SAN FRANCISCO, April 23.-The
new San Francisco which will rise from
the ashes of the old was in its first
stages of rebuilding today.
After five days of confusion and al
most superhuman effort on the part of
the citizens of Californias metropolis,
the great task of sheltering. feeding
thousands, complete order has been re-
established and attention turned to the
future.
Throughout the great business dis
trict, where the devastation of the
flames was the most complete, walls
were being razed, buildings that had
not disintegrated before the intense heat
were being inspected with the view to
reoccupancy and even ground was be-
ing cleared for the immediate construc-
tion of some sort of a building in which
to resume business at the earliest pos
sible time.
Confidence Restored
In short, confidence has been restored.
The assurance of the insurance COM
panies. the measures taken by the fl
nancial institutions the prompt and re-
assuring word that has reached the
business men of San Franeisco from
eastern financial centers-Dll these
things went to clear away ahy feeling
of uncertainty that might have existed
in the minds of the timids that San
Francisco would not again be what it
was-the great center of population and
business of the Pacific coast.
The general situation temporarily suf-
fered a setback early today because of
the chilling rain which fell in the late
hours of last night and during the
early forenoon today upon thousands
protected only by canvas coverings and
even less impervious shelterings.
Suffering Only Temporary
While the rain caused considerable
suffering for the time being the condi-
tions were quickly ameliorated by the
prompt action of every relief committee
doing duty as well as by the voluntary
acts of householders wherever it was
possible to accommodate them.
The people were fed today in thor
oughly businesslike and systematic
manner.
From the water front. where the
boatloads of provisions were stocked
was an endless procession of carts and
drays carrying food to the scores OF
sub-stations established throughout the
city and the parks AT these stations
food and drink, comprising bread, pre-
pared meats, canned goods, milk and
limited amount of hot coffee was served
to all those who applied About 1900
tons of provisions are being moved
daily from the water front.
Large supplies of blankets, Jennings
and other material to provide coverings
for those who have been scantily SUD-
piled heretofore are reaching the supply
stations rapidly.
Barracks Completed
Barracks have been completed at sew
eral points and in these many family
have found comfort and shelter against
the inclemency of the weather. The sit
uation in the congested districts such as
Golden Gate park and the various pub
lie squares throughout the city have
been considerably relieved by the de-
parture of many people for points on
the other side of the bay, while the
number of people leaving the city is
nothing to the vast crowds that packed
the ferryboats during the previous two
days, the number was sufficiently large
to satisfy the relief committees that

Mrs Craigie's Address.

An amusing story of the late Mrs.
Craigie, the noted novelist was told
the other day at the Authors. club in
New York.
When Mrs. Craigie was in America
last year, said the editor, "she was
invited to make an address at a certain
meeting. She accepted the invitation,
but her name, through some oversight,
was put far down on the program, and
worse than that, the chairman, a
rather stupid person, introduced be-
fore her some speakers who were not
on the program at ALL"
SIN short, it was close on to II
o'clock when the chairman, with a
pleasant smile, bowed and said:
"Mrs. Craigie, the eminent author
of 'tSome Emotions and a Moral" will
now give US her address,
Mrs. Craigie rose and said, calmly:
"My address is No. Sc Lancaster

Deserved Furnishing

Farmer Dolittle's land was bad; his
methods were infinitely worse. He
never liked work himself, and the ex-
ertion of seeing that others did it ap-
peared to be too much for him.
Consequently it would have puzzled
an expert to say exactly what was
growing in any one field of that partic-
nlar farm.
One day neighboring farmer was
passing, when Farmer Dolittle hailed
him.
"Hayseed!" he shouted. '.Neighbor

A Good Story.

A good story was told by travelling
man at the depot one day recently.
Up on the 500 road this travelling man
was waiting for train. when he APP
preached the lord OF the station and
asked what time the train would 60 to
Minneapolis, not knowing its time of
departure.
CAV, you've got lots of time" snarl-
ed the agent.
''But that was not what I asked, y
said the man. 81 wanted to know
what time the train would leave"
"Well, you just hang around and
you'll find out" was the snappy reply.
So the man hung around for some
time, until the train came. Then when
the agent was busy taking off baggage
and attending to other matters he ap-
preached him and tapping him on the
arm said, partner, 1 just want to give
you little information"
"Well, what is it?"
"According to the watch, this train
appears to leave for Minneapolis about
11:15; if any one else should enquire
after this you will know, if you re-
member"
The ill-mannered agent went several
feet up into the air, but the travelling
man escaped by boarding the traiu.
A day Or two after the agent re-
ceived from the general offices of the
road neatly typewriter time card
showing when trains left his station,
with the information that he was re-
quested to study the card, and so be
able in future to inform passengers
when trains left his station.
Moral-It costs nothing to be civil
and really takes less time than to be
ill hammered.

His Little Joke.

When the big, bronzed husband tim
idly dipped his spoon in tiny saucer
of breakfast food the little wife became
alarmed.
'HWhy, Henry" she said uneasily
:'you told me that camping trip would
give you a good appetite"
"Wen, it did, my DEAR" assured
Henry.
"But-but you said you would have
an appetite like horse, and here you
sit only eating wee bit Of oats!'
"Well-er-th the kind of an APP
petite horse has, isn't it, dear? Did
you ever hear of horse eating beef
steak?"

hat and grinned to himself all the way
down to the office. Chicago Daily

When Annoyed.

The Kaiser, when annoyed at any
thing, has habit of tugging at the
lobe of his ear. While in England at
the time of Queen Victoria's funeral
he received telegram and opened it
in the presence Of one of his small
cousins, boy of six. Something in
the telegram did not altogether please
his Majesty, and he at once began to
tug at his ear. The little fellow
noticed it.

because I am annoyed, my lad. -

are annoyed?" asked the boy.

The conveyances at Asbury Park were
practically small floats. and in most In
stances were built upon a baby carriage
as the foundation. In many cases the
carriages were trimmed to represent
huge flower in the center of which the
baby head appeared; but in some In
stances the floats were OF much more
ambitious character, and showed whole
kitchens or village FORCES with num-
Der of children dressed as cooks or black
smiths. A number of the little tots
dressed in fancy costumes had no con-
veyance, but walked at their nurses side
