SOME INTRUCTORS TROUBLED. He Will Now Investigate Every ‘ Certificate in the De- partment, ALSO AFTER THE EVENING SCHOOLS. Direotor Burns Split Up the Bills to Save the Cost of Advertising for Bids, ? Superintendent of Schonls Webster has several rods in pickle for the majority of the Board of Education and some others, One of the latest discoveries in the line | of things worthy of investization isthat a | lot of special teachersare in the depart- | meut without the proper certificates en- | titling them to legally teach and draw zood salaries, and Mr. Webster 1s lookine | up the matter, along with the multiplied | evening schools, and so on. | “Four of these were put into the even- ing scheols by Dr. Ragan, chairman of | the evening schools committee,’”” said Mr. Webster yesterday. “My attention was | called to the matter by a member of the | Board of Examiners, and in looking into | the matter and into the law I found that several teachers of languages, typewriting and stenography were without special certificates plainly required by law. Iat once sent ont a circular to principals call- ing on them for the names of all special teachers in their schools who bave not the necessary credentials. “I propose now 1o review every certi- ficate in the department from top to bot- tom, and I will decline to sign tie salary | warrants of all teachers who are not en- titled by their certificatesto hold the pos: tions assigned them,” declared the super- intendent, thus providing a new fright for some people in the department. It is ex- vected that such an investigation will be | unpleasant for a namber of people. ! Superintendent Webster tells that chair- | man Burns ¢f the Buildings and Grounds Committee has been splitting up thee penses of school repairs and evading the legal requirement that bida shall be in- | vited for all expenditures exceedingz $200 | as a measure of economy, to save the cost | of advertising. At least that was what | Director Burns said when he started in to | give out the repairs of two rooms to one | man for §195 in one day, a few more rooms | in the sa building to the same man on anotber day, and so on. This newly discovered scheme has ex- ] cited more comment than most of the | ther things that are causing spicy about school aifairs, It- was a bold and clever way to dispose of thousands of dol- lars’ worth of patronage at the pleasure of those who gave out the jobs if patronage | itig had happened to be the motive. | “)Mr. Burns went to Auditor Broderick | to see if he could split the bills up that | way,”’ says Mr Webster, “and I believe | Mr. Broderick read the law to him. He | asked me about it, sayins that he wanted | to save the cost oi advertising, and 1 told him that he had bLetter follow the law strictly, as [ was doing tn my office.” This week the Superintendent and Dep- | uty Stone will get vigorously alter the | evening schools, in which teachers have multiplied and pupils decreased until thers are classes with three, four and ten pupils. ““The haste displayed in opening schools | and putting in new teachers is open Lo suspicion,” observes Mr. Webster, who is outspoken in charzing the majority with | playing the department for all the patron- | age there is in it. “These men have been eager for place ever since 1 was associated with them, whether to satisfy the un- | fortunate demands of friends or for political infiuence I cannot say. When nine men segrezate themselves into a dis- | tinct combination and vote solidly | gether on practically every proposiii: big and little, they mustexpect to receive | suspicion and criticism. *‘Atthe end of this fiscal year, June 30, the decrease in average daily attendance was but 23, yet this board has added 47 teachers to the department and increased the cost of instruction $38,748 a year, and the entire expenses of the department $70,509. These things indicate a political or a corrupt admlinistration of public school affairs. They disregard their rules, | both as individuals ana as a board, jump favorites to favored places over the heads of older and presumabiy better teachers, and the effect in the department is neces- sarily unwholesome.”’ STRIOKEN WITH REMORSE. Morris Rosenthal Has His Son Harry Arrested for Petty Larceny. Morris Rosenthal, a barber living at 1006 Mission street, took his son Harry, 18 years of age, to the City Prison Iriday night, and asked that a charge of petty larceny be registered against him, He said the boy wus in the habit of stealing money from him and losing it at gambling on the coursing events at Ingle- side and other resorts. After the charge was registered rnd the father saw his boy locked up in a cell a teeling of remorse came over him and he wanted the charge withdrawn, but it w. too late. He spent several hours in hunt- ing upa Judge, and early yesterday morn- ing he was successful in getting an order from Judge Conlan for the boy’s reiease on his own recognizance.

BORES I0E AND GRAVEL, A Machine Which May Revolutionize Mining in the Frozen North, E. §. Glover, one of the directors of the Kiondike Co-operative Mining and Trad- ing Company, has invented a machine which he claims will revolutionize mining in the gold fields of the frozen north. The machine works on the principle of an auger and is operated by hand. The bits are so arranged that they will go through ice and frozen gravel witk equal facility, and with the expenditure of but little abor. From tests that have been recently made by the inveulor, it is esti- mated that tbe ‘‘prospector,” as it is calied, will bore through ten feet of frozen gravel a day. The tesis were made a few days ago. Big blocks of ice ware perforated in a few minutes, and masses of gravel of the same size of the ice blocks, thut had been frozen solid, wers also bored with no greater expenditure of labor than it would take to bare through a four-inch plank with a wood auger. Mr. Glover wili leave jor Dawson City in asbort time and will make practical tests with his *‘prospector.”” He witl go by way of the Stickeen River and Lnfir) Tes:in, an'! from the latier place will reach the sc:ne of his operaiions by dog- sleds.

Rottanzi Is Piqued Because He Was Appointed Chairman of an Unim- portant Committee. The old Board of Supetvisors will make its dying struggle to-morrow morning in | the Supreme Court. The petition tiled by | Morton for a writ of mandamus compel- | ling Auditor Broderick to accept the tax levy fixed by the old board will be argued by the attorneys, and 1t is expected that the court will waste no time in deciding its merits. The followers of the old board and Sam Rainey believe that Morton’s petition will be granted. Rainey has informed some of his intimate friends that the old board will score a victory, and they express the pelief that *‘he knows something.” ‘Attorneys Baggett and Schell, who will represent the Auditor, haye delved into | the law relative to the questions at issne, and are positive in their assertions that the position of the new board will be sus- | tained. On the other hand, Attorne McEnerney and Pilisbury, who sent the ousted board, have also delved into the law, and are firm in the belief that tbe writ applied for will be granted. Mr. McEnerney, in speaking of the case, calls attention to decisions of several cases, which, according to his construc- | tion, go to show that the Supreme Court | has appellate jurisdiction of special cases. | Garret | repre- | {THE BALDWIN CLOTHIERS O24-980 Marlkzet St (BALIDWIN ANNIEIX) Mail Orders Will Receive Prompt and Careful Attention.

He ridicules the contention and asks what recourse the people would have when officials were removed from oflice for malfeasance and their appeal stayed the judgment. The tight has had one good effect. The people will have a low tax rate to pay, no matter which board is victorious_in the coming struggle. Had not judge Wallace removed the old hoard the tax levy would have been about $1 65 on the $100. Supervisor Rotianzi is kicking. He dislikes his appointment ag chair- man of the Health and Police Committee, and declares that he will refuse to accept it. He was chairman of the Finance Com- mittee of the old board. He said last night that he was pleased to be appointed on the mew board, as it was a vindication for him, but he did not consider that the old board was legally ousted. Heis piqued over his appointment as chairman of an unimportant committee. He proposes to attend the meetings of the old and new boards. e L e Young People’s Association. The semi-annual meeting of the Young Peo- ple’s Association of the Presbytery of Ean Francisco will be held in Westminster Presby- terian Church, Page and Webster streets, on Tuesday evening next.
