San Francisco. April 9.-Many merchants
Of this city are becoming impatient with
the delay in providing for an independent
line of steamers between San Francisco
and Panama Traffic is now wholly under
the control Of the Pacific Mail Steamship
Company. Bates & Chesebrough. a local
shipping firm, offered TO establish in
dependent lire and to accept IS % per cent
Of the through freight rate instead of 40
per cent. as now allowed the Pacific
Mail, but Secretary Dickinson. after ask

1oocc0 tons OF cargo, replied that the
Panama Railroad could not undertake TO
give preference to 50.O00 tons Of westbound
cargo The local firm replied by wire that
it had not asked for preference. There the
matter rests for the present.
The Columbia Park Boys Club has given
daily entertainments this week for the
purpose Of raising a fund OF $4,000 for
buying a lot and building headquarters in
this city. The club was founded fourteen
years ago by Major Sidney s. PeiXotto.
brother Of the well known artist. and dur
ing this time four thousand boys. all from
poor families have received the benefit of
school and Eynnastic training. For ten
years summer camps have been MAIN

the San Francisco public schools. Peixotto
and forty-five Of his boys have just re
turned ffrom a years trip TO Australia,
where the boys band and athletes gave

The plans for the trunk sewer will
be reported favorably to the council
at the special meeting this evening
when the council sits as a committee
of the whole to consider the sewer
question. All of the preliminary work
which could be done in the engineer s
Office and in the sewer committee has
been completed and nothing more can
be done to further the work of build
ing the sewer until the council makes
some kind of move one way or an
other. Some kind of action of a
definite action should be taken this
evening. There have been too many
delays already, some of them possibly
unavoidable, in connection with this
project for the good of the city.
Either the council should take the
vote on the proposal to issue bonds for
the sewer at the last election which
resulted in favor of the issue by a BIG
majority as mandatory and go ahead
with the work or it should turn down
all proposals for the sewer absolutely
and prepare to defend the damage
suits which have been held off await
ing its decision on this question in the
courts. 1t is admitted that there is
doubt whether the state board of health
has the power to prevent the city main
tanning an open sewer in a thickly
populated district, but there is no
doubt that the board will be appealed
to in the event that the city refuses
to build the sewer and that if it has
the power to issue orders the city will
be compelled to keep all. sewage out
of Jerome creek. The lack of sewer
facilities in the outlying districts of
the city has undoubtedly been a serious
drawback to the growth of the city and
in justice to the property owners. who
have been waiting action blythe eoun-.
ell before making their plans. for
buildings in the suburbs some decision
should be made on the sewer question
at once. Anything is better than un-
certainty.

There are exceptions to every rule
and while law may be good law
and one that should be enforced gen
orally it occasionally happens that it
is highly desirable to get around it in
some way and the action taken by the
council in regard to the Office of poor
master is case in point. Alderman
Werner who has made really re-
markable record and has saved the city
much money since he took up the duties
of poormaster was ousted from office
by the operation of the law which for
bids a member of the council to hold
any other office created by that body
or one the incumbent of which is elect
ed by the votes of it's members during
his term as an alderman, but the coun-
Gil has found way by which Mr..
Werner can be poormaster in every
thing but name and this is move
which will be thoroughly approved of
by all of the people of the city who
are in any way appreciative of the
good work he has done in this office.
In the past whenever the council has
lodged law or openly refused to obey
one, as it has done in numerous in
stances which it is not necessary at
this time to refer to specifically, it's
actions were open to criticism, but no
one can see anything more in the re-
tention of Alderman Werner as poor
master than a desire to secure for the
city the services of a valuable public
servant. We do not suppose that AL
derman Werner cares anything for the
title he works under, anyway, and he
can be depended upon to keep up the
pace he set for himself just as well
now as before the council abolished
the office of poormaster and decided to
call his salary clerk hire.

It may have been due to the excite
ment of the picnic and the desire to
show the visitors to the city what
regular cutups we have in this big
town or possibly to the general under
standing that all regular rules We're
more or less relaxed for the day and
the police taken off the regular work
TO look after the crowds, but it is a
fact that there was more reckless drlv-
ing of automobiles and more racing on
the streets between machines Wednes-
day than has been noticl since the in
tention to enforce the speeding laws
was announced by the chief of police
and the complaints coming in this morn
ing were numerous and strong. With
so many people in the city unaccustom-
ed to the machines it is wonder that
there were not some accidents and the
fact that there were none of serious
nature was due entirely to good luck.
In spite of the laxity Wednesday,, how
ever, we still believe that it is the in
tention of the authorities to put some
check on the speeders, but it must be
admitted that if the authorities expect
the people to take any stock in their
promises of reform in this direction
they will have to begin pretty soon.

