That description, written of San
Francisco over fifty years ago fits the
scene of April IS, 1906. Within nine
hours 1900 buildings had been des.
troyed; almost the entire city was in
ruins. 1t was the greatest calamity
that has befallen city since the burn
Ing OF Moscow and the loss was great
er than that Of all the other fires COM
bined.
The district burned over occupied
the greater part of the ground bounded
by Pine and Vellejo streets and Du-
pont and Battery streets.
Within ten days after the fire three
hundred temporary buildings had been
erected and the remainder of the burn
ed district was building up rapidly.
On June IL, following an enraged nom
ulace hung one of the desperadoes in
portsmouth square and his fellows
made their threats that they would

was no doubt, as the flames shot up at
widely separate points and in two or
three instances persons detected apply
ing fire were caught. In three or four
hours the district bounded by Broad
way, Clay, Powell and Sansome streets
had been burned over, causing a loss
of about $4,000,OOO.
Then there was the fire of 1856 which
caused heavy loss in the business dis
trict, but the residents were then pre-
pare dto meet it. Always there has
been energy determination and indom-
liable perseverance after each disaster.
Standing among the smoldering
ruins of San Francisco fifty-five years
ago this month, a San Franciscan
said:
so great is our confidence in the
advantages and natural location of
this place, and in recuperating ener-
gles OF our fellow citizens, that we do
not for minute hesitate to say that
San Francisco will rise again and oc-
cupy the position which nature evil
IDENTIFY intended her to occupy and
adorn. OF this fact neither our own
citizens nor our friends abroad ever
doubt. There is hope enough, energy
enough, determination enough, among
us to do it. 1t will take time, bold
hearts an DWELLING hands, hopefullness
and patience to do it, but it will be
DONE"

TURNING THE COLORADO.
Effort to Get It Back to Original
Course.

An army of men will shortly begin
the titanic struggle with the rushing
Colorado river, at attempting to check
the devastation which the change in
the rivers course has brought to two
states. Three hundred square miles
, flooded, 200 miles of railroad tracks
washed out, thriving industry ruin
ed-this is the record of the destruc-
ton caused by the river breaking
through it's banks and flooding the
surrounding country.
The Colorado river is the dividing
line between Arizona and the southern
portion of California. Most of the
water has poured into the Yuma Basin,
in Arizona, but the flood has also
brought destruction to the one in
dustry in the miles of the burning
Southern California desert. The
Salton, Sink, once part of the Paci-
fic's bed, but for centuries past level
bottom of pure salt harvested year af-
ter year for the markets, has been
flooded, and the unique salt farm"
been wiped out of existence, temper
arily at least. Hopes are held forth
that the work which the Southern rail-
road company is to begin will make
the salt industry possible there again,
and that once more the little village
of Salton, where the salt workers
lived, will be populated.
To operate this novel salt farm a
plough was designed, drawn by a
cable attached to a small steam To-
connective. This locomotive passed to
and fro on miniature track, and by
means of a big grooved wheel, set
horizontally in the fashion of street
cable, the plough was drawn at right
angles to the engine. Ploughed into
burrows, the salt was heaped into
great cones, placed in cars and shipped
to the market, the greater part of it
requiring no refining process, SO pure
was it.
The salt farm was a profitable in
dustry and the operating company built
a little settlement at the foot of the
mountain. Here the salt was treated
when necessary. and here were the
homes of the workmen and their fam
lilies. But deserted, for it has become,
literally. another Great Salt Lake.

A PEACE MONUMENT.
1t Bears Stars and Stripes and Stars
and Bars.

