San Francisco, Dec. 16.-As the re-
suit of the completion Of the Bay
Shore cutoff by the Southern Pacific
railroad, and the opening of this new
route into San Francisco on Decem-
ber s. peninsula towns and cities are
developing at rate Of progress that
makes California real estate booms
of the past seem comparatively insig-
nificant. The cutoff for all practical
purposes has moved a score of penin-
sula towns II minutes nearer to San
Francisco.
San Mateo, and Burlingame, its
neighbor, have doubled their popula-
tion in the last is months in anticl-
patton of improved transportation.
Three hundred houses have been
erected in these towns in the last 12
months at an aggregate cost of ST.,
100000. The improvement cost the
Southern Pacific $70OO.OOO. but has
already added three times that sum
to real estate values in the territory
i benetits.
The extraordinary building record
of which San Mateo's is only an ex-
ample, receives fresh impetus every
day. At this coast town there Is
building a 100000 hotel, and a great
mansion for William II. Crocker.
The hotel is intended to meet$he de-
mands Of city business men, as well
as tourist pleasure seekers.
The bay towns around San Fran
cisco. including Oakland, Berkeley
and Alameda, are also feeling the i'm
petus of boom times as a result Of
the beginning of the Southern Paci-
fics plans for the electrification Of
It's suburban lines. Work has al
ready been begun on the central sta
ton at Fruitvale, which will be the
center of power supply for these lines.

TRUSTS UNCLE SAW
ONE MAN HAS S25,OOO
IN MONEY ORDERS
Spokane Postmaster Tells Interesting
Story Of One Mans Purchase of
Bundle of POstoffice Money Or
ders-NIade an Investment of S25,-
600 i'm $50 Orders at 500 Each.

A Spokane paper tells the follow
ing story of a Spokane man having
$25, 900 in postoffice money orders in
his possession for safe keeping:
More concerned in the security of
che principal than in the increase Of
his capital, one man in Spokane is
holding $50 money orders, each for
500 and amounting to $4,000. pay
able to himself at the postoffice.
"a good many people use the
money order department of the post
office as a depository for their mon
ey by buying money orders payable
to themselves" said Postmaster Mil
lard T. Harrison yesterday.
TN many instances these are peo-
pie coming to Spokane, and they
take this means of transferring their
capital l know of one case where
man who came here from the sound
sent $4,000 payable to himself in
Spokane. The largest money orders
are for 800 and cost 80 cents each,
or SO for $1,000. so that the purchase
of the $4,000 worth Of money orders
cost SIS.
'If every one was to use the post
office as a depository the effect
would be serious. Every dollar de-
posted in the postoffice by means
Of money orders means that much
absolutely Withdrawn from circula-
ton. because the office must hold the
amount represented by the outstand-
ing orders in readiness for their pay
ment.
1.-The money order business can not
b. transacted in checks or clearing
house certificates. We can not ac-
eept anything but United States coin
or currency in issuing money orders,
and we have to be prepared to pay
them with the same kind of money.
''There are usually about $4,000
worth of money orders outstanding,
and that amount Of money has to
be kept on hand all the time for their
redemption. Money orders are re-
quired TO be presented for payment
within one year, and most of the peo-
pie who use the office as depository
take the full time.
THE business of the office, instead
Of decreasing during the financial
stringency shows an increase. The
increase is normal and there is prac-
tically no change from the usual state
of the money order business. The Of

Entered the Ministry,

Mother Hen after her brood Of nine
had obtained 4 firm hold on life called
them together to counsel them on the
duty they owed to one another, but
particularly on the duty the eight girls
owed TO the one boy of her family. The
girls were to be mindful of Willie's
rights, to call him when a choice NOR
sci was unearthed, to prevent him
from quarreling ard TO bring him back
when he wandered from the barnyard.
One day during sisterly quarrel
brother disappeared. His sisters had
seen the minister enter the farmhouse
on a visit, but thought uothing Of It
until they saw poor Willie meet his
death by anax.
CONSERVATION ensued, and council
was held to devise way to meet the
mother hen and to break the news to
her.
"Cluck. cluck. cluckety. cluck, cluck,"
said Mother Hen, breaking in on the
council Of the sisters.
"Clucket-. eluckety, cluck,' answer
ed the sisters In one voice, which trans
lated means, where is your brotherT
and they answered, "The minister Wis
tied the house. and brother got it In
the neck"
Mother Hen was downcast, but she
quickly recovered her composure and
said:
"Cluckety, cluckety,. cluck; cluck,
cluck, cluckety," which is: 81 am sorry
for poor Willie. l rejoice, however,
that he has entered the ministry, for
he would have made a poor layman."-
