The rural South would not be crying
for Immigration If this disturbing drift
towards tina cities could be checked.
There would be no scarcity Of fear on Q =

IL the men who exc out a miserable and
often dishonorahle existence In the
cities, were willing to make an honest
livelihood In the country BY the hcalthful
sweat OF their brows.

STILL HEARING
FLOOD PLANS
River Commission Engineers
Spend a Long Session in
Listening to Testimony

The commission of engineers of the
River and Drainage Association was
again in session at the Flood building
yesterday morning. A. Boschke, for
merly assistant engineer under State
Engineer Halls administration, sub
mitted plans for controlling the flood
waters of the Sacramento and Old riv-
ers. He maintained that by cutting a
canal at Coles Bend and diverting the
surplus water through the basin to the
west of the Sacramento the flooding
of lands in the vicinity of Grand Island
would be prevented.
w. S. Smith, land owner at Grand
Island, occupied the rest of the morn
ing explaining the conditions on Old
River and Steamboat Slough. Smith
advocated a canal cut from the Sacra-
mento River. below where the Old river
ends, through the Montezuma Hills to
Suisun Bay to accommodate the over
flow. He did not think that it would
be expensive. as the cut would not have
to be very deep to accommodate the
surplus water. This work he thought,
should be paid for by the State.
In answer to Major Dabneys ques-
ton as to whether the landowners on
Old River would object to water be-
ing carried away from them by open
ing uD Steamboat Slough, Smith
thought they would not. He maintained
that Old River was the legitimate con-
tinuation of the Sacramento and that
by the constant wash from river steam
ers the point of land at the mouth of
Steamboat Slough had been worn away
and the sand had piled uo at the
mouth, blocking the channel He
thought, however. that the flow through
Georgiana Slough should be cut off.
The levees raised to keep back the
floods from Grand Island. he said.
were constructed of sand, and to pre-
vent the wind from blowing them away
a rather costly process of oiling them
was adopted. Grasses have been
planted on the levees and these, it is
hoped, will in time do away with the
necessity for oiling.
William Muir submitted a paper to
the commission, but it was not read
at the meeting. The hearing goes on
to-day at 10 o'clock and the session
will be continued for several days.

PARK COMMISSIONERS EARL
CUMMINGS GETS TO WORK
Will Exercise His Artistic Taste on
Design for an Official Seal for
the Board.


Design for an Official Seal for
the Board.
Earl Cummings, the newly appoint
ed member of the Park Commission,
met with the board yesterday in the
office of Commissioner r. II. Lloyd.
His introduction was in the matter of
new park seal. The design chosen
by the board was a representation of
the Claus Spreckels grand music
stand. Mr.. Cummings was asked to
exercise his artistic tastes on the pic
ture.
A communication was received from
Supervisor Fay calling the attention
of the Board of Park Commissioners
to the city and county ordinance re-
lating to keeping the ocean beach part
of the park clear of rubbish and gam
blers. The sanitary machinery of the
commission will be put to work i'm
mediately.
The board decided not to open the
approach of Forty-ninth street to the
park until that thoroughfare has been
paved. The Board of Fire Commits
sioners was rendered a vote of thanks
for 200 feet of condemned hose. While
this hose is too weak for the great
pressure of fire work it can be used
in the park for years. Many rare ar
ticles were given to the museum.
Commissioner Lloyd spoke of the
inscription to be cut on the new stone
gateway at the Haight-street entrance
and mentioned that all he could save
from the wreck of the McCauley lit
igation for this gateway was $4,000.
when Mrs. William A McCauIey
four years ago." said Mr.. Lloyd, lin
her will left the residue of her estate
for this purpose she fondly thought
that Golden Gate Park would get a
$4,000 entrance, but after the prop
erty had weathered the Superior and
Supreme courts there was just $4,000"
Il can't say what lawyer got the
lost COIN" said Mr.. Lloyd In reply to
a question of one of his brother Com
missioners.

GETS LEASE ON LIFE.
Supposed Murderer Of the Humans at
Muscatine Escapes.


Muscatine Escapes.
Muscatine, July 25.-Daniel Orman
Williams, supposed to have been the
murderer of John Humans and his wife
of near Muscatine in August two years
ago, and who was to have been hanged
Saturday at Dalles, Oregon, received a
stay of execution pending an appeal to
the supreme court. Williams had been
convicted of the murder of Mrs. Mes
bit and her daughters in Oregon.
Mrs. Nesbit and her daughter entered
a homestead claim about two years
ago and Williams appeared there about
that time and soon formed the acquain-
lance of the women. One night the
three drove away into the country in
a livery rig and the women were not
again seen. Williams was arrested and
convicted. If he does not secure new
trial from the supreme court new
date for his execution will be set.
Williams is connected with the MUIR
der of the Humans, through the fact
that they are known to have been ac-
quainted with some man by that name.
Later Williams wrote to them from
Burlington. Iowa, thus showing that he
was in this part of the country shortly
after the murder of the Humans
The Humans were shell gatherers
who lived in an isolated cabin about
four miles from Musoatine. Their
heads were crushed by blunt instru-
ment Their bodies were not discovered
for day or two.
