CURIOUS COSMOPOLITAN RESTAU
RANTS ON THE COAST.
One Mr Dine In the Stunner of TMtTrr
ent Country Kvrry Night In the Work,
A Dirty Italian Rmtnarnnt on the Wiilir
Front Hint I. Vrrr rnpalar.
One of thn features of cosmopolitan
Ban Frnnolsoo I Its restnnrnnts. Every
forolgu colony lioast of a place whcro
its nntivo cooking cau be bad, and ad
venturous San Franciscans who onro to
look those plncos tip can dine in the
manner of ft different country every
night in the week. If an elaborata Chi
nese dinner, with its numberless impos
sible conrsos, each accompanied by
sweetmeats, proves nnnttrnotivo, n Ha
waiian dinner, with poi mid salted fish,
can bo had by walking n few blocks.
For tlioso who liko highly spiced din
nets thuro uro the Ituliau mid Spanish
rofcluuruuts to chouse f torn, and for thoso
with small appetites, who look for nov
elty in service, there are the Turkish
restaurants, with their nnpronounceiible
dishes mid delicious colTou.
Tho most popular of the foreign res
tnurants are the Italian. Thorn urn sev
eral of these scattered nbout tho Latin
quarter, which are much frequented by
San Franciscans on account of I lie excel
lencn of tlio cooking. Most of them nro
dirty, very dirty, as to floors and wall,
and tho ItaliaiiH nro not overxquoamiNh
regarding the lablu lition. When u parly
ot Americans enter, however, there is a
general hIiiiIHo among the waiters to se
cure tlio servico of tho table nnd tho
prospective tip. Tho question of piece
deueo being settled, tiie wiuo stained
tablecloth in w hisked off and repbieed by
ouo not always newly laundered or elou
suspicion -ly dump.
Theso restaurants nro rarely on tlio
miiiii streets mid have to be approached
throng 1 1 dark alleys. One situated lie
liind ilio oounly jail occupies the back
room of a small Italian grocery store.
In going thero one is reminded of dark
deeds nnd sharp stilettos, but the din
ner is worth tho journey. Tho chef of
this place in famous for cooking 'Italia
rini," n pii-uu made by himself ami cut
ill strips and cooked with a saueo made
of tomatoes, spines and mushrooms.
It is extremely rich uud very peppery,
but nil Italian dishes nro strongly dashed
witli chili poppers.
'i'ho dinner is attended with gvcut
ceremony. A bottlo of their sour claret
is served witli each diuuer. Every Ital
ian driuks about two quarts of it with
bis dinner, so tho bottlo supply some
times runs short. In this event tho
waiter goes to tho bar, fill Is an empty
bottlo from a demijohn, drivesiuaoork,
and then carries tho bottle to the table
whero it is needed, sometimes four feet
from tho bur, and impressively produo
iug bis corkscrow draws tho cork at
carefully ns though ho were handling the
finest burgundy. His demeanor is so se
rious throughout tho porforuianco that
one dare not look nmubcd.
A very popular restaurant is Baz
curn's, which is situated near the water
front. This is greatly patronized by the
Italian fishormen, who file in nfter their
day's work, still woaring their gum
boots and smelling strongly of their
craft It is also frequented by tho Ital
ian vegetable gardeners, who diivo iu
from the outskirts of town, and after dis
posing of their stock stop to dine. When
the place is reasonably well tilled, there
is a babel of voices. They are all talk
ing at onoo, and ont of tho confusion
tho word "soudi" isdistiuguished above
all others.
. This means money, which the pro
prietor says, with a shrug, "they talk
about all the time, all the timo. " The
fishermen bring the best of their day's
catch bore, nnd the gnrdonors offer thoir
oboioest vegetables. The chef, whose
kitohon is back of the dining tables and
In full view of the room, is a merry fel
low, and between bis juggling feats, toss
ing bis pan into the air to torn the cook
ing fish or meat exchanges gossip and
iests with the diners. This place Is
;ept comparatively clean. The floor is
covered with sawdust and the ceiling
festooned with gandy colored paper ont
in fanciful designs. Two parrots add to
the general din, and all sorts and con
ditions of oats prowl around the floor.
The restaurant is oonduoted by two
brothers, one of whom waits on table,
while the other attends bar and looks
after the cash reoeipts. Every Italian
after dining stops at the bur for a chat
and a drink. Instead of a liquor, the
host pours generous glasses of claret for
himself and bis guests, and these are
speodily tossed off . A casual visitor, aft
er witnessing this oeremony about 2S
times in quick luooossion, is apt to grow
nervous about the health of the host,
but he appears none the worse for his
conviviality at the end of the evening.
The younger brother somotiraos relieves
bis brother at the bar. He is quite as
hospitable, and his invariable drink be
ing absinthe and seltzer his oaso eooms
even more alarming.
This restaurant, at 7:80 iu the even
ing, when dinner is in full swing, pre
sents an odd sight, the Italians Bitting
around the tables, most of thorn with
their hats on, gesticulating and talking
ezoitodly across tho room, while they
toll the spaghetti round their forks and
dexterously transfer it in yard longthi
to their months. A butcher, with all
the marks of his trade about him, ooou
pies a table with the polioomon on the
beat who gets the best service of all: a
tow men anont town, wno nnvu nntru m
the chef's fame, and forgot tho unsavory
looking company in their enjoyment or
the plates, and often a tublo or two taken
by young society girls with their chap
eron and escorts. Tho girls consider n
dinner at Bazzuro's a tremendous lark.
Tho Americans do not venture on tho
claret so generously served with tho din
ner. A flask of Chlautl is orderod iu its
stand, and tho proprietor always proiTus
tho empty flnsk to tho ynnngest memlier
of the party as a souvenir. Suu Fran

