George Osbourne of the late Alcazar is giving away money at the ferry depot. He started in two days ago with $1207 and so far has got rid of but $85. The $1207 represents the gate receipts at g baseball game played in New York between the Fay Templeton and the McIntyre and Heath compa- stage folk who were in want as the here through the Southern Pacific Rallroad Company for the benefit of stage folk who wert In want as the result of the recent calamity. In the telegram transmitting the money Joseph Gottlob, M. B. Mayer, M. Meyerfeld, W. H. Leshy and George Osbourne were appointed a committee to take charge of the money. This committee delegated to Joseph Gottlob flutter |ang George Osbourne the werk of dis- tribution, The Southern Pacific has given Os- bourne & chair, desk and cash register in the temporary passenger offices In the nave of the ferry depot and “bust- ed” actors and financially embarrassed actresses will find him there as long 2s the $120] lasis between the hours of noon and § p. m., except on Saturday, when the office closes at 1 p. m. Osbourne sald yesterday that there was little destitution now in the actor colony. Most of those in distress have been cared for already. “The best evidence of this,” he said, “is that we have used only $35 of this money so far. It would have been better, I think, if it had been turned into the general relief fund. But the people who gave it want it distributed this way and what they say goes.” Since the earthquake Osbotrne has become an exp~rt outdoor stéve bulld- er. He has installed brick ranges for many of his neighbors. All Who have benefited as the result of his mechan- ical skill insist on the actor-bullder being their guest whenever they have real food to eat, Osbourne sald yes- terday. “I am becoming an inveterate diner- out. T have dined out on the doorsteps of people I mest only since the earth- quake and am having the gayest time of my life.” And it may be well for dyspeptic money kings to note that Osbourne ac- quires his appetite for these al fresco JOHN BREUNER COMPANY Company’s Plant in Oakdand |~ 18 READY FOR BUSINESS | Enterprising Furniture Firm Secures Two Temporary Homes Whils Building Mammoth Structures. The pluck, energy and enterprise displayed by the John Breuner Cofn- pany, one of the heaviest losers through the fire in Ban Francisco, bhave placed them In the front ranks of the great commercial institutions that refuse to be either quake or flame. Before the ashes in the ruins of their old home had cooled the members of the firm wers up and doing. They seclired one hundred feet sjuare on the corner of Twelfth and Harrison streets, Oak- Jand, for a temporary store, and on Monday, May 14, they will place on exhibition there a full stock of furni- ture and $25,000 worth of Oriental rugs that Colonel J. H. Orr, manager of the rug department, discovered had escaped the conflagration. In ad- dition to thls temporary homse, the firm has secured a site at the corner of Thirteenth and Franklin streets, Oakland, and commenced the erection of a steel frame building, six storles | | high. In addition to the Oakland store, the firm has secured 3800 feet of floor space on Van Ness avenue, in San Francisco, where the many hundreds of customers of the company will be made welcome. The firm has several desirable bullding sites in San Fran- cisco under consideration, and as soon as a selection is made an army of me- chanics will be employed to erect thereon a modern steel structure, twelve stories high, to become the permanent San Francisco home of this enterprising company. It ig the inten- tion of the firm to continue the occu- pancy of the new Oakiand home it is building, and thus it will be provided with mammoth stores in Oakland and San Francisco. e ————— Rain Damages the Crops. FRESNO, May 12.—Half an inch of rain that fell here has done consider- able damage to the wheat and barley crops. There is an unusually heavy crop of these cereals thig year and the downpour has beaten out the heads of the grain. Cut hay in the fields was also damaged. The bloom was knocked off the grape vines and will cause a diminu- tion of the raisin crop. T IR a R Democrats to Assemble.

FRUIT CANNERS "START UP WORK Gearge Osbourne, the Actor, California Association 15 fo Give Employment to Large Force. Is Now Running at Top Notch. OAKLAND, Md§ 12~With employ- ment in sight for 1000 to 1200 persons, the Ca.u{om:h Fruit Canners’ Associa~- tion, drfven out of San Frantisco by fire, has established central beadquar- ters In its large plant at Fifst and Fil- bert streets,covering two blocks of land. The association has installed its office force of soventy-five persons, has started the cannery with 200 employes and has leased its canmaking plant to the American Can Company, Which hxs also begun operations. The association lost three of its four canneries in Sad Frarcisce, these being the Sansome-street branch at SBansome and Vallejo; the Fontana branch, Bay street, North Beach, and the specialty branch at Vallejo and Battety streets. The office equipment at 204 Pine strest also was destroyed, involving & loss of $30,000, not Including the records and accounts. In the fight to save the freight yards of the Southern Pacific Company throuzgh Townsend end King streets, west from Third, the firemen were victors. The association’s can- nery at Seventh and Berry streets was not reached by the flames, which were checked at the rallroad yards. This carmery was the only one owned by ‘the assoclation fn San Francisce which escaped destruction. It is the intention of the assoclation to Bolds its main office in Qakland for the present. ihe Filbert-street plant's capacity is being increased and will be operated to its full capacity throughout the year without cessation. Two hundred pérsons are at work in the cannery, oxclusive of the office force. As rapidly as increased facili- ties are installed the force will b en- larged until it will reach not less than 1000 persons for many months. The season’s pack was opened on asparagus. Fruits and vegetabes will be handled in thelr season. While the fire in San Francisco lald a heavy loss on the as- soclation, it is by no means crippled, for theré are twenty-seven canneries ‘n the State under the association’s con- trol. ——————— Weds Auto Manufacturer.

The State |needs additional population just as it did before the late unpleasantness, and it is Fee's opinion that while tem- porarily they may -not find San Fran- cisco an agreeable stopping-place, yet there is absolutely no reason why they should not come to California on the usual pleasure trips or to create new homes, and so far as business is con- cerned, take advantage of the great- est opportunities. in that line that have ever been offered. —— O ——— M G-TB S Sequoia Club Meeting.
