The Etude club, composed of score

unique entertainment to number of
invited guests in Studio Arcade hall

Handel was the subject of the pro

on the piano and short recitations given
of incidents in his life, while impromptu
tableaux vivants based on musical
scenes enlivened and amused the au-
dience. Those participating were Grace

it exceeded $500. The number of bodies

Many bodies were, besides, known to

destroyed before it was reached by the
food.
s. Comparisons, too. are interesting as
to the work Of helping the survivors.
Contributions aggregating -$4.116,S01.4S
in cash were received and ! 900 carloads
of goods, estimated at ST., 900 in
value. Every state in the union con-
tributed. Minnesota sent 1927 $40. IA,
about One-tnlrd OF the amount 1t mas
raised for San Francisco. The state Of
Pennsylvania paid for clearing away
the wreckage. the work costing about
100000
These contributions included those Of
sixteen foreign countries, while those
for San Francisco are confined to the
United States because Of the attitude of
President Roosevelt, undoubtedly, who
has decided for the nation that outside
aid is unnec essary. The flood sufferers
were divided into six classes, and sums
paid to them varied all the way from
$40 to $4,000, according to circum-
stances. The latter sum was paid to
three persons, but there were many who
received from ST. 500 to$3,0O0 and over.
The far greater number, however, re-
ceived from 800, or less, to $500. =
Some lessons from the relief Of the
sufferers might be applied in the case
of San Francisco. For instance, real
estate was counted by the board of in
quiry as practically total loss, whereas
real estate year after the flood was
worth as much as ever and has been in
creasing in value ever since. The town
now has a population of $4,000, as
against 10000 in 1889, and its manu-
featuring industries have greatly in
+ creased.
There has been regret since, that a
plan proposed by Tom L. johnson OF
Cleveland, was not tried. He pro
posed that minimum should be fxeo
for each sufferer; each householder tc
receive the value of household goods
and wearing apparel, after that add
tional sums to be distributed in proper
