The study of the French language is booming in San Francisco, for through the efforts of I’Alliance Francaise, the Whit- tier, the Washington and Le Conte pri- mary schools can now proclaim “Ici I'on parle francais,” which, as every one knows, means “French spoken here.” The Alliance is a national French insti- tution, incorporated by decree of the Pres- performers were professionals, who do- nated their services. 3 5 R.

Miss Anna Daly gave a recitation, *“Wild | Roses,” as_well as_John Vance Cheney’s “Kitchen Clock.” Mr. Mann’s banjo solos leased the audience, and Miss A. Bouly’s fine voice exhibited in the solo, *‘A Bird From O’er the Sea,’”” won her an encore, to which she responded with “The Last Rose of Summer.” Mrs. A. M. Mann played pianoforte solos by Rubinstein and Cho- pin. Frank M. Kelly sang a barytone solo, and the clever little child actress, Edna Good, delighted the audience with | her songs and recitations. " POTRERO BLASTING. Lives Endangered by Falling Fragments of Rock. The people in the employ of John Cen- ter, who are blasting off Potrero avenue, between Nineteenth and Twentieth streets, for material to fill in the Miller & Lux property on Mariposa avenue, have peen lately putting in unusually large blasts and the people in the neighborhood have been | complaining of the excessive noise and | jarring of the houses, and will take some decisive action. Last evening when the final blasts for the day were put off a large piece of rock | weighing fifteen or twenty pounds was THE STUDENTS IN THE WHITT OF ASSORTED SIZES. ONE SCHOLARS.

Its ob- ject is to do missionary work for the French language, making its dulcet ac- cents as familiar to the endsof the earth as they are on the boulevards of Paris. The San Francisco branch of the Alliance has been in existence for some years and the members have always cherished the hope of some day opening classes very much on the lines of the Italian schools. Last month they commenced work in ear- nest by obtaining permission from the Board of Education to use the schools best situated for the French population, the Washington and the Whittier. Professors were appointed and the classes are just getting into running order. M. Lamare, a professor, well known in San Francisco and Berkeley, has been ap- pointed to the Washington School. e holds his class from half-past 3 till 5 o’clock every day but Saturday, and he has his hands full in trying to guide forty chil- dren through the mazy intricacies of the first steps in_the language. They vary from infants of tender years to young men and maidens. Some of the small fry can chatter in French like natives. “It takes time to bring them allup to the same standard,” said the professor, as he dismissed his class at 5 o’clock, “but those who cannot speak French wiil soon learn from those who can.” At the Whittier School, on Harrison street, Mme. Leonie Bousquet, who has been a teacher in the public schools in France, conducts a class of twenty-three children. The majority of them are girls, and with two exceptions they are French, 50 that the lessons go as if on oiled wheels. that . reils end_probably the cars e will necessarily come from the e of the inability of coast manu- successfully compete in building .

William Hessler has been awarded home ad rights on her deceased husband’s property and has been allowed $300 & month er support. She was also given leave to erect a $5000 monument over her dead hus- band’s grave. jury has awarded Ch t'of les Jurgensen a ver- sini and others for their negligence.

He was suing the Central Presbyterian Taber- necle, of which he was formerly pastor, for what he claimed was unpaid salary. William Boya was driving & team on Eight- eenth street yesterday morning, where grading is being carried on, when the breke broke and the tenm ran eway. Boyd was thrown vio- lently to the ground &nd had two of his ribs fractured, besides sustaining severe internal injuries.

L. U. Shippee, the Stockton horse-breeder, who is a guest at the Baldwin, lost his overcoat to & sneak thief. He had been writing in the hotel correspondence-room, and stepped across the lobby to send a telegram, leaving his outer garment bn_ his chair. When he returned it had vanished. The matter has been reported to the police. No doubt General Howard will be greeted by » large sudience this evening at8 o'clock i the new auditorium of the Young Men’s tian Association, corner of Mason and Eilis streets, when he will deliver his lecture on “Grant at Chatianooga.” His description of this and other battles under Grant will be ex- ceedingly interesting and instructive. Manuel Sen Pedro has been awarded a judg- ment for $10,220 against J. B. Cooper. Cooper and San Pedro went partnership in & number of mining ventures, and when they tried to settle up there wes but $20,441 in sight. This Cooper wanted to apply 1o his own debts, but the court awarded haif of it to San Pedro. There was much more money involved at first, bui the statute of limitations barred most of the claims. John T. Bradley is suing Samuel P. Dorsey 510,000 for services rendered. Dorsey 2d fo work the Maryland mine in Nevada County, but to do this he had to obtain control of cerisin stock he did not then own, and it also required $125,000. Bradiey offered to se- cure both money and stock for him for a com- mission of 10,000, and he now sues for the amount, claiming he has fulfilled his contract and that payment has been refused. Mme.

