LAWYER MAKES CAR STOP
PASSENGERS REFUSE FARE

Refusals to pay fare unless seats
are given are many. Inspectors and
special police have been stationed at
transfer points to bluff men who had
refused TO pay fare and defied the
car crews. Not very much progress
was made in this direction, as it was
almost impossible to get carmen to
point out the delinquent passengers
The Devisadero-s line was tied
up at o'clock by a broken trolley
wire The repair wagon was sent to
fix up the break, and a string of cars
was delayed until the wire could be
repaired. The traffic in lower Mission
street was tied up several times during
the day, and many cars had to be
switched back. Passengers transfer
ring from the switched back cars to
cars ahead on the line or cars of other
lines were obliged to pick their way
through the deep mud across the un-
cleaned streets The Valencia line was
in trouble during the evening" and at
5 O'Clock was unable to handle the
traffic. Many persons destined for the
Mission were obliged to take Haight
street and Castro street cars and walk
over from Height and Market or Four
teenth and Market. or walk all the
way from the ferries or the wholesale
district to their homes.
At o'clock the Fillmore-street
cross-town line was in much trouble
on account of difficulty in mounting the
hill between McAllister and Waller
streets. Cars had to wait for those
ahead to crawl slowly up the hill, and
on account of the misty rain that was
falling the rails were slippery and
frequently the overloaded coaches
stopped midway in the block and the
wheels spun aimlessly around on the
unsanded tracks. Time was lost go
ing down hill, as motormen feared to
make speed, the slippery rails making
it necessary not to. allow the cars to
get any headway.
The Haight-street hills caused more
tieups, Three and four cars at a time
had to be held at the bottom of the
hill while a trip to the top of the hill
was made from Market street by a
packed car ahead of them. Many pas
sengers in the awaiting cars got out
and stood alongside of the tracks until
the car ahead made the trip skyward
successfully, being afraid that the
motormen would lost control of the
brakes and let the hill-climber come
laundering down on the awaiting car
with it's burden of long suffering hu-
manity.

Unless the work is done Immediately
the car company will have this repav-
ing done by it's own track crews. This
order means that Market, Valencia.
Haight, Hayes. upper Mission and Nc
Allister streets will be put in good
order from track to track without fur
ther annoying delay.
The company admitted yesterday
that it had bitten off more than it
could chew when it ripped up all the
streets 1t made confession that 1t
had erred in calculating on available
labor and material The streets had
been Unfortunately torn up and then
it was found that the work could not
be finished in the calculated time.
More trouble was experienced on the
Kentucky and Connecticut streets line.
Early in the morning the cars were
overcrowded by men on their way to
work at the Risdon and Union iron
works. and there was much grumbling
and some threats of a demonstration
similar to that which took place on
Wednesday morning, when a car was
stoned by some apprentice boys and
threatened with destruction by older
persons, who were delayed twenty min
utes in getting to work, and conse-
quently were locked in pay for lost
time. Henry Heitenkamp, an iron
works employe, was thrown from a
Kentucky street car near the Union
Iron Works and rolled in the muddy
street. His head was slightly cut, but
otherwise he did not suffer Injury.
Mrs. Alice Kemper, who said she was
from Oakland, was, according to her
statement. thrown from a Sutter-street
car at Fillmore and Sutter streets when
she tried to board it at that point She
was not hurt, but her clothing was
much soiled in the tumble

AN INTERESTING TRICK.
II lie Performed With Piece of
String and Ring.

One of the most interesting string
mysteris is the marvellous ring trick. :"
Having tied the ends of your string
together, pass it double through fin.
ger-ring, and ask some one to hold the
ends upon their two forefngers. You
may now proceed to remove the ring
without cutting the string or releasing
the fingers, which seem to hold it Sc
curely.
First pass the string a second time
around one of the fingers which hold
it. then drawing the loop thus formed
toward the opposite hand as shown in
the figure, pass 1t over the string on
the other finger until it lies in the po-
sition of dotted line b; then with your
two forefingers catch up at a and one
of the strings holding the ring and
sliding your fingers from each other,
quickly slip from the ends of your
companions fingers the part of the

TOTO, THE WICKED PRINCE.
How He Was Finally Cured of HIS
Naughty Ways.

Prince Toto was probably the
naughtiest little prince there ever was.
He kicked and scratched and bit most
every one who came near, and became
a terror to his nurse and others who
waited upon him.
OF course, he was given nearly
everything he wished. When he could
MT have what he desired, he became
unusually vicious and disagreeable.
During bad weather he was at MS
very worst. Then he would go up 10
the roof of the castle, where was al
ways stationed a royal astronomer,
and command that official to have
good weather sent Immediately. Wnen
the dignified gentleman would explain
that that was impossible the naughty
prince would pull the astronomer
beard or throw away his cap.
Things came to such pass, how
ever, that complaints began to reach
the king himself The king was very
much shocked at these reports of the
princes misbehavior.
He at once issued a proclamation
offering a great reward to any one
who would rid his son of such evil
traits.
For time no one appeared, but at
last there came to the king an I'M
couth giant, with great long nails,
tusks for teeth and long, pointed ears.
Il am a genie sent by the good
fairy who watches over your king
DOM" he explained, in answer to the
| look of wonderment upon the king S
face. Have no fear; l shall take
good care of your son and return him
to you completely cured"
So the king finally permitted the
giant to take the prince with him.
The prince wasn't the least bit will
ling to go, but whether he would or
no, he was forced to seat himself
upon the back OF a great goose, the
giant bestrode another, and in a Sec
onds time they were flying swiftly
through the air. Toto hung on for
dear life, fearful every moment that
he would take bad tumble.
Don't feel so much like kicking
and biting and scratching now, eh?''
asked the genie.
After a while they landed near a
great lake. Strange to say, across this
AXE there stretched a very narrow
lank.

few days ago, he came upon a hollow
in the log and an oyster can in the
hollow. In the can he found 800 silver
dollars. and he went about shouting
with glee for about an hour or SO,
Then the money was taken down n
the bank and found to be counterfeit.
