HAVE RIGHT OF APPEAL
Property May Go Over Head of
Board of Works

City Attorney Long, in an opinion
filed with the supervisors yesterday,
holds that owners of property have the
legal right to appeal to the board from
the action of the public works com
mission la accepting street work done
under private contract when the same
IS alleged TO have been improperly per-
formed. The decision was rendered in
the case Of property owners in Forty
seventh avenue between B and c
streets. They appealed TO the super
visors from the action OF the works
board in accepting and ordering pay
ment on street work alleged by the
owners pot to be up TO contract The
works commissioners contended that
their decision was final and that the
property owners could not lawfully
appeal TO the supervisors
Long says that the right to appeal
to the supervisors is not only permit
ted but imperative, as the courts have
repeatedly held that If property
owner IS dissatis fed with street as
sessment his remedy is to appeal to the
board of supervisors. and his failure
70 appeal estops him from complaining
OF any matters which were the sub
ject of appeal"

Day at the st, Francis hotel given by
Clement Bennett to the members of

Professor Stephens said that much
information had been collected and
carefully sifted- The report has been
completed, except for the history of
the earthquake itself, and is in type.
With regard to- thee earthquake Pro-
Iessor stephens said it would be neceS-
sary to walt until the full report of
the earthquake commission appointed
oy the Carnegie institute had ap-
peared.
The actual compilation of the his
tory Will be undertaken as the next
step, the collection of data having
been completed No further .investiga-
ton work will be done, except for a
few details
The material for the history of the
government and life of San francisco
during the weeks following the fire
is very full. The history of the relief
measures undertaken both in the city
itself and for the refugees can. never
be adequately completed on account of
the immense difficulty of getting to-
gether the details of fraterpal aid and
individual beneficence.
The book will be completed during

after. The work will contain many
diagrams illustrating the origin and

ORANGES AS MEDICINE. -

People are coming round more and
more to the true opinion that miners
drugs don't aid, but rather retafd, re-
coyery in case of sickness, and that the
only true medicine is to be found in
those tha. nature supplies so ireely-air,
water and food.
Foremost in value as medicine foods
are fiesh fruits, and none OF these rank
higher than oranges. Oranges or,
very rich in organic salts. They con-
tain high smount Of potassium, cal
cium and sulphur, surprising both
cows and human milk in this respect.
No other fruit has such high percen-
tage of sulphur. Orange juice contains
on an aveasge III per mile acid, which
accounts for the high amount OF potash
and lime which sre necessary for the
formation of natural fruit acids. Pure
orange Juice is an ideal remedy Tor
scrniuls, ricketts,, nervousness, and es-
pecialIy blood disease principally
scuryy). 1t is most valuable for the re-
duttion OF uric acid and other waste
mslt-r in the system, and therefore
both a preventive and curative food for
rheumatism and gout. Oonsumpt've
aud anemic people will also be greatly
benefited by diet of oranges on ac-
count of the high percentage OF blood
building salts they cont lin.
Lemons have the largest amount OF
magnesium lime of all the Irois. They
show the greatest acidity-7S pr mile.
Their juice is excellent for the prepare
! ton of btth fruit and vegetable salads
and should altogether replace vine-sr,
which is worse than alcohol, by depriv.
lug the blood OF its impt rtint organic
salts. Its medicinal qusnt lies are
highly appreciated in the cure Of uric
acid diseases. = Des Moines Reglst r

The total of arrests is not notably

used; first a general publication that
the licenses were due. then the issuance

making OF warrants, Each OF the
methods was partially eflcacious.
Some of the delinquents. in fact. per-
