14 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL,, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1898, PREPARING T0 MAKE A TRUE CENNUS The School Depart- ment Will Make Extra Effort. The Elementary Commit- tee Has Issued New Orders. Compulsory Education Law Will Be Strictly En- forced. PARENTS TO BE NOTIFIED Be the New Much Money Will Saved to the City by Regime. The Elementary Committee of the Board of Education, has issued orders to the newly appointed Census Mar- hal, Thomas F. Maher, that extraor- dinary precautions must be taken to ing control and charge of any child or and fourteen years, shall be required to a public school for a period of at which a public school shall be taught least twelve weeks of which shall be which such parents, shown to their satisfaction that his or been such as to prevent attendance at or sick, or that such child or children this State, or have already acquired provided, in case a public school shall ions of this act. deemed guilty of & misdemeanor, and the parent, guardian, or other person President Board S R O R R e e T eSS see that all children of school age are enrolled during the canvass that is about to begin. These orders have been issued be- cause of the fact the committee be- leves that in years past the city has not received from the State the amount of money to which the School Depart- ment is entitled. It is belleved that | fully 10 per cent of the school children shown by the census have failed to at- tend any school and that by carrying out the provisions of the law the city will be saved several thousand dollars annually. The mode of procedure that will be adopted will hinge on the report of the Census Marshal. The attendance as recorded by the principals will be com- pared with the Marshal's report, and the names of those children who fail to attend will be called for several days in succession in order to give them an opportunity to.respond. In case they fail to answer the truant officer will be sent after them in-accordance with the provisions of the compulsory education law, and parents will be held account- able for the non-appearance of their children. This law in substance re- quires that all children between 5 and 17 years of age must attend school, and | 2 penalty is provided for the non-ob- | servance of the statute. The Board of Education has reason to believe from experience of past years that the city loses annually sev- eral thousand dollars because of the non-attendance of children and that it is required to pay some thousands of dollars to the general State s¢hool fund | in excess of what it receives. This is the matter the 'Elementary Committee desires to correct. Another matter to be closely looked to will be the careful allotting of schol- ars to their proper schools. Hereto- fore scholars have been placed accord- | ing to the blocks in the city map, re- | sulting In the overcrowding of some schools and a sparse attendance at others. The new method it is intended to employ will allot the children of school age according to population and the scholars will be arranged accord- ingly. )!"thls means it is hoped to save the services of a large number of teachers | and avold a portion of the threatening | deficit in the School Department funds. MISS WILLARD'S NAME 15 EVLOGIZED Memorial Services Held in Honor of America’s “Un- crowned Queen.” Beautiful Tributes of Love and Re- spect Paid to a Brilllant Chris- tan Woman. A filled the Simpson Memorial Methodist Church last night to do honor to the memory of Miss Frances E. Willard, the bright star and shining light of the Wo- man’s Christian Temperance Union, who has passed to the great majority that has gone before. The occasion was the memorial services held to do honor to the most brilliant woman that America has produced In this century. Many kind words were spoken, deep sympathy was expressed, and the eulogy that comes to the tongue from the promptings of per sonal bereavement were bespoken as trib. ute and homage upon the name of Fran- ces Willard. The exercises were presided over by Mrs. L. P. Williams, who read the Cru- sade Psalm of the W. C. T. U., “Praise Ye the Lord,” after which Mrs. Nellle B. Eyster delivered an address upon the early life of Miss Willard. She sald: *“As I thank God for the sunshine, so do I thank him that Frances Willard lived. I was a member of the National W. C. T. U. Convention that was held some years ago in Nashville, Tenn., when Miss Wil- | emotion he said, “‘and where shall I turn Every parent, guardian, or other person, in the State of California, hav- school district, in each school year, commencing on the first day of July in the year of our Lord one thousand eight children are excused from such attendance by the Board of Bducation the city, or city and county, or of the trustees of the school district in guardians, or other persons reside, the period required, or that the parents or guardians are extremely poor home, in such branches as are usually taught In the primary schools of ing the year within one mile by the nearest traveled road of the residence of any person within the school district, he shall not be liable to the provis- In case any parent, guardian, or other person shail fall to comply with the provisions of this act, sald parent, than twenty dollars; and for the second and each subsequent offense the fine shall not be less than twenty dollars nor more than fifty dollars; and Each such fine shall be paid to the secretary of the Board of Education. | printed to.day. large and interested congregation | lard was requested to write the story of her life. She did so, and ‘Glimpses of Fifty Years' one of the most beautiful books, kas the result.” Beginning with Miss Willard's birth in New York State near Rochester on Sep-|® tember 28, 1839, Mrs. yster beautifully | sketched her young life up to the time she became identified with the temper- | ance cause.

