Retiring Presideat Denicke Dis- cusses the Proportional System. He Denies the Assertion That the Board Is Divided and That Secret M:tho's Obtan The annual election of seven trustees to serve on the buard of the Mechanics' In- stitute will take place to-morrow, the | polis opening at 11 o'clock and closing at Heietofore it hus been a matter for | regret that the members of the institute have taken so little personal interest in the question of representation. This | apathy has resulted in the board of airec- tors being almost invariably elected by an inconsiderable percentage of those en- | titled to vote, of whom there are nearly 5000, though, in the words of a leading | member, it also scrves to refute the asser- | tion of c-riain persons that the sentiment of the members is seriously divided and | that there is or bas been any profound dissatisfaction with the management of | the affairs of the institute. | Of the fourteen directors constituting ! the board seven will be elected to-morrow | to hold office for the next two years, and | there are fifteen aspirants for these va- | cancies. Their names are: R. P. Clement, | E. H. Cole, Ernst A. Denicke, F. T. { Doolan, Ferdinand Formhals, Thomas Kendrick, C. A. 'd, John McLaren, , L. E. Puiilips, Charles M. | Plum Jr., J. C. Sala and Horace Wilson. | Of this number M . Denicke is the retiring president, Mr. Kendrick vice-president | and Mr. Formbals ana Mr. Cole retiring | directors. The vote will be cast on the system known as the proportional and preferen- tiad, which is designed to allow minorities to secure some represents'ion on the board. Thus in the preseat instance, shou.d a total of 700 votes ue cast for the seven candidates, one-siveuth of that nomber can elect wne trustee. Prior to 1893 the board was elected by the ordinary method of majority voting, but in that year George Cumminz introduced an amendment to the coustitution providing for the adoption of the new system, and Lis effort was successful. The only attempt to draw up a ticket | for the present eleciion was receatly made by a caucus com posea of such well known nen and me | Huilidie, Cornwa | and ou: ers, who cal ominal cus and afterward issued a circular in which the candidacy of President Den- | icke, Houseworth, McLaren, Kendrick. | Neal, Plum and Sala was earnestly advo- cated. In every other respect the candi- | dates are runmiag independently and in | mutual opyosition. But afier ail, as Mr. { Denicke vointed out yesterda; this very circumstance guarantees the puritv of the | poiits s of ine institute, because no indi- vidual canditate can commit an indiscre- Houseworth, Rodne | Kern, D. A. Macdou Ne | R. W. | tion without exposure at the hands of nis | | opponents. 1 e element of discora periodically in- troduced by L. E. Phiilips, who, it 1s said, bas retired from the contest,is severely deprecated by the majority of tue present board, as well as by the candidates them- | selves. **To refer to the action of the caucus as an attempt to keep alive and perpetuate | the old spoils system is absurd,' said Mr. | Denicke yesterday. *“The nominaiing cau- cus was composed of members of the very highest standing, many of whom have served as president of the institute in the | past. T& are absolutely above sus- picion and would do nothing save in the very best interests of the institute. As far as the election itself is concerned, there has been no disposition so far among the | candidates to indulge in recnmination. “Recent irresponsible charges avainst the conduct of the late board are absc- lutely without foundation. As a matter | of “fact Barry, who, it was alleged, re- ceived so_large a proporiion of ' the Mecha Fair printing, didn’t get a cent's worth. Mr. Presson, the head of the printing committee, is a scrupulously honorable as wel. as a wideawake gentle- man and evervbody who wishes to secure a contract from him atany other figure than the lowest must rise very early in the morning. “It is equally absurd to say that the Grand Army runs the institute. Itistrue that the late librarian, Mr. Wilson, and myself both belong to ihe Grand Army, but the army itself is no more powerfully represented than any other body of citi- ms. Ithink 1 may say with confidence that the interests of ihe institute are as well taken care of as are those of any in- stitate of the kind in the world. “The facts about the late secretary’s re- | tirement also conclusively disprove the | assertion that the board” compelled his | resignation to make room for Mr. Cum- | mingJr. Mr. Culver simply resigned to accept a more remunerativi position as manager of the Cogswell £chool. “The preferential system of voting which obtains at our elections is an excel- lent system when all or nearly all the membe:s vote, but in the same proportion as the percentage of votes cast decreases the syst m loses its virtue. For this rea- | son if no other, it is to be regreited that | so much apathy exists at election | though this shows that the members gen- | erally are satisfied with the management of the institute, and is there ore the best refutation of the accusations against us.’ Joseph Leggett, one of the trustees, said he was suthorized to State on behalf of R. P. Clement, one of the most popular candidates for a vacant chair, that ti.is gentleman does not wish it to be thought that Mr. Phillips is_his friend or on his side of the fence. *“Mr. Clement ciaims,” remarked Mr. Lecgett, with grim sar- casm, “that Mr. Puillips is trying to in- sure his defeat by posing as his supportar. Personaliy, I don’t propose to let Mr. Phillips affect my feelings to the extent of inducing me to follow Mr. Clement’s ex- ample. As for the institute, there is none | better manaved in the country, and I | speak from five vears’ experience.” THE PARK WAS CROWDED. | Traps Performance by an Aeronaut ‘While High in Air. The park and ocean beach were crowded yesterday with fine equipages, cyclers and pedestrians. The weather having been unpropitious for several Sundays, nearly everybody was behind on outing pleas. ures, and so hastened to make up for lost time. Among the teams was a magnifi- cent six-in-hand of browns. The doctors at the ambulance station have had an easy time—they did not have a single call during the last week. At the conservatory there has been a new arrangement of the palms at the en- trance, which makes it even more beauti- | ful than it was eiore.

The Sutro Batbs had a great crowd to witness the sports there. The boys' swim- ming race was won_ by A. Bertrand, with L. Lacazette second. In the 100-yard race F. Beli was first, ana J. Redican second. There was an excellent exhibition of high and fancy diving, a burlesque comedy in one act by Empery and Schulte entitled, “Officer Porter and His Sweetheart May. F. Geddes won the obstacle race and J. Redican the tub race. On the 14th of March the Sutro Baths wiil have a grand son.

Extending R:pidly. | The Hon. Green Majors spoke to and for the Labor Exchange at the public meeting held at Pythian Hall, 909 Market street, yesterday afternoon. He was introduced by J. S. Clark, the State orzanizer of the exchange, who, ina preliminary address, said the financial system of States and nations of the world was not merely responsible for the hard times, but for all the mental and moral obliquity of the world. This financial and it was | system had “wound us up,’” the province and the mission of the Labor Exchange to “unwind us” without regard to politics or waiting for the bLeavy and refractory machinery of the Government. “It is a business matter,” he said, “wherein every man will, upon coming to understand it, immediately see it to his interest to join with the movement. | Among the first great strides it will take toward the emancipation of men is to re- lieve them from the necessity of paying rent.”” He explained that complished through the building of Louses for the members, the siart being made through those who had land de- positing it with the exchange. A man in the audience wanted to know how this could be done. ““Suppose I have a house built,”” he said, “and not wishing to occupy it myself and 'some other brother does wish to occupy it. would he not have to pay rent?" sie inquired. ““Well, you know,” said Glark, “we pro- pose to build a house for the brother also.” owing the applause that this provoked this was to be ac- | Clark explained that this could not be done all at once. “There is not a week passes, however,” he said, “but that some enterprise is begun under the auspices of the exchange, some industry started or some new avenue opened up enlarging the horizon, the area of usefulness and potency of the new sys- tem. Justin proportion as this growth and development is made, <o the exchange acauires stablity and the Labor Exchange check extends its ¢ of operation.”” Anotner meeting will be beld next San- day afternoon at the same place. g PROGRESS fOR iERIN, Branch Seven of A.

Various fraterni- tiesto which he belonged were represented by a number of members who came to pay their last tribute of respect to one whom sll held in high esteem. The services were conducted by the Rev. J. S. David of the Swedenborg Mis. sion Socisty of this City. Afier an appropriate address the monument was soiemnly unveiied while the “Rock of Ages” was being sung, lvd by the Daugiters of St George.

