THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, 1898. ARCH 10, 7 VOGELSANG PAYS COMPLIMENTS He Expresses His Mind About School Director Hammond. Not Half a Director Nor Half a Gentleman He Writes in a Letter. A Weel’s Vacation in Early April and the June Term Extended a Week. The School Board met yesterday af- ternoon; it was not a lively meeting | and there was not much business of im- | | portance transacted. | A little zest was added to the meet- | ing by a communication sent in by | Alex Vogelsang, attorney for the board, who took occasion to speak his mind regarding Director Hammond. He | wrote to explain his connection “““i the law business of the board in re- ply to some criticism which had been passed on the charges he made for ex- tra work. He said the legal business of the board is enough to take up the entire time of a reputable attorney, and as his duties were definite in character he believed he should receive extra compensation for any work out--| side of them. In closing his wrote: It is hoped that the communication is both plain and satisfactory to eleven members of your board; as to the twelfth, who by some absurd travesty is chair- man of the Judiciary Committee, I have no hopes. He seems incapable of com- prehension, though 1 have often tried to | explain to him the law of the case. | One of the papers also states that at the last meeting of the board this Di-| rector took occasion to make some ur complimentary remarks concerning | gelf. In reply thereto I feel it sufficient | to say that the disapproval of this per-| son, who is not half a Director nor vet half a gentleman, is more to be desired by those who know him than Is his es-| teem. | | communication he | | | | Director Hammond is chairman of | the judiciary committee. | Grammar grade certificates were | granted to Miss Eva B. ary, Miss | Isabelle Hemmenway, M Mabel Hol- | lis, Miss May C. N and Arthur | Kilgore. The g r grade certi- ficates of Miss Lily A. Toomy and M rie A. Irwin were renewed. | The Committee on mentary Edu- | cation recommended t the s | be directed to advertise for s for sealed proposals for supplying the | pupils in the public schools of San| Francisco with suital text books in all branches in the primary grades, the | bids to be opened June 9. The recommendation was adopted after some discussion. It was ex- plained that the advertising for bids for books did not necessarily mean a ange in the text books used, but was 1y to make the adoption of any books eded legal. By further recommendation of the/ je committee Miss M. C. Sutherland | of the unassigned list was assigned to | a class in the Redding Primarv School, and Miss Jane Passalaqua was trans- ferrsd as a probationary teacher from the day school substitute list to a class in the Chinese Primary School. On recommendation of the Commit- tee on ening Schools Miss Mary ‘Watson of the Evening School substi- tute class was assigned to a class in| the Lincoln Evening School; Miss Mary | Mooney of the Evening School substi- | tute class was assigned to a class in he Business Evening School. The Committee on Rules recommend- ed as follows: That section 90 of the rules be changed to read as follows: “‘Corporal punishment shall consist of the appli- cation of the strap or the rattan.” That in article 1, section 59, “high hools™ be stricken out. To add a new article to section 59 to read: ‘“The Girls’ High School be instructed by a principal and two vice principals and assistants as may be needed.” That the communica- n of P. J. Carr, asking leave to so- licit for a history of the world in the schools, be denied. That permission to Miss C. M. Johnston, principal of the Fairmount School to collect contribu- tions from the children to hire a plano be denied. That teachers must read gection 185, subdivision 1, of the rules to the scholars every month. The recommendations were adopted with the exception of that regarding the high schools. The following leaves of absence were grant Miss C. A. Templeton of the West End School, from March 1 to March 24; Miss K. R. Paxton of the department at large, from February 28 to March 21; Miss Er ne Arnold of the Hamilton Gram- mar, from March 10 to April 10; Mrs. M. D. Patrick of the Rincon Evening School, from March 1 to April 1; Miss E. G. Mc- Ewen of the Broadway Grammar, from March 7 to May 7; Miss Fannie Davis of the Redding Primary, from February 1, 1898, to February 1, 1899; Miss M. A. Bur- nett of the Sutro Primary, from March &1 to April 30. Mrs. Patrick and Miss Burnett asked for leave until June 1, but Director Head called attention to the fact that by taking such a leave they would come back and after teaching for a few days be qualified to draw their salary for the long vacation just as if they had not been out. In view of this situ- ation the board allowed them each one month, and if they desire further leave they will probably be required to take a leave that will include the vacation. Miss E. R. Daniel, having served six months as a teacher in the evening schools, prior to her transfer to the day schools, was made a regular teacher with full pay. It was declded that the probationary period, as required by the rules, shall apply to evening schools as well as day schools, and evening school principals must hereafter report as probationary teachers. The salaries of the principals of the schools were rafsed from $110 to $116 a month. On motion of Mr. Waller a week’s va- cation was ordered from April 4 to April 8, and the subsequent term was extended from June 17 to June 24. Miss P. M. Nolan was re-elected to the City Board of Examiners for two years from March 1, her former term having expired. Miss E. Hettinger was transferred from the day substitute class to a class in the Agassiz Primary School. Miss Nellie Gallagher, principal of the Agassiz Primary School, was made first vice-principal of the Franklin Grammar School, vice Miss Kate Mc- Donald, deceased. Resolutions of re- spect to the memory of Miss MeDon- ald, and of sympathy for her relatives, were adopted. It was decided that Mr. McAuliffe be assigned as a substitute in the place of Mr. 8immons of the high school during pd | known by old women and small boys HOW THE NEW ARRIVALS 4. | contract with the Chutes management, for the arrival of three baby lions Sun- day night lends an additional attrac- tion.

