TINY HOMES FOR HOMELESS

San Francisco's Method of Housing
 People Not Afraid of Earthquakes.
 q would rather camp in the ashes of San Francisco than live anywhere else," said woman refugee. That is the spirit that is rebuilding San Fran cisco, spirit that is the wonder and pride of the country, says the San Francisco Chronicle.
 This woman, with her family, after camping in tent for awhile. has nov cd into one of the cottages In Jeffer- son square. It is for these that the cottages are being erected by the re- lief commission-for people who will not run from earthquake. fire or other disasters, but who will stand and make a fight = for San Francisco. There are thousands of them In the city. They were burned out-lost ev- erything they had but the clothes they stood in. For few nights the sky was their roof and the earth their bed. but they did not run. Then they got tent. set 1t up and began 10 gather few things together-a rude table, chair or two. sometimes homemade. The men folks got work and the fami- lies dropped out of the bread line and began buying bedsteads. stoves. rugs. etc. until many of the tents were so crowded that there was scarcely room to move about.
 Now they are to have home. cozy little three room cottage. for which they are to pay Sc per month. and at the expiration of a year they will own the cottage and be free to move it wherever they choose With only s6 rent they can make good payments on q lot before the year expires.
 In Jefferson. Hamilton and sixteen other parks of our city are little cot tages being raised--the ''teeniest." cut est little doyecotes of houses one evef saw are nearing completion 10 make dwelling places for the homeless.
 The houses can be rented for that figure until Aug. of next year. The people who have paid rent steadily un- til that time will then own their homes, but they will be obligated at that time to remove them to some lot or ground outside the parks-any place they may wish or choose. that being at their own option and expense.

PRACTICAL REFORM MOVE.
Work of Men on Governing Commi
 tee of Peoples Lobby.

Work of Men on Governing Commit-
 tee of Peoples Lobby.
 Writing of the peoples lobby, the bureau to be established this winter to disseminate information regarding the good and vicious features of proposed congressional legislation, Samuel Mer- win of the editorial staff of Success Magazine, which Is promoting the movement, writes as follows in the November issue of the men chosen to form the governing committee:
 They represent great many differ ent interests In life. They approach the question from many different direc- tions. You will find on this commit tee men of mature experience and men of youth and enthusiasm. Not man on the list is crank or visionary. Not man has panacca to stuff down our throats. They are clean, square men of today, men of ideas. men of moral and ethical standards. They know that right is right and wrong wrong. They know that the congress man who slides joker into a bill Is a liar and sneak. They know that the senator or a speaker who trades in the necessities of hls constituents, who uses the power of high office to make money, Is pitiful rascal.
 The work before these committee men is simple and plain. It is not their office to play into the hands of this party or that It is their office to see that congress comes out of its subter- ranean channels, Its tortuous passages, It's hidden closets. and works in the light, where every voter In this land can see what Is going on all the time. The committee will not take sides on debatable questions. 1t will throw its white light into the dark corners. It will assume that all measures which shrink from that light are bad meas ures and will drag them out for your inspection.
 Hereafter the responsibility for ev- cry congressional action or inactlon will be fixed on individuals. Senators and congressman will no longer be able to dodge the responsibility that is theirs. In street language, again. they must stand for what they do. The ex- perience will be novel, but we trust 1t will be salutary. They will no longer be able to fool their constituents, for those constituents will have at hand cold, dispassionate, accurate statement of every mans record. A post card will fetch such statement. If the won't print 1t, the maga- zines will.
 I've have had our exposures, our our talk. Now the time has come to get down to business"

The skirt Is circular, with founce that is made in sections. the upper edge of each one being shirred to form its own heading. It Is shlrred at the belt, and the waist is shirred at its lower edge, so that the two combine to give the princess effect that is so much in style without the inconvenience that often comes of the entire gown.

 Somewhere down there the proper officials have got ready pair of hip high rubber boots of the presidential number and long rubber coat for Rooseveltian occupancy. Probably a rubber hat Is included in this outfit, in which the president will go through the great Culebra cut, personally in- speeding the. work already done and in progress.
 The Culebra cut is the narrowest part of the canal because 1t is the deepest. At that point rises the back bone of the isthmus or what may be called the Slamese. twin ltgament that connects North and South America. Our engineers are simply cutting through this great backbone. which is partly stone and partly earth, and down in the present channel is alto gether mud. The mud Is of a sticky variety and exceedingly wet in places. Through this the president will blow his way clad In rubber, and, to em- ploy slang term. there is no doubt that he will do great deal of rub bering on this tour of inspection.
 The great steam shovels, which fill a. big car with only three bites of mud, will attract hls attention, along with many other mechanical devices spe- cially patterned to undertake the her culean tasks presented.

The New Fall Goats.

Most of the new coats show an ab. sence of heightened collar. although some very extreme models have high collars of the old "storm" shape. The preponderance of the collarless coat is prophecy of the continual vogue of the ubiquitous neck ruche or boa. Many styles of these are being shown in the shops. as diversified as to mate rials and design as those shown early in the summer. The only change noted in the tulline ruff Is the more winter ish trimming of satin folds, edge every closely plaited fold. and supply long streamers with which to fasten them.

Az president of the United States MT. Roosevelt Is general over seer of the job. It Is Q big job. and the boss Is going down there to see how the work is getting along. Any man in his position would be expected to do the same thing, but in the case of Roosevelt the expectation Is foregone conclusion. A considerable section of the American public has been wonder ing how the president has managed to keep away from Panama thus long. He is the sort of man who wants to see things for himself when large measure of the responsibility is his. Mir. Roosevelt's readiness to find ont things for himself may be illustrated by an anecdote about another man.
 During the civil war General Joe Wheeler. Confederate cavalry leader. stood surrounded by his stan when an engagement was imminent. Not far in advance was a little hill crowned by clump of bushes General Wheeler scanned the hill suspiclously through his field glasses, and other officers did the same.

One Of the chief sources of dissatis-
faction with Great Britain among our
revolutionary forbears was the law OF
entail, which prevented the distribu-
ton Of estates, created a wealthy and
privileged class and deprived every
other class of hope and ambition.
Even Lord Bacon said that money vas
like a compost heap, which grew more
and more offensive until 1t was dis
tributed, but then produced every
where fertility and beauty. Entails
are not prohibited in the constitution
of the United States, states the Chi
cago Chronicle, but they are abolished
In Illinois and in almost every other
state either by constitutional provi-
Sions or by statute. It is the sense Of
the American people that they are
contrary to public policy and inimical
TO freedom. 1t is important that there
should be laws against entails, for
otherwise we should certainly have
them in this country. The instinct
which originated them in England CEN
turtles ago Is firmly fixed in human
nature and is as powerful among men
of large estates to-day as it ever was.
Whenever one of them dies and his
will is published, we discover that the
strongest desire he has in death was
to preserve his fortune intact and pass
It on unimpaired to his descendants.
He bequeathed the bulk Of 1t to as few
people as possible and even then puts
tt in the hands of trustees. 30 that 1t
may continue under one management
and retain its unity as long as pos
sible. If the law permitted it he would
bequeath it all in fee tail male, Just
as his ancestors did In England or
some other European country. The
evil of keeping a large fortune intact
IS Just as great when It is voluntary
as when It is involuntary, and the evil
all grows out Of the fact that the man
who inherits a fortune is an entirely
different character from the man who
makes 1t and that the fortune itself In
the hands of its founder plays an en-
tirely different part in civilization from
what It does In the hands OF his prog
eny.
