Interesting Suit on Abstract.
Second Mortgage Good.

Later the mortgage foreclosure was declared
invalid In that the attorneys did not name all
she persons who should have been made de-
PENDANTS. This made the second mortgage and
other liens holding, and it was to recover the
amount Of these that the suit was instituted
against Mr.. Avery.
The attorneys for the defendant, in support
or the motion for the direction Of verdict in
favor OF the defendant, contended that the suit
must be brought against the certificate, which
was simply liability or obligation They
pointed out that on this the statute of nmtta-
ZION would expire in six years, and that more
than six years had elapsed since the making
OF the abstract Of the land before the action
was Instituted. Judge Jones sustained this view.

THEHTER WILL
RISE BY NIGHT

A theater built by electric light-that
is what the new Columbia will be. The
project is typical of these rush days.
Inc Columbia Theater management,
realizing the need of frst-class play
house in hurry, decided to act quickly
before some outsider could get the
start The new theater will be located
at the corner of Geary street and Van
Ness avenue
The theater building will be per-
manent one of steel and stone. Besides
the playhouse it will contain a number
of modern Offices The structure will
cost over $4,000. The plans have al
ready been completed by Architects
Shea 6, Shea, and the material has been
ordered.
As soon as ground has been broken,
which will be within a few days, poles
will be erected around the lot, sur
mounted by electric lights, in order
that three crews of workmen can be
steadily employed on the structure.
The new theater will have q greater
seating capacity than the old Columbia
and a larger stage. The foresighted
management of the Columbia has de-
cided to make the place adequate to
hold a grand opera crowd. The am
bitten of the management is to have
the Conried opera company return and
finish the uHcompleted tour at the new

WILLIAM MORRIS CLUB Is
AGAINST GROCERY SALOONS
Ladies Submit Resolutions to Super
Visers and Want License
Raised to SI00e.

If the Board of Supervisors follows
the wishes of the William Morris Club,
saloons will be barred from corner gro
ceries, drug stores and other mercantile
Establishments. Not only that, but the
club recently adopted resolutions ask
ing the board TO put the liquor license
at $1,000 a year.
These resolutions were filed with the
board yesterday and read as fellows:
Whereas, The city of San Francisco
has during the period from April Is
up TO the present time been freed from
suit from the establishment ofNVariOuS
kinds of saloons, dance halls and dives;
and
Whereas, It is to the interest of
every community to lessen far as
possible all such evils; and
Whereas, Since men are willing for
the sake of profit to engage in injuri-
sacrifice of the health, morals and
economy of our citizens, and since men
are not yet intelligent enough to abol-
ish the whole profit system, which is
the cause of so much suffering and
Injustice in our business relations;
therefore be it
Resolved, That in order to mitigate
the evil we do hereby request the hon
orable Mayor and Board of Supervisors
not TO grant any licenses for a saloon
IN cons ection with the grocery busi-
ness, the drug business or any other
mercantile establishment; and further
be il
Resolved, That the license for all sa
looms that are permitted to exist be not
less than $1,000 for each saloon

QUEEN COMPANY

Contending that the Queen City Fire
Insurance Company is taking advan-
tage of technicality to refuse pay

Frank Huffman brought suit in the
Justice Court yesterday afternoon to
recover that amount from the COM
pany. Full proof of the loss is as
serted in the complaint, which is made
after the Now Y York form.
Alf Groves, who with william B.
White represents the plaintiff, says
that payment is refused on the ground
that Huffman changed his place of
residence without securing necessary
permission. The attorney also declares
that the policy was left with the com
panys agent some four or five days
before the fire, for the purpose of hav-

SUMMER SCHOOLS FOR

At THE PRESIDE
Opening Is Delayed Because Of
Recent Regulation Of

Music, Drawing. Sewing and

Be Taught

Sumner schools were TO have been
opened in the two refugee camps at the
Preside yesterday, but a question of
authority caused a postponement II
appears that the Board of Health re-
Gently adopted a regulation TO the eff
feet that no more than ten children
should be brought together in any
classroom or private school At least
that is what D. L. Flint. who is in
charge Of the Red Cross work in Camp
No. 1. was given TO understand by an
official from the Office OF the Health
Board.
MI Flint while of the opinion that
il was not the intention of the board
10 make its regulation apply TO the
Preside, where everything is done to
preserve excellent sanitary conditions
and TO look after the general health
Of the refugees. determined TO make
further inquiries concerning the mat
ter as well as TO the authority of the
board as applying 10 the reservation.
The school in Camp No. l viii have
100 pupils, which would of course
greatly exceed the number specified by
the Health Board
We propose to establish these sum
mer schools to get the children in the
camps together" said Mr.. Flint 1t is
really in the nature of settlement
work. They viii be taught physical
culture and given lessons in music and
drawing. Story books will be fur
nished to the children and to the
younger ones these stories viii be read
by the teachers.
one OF the most important factors
will be the sewing class. The children
viii be furnished with needles and
thread and cloth and taught the useful
art of sewing
We thought that two hours in the
morning and two in the afternoon
would be pleasantly spent by the chill
dren- During the recesses they viii be
served with milk and wholesome food.
The School Department has promised TO
furnish us such books as we need.
The school will be in charge of Mrs.
Caro-. who was formerly a school
teacher. She viii be assisted by Miss
NIcDermott of the San Francisco School
Department Other teachers will be
engaged if found necessary
We also hope, continued Mr. Flint.
''tO have a kindergarten established for
children between four and six years of
age The regular kindergarten system
will furnish the piano and other equip
ment. Miss StovaIt viii have charge of
this work. I hope now to have the
school ana kindergarten established in

lighted over the prospect and their
parents have expressed their entire ap-

On December Huffman moved to Sc

Howard, the transfer being agreed to
by the company. In March of the

third time to Hayward street, and the
complaint states that the transfer was

the fire. in which the loss of property to
Huffman is estimated at $525, he made
proof of loss, as required by law, but
payment was denied and suit is being
