United States District Judge de Haven yesterday handed down a decision in the case of Antonlo Ramirez and others against the Mexican Steamship Company to recover wages and $100 damages each, The admitted facts of the case were that the libelants signed articles for a trip on the steamship Mexico as able bodied sea- men from San Francisco to Mazatlan and that they were discharged upon reaching Mazatlan. The libelants asserted that he secretary of the Mexican Consul at San Francisco. In Yeading the shipping articles to them before they signed, rep- resented that the. contract was for the voyage to Mazatlan and return to San Francisco. This allegation was disproved.

TECHAU TAVERN, s restaurant and family resort well and faverably known to all San Franciscans, was de- stroyed by fire some months ago, since which time it has been undergoing re- fitting and renovating, and, thorough as were its equipments and appointmenta before, and handsome and cozy as was the interior, its present appearance so far excels the former that it will be sure to again become the popular and favor- ite resort of the city.

Among the institutions identified with | the growth and development of San Fran- cisco Heald's Business College holds a conspicuous place. Both as a business enterprise and an educational institution it has been ever since its organization, nearly forty years ago, extremely popular and eminently successful. It is in the class of those solid and substantial insti- tutions in which a city takes pride. Citi- zens point to it as one of the old reliable and thoroughly progressive establish- ments, an institution with a definite pur- pose and an unquestioned status. In connection with commercial educa- tion the name of Heald's is a household word on the Pacific Coast and throughout the country at large. In its own field of effort it Is as widely known as Stanford or Berkeley, for it enrolls students from the four quarters of the globe. In 1899 every county in California but four had students in Heald's Business College. The four not represented were Del Norte, Las- sen, Orange and Ventura. The register of the college shows that in 1900 students were_enrolled from the following States and Territories outside of California; in many cases there were several represent | atives from each: Nevada, Towa, Wash- ington, Oregon, Montana, Colorado, Utah, Idaho, Arizona, Kansas, Missouri, Penn. sylvania, New Jersey, Vermont, Virginla and New Mexico. In 1900 students came directly to the school from Mexico, Can- ada, Japan, the Hawalian Islands, Yukon. Territory, Siberia and Central America. Enrollments were also made from Eng- land and Sweden. Its large body of alumni constitute a most formidablé promoting force, and the steady growth of the college can be at- tributed largely to the commending volce of these thousands of graduates, who know whereof they speak.

Try and realize - that stands for a full $5 value. Does it sound too high? Stop and consider that one pair of Sorosis outwears any two pairs of lower priced shoes. Among the most enthusias- tic wearers of Sorosis to-day are thousands of women who used to pay anywhere from $5 to $10 a pair for shoes— thousands of others who never thought they could ai- ford to pay more than $2.50. It’s a wonderful shoe that can satisfy alike both the fas- tidious and the economically minded. SIZES 50 1t09 STYLES $ Z2 50 THIRD ST., S. F.
