ONE HORSE MARKET
 CLINICS IN FRISCO
Owner Plies Lucrative Trade in
 Once ColOrful Field
--- - -

San Francisco, April 17 NP)- nation where the horse, sometim es referred to in this mechanical age as 'ono cylinder hay-burner," is making quiet but determined last stand.
 And there is man in San Fran cisco. where the horse still enjoys a degree of popularity as work animal, who makes approximately S12,000 yearly bartering horses, mostly draft animals.
 The generally accepted theory that the horse will soon join the Dodo and other relics of by-gone ages, is all 'hooey," according 10 Frank Gasparo, operator Of San Francisco's last remaining horse market.
 Business is just fair and always will be, on a moderate scale" Cas- paro will tell anyone taking the bother to ask him. Things are slack. of course.' he says, but con- ditlons never will get worse Some horses always will be needed. espe- cially in San Francisco where the nature of the city makes for nu- merous short hauls in drayage"
 And it is on the short haul one learns. that the horse shines and more than holds his own against gasoline propelled vehicles. On long hauls. making speed a worthwhile factor, the horse has no chance.
 Dash and Color Gone
 In San Francisco, Gasparo told the United Press, 15 drayage firms use approximately 1,Soo horses. Several resumed the use of horses after trying their hand at trucks.

Riding academies use aboot 200 additional head.
 It was faith that bought Gas paro continued success after the great horse auction centes faded away. Others quit but he reasoned that they've always got to have some horses" and time proved he was right.
 Few horses are needed now, as compared with the old colorful days when horses in this city were an intimate part of many mems lives.
 Then the auction or horse market was a teeming place, with bankers matching teams, farmers trading. work horses, dandies wanting the latest in buggy animals, seeking the short-coupled. showy Morgan, while sports anxiously sought road sters. with lots of speed and no lost motion.
 But today all the dash and color is gone, except at occasional horse shows. Farmers do not trade any to speak of and the buggy animal. except as show piece, has passed from the picture.

MAY TAKE
 MONTE CARLO OVER
Solution Suggested for Ending
 Ills Of Little Monaco

Nice, France, April IT R@Pre- dictions have been numerous along the Riviera that unless the June election in Monte Carlo goes to the liking of the discontented elements there. the principality of Monaco will. within six months, ask France to take over administration of the tiny realm.
 The trouble is between the 700 voters Of the country and the man. agement of the Monte Carlo casino.
 Newspapers along the French Riviera have given considerable space to the situation and have been quoting history to prove that Prince Louis little state is really lief" of France
 In the last year of the world war, on July IT. 1918, to be exact, a treaty was signed which gave France the right to intervene in the Monaco administration at any time that the principality might not be able to control its own affairs. That treaty was later in- corporated by the treaty of Ver- sailles. Other historic facts cited by the advocates of French anneya- tion might be summerized as fol- lows:
 In 1881 Honore II Grimaldi was granted the title of Prince of Mo naco after the district had been a zeal "a n ha 1t for nearly two hundred years. Ten years after getting his title Honore and Cardinal Richelieu signed a treaty by which Monaco went un- der the protection of Louis XIII. This pact was confirmed by the treaty of Utrecht in 1713.
 Next came the French revolution and in 1793 the French National Convention passed a bill uniting Monaco to France as part of the Apes Maritimes district of the re- public.
 The Napoleonic era saw Monaco buffeted about in the whirl of in- ternational politics, but in 1915 the principality was reestablished un- der protection of the kingdom of Sardinia. The troops of that coun- try garrisoned Monte Carlo until 1861 after the Treaty of Turin had again declared Monaco a part o. France. That ends the story until the world war.
 The value of the principality can be measured in dollars, of which there are hundreds of millions in- vested within it's narrow bounds. But there is also small harbor of 42 aces extent. land locked and with a depth of 90 feet at the en- trance and of 24 feet at the quay side.

STANLEY HUNDRED
 OPPOSED 10LINKS
Nay Not Approve Public Course
 on North End Tract

The possibility of there being some objections from A. W. Stanley. who retains the life use of the Stanley tract presented to the city for a park, against the use of part of that tract for public golf course, is sus- pected because of certain correspon- ! dence between MT. Stanley and Ar thur F.. Berg, clerk of the board of park commissioners.
 MT. Berg. who is one of the prime ! movers for public golf course, ad- nits having corresponded with Mir. Stanley. who now is in Europe, on this subject, but has declined to di- vulge the contents of the letters. Asked last evening if he intended to report on them to the park commits sion. Mr. Berg replied No, they are not public property. They are per- sonal correspondence between two individuals"
 The fact that residents in the vicinity of the Stanley tract have voiced their objection te a proposed airport in that section. and that few years ago the Chamber of Com merce dropped a move to create municipal motor camp in what was at that time an undeveloped section of Stanley Quarter park because Bel videre residents objected might have some significance on the fact that Mir. Berg. an enthusiast for golf course there. has chosen to make a mystery of MT. Stanley's at- titude.
 Due to the fact that MT. Berg and Dr. Henry R. Lash were the only two members of the park board to appear at postponed meeting called for last evening. the meeting was postponed for the second time until next Tuesday evening.
 A number Of young men interest ed in the development of athletic &C., tivities were present. including Alderman Frank Zapatka, who ap- peared in the interests of the Holy Cross baseball team.
 Superintendent Clyde Ellingwood submitted his annual report.
