ARISING FROM ITS ASHES
San Francisco to be Greater, Grander
and Larger Than Before-Rebuild
in Six Months the General Cry

Oakland, Calif-San Francisco is
being rebabilitated. Already thou
sands of laborers are employed clear
ing away the ruins. Aided by sol
diers, they are dynamating the sway
in walls left after the earthquake
and fire.
All the wagons that can be spared
from the work of distributing sup
plies are being used to- cart away the
debris. Steel buildings which suf-
fered only superficial harm are being
inspected, and orders are being sent
which went up in smoke.
San Francisco does not intend to
sit supinely in the midst of its ruins.
1t intends to be larger and grander
than before the disaster, and to this
end all classes are cooperating.
Rebuilding to Be Rushed
REBUILD the city in six months, ="
is the general cry. While such a task
is impossible, it is certain that long
before that time has expired the
homeless will be housed, the artisan
will find work and the new CONNER
cial city will be rising on solid foun-
dations.
e. H. Hartman is here directing
all the energies of the Southern Pa
cific railroad toward a quick recupera-
ton. He spent the morning in San
Francisco with General Superintendent
E. E. Calvin, and announced after the
conference that the work of restoring
tho property of the road already had
been begun. 1t will be rushed to the
utmost.
New government buildings, better
than those destroyed, are 10 rise upon
the old site, and the $7000,00O city
hall will be replaced.
Financial San Francisco, stunned
for time by the catastrophe, is on
it's feet again. The clearing house
committee met today an d made plans

earliest possible date. The bankers

Queer Tradition of the AbOriginnI
Blacks of Australia
The aboriginal blacks of Australia
have queer tradition about the food.
They say that at one time there was no
water on the earth at all, except in the
body OF an immense frog, where men
and women could not get it. There
was great council on the subject, and
It was found out that II the frog could
be made to laugh the waters would
run out of his mouth and the drought
be ended.
So several animals were mnde to
dance and caper before the frog to In
duce him to laugh. but he did not even
smile. and so the waters remained In
his body Then some one happened to
think OF the queer contortions into
which the Gel could twist itself, and 1t
was straIghtawHy brought before the
frog. And when the frog saw the
wrIggllng he laughed so loud that tho
whole earth trembled, and the waters
poured out OF his mouth in a great
flood, in which many people were
drowned.
The black people were saved from
drowning by the pelican. This Thoughts
full bird made n big canoe and went
with 1t I'LL among the islands that up
peared here and there above the sur
face of the water and gathered In the
