A Source Of Disease Il not Properly cIeansed
and Frequently Renewed.


hongh apparently lnsignifi-
cant, nothing is more important
in the home or conduces more to
the health and comfort of the
family, than the careful washing
of the dishes and proper care OF
cloths and towels-why, death, in
the form of typhoid germs, has
been known to lurk in an unclean
dishcloth! Therefore, says Med
ical Talk for the Home, when SER
wants are employed they should
be required to wash, scald and
hang them TO dry out IN the sun,
since in the summer time they
will quickly sour. "Any old
thing" is often selected for this
important purpose, even to old
socks, and by housewives who
deem themselves the "pink of
neatness. The writer prefers
porous material, and nothing is
more so than mosquito netting.
Fold the same four or more thick.
nesses and quilt with coarse
thread. Being such inexpensive
goods, q new dishcloth NAV often
be obtained.
Some housewives place dish
cloths and towels in the regular
weekly washing; but this seems
uncleanly to the writer. Would
we not deem 1t very unclean to
use hand towels and underwear
after having been used week.
to wipe ones dishes ? Then why
is it cleanly to throw dish towels
IN with such soiled .hings, and
then wash them together? A sep
arate washing for table linen and
dish towels is by far the better
way. Indeed. to The writer a
large basket of solled clothes,
many OF which contain toul eman-
ations Off not real disease) from
the body, is unpleasant, but doub-
ly so if tablecloths, napkins aud
dlshcloths are i'm bedded therein.
A twme dish mop does very
well for glass and chin aware, but
cannot answer for a quantity of
cooking utensils. Some prefer
wire dishcloth for kettles. T.ae
writer finds the average domes-
tic averse TO Washing the outside
of skillets and kettles, hence,
they see no reason for using
separate dishcIoth. They also
strenuously object to rlnslng said
utensils, Notwithstanding that
they are usually washed after all
of the other dishes.

The educational meeting held

chairman.
The topics for discussion were;
1. Importance of questioning in
class. 2. School mistakes. 3.
System, its value and effect. 4.
What constitutes a good school !?
Some of the features brought out
in these discussion were. that we
should ask suggestives questions
leading the pupils to connect the
present subject with theprevious
one; do not ask direct questions,
but navepupils giveanswersinf in full

UNCER'S CASE
IS IN BALANCE
Jury After Being Out Sew
eral Hours Is Ordered
Locked Up for the Night
ASKS FOR INFORMATION
Calls for Exhibits in Case
and Instructions Issued
by the District Judge

Cress Unger's fate is in the hands of
jury that was locked up last night for
further deliberations on the case of the
Custom house employe who is charged
with embezzling Government money. 1t
looks as if a disagreement were possible.
The jury, after being out four hours,
announced that ii had not agreed and
the order that 1t be locked up for the
night was made by the court
Bert Schlesinger was followed in the
morning by Seth Mann of counsel for the
defendant. Both counsel contended that
IJnger had not committed any crime un-
der the section under which he had been
indicted; that the mere delay in trans
ferring funds from the seizure clerks
room TO the cashier Of the Custom house
did not constitute either larceny or en-
bezzlement.
United States District Attorney Robert
T. Devlin made the closing argument on
behalf of the Government Among other
things he said: "If your verdict is for
aequittal you-then say to every public
official in the State of California you can
steal with impunity because there is no
law to punish you, and no jury will en-
force the law. But on the other hand,
gentlemen, verdict of guilty will clear
up the moral atmosphere of San Francisco
and will be a warning to others to re-
frain from purioining the funds of the
people"
Judge de Haven instructed the jury as
to the siXty-nine counts of the indict
ment, charging as many occasions of
larceny, and explained the distinction be-
tween larceny and embezzlement. He said
that mere delay or neglect to pay over
the funds does not constitute the crime of
embezzlement. He charged the jury fur
ther that the previous good character of
the defendant was factor in the case
and the defendant was entitled to the
benefit of that factor.
The jury retired at half past three in
the afternoon and shortly afterward
asked for the exhibits in the case and also
for the instructions. The exhibits were
sent up, but the instructions had not been
written out by the Shorthand reporter.

