Ariay Recraltlag Service. But ten recruits were obtained at the ITnlted States army recruiting depot during the month of April. This Is the smallest number of recruits secured In any single month for-some years. Ten recruits have already been enlisted during the first five days of May, and the outlook Is for a big number of enlistments from now on. This sudden spurt of candidates for. service in Uncle Sam's army is attributed to the re cent calamity In San Francisco, that has thrown a large number of young men out of employment, and in their drifting baok east, and failing to find expected employ ment have decided to take up the army life for an enlistment or so in any event. The character of enlistments thus far during the month of May are good, and the men seera to fill all the physical, moral and other requirements demanded of enlist ments under the present rigid recruiting regulations.

The R. D. Robinson company of this olty has conceived a plan of assistance in what might be termed the foundation work of rebuilding stricken San Francisco, with out at the same time drafting further upon the generosity of the people. The twin catastrophes of earthquake and fire have rendered homeless tens of thousands of mechanics, laborers and work ers. These people cannot leave San Fran cisco, and it would be bad for. the latter it they did, for they are absolutely essen tial to the task of rebuilding the city. But while this vast multitude wait and work they must have proper shelter," says Mr. Robinson. To carry out this plan, a corporation, called the Earthquake Construction com pany, is being formed and the Incorpora tion papers will be filed Monday. It pro poses to construct upon a large scale tem porary homes for the army of workers, renting them to the latter at a reasonable rate. The company will have a . capital stock of Il.000.0u0, divided Into 100,000 shares of the par value of $10 each. This stock will be thrown open to the public sub scription at par and subscriptions will be received for one share and upward. There will be no profits to anyone in its promotion or the sale of its stock, no com missions or brokerage fees. The money received from the sale of stock will be de voted solely to the purposes outlined, ac cording to the company's organisers, Iaa the amount required for legitimate and proper expenses. Although not planned primarily for that purpose, it is expected that the enterprise will prove profitable, so that all who subscribe to the project may do so with the consciousness that they are not giving,' but lending their capital to a worthy and needed work.
