at 30 cents an hour.
The men finally objected to the price
and demanded 40 cents. The boss held
out some time, but finally agreed to pay
40 cents for good men.
About o'clock Tuesday night several
more non-union were sent down in the
hold to work at 40 cents an hour, where
upon all the union men were ordered out
and the foreman was told to put in a
union crew or the boat would not be
worked. He acceeded to the demand
made and the union men were drawn up
to one side and furnished with a ticket
emitting them to work on the boat.

SEWER COMMISSION
MAY BE RECREATED
MAYOR PHELAN AT WORK ON
A NEW SCHEME.

Mayor Phelan has set about repairing
the mistake he made in prevailing upon
the Board of Supervisors to create a
Sewer Commission as preliminary to
the proposed bond issue for the constrIc-
tion Of a sewer system.
A week ago it was discovered by the
Auditor that the statutes do not empower
the Board of Supervisors to create either
a board or commission for any purpose.
but, on the contrary, gives it the right
to appoint either an architect or an en-
gineer to superintend any public work
The Mayor<denied the Auditors interpre-
tation OF the law at first, but after a
lengthy consultation and a study of the
statutes agreed with him. The Sewer
Commission, as a result was abolished
and only it's expense bills were audited
no back salary being paid.
Yesterday the Mayor submitted to the
Auditor the drafts of two resolutions and
asked him which of the two was satisfac-
tory to him. One of them provided for
the appointment of c. Z. Grunsky. one of
the erstwhile commission, as chief engi-
neer, at salary of $4,000, and bestowed
upon him the right to employ two assist
ants at the same wage. 1t also allowed
5000 for any expense that might accrue.
The second simply appointed c. E. Grtn-
sky engineer and allowed him 500 900 for
expenses. 1t said nothing of assistants
whatever.
Auditor Wells is inclined to favor the
second resolution, as being more nearly
within the law. but he will submit both
to General Dickinson his attorney. before
rendering any decision.

HOW GRAPE-NUTS FOOD
is CONSTRUCTED.

Grape Nuts food is made by taking
the portions of Barley and Wheat con-
tanning the nutritive elements, sub
Jecting the different parts to different
forms Of treatment, and finally blend
ing them in the proper proportions.
When ready for the market it is In
the form of small granules from the
size Of a pin head TO two or three
times that size. These pieces glisten
when held to the light, showing the
grape sugar crystallized and deposited
on each granule. This grape sugar is
one of the most nutritive articles of
food known, and is produced and
evolved from the starchy part OF the
grains while in process Of manufac-
ture.
No Cane or Beet Sugar is used in
making Grape-Nuts
The flavor is very delicate sweet
and the food itself is crisp and deli
cious.
Being fully cooked at the factory
no preparation is required. but it is
ready to be served instantly with a.
little cream or milk, either hot or cold
A marked increase in mental
strength Is found after 10 days use Of
Grape Nuts.
The food contains elements which
nature uses to rebuild the cellular
tissue of the brain
All first-class grocers sell Grape
Nuts at 10 cents per package.

EILIPINOS VIII
APPEAR TONIGHT

THE Filipino actors at the Mechanics
Pavilion held a rehearsal yesterday
afternoon in order to get themselves
in trim for the opening of their show
at the Pavilion this evening The tumb-
lers tumbled, the band played its best
and every one III the company took turn
at his or her speciality to overcome any
awkwa ardness the long journey from home
might have caused.
There are sixty-five Filipinos in the
company, forty-six of whom are trained
performers or musicians. They came in
some days ago on the Leelanaw to be on
hand for the opening of the Mechanics
Fair, in which they will appear, but they
dislike to wait so long before showing the
public what they can do, so it was ar
ranged to have them give exhibitions for
the remainder Of this week commencing
tonight. They will also appear in the
benefit performance in aid of the recep
ton fund TO be given in the Alhambra.
Every one in the company is native
Filipino.
The attractions which are expected to
arouse the greatest interest are Francisco
Luna. the Filipino Tod Sloan; Emilio
de la Cruz, the strong man, and Eslaba
Muyot, the little acrobat. Tod Sloan"
is years old He will ride in the athletic
exhibition The strong man is but 10.
Senorita Eslaba is not much older, and
she is just as interesting. She can turn
somersaults by the half dozen and she
can tie herself almost into a bow-knot
without the least trouble.
The company is the hrSt OF its kind to
come to this country. The members are
all good actors and aside from that they
have the distinction of being the first OF
their race to appear in public here.
