erty in San Francisco. We hear of this
being saved and that being saved. and
a man Will proudly show you a picture
of his own that he saved himself; but
that conveys no idea OF the act of saw
ing. Some of the things 1 have heard
OF tempt me to ask 'why?" The only
answer I can give is that the love of
art is stronger in many people than
they think, and that picture they
have had for many years appeals to
them in ways they do not understand
They simply feel its influence. But,
then, that's enough.
Being on the eastern side of the bay
during the trouble, had an opportu-
nifty of seeing the fleeing people as
they landed at the Oakland mole. Three
hours after the shake a boatload of
over 1000 landed. and as they came off
the boat with all their worldly prop
erty l was astonished at the number of
pictures that were being carried. All

kinds, good, bad and Indifferent, land
scapes, figures, portraits. The people
had not had time to wrap them up, so
their character was distinguishable
One man / saw walking off the boat
coolly enough. attired only in clothes
intended for a bedroom, had baby
under one arm and an oil painting un-
der the other. Apparently these were
his only two worldly treasures. be-
cause his clothes had no pockets to
earry even small purse, let alone any
thing else.
In the relief camps it was the same
thing. Every little pile of property had
one or more pictures that the owners
seemed more concerned about than any
hing else.
We have all heard in a general way
of how many big collections were
moved at great expense and so saved
for future generations TO enjoy, but the

stry
Mrs Victor H. MetcaIf. the wife of
Secretary Metcalf, has recently arrived
in California from her home in Wash
ington, D. c., and will spend the sum-
mer in Oakland as the guest of her
mother, Mrs. Nicholson. Mrs. Metcalf
is very popular both in Oakland and on
this side of the bay and many enter
tainments are planned in her honor
during her stay here. Her son, Mid
shipman Victor Nicholson Metcalf.
whose engagement to Miss Buffers was
recently announced. is at present at
Portland. Oregon. on the flagship Chi
cago.
Plans are already being made by
Mrs. Ynez Shorb White for her dances
next winter. as she has been besieged
by requests from both girls and men
that she should not discontinue these
affairs, which were so delightful a fea-
ture of last winters social season. The
patronesses will, with a few exeep-
tions. be the same as before and the
dances will, as formerly, take place at
the Palace Hotel. Not. alas in the
beautiful white and gold ballroom of

for some of the young girls to emulate
Mrs Merrill in their dealings with
the poor. What Mrs. Merrill has
achieved within the past few weeks
would at any time be remarkable, but
WHEN one considers her personal af-
fairs, the dynamiting of the handsome
Merrill home on Van Ness avenue, and
the loss of all the treasures therein,
valuable both intrinsically and from
associations, and the severe financial
loss in Mr. MerrilIs business, what
she has done seems little short Of
marvellous.
Mrs Ynez Shorb White is another.
society woman who has devoted her
time and ability to work among the
refugees. During the fire Mrs; White,
her mother, Mrs. Shorb, and the other
members of the family, fed from their
house on Vallejo street, which was
badly damaged by the earthquake and
which they thought would certainly be
burned, with their silver and a few
bundles of clothing, they went to Fort
Mason. For a time conditions there
were distressing and Mrs. White be-
came at once interested in trying TO
make the rough places little, smooth
er for the homeless, penniless, foodless
people Such marked executive abil-
ty did she display that she was placed
in charge of much of the work there
and is still there for some hours each
day, although she has been asked to
aid in the work in several other camps.
Mrs. Ned" Dimond is another of the
busiest and most practical workers of
the city, having allied herself with the
interests of the local Red Cross. She
was at the time of the disaster on her
way to Europe with the Joseph Sadoc
Tobins for a continental tour en- auto
mobile Giving this up she returned
/ at once to San Francisco and has given
her services and the use of her auto
mobile for errands of mercy without
number.
The pretty attractive Wright sisters,
Jeanette and Marion. who were
among the buds of last season, were
for a time in what they termed the
old clothes business" the former hav-
/ ing charge of the distribution of cloth
/ ing at the barracks in Golden Gate
Park, while Miss Marion assisted at
the clothing bureau at Calvary Church.
This bureau was in charge of Mrs.
Breyfogle who. until her departure for
the East, accomplished much. Miss
Dorothy Collier and Miss Sara Collier
were also assisting Mrs. Breyfogle >and
I engaged in other work as well.

OF the social life and particularly is
this true at the present time.
Most Of the young men of the busi-
ness world have their thoughts on In

"O be truly fashionable one must
be more or less philanthropic in
these times, and the woman of
society who has not her pet
charity or scheme for the better
rnent Of mankind is somewhat Of
rarity. The underlying motives of
this love of humanity are too di-
versihed to be discussed here and
there are endless arguments as to
whether my Lady Bountiful becomes
snobbish OF filled with the milk Of
human kindness and whether the re-
cipients Of old clothes. money or a few

feeced and the poor have to endure
patiently what would seem to be more
than their share of trouble in the way
OF unwise and impertinent charity.

Hat Assessed at $500.

The County Board of Equalization
recently sent word to a young woman
living in Kansas City that her assess
ment had been raised $500. In po-
ntely written note received a few days
ago by the members of the board at
Independence, the young woman said
there must be a mistake. She said the
only thing she had got was a new
Easter hat. and it was a dream but
she was sure it did not justify a raise
of $500.
The board decided that the point
was we'll taken.-Kansas City Star.