W. S. Matthew, D. D., followed | Mrs. Spencer and from his personal | knowledge of Miss Willard he told of her | lovely ghr!sllan character and noble work. In describing her he sald: “Her voice was not strong, but her face was magnificent. I shall never forget her bright, genial eye, her mobile yet firm | lips, or the poise of that broad 1nlellecl-" ual head upon the slender body. She was not only a scholar, but she was also rich | in the information of travel, and when} she spoke her words went straight to t’he} heart and conscience.” Rev. John Stephens paid to Miss Wil- lard the highest compliment of all. In spkaking of the high estimation in which she was held all over the world he said: “When the Americans joined with the British in doing honor to Queen Victoria, the English responded by calling Miss Willard ‘America’s Uncrowned Queen.’ Alas, I must say the Queen is dead!" | here the speaker paused, looked about | him, and then In a voice shaken with to cry, ‘Long live the Queen! “She won her immortality in this world, and now the crown of life, the reward of | those who are faithful unto death, fis hers.” During the exercises a beautiful offer- tory was sung by Alma Bergland.

Her husband, John Hunt, died about fourteen years’ ago, leaving her in the tender care of her devoted son, Judge Hunt, who, with one daughter, did every- thing possible to make her life pleasant and enjoyable.

It modestly sets out the sterling character of the com- pany, and explains pointedly the full meas- ure of its success in its constant purpose of safeguarding the interests of its members. This it has done in various ways, and par- ticularly by reducing the cost of insurance by minimizing the expenses of the company Last year the unequaled low rate of expense as heretofore was substantially maintained, and the company earned a dividend on the same Increasing scale as that pald during 1897 In connection with this statement re- garding the expense rate, it is gratifying to note from a condensed exhibit of the com- pany’s business for fifty-two years that the average expense ratio has been only 8.84 per | cent. This would seem to certalnly excel the record of any other company. During the company’s existence, also, there have been returned to policy holders, or now held for them, 128.20 per cent of what the company has received from them.

Proceeds of the Day Will Go to the Maine Sufferers. Vaudeville Stars Will Help to Make the Entertainment a Success. MANY NATIONALANTHEMS Music and All the Arts Will Show That the Country Is One in Sorrow. It is the opinion of all connected with the management of the Mining Fair that the benefit to-day for the sufferers of the Mane will be a great success. Arrangements have been made for a fine entertainment. Nearly a dozen well-known vaudeville stars will ap- pear during the afternoon and evening for the purpose of adding to the enter- tainment. Among those who will be present for the purpose of adding to the pleasure of the-audience are the following: The wonderful Lozelles, whose only rivals in thelr line are the famous fly- ing Jordans, and who have been all over the world; the Martels, the great bicyclists, will perform afternoon and evening; Cunningham and Blake, two | jig representatives of Ireland’s wealth, will give a novel vaudeville act; Schil- ling, the hero of many a long-distance race in times past, will give an act; Antonio, the juggling marvel, will ap- pear, and also Master Harry Mangels and Master Roy Rogers, the little juve- nile artists. Interest in the entertainment for the benefit of the relatives of the unfortu- nate dead is widespread. There is not a civic or military soclety that has not given some touching evidence of the fact that the cause of the unfortunate has struck a responsive chord in the | hearts of the multitude. The following resolution was unani- | mously adopted by the board of direc- tors of the Society of California Pio- neers at the regular monthly meeting | held yesterday: Resolved, That the Soclety of California Ploneers is hereby requested by their presence and aid to assist in the benefit to be given at the Golden Jubilee Minin, Falr on Monday next to the families o those killed In the recent disaster to the United States battle-ship Maine. Those in charge of the programme have spared no pains to make the en- tertainment _attractive in every pos- sible way. It is highly probable that the musical features will be of a very popular character. Many patriotic airs will be rendered by the great band that furnishes music each day and night. The audience will be invited to join In the chorus of national anthems, and that there is little doubt that there will be such an outburst of patriotism as has seldom been seen in the his- tory of this part of the State. Last night there was an interesting contest between members of various singing societies. The result of the balloting on the most popular society was as follows: Verein Eintracht, 537; Order of Hermann’s Sons, 109; San Francisco Turn Verein. 67; Germania Club, 15; Walhalla Encampment, 4.

