Californian « termination of WHY THE MAINS ARE NoOT CLOSED. Representatives of the Spring Valley Water Com- pany state that owing to broken mains throughout the burned ‘district fully half the water which the company is bringing to the city is escaping and is running to waste through the sewers. In prac- tically one of the basements within the burned district are old connections with the mains which the fire left open. So long as these remain unrepaired the great waste of water must continue. The water company has a large force of men at work closing the leaks so far as it remains in their power, but so-long as the basements, sidewalks and streets continue covered with debris lit- tle or no practical progress ean be made. But the debris cannot be removed, without further com- | every plicating.the.insurance ;problem, until the insurance | companies grant permission. Although many com- panies have done this, others have not, and those that have not in a large measure nullify the effect f If the owner of of the permits of those that have. a given building, insured in say five companies, is granted permission by four companies to clear his lot while the fifth withholds it, the owner’s hands till tied. | This is one of the minor but decidedly. exasperat- ing phases of the insurance situation. Everybody recoginzes that the city has no water to waste, but the mams cannot be closed until the lots are eleared. But owners of property who are delaying the clear- ing of their land for building purposes lest the already complicated insurance situation ' become more complicated are not going to take the risk! that the mains bérepaired. It is unfortunate that | insurance eompanies that have not already granted permission to remove the debris cannot see their way clear to relieve property-owners of a restric- tion that is seriously handicapping all the foreces engaged in the work of restoring the city. SAN FRANCISCO AT WORK. Investigations into labor eonditions in this eit made by the California Promotion Committee, show that last week 20,000 men allied with the building trades were at work. The 20,000 does not inelnde the hundreds of laborers employed by the street railroad companies or by the Spring Valley Water Company, but represents the mechanic class. The largest number of any one craft employed, accord- ing to the report, are carpenters, 7000 being re- ported at work. These are for the most part engaged in putting up temporary buildings in vari- ous parts of the burned district. Although the work of permanent rehuildinz.has' scarcely begun, 500 hrisklayers, 400 plasterers, 500 cement workers and | 5 ) | of flies that infest the city. lis timely, but so far as possible the order should be | between their dollars and their honor. 400 hodearriers were found employed. In the per- manent rebuilding of the city this class will be called upon to do the great bulk of the work, and in the course of a few months their numbers must necessarily be greatly multiplied. Nor is it at all likely that the demand for carpenters will decrease. Thousands of homes must be rebuilt to replace those that were wiped out by the fire, and the great ma- jority of them will be built of wood. All this means great commercial as well as indus- trial activity. Every department of building will within a few months be giving employment at good wages to large numbers of men who must be fed, clothed and housed. The meeting of their demands will go far toward bringing the retail trade of the city back to normal conditions. GEORGE K. FITCH. George K. Fitch is dead. It is more than passing strange that he who had so much to do with the building up of San Francisco should part with us at a fime when the city that was his pride is lying prostrate in its ashes. George K. Fitch, though he had passed the allotted three score years and ten, would have been foremost in assisting in putting new life into the sorely wounded San Franciseo. I loss is one that will be felt by every good citizen of the community and of the State at large. K. Fitch was here in the pioneer days George | and was associated with Loring Pickering in pub- lishing the Bulletin and The Call. In later years Mr. Fitch was assigned the work of editing the Bulletin and Mr. Pickering managed the editorial affairs of The Call. -Theirs was a strong journal- istic combination with intelligent direction and honesty of purpose to maintain it. The newspapers grew powerful in shaping the destiny of San Fran- and in correcting political abuses they be- came the much-feared enemies of the wrongdoer. It was at one time said that no man eould be elected in San Francisco if he were opposed by Mr. Fiteh, ciseo, | as the editor enjoyed the utmost confidence of the| best elements of the community and they voted as| the columns of the Bulletin directed. When The Call and the Bulletin were sold, soon after Mr. Pickering’s death, Mr. Fitch retired to private life, but he never entirely released his hold upon the good people who were influenced by his wise teachings. Tle was never in the open in politi- eal issues, but he in a quiet way used his best en- deavor to guide his friends in the path of honest government, In domestic life Mr. Fitch’s character was ideal. | He was patient, kind and considerate. Iis tender solicitnde for his friends was strongly marked in his individnality. No one of the sons or daughters of the pioneers whom the editor had known in the days of 49 ever made appeal ih vain to him. His advice and influence were always among his friends’ richest assets. T N DETECTIVES ON CARS. Frequent complaint is heard at police headquar- ters of the aetivity of pickpock~ts who take advan- tage of the crowded streetcars to nimbly relieve the unsuspeeting citizen of his eash and jewelry. better opportunity could possibly be offered the light-fingered gentry than the congested condition of streetear traffic in this city, and until it is pos- sible for the United Railroads to better conditions, which the company is trying to do with commend- able energy, it would be well for Chief of Detectives Burnett to defail some of his-plain clothes men for duty on the cars. The mere knowledge that plain clothes men in large squads are watching the cars and their passengers would be sufficient to cause the pickpockets to cease operating. The Board of Health has found it necessary to order the camp kitchens closed against the swarms The action of the board extended to all places where food ‘is prepared for human consumption. The fly has no equal as a distributor of filth and disease germs. Water may be filtered, the greatest eare may be exercised in the selection and the preparation of food, but all these precautions come to nothing if the fly is not eliminated. The screening of the kitchens of restau- rants and even of the restaurants themselves under the conditions that at present prevail in San Fran- cisco becomes a public necessity. And the same is true of private dwellings and clubs. Eustace Miles, the English athlete, journalist and scholar, attributes his good health and mental vigor {to a peculiar diet which he has imposed upon him- self. He eats no meat. This will be construed as another cruel blow for the beef trust. How ashamed our New England ancestors would be of their grandchildren. An English woman, Miss Charlotte Brown, is to cross the seas to teach a for- | getting generation our grandmothers’ art of hand- loom weaving, The Chicago stockholders of the Traders’ Fire Insurance Company are given opportunity to choose And they don’t seem to be having much trouble in coming to a choice. Walter Wellman has started on his fly for the North Pole. The best that ean be wished for him is that it will be possible for the story of his adven- tures to be written by Walter Wellman. Dried-fruit buyers are in the field offering ten cents a pound for peaches and fifteen for apricots. It would take a gold mine to beat an orchard this year. Professor Henry Morse Stephens is to write a his- tory of the recent ealamity. - With Caesarian brevity he might say it came, it saw, it got down to business. The President wants no joker in the meat inspec- ‘tion bill. Clearly he is right. The situation admits of nothing that even approaches a joke. ‘The ery of Macedonia again grows loud and again woes unheeded.

