This, with the $1000 given | by the Board of Trade of San Fran- cisco and the $15,000 contributed by | | the eity, together with the gums sub- | scribed by private citizens, brings the | total up to date to $35,000. There is !a shortage of something llke $8000 | yet, but the finance committee of the | general San Francisco committee, | representing all the commerclal or- | ganizations of the city, is of the opin- {xon that the remaining sum requisite | will be given. ! News that the Merchants' Associa- | tion had donated $1000 was given out yesterday. This breaks all donation records of the association. It was | prompted by the fact that San Fran- cisco is virtually to be placed on ex- hibition at St. Louis and any failure | |to make a credftable showing would | certainly create an unfavorable im- | pression abroad concerning the enter- | prise and public spirit of the peopl ! In addition to the subscriptions men- | tioned sums have been contributed re- | | cently by private scitizens and others | as follows: | RECENT SUBSCRIPTIONS. The Viavi Company, $200; W. W.

The California Redwood | Association, Mrs. Abbie E. Krebs, acting as its representative, has con- tributed redwood for the interior, for doors, sashes, etc. Mrs. Krebs is in St. Louis. The burlap necessary all other objects In the interior of the contributed by the Neville Bag Company, was also shipped yes- terday. PROGRESS OF BUILDING. News is received from Samuel New- 2! som, architect for the San Francisco building, that the framework is up and the roof is on. sixty men are employed on the build- ing and on the building materials. The entire structure will be completed, un- less inclement weather should inter- fere, by the end of the present month. Twenty men are casting the staff in molds for the exterior ornamentation | of the structure, which will be qulte | ornate, with large columns, etc. The time has arrived for maklng the first payment of $6500 on the cost of the building. The entire cost is guaranteed by the San Francisco | banks and will be -paid when the ap- | land county of San Francisco is pald | over to the commiittee. \ ———— e e PROMOTION COMMITTEE | PREPARING COOK BOOK | Volume Will Deal With Recipes for Preserving Fruits and Making Jellies and Jams. | The California Promotion Commit- tee wiil issue a book dealing with the preparation of California fruits for the table, giving recipes for preserving fruits and making jellies, jams and other articles of food. New. dishes will be described and directions will be given for a number of new dishes and will tell how fruits may be served attractively. After the cook book on fruits is pre- pared the committee proposes to dis- tribute other books and pamphlets | | dealing with the preparation of Cal- | ifornia products, believing that not only the interests of California will be fruits and vegetables. The committee has received the fol- lowing letter from George T. Oldham | ot Saratoga, Cal.: Our little_village is about to enter on a | new era. The Interurban electric cars begin to-morrow making reguler hourly trips be- tween here and San Jose. We need a news. vaper, hotel and cannery. Thero s a good | opening for each. 1 have been appointed one | of a committee to try to interest some one | in the cannery project.

Attempts have been made to provide | | means to enrich the fund, but thus far without success. City Attorney Long | rendered an opinion that an act of | the Legislature would be necessary to- compel teachers to pay $2 a month in- | H ,nead of $1 into the fund, an amount ' | that would meet all demands on the | fund. This must be done at the next | session of the Legislature if rellef is to | be had. | | A former School Director is author- | ity for the statement that at least | fifty teachers would resign their posi- ' | tions in the Public School Departmen | should they be guaranteed the full pay | ment of annuities as provided by law. | There are at present thirty-nine an- | nuitants receiving the benefits of the fund. The expenditures for the last | | quarter were $2403 75 and = demands were drawn on the City Treasurer for | the segregated annuities. } ‘ —e———— i San Francisco Veterinary College. | Next session will begin June 6th.
