WEEKLY CALL, $1 PER YEAR
IRISH PREPARE TO
HONOR ST. PATRICK
Forty Societies Unite in Initial
Steps for Celebration of
Patron's Birthday
Elaborate Program Planned to
Include Children of the
Parochial Schools
—
Tlie initial steps for trie' celebration
of St. Patrick's day- in San Francisco
were taken yesterday, when more than
r-00 per-sons, including delegates ..from
40 Irish societies met in Red Branch
hall in Mission street near Seventh and
formally opened the St. Patrick's day
convention of 1910. The purpose is to
liold a celebration this year far bet
tor and on a much larger scale than
those of former years, one of tho
proposals being to include In it the
Children of the parochial schools.
The meeting opened with the read
ins: of the reports of the secretary and
varioys committees of the convention
of 1909 With Supervi.vor T. P. O'Dowd in
tho chair. Following: this John D:
Conrlon Sr. was elected temporarj
chairman and the various delegates
five from each society — presented their
credentials.
DH. TOXRH MADE PRKSIDEXT
The election of permanent officers
for the present year resulted in Dr.
J. M. Toner being chosen president.
The election of the other necessary of
ficers and the remaining routine busi
ness will be concluded at a rrfeeting to
be held next Sunday.
While no set program has been ar
ranged as yet the, sentiment is strong
to make the celebration one of the
most momentous of the year in this
city. The plan of having the children
take part in the religious and secular
exercises has been received with a
great deal of . enthusiasm. . These chil
dren were left out of the celebrations
attendant upon the reception to the At
lantic fleet and their disappointment
was extremely keen. By bringing them
into the celebration on .St. Patrick's
day it is thought the youngsters will
not alone be compensated for what they
missed in fleet week, but that the occa
sion will give them a better and truer
realization of the meaning of St. Pat
rick's day and upbuild their pride in
the Irish race.
EVERY SOCIETY REPRESENTED
Every Irish society in the city was
represented at the meeting j'esterday.
There was a common sentiment to start
a new era of St. Patrick's day celebra
tions this_year, the feeling' being that
the numerical strength of the Irish in
the city warranted something above the
ordinary run of such events.
HIGH RATES CHARGED '
ON WESTERN EXPRESS
Official of American Company
Admits Differences
itiEW YORK, Feb. 6. — Express rates
in the west again were under inquiry
Saturday before Examiner Lyon of the
interstate commerce commission.
The hearings here are on complaint
of State Senator Sundberg of Minne
sota, who charges a combination to
maintain high fates between Anaerican,
United States, Adams and Wells-Fargo
express companies'.
John H. Bradley, vice president of
the Ajnerican express company, said
that the rates of his company in Xe
braska were'Jiigher than those of
other companies, that rates in the west
were higher per mile than in the east
and that Nebraska rates were higher
than those in adjoining states.
Fined Under Anti-trust Law
MARIETTA, 0.. Feb. 6.— The Marietta
torpedo company, the Producers tor
pedo company and four officials of the
latter company .pleaded guilty to
a charge of conspiracy in restraint of
trade here yesterday. The companies

Railroad Suits Dropped
LANSING, Mich., Feb. 6. — The at
torneys representing: the state of Mich
igan has agreed with the attorneys
of the Michigan Central railroad to
stop a suit against the railroad for
$4,000,000 back taxes in return for the
railroad dropping its $6,000,000 suit
against the state for revocation of its
charter, under which iT was allowed
to charge 3 cents a mile passenger
A FEW WORDS WITH THE
LADY OF THE HOUSE
The Kitchen '
Modern Method* of .Dish Waaliing —
Dish washing is not looked upon with
any distinct favor as an occupation,
but when one stops to consider the
improvements that have been intro
duced into modern kitchens and the
labor savers and other aids designed
for women's convenience, the process
becomes almost a pastime, especially
when compared with the formidable
task our mothers had to face. .-••:.
There was the murky, : dull looking
iron sink, no hot running water, drain
ing boards, etc., except, those impro
vised, perhaps, and everything repel
lant. * , 1
How different is the white enameled
sink of today with its bright nickel or
brass mountings, plenty of hot and cold
running water, the stationary tubs near
by and every convenience at hand.
Why, such dainty surroundings almost
invite their use, and one is attracted
rather than repelled by the. idea of
washing dishes.
Most housewives have -their \u25a0 own
methods of dish washing. With all sys
tems, however, the best plan when con
fronted by arrays of dirty glass, diver
and ehinaware is to pile them in sepa
rate groups. Glasses will bo freed
from any liquids remaining in them
and placed together, with other glass
dishes, water pitchers, etc. The silver
ehould bo set in, another- pile, . the
smaller china, etc., in a third, the larger
dishes and plates in a fourth.'
I'me l^nrjte, Flnt IMshpnn — A fairly
large dishpan is better than a smaller,
deeper one, and it matters -not whether
the pan be block tin or agate. Having
run on sufficient hot water it should be
made soapy by using the soap shaker.
This is a much.better. plan than "al
lowing a cake of soap to remain in
the water. Indeed, when, this Is done
continually, it takes th« life out" of
tli** soap, and the last half of the. cake
will not yield the same service as tho
fir.«t. : .
As io softening dish water, the best
and most economical \u25a0* remedy I' have
found is a' kind of shredded soap. It
looks like white- castile soap cut very
fine but I have been told that it is
made from cottonseed oil, and for that
reason it does not' chap the hands as
kitchen soap is apt to do. .. ;-,.
In the process ot<washing, glassware
Is put into the water first, and one
may use a mop or a dish cloth in
cleansing the pieces. After a thorough
washing the dlwhes ! should be placed
in a second pan of , warm' water and
rinsed. . ... .
The silver should then be -cleansed,
and as glass must be wiped rWjiile hot,
the silver may be "put- to soak while
the glassware is being dried.. ,
For draining, the intermediate..sta,te
between washing and drying, place the
piei-cs on boards that are about 12
Inches wide and two-thirds the length
of the tubs.* These arc grooved, to

