As a natural but unfortunate | sult of this power, the Board of Edu- | . composed almost invariably of new men each term, who are often ig- norant of the duties of the office and as often so small as to be inflated with pride in the power, have an influence over the school department and over the teachers individually, wholly un- | arranted in reason, and which may Geo intend Meister to Super- One More Warrant Has 1e Municipal Been Traced toBraly’s Bank.

In sentencing him Judge Smith said: “You have been convicted of a sud- den and almost unprovoked murder. When you sent a young man into eternity it was nothing but a sort of crazy, insane idea. You called this young boy, William Roche, to the back porch and shot him down with this big 45-caliber revolver. I am con- vinced that but one thing Is responsi- ble for this awful deed, and that is whisky. The jury has been merciful to you in declaring this to be murder in the second degree, and the court is disposed to be merciful also.” The Judge thereupon gave him a quarter of a century of imprisonment as punishment. Savage's mother and sisters were in the courtroom, and the scene that followed the pronounce- ment of the sentence made by Judge Smith was most dramatic. The moth- r grasped her son and placing her arms around his neck wept most bit- terly, at the same time crying, “Oh, my boy, my darling boy, has it come to this?” Other relatives who had gathered in the courtroom began to sob, and there was not a dry eye among the half a hundred present. Finally the time came for the last parting, and the mother, bracing her- self and drying her eyes, said: “Go, my boy, my dear boy; go, but remem- ber me and be good.” For San Diego’s Naval Militia.