But when the wind goes down the waves have a chance and with a boom and a roar they throw their spray high over the cliffs and cover the beach Garibaldi Guards at Garibaldi |’ with foam. Yesterday 1t was the wind's turn and | all the morning it blew one of those “tanglefoot” gales that made the few peo- ple who braved it crawl on their hands and knees. Poward noon it abated and by evening it was comparatively calm. Not so with the sea, however. In the morning it was the calmer element, but by night it was beginning to mutter. This morning, say the old-time haunters of the cliff, it will be a sight to see. Travel to the Ciiff House was fair yes- terday afternoon. but the Park was, com- paratively speaking, deserted. There was no music and_there were no wheelmen. consequently the hospital and police sta- tlon were places of rest and slumber. The | museum attracted nearly 7000 people last week, but the attendance yesterday was not large. At the Chutes the crowd was a fair one for a threatening day. Chiquita was the principal attraction. | At Sutro’s Baths there were races and | music as usual. In the 5)-yard race for boys under 12 years of age A. C. Durrant was first with S. Clough second.

CELEBRATION OF LENTEN EXERCISES Members of the Calvarian So- ciety Assemble in the Cathedral. Archbishop Riordan Delivers an Eloquent and Instructive Sermon. Over 3000 Catholics assembled in St. Mary’s Cathedral yesterday afternoon to participate in the Lenten exercises given under the auspices of the Calvarian So- ciety. As it had been announced that Arch- bishop Riordan would open the ceremony by preaching the initial sermon of a series to be delivered on Sunday afternoons dur- | ing the period of Lént, much interest was manifested by Catholics, who took advan- tage of the opportunity to hear the elo- quent speaker. Long before the appointed time for the ceremony to commence people from all arts of the city—Catholics and non- ‘atholics allke—began to arrive at the Cathedral in large numbers, crowding the edifice and blocking the vestibule. Promrny at 3 o'clock the service began. It consisted of “The Way of the Cross, being sald by Father Ramm and partici- gated in by the members of the entire alvarian Soclety, who chanted the an- swers to the prayers as the priest an- nounced them; a sermon by the Arch- bishop and the solemn benediction. “Watchers With Christ” (“‘Stay ye here with me * * * and he cometh with his disciples and findeth them asleep”) was the text which the Archbishop chose as the most appropriate to the occasion. The preacher briefly outlined the object of holding religiousexercises of this char- | acter during Lent, concluding with an ac- Ramm, to whom the present prosperous condition of the Calvarian Soclety is mainly due. At the conclusion of the address bene- diction was said by the Archbishop in person, assisted by Father Ramm as master of ceremonies. Services of a sim- ilar character as those observed yester- day will be held by the soclety next Sun- day afternoon. i —————— RIGHT SORT OF COURAGE. Rev. David James Talks to the Young Men’s Christian Asso- ciation. The address yesterday to the' members of the Young Men's Christian Associa- tion was entitled “True Coruage” and was dellvered by Rev. David James, pas- tor of the Franklin-street Presbyterian Church. Dr. James spoke of the muchly admired physical courage,- and, leading up from that to moral courage, showed, in elo- quent terms, how much superior the one was to the other and how much greater is the bravery that dares to do right and obey the commands of the Lord, despite the sneers of the world and the prompt- ings of self-interest, than the purely ani- mal bravery that is often nolhlng more than a form of vanity and the fear of what others will think of us. He wound up by exorting his hearers to persevere in the higher kind of courage and reap the final reward that will be much ter than any that can be bestowed by king or potentate. ——— e —— Stop ‘that co with Low’s Horehound couzg Syrup; lg!hu 10c. 417 Sansome st. | him, Lynch, becoming desperate, POKER AND DOG RACES HIS RUIN Arrest of an Abscond-| ing Collector in Sacramento. Dan Lynch Reaches the End of His Career as a “Sport.” Charged With Stealing Four- teen Hundred Dollars From His Employers. LONGAND EXCITING CHASE Admitted His Guilt to the Detectives When Taken Into Custody. Dan Lynch, who is wanted in this city for grand larceny, was arrested in Sacramento yesterday morning by De- tectives Tom Gibson and