It is literally true that the vory poor
of Loudon and other English cities have
been compelled to ninko deliberate
choice botwoon food and fuel, and it has
been ft bitter dilemma for many thon
snnds of destitnte English, Irish nnd
Scotch fnmilloa In tho lastfow week".
Reports of tho snfTering in northern
cities are oven worso, for tho cold there
Lns boou much more severe. Thus in
Glasgow nlono 40,000 men nro idlo and
ilostitute. Tho police are almost unable
to cope with tho groat throngs of fam
ishing woinou nnd children who clam
or for food at tho soup kitchens nnd
other places whoro a partial supply is
obtainable. The starving multitudes iu
Liverpool aro ovon greater, and pitiful
recurs occur daily at tho places wheru
most inadequate attempts nro mudo to
distribute small supplies of food. Tho
socialists have opened n soup kitchen
tl.no, unci n correspondent sends an ite-
cuunt of a typical bcciio yesterday ufUr
uoou. About 8 o'clock the largo open
spaco was crowded with men, women
and children, whoso Bufferings from
hunger wore intensified by tho piercing
cold wind which swept ncross tho local
buy of Biscay as if coming from tho re
gion of icebergs. Women clad iu unwo
manly rags sbivored and cowered boforo
tho blast, thoir feet numb, their faces
livid with cold nnd want, while tiny
strove to find protection from tho wind
by gathering thoir thin ragged garments
closer. A largo number of spectator as
sembled on tho outskirts of the square,
tho crowd including magistrates, ship
owners and other prominent citizens.
Tlio sights wero harrowing. The si l.iu;
blo for bread by tho famishing crowd
was pitiful.
Tho socialists' soup kitchen begun
operations at the usual hour and doled
soup and broad continuously for over nu
hour. Tho food was wolilshly devoured
by the hunger stricken people, who
could not bo fed fast enough. Several
vans loaded with broad cmna np while
tho soup distribution was proceeding.
Thero was such a rush for the bread
that tho socialists found it impossible to
carry out thoir benevolent intentions in
an orderly manner. Iu sheer despair they
pitched tho broad into tho ranks of tho
starving mass. Thon ensued a terrible
scramble. Women and children wero
knocked about, tho strong bearing down
tho weak, some going off with thrco or
four loaves, others left without any
thing. Tho second cart came whilo tho
soramblo round the first was going ou.
Tho crowd surged round tho now arrival
so that anything liko a fuir distribution
was out of tho question. Thoso in tho
van were pitohforking broad ou tho
heads of the peoplo when the police
camo up and took charge Tho crowd
was formed into lino, nnd a moro effect
ive systom was inaugurated. Through
out the af tornoou the osplanado was tlio
scone of bewildoring exoitemont. A
poor widow, with a child in her arms,
after considerable waiting, got to tho
soup kitchen. Overcome by hunger, sho
sank down on the pavement, holding
fast to tho soup bowl, fearful lest a
drop should be spilled. Ultimately sho
revived somewhat and began to food
the child, which ate the soup ravenously.

A GAY OLD BEAU.

The sensation at St Petersburg is
M. Ivanoritoh. This gentleman is the
well known septuagenarian manager of
the Imperial bank, and despite his age
and worldly wisdom and business aoute
ness he has fallen madly in love with a
young and pretty Frenob ballot donoer,
whose stage name is Mlla Petitpas. The
lady is sternly virtuous, however, and
as M. Ivauovitoh has a wife and grown
up children the oourse of this love runs
anything but smoothly.
All St. Petersburg is intensely inter
ested, for the amorous old banker has
not let his love bloom uusocn. Ho has,
in foot, proclaimed it, aud every man
in the street knows all about it Ivauo
vitoh will, if uood bo, turn Turk iu or
der to marry little Petitpas. Meanwhile
that young woman is not at all averse
to wedding the millionaire. The mere
prospeot of such match has already
gout up hor artistic value 60 por oent, so
that she stands to win anyhow, even if
the diamonds lavished upon her by hor
doting old lover be not oouuted. Ivauo
vitoh is now endeavoring to persuado
bis wifo to agree to an amioable divorce,
in oonsidoration of which he undertakes
to settle 1,000,000 rubles upon her.