T bel NEVADA FIGHTERS 10 BE CENSUR Loyal Irishmen Say That It Desecrates St. Patrick’s Day. A Committee Will :Indorse the “Monitor’s” Denunciation of the Fight. Progress Mads by the St Patrick's Day Convention Which Met Yesterd y. The St. Patrick’s day convention was in session all yesterday afternoon at K. R. B. Hall, and considerable progress was made toward shaping the celebration in such a way that it will be a success. Incidentally, during the afternoon there was considerable heated discussion rel- ative to the Nevada prize-tight, when a resolution was proposed censuring the managers for desecrating the festival day of Ireland’s patron saint by having a prize-fight on that day. Another proposition that elicited con- siderable discussion was an attack on the Monitor because it has not been advertis ing the proposed celebration, but the pa- per found many warm defenders and all attempts to censure it were futile. The commiitee on talent reported pro- gress and was granted another week in which to select the orator. The names of George Gallagher and David Costello were added to the committee. It was alsode- cided that the committee on arrange- ments shall hereaiter meet every Tuesday night at Hibernia Hall, 120 Ninth street. Thera was considerable aiscussicn on | printing and advertising, and it was de- cided to bili the City thorougnly and pos- sibly extend the same method of adver- tising elsewhere, particalarly in adjacent towns, R. O'Reilly wanted a committee ap pointed to notify ths Monitor that there will be a St. Patrick’s duy celebration in this City. Several delegates thought the Monitor had not treated the convention right, but a number defended the paper and the matter was relerred to the press com- mittee. Delegate Gildea and others enlogized the Monitor and its editor and assured the convention that the paper would do its part at the proper time. Jerome Deasy was in favor of following the Mouitor’s advice in condemning the Corbett-Fitzsimmons prize-fight as a dese- cration of Si. Patri d; He intro- e be appointed > formulate the conven- ! tion’s views on the fight. A spirited discussion followed. Dele- gate Dantel Nichols said: “I want to be honest, gentiemen, and [ think I should like to see the prize-fightif I could afford eve there’s many a heart here that would be glad if the big Irishman would win, and I think it’s none of our business at all. *It's an affair in another State alto- gether, and we've got enough to do to take care of St. Patrick here rather than to be going to some other State and med- dle 1n its affairs.’” Mr. Deasy—We ought liness to condemn this thing, as the Moni- tor sugeested. Prize-fights are on a par with horse races and other forms of cam- 3!!"5, and this is no way to celebrate the av. Delegate Flynn—A prize-fizht is one thing and a prize-fight on St. Patrick’s day is another. \mplv ver cent of the people will agree with the Monitor, and I am tor the resolutions. A motion to indefinitely postpone the maiter was lost and Mr. Deasy’s resolution | carried. The foilowing were appoicted to draw resolutions on the subject: Deasy, Nicholas was appointed, hux he declined ! to act, saying he was unalterably for the | nghz “vand if your L’Wmmlll\!O censures it | you'll get into a battle of argument with | me on this floor.’ Delegate Donovan—We will try to take | care of the gentleman in any argument that may arise. Three of the five committeemen are in favor of the Monitor’s position and their | resolutions will at least censure the fight | for desecrating the day. Just after the committee was appointed, Father James McFadden was in- vited to speak. He thought the conven- tion ought to follow the Monitor’s advice and condemn the fight. The convention cheered him and ugraed to aid him in his lecture at Metropolitan Temple, on the night of March 10. The prize-fizht question ana other mat- | ters will come berore the convention at K. R. B. Hall, at 2:30 next Sunday. MISS EFFIE PERKINI OF SALINAS, SALINAS, Monterey County, Cal. I have never met a more enthusiastia class of people than I did in Salinas, and In fact all through Monterey Couniy. One of the most pleasing gentlemen with whom I talked is Mr. George Perrinl. He told me that he had heard of many re- markable cures that had been effected by the use of Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilia, and that he had occasion to prove this to bis own advantage. Some time ago his little daughter, Effie Perrini, was covered with small sores. A bottie of Joy’s Vegeiable Sarsaparilia was bought and very moderate doses were given to the little girl. Before the entire bottle was exhausted all the sores had dis- appeared and Effie got better. She con- tinued to improve until she is now a per- fectly healthy child.
