MAESTRETTI WITHOUT
AN OFFICIAL BOND
Aetna Indemnity Company
Withdraws as Surety for
Commissioner of Works.

The Aetna Indemnity Company yes
terday filed with Auditor Baehr a no.
tice that it desires to withdraw as
surety on the official bond of Frank A.
Maestretti, Commissioner of Public
Works, and to be relieved from all liza
bility thereon hereinafter arising.
The company ascribes as its reason
for withdrawing from Maestrettfs bond
that it fears it will sustain loss If it
remains longer thereon.
Auditor Baehr sent notification to
Maestretti that he must file a new Of
fetal bond in the sum of $4,000 within
ten days of the date of the filing of the
notice of withdrawal by the Aetna
Company.
This makes the second company that
has withdrawn from Maestretti's bond.
the United States Fidelity and Guar
anty Company having done so last
year. Maestretti will find it difficult to
secure surety company to go on his
bond and may have to obtain personal
sureties. The fact that the Commits

to be individually responsible for ac-
cidents due to defective streets and
sidewalks is the real cause of the

ocean, while that part lying to the
east OF the cemeteries along the hills
discloses the beauties OF the valley ly
ing to the westward.
1t is surprising that this road can be
built on light grades and therefore de-
voted to all classes of vehicles. and
those who for years have been deprived
of the pleasure of driving in the
suburbs of San Francisco, with the ex-
ception of Golden Gate Park, when this
road is an accomplished fact, will have
boulevard which no lover of horses
has ever contemplated.
There has been a Misrepresentation to
the effect that the boulevard is intended
for automobiles. This is not so. 1t is
intended for all pleasure vehicles. and
under the deed of the Spring Valley
Company granting the right of way
through its property is to be devoted
to this purpose, heavy teaming only
being prohibited.
1t is the intention OF those who are
working on this boulevard to obtain
500 subscriptions from $50 public spir-
tied citizens of this community, making
total Of $4,000, the amount required
to build this boulevard. 1t is difficult
for them TO reach all those who cannot
fail TO recognize the untold advantages
to a city of this size through having
SuCH boulevard, and this means is
taken TO bring the subject to their at
tention so they may have the oppor-
tunity of giving the assistance required.
The list below shows the names of
those who have subscribed and the
amount of the subscriptions The
money is now deposited in banks of San
Francisco The Spring Valley Company
as well as the South San Francisco
Land and Improvement Company and
the Crocker Estate Company have very
generously donated this land for a
right Of way through their respective
properties for this boulevard.

The only way a woman can always

only the game that she knows. But
she gets tired Of that She wishes to

has much to lose before that time.
Whether what she gains will cOmpen-

Before she gains a perfect equality

traitor Of Dewey Estate
The immense estates OF c. ?. Dewey,
the millionaire stock king Of Kansas,
are to be settled at last, and are to be
settled by a Salina boy. says the Sa-
lima Journal. Clyde Wilson OF SaIina
has been appointed administrator OF
the Dewey estate in Kansas, and has
taken the oath OF ONCE in Manhattan,
where he is now making his home.
The Dewey estate In Kansas includes
an electric light and ice plant in Man
haitian, q twelve thousand acre ranch
near Manhattan well stocked with
cattle and several other ranches Of
equal size in the western part Of the
state.
Mr.. Wilson began his work with the
Deweys three years ago this fan, be-
ginning as bOOkkeeper for the com
pany. From bOOl1keeper he has ad-
vanced step by step until now he is
vice president Of the company, gener-
al manager OF the Ice, Heat and Pow
er company Of Manhattan, and a di-
rector in the company. His present
position has been secured to him be
cause Of the confidence resopsed in
him by the managers Of the Dewey
estates. His bonds have been filed
the oath Of office.
The rapid rise Of Mr.. Wilson demon
strates what can be done by ability
and perseverance in a short time. Be
fore his graduation from the business
college three years ago, he had been a
student several terms at the Salina
normal, and had served as a volun-
teer in the Philippines. He IS an in
innate friend Of Colonel z. Q. Little
OF Abilene, and OF Colonel W. Q. Net
calf. He IS now 2S years Of age, and
in q position, with his business ability
and perseverance, to make one OF the
leading men Of the state within a few
/ years.
Chauncey Dewey came down Mon
/ day from Chicago to confer with Mt
/ Wilson, after having stopped q few
| days on the way in Topeka. The death
Of Q. p. Dewey occurred about a year
/ and a half ago. but it will be some
time before the affairs Of the estate
can be adjusted.

An Estimate Of Jerome.

In the October Worlds Work N G.
Cunnin describes the unique person
atty Of New YOrk's district attorney
in an article, jerome: a Man" The
following incident is related:
A New York reporter once tele-
phOned TO the proprietor Of a gam
bling house who had defied the law
for years and said, inquiringly:
We have heard that you were
raided this evening. Is it trUe?"
NO, il isn't true" replied the gam
bier Ne run a gambling house,
What are you giving us2"
But our information came from
the district attorneys Office" objected
the reporter.
"Oh, Jerome told you, did hep
came after a pause. We'll, IL you got
it from jerome it's straight. I was
raided, and you can take il from me,
young Teller, that anything Jerome
tells you is on the level don't care
what it is"
It is just because the public, too, be-
lieves this that District Attorney
Jerome Of New York, has become a
unique force for good in our public
life. He has told US things that have
made many q cuddled delusiOn wrig-
gle with discOmfOrt-the Ransans
that their prohibition law IS a sham
cultivated New Workers that the
shan.es and evils Of the city are up
to them" college men that they shirk
their duty, public officers that they
compromise with political corruption,
refOrmers that they deceive them
selves.
81 believe" he said one day, that
somehow OF other, telling the truth is
better than lying. If only for the man
himself" and then he added, besides,
you have announced what many other
people think and daren't say"
