EDWARD pAYsoN WESTON IN WALKING oosrUME

A Medicine For Human Ills.
But Edward Payson Weston. who
took part In many Of these long dis
lance walking matches and won them,
has stuck to walking right up to the
present day as the serious business Of
his life. A year ago last May. Just

In spite OF bis slxty-eight years and
bis gray hairs, he started from the
Philadelphia city hall and walked to

Mr.. Weston. then. Is no crank. He
enjoys walking moderately = half a
hundred miles day for him-but he
does not particularly enjoy walking a
hundred miles a day, as he has done
several times. He has made his hun
dred miles from time to time Just to
prove to the world what plenty OF leg
exercise and temperate living can do
for man, and he does these terrific
pedestrian stunts as a matter OF duty.
Thus by his system of natural phys.
tcal culture he teaches morality and
temperance.
Now, In his seventeen year, Mr..
Weston has set out to duplicate and
even Guido his walking performance
OF forty years ago. when he was a
youngster OF thirty. He walked from
Portland to Chicago In 1867. making
the distance in % days aud % hours.

half a dozen blocks. Walking Is dodg.
ed by most Of us as II II were a calam-
lily. According to Weston. 1t Is bless
ing. This man set out in his youth
with the assumption that walking Is
a mighty good thing for the human
race, and he has devoted his life, con
sistently and candldly, to the self i'm
posed task OF substantiating his the
DRY. AS result he will leave to man
kind when he finally dies a series Of
''records" without parallel in pedes-
trianism.
When Weston was youth Of TWEEN
ty-1ve he conceived the notion that it
was possible for human being to
walk a hundred miles in twenty-four
hours without physical injury. Forth
with he walked from Philadelphia to
New York. ninety-six miles from city
hall to city hall. In % hours and
40 minutes. That was away back
in 1868, when many thousands OF
men were doing great deal OF walk
ing In the south and also doing great
deal of kicking because the walking
made them weary, not to speak of foot
sore. An army Of men with Weston's
walking powers could have marched
fast enough to outmaneuver any en-
envy Of ordinary marching ability. But
there was only one Weston.
In those days Weston was a pedes-
trian by profession. Pedestrianism
was something Of a calling" like
prize fighting, wrestling and kindred
endurance sports. For about twenty
Ave years professional walkers -four

Judge De Haven, now of the United

usual results which as between the par
ties to it flow from reversal of the
judgment, to wit, the restoration of all
rights which had been taken from him

of the reversal of a judgment is to leave

"If the prosecution proposes to base

vides that when, and so long as the

they must know that the finding of the

of whether the mayor is temporarily
unable to perform his duties is not
binding upon Mayor Schmitz. Such a
finding is renewable by the courts, and
If based upon insufficient e, 4dence the
action of the board would be null and

SAN FRANCISCO, June 1.-THE
case Of Vice President Louis Glass Of
the Pacific States Telephone and Tele-
graph company, accused by the grand
jury of bribing ten of the supervisors
to vote against awarding a franchise
to the Home Telephone company, was
called for trial in Judge Lawlor's de-
partment of the superior court this
morning and was continued without
motion to next Friday.
Judge Lawlor said:
at have already stated that this court
will dispose of all proceedings pre-
liminary to trial in all this class of
cases before trying any of them, and
as the defendant Glass was the first
of the various defendants to join the
issue his trial will be given precedence
over those of others. By next Friday
I should be able to estimate how much
time will be required for each of the
several trials and set the dates for
their commencement.

if the prosecutions program is carried
out, will be to demand the resignation
of practically the entire Schmitz ad-
ministration, whose places will be filled
with reform agents as fast as the va
cancies are created. Unless disturbed
by the courts the new regime will en-
dure until next January, the time for
the induction of the officers to be
chosen at the municipal election next
November.
Mayor Schmitz, convicted last week
of the crime of extortion, remains
prisoner in the city and county jail.
He is to be sentenced by Judge Dunno
June 27. His lawyers maintain that
his incarceration does not disable him
from performing the duties of office,
and they say today's. action OF the
board of supervisors is revolutionary
and illegal. 1t is understood they Will
test the latter claim by instituting
quo warranto proceedings, applying for
writ of review, or asking for an in
junction restraining Gallagher from
assuming the mayoralty.
The resolution declaring the mayor 8
chair vacant and appointing Supervisor
Gallagher to fill it was adopted after
fight on the floor. 1t was opposed
by Supervisors Tveitmoe and ONefll.
1t was voted for by twelve supervisors,
each Of whose confessions to bribe-
taking is transcribed in the grand jury
records. rs none of these has been in
dicted for bribe-taking the general un-
derstanding is that they are to escape
punishment if they continue to do the
bidding of the district attorney and his
prosecuting associates. No denial of
this has been made by Mr.. Langdon,
Mr.. Heney or Mr.. Spreckels.
Gallagher Doesn't Vote
Supervisor Gallagher refrained from
voting. Supervisor Mamiock left the
room when the resolution came UP.
Supervisors Kelley and Davis were abb
sent from the session. The following
supervisors voted no: O'Neill, Tveit-
moe
excused from voting, l. absent, g.; total,
IS. The feature of the incident was a
caustic speech by O'Neill denouncing
the resolutions and branding Gallagher
(who presided) as a man unfit to sit in
the mayors chair. He alluded to the
confessed ringleadership of Gallagher
in bribe-taking.
This was regular meeting OF the
supervisors and 1t was called for
o'clock, but the clock said 5:25 when
they came to order. Supervisor Gal
lagher was in conference privately with
District Attorney Langdon for nearly
an hour while caucus of the other
thirteen ''tractables" waited in an

Within the past few days. ten new
cases Of typhoid fever have been re-
ported to the Board Of Health, which
makes a total OF about fifty cases now
in the city. While August is the worst
month for this disease and more cases
are expected than in any other month
in the year there is still some fear of
the sickness becoming generally preva-
lent throughout the city and in con-
sequence the advice of City Bacteriolo-
gist Robin 20 boil all drinking water
before using, should be followed.
Dr. Robin warns the public not only
to boil drinking water at this time, but
altogether until the new preliminary
filter system at Sixteenth and French
streets is placed in operation. This
filtration system while not expected ia
make the water absolutely pure, it will
made it 75 per cent pure.