WILL BUILD WINDMILL.

1t was announced yesterday that
Samuel G. Murphy. president of the
First National Bank of San Francisco,
was the donor of the $4,000, announced
to the Park Commissioners May IL, for
the purpose of building a Dutch wind
mill In the southwest corner of Golden
Gate Park, to be used in pumping the
water necessary to irrigate that sec
tion.
Attorney Reuben H. Lloyd of the
commission announced the intention of
the philanthropist to make this gift
without giving his name and the Park
Commissioners promptly accepted ii,
but yesterday the fact was made known
to the Commissioners and public that
the donor was no other than President
Samuel g. Murphy of the First National
Bank. The news came in the form of
the money in cash, which was placed
in the hands of the attorney.
Mr.. Murphy is declining in health and
has decided to take trip to Nauheim.
Germany, to recuperate, but before go
ing he made this gift to help beautify
the famous Golden Gate Park, which he
has enjoyed for thirty years. Being
confined within his office the major
part of the time and because his busi-
ness was seclusive, he was accustomed
to spend holidays and mornings riding
in the park. 1t is said that 1T was al
ways his wish to see the spot made
the most beautiful in the world. and.
because water was a necessary factor
in the Identification, he supplied the
funds for the erection of what will be
the largest windmill ever built. The
power generated, as computed by en-
gineers, will be great enough to force
the water from the ocean to the top Of
Strawberry Hill
The coin for the project was put in
the hands of Park Commissioner Lloyd
by the bank president yesterday and
will be used as soon as plans can be
perfected. In the meantime Mr.. Muir
ply, who is now staying at the st.
Francis. will depart for an extended

REGENTS INTERPRET
AN IMPORTANT ACT
Consider Territorial Limit
for the Sale of
Liquor.

Several Of the Regents OF the University of
California expressed their opinion yesterday
regarding the law that went into effect on
Tuesday relative TO the sale OF liquors within
one mile Of the grounds belonging and ad-
Jacent to the University of California
Each one was OF the opinion that the law
does not apply 10 university property outside of
Berkeley. In case IL did Ii would mean almost
q general shutting down of the liquor business
in San francisco.
Judge Charles w Slack thought that the
manifest intent of the law is that Ii apply to
the University OF California only and Regent
j. B. Reinstein said that from the language
Of the act there was doubt OF the Intention
Of the Legislature that the restriction apply
only 10 the university site
Charles e. Shook. attorney for the Board
Of Regents said last night at HE residence In
Oakisnd:
There is no doubt In my mind that 1t
was not the intent that tie 'mile-linit' law
should apply to the Affiliated Colleges or to
the Mark Hopkins Institute Of Art in San
Francisco. The law has been on the statute
books FOR many years applied to the Uni
versity Of California at Berkeley. The new
act only elaborates the old one by including
other State Institutions. but neither the
Affiliated Colleges nor the Art Institute

MONEY Is NOT LOST
TO PACIFIC STATES
Funds Loaned to Members of
Decimal Company Are
Well Secured.

1t developed yesterday during the
hearing of the suit of w. G. bartender
against c. Refs, w. II. Busch and Will
liam Purdy, directors of the Decimal
Mutual Life Insurance Company, that
the Pacific States Savings, Loan and
Building Company, of which the de-
PENDANTS named are also directors,
loaned to individuals and not to the
Decimal Company the $4,000, of which
$4,000 is involved. The loan was a per-
sonal one to the directors and is Sc
cured by gilt-edge bonds. This state
ment was made by Mr.. Refs on the
stand and cerrects the belief that the
Pacific States Company was out the sum
1T. loaned the Decimal.
THE loan is covered by gilt-edge
security" said Mr.. Refs. ''and can be
collected in half an hour if the Pacific
States Company desires. In fact 1 will
advance the money at moments no.
tice. so it is apparent that the impress
sion that the Pacific States has lost this
$4,000 is absurd. The loan was made in
the general order of business and ac-
cording to the rules of safe finance and
the Pacific States has lost nothing"
The hearing will be concluded to-day
