< —_—— S —— -~ LY THE FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY. JUNE 7, 1895, THEIR FIRST GRADUATION, Crowds Leave Grammar Schools for Work or the High Schools. SONGS, SPEECHES AND PRIZES, One Bright Potrero Boy Won an Apprenticeship In the Unlon Iron Works. 1 t of the public schools of the City chose Thursday of the closing week of the term for the day of their graduating ex- erc the eight, the exercises of the Potrero ol, of which Richard D. Faulkner is 1e energetic and progressive principal, ad a special and significant character to id to the interest which always attaches e closing days of another educational vear and the farther educational progress that is then emphasized. At the Potrero school, which is in the nter of a purely industrial community, e prize of an apprenticeship in the me- 1anical engineering department of the Union Iron Works was won and awarded amid the features of an entertaining pro- gramme, among which were several :]‘(‘eches by school directors and educa- ors. At the present time the Potrero School marks the greatest advance that has been made in developing industrial education in the grammar schools of the City. For the girls there is a special teacher of sew- ing and cooking as there is in two other schools of the City. In the work for boys the sloyd system has been effectively put 1To operation and the use of tools, wood- ving and industrial drawing are among the things taught. School Director Henry T. Scott, who is the president of the Union Iron Works, has taken a special interest in the industrial work of the Potrero School and the offer of the prize named was the result. Aftera competitive examination among the boys who had pursued the course during the year, it was awarded to Benard Hedstrom, a Potrero boy who is thus enabled to go from a grammar school into the draught- ing department of the big ship-building ‘h\'urki where a successful career is open to im. Ttis the hope and expectation of those who are developing practical education in the schools that many other manufactur- ing establishments will follow the example of the Union Iron Works and so encourage and stimulate this modern feature of the work of thelpublic schools. The graduating exercises of the school | were held last evening at Potrero Opera House which bad been beautifully decor- ated by Principal Faulkner, his teachers and the pupils, and which was crowded to the doors.

Scott pre- sided and the following programme was rendered: s song, “Summer Fancles”; welcome, Margeret Jackson; declamation, selection from Edward Everett Hale, Everett Sweeney; class )ng, “Fiddle and I”; recitation, “The Invent- Wie,” Johanna P.

A Pleasing Entertainment at the Washington Grammar. The closing exercises of the Washington Evening School, under the immediate di- rection of Misses Mildred A, Levy and P. M. Nolan, were held in Baratoga Hall on the evening of the 4th inst. The pro- gramme was one of exceptional metit, and the rendition of the various numbers dis- played to a nicety the manner and profi- ciency of the scholars’ education. The “Denman” and ‘““Washington” medals, for exceptional scholarship, were awarded, respectively, to Ella Courtier and THE REY. H, M, SCUDDER His Very Sudden Death From Apoplexy in Winchester, Mass.

He Expresses His Views at the Lincoln Evening School. “If the financial stress were such that it came to a question of closing the Lincoln Day School or the Lincoln Evening School, 1 should vote for the first,”’ said Dr. C. A. Clinton in his address to the medalists of the Lincoln Evening School. The occasion was the graduation exercises of that school, which took place at 0dd Fellows” Hall last evening. The doctor ptonounced a eulogy upon that school in particular and the San Francisco schools in general. “The schools of this City rank among the first in the land,” said he, ‘‘both as regards the character of teachers and pupils. If it were true, and remember I do not admit that it is, that as it has been claimed, the Normal School has a low standard, does Mr. Murdock think it was improved by importing a youth from Pennsylvania, with a few educational fads, to place at its hefa)d?” r. Clinton presented the Denman Jennie Podesta. The “Bridge” medals were awarded to George Lercke, John Kyne, Thomas Mur- tha, Frank 0’Donnell, Lemon Klarnet and John Porporato. . Charies B.

Dickie, superintendent of the Union Iron Works, compared the building of a man- of-war to the building of human character. “She must go on in her appointed course,” said the speaker, “‘and it is not to waste time in chasing after small things, but to meet and overcome powerful ene- mies, and must therefore be powerful, both | in offense and defense.

