and crime that will bring disastrous harvest
in a few years.
The cornerstone was laid this week Of the
new fourteen-story Merchants Exchange build
ing at California and Leidesdorff SITS, which Is
to cost 50 100000. President William Babcock
laid the cornerstone and in his speech reviewed
the business history of the State and city. Ad-
dresses were also made by Horace Davis who
was the first president Of the Produce Exchange,
In 1867, and by George w. AIcMear, who first
presided over the Merchants Exchange.
Ali the large downtown restaurants. which
have been closed for over week. are now open
again, and the difficulties with the cooks and
walters unions have been adjusted. The unions
claim the right to insist upon the employment
Of union men and to have the employers sign
contracts to that effect 1t a foolish lockout
on the part of the proprletors. for there was no
general closing. and the unions gained their
point. The proprietors Of two large restaurants,
however, have cut loose entirely from the Res
taurant Keepers Association. and have an
nounced that hereafter they will pay no atten-
ton to the unions. but will hire any one they
please.
Among the deaths of the week were those Of
Alanson H. Phelps, who came here from New
York in 1853, and who had been prominent in
business life. and of Barclay ]. Smith, for more
than twenty years one Of the leaders in the re-

ON THE PACIFIC COAST.
Increase of Racetrack Gambling
Restaurant Hen Lose Labor Fight.

San Francisco, Dec 1S.-The exposure of the
thefts of Secretary William A BIcKowen OF the
University of California, which will amount to
more than 100000, reveals another story OF
crime and disgrace due to racetrack gambling.
McKOwen had charge of special funds Of the
university. such as scholarships and gifts of
private persons for endowments of professor
ships. BY a loose method of bookkeeping there
was no check on him. and he had been stealing
small sums for seven years. Lately he had
grown desperate and began to plunge heavily on
the racetrack, betting as much as 500 on
single race On Thanksgiving Day he won
$1,000, but he generally lost, and exposure came
when he paid bookmaker with check drawn
by Mrs. Hearst for university scholarships,
What makes McKowen's offence worse is that
the losses through his dishonesty will fall on
students who have won scholarships and who
counted on the income from these 10 complete
their education, Unless the givers of these
funds will make losses good the scholars will be
robbed of their maintenance just when they
most need the money.
McKowen's downfall calls renewed attention
to the great increase of racetrack gambling in
the last two years. Formerly pOOlrooms were
suppressed and one could only bet at the track,
but within the last year every saloon and
every little cigar stand has become a poolroom
where bets of even 81 are accepted. The result
is that office boys and petty clerks risk the
races their small wages and the money they
can piIfer, and the sheets giving entries and
tips, which posted up at all these places, are
surrounded by crowds every evening, and the
constant temptation to petty betting, together
with slot machines, is making gamblers of the
younger generation and sowing seeds of wi

the sound of the human voice singing

Food That Put Him Right.

It is easy to correct the bad effect of
wrong eating if one will give 1t little
thought. Scientific food is just as
pleasant to the palate, and in the case
of Grape-Nuts, is more delicious than
improper food and it makes a world
of difference in health and spirits.
''Some three months ago" writes Mr..
z. L. Saunders of Boston, Mass, II
suffered terribly with Indigestion; all
kinds of food distressed me; sometimes
I had a cling of suffocation about the
heart especially at night. My sleep
was broken and I lost flesh rapidly.
I commenced using Grape-Nuts and
the relief from Indigestion was almost
immediate, and in short time entirely
disappeared; my heart resumed its nor
NAL condition and I attribute the cure
entirely to Grape-Nuts.
A well-knoWn lawyer of this city told
me that he suffered from excessive
nervousness and before entering the
courtroom to try case was obliged to
resort to stimulants. 1 urged him to try
Grape-Nuts which he did with almost
marvellous results; he not only gained
flesh, but the nervousness left and his
former strength ana commence re-
turned.
am convinced that Grape-Nuts
gives strength to the body and vigor
to the brain. It is worthy of the high
est praise and I will cheerfully answer
all letters seeking information in regard
to the food" Remember Grape-Nuts
food is most emphatically not med-
Gated food in any sense Of the term; it
Is made OF wheat and barley by scien-
tific processes and the only reason it
helps cure people is that they quit i'm
proper food and take a food in which
the strong brain and nerve building
elements of Natures grains are pre-
served and presented to the digestive
machinery in a form that can be quick
ly and surely digest3d.

WOMEN OF INFINITE TACT.

Madame Paderewski, who was Mad
anne Gorski before she welded the
fiaxen-haired Polish pianist and COM
poser, is a beautiful woman and what
she lacks in physical charm she sup
plies in intelligence and in tact. 1t was
she who closed the dying eyes of the in
valid son of the great pianist, and her
tender ministrations at that bedside
are said to have won her place in the
heart of the pianist, says the Chicago
Inter Ocean. PadereWski is devoted to
his wife, who has no ambition to shine
in society, her chief charm being a
sweet simplicity although her teas
while she was in New York were large
ly attended and very popular. She is,
of course, passionately fond of music
and her favorite flower is the violet, a
blossom that typities her own charac-
teristics.
