If they are not healthy, round and rosy, ready for study or ay, there is probably something | ng in the food A sure body builder for children (or adults) is Grape-Nuts, the famous ready-cooked food, and son. Grape-Nuts contain phate of potash a natural phos- d albumen obtained from grains, and these clements com- bine in the human body to form gray matter in brain and nerve cells all over the body. Such nourishment means vigor, snap, strength and force of both mind and body. That is sclentific feed ing. Now add a good hot cup of Po tum Cereal Food Coffee (well hoiled, mind you), and a slice of entire wheat bread and you have the youngsters fed in a way that will bring the biggest kind of returns as they grow up and vou see what they accomplish because they have well built bodies and good sturdy brains.

When the board convened Secretary Dunne read a communication from Miller & Lux in which they stated that the mat- ter had been brought to their r and that they had no desire to prosecute | Flanagan. Noll did not appear, as he did | not wish to air the facts of his quarrel | with the Deputy I cter before the | board.

Tilles Paid Two Hundred Dollars to Break the,Sabbath. It cost John Tilles, a fisherman, just $200 1d fees of an attorney to go fishing on inday. Yesterday he was fined that amount by Judge Hitchcock of Suisun for violating the State law which prohibits the catching of salmon between sundown | Saturday cvening and sundown on Sun- day evening. The law was passed in or- der to glve these fish an opportunity to | 80 up the rivers to spawn, but if’ the nets of the fishers in the lower bay are set all of the time during the run but few | e ape. The up-river fishermen favor the law, but those farther down the bay want It changed. The arrest of Tilles was made | by Deputy Davis on April 9, together with the confiscation of the man's net and Dboat. Another net, for which no one I laid claim, was found and taken at the same time. This has brosen up the Sun- day fishing in Montezuma slough. e | AN ALUMNI BANQUET. new Friendships Around the Banquet Board. The Alumni Assoclaiton of St. Mary's College held its annual banquet last even- ing at a down-town r urant. About 100 graduates were seated at the banquet board. Stephen L. Sullivan, president of the alumni, acted as toastmaster. The following toasts were appropriately re- ponded to: “The College—Past and Present,” Ste- phen L. Sullivan; “The Younger Ele- ment,” John E.

NO POLITICS IN THE LATEST DE- MAND OF SUPERINTENDENT. | | Schools Can Only Be Graded by an | Inspection of the Pupils’ Work and That Must Be Writ- ten Out. | There has been a great deal of criti- s of school children on “m‘- scheme of the Superintendent of Schoc to demand from the classes writ- ten examinations to qualify for promo- tion. It has been denounced as a plan to save work for the teachers and an at- tempt to shift the responsibility for a failu from the teachers, who should | know the capabilities of the pupil, to the pupil. It is charged that it is an attempt on the part of the feacher to cram the undone work of months into a few weeks, muc the detriment of the child's star d it has also been charged that it iS an attempt to evade the proper responsibilities of the instructor. Superintendent Webster says, however, | that the scheme-is only to allow of a more uniform grading of the schools. As it is now, he . the only way he can judge of the standing of a school 3 an examination. He cannot go to every school in the city and personally exam- ine each c , and so he must judge b the standing of the puplils in an examin It is of vital importance, he says,tha be on an_educational equal- tion each school ity with every other. In some schools the highest grade is below the second grade of another, and when pupils are trans- ferred from one to another they find themselves either behind and unable to catch up, or they are far ahead and have to go over the work they have often ] before: they lose