Chief Inspector Munro, of the postoffice department, swore to a complaint yester- day charging Edwin A. Lowe with em- begzlement. Lowe was stant post- master at Newton Center, Middlesex County, Massachusetts. He absconded on November 28, 1897, with $1800 of Govern- ment funds and went on a pleasure tour to Mexico. By the time he arrived in Santa Clara County all his money had disappeared and he was left stranded. Being tired of globe-trotting on a hun- gry stomach, Lowe confessed his guilt to a Constable at Mountain View, and told him that he wanted to be sent home. Lowe will be brought to this city and examined before United States Commis- sioner Heacock, preparatory to holding him to await the arrival of the papers from Mas husetts To Cure Headache In 15 Minutes.

The Acme Club of Oakland Performing Before the Visiting Miners. \i‘\\——/a& Q1 MR.(OTTON SHOWS HIS SKILL ON THE BARS Alameda and Oakland day at the Min- ing Fair yesterday proved to be a great success in every way. The exhibition by the Acme Club of Vakland at night was one of the best amateur athletic exhibi- tions ever witnessed here. The work of Cotton and Kilbourne upon the bars was excellent. Charles Slamberg did some good Indlan club swinging, while the tum- bling of Reed and Kinney provoked much applause. The wrestling between Cotton and Turner and the three-round boxing match between Smith and Slamberg wera also good. J. W. Jafford won the Cornish wrestling match, throwin; fourth bout.

Waller is as unfit for the position he holds as a member of the Board of Education as a man could well be. According to these as- sertions, Waller has known for months of the degradation of certain teachers in the public schools of this city, and not only has he boasted of such knowl- edge, but he not made the slightest effort to have them removed, because, he sald, they had a “pull.” These teachers—two women—Waller is alleged to have declared he had seen | drunk in the streets of San Fraacisco, | yet he permits them to retain their positions as instructors of innocent children without so much as a word of | rebuke. Furthermore, the conduct and con- dition of Waller himself at the time he made the assertion were such as to cause his permanent banishment from the educational council chamber. But | this can best be told in the language of: Mr. Waterhouse, editor of the Ex-| aminer Sunday supplement. | r. Waterhouse furnishes weekly let- | ters to several interior papers, in which | omments on current happenings in | t‘s(: (‘?:.y with a dash and freedom that | have earned for him a reputation as a writer of ability. The following is part | of a letter pubiished in the Fresno Re- | publican of Octcber 31, 1897, over Mr. | Waterhouse's ture, and with the | headlines that appeared in that paper. | Before devoting his attention to the| School Director the writer made some | timely comments on the Supervisors | and other topics, and before his signa- | ture gave brief space to some other | matters, but his allegations against the | Director are given in full ‘as follows: | A J.

They say Green has been eating too heartily of all kinds of food, and that his method of training has been altogether too lax for a man who has a heavy contract on hand. But Green’s friends say Ryan will be the recipient of a good' drubbing, as George has trained with a view of de- veloping lung power and strength, and that he will enter the ring as a middle- weight and in a condition to prove that GEORGE when at his best the local man is a dangerous competitor. However, Green’s style of fighting will be closely watched this evening, and if h® shows the least tendency to hold back his fire it is safe to say that in future Green will have to look else- where for an engagement, as the sport- ing fraternity of this city has had about enough-of good-thing fights.

The pugilists agreed to fight at catch weights, and that is why they have trained purposely to develop mus- cle and weight. It should be a contest well worth going a long distance to see. It is hoped that the preliminaries will be of short duration, as the people who witness boxing contests are always anxious to get home at a respectable 1If the assertions of A. J.

Recently a member of the Grand Jury received anonymously a copy of the above clipped from the paper in which it was published. He took it to Mr. Waterhouse, who unhesitatingly pronounced it true in every detail, and upon being asked to give the name of the Director referred to replied that it was S. L. Waller. He further said he was prepared to substantiate his charge at any time. As drunkenness and obscenity are not indictable offenses the Grand Jary cannot take any official action on the charges, but when Waller is brought to trial on the charges for which he has already been indicted the matter will be brought to the attention of thc proper authorities. It will, moreover, form a part of the general inquiry by the Grand Jury into the condition of the School Department. gt teslt T JUDGE LOW MAY - BE ALSO INDICTED ! Justinius Olsen Says His Honor Induced Him to Com- mit Perjury. The Grand Jury Considers the Charge Against John Coldin. Justinius B. Olsen, the official reporter | in Judge Léw’s court, who was indicted | by the Grand Jury last Monday on a charge of perjury, was granted another hearing last night, and in his defense he implicated Judge Low himself, swearing that he had been authorized by him to swear that his accounts were correct when he knew they were not. As Olsen’s indictment is based upon the fact of his making a false report as to the condition of his accounts, his accusa- tion against Low created no end of excite- ment and judicial hubbub whemw it was made last night before the inquisitors. The Grand Jury upon hearing his testi- mony decided to suspend judgment in the cause until further investigation is made of the charges against Low. If what the ex-reporter says is true, his Honor's judicial head is liable to fall into the basket along with that of his former stenographer. Tdwin Lewis, a straw bondsman, who recently figured in the Coldin robbery case, was recently indicted for perjury, and it has just transpired that he, instead of Coldin, was the real perpetrator of the theft of $1000 worth of diamonds. Judge Jury last night and gave evidence to the | act. 1 John Coldin was arrested last Septem- ber on a charge of theft, having stolen, it was presumed at the time, the dlamonds | which have since been proved to have never been In his possession, but had been len by Lewis and disposed of by him to Giacobi, a jeweler at 319 Kearny_ street, The entire $1000 worth of diamonds were sold for $60. It has been proved, however, that Col- | din, before his implication In the present | case, had served a term in the State | Prison for robbery, which will have a ten- dency to dissipate the impression which bhas ‘gone forth that he is entirely inno- cent of implication in the Lewls case. ——————— ‘Wanted the Insurance. John Vasal set fire to his home in Los Angeles and was convicted in the lower court of that county. He appealed to the Supreme Court, but the higher tribunal lost no time in disposing of the appeal. | In the decision handed down yesterday | the judgment of the lower court was sus- ained, as the testimony showed that vasal deliberately destroyed his for the insurance money, and the appeal was simply on_technicalities.
