What q Holiday Ought to BE.

Gen. Ferdinand W. Peck, the Chi
cago capitalist, says, according to the
New York Globe, that the way the av-
erage man spends his annual vacation
is all wrong.
Its only now and them" he said,
'that q man finds out what holiday
ought to be. We all think that it
means going away from home, drink
ing more or less and wearing our
bodies out by walking, or cycling, or
mountain climbing, or something like
that. That sort of thing is supposed
to be a great rest to tired man who
works with his brains How a vaca-
ton spent in that way could possibly
be of benefit to a professional man
who has to use his brains l have never
been able to understand. Very likely
professional ass might be benefited
in that way, but it's all nonsense to
say that it rests lawyers, or editors,
or authors, or even politicians
brains. In my opinion, the best and
most beneficial way in the world for
the man who makes his living solely
by the use of his gray matter to spend
his holidays is simply to do the gentle
loaf in some green and shady spot far
away from the madding crowd, and to
keep himself in touch with the out
side world by having his favorite
newspaper mailed to him every day"

TRANSFER SYSTEM
Club Advocates Transports
ton Between Fillmore
and California Street Cars

The Fillmore Street Improvement
Club is endeavoring to arrange between
the United Railroads and the California
street line an interchange of transfers
at Fillmore and California streets. At
recent meeting of the club the cam
paign was started and committee was
appointed to wait upon the officials of
the two roads and present the propo-
sition.
Thornwell Mullally said last evening
that the matter had not been presented
to the United Railroads as yet and he
did not desire to discuss it until he
had met the members of the Improve
ment Club. Isn't it rather unusual for
competing roads to adopt such policy
of reciprocity" he questioned. The
matter will be considered if it is pre-
sented. Mutually continued, "and we
shall keep the best interests of the
city In mind in deciding it."
Mutually says that the cars will be
running on. Valencia street as soon as
the city completes the laying of the
sewer on that street between Eigh-
teenth and Nineteenth. That should be
In about two weeks. New rails have
not been laid the company intending to
operate on the bump-the-bu bumps prin-
ciple in vogue on other lines, noticably
on McAllister and on Hayes streets for
short time-or until the electric cars
grow too proud to use the cable road s
rails.
Mutually denied the rumor which
started in the car barns, that on Mon
day morning twenty-nine car crews
could not go out, owing to the number
or cars in the repair shop. The as
sistant to the president of the United
Railroads stated that only a compari-
tlveiy few cars were undergoing re-
pairs-not enough to cripple the SER
vice.

HALF A MILLION FOR
THE NEEDY.
Representatives Satisfied
Local Committees Can
Best Handle Relief Money
WILL MAKE REPORT

Colonel William d. Sohier will rec
ommend to the Massachusetts relief
committee within the next forty-eight
hours that the fund of s549,9S0, with
$4,000 accrued interest, -be turned over
to the San Francisco Relief and Red
Cross Corporation, to be distributed
as that body sees fit.
Colonel Sohier has not made public
any announcement of his intentions,
nor will he do so until the recon-
mendation made by Jacob Furth is
finally accepted by the Massachusetts
relief committee, but to his friends he
has made the statement that in his
opinion the local committee in charges
of the distribution of funds has done
noble work well and can be trusted
to spend the Massachusetts money
wisely
This determination on the part of
Colonel Sohier and Jacob Furth is the
result of a thorough Investigation of
the relief situation in San Francisco.
They have made personal visitations.
at every camp. talked with the local
committee, gone over the books to see
how the money already donated has
been spent and talked for hours with
refugees of every class. After this in
yestigation Colonel Sohier has said to
his friends: The San Francisco com
mittee is all right They are the best
men 70 CO the Work mere.
There is no douht that the recon-
mendation of Colonel Sohier and Jacob
Furth will be accepted by the Massa-
chusetts committee. The citizens of
the Bay State have been holding back
the fund, fearing that it might be fool
ishly used before the local committee
had learned by experience the most
economical way to handle it,
The executive committee of the Re-
lief Corporation entertained Colonel
William Sohier and Jacob Furth, the
agents of the Boston relief committee,
al a luncheon at the University Club
yesterday, and as a result failed to
hold their regular semi weekly meet
ing. The labors of Sohier and Furth
IN San Francisco are about completed
Furth leaves for Seattle today and
Colonel Sohier will take his departure
for Boston tomorrow. They have made
exhaustive Investigations OF conditions
existing here and will report their
findings to the Boston committee.

WEBER IS NEARING
THE GALLON|s.

SACRAMENTO, Sept. 25.-Unless Gov
ernor Pardee intervene, Adolph Weber
will be hanged at Folsom Prison next
Thursday for the murder of his mother.
While charged with the murder of his
father, mother, brother and sister. he
was tried on only one charge.
Governor Pardee was asked today if
he would indicate what action he will
take on the petition for a Communication
of the sentence and he replied that he
would not discuss the case. 1t is not
believed the Governor will take any
action whatever, thus permitting the
law to take it's course.
Late this afternoon F. P. Tuttle,
counsel for Weber. appeared at the
Governors office. He stated he would
petition for another reprieve OF fifteen
days for Weber, to permit of the intro
duction of further evidence in the con-
demned mans behalf.
Tuttle also filed afiidavits by Police
men D. r. Campbell and j. Mccain,
stating that Carr had told them he had
been asked to identity the pistol with
which Weber killed his family, but
he could not do it.