Che little chap was but a few days old when the fire caused the hasty removal of mother and child from one place to | another until final refuge was found in Piedmont. Here a charming little home was procured and the family made Mrs. Driscoll Sr. accom- panying the young people. Then, presumably from the exposure and the emergency diety the insidious fever set in. But intellient care and the rural quiet have had their effect and the patient has weathered ‘the worst and is now quite convalescent. Thomas Jr. is doing finely through it all. d Mrs. Fred A. Woods has taken apart- ments at the Regillus on Van Ness ave- nue for the rest of the summer, giving up her big home on Octavia street. The marriage of "Miss® Elizabeth Al- len and Otis Burrage will take place to- day, the ceremony to be held at 3:30. This is one of the weddings set for Sep tember and would have been one of the chief early fall events, but the service will be very quistly performed in the presence of only relatives and intimate friends. The bride will be served by Miss Su- sanne Kirkpatrick, with Walter Golds- borough attending @s best man. Mr. Burrage is established in Nevada, and after a short wedding trip will take his bride there to live. . . . Mrs. C. F. McDermot was hostess at a large dinner party Saturday night, her guests being the clever young people who took part in the fete last night.

In the United States army the American flag s half-masted on Memorial day until noon, and then the flag is raised to the sunset. THE RIGHT TO VOTE—J. S, City. The fact that a person is a citizen of the United States or of a particu- lar State does inot carry with it the right to vote. Women are citizens of the nation and of States in which they reside, but they are not, except in a few instances, granted the right of franchise. IMPEACHMENT—Sub,, City. Other officers than the President of the United States are subject to impeach- ment. The constitution, section 4, article II, says: *“The President, Vice President and_ all clvil officers of the United States shall be removed from office on impeachment for and on con- viction of treason, bribery or other high crimes ang misdemeanors.” HUDSON BAY COMPANY—R., Ala- meda, Cal. The Hudson Bay Company was organized in 1670 under a charter granted to Prince Rupert and seven- teen others by Charles II. This se- cured to them the absolute proprie- torship, subordinate sovereignty and oxclusive traffic of an undefined ter- ritowy, which, under the name of Ruperts .and, comprised all the regions discovered or to be discov- ered withinthe entrance of Hudsons Straits”™ In 1821 the company obtained A license for the monopoly of trade in the vast reglons lying to the west of the original grant. At that time the company amalgamated Wwith the Northwest Fur Company and ' the monopoly of trade was. held miqjoh}fiy. has been stolen. Why devete so much | nothing is In 1838 the Hudson tained a renewal iteelt alone, which 59 mQ*n .nqk mpany ob- \ Chicago and the great English courts are at outs. “That is Chicago has agreed to disagree with the eminent English jurist, Sir Gorrell Barnes, and his Divorce Law Reform Association. Sir Gorrell claims divorces are too hard to obtain. Chicago declares di- vorce is too easy. Neither Chicago nor Sir Gorrell cares a straw for the opin- ion of the other. Each proposes to get busy and at once crystallize their opin- ions into sound, hard unyielding law. While on the subject of divorce would it not be a good thing, I won- der, for both Chicago and the Divorce Law Reform Association to stop & bit and consider the subject of marriage? Since without marriage there would be masthead and kept there untilno divorces they might incline to give a passing notice to a mighty good cause that so frequently produces such very bad effects.. * Even easier than divorce in Chicago is marriage all over the world. To get married is the easiest favor one can ask of one’s Government. The price of the license, that is all that is required. But to get a divorce, how different? Even in the easiest places much more is required than the price and the consent of both parties. And marriage is so much more serious a proposition than divorce. Then wh: not make it & harder thing to get mar- ried than to get divorced? Divorce is a necessary evil. Nothing is more de- grading than for two people who no longer love each other—provided they ever. did love each other—to continue to live together as man and wife. Nothing is so humiliating as a man and wife who are continually quar- reling. To suffer abuse and maltreat- ment is the quickest way known for either man or woman to forfeit all self-respect. - True, marriage has always and still does stand for that sacred place called home. Love, dignity, honor and self. ‘respect are the safeguard and founda- tion of home. When they are gone home is gone, and it is just as well that the marriage that destroyed them should be destroyed. G \ . s . Since, then, marriage is so serious a thing, is it well that it should be en- tered into so lightly? This remodeling of divorce laws sounds very much like locking the stable doors after the horse BY. X energy and effort to keeping ill-mated m& umfi;-fl Why call the law PEOPLE AND THINGS.

