earthquake two Of the most prominent
corners in the city were occupied by
gambling dens. One of them, known
as the Cafe Royal, has been a veritable
gold mine for its proprietors. 80 -
The California supreme court has
rendered a decision to the effect that
the game Of draw poker is not a game
Of chance, but involves judgment and
other elements as well as chance or
luck, and because of this decision these
places are permitted to be maintained.
They are frequented by a hard look
Ing crowd Of men, and many scandals
are told associated with these places.
A visitors life is probably safe in these
resorts, but his money is not. 1t is said
that the son of the premier of British
Columbia was fleeced of $500 in the
Cafe Royal few years ago, He lost
$1,000 in cash, but stopped payment on
$1,000 in checks.
San Francisco has forty square
miles Of territory, or about 10000
acres, within the municipal limits. The
finest residences are on Mob hill and
Pacific heights, both of which districts
command magnificent views of the
bay and the Golden Gate. The city
has six large parks and twenty-five
small ones, and Golden Gate park oc-
cupies over 1000 acres.

In 1916 an American man-of-war, IN

her dominion over San Francisco.
Montgomery appointed Lieutenant
Washington A. Bartlett to be Frisco's
first alcalde, or mayor, under the new
regime. Under Spanish and Mexican
rule the town was sleepy, unprogress-

After the first rush to the gold dig
gings the town began to regain its lost
ground, and ere long the influx of gold
seekers gave quite an impetus to it's
growth. The town was incorporated
In April, 1850, and the first common
council elected proceeded with diligence
to plumber the city treasury. The
same year the state was admitted to
the Union, and when the steamer Ore
gon brought the news-there was no
telegraphic communication in those
days-business was entirely suspended
and the entire population rushed to the
wharfs to welcome the harbinger. The
town had about 10000 inhabitants at
that time, and when the people were
Informed that the signal flags Of the
Oregon indicated that California was q
sovereign state Of the United States of
America "a universal shout arose from
10000 voices on the wharfs, in the
streets, upon the hills, housetops and
the world Of shipping in the bay"
In its, early history the city suffered
from several disastrous fires. Between
December, 1849, and June, 1851, six
conflagrations played havoc with the
growing young town. Better buildings
were planned and several fire compa-
MES were organized. These were steps
in the right direction. It was also dis
covered that the fires were started by
criminals who profted by the confu-
sion.
This fact and the ineficiency and
corruption of the city government led
a large number of citizens to organ
lie the famous vigilance committee
which ruled the place in 1851. Quite a
number Of crooks were lynched by
the committee, others were driven out,