The Probation officer Finds
a Family None of Whom
Have Attended School
WOMAN OF 20 AS STUDENT

Kenosha county boasts of its schools
and the manner in which the laws re-
lating to attendance at schools are en-
forced, but within a few feet of the
limits of the city Probation Officer
James H. Karnes of the municipal
court has found family consisting Of
woman twenty years of age, boy
nineteen and two other boys one eleven
and the other thirteen and none of
them have ever attended school day
in their lives. The young woman who
is a comely girl has appealed to the
probation officer to make it possible
for her to secure a sufficient schooling
to make it possible for her to write
her own name. The children were
born and raised in this county and the
two younger boys are now sleeping in
barn north west of the city for lack
of better shelter. Probation Officer
Karnes took the case Of the young
woman up with a wealthy man of the
city and he has promised to make it
possible for the young woman to at
tend some district school in the county
when the new term opens. The girl
will be forced to start work in the
primary department as she admits that
she would not recognize her own name
if she saw it in print. 1t is regarded
as unusual that this family of four
children escaped the watchful eyes of
probation and truancy officers for SO
long time. Probation Officer Karnes
will seek to have the two younger boys
sent to one of the state institutions
for dependent and neglected children
in order that they may have chance
to be properly cared for and properly
educated.

The people in that neighborhood who
object to the presence of a circus on
what is known as the Orphan Asylum
tract" will have to take the matter up
with the city authorities. The city
has acquired what is believed to be a
good title to the property by purchas-
ing the tax receipts and the control of
the property has passed out of the
hands of the trustees. That being the
case the control of the property rests
with the city council and no one else
has any legal authority to lease it or
dispose Of it in any way. Presumably

ON TO SHEBoYGAN
Kenosha Fans to Make Trip to She.
boygan Next Sunday by Boat

The Sheboygan and Kenosha base
ball teams have arranged to play
series of five games during the next
few months and the first game of tbs
series will be played on next Sunday
afternoon. 1t is expected that many
of the Kenosha fans will desire to
make the trip to Sheboygan and the
management of the two teams have
arranged to make the day something
of holiday for the fans. To this
end the new steel steamer "F1ora NJ.
Hill'" has been engaged as an excur-
sion boat to take the crowd from Ke-
nosha to Sheboygan and it promises to
be one of the biggest outings ever
planned for Kenosha people. The
steamer is limited to six hundred pas
sengers and it is expected that the
tickets for the full number will be sold
by Saturday night. The fare for the
round trip including admission to the
game will be one dollar. The trip on
the lake to Sheboygan will be made one
of the big features of the day. The
steamer will run along the shore all the
way to Sheboygan so that there may
be no fear Of sea sickness among the
Kenosha fans. There will be an or
chestra on board and there will be
dancing on the upper decks during the
entire day.
The steamer will leave Kenosha at
1880 a. m. and returning it will leave
Sheboygan at $50 p. m. Refresh
ments of all kinds will be served on
board and there wifi be something do
ing every minute of the trip.
On the following Sunday a similar
excursion will be run from Sheboygan
to Kenosha for the second game of the
series.
The Sheboygan team is now leading
the Lake Shore League and it is re-
garded as one Of the strongest teams
in the state.
Tickets for the trip to Sheboygan
have been placed on sale at several
points in the city.

JUDGMENT FOR PLAINTIFF
Judge Randall Decides That Kline is
Entitled to Damages From Ry. Co.

Judge Clifford E. Randall in the
municipal court handed down a decision,
this morning ordering judgment in
the suit of Enoch Kline VS.. the Mil
waukee Electric Railway and Light
Company and if the order of the court
is sustained by the supreme court Kline
will get $4,000 allowed him by the jury.
Before ordering a judgment for the
plaintiff Judge Randall denied a half
a dozen motions made by the attorneys
for the defendant company. 1t is
pretty certain that the case will be
taken to the supreme court. Kline was
assaulted on an electric car near Ber-
ryville nearly two years ago and he as
serted in his suit against the company
that he failed to get proper protection
from the conductor in charge of the
train. Charles Rose, who assaulted
Kline is now serving term in the
state prison.

The law against peddlers working
without license was well enforced on
the day Of the Woodmen picnic. The
men who had concessions and who paid
in their money for license took good
care that their competitors gave up
the same tribute to the city for. the
privilege of doing business on that day
and it would be a good thing not only
for the merchants, but for the peo-
pie Of the city if there was as close
check on the unlicensed peddlers
every day in the year. The presence
of these people in the city is unde-
sirable in every way and if the license
law was more rigidly enforced it would
undoubtedly keep some of them out.
The business men of the city. hesitate
to take this matter up for fear that
their motives will be misunderstood
and it be said of them that they fear
the competition of the peddlers, but
they could do the people of the city
no greater service than to see that
every peddler paid his license.
