LA There demand great public sentiment back of carts that the scavengers’ d in the public streets be so emp! not to endanger the public Merchants, bacteriologists and phy said yesterday that there is danger in hav- as ing the carts handled Merchants assert tha damaged by the vile, bacteria-breeding dirt that is blown from the tops of the uncovered loads. There is no dissent from the opinfon that health is endangered. It appears that the Phelanized Board of Health is permitting constant violation of the law, which provides for a heavy cover to be tightly fastened on the carts or ve- hicles at all times when the owner or driver is not collecting or depositing the general refuse. This ordinance was &p- proved by Mayor Phelan on Judy 13, 15x. The Mayor therefore must knew the law. Presumably the Board of Health knowledge of the health ordinances. It is notorious that the carts used in carrying greater part attached ity of the refuse covers to them. They move about the streets covered with only coarse cloth, if covered at all. While the carts stand in front of stores, schoolhouses or residences the unsavor contents are blown about by every pas ing breeze. the have n»> BITUMINOUS PAVEMENT ON CHINATOWN STREETS Mayor Recommends It to the Board of Public Works as a Measure of Health. The Mayor yesterday sent the following self-explanatory letter to Colonel Mendell, president of the Board of Public Works: As @ measure of cleanliness and health I be- lieve that Chinatown should be paved with bi- tuminous’ rock. The present roadway is no doubt sccepted and under ordinary circum- stances the charge would be upon the city, but property owners on accepted streets have con- tributed one-half the cost of repaving under the influence of the Merchants’ Assoclation. In the matter of Chinatown, I think the property own- ers ought to be made to bear the whole ex- pense, and as a sanitary measure they will be compelied to clean up their premises and they might, if A systematic request is made, agree to pave the streets and alleys. As disease is principally carried, perhaps, in the germ-laden dust, a hard paved and watered roadway in Chinatown would be a sanitary measure of first importance. In your estimate for the coming vear I would suggest that you include the repair of Bush street_and the laying of modern pavements on Van Ness avenue where such do not now ex- ist, and on many of the streets of the down- | town districts, on some of which the property owners are willing to bear one-half the ex- pense. —_———— Dr. Parker's Cough Cure.

This celebra- tion is perhaps more significant than any other of its kind held by the Irish people in ‘a generation and the ceremonies, not alone in this city but all over the world, will be of commensurate dignity. The day will be spent as a festival of feasting and song, of praise, prayer, devotion and recreation. For in the last few months great dignities and triumphs have come to representatives of the Irish race. Irisn soldlers have proved their valor on the battleflelds of South Africa and by per- mission of their Queen they are wearing the shamrock on their breasts. In honor, too, of their victories in war the green flag with the golden harp is floating over the mansion of the Lord Mayor of Lon- don. ; Linked with the patriotic effusions of the Iyish people of this eity will be a tribute to the Boers, for whose benefit the proceeds of two monster shows, this after- noon and evening, will be given to the Boer Red Cross Society. It means the joining of hands of the Irish people in this city and the beleaguered Boers fight- ing_against odds for liberty and home. Both entertainments will be held at Wood. ward’'s Pavilion, the programmes for RTLIN | | | ing the Baldwi Ruins Break Down Wit ————— N experiment with a novel fire-escape on the wall of A the building adjoining the Baldwin ruins on Market street nearly caused the death of two people yesterday afternoon. The inventor was manipylating his machine when the accident oc- curred. By the eccentric operaticn of the machine two wrought iron balls used as its governors were de- tached and hurled with terrific force, one upward and the other downward. The former sailed through the air for a'distance of 350 feet, striking the sign over the California Cafe on Powell street and punching holes in it. The %all that took the downward path grazed the head of a laborer, Hugh Cunningham, working in the ruins. For an hour before the accident the contrivance worked smoothly and successfully, It is a cage much after the fashion of those used in mines. Two small boys, whose cu- riosity exceeded their discretion, were. the human part of the show for a time, but they luckily escaped the accident. The machine is auto- matic. All the escaping party need to do is to get in the cage, and re- leasing a brake he goes to the bot- tom like a bird dropping to earth. But the machine was played once too often. After a miscue another trip was attempted, but the gear- ing was worn out and the support- ing rod snapped, releasing the balls, that might have cut off the life of several people. The ball that struck the sign over the cafe caused much excitement on account of the re- port, and a large crowd gathered on the streets. One of the hy- standers carried away the iron ball as a souvenir, to the chagrin of the inventor. | gfli*fi SROR IR IR IR RGN ERN IR IR IRERIRI RNIRORNIR RS RN GRNG RNeNe RN GR 4B RN N N NN Startling Results. +B%+R e SRR oo NN +H N oL BHIR sB N IR sB R e R o5+ Ko G MISSILES NEARLY CAUSED DEATH Patent Fir; Escape on a Wall Adjoin- n s h + RN +RRIN +H NN RN NN N+ +Ne HeKe Ko PRIR NI RN RN RN ReR+R 850 RoRe Rofe Ne RNeRG S0 which contain many interesting numbers.

OAKLAND, March 16.—Although there will be no general celebration in honor of | St. Patrick’s day to-morrow, there were | several entertainments given by members of various church parishes to-night that quite made up In a musical and literary way for the shortcomings of the morrow. At St. Patrick’s Hall in West Oakland a | large number of parishioners attended to | enjoy an excellent programme arrangecd by the Young Ladies’ Sodality of Father McNally’'s church. Rev. Father McNally made a forceful opening address, and the numbers were executed in almost the order printed heretofore. Father King's parish held its celebration in honor of St. Patrick at Hamilton Hall, which was filled to its utmost capacity. The programme was of unusual merit. Father Serda’s parish also held appro- riate exercises in Sacred Heart Hall, at g‘nn,\uflrs( and Grove streets. | In addition to these the Ancient Order | of Hibernians also celebrated the day ded- | icated to their patron saint. Colonel T. F. Garrity presided and J. A. Emery of Francisco was orator. Mrs. Mary Sulli-| van-Langdon and Miss Eva Shorey ren- | dered selections.
