| to the only means left, viz: by dyna-
hitting of buildings of every description
| IN advance of the flames, but their
| efforts were unsuccessful as the fire
gathered strength and Roadway every
foot, until it became virtually ire
sistible
The principal fires started from the
water front on the East, and what is
XXI own as the Mission in the Western
district, which, after while, met each
other, adding additional force to the
general confagration, so that at one
time it seemed as if the city was DOOM
ed to entire destruction; finally it was
decided to make a stand at Van Ness
Avenue, which is the widest avenue IN
the city, and at Dolores street in the
Mission, another wide street where
the fire fighters largely concentrated
their efforts; this proved a wise move
as in a short time the flames were
checked, and to a great extent their
direc ton was controlled. After this tn
finishing of the work was comparative
ly an easy accomplishment.

CHARGE OF VAGRANCY FALLS
FLAT
Former Familiar Figure In Police
Court Shows That He Is Maxi
ing Serious Effort to
Lead a Better Life

Proof that he had tried to do right
was forthcoming in large punches for
Tom Carson charged with vagrancy,
Yesterday, and as result he was given
ms liberty by Police Judge Austin on
MS agreement to return to theIhome of
Dr. f. 70. Yoakum 6026 Echo street.
where he has been employed during the
last month, and remain there under the
physicians care
carson was arrested Monday morning
by Policeman Pautz. The officer ex-
piained that he had known Carson for
several years and that he was a man
who seldom worked and that he had
been arrested on the same charge be-
tore and was an associate of drunkards.
Carson had summoned a large num-
Der OF witnesses to prove he had been
regularly employed for some time past
and had even gone of his own free will
to DIR. Yoakum's to be cured of drink
ing.
Bob Davis, a real estate dealer of
5S18, Pasadena avenue, was one of his
witnesses. He told of having seen Car
son at the physician's home during the
last month and explained that he had
formerly been an inmate there.
Il know Carson to be an honest,
hard working man." he said, land feel
sure that If he continues to remain at
the home of DIR. Yoakum he will in time
lose all taste for liquor.
DIR. Yoakum conducts q home for
men who drink. 1t costs them nothing,
as 1t Is run on purely charitable lines.
Each man who goes there must work
and is given his board and lodging for
his labor. 1 had been a prisoner in this
court fifteen times on the charge of
drunkenness before I went there. That
is year ago, and 1 have not been
here since.''
DR.. Yoakum was then called and
agreed to take Carson back if he would
agree to go. Carson was then put on
the stand and at once agreed to return
with the physician and promised to
remain with him if given his freedom.
Permission was granted by Justice Aus
tin and he left the court in company
with his protector.
