Millionaire’s
legacy opened
United Press International
SAN FRANCISCO — It rained
and rained for the opening of Dr.
Henry D. Cogswell’s 100-year-old
time capsule, and he would have
thought the weather fitting.
The late eccentric millionaire was
an ardent foe of alcohol.
The opening of the time capsule —
a lead box — coincided with the re
dedication of a statue of Benjamin
Franklin in Washington Square in
North Beach. The box was found in
the statue recently when it was taken
down for renovation.
Many joked that the capsule
would contain a bottle of whiskey. It
didn’t.
Now you know
United Press International
HASLETT, Mich. — More roses
are given on Mother’s Day than any
other time of the year — more than
50 million, or about one-tenth of a
year’s production by the nation’s
commercial rose growers. The
Commercial Rose Growers Associa
tion says roses are America’s year-
round favorite flower by a ratio of
3-to-l, and red roses are the over
whelmingly favorite color.
Cogswell, who died in 1900 at the
age of 80 after founding a technical
college, erected the statue on Kear
ney Street as his symbol for temper
ance.
The statue was later moved to
North Beach — a district where
taverns abound.
Hanging from a tree was a pennant
reading: “Have Courage Boy, to say
No” and “Dare to be for Temper
ance.”
After Mayor Dianne Feinstein
removed the drape from the statue,
the box was removed and city
plumber Lloyd Pool struggled for
five minutes, using the tools of his
trade, to unlock the Cogswell legacy.
At one point, Feinstein pulled out
a small vase.
The box also contained old copies
of Harpers, newspapers, a calendar,
a woman’s fashion book, an illus
trated almanac, a book of poems, a
string of buttons, a plumber’s badge,
a piece of silver and copies of city
laws.
And there was a set of bylaws for
the Ladies Christian Union.
The city placed its own time cap
sule in the renovated statute, but
Cogswell would have objected to one
item — a bottle of cabernet sauvig-
non.

Couple gags on ratty bread
United Press International
TOWSON, Md. — A couple that

loaf of bread has filed a $600,000 suit
against the bakery.
William and Audrey Buchanan
filed the suit Wednesday in Balti

The suit charges that the Bucha

throughout their bodies and suf
fered shock to their nervous systems.
A state health report included
with the suit said a rat was mixed
with the batter, then baked, sliced
and sold.