time, grow list- and idle, and a real harm is done. The only way to keep schools on-an equality, Mr. Webster says, is to exam- ine the pupils to find out just how far they have inced, and having done that, to the slow ones and keep icance in the vas reported 1 of examinations find fault with at one time that the id grew out of a desire to the teachers, and by securing resigna- tions from those whose cl. s made the poorest showing make room for more ap- pointments to pay the political debts of the board; but this idea is scouted by the Superintendent. He says there cai be no politics in such a_proceeding, and he lets it go at that. It is well known that one teacher may an exception- ally dull class, while another may have an” exceptionally_bright one, and it is re- alized that the best proof of a teacher's | ability is not always found in the stand- ing of her pupil —_—————————— A FIT SAVED HIS LIFE. | A Despondent VLover Was About to | Make a Second Attempt at Suicide. Fred Redhouse, who threw himself in front of one of the Sutro electric cars | about three days ago and who afterw | stated that his perilous position was the result of an accident, was taken to the | Receiving Hospital early this morning suffering from the effects of a fit. Short- ly after his arrival there some one com- municated with Alice Reynolds, with whom Redhouse is in love, stating that he had cut his throat, and shortly afte ward the woman appeared with the fol- | lowing letter which she had received a short time before My Dear Alice: When you read this letter in the other world. I wish when I will be ‘ !lhrfl\v myself on the Sutro rallroad track that | T had been cut in two. I love you better than | my life, and without you I don’t want to live | To-night 1 am going to the Louvre and intend | to cut my throat. You have deserted me and { I have nothing more to live for. FRED. After writing the letter Redhouse went | to the Louvre, but before he had a chance to carry out his intentions he was seized | with a fit' and taken away in an ambu- | lance. He had no weapno in his posses- sion, but is said_to have always carried a razor. He probably intended to secure a deadly weapon in the saloon. —_— e It Is Not a Trust. | The Supreme Court vesterday handed | down an opinion in the case of the estate | of Charles A. Steel, deceased of Los An- | geles, affirming the judgment and order | of the lower court. W. M., Charles A. and Idella D. Steel, children of the de- ceaséd, applied to the Superior Court for an order of distribution of a nortion of the property, which was denied. It was from this denial that the appeal was taken. They contended that the will of their father purports to vest the estate in trustees for the benefit of the widow and certain other children, and that the trust Is void under the statutes of the vil Code against perpetuities. The Su- preme Justices do not take this view of the will, and the appeal was denied. —_—e———— Christian Endeavor Reception. A reception was tendered by the Golden | Gate Union of the Christian Endeavor Society to its recently elected president, J. A. Wiles, in the parlors of Calvary Church last eyening. The evening was enjoyably spent in music and speeches. Mr. Wiles addressed his friends and gave an interesting account of the recent prog- ress of the soclety, stating that Dr. Clark. president of the United Soclety, had remarked that the recent State con- vention in Oakland was the largest he had ever attende To Protest Against Imperialism. A grand mass meeting will be held at | the Metropolitan Temple this evening un- der the auspices of the Socialist Labor party. The object of the meeting will be | to protest against imperialism and the war. A large crowd will be in attend- | ance and several prominent speakers will | be on hand for the occaslon. In addition to the discussion a programme has been | prepared which includes vocal and instru- ! mental music and recitations. —————————— A Bunko Man Arrested.

