INTERESTING CALIFORNIA LETTER. S. L. Ketring Writes Descriptive Letter of His Sojourn in the Golden State,

Oakland, Calif., Keb. 9, 1909. Editor Journal: ■ Four weeks ago - today we landed in Oakland. During this time we have made several trips to San L raneisco across the bay, 6 miles distant. T he trip is made by cars, on a track on piling, built 3 miles into the bay; then 8 miles by ferry—fare 10 cents. The population of the city is 480,000. It has 850 miles of street?, 264 miles of street railway, 55 banks, 40,000 schools, 156 daily and weekly pub lioations in English, Danish, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Swedish, Portuguese, Chinese and Japanese. ~ " ' San Francisco.harbor is the largest land-locked harbor in the world, having 1,000 miles of shore hue. It has erected since the fire over 1,000 new buildings and remodeled 5,000 old ones at an expenditure of it 108,000,000. West of the city near the Golden Gate, the government has a military reservation of 2,600 acres, one of the best garrisoned seaports in the United States, where Uncle Sam spends millions of dollars annually for the support of his nrlitary establhhments. One of the most interesting buildings visited is the U. S. Mint, which has coined, since it was established io 1854, over $2,000,000,000. The building is plain, but has very substantial walls several feet thick, which withstood the great earthquake. . ' On entering the building two armed guards met us. Next a gen tlemanly guide ushered us to the

Grand Army Dinner. The members of the Grand Army post hereby invite the people of Syracuse aiid vicinity to join them in a dinner at their headquarters in Eagles’ Hail on Saturday, Feb. 27. Everybody is invited to come and bring a basket, and it is desired that all baskets be delivered at the hall by 10:00 o’clock, so that dinner may be served at noon. There will be music and some short speeches, and a general good time. No special invitations will be sent out, but every citizen of the town and country will be welcome, and the old soldiers will bs gratified to have a large attendance.

Sleet Plays Havoc. The heavy sleet of Saturday and Sunday night did quite a little dam age to the lines of the Syracuse Home Telephone Co. and the Syraouse L,ight and Power Mf’g. Co. Some of the wires and several poles of the telephone company were weighted to the ground while the lead wiie of the electrio ight company was broken in twain, leaving Syracuse and Milford in darkness.

reoeption room and required us to register, after which he showed us through the different rooms where we witnessed the operation of coining, assorting, weighing and counting gold and silver coms, they having just recently received a shipment of $30,000,000 from the Philippines which they were melting and re-coining for our brown brothers in the Orient. Each visitor is allowed to purchase two centavos for souvenirs—these can be seen at the bank after my return. A short time ago the coin in tbe mint was counted and amounted to $400,000000. Our guide informed us that the carpet m the filing room was recently burned from which they secured $9,000 in gold dust. In this room 84 women are engaged in weighing the gold coins, and those that are too heavy are filed upon tbe edgi until they are of the required weight, while those which are too light are -returned to the melting room to be melted over. Tbe twenty dollarpoins are stamped in a machine that subjects them to a pressure of 150 tons. Chinatown, with a population of 65,000, is another place of interest. This part of the city was entirely destroyed by earthquake and fire, but the old buildings have all been replaced by new ones, mostly of the Oriental style of architecture. Many of their stores are filled with very fine and expensive merchandise from China and Japan. One merchant informed methathis stock was worth over $1,000,000. They just celebrated their New Years, which begins Jan. 21 and ends Feb.

4Still another place worthy of note is the crematory, situated on a hill in Oakland. The grounds have beautiful walksand driveways, lined on each side with oalla lilies now in bloom. Tbe association has recently completed a new columbarium for The reception of the ashes. The building is fire proof and as beautiful as money oan make it. Thousands of niches are for sale at prices ranging from S2O to SBOO, for tbe benefit of those wishing a perpetual resting place for the ashes of their dead. The time required to cremate a body is about two hours. The active and consuming agent is simply air, a white heat raised to a temperature of over 2,000 degrees Fahr. The expense of incinerating an adult body is S3O; a child, from sto 15 years, sls; an infant from birth to 5 years, $lO. This includes use of chapel, organ and service of organist; also a copper receptacle, or urn, for the ashes. The body is always incinerated in the coffin just as received, except that the trimmings are removed. The ashes of the, casket and clothing are blown away by a strong current of air, these being much lighter than bone ashes. It is my opinion that most people, after visiting a crematory, will decide that cremation is the more rational way of disposing of tbe dead. Just a word about the weather for the finish. It recalls James Russell Lowell's poem, beginning, “And what is so rare as a day in June?” , Yours very truly, S. L Ketring. .

Attempt to Burn School House Incendiaries attemped to burn the Pierceton school building, recently by plaoeing a lard can filled with old clothing and fire wood thoroughly saturated with coal oil on tbe roof, and then igniting it. Fred Wiley noticed the blazing oan and turned in an alarm then climbed to the top of the building and extinguished the fire; the perpetrators of the crime are strongly suspected and the affair will be probed to the bottom by the sobool authorities.