Portsmouth, Va, has only one mill
tary artillery company. 1t was or
ganized in 1909, when John Tyler, the
father of President Tyler, was COVER
nor of the state, by Captain Arthur
Emmerson. The company was named
the Portsmouth Light Artillery COM
pany, and under Captain Emmerson
fought valiantly at Craney island on
June %, 1913. The roll of the men
who fought in that battle under the
Stars and Stripes, when the flag con-
tanned only eighteen stars, has been
preserved by the descendants of Cap
tain Emmerson, Arthur, the fourth
OF the generation, is now resident
of Portsmouth.
The company organization was kept
up, and when the war between the
states began enrolled over hundred
men who mustered into active service
on April 20, 1861, under Captain Carey
F. Grimes. Its career was marked in
the confederate service. 1t was holly
engaged at Malvern hill, second Man
assas and Sharpsburg, where it's cap
tain was shot from his horse while
directing the fire of its guns. After
this engagement its ranks were so de-
pleted that 1t was disorganized and
its men divided between two other
artillery companies. After the war it
was reorganized for the Virginia vol
unteer corps. under Captain G.. w. r.
McDonel, and when he retired Captain
Carey R. Warren was elected its cap
tain, and now it is commanded by
Captain Charles A. Cutheriell, a son
of one of it's war veterans.
On June a monument was erected
to the company's members who fell
under each flag. The shaft of the
monument is eighteen feet high, of
rough Virginia granite, with four
polished sides. On one side are in
scribed the names of Captain Arthur
Emmerson's men who fought with him
at Craney Island, surmounted by two
United States flags, crossed, and on
this front base "Craney Island" in
raised letters. The other three faces
contain the roll Of the confederate
soldiers who served under Captain
Grimes, and these names are sur
mounted by confederate flags crossed,
and on the base Malvern HILL" "Sec-
ond Manassas" and Sharpsburg." This
is said to be the first monument in
the United States containing both the
Stars and Stripes and the confederate
flag. 1t will be called the Peace
Monument of Portsmouth.

SUMMARY
es, Luderus,
Notes of the Game.

Z Bushelman pitched the finest game
seen here this season and with proper
support (from the umpire, support in
this connection meaning truthful de-
cisions) should have been returned
winner. He would anyway, had his
teammates been able to make a lick
at the proper time. Bushelman had
all sorts of control. The same should
be said of Cummings who performed
very creditably not only in his capacity
of pitcher but as batter. He won his
own game in the tenth with the two
Dagger which scored Barto. The fact
that but an hour and forty minutes
was consumed in playing the entire
game of ten innings Is testimonial
to the kind of performance presented.

off double play which saved the
game--for that inning.

The Browns might learn some of the
tricks performed by Artie. O'Dea's
crowd.
Fogarty made one decision in the
game that did not meet with local
favor. That was calling Chandler out
at first in the sixth, when he appar-
emily had the ball beaten foot. The
general rule with umpires is to favor
the runner anyway when there is
slight doubt.
The Browns are schedule for four
games with Fargo-all in a row.

Copper Country league teams are
having trouble with their umpires.
New ones are eagerly sought and many
indicator men have been turned adrift
this season.
In a recent game at Winnipeg, Lilli-
welt and Wotell. of Lake Linden, went
after ICY" Seymour's record when
pitching for the giants by giving eigh-
teen bases on balls, Winnipeg scoring
seventeen runs on five hits. In the
same game the peggers purloined
seventeen bases on Catcher Kruck-
three times double steals registering
men at the plate.
The weather throughout the entire
circuit has been very disagreeable and
for want of practice the players have
been somewhat erratic. The umpires,
too, can be included in this; they re-
quire work just as we'll as the players.
There is at least one man who is
wasting time in the "Nancy" league.
That man is Harold Bond, of the Win
nipegs. Bond has won six, lost but
two games, and in those eight contests
struck out fifty-six men and once let
down Grand Forks without hit or
run. At the bat he has made fourteen
hits for twenty-seven bases, an average
OF 1883. Bond has Just graduated from
the University of Minnesota and only
left his teens" year ago.

"The Maid and the Mummy" is a rat
Ting good musical comedy. 1t has just
enough plot on which to string:a fine lot
of songs and dances, some new and
novel, and some-not many--already
known to us, and all very we'll done.
The chorus is given quite a prominent
part in the performance. The young
women really cannot sing very much,
but they are busy every minute, and one
forgets their lack of vocal volume whilst
watching their graceful gestures.
Of the principals, Fred Warren is
easily foremost, lot because the others
are not clever, but because he has a per-
sonality and method irresistibly funny.
As for the Mummy" he kept the audi
ence convulsed with laughter. He works
up to hat Mummy" representation
splendidly and Aattens out a bit after
