The model of the group me: uring seventeen feet six inches in height, twenty-two feet in length and trom four to flve feet in depth, was completed, submitted to the architect, and, after some alterations requiring a week's labor and the outlay of one hundred dollars of Mr. Edwards’ money, approved by the architect and paid for, according to the terms of con- tract, in the sum of three hundred dol- lars. Of this amount all but fifty dollars was due in wages. The balance paid the studio rent. Mr. Edwards drew again on what remained to him of his personal funds for the purchase of fitty barrels of plaster and the building of a furnace for the metal castings. He had completed two figures of the sec- ond group when his men, with whom he had contracts, refused to go on with the work. They hinted that they could make better arrangements with the contractors and foundrymen direct, de- manded an increase of wages and on being told that they would be held to their contracts struck work and left the clay to dry on their employer’'s hands. Mr. Edwards appealed to his employers for advice. They had mMone to offer. They reminded him that the work con- tract:d for was to be completed on the 31st of December. The October moon was already on the wane. After wast- ing two weeks in futile attempts at compromise, the sculptor got his men at work again on their own terms. One November day Mr. Laver called at Mr. Edwards’ studio. e was ac- companieéd by Mr. Roberts. They an- nounced that Mr. Flood had decided to add two stories to his building at the corner of Market and Fourth streets and therefore did not want any groups of statuary of heroic size to adorn the top of it—dld not want any res and Bacchus to represent his wheat and wine interests in California —did not want any typical figure of his fortune with the features of his daughter—did not want any of the things for which Messrs. Conlin & Roberts, Metal Roof Contractors, had contracted to | .y Morton A. Edwards, sculptor, Four Thousand Four Hundred and Fifty Dollars in U. 8. Gold Coin; and they would like to know what Mr. Edwards would take to cancel that contract. Mr. Edwards was a stranger in a strange land. He was without money, without friends, without resources, without choice. He had expended nine- teen hundred dollars of his own money and three hundred dollars paid him by Conlin & Roberts in preparations for W. | Mrs. 8. Wall and child, Miss Genevieve Nolan, P. G.

He sald he would take a | thousand dollars in cash and the ma- | | terfals of the studio. Mr. Roberts | would not accept these terms. Mr. Ed- | | wards gave him his choice between | |them and the terms of the contract. | Mr. Roberts said his attorney could cancel the latter with a stroke of his pen. Mr. Laver seemed to agree with {him. Mr. Edwards did not. In the ab- [sence of Mr. Flood, who was in New }Yurk. he called on Con O’Connor, man- |ager of the Flood interests. who ri ferred him back to Mr. Laver, who re- | ferred him back to Conlin & Roberts, who referred him to his own resources. He called on James L. Flood, the son of James C. Flood, who decided prop- erly enough that the affair was none of his. He called finally on James C. Flood, who had returned to San Fran- cisco, who refused to see him a dozen times, received him the thirteenth, ex- pressed himself as disinclined for all conversation on the subject and chang- ed his mind sufficiently to say that when people owed him money he sued them, and cheerfully recommended Mr. Edwards to the same simple course. The English sculptor took him at his word. He put the matter into the hands of a collector and attorney, filed a lien on the Flood building, then still in process of erection at the corner of Market and Fourth streets, and in April, 1887, began suit against Conlin & Roberts, centractors, and James C. Flood, capitalist. A demurrer was filed by Flood’s attorneys, who claimed that their client was improperly made party | to the suit, but Judge Wallace decided that under the circumstances Mr. Flood was a very proper person {to be sued, and the demurrer was | overruled. The case came up before Judge Levy, occupied two days in the trial and was decided in favor of Mor- ton Andrew Edwards, with a verdict of sixteen hundred dollars and costs. Flood's attorneys applied immediately for a new trial, which was granted them. But they appeared to be in no hurry to press the advantage they had gained. The months dragged along and the moneys of Morton Andrew Edwards were exhausted. He had continued to pay rent on the studio in the vicinity of Larkin and California streets, where he held a class in sculpture and worked betimes at infrequent orders with what intermittent assistance he could afford to purchase by the hour. Under such disadvantages as these he modeled and executed several monu- ments in stone, a coat-of-arms in bronze for Scottish Hall. colossal, fig- ures of Aristotle.

