AT THE ALHAMBRA MONDAY SEAMEN’'S INSTITUTE. BY. LAURA BRIDE PQWERS. Jack Tar’s an interesting fellow. He's particularly interesting to! women, ‘who feel a’sort of pity for | him—for. such of him as knows no home, no hallowed spot that his| thoughts may hark back to, when the smoke curls up.from his pipe in the fo'castle. So théy've‘made a home for him— here in our big city of homes, at 83 Bteuart street, and called it the Sea- man’s Institute. Here Jack’s made welcome when his ship rides in from the sea. Here he may cast anchor and be safe from the storm and stress of “the coast,” the lure of the tarrying | mariner. Pere at the home are com- | forts, entertainment and companion- ship. Sometimes these hold him— sometimes the tide of temptation runs | too strong. ! Now, it takes dollars to maintain a home. And if it costs a hundred to run a home for two, what do you sup- pose it costs to run a home for 200? The institute must have money for | | its current expenses. Jack must be looked after, mn ey must be on hand to do it. refore a wide-awake coterie of | smart set folk will appear on Monday and night at the Alhambra in vaudeyille, | which will include on_its menu a Rklt‘ said to be very clever, | Mrs. J.

Yes-| | terday J.

After much deliberation the West- | ern Pacific has decided to enter Cali- fornia by way of Beckwith Pass, which will afford the road a grade of {1 per cent over the Sierras eastward bound and eight-tenths of 1 per cent | westward bound. Another announce- meént made vesterday was to the ef- fect’that the arrangements for the ! inancing of the road have been { completed in the East, where the banking firms of Blair & Co., William Solomon & Co. and William Reid & ! Co. have agreed to act as the syndi- | cate manageérs. As stated several days ago in The Call, work on the western end of the new line will be started within a few weeks, immediately after the con- tractors, Flick & Johns, have com- pleted an inspection of the route be- tween this city and Salt Lake City. Point Richmond, by reason of its con- venience, will be the base for supplies. In a few days the local directors of the ngw road will leave for New. York, where the company is to hold a meet- | ing. It is reported on good authority that E. T. Jeffrey of the Denver and Rio Grande road, who was recently elected vice president of the Western | Pacific, will be chosen to succeed Bart- | nett as president and that the board ! of directors will be reorganized to per- mit the financial factors in the big , enterprise to be properly represented. Bartnett is scheduled for the position of vice president and general counsel, making his headguarters in this city, as does Chief Counsel Herrin of the | Southern Pacific lines.

Miss Harrls, who is an exceedingly attractive young woman, resides in a pretty flat with her mother and small brother at 888 Eddy street. She said last night: 1 feel greatly outraged at the stories that have appeared in the papers about me, and the notorfety that the talk has occasioned me. I know nothing of this grarting business. I Dhever met Mr. Andrews but once in my life. That was in his office in the Mills bullding. 1 went there to get a position. I am told he bad a stenographer behind the screen to take down what 1 said. Perhaps he did. I hope he 41a have one. That is ail the better for me. As I am accused of belng mixed up with the grafting bunch, the conversation that 1 had with Mr. Andrews, when made public, will ex- onerate me from any such charge. 1 am going to see this matter to the end. I have no one to help me or to take, my part In any way. I am going to see Mr. Andrews and have the matter fairly and squarely set- tled before the public. I deny empliatically that I told Mr. Andrews tnat I would go to dinner with any one from whom I was ex- pected to draw secrets of the administration. 1 would consider that a ‘“dirty”” piece of busi- ness and I wouldn't stoop to do anything as low as that.

In reply he said: “Oh, sometimes we have two girls working for us, and Sometimes we have four.” He agked me if I was generally acquainted with “'people” around town. I sald I was not. He took my name and address and said if he heard of anything he would let me know. He telephoned to me the Wednesday following, but I had already got a position.
