Enterprising and progressive property- few years ago was a waste of sand dunes 2 place of beauty and pleasure for subur- ban residence. During the past six years street and avenue improvements followed in such rapld successsion that the south- ern side of the Golden Gate Park began to attract attention. From a few indus- trious families who started in to improve the section about Seventh avenue the progress of the Sunset Valley com- menced, and to-day Nineteenth avenue is 2 modernized thoroughfare, macadamized and passable for several blocks. The following report of the executive committee of the Nineteenth-avenue Boulevard Club will explain how and by whom this section has geen improved: To the Officers and Members of the Nine- three months ago your executive committee was intrusted with the work of securing subscrip- tions from the property owners for the pur- pose of planting bunch grass on the sand dunes to the west of Nineteenth avenue. The object of this was to prevent the drifting of the sand over the roadway of Nineteenth avenue, now belog graded and macadamized from Golden Gate Park to Ingleside. Your committee begs to report that after a great expenditure of time and labor on their gart the work committed to their charge has n accomplished In a manner that they trust will be gatisfactory to your organization, and also to the property owners who so generously planted about eight acres at the lower end of the avenue, between I and K streets westward, end on the high plateau south of C street about twenty-seven acres, running three blocks from O to R streets, and westward about 850 feet, The grass {s beginning to grow vigorousiy, and without doubt will accomplish the object 20 much desired. We believe that this is the first time that an effort has been made on a large scale to plant the sand dunes with grass to_stop the sand from drifting. We desire to call the attention of the city government, through the medium of the press, to this important work. We have found by ac- tual experience that grass can be planted at a comparatively small expense. We estimate that in all the district south of Golden Gate makes, adced to many improvements, are rep.e- sented in the “SOROSIS.” March 13, to benefit the co-operative | homes have pledged their talents in a | good cause.

If this extensive territory were reclaimed {t would then be possible to survey accurately, t and to put the property in shape for a short time the increased value taxable purposes would amply reimburse the city for the first cost of the work. An ample supply of grass for planting this district can be had from the vicinity of the park and the ocean beach. We cannot conceive of any public improvement that could be undertaken which would be of more benefit to the city of San Francisco than this, and hope, now that the attention of the press and the public has been called to this Important matter, that an gffort will be made to make this suggestion ef- ective.

Bert Gray, an incorrigible and vicious criminal, was sentenced to ten years in Folsom Prison by Judge Lawlor yester- day. Though young in iyears, Gray Is old in crime, and has been before the courts time and again on various charges. Hi first offense for which he stood trial w: committed in November, 1896. He for the name of his stepfather to a check for and was sentenced to serve six months in the County Jail for the offense. He later gained notoriety by leading the at- tack on aged Isidore Goulet at his resi- dence on Golden Gate avenue. The old man was beaten nearly to death by Gray and two companions. The latter are now serving lomg terms in prison, but Gray escaped Punlshment for this offense. Shertly after this he entered a hotel in Martinez and stole all of the money in the safe. For this crime he served six months in the County Jail, or at least was sentenced to this term, but he escaped before he had ‘‘done” his time. Coming to this city he obtained employ- ment in a hotel at 614 Sutter street, and while there robbed the rooms of two guests. Last week he was convicted on two charges of burglnry, and yesterday appeared before Judge Lawlor for sen- tence. In passing sentence Judge Lawlor sald he believed the criminal to be of the most depraved character and he would impose the extreme penalty allowed b; law—five years for each c! , OT & tof of ten years, In the penitentiary.