COURT TO RULE ON

Perjury Charge
W'ASIIIN'GTOX, Feb. ? 6. — Attorneys
on both sides of the controversy, are
preparing fof the final determination
by the supreme court of the United
States of the -long- •"",- mooted question
whether rights' to desec,t land entries
may be transferred before reclamation
has been made". .
/.A case involving: that point, has been
set for argument. February 21. At the
same time the court is to" hear argu
ments as to whether it is a' crime
against the United States to .graze
sheep: in a.- forest reservation ' Without
permission of- the government. '\u25a0"""
."The question Qf the right to trans
fer a desert- land entry- arises in a
criminal prosecution. William H. Ham

dicted on a charge of committing per

est of Beulah Rose^Beekler to. the effect
that -improvements of a, certain value
had been made- on: desert "land ~in Im
perial county, California. ,7 . .
cbUHT. UPHOLDS DEFE.VSE
: In defense it was; set up. that the
land in -question had'been entered by
Granville.M.rßoyer August 14; 1907,- at
the land office in, Los Angeles and that
the attempted transfer of his } rights
in the land ;August .26, ; 1007. to Beulah
Rose.- Beekler • was. void because the
right to; make such transfer was ;not
possessed - by ,.-, Boyer. • It \u0084was argued
that, as Boyer did. not possess such a
right, the. affidavit of Hammers , waa
immaterial. \u0084 . .. r- ; '.\ »r '

WAGNER RETURNS
TO MOTOR TRADE
Leaves the East to Take Up
; Local Selling Agency for
\u25a0 , Palmer=Sihger
Three New Models of This Car,
to Be Displayed at the
Chicago Show
R. R. L'HOMMEDIEU
There have been some. changes in the
personn*! of the agency Handling the
Palmer-Singer car within the 'last
week. "W." H. Davenport, who has been
associated with the "Roberts Brothers,
retired from the local concern and goes
south . to/ help handle the Palmer-
Singer, in Los Angeles. His place has
been taken by . \y*. J. "Wagner. , v^
Wagner, it will be remembered, was
prominently connected with, the White
steam car interests in this city some
four^or.flve years aso. At that time
he went east for the White people and
there he was a factor in the automo
bile trade. He has now returned to
the city to go into business for him
self in connection with the Roberts
Brothers. ; >
It' is announced tliat at the" Chicago
show will be seen three new 1910
models of the Palmer-Singer line. One
will be ready immediately; the other
two will be introduced in March. The
first is a new town car. It will be
practically the same mechanically as
the. ' present : town ear? but with a
lengthened wheel base. On the shorter
wheel base it was not possible to have
as great passenger capacity as on the
longer base contemplated.
Tlie other .new models are a Big
Four and a Light Six. The Big Sik,
the Six Sixty, the Little Four and the
Four Thirty have proved themselves
splendid touring models, showing both
speed and endurance, and creditable
service vehicles during- the last three
years. The. need for a Big Four and
a Light Six to complete the line has
been evident to the Palmer & Singer
company for some time. They are now
being road tested and will be market
ed in March.
-The Four Fifty uses a motor of.
5% inch bore "and si,i inch stroke.
It has. l2S inch wheel base and is shaft
driven.
The Little Six will have cylinders of
4 inch bore and 4? 4 inch stroke cast
three in a block. V.wi* ;
