MEXICAN CHARITY SCHOOLS.

Aristocratic Women Take Active Part
,.9 in Management.
Few people realize the great amount
Of charitable work that is being done in
Mexico City by the Mexican ladies' Of
| high degree, as well as those of other
lnationalities. Chief among the workers
lis Sonora Carmen Romero Ruhio de
Diaz, the first she established chari-
table school for children under a certain
age, and she supports over $50. children
out of her own purse. These unfortu-
nate waits will be given an opportunity
to become self-supporting and decent
people.
There are twenty-six other such
schools in Mexico, all of them the out
come of the desire of the high class to
alleviate the woes of the flotsam and
jetsam of humanity, cast by an evil
fate upon the inhospitable shores Of
cruel adversely,
Among this class of noble charities
must be named the Florence Crittenton
home. Under the guiding hand of Mrs.
Ignacio Sepulveda, the president, it is
fast foregoing to the front as one of the
beneficent charities of Mexico. In this
work she has the support of the highest
Mexican, as well as. the American,
ladies.
| Another admirable charity is the
meeting of the most aristocratic maids
and matrons Of Mexico every Tuesday
afternoon, at the home of the wife of a
foreign minister, to make garments
for dis tribution among the poor. This
most estimable and titled lady gives
the material and the ladies make the
garments. A large amount of we'll
made warm clothing has by this means,
been distributed among the needy class,
| especially the small cl1ildrn.
Another sewing circle, also composed
of the young ladies of the highest Mex
lean society, is, called Las Hernlanas
de los Pobres, and the members meet
once a week to sew for the babies
and small children. In this circle each
member furnishes her own material,
cuts and makes the garments.
1t has been roughly estimated that in
the twenty-seven established private
charity schools in Mexico the number
Of children taken care of given home
and being taught, is something over
5000. This is no inconsiderable number,
and it does not include the government
schools. Mexican Herald. ~.

Wedding boots should be kept in the

any rate, this is the opinion of George
NJ. Arnold Of Delevan Lake, Wis, who
is still wearing the pair that he bought
SO years ago, and he says they are likely
to last him the rest of his lifetime. AS
to the good luck that surrounds the

NO UNSEAWORTHY BOATS
SAIL FROM THIS PORT
Inspector Bulger Replies to Charge
That Unfit Vessels Have Been
Passed for Service.

The United States inspectors of
steam vessels at this port declare that
great injustice has been done them by
the criticisms of an evening paper,
which, taking the disaster on the
General Slocum at New York as a text,
declares that the local inspectors have
been negligent in passing unseaworthy
vessels as fit for service.
Inspector John K. Bulger. speaking
for himself and Inspector Bolles. said
last evening:
Il is charged that at the time OF the Klon-
dixie rush NEARLY all the floating cofhns of the
were allowed by the Inspectors of Hulls and
Boilers to ply their nefarious trade to Alaska -
An honest man will not make an accusat ton
Of that sort without backing it with names.
Let the evening newspaper give us the names
of any unseaworthy vessel that we passed dur
Can it's editors name any such boat passed by
us? If not he should withdraw his general
ization
The facts directly contradict his assertion.
We condemned many vessels. The Professor
Morse, which had been passed by the inspect
ut New Orleans was brought round here
for the Alaskan trade, but condemned her
and her bones now lying over at Oakland.
Not a single accident due to unseaworthiness
occurred on any vessel passed by us either
for the Philippine or for the Alaskan trade
II unfit boats were engaged in the Alaskan
business they did not go from this port. We
have Jurisdiction at Seattle or outside of
San Francisco.
We have steadfastly condemned every boiler
hull that unsound, and we challenge
generalites, but with names of the unfit YES
sells which 1t Is claimed were passed by u.s..

Trnmnet at Fort Point.

A great improvement, of which all naviga-
tors OF the bay and adjacent waters are loud
in their approval, has just been installed and
is designated in the records OF the United
States Lighthouse Department as the Fort
Point Daboll trumpet" The old bell, which
has warned incoming ships Of the dangers
concealed in the waters OF the Golden Gate
and has sounded the death knell of many a
gallant seaman, has been superseded by a
more effective contrivance. The bell VIII not
hereafter be heard except in the clearest
weather and as an auxiliary only.
II has been demonstrated, owing TO certain
atmospheric conditions. that the sound Of a
bell at sea level. especially during the preva-

MIIIKMEN FILE OBJECTIONS
TO DAIRY REGULATIONS
No Agreement With Health Board
Reached Because of Radical
Stand Taken by 1t.

