After lying strapped to board two months and a half it has been found that the upper fracture of a Mrs. Page thigh has made no pro- gress and has not yet begun to unite| by sending out bone tissue. It is now believed to be a question of a more serious operation. At any event, a considerable time will be required for nature to do the healing.

In an interview Mr. Phelan, presi- dent of the Association for the Im- provement and Adornment of San Francisco, said that he had visited many of the leading banks and that they approved of th land for these specific purposes, which believed would not involve any | waste of public funds, and at the same | time establish the confidence of our cit- | izens in the credit of the community. They also believe that their customers will take many of these bonds, and per- haps when offered for sale by the city others may bid even more than par. “‘Our object is not to buy the bonds, so much as to insure the improvements,” said Phelan. “The people interested in the Mission Park, I am assured, see that the bonds for that purpose are taken. They involve $292,000. The Ger- the bonds. The Mutual Savings Bank decided at its meeting yesterday to bid at par for the whole issue of the bonds for the acquisition of the strip of land between the park and the Presidio, trus connecting and making one the 1500 acres of Government land and the 1000 acres of city land included in Gold- en Gate Park, amounting to $328,000. The Board of Examiners, presumably | for the investment of public school funds, has already bid for $250.,000 of the children’s playgrounds bonds. “From this you will see that over | $1,000,000 is actually in hand, and the | other $1,000,0000 will be taken by the | other savings and commercial banks which were interviewed yesterday. “The bankers of the city express themselves as being ready to help all legitimate improvements, but they will not encourage jobbery in the expendi- ture of public funds. That was the key- | note of their expressed sentiments.” e —————— McCARDLE GETS OFFICE.—The Supreme Court decided yesterday that Charl dle was entitied to the office of Recorder of County.

It is belleved that not a soul on board survived. The | bodies of a man and a woman were re- | covered to-day. It is-believed that the ill-fated vessel carried a crew of at ! least eight men besides her skipper, Captain Priddle. When the schooner was discovered {on the outer bar, life savers were on | the beach opposite the wreck in a short | time and began their efforts to sa\‘e] those on the doomed vessel, but there | came no sign of life, although lights | were shining in the cabin. They re- | mained on the scene all night. At day- | break to-day it was seen that two of the schooner’s masts had gone by the board and that her stern was washed away. Subsequently the two bodies were recovered. The Wentworth was bound from ‘z Hillsboro, N. B., to Newark, N. J., with | a cargo of plaster rock. On board, so | far as known, were the captain, Esau | Priddle, of St. John, N. B., his wife and | three children and a crew of seven men. ENCINEERS END INVESTIGATION i The commission of engineers that has | spent the last two months in California gathering data for a report on the best methods for draining the Sacramento and San Joaquin rivers and reclaim- ing their overflowed lands has con- cluded its labors here and its mem- bers will depart for the East to-day | The commissioners have arranged to | meet again on November 20 in Sioux | | City, Iowa, where they will prepare | their report, which they expect to sub- | mit to the California Commissioner of | Public Works about the middle of De- | | cember. Major T. G. Dabney of Mis- | sissippi, chairman of the commission, | in discussing the work done by him- | self and associates here, sald last| evening: The problem we had had under investiga- tion is beset with various complications and presents many phases. each of which demands particular study. While we have made dili- gent effort to master the subject by a study of the voluminous written and printed data that have accumulated, and by examination of the physical features of the ground as far as practicable, yet the time at our disposal has been top short to permit us to acquire as full and thorough information as desirable. | We are, however, enabled now to formulate a | general plan for the accomplishment of the objects in view and also to go into consid- erable detail in recommending the methods to be pursued in the practical application of the plans to be reported on by the commission. Previous plans for draining the Sacramento River, which is the most serious problem be- fore the commission. have generally recom- mended provisions for carrying off the sur- plus water to the bay in by-pass canals, We have departed from this plan and expect uiti- mately to make the channels of the river carry all its water. The San Joaquin River and its tributaries present a less difficult | problem and consequently the treatment will | be less elaborate, although theretwill be need | | for considerable rectification of the banks. We | have made our study of the situation as care- ‘ fully as possible and hope to recommend to that will ™o FOUNT | | | i California a _relief be permanent and most beneficlal. | Commissioner Dabney added that the | investigation here had included the taking of statements of various resi- | dents along the rivers, who were able | to make practical suggestions, and in | this manner the commission gleaned much valuable information not incor- porated in former reports. As yet the commission, he said, is not prepared to give any estimate as to the cost of inaugurating the river improvements to be proposed. —_————— SAN FRANCISCO VISITORS AT THE ST.

LOUIS, Oct. 14.—Preliminary reports on the awards made to-day by the various World's Fair departments indicate that California will carry off from ten to twelve grand prizes, from 130 to 150 gold medals and about seventy-five silver medals. The work of the superior jury is not finished, s0 few awards can be announced as final. But those made by the depart- ment jurors became known to-day. Of the grand prizes, the collective ex- hibit made by the California counties in the Palace of Agricuiture is to get one. The golden wine temple has been listed for one on the grounds that it is the most classic and artistic exhibit in this bullding. Three California wine firms get a grand prize each. The University of California gets three and the California educational exhibit one. Dried and canned fruits have been granted one grand prize and the forestry exhibit has been similarly honored. Vegetables take a grand prize also. The gold medals are distributed mostly among the county exhibits. Ala- meda is said to have carried off the largest number of these medals, with Sacramento next. Wine, fruit and olive oil all fared well. Nearly a score of wine makers are awarded gold medals. Not one gold medal was award- ed for c¢lives. The jury was composed of foreigners and they say that the California olive, while very fine, has naver been perfected. They are also prejudiced against the ripe olive, which seems to be in great favor in the East notwithstanding. Olive oil takes about a half dozen gold and silver medals. Honey gets two gold medals; vegetables, four or five; hops, three; prunes, three; dried fruits, seven; canned fruits, four. The mining exhibit has carried off a gold medal for the general installation and about ten for individual exhibits. The best California received for grains was a silver medal and that I8 the highest award received here for her butter. Many more prizes are ex- pected from the horticultural department, but these awards cannot be made until the closing day of the fair. Fresno raisins and the Roeding figs took gold medals. Some appeals will be made by Californians, who think their goods did not receive high enough awards, but it is generally conceded that the State has done splendidly in the way of premiums. — ——————————— SAYS HIGH ALTITUDES CAUSE LIQUOR DEALERS COMMEND THE DEATH OF CONSUMPTIVE ACTION OF BISHOP POTTER Resolutions Adopted Praising Him for Dedicating the Subway Tavern in New York.

He wrote this’ book as a gift to humanity. It is YOURS FOR THE ASKING Perhaps you question “Why?'

He wrote this work as a labor of love to point out the way to a cure for all who are deaf. From cover fo cover it is full of the most valuable medical information. It shows how the inner tubes of the ear become blocked up: it explains the strange and terrible ringing. buzzing noises in the ear: it is fllus- trated by the finest of drawings made by the best artists; it points out with truthful and positive hand the way to restored hearing.