LOVING TRIBUTE 10 MEMORY 0 THOMAS MOORE L Admirers of the Poet Sing His Praises. ML ke FEAST OF MUSIC AND VERSE| T e | S | DR. VOORSANGER EULOGIZES THE “SWEET SINGER.” | Celebration of the 119th Anniversary of the Birth of Ireland’s Minstrel- Patriot in Metropolitan Temple. Sles gt Metropolitan Temple was filled to over- flowing last night by the admirers of Thomas Moore, the “Sweet Singer of Ireland,” the occasion being the celebra- tion of the one hundred and nineteenth anniversary of the birth of Ireland's patriot-minstrel by the Balfe-Moore Club. The interior of the temple was hand- somely decorated with the national colors of Erin, ferns, palms and roses, while the stars and stripes were prominently dis- played in the center of the stage, form- ing a drapery for the speaker's desk. Thomas R. Bannerman presided, and be- side him on the stage were seated Rev. Dr. Voorsanger, the orator of the even- ing, and Mayor Phelan. The programme was of rare merit and artistically ar- ranged and rendered. Every number was applauded with true Irish impartiality, and the vocal solos by Miss A. Rooney | nd Miss E. V. McCloskey were especially avored in this respect. But the feature of the evening the address of Dr. Voorsanger on ‘“Thomas Moore as an Irish Nationalist.” Dr, oorsanger made a decided hit by his apt remark when introduced by Mr. Bannerman. “I can think of but two things that recommended me to Mr. Bannerman as the orator of this occasion,” he said. “One is that I looked so much like an Irishman, and the other that being a Jewish theologian I must needs know s e than any one else. It was several minutes before the tu- mult of laughter and applause subsided, and then the speaker proceeded to pay a glowing tribute to the poet whom all Irishmen love to honor. 'He declared that the battle-cry of the Irish as poured forth in song by Moore was the ancient battle- cry given to the children of Israel by nd which has become the battle- of all liberty-loving peoples of the rid, ““God, country and human liberty. he 'speaker's remarks that the part taken by the Irish in developing this country = was suflicient answer to the boasted pretense that this country was altogether built up by the Anglo-Saxons was roundly applauded. In conclusion Dr. Voorsanger said that while Moore ad- vocated peaceful methods as against des: perate deeds to secure the freedom of Ireland, he regarded him as the true Irish Nationalist.

James de Fremery, who, according to the telegraphic dispatches, died in Colo- rado while en route to this city, was the founder of the well-known firm of Gilde- meester, De Fremery & Co. of this city, which is still in existence under the firm name of James de Fremery & Co. The deceased was president of the Chamber of Commerce for two terms and was active in the management of the Sav- ings and Loan Society, the Giant Powder Company, the American Sugar Refining Company, several Oakland street railway companies and various other enterprises. He was also Consul for the Netherlands for many years, receiving in recognition of his services the order of Knight of the Netherlands Lion. He was also Consul for Mecklenberg Schwerin. His work, however, by which he was best known In this city was in connec- tion with the San Francisco Savings Union, founded by himself, John Archi- bald, Albert Miller and others in 1862, and of which he was president for about twenty-five years, the success of the Insti- tution being in great measure due to his financial skill and the confidence reposed by the public in his prudence and integ- rity Mr. de Fremery was born on February 17, 1826, on the ‘estate of his famlly at Ouwendyck, near The Hague, Holiand. Leaving home at an early age, he arrived in New York in 1845, where he engaged in commercial pursuits. He remained there three years and left for California by way of Panama, arriving here in 1849, Socially he was excellent company, hos- pitable and charitable; deserving poverty never appealed to him in vain, and his charities followed the ungrateful as they did those who appreciated his benevo- lence. He was a man of extensive read- ing, and a writer of force; he contributed to the newspapers when there were ob- jects to accomplish in the Interests of progress and good government; he wrote miscellaneous articles on many’ occasions, and published several books. Of late vears he has been busy with the prepara- tlon of a local history. The wife of Mr. de Fremery died several vears since in Switzerland. "For descend- ants he leaves a_son, James L. de Frem- ery, resident in New York, and a daugh- ter, the wife of P. J. Van Loben Sels, re- siding at the homestead in Oakland. CHOSEN FRIENDS. Celebration in Honor of the Founda- tion of the Order Twenty Years Ago. So great was the crush at 0dd Fellows' Hall last night by those who desired to attend the twentieth anniversary cele- bration and jubilee of the Order of Cho- sen Friends that before the second num- ber on the programme had been an- nounced it became necessary