Numerous Changes and Transfers of Teachers in the Various De- partments—Examinations September 23. The Board of Education held a lively session yesterday afternoon. Consider- | able business was transacted, but amid |a dire confusion that left many of the | members in doubt, at times, as to what was transpiring. The board wrangled over the question of purchasing forty typewriting machines for the use of scholars in the evening business schools, and it soon appeared that every machine on the market had at Jeast one advocate among the members. The committee on supplies had recom- mended three of the leading machines, but the board would not hear to restric- tlon. Failing to agree as to which ma- chines should be purchased, the board | concluded to let the schools walt, and | gained time by referring the matter back | fo the committee. The average price | quoted by the agents of the various $100 | machines was $70 apiece. The question of appropriating $3500 for | the school library for the present. year was discussed, but was tabled, pending word from the Supervisors &S to what money could be had for the purpose. The case of Mrs. Irene Reeves, t:ache; e Girls’ High School, - also figure h;'ox:nrl‘nen(t;ly, Principal Brooks had, in Els June report, reported adversely to Mrs. Reeves, claiming that she was de- ficient 'in _scholarship and diselpline. Since that time no action had been taken, although there had been much talk over T, th’?hgfitfixmmee on qualifications finally decided that. something must be done to | settle the matter one way or the other and at yesterday’s session had Mrs. Reeves’ name Inciuded in the list of teachers to be transfered. It was recom- mended that she be given a place In the Polytechntc High School. The proposed | transfer at once aroused-acrimonious dis- cussion, two or three members trying to falk at once, while the president of the board pounded his gavel vigorously ‘for order. It .was quite evident that the teacher had -both friends and opponents in the board, but the preponderance of sentiment could not be ‘determined, as | fhe chair cut short the discussion In its | incipient stage by declaring -the talk out | of order. | %%No charges have ‘beén preferred | against Mrs. Reeves before this board,” | 'was his - decision.

B S O S T T o “SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 20.—To the Editor of The Call: Through the co-operation of the Board of Supervisors and Police Department of this city, and for which we shall be ever grateful, the disreputable houses on Quincy street and St. Mary's place have been closed and the nulsance there conducted has been abated. “This abomination had existed on these streets for so many vears that property owners there almost concluded that, in it, they had vested their rights, and they are ever on the alert for its renewal, so it has been thought wise to remove the bone of contention by razing the objection- able shanties. that disgrace that neighborhood, to wit: from Dupont street to St. Mary's place and California street, to Pine street, comprising about 200 feet square, and thereafter instead thereof to Jay out and conduect at that place a beautiful public garden or square. “‘Such an experiment had been successful in other cities, and we earn- estly submit it is, in this instance, worth the effort; hence we invite your presence at a meeting of citizens to be held in the basement of 8t. Mary's Church, northeast corner of California and Dupont streets, on Saturday, September 10, at 8 p. m., that we may advise in the premises. Respectfully, GEORGE D. SHADBURNE, In behalf of the Paulist Fathers. bttt ittt bttt ettt ettt ettt P S T2 P TPV P . spring them at once? Let us know all about It.” ‘“There is a boycott on in the High School agalnst Mrs. Reeves,” remarked | another. Again the gavel came vigorously down and the tumult was finally quelled. Un- der the rules of the board any teacher glven a second chance, as after the fir: complaint by a principal she is allowed to go to another school and take up work. If the principal of this school aiso makes complaint, then the board Is obliged to summon the teacher to appear before it to answer to charges. It was decided that the next semi-an- n Ql examination of applicants for teach- ers' ositions should begin on Fri- day, September 23, at the San Francisco Normal School. Miss Kate E. Whitaker resigned as head teacher of cooking in the schools stating that she had been suddenly calle to England and did not wish to ask for | a furlough, as she had recently been away. Miss Mary Tillman was tempora- rily ‘chosen to fill her place. The Woman's State Federation for the | Public Good presented a remonstrance, | through its recording secretary, Lila May Kimball, inst the growing practice in the public schools of calling on the schol- ars for contributions to various objects, for the rental of pianos, for soldiers’ ! lunches, ete. THe practice, It was stated, | was wrong, inasmuch as many children were too poor to contribute, especially: during the “‘hard times,” and there were many heart-burnings ~in consequence. The federation hoped that the board would put a stop to the requests for money, lunches, ete. The remonstrance was favorably recelved, and the practices | complained of will be stopped. | It. was decided to not grant the petition asking that a private house be rented for overflow purguses in connection with the | Noe Valley School. Incidental reference was made to the fact that the board had already asked for bids for the construc- tion of & new school building for this par- ticular district and that early action was expected on the part of the Supervisors | in Eranling money for the construction, | Under the present conditions the board has no funds available for school house bullding purposes. The repainting of the Lincoln School bullding was ordered. A. L. Mann was granted a ewal of his High School certificate, as was also Miss Eldora Sew- EIt teacher of bookkeeping. ife diplomas in the grammar grade were awarded to Miss Josephine Harri- gan, Miss Augusta Wright Hobe, Mrs. Florence G. Osborne, and Miss Alice Schendel. On recommendation of the City Board of Examination grammar ade certificates were issued to Miss Fanny Levy, Mrs. H. A. Newhoff, Mrs. Frances Sulnlan Miss Elizabeth A. Leggett, Miss essle . Stachli, Willlam H. Torpey, Miss Nettie V. Erbbe, Nathaniel Sanders, Miss E. B. Crookham, Miss C. Fenton, Miss Myrtle 1. Kratzer, Miss Margaret Dowling. The following changes were made in th assignments of teachers: Miss E. T. Ryan, assistant in Fremont Primary, transferred to Golden Gate Primary; Miss E. Tidd, assistant in John Swett Gram- mar, transferred to Fremont Primar; Miss A. Breeze. assistant in Humboldt Grammar, transferred to John Swett Grammar; Miss E.