The Supervisors Health Committee
met yesterday for the purpose of hear
ing objections to dairymen to the
rules and regulations which the
Board of Health desires to be incor-
porated into an ordinance for the SAN
itary conduct of dairies. The attorney
for the dairymen said that the confer
ence held with the Board of Health
was not entirely satisfactory and the
changes proposed were too radical.
He asked that the matter be taken up
again with the Board of Health before
final action by the committee.
NJ. Pullman did not think it advis-
able to have another conference, say
ing that no agreement would ever be
reached on some rules that he termed
unreasonable. Tor instance, the
Health Board did not want barley
used for cows food, whereas Pullman
argued experience had taught that
barley was good food. This statement
was corrected, 1t being the use of sour
barley that was reported against.
DR.. Ward, president of the Health
Board, refused to consent to another
meeting and presented the findings of
the conference, saying an agreement
had been reached. The dairymen
claimed there was a misunderstanding,
as the recommendations were too
drastic The recommendations were
taken up seriatim and the objections
of the dairymen were heard. These
related to ventilation, the provision
for window space, the double floors
for barns and the drainage distance.
The discussion on both sides be-
came very lively and DR.. Ward asked
the attorney for the dairymen if he
meant that the Health Board had
been tampering with the rules. The
attorney replied that DR.. Ward could
not put him in that position. Fur
ther hearing of the matter was post
poned until next Wednesday at 10

RECOMMENDS
LOWER GRADE
City Engineer Reports on
the Leveling of Mission
Street at Cortland Avenue
FAVORS NEW ROADWAY
Project Would Leave Undis-
turbed All the Intersect-
ing Thoroughfares East

City Engineer Woodward filed a re-
port yesterday with the Board of Pub
lie Works relative to lowering the grade
of Mission street from Cortland ave-
nue. to Bosworth street The reoprt
says that benefit will result from the
lowering of the grade, but If any
change is made it should be sufficient
to effect considerable reduction in the
gradients. The cuts required at the
various intersections would range from
one foot at ST. Mary's street to seven
teen feet at Highland avenue. The side
streets would have to be cut all the way
from one to. eight feet and the prop
erty fronting thereon would be consid-
erably damaged. The report continues:
Another plan to produce the desired improve
ment would be by means of a street to the
west of and parallel with Mission street, which
could be constructed with the proper gradients
leaving Mission street at its present elevation.
The necessary land could be acquired by pur-
chase or under condemnation proceedings and
as the improvements are not OF great value 1t
would appear that the expenses would not ex-
ceed that of the first proposition. This plan
would, moreover have the great advantage of
leaving undisturbed all streets to the east OF
Mission street. The streets running westerly
from Mission street would be bridged over the
new street.
In this connection It would be well to con-
slider the advsability of raising the grade of
Mission street from Bosworth street to Silver
avenue This is also a most desirable improve
ment and could be accomplished at the same
time at comparatively little additional expense
by using the excavated material in making the
fill.
F. c. Lebenbaum, George O'Brien,
Oscar Mohr and August Hecdman of
the San Francisco Architectural Club
have submitted sketches for the new
safety station at the intersection OF
Market, Powell ami Eddy streets, to
cost $3.50.

Captain Hanson of the barkentine w.
H. Dimond. which arrived yesterday, q
days from Honolulu. reports that June
80. at 1880 a. m. in latitude 37.42 north,
longitude 12452 west, he sighted lot
of wreclIage, and at S:45 p. m. of the
same day, when about fifty-two miles
due west of the Farallones, the Dimond
passed close to the wreck of a vessel
bottom UP. 1t was too dark for those
on the barkentine to ascertain the iden-
tlty of the derelict or to form any con-
clusion as to her size or rig. She
seemed to be from $50 to 200 feet long
and was apparently wooden. There was
too much sea on to admit of any closer
scrutiny.
The Dimond brought 10000 bags of
sugar and other cargo. F. NJ. Rose, w.
J. March and Mrs. W. NJ. Butler and
child came up on the barkentine as
passengers.
While rounding to off Black Point at
11:30 o'clock yesterday morning the Di-
mond lost her starboard anchor and
sixty fathoms of chain. The vessel had
drifted within 100 yards of Alcatraz be-
fore the port anchor held.
There was much speculation yester-
day as to the identity of the derelict
reported by Captain Hanson. The de-
tails he was able to furnish were so
meager and there are so many vessels
off shore at this time that any surmise
would be mere guesswork. Many local
ship-owners Will be anxious until some
thing more is learned of the wreck.