WATER LEVEL IN THE LAKES.
pecitlntlnn to tlin Reatitt of Opening
the Chicago Drainage Canal,
Tho probnblo effect of tho opening of
tho Chicago dralnngo canal upon tho
wnter level of tho great lnkos lins been
tho subject of discussion over slnco that
tremeudous projoct took shapo. A cry
of alarm was raised several years ngo
when It was announced that tho diver
sion of water from Lnko Michigan in
imythlng like tho quantity required to
fill the cnnnl then being constructed
ncross Illinois to the Mississippi valley
would sorlously interfere with tho navi
gation of tho St Clair and Detroit riv
ers nnd ronder it lmposlble for hoavy
drnft vcssols to enter most of the har
bors on tho lower lnkos. Tho Chicago
engineers hnvotflono their bestovor bIuco
to dispel thnt belief. They have main
tained that tho taking from tho lakes of
all the water that will evor be required
for tho canal will not lower the lnko
level moro than thrco Inches, and tho
Chicago newspapers linvo all indorsed
tho opinions expressed by tho Chiongo
engineers, as n matter of conrso.
Professor O. Frederick Wright of
Oborlln collcgo, who has perhaps mado a
more careful study of tho geology nnd
geography of tho lake region than nny
other man iu tho United Btntes, does
not ngreo with tho Chicago engineers,
however. Professor Wright shows that
tho quantity of water required to bo
turned Into tho dralnngo cnnnl when it
is first opened will be equal to about C
per cent of tho qnnntity that now flown
over Nlngnrn. When tho population of
Chicago rrnchos 8,000,000, tho law un
der which tho cnnnl was constructed
provides thnt tho qnnntity of water
passim' through it shall bo doubled.
Thnt monns thnt nt least 10 per cent ns
mneb wnter ns now passes over Niagara
will bo diverted from tho lakes to tho
Mississippi. Major HnfTner of tho corps
of engineers of tho United Stntes nrmy
estimates thnt. when tho drainage cnnnl
is first opened tho result will be to lower
tho level of Lakes Michigan, Huron and
1'rln nnd tho connecting rivers nt least
niuo inches, and that when tho canal is
operated to its full capacity tho fall In
tho wnter level will bo 18 Inches. Thta,
Professor Wright says, may bavo but
little effect in tho rniny senron, but dur
ing the Into summer nnd nutumn bo Is
certain that it will seriously interfere
with navigation. Ho doclarcs thnt tho
vessel owners and all who aro interested
in tho commeroo of tho lakes should
ronlizo tlio dnnger nnd do nil tlioy enn
to avert it. As a preventivo monsuro ho
suggests thnt n dam be constructed
ncross tho lower end of Lnko Superior
nt tho "Soo, " which will rniso tho lovel
of that lako two feet nnd storo enough
wnter during tho rniny senson to srtpply
tho lower lakes during tho lute summer
nnd fall.
Professor Wright soys thnt tho lovel
of tho lnkos is suoh that if tho continent
wore to dip 60 foot to tho west all tho
wntor which now goes over Ningnrn
would flow over Illinois and into tho
Mississippi, nnd if tho dip wore 100 feet
to the north tho wntor ot tho lnkes
would go through Lnko Nipissing iuot
the Ottawa river, and the Ningnrn
would become dry.
Certainly his suggestions aro worthy
tho attention of lako mon and vessel
ownors, and an investigation should bo
started to dctormino whnt the nctnnl
offoct of the opening of the Chicago cn
nnl will bo. Chicago ought not to bo
deprived of this moans of disposing of
its Bowngo, but if tbore is any wny of
preventing such a sorlous interference
with the navigation of tho lower lakes
as is throatoued notion should bo tnkon

WHY WOMEN MAKE POOR DETECT IVta
A Secret Rervlre Man "h.vs the Oppmltr

"Women are not good detectives,"
said an experienced secret service man

tho outset, but beyond this womnu in

"In tho first place, the jumps at a con
clusion aud acts on it in opposition to
all human probabilities, possibilities
and reason. As a rule, a woman does
not reason. She looks on a thing ns she
wants it to be or thinks it ought to be,
and will follow that theory. Sho is led
by prejudices, favors or sympathies, ro

"As a detective she is sometimes a
suoooss in entrapping a man, but her
work generally ends in a blunder which
betrays ber. She is persevering only
when moved by passion. She dees net
look at a oaso dispassionately. Sho at
once decides that he or she is guilty or
innocent nnd works on that theory.
"A woman enjoys tho mystorions, and
sho is so elated nt ber posltiou as dctect

"Women nro even failures iu running
down criminals of their own sex. A

Tho science of bridgo building olearly
points the way to the art of bridgo
building, which is simply truth. We

We are beginning to grasp the idea of

a splendid cnntalover of 400 foet longer
