THE SAN FRANC ISCO CALL, MONDAY, MAY 21, 1906. YACHTING RACE SEEMS ASSURED {Commodore Macfarlane Will Start, Even if Alone. Coast Officials Agree to Look After Plans Here. Commodore Macfarlane of the Ha- | waiian Yacht Club says there will be |a race between this city and Hono- 1 only his yacht La Paloma faces the starter. The race may not dwindle | down to these pitiful proportions, as it { Is possible the Lurline and one other boat will start. | The La Paloma has been placed on i the ways, where the damages caused | by the buffeting of the waves on her | Journey to this city will be repaired. She will be strengthened wherever | | possible for the return trip. H | Secretary R. R. I'Hommedieu and | the other officials of the Pacific Inter- | | club Yacht Association have agreed to | | handle all the details of the race which | may develop here. They will consuilt { with Commodore Macfarlane and will | | announce the date soon.

The stake is $30,000. Among those that will face the starter are two former Brooklyn winners, The Picket, which captured the great stake two years ago from such horses as Irish Lad and Hermis, and Delhi, which finished in front of a good fleld tn 1905. Neither of these thorough- breds is looked upon with much general favor for this running.

CHIGAGO'S RISE | - \FTER THE FIRE {Half of the Buildings Replaced Within a Year. Too Great Haste One Feature of Recon- struction. The story of Chicago Is told over eagain in the dispatches from San people and their planning for the fu- ture, says the Chicago Record-Herald. Temporary structures were put up | here in the burned district within a { few days after the great fire of Oc-; | tober 8, 1871 Within six weeks more { than 200 substantial buildings were being erected downtown, and by the frontage that had been destroyed on the South Side was rebuilt. Some | conception of the activity displayed may be gained from the following tract which Is taken from an old peri odical of December, 1 “The finishing touch | ing” placed upon hundr [ficent stores—too mdgn | croakers say, for business to be dc {in them remunerativ The | most conspicuous o new bui 1e Rock Island Rallway depot, nd Pacific Hotel and the Sher- man House—have lately reared their domes above all surrounding res, and their architecture is the subject of general admiration.

But work was good or bad, an enormous amount of money was expended, total on the downtown g to more than thirty- t millions. at was satisfactory proof of con- e and optimism, and soon 10r of the people siggs above the 1 0libt reappear ons in San Francisco. in the late fall of 1871 was anything but cheering. There was a hard winter ahead, which San Francisco is fortunate in aping. { It meant both suffering and delay. Late in 1872 there was an unforeseen stroke of bad luck, which also tended to retard building operations. This jwas the appearance of the epizooty, ] which made Invalids of the horses in | the city and caused a suspension of | business. On this subject the maga- | zine already quoted sai | “The first two weeks in November \ would, but for this eplzootic misfor- tune, have been the busiest and rich- est in results of any fortnight since the city had its existence. Instead of that 1t became the most futile and barren week of the season. No horses to haul, therefore no brick and stone to lay. No brick and stone, no work done, let workmen be ever so willing. | And so. by the time the horses had got their heads clear and their limbs lithe again, the best of the fine fall weather had passed away, and the hopes of many a builder to get his edifice ready for temants by New | Year’s, and to save walting until next |1st of May for rents, were rudely nipped as by an untimely frost.” | The paragraph is suggestive In sev- eral ways. It emphasizes the difficul- ties that were experienced from win- ter weather and reminde us of changed conditions that are due to the im- mense progress of the last thirty-five years. Neither San Francisco nor | Chicago would be so dependent on | horses now as Chicago was in those 1633'!. Prophecy had risen under the influence of the epizooty to the in- lerlng declaration—"the introduction { of steam or compressed alr upon the street railways of Chicago, in lleu of | horses, is only a qliestion of time”— but it had no visions of' cable traction, electric rallwavs and the automobile. It knew nothing of the modern meth- od of steel construction, Building is a revolutionized industry’ and San'rFancieco will profit greatly by tha revolution. What with that and buoyancy and energy of her peo- ple, we may expect a marvelously | rapid@ new traneformation from deso- {lation to a stately city far surpassing the old one. he progress will be |messured by months, not years. | e The California Safe Deposit and Trust Company will advance money on insur- ance . policies.