The stuff was hurriedly locked up In the big safe in the office, while Lieutenant Esola immediately communicated the facts to Chief of Po- lice Lees and Captain of Police Bohen. The three officials held a conference, lasting fully an hour, .and it was decided to place a strict watch on the cave day and night n the hope that some member of the gang might return.

Gillis Loses 150 Opals Brought From Australia. Hamilton Lincoln Gillis, a native of Pittsburg, Pa., obtained a search warrant in Judge Campbell's court westerday for the recovery of 150 opals which he claims had been stolen from him by Aleck Cra- mer. Gillls went to Australia some time ago to go mining for opals. After securing 150 he returned by the Mariposa, working his way. Cramer was on the same steam- er, also working his passage. When they arrived here Gillis continued working on the vessel and as he had no secure place in which to place the opals he gave them into_the custody of Carmer, who roomed in the same house, at 54 Jackson street. He valued the opals at $2 50 each in their rough state. Cramer disappeared from the lodging- house a few days ago and on making In- quiry, Gillis was Informed that he had one to Seattle on his way to the Klon- ike. He did not know whether or not he had taken the opals with him, so he pro- cured a search warrant to satisfy him- self on that point. He was satisfied. Dr. Pepper Would Not Come. Regarding the statement that there has been talk of Dr. Pepper’s succeed- ing Martin Kellogg as president of the State University, and the suggestion that Mrs. Hearst would be pleased if the position were tendered to him, Mrs. Hearst states that there is absolutely no justification nor basis for such an impression. _ Mrs. Hearst has never thought of Dr. Pepper in connection with the presidency of the State Uni- versity, has never suggested his name for the position to any one and is well aware that the university has nothing to offer Dr. Pepper which would be open to his consideration. Dr. Pepper has a handsome practice, ylelding him an income of $80,000 a year, and his du- ties as president of the Museum of Philadelphia and library, with whose endowment he is largely concerned, make his departure from his own State impossible. Sound Money Discussions. Between now and next presidential election there will be hosts of discussions of the ques- tlons of *sound money”’ and silver. However opintons may be divided on these points, there is but ong public and professional opinfon, and that is a favorable one, regarding the merits of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters as a remedy for and preventive of malaria, as well as a cura- tive of kidney complaint, dyspepsia, constipa- tion, liver trouble and rheumatism. | room with' him, while the black bear the | a| SALOONS FOR THE CHILDREN Judge Low Lets an Of- fender Off With a Trifling Fine. | State Law Ignored for a Man Who Richly Deserved Punishment. Questions Naturally Arise as to the Whys and Wherefores of the Transaction. Thcre was a case in the court of Po- llce Judge Lotv recently which failed to excite the interest it deserved. That it also failed to result in the infliction of an adequate penalty is a matter of opinion. It was thatof Peter Bokoriska, charged with allowing a minor in his | saloon, and guilty of the charge. He | | was fined $5. ! The crime is one clearly recognized | | by the statutes. The State law bearing | | upon it was enacted in 1891. It provides | that for every offense there shall be a | fine fmposed of not less than $100, nor | more than $300, and that in default of | | payment the convicted defendant shall | be imprisoned for not less than 100 | days. There is a visible difference be- i | tween these provisions and the punish- ment preseribed by Judge Low. This may be explained in part by the fact that the complaint against Bokoriska f was not made under the State law, but under a municipal ordinance much milder in its terms, and yet not so sweetly lenient as the construction put | | updn it by Judge Low would seem to | imply. This is order 2624. It forbids minors under 18 to be in saloons, and | says that any saloon keeper violating | it shall be punished by a fine not more | than $1000 or imprisonment for not | more than six months, or both. Cer- | tainly Judge Low was well within the | |law. There is no denial that $5 is less | than $1000. But questions arise. | When the State law was enacted it | seemed to strike Chief Crowley as a | good thing, for he had it printed for | distribution among his men, and at the | bottom of the leaf was this line, sug- | gestive even to the densest policeman | | on the force: “Officers are expected to | | enforce this law.” There are no rec- | | ords showing that these instructions | were ever rescinded. An offender com- | ing within purview of the municipal or- | der would certainly be unable to evade | the State law. Why, then, was Boko- riska arraigned under & rule giving him a chance to escape? Why was a fine much less as tp be farcical? This BokoriSka is said to be an old | offender. His saloon out on Mission | street has a reputation for harboring | | children of both sexes. Such is_the | reputation the police give it. Yet there | is a State law designed to reach just such places. The law is ignored and an | | ineffective local order employed appar- | ently for the purpose of letting people | of the Bokoriska stripe escape. In the Divorce Courts. Kate M. Turpin was granted a divorce from W. H. Turpin yesterday on the | ground of cruelty, Mrs. Turpin was grant- €d the custody of her minor children and was allowed alimony in the sum of $0 a | month. Nettie A. Mixer was granted a | divorce from her husband, George H. Mixer, on the ground of extreme cruelty. | —_———————— | Advances made on furniture and planos, with | or without removal. J.