Ellis and Chief Dwyer of the capital city police force. He was brought back last night and locked up in the City Prison. Lynch was assistant bookkeeper and collector for Lewis, Anderson & Co., shipchandlers on East street, near Mar- ket. About four weeks ago, it is claimed, he broke into the safe of the company and stole §400. The crime was discovered a short time afterward and the police notified. Detectives Gibson and Ellis were de-~ tailed to arrest him, and by dint of in- quiry they learned that the absconding bookkeeper had gone to San Jose. The police of the Garden City were notified, but before they had a chance to arrest him Lynch left, going to Lathrop. From the latter place he went to Sacramento, where he was lo- cated by Gibson and Ellis. Lynch made a complete confession to the detectives. He attributed his downfall to poker and dog races. Some time ago, he said, he collected $300 be- longing to the firm, and as it was after baunking hours he comncluded to take the money home. On the way he visited a saloon where a game of poker was in | progress, and at the invitation of one of the players he called for a hand. In a short time he had lost all the money | he had, including the amount which he had collected. Fearing exposure and subsequent disgrace Lynch, according to his own statement, periodically robbed his employers. intended in case he made a winning of several hundred dollars to replace the amount he had stolen from the com- pany. As ill luck continued to follow re- turned to the store one night after it had been closed and proceeded to open the safe. Foliled in his attempt to un- lock the inner drawer in which was Stored the money of the firm, he broke it open v ith a hatchet. He took £300 in greenbacks, but overlooked a roll of crisp bills amounting to $2000. The fol- lowing day Lynch went to San Jose, where he slept in a barn for several nights, as he feared being arrested if he appeared on the streets. Evidently concluding that the police had aban- doned their search for him Lynch emerged from his hiding place and pro- ceeded to have a *“good time,” as he ex- pressed it. In a short time he had squandered his {1l gotten gains, and, being penniless, he boarded a freight train and went to Lathrop and thence to Sacramento. A short time after the commission of the crime Lewis, Anderson & Co. had an expert examine the books of their tormer colector, with the result that a shortage of $1000 was discovered. Lynch confessed to taking the money and claimed to have lost it at the dog races. It is likely that other charges will be placed against him to-day. EXPLORER PEARY TALKS OF FOOD Everything for the Klondike Should Be Carefully Chosen. The Lieutenant Says Liquid Food Is the Proper Diet for the North. Lieutenant Peary, the Arctic explorer, in his lecture at the Baldwin Theater last evening, urgently advised his hearers against patronizing the cheap outfitters in preparing for the journey to the Klon- dike. In the evening he hit the hand-me- down clothiers and their “‘cappers” hard, and advised that only the best material be purchased. The explorer gave some very valuable advice to the would-be Klondikers by tell- ing them the character of the robes they would require, as well as of the food it would be wisest for them to take. For clothes, he advises the following: Undershirt of birdskin, stockings of fox- skin, trousers of sealskin, shoes of flexible sealskin, overcoat of reindeer-skin and undercoat of bearskin. These, he said, were the most advisable, as from animals that lived in’ that ‘r’é"a“mf‘;'n“fi‘ | are destined by nature to protect the wearer from the severities of the climate. In regard to food, he advised lquid foods for the Arctic regions, as they are easier to carry and give the greatest amount of nutrition. hat he would take, did take and will take, are com- ressed tea, compressed peasoup, - gensed milk and sea biscuit. ggg ncucfi‘( he said, is the most nutritious thing a person can. take, as one can of it is to a %allun of milk and sustains a p:g:(:: for a long time. Lieutenant Peary discounted the idea that sleeping-bags were necessary, stat- ing that by the use of the clothing he had described such appliances could be safely eliminated from the outfit. He also said tents should be made in one plece, the floor covering being securely fastened to the upper portion, so that Arctic storms could not possibly carry away the cover- ing and leave the wayfarer exposed (to the intense severity of the elements.