Ruler Intends to Spend Part of Next Autumn at Castle. SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL. LOGNDON, May 20.—King Edward, I have lcarned from a scurce unusually | well-informad in Court matters, wiil spend a month or six wecks next autumn Kylemore Castle—but not as the guest of the Duchess of Manchester. To | sentertain his Majesty there was at one ume the American Duchess greatest ambiticn, and many will recall what prodigious preparations she made last; year in anticipation ot realizing her fond-| est hopes. And great was her disap-i pointment when the King concluded his Visit to Ireland without accepting her hospitality, When ne does arrive there it_will be as her ienant. For some time past the Duchess has been trying to lezse the place, as she finds the allowance her father makes her insufficient to kcep it up in the style she started to maintain, for she speut a mint of money in furnishing and decorating it. But Papa Zimmnerman won't increase it, tor he is of the opin- icn that he pa quite as much as it is worth for the privilege of having a Duke for a son-in-law. Wnen King Edward heard that the Duchess wanted to get k)iemore ot her hands, he told Consuelo Duchess of Man- chester. one of his most intimate wo- men friends, that if her daughter-in-law ; was willing to sell it outright, he would like to acquire it as a royal residence in Ircland for the Prince and Princess of Wales. He was told that she would be very glad to let it, but as to seiling it—not even to accommodate Royalty would she part with what was a giit to her from her father. As a royal resi- dence would of nccessity have to be n permanent one, the King abandoned his original idea and decided to take the place himself for the term of his pro- Jected visit to Ireland. The Duchess greatly regrets having to leave Kylemore, for she much prefers it to Tanderage, the Duke's own Irish ancestral castle, but while Zimmerman remains obdurate there is no help for MRS. REID TO ENTERTAIN. Bvery one here is talking of the great ball which Mrs. Whitelaw Reld intends to give at Dorchester House in the height of the London season, the end of | June. Now that people are beginning to understand the kmbassador's wife ihey are growing to like her better, But just at first shy was regarded as far too ex- clusive for an American. We like Amer- cans to be, s0o to speak, ‘“hail-fellow- well-met.” Even h most _intimate friend could not apply this definition to Mrs. Whitelaw Reid and we resented her frizidity. Another . thing English people say of Mrs. Reid is that a2t all her parties, whether .at West Park or Dorchester House, the American ele- ment is perpetually to the fore. The Stars and Stripes are,' figuratively speaking, always fluttering in our faces; it is absolutely impossible to get away from them. Then again she is everlast- comparing English wavs and Eng- toms with American and always letriment of the former. Never a more patriotic American woman than she it! Te are heaps of titled wouldbe crs for the hand of her pretty lit- daughter, but they receive no en- c Whitelaw _Reld, | whose heart is centered on Miss Refd’s | marrying a man of her own nationality. | But it sald that the Embassador him- If would be rather ple e to see his girl mistr the stately homes of 3 SALE OF DORCHESTER HOUSE.

Of all the millionaries’ abodes in | TLanc there is not.cne to approach Dorchester House in eize or magnifi-| { architecture. Just now with s fortune behind it, it is looking majestic; comfort gleams from every ~window; ' daintiness and refine- ment represented in a weaith of color and flowers attract the eye of every passerby, while above all flutters the United States flag so dear to the hedrt of Mrs. Whitelaw Reid. i The ball already referred to will in all| likelihood ‘be a real house warming, as by the time it comes off Dorchester House wiil have passed definitely into, the hands of the American KEmbassa- | dor. The latest Information to hand is that there is some doubt as to Mrs. Lonzworth’s visit in June, an event for than other- of one of Holford, jlete which the great festivity was in the first iistance arranged. However, [ have it on the best authority that whether the Longworths come or not he ball is to take place. Mrs. White- daw Reid is asking over many of her American relations and _friends to it.

MACKAY HOUSE DISMANTLED. In view of the trouble in Paris, Mrs. Mackay has had her famous house there completely dismantled. It was full Of arL treasures—pictures which once hung in_Versailles, Gobelin tapestries, Sevres china, Carara marbles and fur- niture of the first empire, Which 1§ priceless. It was Mrs. Mackay's ex- press wish that her valuabl¢ things! ® wld be removed as quietly as possi- bie and hor desires were mcst success- ! fully carried out. The greater portion of ihess precious belongings are now at her London house in Cariton House ter- | race and the remainder is stored. Mrs.| Mackay was told several weeks ago that it was most essential she should take this step as there wcs bound to be trouble in Paris, if not at the moment, most assuredly in the immediats future. Jcecording to present arrangements these things are to remain in England indef- nitel» and her house on the Bois, which is now closed, may not be reopened for a yedr. Meanwhile, Mrs. Mackay. will entertain in the magnificent styie' for which she is famous at Carlton House | icrrace, where her sister, Countess Tel- | feser, and Mrs. Mackay’s youns grand- | daugater, who is still = bride, will be| among her gussts. Mrs. Mackay and William Waldorf Astor are great rivals in' concert giving. Every London season each tries to out- do the other in the number of “'‘Stars” who appear at their musicales. Onc: it =o happened that each had arranged A& concert for the same evenirg and | Astor finding that Mrs. Mackay had se- | cured the services of Paderewski made the great vianist an offor of an extra! $1500 if he would throw over Mrs. Mac-| kay and come to him. This Paderewski| stoutly refased and the offer was in-| creased to §2500, but this was again re- | | ‘ jevted. the musiclan sending back word | that “not all Mr. Astor’s money woull| eior induce him to break his pledge. to a | lady.” When Mrs. Mackay heard what | had occurrzd she check for $5000. i Coneert giving in private houses is the’ most luxurious form of entertalnment because of its enormous expense, and of late vears very few cared to spend the immense sums which it involves. The glory of tr2ating their friends to Malba. sent the pianist ul | Jean de Reszke, otc., has rested almost exclusively with Mrs. Mackay and As- Jtor, wko each makes a point of enter- teining his or her friends twice each summer to a programme which includrs half a dozen stars of the first magni- tude in-the operatice and concert world.
