A column would not suffice to explain it, but its absurdity can be demonstrated in a paragraph. The | W well-known Councilman said: = “I o made a thorough comparison of the ates of this ordinance with the rates in | > 0ld ordinance, and from my thorough estigation I am convinced this ordi- nance is in favor of the poor man.” The new ordinance takes about 50 per cent | more out of the poor man’s pocket; adds | to his taxes if he pay any; adds a charge for his little flower garden and for his | horse, and if he aspire to have a bath in | his house he is again taxed; but more ri- | diculous and consequently ‘more unjust, | there is_a special charge for the water- closet. Mr. Woodward certainly does not expect any one to believe what he said except in one sense—that he is ‘“‘the poor ambitious po to yield to A man” to whom he referred. With this reservation, the ‘in favor” part is very | plain. The inevitable result of the present municipal scandal will be a strong reform movement prior to the next city election. Five years ago it was found to be neces- | sary to break away from party lines in | municipal government and the Municipal | League was formed. Headed by Dr. Par- Qee, it swept all before it and for four | years Oakland had a pretty good govern- | ment. At the end of that time a major- ity of the members had forsaken their | first love and public _confidence in them Was abated and the time was ripe for the | early stages of the scheme that has just | culminated in delivering the city over to | the water companies.

Councilman “Billy” Heitmann is a gen- | jus, and if he ever finds it necessary to earn a living by the sweat of his brow, it will not be because of & scarcity of Wits. When he first came before the pub- Hc as a councilman he at once started out to make a record. It was not, perhap: the best kind of a record, but he was hon est in letting evervbody know where he gtood, in which particular he differed ma- terlally from a few of the ‘“reformers.

Monday night opens with the production of Dion Boucicault's pretuest Irish play, “The Colleen Bawn.” Miss Mabel Hussey, one of Oakland’s most successful dramatic readers, has been specially engaged for the leading role in J. A. Frasier's bright little comedy drama, “Falsely Accused,” which will be presented at the (Zhagman Opera House in Oakland on the 18th of this month by the Guilbault-Birdsall company. The Rockefeller Rhetorical Soclety of California College will give its regular mid-term open meeting in Mary Stuart Hall, Highland bark, Fast Oakland, on Friday evening.

BERKELEY, March 13.—Pavolo Salis- bury and George Moenning left for Los Angeles this morning to represent Paul Revere Council of Berkeley in the State | | Convention of Junior American Mechan- | ics. Professor Lovejoy of the Pacific Theo- logical Seminary preached this evening at the First Congregational Church of Berkeley The question of holding a local election to amend the Berkeley charter so as to provide Justices’ Courts is being agitated in the college town. Berkeley's Justices Courts were recently declared invalid, and all petty offenders have been taken to Oakland for trial. The old recitation schedule will be re- estabiished at the university to-morrow morning. Recitations will begin at 8:30, 9:25, 10:20, 11 5 and 3:45 o’clock. RACING AT SUTRO BATHS. The Animals at the Chutes Draw a Large Crowd—Park Music. It was not as windy at the park and cliff as it was thought that it would be, and despite the fact that in the main part of the city the wind was blowing a gale there was only one place at the cliff that the wind was objectionable, and that was at a point just Dbetween the CHff House and the baths. Many people were nearly blown off their feet and hats did not think of staying on the heads of the owners. At Butro Baths there were a number of exciting races and aquatic performances. Superintendent Harrison has endeavored to do away with the vaudeville portion of the show and devote it entirely to aquatic performances. Those who were winners in the various contests yesterday were: 50-yard race for boys under 12, F. Clough first and C. Clough second; 75-yard race for boys under 16, R. Dahl first and J. Hanton second; obstacle race, tie be- tween V. Schultze and F. Burnett; high diving for boys under 1§, H. Hirsch- felder first and H. Donovan second. The 220-yard match between Oscar Rice and Dan Green turned out to be a draw. It will be decided next Sunday. The Zoo was quite an attraction at the Chutes yesterday. The little cubs of the large African lioness that were born Tuesday will be exhibited for the first time to-day. —————— Died From Her Injuries. Mrs. Margaret Nelson, who was se- verely burned in her room at the Califor- pia Hotel on Montgomery avenue last Thursday evening, died in the County Hospital yesterday.