to close the | outer doors, and by reason of this hun- | dreds were denied admission. An inter- esting programme of musi ongs and specialties of a high order was present- ed, those taking part being Miss May S. Katie Krone, the Waterman S Stanley Rankin, Professor Tra- velle, liam Fletcher and the Miss Annie and Grace Shean. There was also an address by Grand Councilor W. H. Savage, remarks by Past Grand Councilor Boehm, and the presentation of Chosen Friends' watches to a number of ladies and gentlemen in recognition of thelr services to the order. ———————— DEWEY’S COUSIN IS HERE. a Visit to the Admiral. A. B. Dewey of Chicago, a cousin of Admiral Dewey, arrived yesterday with his wife from Hongkong on the steamer China. Mr. Dewey has been In Manila and Japan since January and in March called upon his {llustrious relative on his flagship, the Olympia, in Manila Bay. He spent three weeks in and about the city and on the American firing line. He ridicules the reports of Dewes health and says that, on the contrar , the admiral was in good spirits and in much better physical condition than he would expect to find a man of his years after the ordeal he had been through. Mr. Dewey says the American volun- teers, while they would be glad to be home, at the same time are anxious to stay where they are as long as there Is fighting to do. The health of the bo; he says, is better than at any time sir they left Sarr Francisco and the hospital service has been reduced to an almost perfect working basis. Mr. and Mrs. Dewey leave for Monterey and Santa Cruz. PORT CHARGES IN MEXICAN PORTS IMPORTANT CIRCULAR ISSUED BY THE CONSUL. t0-morrow Lighterage Fees Being Unlawfully Assessed on Ships and Cargoes in the Southern Re- public. The following circular conveying im- portant information regarding port charges in Mexican ports h: sued by the local Mexican Consul: The President of the republic ha ordered that the Consulate shall, by every means at its disposal, make known to the shippers of goods into our country that the Government has been informed that some navigation companies have wrongfully charged them for lighterage, dockage and ton- nage on loading and unloading other charges, expenses and 3 fees, which are or are not paid, but are charged fraudulently by the com- panies to the shippers or consignees or which, if paid, amount to much le |hm‘] charged to them by the com- panies. The President recommends to you that in the notices issued by the Con- sulate and posted in the office care should be taken to state that for the benefit of the shippers of goods into the republic, as also of those com- panies that do not commit the abu referred to, he has ordered that s notice be given so that they m all instances verify the exactn the charges that the companies make for port dues. In the notice it should be that the only fiscal port dues charge- able to merchandise on its importa- tion, and which, according to law, the Custom-houses should collect from the importers, and not from the ships, is that of *loading and unloading,” a?pllcablc at present only at the port of Vera Cruz, and at the rate of $1 (silver) for each ton of 1000 kilograms of merchandise, gross weight, except those specified in Circulars Nos. 83 and 85, of July 28 and of September 30, 1898, which said merchandise pays only 50 cents for each ton weight. Cargoes Subee(‘( to the dues stated which are discharged totally by means of lighters, or those which are trans. shipped from one ship to another an- chored in the port of Vera Cruz, com ing consigned to other places, pay only one-half of the rate before men- tioned. All ‘other port dues chargeable at ports of foreign entry are imposed on the ships and not on the merchandise. Notice must also be given that, ac cording to the laws of the country, no fiscal dues are paid in gold, but in silver, and that the charges made in some ports by some companies, au- thorized therefor by the Government, are also payable in silver; as for ex- ample, the so-called ‘“bar dues” charged by the Canalization Company of the port of Tampico, the charges for unloading on private wharves or on those of construction companies, such as those at Progreso, Frontera and Laguna (Carmen Island), and also the expense of lighterage, delivery and other fees that some companies are accustomed to charge as in addition to the freight. Finally, regarding those vessels that bring merchandise, with lighterage paid, to ports such as Vera Cruz,where dues for loading and unloading are payable, attention ‘should be called to the fact that if the vessel ties up to the wharf or dock there is no expense of lighterage, and there- fore dues for loading and unloading are charged in full; but if there should be ll?ht?rsge then those dues are re- duced one-half, as already stated; but in either event the dues for loading and unloading are chargeable to the importers and not to the ships. Lo e TO TRY MIDWEEK COURSING. At the Instance of Leashmen the Ex- periment Will Be Tried at TUnion Park.