And when he understood it all quite thoroughly at last he went home and wrote a letter to Miss Jennie Flood, to whom her father’'s bullding at the corner of Fourth and Market streets had been conveyed, and told her all the circumstances of the case as he saw them and also of his circum- | stances and the circumstances of h Cogswell and other large schools, were | rivals armed cap-a-pie withadvantages | over the studio in the vicinity of Lar- | kin and California streets. The infre- quent jordess came few and far be- tween und finally ceased. There seemed to be no distinguished personages in | | San Francisco. t| Morton Andrew Edwards found i difficult to live Hy the labor of his days. He moved his family from cheap to | cheaper lodgings, sold his jewels andi the © wels of his wife, sold his few ef- fects of value, pledged what he ceuld not sell and kept the wolf length from his door. Then came a day | when the rent of the studl , long over- | due, could not be paid. The landlord | appropriated its negotiable stock and advised his unprofitable tenant to take himself and his Titan offspring into | the streets. The sculptor, stripped of | his stock in trade, without a shelter for | his art, disowned the plaster tribe and | ! turned his back on Larkin street. The | landlord sent Zor the Sherii and at a | butcher wagon never rattled to their | cost of one hundred dollars to himself, | door, which was the door of a base- | besides an additional cost of sixty dol- lars for cutting a hole in his building | oftener than the butcher, and for this | to let them through, moved the heroic group designed, ordered and executed for the Flood Building out as far as | the curb of the street before his doors. | And there the winds of the air came and howled about their ears and there the dust of the earth rose to gather on their garments and there the rains of heaven beat upon their heads, washed | away the grap -like curls of Bacchus, | ran in muddy streams across the gar- ments of Ceres, robbed Fortune of her rounded arms, but spared the features | of Miss Flood. And there the Supervisor of Streets discovered them to be cbstructions and unsightly in the eyves of man and or- dered somebody to be arrested for | placing them there, the landlord, the sculptor, anybody, and finding nobody arrestable within the limits of the law, ordered the city carts to come and | gather up the crumbling remalns and carry them away to the Corporation Yard. But first came Morton Andrew Edwards with an express wagon driven at his own expense and into this went the head and shoulders of Fortune with | the features of Miss Flood. 5 In 1889 James Flood died. His attorneys pressed Edwards for trial. He was without money to meet their demand. They insisted that all claims against the estate must be settled, and rather than be forced into the contest without means to defend his rights, he let the name of James C. Flood drop | from the suit. Then Roberts died, the | firm of Conlin & Roberts passed out of existence and the executors of the Roberts estate laughed the Edwards claim to scorn. Then Morton Andrew Edwards took his last chance. He borrowed the ser- vices of an attorney willing to take the case on a conditional fee, and brought suit against the estate of W. Roberts of Coniin & Roberts, contractors, for family. And when no answer came tc this last appeal, which w est to make of all, he understood that he would better have listened to his lawyer. Persons residing in_ the neighbor- hood of California and Leavenworth streets, whose back windows overlook one another's yards, awoke one morn- ing to the neighborly presence of : plaster cast of heroic size in the ve smallest yard of all. Little was known of the persons to whom this back yard temporarily belongeq, Children play ed there sometimes, and a woman with white hair and a sweet girl's face under it passed in and out about after her as she came and went. They were newcomers and kept to themselves; thelr windows, decently draped In patched white muslin by day, and shaded by drawn blinds at' night, offered no feast for curious eyes; their children had little to say. Still it was decided in the neighborhood of Cali- fornia and Leavenworth streets that they were very poor. The cheerful ment flat to which the sun came no gloomy reason and for certain other disadvantages called for the smallest | rent on the street. The woman with white hair went out about her shopping alone, and it was observed that some- times she did not go for days at a time, and even then brought home very little bundles under her shawl, and some- times when she went out at dusk she carried away much larger bundles than she ever brought home, clumsily wrapped, In papers and obviously co ering clothing and household good After the coming of the big plaster cast for awhile, it was thought that they were poorer than before. The wood pile in_the little back yard dwindled down and it was not replenished. The chil- dren came seldom into the yard. The| fleld.

Carlsbad was a scene of an unusually interesting and patriotic celebration on the Fourth of July; the principal feature being the raising of the beautiful new flag over the hotel. The ceremony took place very early in the morning and commenced with the firing of a salute. W. L. Ebert of San Francisco was chosen orator of the day, and his remarks were full of elo- quence and patriotic sentiment. The sing- ing of “The Star Spangled Banner,” and later of “The Red. White and Blue,” was beautifully rendered by Mrs. Charles Mec- Govern of San Francisco. In all the cele- bration was full of pleasure to all who were fertunate enough to be present.