The circular of instructions issued by the division commander to the brigade in- | | spectors and published exclusively in The Call of yesterday, is one of the best moves that have ever been made in the matter of securing information that will | enable the heads of the guard to know its condition, and be able to suggest reme- dies for delinquencies. It will appear | that in San Francisco, at least, there has not been since the previous inspection any regimental drill; marching with 1ull | kit; practice in advance and rear guard | duty; outpost, reconnoissance and pa- | | trols: that all men are ordered to, but not required to attend target practice with | small arms; that battalion drill has been neglected; that entire harmony does not exist among the officers of the organiza- tion; that in many instances the capacity | | of officers is not up to the standard of re- | quirement laid_down in conducting the | military and staff services of the com- | mand; that there are officers unfit for s vice through infirmity or other cau: | that there is a lack of thorough knowl- edge as to communication by road, rail or telegraph; that but little attention has been paid to the requirements of target practice by those whose duty it is to at- fend to that matter; that but few, if any companies, have been thoroughly exer- cised in sighting drills, position and aim- ing drills and gallery practice; that there | is one sheltered place for gallery practice | that the same is not open to the regiment, but confined to the use of companies in the Ellis-street armory; that the regiment | has not a rifle range, but is out peddling | tickets for an entertainment to be given | to raise funds to provide such a range; that the regimental blankets cannot be “taken out occasionally, shaken and hung | out of doors,” for the Teason that there | is no place out of doors under the control | of the regiment where they can be hung | o e that there are mot many officers and | enlisted men outside of the signal corps | who are proficient in the exchange of signals by flags, heliograph or telegraph; | that the non-commissioned officers have | not had any lyceums of instruction, which they ought to have; that there has been but little, if any, instruction in the matter of judging distances of stationary or moving objects, or in crossing streams or ditches, or in embarking on boats or cars. These are only a few of the delinquen- cles which must appear if the reports are correct and unequivocal, The good of the National Guard demands that every one of the one hundred and eleven questions in the circular should be answered with- out equivocation, for there is no denying that there are many delinquencies, ‘and as there is an officer at the head of the guard at this time who evinces a desire fo place the guard right he should be en- couraged. If he receives the assistance that he ought to have in effecting many reforms he has in contemplation the uard of this State will be so far above ts present status that it will command the respect of communities in which the various organizations are located and there will be much less talk than there is at this time about “tin soldiers.” A SCHEME NOT RELISHED. There is considerable growling in the ranks because the men of the First In- fantry have been notified that they will have to give their services in ald of an advertising scheme. One of the officers of the regiment, in speaking of this mat- ter, said: “We have been ordered to take part In some entertainment that i to be foum up, ostensibly for the pu pose of raising a fund to erect a monu- ment or something of that kind to the memory of those unfortunate fellows who met their death on the Maine. I, for one, am willing to give my time and money in ald of any movement that will result in good, but I am oppesed to being required | lieutenant | ing when Oti: to give my time or to take the time and service of the National Guard, which is Sustained by the taxpayers, for the pur- pose of advertising & newspaper that is Seeking to thrust itself forward through the misfortunes of others. If it had been a movement by the National Guard it certainly would have the heartiest sup- port of the officers and men, but under the circumstances it has not. Still, we are under orders and we must obey.” ADVERSE CRITICISM. At the reception tendered the division commander at brigade headquarters last Saturday night Colonel Fairbanks of the Fifth Regiment took occasion to read those present a brief lecture on the evil of a lack of harmony in the ranks of the National Guard( and declared that it was that which in a great measure brought it in for & share of adverse criti- cism in the newspapers. A lack of unan- imity, it is true, has had much to do with the condition of the guard at this time, for when the file finds that the rank does not devote the interest to it that it should then it becomes affected and cares but little in maintaining the spirit that is requisite in keeping up the organization. A little more in the line of acting in har- mony, to the end of advancing the prac- tical side of the guard, and there will be less adverse criticism. If the officers furnish material for such criticism they must expect it. THE NAVAL MILITIA. Lieutenant-Commander T. A. Nerny, acting captain, ?reslded at an election jast Tuesday. H. P. Gray was elected and assistant engineer, Harry Willlams was elected lieutenant, junior | grade, and passed assistant engineer, and R. B. Church