SILVER LINING FOUND
TO FRISCO DISASTER
Pacific Mail Steamship Company
Makes Provision for Tourists to
the Orient.

Just at present travellers to the Orient
via San Francisco find themselves es-
peciaIly favored. After the San Fran
cisco disaster one Of the first thoughts
TO prospective Eastern tourists was that
the trip must be given up. for the pres
ont. at least
Later news, however. brought the in
formation that the ships and docks of
the Pacific Mail Steamship Company
were unharmed and that sailings TO all
ports would continue on the regular
schedule.
The company now announces that pas
sengers may occupy their stateroOms
while the ships are in port and that
ample hotel accommodations are avail
able IN the surrounding towns.
The opportunity thus given 10 Oriental
travellers Tor viewing probably the
greatest ruins that the world has ever
seen, has given truth 10 the old adage
that IT'S an III wind that blows good 10
no one"

FRONT YARD REFORM
HAS BEEN STARTED
Parking Association Organ
lied to Beautify Grounds.
OUTLOOK IS BRIGHT
Only Requisite for Membership Is a
Pledge to Keep Ones Surroundings
in Creditable Condition.

w n a view OF stimulating civic pride
and influencing people in taking a spe-
cial interest in the lawns and parlSinss
in f.'Unt Of tn cir residences. John Taylor
Arms, of the real estate firm Of Arms &
Drury. 1911 c. street northwest. has
organized the Parking Association, OF
which he Is the president.
Already between 800 and 400 names
have been enrolled. and applications
are being received by Hr. Arms at the
rate Of about thirty a day. There are
no dues or assessments connected with
the organization. and the Jnly condi-
ton Of membership is that the party
shall pledge himself 10 keep ,the parking
in front of his residence Ia good condi-
ton No uniform system isS suggested
by the association, nor is itgthe inten-
tIun of .he association TO make any
such recommendation. the one desire
being 10 have the residents improve and
keep the lawns in such condition that
the beauty of the National Capital will
not be handicapped by ugly-yar scat-
tered among the well-kept lawns.
Possibilities forsBeautifying.
Mr.. Arms says thatAYYashington offers
possibilities for civic Fbeauty not found
in any other city inSthe country, and
TO fully realize thesespossibllities there
must be cooperation OF the people as
well as public parks and bother improve
ments by the Government.
Those who heard of dhe plan at first. -
said Mr.. Arms. argued that they kept
their parlIings n goOd'conditiOn and saw
no reason why they should join any
such society. Finally 1 explained TO
/ each one personally that 1 wanted their
names on the membership list 10 matter
if they did keep thedr parkings in the
finest shape all the year round.

and his property sold for mortgage, and when he
had not an attachable dollar left the prison door
was opened A similar case is on record in Boston
The attorney general of Maine says My in
formation is that when Maine some years ago abol-
shed Imprisonment for debt there were then only
two States in which the Imprisonment of debtors
still constitutional" The two States referred
to were Massachusetts and Rhode Island and both
have since made it impossible to imprson debtors
with exceptions. There more persons in Massa-
chusetts jas, the result of not paying their bills
than in any other State in the Union The smallest
amount for which debtor be arrested in Massa-
chusetts is twenty dollars and cent. A clerk
employed by insurance company in Springfield
owed his tailor forty dollars The tailor could not
attach the clerk SalarV but made affidavit TO the
belief that the defendant had property not legally
exempt under the circumstances, which he did not
intend to apply to payment of the debt" After
two weeks in debtors cell, the clerk proved that
he had no such property.
Even Young Women Not Exempt
a MOTHER and more forcible example of the work
ings of the Massachusetts, debtors law is that of
a Boston young woman, a magazne-writer. She
owed typewriter twenty-five dollars the bill hav-
ing been rendered monthly for half a year. She
was offered position on New York periodical
She accepted, and a few days later when she was
about to buy ticket for New York she was ar
rested. The warrant showed that the typewriter
believed that the person to be arrested is about
to leave the commonwealth" The latter affirmed
that it was true that she about to leave, but
that she doing in order to earn money with
which to pay the twenty-five dollars. This affrma-
ton the court ignored but allowed her twelve hours
to obtain bail. As the young would not
appeal to her friends, she was locked up over night
The next day her friends volunteered the bail and
furnished surety that she would appear for exam
nation Meanwhile she not permitted to
leave the State and the only way she could escape
further arrest was by taking poor debtors oath.
By the time the matter ended the New York posi-
ton had been filled In the course of the action
the charge made that the authoress was about
to abscond, and should therefore be treated as an
absconder in intent.
1t is true herein that the authoress should have
known the law it is equally true that the type
writer entitled to her money or to security for
its future payment but it is fact that few if any
women ever do know the law; and that refined and
sensitive young woman be locked up in a COM
mon jail, not only for but for many days,
through ordinary commercial transaction, is a
serious matter indeed. The destruction of her
means and power to make payment is not the
least serious side of the question.
These debt imprisonments take all sorts of Curl
Gus forms, with ever-varyng results. In late
New York city case young woman entered the
restaurant Of a fashionable hotel, ordered a meal
