Riassunto

Bg Sjufort Sjaro j Battrnift THERE had been some discussion as to improving and beautifying the city of San Francisco prior to the catastrophe of A pril 18th. Landscape architects had been consulted, proposals considered, and preliminary plans drawn. Therefore when on that day the city was swept by fire, obviously it was the opportune moment for the requisite changes in the rebuilding. Eor a brief period enthusiasm waxed warm. It helped to mitigate the blow, this fencing with fate. Let the earth shake, and fires burn, we will have here our city, better and more beautiful than ever and more valuable an imperial city of steel it shall be, and thus will we get even with the misfortunes of this day.