When young people, healthy, industri- ous, without any vices or flagrant bad | habits, of similar tastes and social po- sitfon marry their union is more than likely to prove a happy one. Now and then an exception may crop out to | prove that human nature is change- able and no rule infallible, but it wen't probably be often the case. A kind, thoughtful son and a good, sweet daugater are not likely to prove dis- agreeable helpmates. A man or woman who has no vices is not likely to de- velop vices after marriage. Neither is marriage calculated to make the in- dustrious indolent. Some people maintain that similar tastes and social positions are not ne- cessary for happy marriages. I am inclined to disagree with them. I have seen much unhappiness result from a musical wife whose husband did not care for music and vice versa. I have seen cultured wives and cultured hus- bands suffer great and keen mental tor- ture when their husbands or wives, as the case might be, showed their mental inferiority. -I have seen wives and hus- bands who were fond of social life made | miserabble because their respective spouses preferred a more secluded ex- istence than they. I maintain that in the perfect union the husband's inters ests must be the wife's interest. | cannot see how two people can have the same interests without they have the same tastes.

Even with siimlar tdstes, habits, | position and education human beings (are so different one from the other that | it takes & good dose of love to ke a m and a woman gracefully adapt them3elves one to the other. This process of adaptation is neither happy nor agreeable. In many cases it is | slow and apt to be ‘tedious. It means putting self in the background, and the only way- to do that successfully is io put love well up to the fore. All this should go to prove, T am thinking, that the success of marriage, like the success of a pudding, largely upon the ingredients. That is putting it in a homely fashion.

Even as a child Emperor Willlam was fond of the pomp of militarism. It was a source of great pleasure to the little Prince that sentinels had to present arms to him—so much so, in- deed, that he sometimes did not wait till he was fully dressed, but hastened down into-the court to receive the military honors which he loved so well.

On a visit to the camps in Golden Gate Park yesterday I discovered many evidences of noble work being per- formed. and among them one which par- | ticularly deserves a word of praise. This is a large tent equipped as a free read- ing-room and circulating library, estab- {lished by Mrs. Bainbridge under the auspices of the Young Women's Chris- tian Temperance Union. I was much | struek with the large number of people | who came there to read the papers and to borrow books, and I learned, not with | surprise, that not'a book or magazine | was missing. The one great need there, however, is more books, find as I have none myself I take this means of pass- ing the word along to those who have | some to spare and who would be only too glad to help out, in this way, if but reminded. In this tent, also, are several sewing machines, where women can make up, with the help of those in charge, their own garments, but there is a great lack | of material for wrappers. Plenty of | willing hands, loving hearts, new sew- | ing machines, ete., but no goods to sew. | Among all the tents I visited there was | not anywhere a murmur of complaint, though there were marKs of suffering in many a face, and I would like this let- ter to end without a sting in the tail of it, but just as I was leaving my atten- tion was drawn to something that was not right. At the counter of the gen- eral relief committee’s clothing bureau were three young men instead of women, distributing underclothing and other garments to women and gir¥, | Those youths were old enough to smoke cigars and strong enough for some other kind of occupation, and it oc- curred to me, as it did to all who saw &, that if the work were given to some of the women in the tents it would be more in keeping with the principle of modesty and the “eternal fitmess of things.” f ELLA ROSA HATHAWAY.
