BERKELEY, Jan. 14.—The University of California Glee Club came in from the north to-night after what proved to be one of the most successful tours, musi- cally, and most disastrous, financially, that the club has ever taken. The tour included concerts at Marys- | ville, Red Bluff, Redding, Yreka, Ashland, Albany, Salem, Grants Pass, Caico, Port- land, Tacoma, Everett, New Whatcom, Seatile and Eugene. The net loss on the | tour will amount .to a thousand dollars. As the last year's management handed down a deficit of some nine hundred dol- jars the organization seems to be threaf ened with serious difficulties. The boys | are not discouraged, however. Perfect harmony prevails and the members ex- press a determination to go to work and Wipe out the debt before the summer comes. — s DEWEY ON EMIGRATION. Admiral Dewey's cousin, W. W.

The Jupanese army is being quietly placed upon a war footin, d of any power ever was more ready for active ogermon than that now sailing under the Japanese flag.

REGULARS WILL DO THE WORK SALARY CONTROVERSY NOT YET QUIETED. iy T I All Elementary Committee Work Placed in the Superintendent’s Hands and Great Improve- ment Is Expected. RS If the plans of Superintendent Webster are permitted to mature, a thorough over- hauling of the local School Department will soon be begun, and as a result of it | a few short of half a hundred evening school teachers will be given an oppor- tunity to look for some other employment in which to spend their late hours. The | work, which under previous administra- tions has been done by the Elementary Committee, was turned over to Mr. Web- | ster by the last Board of Education and | the new board has given him practically as much power. The reclassification of schools and the readjustment of educa- tional facilities are now all planned by him and laid before the board with his recommendations for ratification. Mr. Webster proposes to begin with the evening schools. Two of them at least will be closed. The Rincon and the Spring | was very touchin Valley Evening schools are in bad econdi- tion, and it is probable that they will be abolished and the classes merged with those in other districts. The abolition of schools, however, is not the chief feature of the Superintendent's plan; it is the | abolition of evening school teachers in which he is interested, and in which is centered the greatest interest of the regu- lar_teachers of the department. Nearly all of the evening school in- structors are regularly employed at some other occupation during the day and take | the school work solely to augment their income. A number of them now in the employ of the department are the recipi- ents of salaries of $150 per month, A num- ber of others are getting from $100_to $135. | They are working as clerks or bookkeep- | ers for downtown business houses and | some of them are practicing lawyers. In | the opinion of Superintendent Webster | they are not fit for educational purposes after they have had their minds wrapped up all day in matters of business and he | thinks the money they are drawing would | b better placed if it were distributed among the regular day teachers who draw | less salary. According to Mr. Webster, education is their business and sole con- | cern and he is planning to replace those | who are let out with day teachers, whose | salaries will be increased accordingly. It is upon this plan of reorganization | that really hinges the fight that Mr. Web- | ster i3 making to appoint his own depu- ties. He does not propose to let the Board of Education dictate his appointments in order to pay political debts to the “(‘1"—; ganization.” 1If any dictating is done it will be by the teachers themselves. Mr. | Webster is highly elated at the interest | and pride the pedagogues are taking in | his plans for improvement, and he con- siders that they know best 'who could ac- complish the largest results in acting as his assistants. Accordingly he proposes that all of his deputies shall be chosen from the practical working force. He has already proffered appointment to three or four of them, but they have declined to give up profitable principalships for the puny salary which the board is attempt- ’"fi to_force upon them. r. Webster, however, is confident of a satisfactory agreement.' He has the sup- port of President Cecil Mark. ex-Presi- ent P, A. Bergerot and Professor L. A. Jordan, the present Assistant Superinten- dent, and at the meeting on Wednes day 'he proposes to go before the board and make a formal demand, unless it is | settled beforehand at another “dark lan- | tern caucus ————— Ex-President’s Brother Hurt. BEAUMONT, Texas, Jan. 14.—Q. S. Har- | rison, a real estate man of Kansas City, a brother of ex-President Harrison, was kicked on the head by a viclous horse here. He was knocked senseless and his skull was fractured. He s resting easily | under the influence of opfates and his physicians hope for his recovery. REV. J. A. B. WILSON MAKES APPEAL TO CITY OFFICIALS Rev. Dr. John A. B. Wilson of the Howard-street Methodist Church in his discourse on “Things to Come’ last even- ing made an appeal to the Supervisors and Police Commissioners to make and enforce a law by which the saloons of this city may be controlled. He advo- cated the closing at midnight of all places where liquor is sold and the abolishing of all side and private entrances; also to haye all saloons closed on the Sabbath. “Side rooms and private apartments should be abolished,” said he. “It is in these places where the evils of the com- munity are hatched and matured. Inno- cent young women are led Into these itfalls of the devil to be ruined for life. hree-fourths of all evils that are per- petrated in the community take place in the saloons after midnight. It is in these places where robberies, bloodshed and other crimes are conceived, when respec- table and God-fearing people are at their homes and in their beds. The new Board of Supervisors will have to re-enact all of the ordinances and the Police Commis- sioners have full and complete control over the {ssuance of liquor licenses. Then, it is not asking too much to have these two boards properly regulate the sale of intoxicants within the city limits, A CLEAR CONSCIENCE BRINGS GREAT JOY AND CONTENTMENT Rev. F. B. Cherington delivered a ser- mon on ““The Authority of Consclence” to the congregu.uon of Plymouth Congrefl- tlolréu.l ‘hurch yesterday morning. 5 sald: Conscience {8 the most mysterfous yst most vividly real and potent thing in man's nature. Bound up inseparably with the deepest and best things In our constitution is a recogniiton of the authority of the little word '‘oughi To obediently regard it brings a sense of and_satisfattion to the inner life.

This consclence is an un- welcome companion with the man who has settled it with himself that he will stick at nothing which would hinder him in money. Zetting, place-seeking or pleasure-hunting. He Who seeks to silence It by searing in with & hot iron or by smothering it or killing it out- right has already sold himself to Satan. The best in him is dead and the worst is in power.

A. Wood. He upheld the authen- ticity of the Scriptures by stating that it | was easily susceptible of proof that the Old Testament, as we now have it, is identical with the Bible of the Jews in the time of Christ. Jullan, Claus and Por- phyry he regarded as the first crities of any note, and he said other strongly hos- tile critics did not arise until after the Reformation. During the last half-cen- tury the chief method of attack has been through the so-called higher criticism. After a general review of the subfect he declared that the Bible had successfully run the gauntlet of criticism for centuries and was & more potent force for good to- day than ever before. ———— TWELVE APOSTLES DISCUSSED BY THE REV. DR. NELANDER Rev. E. Nelander of the First English Lutheran Church last night preached on “The Apostolic Duodecomvirate.” He sald in part: The apostles were plain men who had not been perverted by the faise philosophies, tra- ditlons and morals of the day. Th ‘were men of "the third estate" neither nor beggars. All were unlette yet Tien of abllity, They were all townsmen, men of affairs, accustomed to busy, ical lite. They were men of passions and Infirmitics sim- flar to ours. The charcoal was chanced into | diamonds. They were far from faultiess, but the faults were flaws In a jewel, not the crudeness of charcoal. In a broad and blessed sense Christ bhas made all his followers apostles.
