That was an earthquake" and the wo- man smiled again.
 "I'll leave 1t to this gentleman" said the resourceful Cud. Didn't your auto blow up about ten minutes ago?" And what could I do.
 And then we saw the baby, a wee mite, with its fists in It's mouth. The mother was very proud of 1t.
 Poor baby" said she, with a sigh. q guess he wonders what kind of a country he's come to. I had to carry him for almost day before they brought me here"
 Think of it, you delicately nurtured women, with babies never out of the nurses sight! This poor woman car ried her week old child out of a burn ing home, tramping the crowded streets until she dropped.
 Is 1t any wonder that there Is work for the Red Cross brigade in San Fran cisco?
 Then pr. Lanterman came back.
 'See here," said he, don't you over- look my chief of the commissary. Jack Adams Is the boy who looks after the larder for us. and we have all that the market affords. Jack got to prowling around the wards the other day. and he heard a sick woman say that she wanted some chicken soup. Jack went in our forty-five horsepower White, and when he came back he had three dozen chickens with him. | don't know where he got them. but it's way he has, and that night Cud Cook and Jack sat up all night picking those chickens. Jack went to sleep with his face In the feathers"

 How . Cheery Surgeon Quieted wo-

 On one of the Oakland boats a Red Cross man had found room to stretch himself out at full length, writes the San Francisco correspondent of the Kansas City Star under the date of April 26. This boy, for he was noth- ing more, was sound asleep. his head on his arms. A man came through the boat looking about anxiously. He spied the Red Cross man and In . minute he was at his side. Shaking him roughly. Get up. quick" he said. The boy turned over and, shaking his head burrowed Into his improvised couch.
 Don't bother me-" he muttered sleeplly, I'm all in."
 But there's a sick woman over here and we don't know where to take her." persisted the man. The Red Cross boy was on his feet in an instant and followed the man without another word. saw him ten minutes later helping to carry the sick woman of the boat.
 And speaking of the Red Cross, I am minded of the work which Dr. Lanter- man and his assistants at the relief hospital on Jefferson square In San Francisco are stlll doing. went up there again yesterday. found that great baseball fan and all around good fellow, "Cud" Cook, in charge. Cook may some day be one of the greatest surgeons in the west, but the men who know will never call him anything but "Cud." Ills other name Is Clarence.
 ''Fine business" said he with grin. Haven't had my clothes on for seven ty-two hours-been too busy. Did you feel that earthquake shock? Wasn't she a peachf It scared the women up here most to death. had to tell 'em 1t was an automobile blowing up. That's new one; they swallowed 1t.

far as known. no serious damage was
done. A Corona news of the cloud
burst was received by 'phone between
ten and eleven o'clock. and in short
time the water was pouring over the
tracks and down tile main street in a
torrent. La some places it was three
or four feet deep and with a swift
current. Has.v preparations were

City'S Expenses.
The following appears in The Demo-
crat, published at Anna, Union county,
Illinois, dated February 8, 1905.
"The voters of Anna will have an
opportunity of voting on the question
of license at the April election. One
hundred citizens, voters, making such
request. The council, however, seemed
reluctant to grant the request" The
reason given being that the city now
has debt of $7,400 exclusive of street
improvements and it seemed that the
city council is loath to take any action
that might possibly deprive the city of
the revenue derived from the saloons
1t seems that there was quite a good
deal of discussion upon the proposition
and The Democrat states SHOULD
license be defeated, the council will find
itself in very embarrassing situation.
In this case, there will not be enough

Indebtedness incurred and the property

under the state law to build and repair
their own streets and sidewalks" 1t
really seems too bad that a city of the
beauty and standing and moral senti-
county, that the property owners should
be taxed to bear it's just proportion of
taxation; it is really too bad that a
city council like that of Anna should
have to resort to the taxation of prop
erty to keep up it's improvements and
pay it's honest debts.
Oh, what a glorious thing it is in
this proud country of ours that we have
men with appetites for strong drink to
pay our taxes, to build our sidewalks,
to pave our streets. Oh, what glor-
ious thing it is that the wives of these

erty owners of Anna that their husbands
may spend their wages in the saloons
and that the children of these drunkards
should do without bread in order that
the property may not be taxed 'to

What glorious thing it is that these
children shall be deprived of education
because they haven't clothing to attend
our public schools kept up by taxation
to pay for $1,000 fire engines which the
city council has already bought upon

educated that the saloons may remain
in Anna, that the drunkards and
drunkards' wives and drunkards' chill
dren may bear the taxation and not the
property thus protected by these fire

Is it any wonder that the council was
little loath to grant this request of
$50 voters to submit to vote of the
people the question of whether the
property or the appetites and weakness
of men should be taxed to pay these ex-
penses? Judge We betwixt me and my
vineyard" saith God. But yet, there is
way to fix this tax upon the women
and children of Anna, for even after
the vote has been taken, should it be
found that majority of the people are
in favor of taxing the property and not
the weakness and appetites of men, still
the council could grant the license, put
in the saloons and let the property go
untaxed, and let the washerwomen
whose husbands are drunkards suffer
on and the children still do without
bread. What glorious country we

THE PUGlLlSTS
JACK O'BRIEN OFF TO EUROPE
May Pick Up a Few More English Dollar. - Other Fight
 News.

Philadelphia Jack OBrien is now on the ocean, bound for England. He sailed yesterday from New York without waiting for his relatives and friends to give him farewell recep- tion, and will be gone for six weeks.
 Very few persons were taken into OBrien's secret, as it was thought he intended to spend the remainder of the summer at Atlantic City.
 The announcement Of his departure will come as big surprise to the sporting fraternity. Philadelphia Jacks trip is ostensibly for his health and pleasure, although he may take on a couple of English heavyweights while abroad.
 OBrien's ocean voyage is believed to be preliminary to campaign in the ring. as this is his favorte method of starting out for course within the ropes He is known to be anxious to get Sam Berger in the ring again. but for twenty-round bout instead of six, as was the case before It is probable that Berger will be O'Brien's first opponent upon his return in Sep tember. there being rumors that the men are practically matched to fight twenty rounds in San Francisco next October.