There have been several narrow escapes from accidents from falling rocks lately, and the neighborhood is so stirred up that they will probably take steps to-day to stop the nuisance. —————— FIGHTING INDIANS. It Takes a Kind of Courage That Men Frequently Lack. “It takes a special kind of courage to fight Indians,” said Major Edward Rags- dale at the “Little Gem” in Topeka. “They’re pretty sure to surprise you, and they're slippery as quicksilver and as hard to catch. Their yelling and whooping alone are enough to stampede men not trained to their style of fighting. Some- times they fight under cover, and you catch a fire from an enemy you can’t get a sight of, and again, where there hasn’t been one to be seen, they seem all to spring out of the ground at once and charge you as though nothing could stand their onset. Then there’s the knowledge that if they catch you alive you’ll be skinned alive or burned or your life tortured out of you by slow degrees in a thousand other ways they can think of to make you suffer, There’s many a stout-hearted” desperado, a terror in white settlements and not afraid to have a pistol or shotgun scrap at any hour of the day or night with a man of his own color, who doesn’t count for a row of pins in an Indian fight. . “Take Sam Brown of Nevada for a case in point. He was not afraid of any man that wore boots and he was the terror of MONSIEUR LAMARE TEACHING NOUNCE ‘A” AT THE THE FRENCH OLASS WASHINGTON SOHOOL. [Sketched by @ “Call” artist.] the other children translate for them when they cannot understand. ‘“And then you see,” she said, showing a book filled with ictures of the birds of the air and the easts of the field, “‘all those creatures have the names in French written under them so that the children’s eyes teach them a great deal.”” The Le Conte school is entirely managed by Madame Marshall, formerly principal of the Cosmopolitan school. Her class is advanced, as 1t has been in existence since last September. The Alliance begged Madame Marshall to take any children it might send into her class, and it pays for them, instead of letting the parents do so. There are thirty-four children in the Le Conte school, but_the classes take place every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, from 3:30 to 5°p. M., instead of every day during the school week. The French Alliance is entirely non-sec- tarian. Parents who send their children to its school are expected to pay a nominal monthly subscription, but the work is really alabor of love among some of the French residents. Daniel Levy is the president, and the following gentlemen compose theboard of managers: Charles L. P. Marais, M. L. de Chantreau, Alphonse Bousquet, Albert Arnaud, Charles Rous- seau, Charles Greffe, Paul Dubois, M. L. C. Bertin, Adolphe Loiseau. AN EVENING OF MUSIC. Concert Given by the Mercantile Library Auxiliary. The regular monthly meeting of the Mer- cantile Library Auxiliary last night took the form of aconcert, at which most of the the minin§ camps everywhere he went. The Piute Indians got bad one time and a party was organized in the camps to go out against them. Sam joined the volun- teers and everil_mdy in the Enrty and all that stayed behind were talking about the big deeds Sam Brown would do and chuck- ling to think how those redskins would be tired out when they ran up against him. Well, when they came upon the In- dians things didn’t turn out quite as they had expected. It wasthe whites that got knocked out in short order, and those that weren't left on'the ground stampeded for safety. Sam Brown was one oF the first whites to run and the pace he set his horse at to get away from those redskins was something that beat quarter racing in the way of reckless riding. As they stampeded down a canyon, every man tryii to_be foremost to get away, Sam hafied Joe McMurtrie, who was riding a better horse than his: ‘“‘Oh, Mac! Pull your horse a little so Ican come up. We'll ride safer together.’ . “McMurtrie’s answer to that friendly invitation was to bend down to his horse’s neck, set in the spurs and get out of that canyon ahead of Sam and back to Bodie as fast as hoofs could carry him. He knew Sam Brown, and that if that worthy once got alongide him he wouldn’t hesitate to shoot him off his horse so as to get a better mount for himself. After they all got back to the settlement he didn’t go round to places where he was likely to meet Sam, lest it might stir him up to unpleasant recollections of their Indian campaign— eople were that considerate of others’ eelings in those days when the other ha; ned to be Sam Brown.”—Chicago Tri- une. MONEY WILL NOT BE REQUIRED. THE NEWLY INSTITUTED LABOR EXCHANGE WILL ABOLISH POVERTY, APPEAL TO THE SUPERVISORS. A Co-OPERATIVE SYSTEM THAT WiLL PROVIDE EMPLOYMENT FOR ALL. A committee of the Labor Exchange will go before the Finance Committee of the Board of Supervisors to-morrow and urge the adoption of their plan for the issuance of $1,000,000 worth of bonds or warrants in small denominations, receivable by the city for taxes. The bonds or warrants would be paid to any workmen who would accept them for labor on public works. This is one way by which the Labor Ex- change hopes to give work to the unem- ployed and prove the uselessness of “legal tender’”” money and the absolute sin of in- terest. The Labor Exchange has attracted pub- lic notice of late and some interest is man- ifested in its theories and operation. Its fundamental purpose is to give work to the unemployed. Tne exchange professes to have solved the riddle of hard times, and to be pre- pared to banish them the moment its doc- trines are accepted. It professes to be the only one of itskind that is ready to bring relief at onceand toall. All other ems, the exchange founders say, re- quire political majorities, or if not that, then the tearing up of all the social rela- tions of a sufficient number of people and the isolating of these into communities and thus the beginning of life again. TIts cardinal principle is to snub money; not the love of money, but the money itself. That men should trade in money and charge high prices for what is sim- ply designed as a medium of exchange and should represent actual product is, they say, at the bottom of all the trouble. S0 the Labor Exchange has a lavor check of its own which it issues to any one who gives value for it. No such thing as inter- est shall ever contaminate this check. It represents value always. The farmer who brings wheat to the exchange gets his check for the value and may turn the check into boots, blankets or whatever he wishes, just as he would with money. It has nowhere reached that point, but the local organizer, Carl Gleeser, declares that Carl Gleeser, State Organizer of the Labor Exchange. [From a photograph.] it is rapidly marching toward it. In the meantime he says there are benefits at hand. They have enlisted a number of roducers in a great variety of different ines, “and,” he “so soon as we can make a complete circle in this way, cover- ing all the necessaries of life, a great step will have been taken, and the members in the circle will be certain of such comforts as their own efforts entitle them to. “Our aimis to secure a building to be used as a depository and exchange—one central depository first, which should de- velop into a great department store. As the movement progresses others could be established in different districts, railroads could be built, 2na so the exchange would reach out to distant points, just as we see the ramifications of trade under the ham- pering restrictions of money. A branch up in Oregon is even now building a rail- road to connect with a trunk line. But I am sensible that the chief interest is felt by those who might seek the benefits of the movement now, as to what it offers and how it works in its present incipient stage. We are working hard to secure members and to complete the circle I speak of, The list of business houses and workers in this city who will now accept ‘Labor Exchange checks’ for goods they have for sale or services they can perform includes the fol- lowing: Altruria Exchange, groceries, 124 Eighth street; R.

