A FROG TO THE RESCUE.
CWoman's Home Companion.)

One day a couple of my friends were
sitting on the river bank when they heard
the cry of a frog in distress. Following
the direction from which the sound came,
they discovered a snake in the act of swal-
lowing a frog.
Just then another frog, evidently at
tracted blythe distressing cries of its mate
in jeopardy, hoped up to the scene of ac-

enemy; then leaped forward, seized the

The water quickly poured between the

CHALLENGING THE JUDGE.

(BoSton PoStD
THE late Judge j. l. Clark Hart" said
a lawyer of Philadelphia. yves one day
relating TO me some of his odd expert
ences on the bench.
He said that certain man was about
to be tried in the common pleas and
showed a great disposition to challenge
the jurymen.
Evidently the prisoner knew all about
the right to challenge, and evidently he
felt that the more challenging he and his
lawyer did. the better the case would go
for him.
FINALLY. Though. his challenging came
to an end. He announced that the jury
now satisfied him.
Your challenging is all over? We can
now go on?' said the attorney for the
prosecution, with a smile.
" The jury is sll rigl t. said the pris-
oner. hurriedly and anxiously. but / want
to challenge the judge. I've been convict
ed under him several times before and it's
more than likely he's prejudiced against
me.

PROPERTY OWNERS FAVOR
RUNNING GEARY STREET CARS
Old Company Is Willing to Start Up
on Franchise for


At meeting of the downtown property
owners at the office of NJ H. de Young
yesterday morning Director Robert F. Nor
row of the Geary-street road said there
would be no trouble Id putting the road
in commission within two weeks, as the
powerhouse and tracks were not irreparabIy
damaged. He said his company would not
go to the expense of getting things in
shape unless the city should guarantee it
the right to operate for year.
3 1t was the sense of the meeting that 1t
was great injustice to the public not to
have the road put In operation by some
body. AS the city is without the funds to
carry on the work 1t was believed that the
owners of the road should be encouraged to
restore normal conditions.
Attorney Samuel knight favored the is
suing of map by the association, with
colored notings to show standing buildings,
proposed street alterations and like infor-
nation
1t was thought that the proposed widen
ing OF Montgomery avenue would drive the
commercial and financial centers from the
old location, interfering with many inn
portant blocks. A committee of ten was
appointed to keep an eye on the action of
the Supervisors in matters of interest to
the downtown property-owners.

MAYORS OFFICE. May 20. 1906.
ITO the people of San Francisco
Six weeks have passed since our city
was injured by the earthquake and
fire, and the same feeling of courage
and fortitude, determination and per-
severance is found exhibited by our
citizens to an extraordinary degree.
We have, however, a great trial before
us which requires the most kindly
spirit toward one another and the
greatest effort toward leaving the past
behind us and looking forward only to
the successful rebuilding of our city,.
.Unfortunately at this time there are
some who for mere personal and po-
litical reasons are trying to stir up
discomfort in the hearts of our poor,
afflicted ones instead of sympathy and
encouragement.
'.rhe question of the stoves on the
streets has been the subject of criti-
tcism by some of these unjust critics.
When we realize that there were about
$4,000 chimneys to be inspected and
also the inability to secure brickma-
sons enough to repair these chimneys
before an inspection could be made 1t
can readily be seen that the task be-
fore the. authorities for the passing
Upon the inspection of chimneys has
been a colossal one.

NEW INTRENcHING TOOLS.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.-The Navy
Department has authorized Brigadier
General Elliott, commanding the Ma
rine Corps, to supply marines with 1000
combination intrenching tools of a new
type which General Elliott has Just
devised. The tool has a handle about
two feet long, to which is hinged
shield-shaped blade, This blade folds
against the handle in such a manner
that it can readily be carried under
belt and it can be SO adjusted that it
stands at right angles to the handle
and is available for use as a hoe or
pick. The blade also can be adjusted
so as to be used as a spade