GIRLS OF THE BROADWAY. Music and Medals at Miss Sohool Yesterday. The Broadway Girls’ Grammar School, Parker’s THE LATE REV. H. M. SCUDDER. + [From a photograph.] cburch building was crowded. He was a man who never wrotea sermon. He stated his text and spoke extemvoraneously. His style was strong and was liked by the great majority ot those who heard him, but of course there were some straight- laced pe ople who were of the opinion that he wag inclined to sensationalism.” The Rev. Mr. Scudder was a native of Ceylon, born on January 5, 1822, and when 10 years of age he was brought to America by his parents. He, after graduating from one of the New York colleges, studied for the ministry and raduated from the Union Theological College. He went to India_as a missionary and when he re- turned to the United States he was fora number of years pastor of the Reformed Duteh Church of Jersey City, N. J. In 1865 he had a call from the Howard Piesbyterian Church of this City, which he accepted, and the present edifice was erected upon the sugfi stion of D. O. Mills, John Bensley and Eli J composed the building committee. The church was built in 1866 and dedicated January 6, 1867, Dr. Scudder did not approve of the loca- tion and expressed the opinion that the church ought to locate it in St. Ann’s Valley, near Market and Powell streets, where a suitable lot was offered for about $12,000. He believed in the growth of the City, and results show that his judgment was sound. After serving for six years he tendered his resignation, against the protest of his friends, giving as a reason that he had worn himself out. He was offered a vaca- tion of six months with fullguy, but he declined to accept it, and in March, 1871, went to Baltimore, Md., where his mar- ried danghter was living with her husband, au officer of the srm{. He subsequently went to Japan, and then returned to the Miss Jean Parker principal, graduated thirty-five ninth-grade pupils vesterday. Mrs. Kincaid presented the diplomas and Director C. A. Murdock made an address to the graduates. The choral singing was a special feature and the decorations, con- sisting largely of water_color and charcoal drawings Ey the pupils, were .much ad- mired.

THE ERECTION OF THE ALTAR. Consummation of the Sacrifice. The Chops and the Sausages. Not alone in bounding “o’er the glad waters of the dark blue sea” do the pleas- ures of a day’soutlng on the bay consist. The joy the mariner feels in weathering the threatening reef, the exhilaration of sailing close to the wind, yet always keep- ing “everything full,”” the gratification of getting the jib down at the proper moment and rounding to cleverly just over the moorings, are all separate and distinct de- lights, but there is yet another, germain to the perfect harvest of pleasure of a cruise in the harbor. It is the Chilali. y The Chilali, as its name indicates, is of Spanish origin. It is good to eat—so good that gallant Sir Francis Drake himself might have indulged in it on the shores of Tomales Bay with much benefit and com- fort to that’ distinguished navigator. Its origin may, for all the enlichtenment his- tory affords, have extended as far back as Christoplier Columbus. The name of its inyentor is, most unfortunately, lost inthe mists of antiquity. Whoever it was, he was a benefactor to his race and deserving of a monument on every shore where this superb compound has furnished forth the sacrificial feast. The wind is fair and strong, and the yachting party has sniffed the crisp west- ern breeze to the extent of inducing that magnificent and priceless appetite which yachting gives to those who truly love that incomparable pastime. The sun is at the zenith, and even the steep and threatening cliffs at Point Bonita cast no shadows to dull the flashing foam of the waves that lash their iron front. But not among this stern partof the harbor’s inclosures shall the Chilali be consummated. Its altars must be erected on some quiet shelving shore, where the flowing tide laps the sands with soothing and musical welcome, and the sheltering oaks grow close to the water's edge. The operation of rounding to has been neatly performed, and the anchor is dropped. Along the eastern shores of Angel Island, or in any of the pretty coves that indent the mainland to the north, are spots destined by nature for the meetings and celebrations of the Chilalians. 