And I know that the rapidity of its growth is merely a matter of the time required to educate the people up to it. Its application here would soon set every idle man in the city to work, and with that accomplished every branch of business would take on a boom and soon all the so- called ‘floating gulntiun’ would be per- manently absorbed. “This progosmofl that we make to the city about the bonds is not new. It has been tried and very successfully. In Piafftown, N. C., a three-story brick build- ing has been erected on the principle of g:per checks, not a cent_of legal tender ing used in any way in its construction. It has no debt for interest hanging over it. A college has been started on this principle in_Texas, the students working in the fields and paying the professors with the product of the labor” of their hours of plysmnl exercise. The school thus pro- vides an education of the highest order, technical instruction going with moral, mental and physical development, an when the students graduate they already have a knowledge of practical affairs that ~. costs so many other students years to secure. ““The newspapers tell us how the weevil is destroying thousands of tons of wheat,” continued Mr. Gleeser, “while at the same time men and women are going hungry because they have no work. Suppose this wheat was turned over to them for their labor would it not be a great ble5§m§, not only to the persons directly benefited, but to all Californians?”’ X G. B. de Bernardi, anthor of “Trials and Triumphs of Labor,” is the fatber of the movement, as his book, which teaches that the “legal tender’” act is responsible for the great handicap on labor, 1s its gospel. The movement languished, however, until the great crash of '93, when the real prop- aganda began and under the educating in- fluence of very hard times has thrived greatly. The past year it has received a great impetus. Carl Gleeser was commissioned State organizer for California in July of last year and now there is scarcely a county in the State where there is not an active branch with growing members. Mr. Gleeser’s headquarters is at 30 Tenth street, where he publishes a little journal in the inter- ests of the order, called Living Issues. SNEEZING AND SNUFFLING. LA GRIPPE IS ONCE AGAIN BE- COMING EPIDEMIC IN THIS CITY. SoME oF THE CasEs WILL Pros- ABLY PROVE FATAL—THE VICTIMS. La grippe has again made its appearance in the city and threatens to become epi demic. Millionaires and paupers, states- men and their antitheses, Caucasians and Chinese are sneezing and snuffing in melancholy chorus and suffer from such nervous tension that condolences are most unwelcome. Nob Hill is feeling the effects of the plague, and the Western Addition, Barbary Coast and the water front are full of trouble. In some cases the disease is likely to prove fatal. Frank Wadsworth, assistant weigher in the Custom house and one of the oldest employes in the service, isdying from its effects. He caught cold some days ago and it gradually developed into a bad case of la grippe. Last night he wasun- conscious and the physicians gave him up. He is not expected to survive the day. Mr. Wadsworth is a member of Garfield Post of the Grand Army. He lost an arm at the battle of Gettysburg and has in con- sequence drawn a pension of $40 a month during the past few years. For twenty- four years he has been employed in the Custom house. He is also a member of the Ancient order of United Workmen. Another victim of the disease is Colonel Southard Hoffman, United States Com- missioner and clerk of the District Court. He was laid up for five days with a severe attack, and yesterday when he attempted to visit his office he suffered a relapse and is now in bed a very sick man. United States Commissioner Hancock is just recovering from the disease, and Secret Service Agent N. R. Harris of the Treasury Department is also among the sufferers. Assistant Secret Service Agent R. Harris is prostrated by a severe attack, though he does not suffer so much as his father. Naval Officer John P. Irish and his as- sistant, George W. Branch, are numbered among the victims. The colonel thinks hz receives little sympathy, for his friends seem inclined to poke fun at him. They attribute his suffering to the fact that he appeared in public recently wearing a necktie. Chief Sullivan of the Fire Department is confined to his house, and much uneasi- ness is felt as to the result. Charles C. Bruce and George Bowen, of the shipping firm of Bruce, Bowen & Co., are also pros- trated with the disease. Eugene Davis of Davis Brothers is confined to his Belvedere home for the same cause. He will not be able to attend to business for a week yet. President Harrington of the Merchants’ Club sent to the meeting of the Half-mil- lion Club yesterday his regrets on his in- ability to attend. He is ill with la grippe. Police Judges Campbell, Conlan and Joachimsen are victims of the epidemic. Judge Campbhell is confined to his bed and Justice Barry is holding court in his en- forced absence. JudgesConlan and Joach- imsen appeared in their respective courts yesterday morning, but were compelled to adjourn after struggling for about an hour to perform their duties. Judge Low has escaped so far, but Prosecuting Attor- ney Roberts was unable to attend court yesterday afternoon. Chief Crowley and Captain Lees were able to be at _headquarters for two or three hours yesterday. Both looked as if they were recovering from severe illness. The Chief blames la grippe for his suffering and the captain, although suffering from rheu- matism in his ankles, declares that he is also suffering from a touch of the common enemy. Several members of the police force are also confined to their homes from the same cause. Chief Clerk Hardenbergh walksthe Bald- win lobbies a picture of woe. He has been suffering from the epidemic two weeks and this is the fourth consecutive winter that the disease has attacked him. A. N.

Henry Otto, a Grocer, Arrested for As- sault to Murder. Henry Otto, grocer at Twenty-fifth street and Bryant avenue, was arrested late last night by Sergeant Burke and Policeman Porter andjtaken to the Seventeenth-street station, where he was booked on a charge of assault to murder. 5 Albert Kahn, whose father owns the stockyards on the Mission road, near the Five-mile House, was drinking at Otto’s bar when he used an insulting expression to Otto. The latter retorted, when Kahn asl'{ed him to come outside and fight it out. More angry words passed between them and Kahn wentoutside, where he repeated the expression. Otto grabbed a five-ounce weight and rushed at Kahn. He knocked him down and beat him on the head till the blood flowed; then he desisted. Kahn was taken to the City and County Hos[fixtul in the patrol-wagon, where seven stitches were put in the wounds on his head. He was then driven to his father’s residence. His injuries may prove serious. ———— Paint Club Election. The San Francisco Paint, Oil and Varnish Club last night elected the following officers: President, J. P. i 0. Low; treasurer, G.