A new class will be formed in Bar- rington School; also one in Crocker Gram- mar School. F. Hanley, of the day sub- stitute class, was assigned to Crocker School, Miss Clara Dolan, elected teach- er, was placed in Adams Grammar School, vice Mr. Zimmerman, transferred. The committee on evening schools made recommendations which were adopted, as follows: Mr. Smith O'Brien was chosen assistant in the drawing department of Humboldt Evening School. The following from the substitute list were made proba- tlonary teachers: Miss Maude Hart, to John Swett School; Mrs. M. Stewart, to Lincoln School, for ungraded place; E. Hopfield, to Franklin School; Miss A. Wynne, to Business Evening School; Miss M. Morrissey Coey, to Irving Scott School; Miss L. Hay, to Mission; Miss C. F. McCarthy, to Hearst; N. N.

FIRE DEPARTMENT EXPENSES PROTECTION WHERE THERE IS NOTHING TO BURN. A Lack of System in Placing and Re- pairing Fire rlugs That Is Costly to the City. A matter which will be brought to the attention of the Supervisors as soon as the board reassembles in September is the remarkable increase in the number of city hydrants during the last six months. There have been 107 new ones | placed at various points, some of them in thinly settled portions of the suburbs, not to mention eighty-nine old hydrants which were replaced by new ones, on the allegation that they were worn out, Grave doubts are expressed as to the ne- cessity for all of these additions and re- newals, especla.y in view of the fact that a large profit therefrom accrues to the Spring Valley Water Company. Not a week has passed by of late but what a number of hydrants were quietly added to the already large supply, the grand total at present being 530. Under the present arrangements the ctly pays $6) per year to the Spring Val- ley Company for each of these hydrants, 10 matter whether some of them are used or not, the revenue to the company from this source being quite a respectable sum. The fact that so many hydrants are being located in sparsely settled districts, where the requirements of the Fire Department are practically nothing, and that these hydrants are usually placed by the Su- pervisors after recommendation by the Fire Chiefs, raises a question as to why these things are so. Has the Spring Val- ley Company a mesmeric power over the Fire Department, that it is able to so largely Increase its number of hydrants and its revenues therefrom? This is a question that is puzzling the mind of at least one of the Supervisors, and will be raised at the first opportunity. Not only does the water company de- rive a steady revenue from each hydrant, but it is also allowed a good price for set- ting new hydrants and replacing and re- paifing old ones. The sum of $0 is al- lowed for each new hydrant located and $22 50 for eacu new hydrant replacing an old one. Where old hydrants are re- paired, the compensation of the company is on an equally liberal basis. The city records bring out some inter- esting fact In December, 186, the com- pany charged $18,437 for the water sup- plied to public buildings, hydrants, parks and squares. In December of the following year the charge was $19,993, the increase being directly traceable to new hydrants. For the water supplied dur- ing July of the present year, for which bills were rendered this month, the charge amounted to $20,654¢ 67, revealing the steady upward trend of the bills. In addition to water money the com- any received during the six months end- ng June 30, 1898, the sum of of $6284 50 for new hydrants located and others reset, not having had to supply any material, as the Fire Department had furnished the hydrants, etc., at a cost to the city of $7341 70. Thus the total cost of these hydrants was $13,626 20. The city mains were tapped in 107 new places, the bal- ance of ‘the meney going for renewals. The fixed annual charge of $6420 will be added to the city’'s water bills hence- forth as a result of the addition of the 107 new hydrants. But not only have hydrants been placed in isolated locations in the suburbs, but hydrants have been grouped in bunches in the settled districts, as many as three often being found on one corner. As an jilustration Taylor street from Post to Bush may be cited. At the three street intersections and along and near Taylor street, on the two included blocks, are located fifteen hydrants, some of them in pairs. At the intersection of Taylor and Bush two hydrants are grouped on one corner, while there is none on the corner diagonally opposite. The respunsibflit{\ for the placing of the hydrants rests with the Fire Department, where a prodigality in expenditures is shown in every branch of its work. It is not generally known that the local depart- ment costs more, in proportion to the number of inhabitants in the city, than any other fire department In the United States, but such is shown by recently compiled statistics, now being eirculated by insurance journals. According to the table, San Francisco fire protection costs $2 20 per capita, fliurmg on_ the basis of 3225000 population, shown by the last school census. The cost in other cities, based upon the latest school census, is as fol- ws: 7 N. Y st uiaten Buffalo, N. - X Baltimore, Md . 4 540,000 Washington, D. C 53 255,000 §t.
