Nov. 20.-Nos ha sorprendido 81 au-
mepto en- 81 precio de In carne de 28 cts.

con Ia agravante de haberse conclude &

sin podeT comprar un artfculo de tanta
necesidad.
Desde la abolici6n de las subastas se-

possible Greer que 25 81 so centavos por
arroba sea snfciente motive para aumen
tar 81 precio del kilo en- centavos, con 10
cual Sc comprueba el monopolio que acu-
Bamos
Pero 81 este no fuera sufciente es necesa-
rio decir que el Tumor pdblico asegura que
por los abastecedores 'sconfabulados'' Sc ha
vendido terceras personals 81 derecho

que ese tercero tiene que ganarse, cuando

The three silver medal contests
did some fine work last Friday
night at the Presbyterian church,
where a goodly number listened
with interest to each one-for all
were good. Many markings we're
just a small fraction less than the
winning ones, which is most graf
flying to all concerned. Other CON
tests will soon give the est a
chance to wear a medal, passing
on TO a higher class. In the prep
arati0n Of every class we iave
sought to impress on their minds
that there is a greater object il the
work than obtaining a medal. Mrs.
Jerome Smith aud Miss Saarosy,
accompanied by Miss Wittmayer,
with their excellent music added
greatly to the pleasure of the even

Flood Mail With Souvenirs.

A number Of splendid postals Of
San Francisco have been received in
this city, and as much as they are APP
preclated now, their value as sOuve-
Mrs will be more than doubly in
creased as time passes on and the
most shocking tragedy of modern
times becomes but memory, and
the old familiar scenes are no more.
The most impressive of the pictures
perhaps, shows the entire down
town business district with the fire
approaching away in the distance.
The black pail Of smoke can be
clearly seen lowering like a dread
omen over the horizon, and mas
much as that entire section of the
city was later destroyed by the fire,
this especial picture will be price
less one IN the future years to those
who loved the old San Francisco.
Another striking postal shows the
stricken residents lined up for
blocks awaiting the provisions
which the officials are handing out
to them. Rich and poor alikecan
be picked out in the procession and
the expression on the various faces
form most interesting and in some
instances, pitful story, to those
given to looking into characters.
Another of the postals which
mutely tells It's sad story Of the
dreadful loss is a picture Of Golden
Gate park, peopled as it is with
200, 1000 of the refugees who have
lost almost everything they ever
possessed in either the earthquake
or the succeeding fire. The pictures
of Leland Stanford university at
Palo Alto; which have reached the
city on postal cards are likewise i'm
pressive in the extreme. Lancaster
people who have seen the university
and have received pictures Of it as
it suffered in the tragedy, are