was elected ensign and passed a tant engineer. Lieutenant Williams, junior grade, will be assigned to the Pinta. Lieutenant-Commander Nerny will go to Santa Cruz to-night to preside at an election for lieutenant, vice Morey, resigned. Tt is probable that Carl Tinasey, lieutenant, junior grade, will be advanced to the position of lieutenant. The lieute commander will go to Santa Cruz this week to preside at an “leotion to be held to fill the vacancy Used by the resignation of Lieutenant forey. It is probable that Carl E. Lind- v lieutenant, junior grade, will be chosen for the place, and in that manner be_promoted. The repairs o n the Pinta will be com- pleted within the next two or three days |- And she will start a second time for her Gestination, San Diego, on Thursday next. — BOTH WOUNDED 1D BLEEDING Special Officers Tannian and Burge Have a Misun- derstanding. One Uses a Club and the Other the Butt End of His Revolver, With Serious Results. Two speclal officers had a misunder- standing early vesterday morning with the result that both had to be taken to the Receoiving Hospital and one of them was charged at the City Prison With an sault with a deadly weapon. Martin Tannian is an ex-policeman and is now employed as a special officer at the Empire Theater on Ellis street. He was in a saloon on O'Farrell and Powell streets about H. Burge, a special officer on Broadway and Dupont street, drove up in a hack and entered the saloon. Burge had engaged the hack for some friends who had been at the masquerade ball. As soon as Burge entered the sa loon Tannian went at him. He wanted to know what Burge was doing in that neighborhood. Burge told him to mind his own business and Tannian lost his temper and struck Burge twice in the face. Burge pulled out his club and gave Tannian a tap on the head which cut open his scalp. Seeing trouble. was imminent people in the saloon separated the two and Burge went out and took a seat in the hack. Tannian followed him and pulling out his revolver used the butt end as a club and whacked Burge over the head with it six times before he could be stopped. Policemen Harter and Hayden appeared on the scene and arrested the two men. At the Receiving Hospital Burge had six scalp wounds stitched and dressed, and Tannian had one. Both were under the influence of liquor. Tannian was taken to the City Prison and booked on & charge of ault with a deadly weapon, and Burge w booked for being drunk. Tannian was later released on %fls own recognizance by Judge Conlan and Bur%a E: at lib- soon as he was sober was set DUGGAN IS STOIC. “GENERAL” ‘ The Exhortat?o?ns" of the Salvaticn Army Has No Charms for Him in the County Jail. The exhortations of the Salvation Army to the criminals confined in the County Jail has no charms for “General’” Dug- gan. While the lassies were holding their services in the prison the leader of the army of Jesus Christ crouched in his cell like a caged animal. He pald no heed to them and took no Irterest in their exercises. The other prisoners teased him a little and urged him to as- sume his past vocation in turning way- ward sinners to repentance. But this admonition was all lost. He paid no tention to the taunts of his fellow-pris oners. To the officers of the jall he is non-communicative and declines to make acquaintances when addressed through the peephole in the door of his cell. Since his transfer from the City Prison to the County Jail he has had no callers, nor has he sent out any messages to the other members of his corps. He seems to have been deserted by the soldiers of his “arm; ————— “HER LAST VOYAGE.” A Photo-Lithogravure of the Maine From an Oil Painting by W. A. Coulter. One of the handsomest photo-lithogra~- vures ever got out in San Francisco is that of the wrecked battle-ship Maine. It is in six colors and was taken from an oil painting by W. A. Coulter, The Call's marine artist. The point of view is from the southwest and shows the Maine slow- ing down and rounding in from deep water to the entrance to Havana harbor. Morro Castle is ghown on the port bow and the whole picture is full of life and action. The battle-ship seems to be a thing of life, and no one to look at the picture would think that a few days later she- would be a wreck at the bottom of | Havana harbor, & monument to Spanish | treachery. Mr. Coulter is a past master in the art of drawing sea scenes, but in this pictere of the Maine he has sur- passed himself. —_———— Two Fraternity Dinners. ThePhi Delta Theta held its regular an- nual dinner at the Palace Hotel Saturday evening. A delightful menu was proviaed and numerous members of the fraternity who <new how to aptly say a good thing on a good subject got up and said it while the rest listened and applauded with ap- preciation. It was late when the gather- ing finally broke up to come to- gether again in good fellowship when another year sha.. have added its days to those already passed since the guests were college chums together. While the P. H. D.'s were dining in one part of the building, the Sigma Alpha Epsilon was holding, around a groaning board, its forty-second reunion in anouaer. Nearly forty guests, representing Alpha Chapter of Stanford and Beta Chapter of Berkeley were gathered together, and with good cheer, good speeches and good songs they passed a right merry evening, and it was with regret that they noted the signs of approaching day which a kindly heaven sent to light them on their homeward path.