3 The yacht’s company disembark first. It is necessary that all should go ashore except the favored few who are to stand nearest the altar and minister to the neces- sities of the high priest. He comes last with the ingredients close under his own venerable eye. When the boat’s keel rates upon the yellow sands a chosen and of tKe enthusiasts wade out to meet him and receive the.vessels of the feast directly from his hand. They are bare- headed as well as barefooted and their demeanor is as of those fully impressed with the solemnity of the duty intrusted to them. The choir ashore sing a pean as they approach with the treasures. Meanwhile a previously appointed band of Chilalians have scattered along shore and collected chips. The fire is rea Y‘ but no one but the high priest must apply the torch. When the blaze goes up, the first actin the celebration of the Chilali has been performed. The minor acolytes make a supplementary fire, which is’ for the preparation of broiled chops and sausages. These viands have been selected from a host of corn?emors as'alone worthy to succeed the royal dish of the feast. On either side of the high priest the as- sistants engage in theirseparate functions. One wields an egg-beater, another chops young onions and green chilis together, a third slices a judicious mixture of old and new cheese and a fourth prepares the to- matoes, canned or fresh, for the sacrifice The high priest plunges a gleaming cork- screw into the neck of a bottle of hock, and, as its lifeblood x!fm'gles forth, tastes it to prove it_good. e examines his large caldron and his nickel-plated frying-pan. At a signal from him the stokers subdue the blaze and rake up the embers. Then, to slow miusic, the caldron is placed on the fire, and in a moment half a roll of sweet and fragrant butter is hissing and simmering in its highly polished interior. The sacrifice of the Chilali has begun. The skillful and experienced blending of the component parts of this inimitable manna is acquired only after years of practice. The cheese-parers, the onion and chili choppers and the tomatoists serve for many seasons in those humble capacities before they are endowed with the degree of the Order of the Iron S8poon, which is the highest rank the Chilalians can confer. This means high priesthood, the grand blender and compounder of al upon whose shoulders rests the entire responsibility of the sacrifice, and to whom failure means dishonor and disgmce and a reduction to the menial offices of cheese- arer, or perhaps if the failureis excessive- ly gross, to the chops and nuaafe brigade. hen the Chilali caldron is taken from the fire, and its grateful and delicious odors spread broadcast, the society sur- round the high priesi, preserving a grave silence. Each, but in no unseemly haste, extends his plate, in the center of which is a large piece of toast, specially prepared for the occasion by the most expert toast- maker in the City, With his huge ladle the high priest gives to every member his portion. The sigh of intense satisfaction which follows the first mouthful is the re- ward of that great and good man. He seeks no other; his cup of gratification is filied to overflowing. The broiled chops and sausages that fol- low are enjoyed as an agreeable finale. Hot from the coals, they fill those inter- stices of appetite which the grand dish of the feast has left. No one ever dared to eat Chilali to a surfeit. The desire for more is imperatively in accordance with the constitution of the society. The Chilalians never meet more than twice a month. To assemble more frequently around the smoking altar would be to form an attachment for the material ex- istence too strong and endnri%for mortals born to die. Daxtgr O'CoNNELL. CHRISTIAN WORKERS. Success in the Missionary Field Achieved by Two New Yorkers. Beginning this afternoon at 3 o’clock, there will be a convention of Christian workers at the Howard Presbyterian Church, Mission street, near Third, con- ducted by the Rev. A. B. Simpson and Stephen Merrit of New York City. There will be three meetings each day and Mr. Simpson and Mr. Merrit will take some part at each service. Mr. Merrit has a remarkable reputation throughout America, being_one of the leading undertakers of New York City, as well as a preacher of the gospel. He very thoroughly believes in applied Christianity, for at one time during a period of special distress he was feeding 25,000 people daily in the city of New York. Mr. Simpson has achieved remarkable success as a founder of missions in all parts of the world, and ay 250 mission- aries are looking to him for their salaries. They are never disappointed when they trust him to raise the money. B R ot . G S Arnheim Must Answer the Charge. Herman 8. Arnhelm was yesterday