OF BARBARY COAST DENIZENS

United Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 1S.-When
the San Francisco reformers who
closed up the Barbary coast, start
ed on their campaign of purification
a few weeks ago, they thought of an
unusual thing-and they planned to
take care of the hundreds of women
who had been making their living in
the local tenderloin and who would
be Thrown out Of work." when the
tenderloin closed.
Accordingly a few individuals who
had been prominently identified with
the movement which finally forced
the police commissioners to put the
lid on the coast" made the rounds of
members of women's clubs, church
societies and other organizations to
whose demand the police commission
ers had bowed, asking positions for
such of the denizens of the district
who might want honest work at fair
wages.
Then the women were visited and
asked what they were willing to do.
OF the 303 women whose answers
were made public by the investigators
20 elected to continue in the old life
either in San Francisco or elsewhere;
80 were undecided what to do; 20
said they intended to leave the city;
one announced she was going to en-
ter an old ladies home; IL were will
ling to do anything; 26 said they
would do most anything that paid

would return to their former homes

PROFESSOR FROM JAPAN
INSPECTS COLORADO SCHOOLS

Colorado college and the city
schools were inspected by Prof Ku-
mali Yoshida of the Imperial uni
yersity Of Toxic, Japan, where he is
professor of pedagogics. He w~s
graduated from that university and
afterwards spent three years in
French and German universities. He
is touring the United States under
the Kahn travelling scholarship sstab-
lished by Frenchman.
He expressed himself as very much
impressed with Colorado collsgs, a.
well as with the local cottage school
system. The latter, he said, howsvsr,
would be impracticable in Jauan BE-
cause of the crowded condition Of the
country which would make the nscss-
sary land hardly available. He was
scrEck particularly by tiie number of
women here who pursue the higher
education and become teachers, re-
Inaining single. In Japan, he said,
few go beyond the secondary schools
and those who do usually marry soon
after finishing university courses.
Baseball, he said, was the great ath-
letic sport there and the boys are
just as good rooters as those here.

do was done, but in vain.
Mrs. Moss and her family are

sented the highest ideals of neigh
borhood and domestic life.
In addition to her husband, Mrs
Moss is survived by one daughter
Mrs. Ruby Smith, and son, who ha.

ABOLITION OF HOLIDAY IN
NAPLES CREATES DISGUST

NAPLES, Oct. 18.-The ever high
ly emotional, highly superstitious
Neopolitan population is today in the
deepest depths of the darkest despair
because of the abolition as a legal
holiday the Feast of Gennaro, its
patron saint. The robay decree will
go into effect tomorrow, and in the
mind Of the average Neapolitan there
can be nothing less in store during
the coming year than an eruption of
Mount Vesuvieus, the slipping of the
city into the sea, or the running short
of the macoroni supply-and possibly
all three.
The Feast of Gennaro comes on
September 10 but the government
considered it wise to wait at least
month after its last celebration be-
fore abolishing it. For several CEN
turies past on the occasion of each
celebration Of the feast day there has
taken place--or not taken place-ir
the Cathedral of Naples, the miracle
of the liquifying of the saints blood
If the blood liquified on that day il
meant year of peace, prosperity and
happiness for Neapolitans. If it die
not liquify-history doesn't record all
of the dire results which the Neapol
itans were convinced would befal
them for year thereafter.
The blood of the saint is preserved
in two small phials, and is due tc
liquify shortly after nine o'clock OF
the morning of the saints feast day
The demonstrations of the Neapoli
tans from the highest ,aristocracy
down to the lowliest street beggar
which attend this miracle-or it.
failure-have ever been the same
On each feast day the cathedral, fron
the earliest morning hours is packed
to suffocation. The crowd, awaits
with ever growing anxiety, hope ant
fear until 8 o'clock, when church of
ficials expose the phials showing tina
the blood is CONCEALED. Then begir
the prayers and petitions and erie,
of the superstitious crowd for th'
miracle. If it come quickly they e

quickly they go wilder with fear.
The average Neapolitan expresse
his joy by eating and the annual oc
currence or failure Of the miracle
has always been accompanied by gas
tronomic celebrations Of an appalling
nature. These in turn have neve
failed to be followed by highly in
creased mortality the day after, an,