held by Commissioner Heacock to sppear before the United States Grand Jury and answer a charge of having used the mails to dun Mrs. Captain | Plummer. According to the prisoner Captain Plummer gontracted & gebt with him of $9 10 in 1891. By the statute of limitation it is now ottlawed, but Mrs. Plummer says that she will not accept that as an excuse, but asserts that the bill was paid in full by her husband long before his death. When the notice of the arrest first appeared in the CALL the initials of the prisouer were given as “W.8.” This was a mistake, as the correct Christian name is Herman S., s given above. e PASSENGER AGENTS. All Have Joined the Union and Only Two Have Not Put Up the Forfeit. A meeting of the Passenger Agents’ Union was held in the Marble Hall of the Palace Hotel yesterday afternoon. A call was made for the $100 forfeit, which each agent joining the union was required to put up to guarantee against the cutting of rates. All those present except two pre- sented the necessary sum. The two com- panies not yet represented in the union are the Northern Pacific and the Great Northern. The aé;ents of both trhese companies an- nounced that they intended to join the union. They were waiting for responses to wlegrams they had sent the main office before depositing their forfeit. The union hasnot yet obtained its offices. A number of Ibcations have been exam- ined. The committee reported that they would probably decide in favor of a suite of rooms in the Mills building. PACIFC - KENNEL - CLUB Its Members Discuss Canine Subjects and Elect Officers. Charges Against Judge Davidson That Were Not Investi- gateds The Pacific Kennel Club held its annual meeting and election of officers Wednesday evening. The election resulted as follows: H. Bfer, president; E. H. Wakeman, first vice-president; Herbert Spencer, second vice-president; Clarence Haight, secretary and treasurer; Horace O’Rear, correspond- ing secretary. The new members pro- posed were: 1. H. Debborn, Lonis Hagan, Dr. F. W. d’Evelyn, L. H. Waldron and T. J. Baxter. T.T.Williams, who in pre- vious years judged some of the non-sport- ing dogs exhibited at.shows held under the auspices of the Pacific Kennel Club, was elected an honorary member, The secretary reported that the club had lost something like $260 on the recent bench show. The number of dogs ex- hibited two years ago was 369 and this year there were only 850. Although the club ran behind financially on the bench sliow venture it has the snug sum of $1200 on hand, a portion of which some of the members thought should be expended on an entertainment that should be a fitting termination to a big venture. After some discussion it was voted that an entertain- ment to members only should be given at some near future date and that a com- mittee consisting of Clarence Haight, T. J. Watson and J. G. Barker should be ap- pointed to make the necessary arrange- ments, Business matters were next discussed and in reigonse to a request from the sec- retary of the American Kennel Club a commnittee of three was appointed to con- fer with the secretaries of the Alameda Sportsman’s Association, Columbia Ken- nel Club of Portland, Or., and the Southern California Kennel Club 'with the view of reporting all violations of the laws of the American Kennel Club to the secretary of that organization. Delegates from the clubs named will meet in this City and any grievances they may have will be reported nceording}! to the secretary of the Pacific Kennel Club, who will in turn report for final settlement to the secretary of the American Kennel lub. There was nothing done regarding the 500 rule, which has created so mnch talk and discussion in dog circles on this side of the mountains. The American Kennel Club is seeminily satisfied to accede to the request of the Pacific Kennel Club in_this particular, provided that the Denver Ken- nel Club isnot included in the list of Pa- citic Coast kennel clubs. A request was vresented from J, B. Martin, a sportsman and breeder of fox terriers, that the Pacific Kennel Club investigate charges that have been instituted against ‘“Honest” John Davidson, the judge of the late bench show, by John Heffernan and G, R. Deben- ham, bit the presiding officer ruled thatas the charges were outside of the jurisdie- tion of the club action could not be taken. It was voted that ‘‘the Honorable” Olar- ence Haight be presented with a suitable testimonial in behalf of the valuable serv- ices he had rendered the club in the past. e Forty-eight English pennies weigh, as nearly as possible, one pound.
