That list was already com- | plete, and teachers on it were in immi- nent danger of being relegated to the un- | assigntd list through the consolidation of classes In schools. But President Mark had provided for the emergency. Mark’s Fraud Upon the Teachers. | When the present Board of Education | assumed its duties a definite system of | | | promotion for teachers was in operation. The previous board had reorganized the department after the scandalous actio of its predecessor. Teachers were as- signed to the unassigned and substitute lists chronologica®y in the order of their appointment 1o the department. This up- peared to be the only reasonable, just method of placing teachers in the depart- ment and was accepied without protest. | The present board, vever, discovered | ¥ in which to provide for its favor- ites and add to the discontent and sense of injustice which was already rampant | in the department. It decided that teachers should not be promoted according to the date of their | entrance into the School Department. If this had been done Mrs. Steele would | have been the last on the unassigned lis: and would have been compelled to pro- gress slowly through the unassigned list, then into the substitute list and finally ho in the regular roll occurred. This is a se- rious process, as some (f the young wom- en who bave been on the substitute list for years and are forced to submit to such favoritism as the Stecle case illustrates can testify. The present board had made the way easy for favcrites. On July 25: Mrs. Steele was dismissed as a special | teacher. A few minuics later she was elected a substitute in the department and a few minutes after that she was as- | signed to the Redding Primary School “at | the request of the principal.”” The job was complete. The joker in the ‘whole affair was the significant phrase “at the request of the principal,”” which has given to the board the’ opportunity to care for favorites at the expense of every | one else. stroyed. ‘When this board assumed office it abol- ished the rule which provides that pro- motion in the department shall be made according to the date of appointment. In a single sentence the board destroyved the discipline of the department and declared that promotions shall be made “at the request of the principal.” Mark and his assoclates claimed that greater efficiency | be asslgned to fill the vacancy. When It 1 | member. | can formulate and nounced that Miss M. A. of the Redding Primary School, requested Mrs. Steele, who was thereupon appoint- ed. In one night she had been admitted to the department, passed all the stages ion and had received a regular 1 school. Eight days later Miss Deane asked and received a leave of ab- sence for one year. It is such methods as these through which teachers who have been in the School Department for years are deprived of their salaries and are kept indefinitely on the unassigned list that permit favor- ites to receive the patronage of President Mark and of the board of which he is a This affair has created a deal of scandal in the department, but teachers no remedy more effective than that of protesting and exposipg the methods of the board. y srariae SAY MERIT, BUT MEAN PULL. Miss Cleary, an Unassigned Teacher, Explains the Board of Educa- tion System. Miss E. B. Cleary, one of the twenty- seven teachers who at the Monday even- ing meeting of the Board of Education was plnced on the unassigmed list with- out pay, Is collecting School Board sta- tistics and at the same time trying to ar- range in chronological order the many various positions she has occupied n the School Department. All this she is ‘doing in the vain hope that thereby she may glean a faint idea of the gov- erning system of the Board of Education, | and perhaps at the same time discover where she Is at. Miss Cleary was appointed February 23, 1588, and assigned a regular class at the Douglas School. After teaching six months she was consolidated out by the Bergerot board and placed on the unas. signed list without pay. Two weeks later Miss Cleary was put on the substitute list and continued on that list till Mon- day evening, when President Mark’s board put her back again with the unas- signed teachers. Miss Cleary feels she has not been fai ly treated by the board and is not averse to stating just how she feels in the mat. ter. “I do not consider that we have been fairly treated,” said Miss Cleary yester- day, “and when I say ‘we’ I mean all of us teachers who have been consolidated out without any regard to any of the rules the board has adopted in the matter, First it was decided that the younger teachers should be the victims of consoli- dation and that they should be reap- pointed in chronological order. Then that rule was dorfe away with and it was de- cided that merit should be the test of re- appointment, and that the principal in whose school the vacancy occurred was to ask for a teacher to fill that vacancy, and that his demand should be governed by his judgment of the called for teacher’'s ability. “Now I know,” continued Miss Cleary, hat that merit system has also been done away with. The board members will tell you that it has not, and they wiil be correct in their assertion if you can conceive of ‘merit’ being the synonym for ‘pull.’™ “When I was on the substitute list,” explained Miss Cleary, “there was a va- cancy in the Agassiz School and Miss Sallle Jones, the principal, asked Presi- dent Mark and Director Casserly that I | lege. Deane, principal |y came to the matter of appointing me Miss Jones was- told that it could not be done because her request had been verbally made instead of being formally presented in writing. Miss Jones thereupon made a written request, but she was denied the privilege of selecting her teacher. Miss Harney, who was consolidated out of Stanford School, was put in the place, and the explanation offered was that the con- solidated teachers of the present board must take preference in matter of ap- pointment.” According to Miss Cleary Mrs. C. R. Pechin made a request that Miss Lucile O’'Connell be appointed to fill a vacan2y in her school. Miss’O'Connell filled the position for a month and then was re- | called and Miss Amy Cookson, one of Mark's consolidated teachers, was put in her place. The month that Miss O'Con- nell served she received substitute pay that is $2 50 per day. Miss Cookson wa given regular pay, which amounts to con- siderably more. Mrs. P. Ostrom and Mi Madge Dowling are two other teachers who, according to Miss Cleary, had to | make way for the proteges of President Mark. “Do you call that system?” asked Miss Cleary, after citing the aforesaid cases. “I don’t. I call it favoritism.” The fact that the board claims consoli- dation is a matter of necessary economy is a subject productive of much amuse- ment to Miss Cleary. ‘They talk of economy,” sald the de- posed teacher, ““and with the same breath they make places for thirty special in- structors and establish seven cooking schools with heaven only many gas stoves, consuming any quantit; of gas. “I wonder,” sald Miss Cleary, in con- clusion, ‘“‘whether it can really be true that the board is standing in with the gas company TEACHERS’ ANNUITY SOCIETY IS TO MEET Constitution and By-Laws Submitted at Last Mezting Will Be Passed Upon. The Public School Teachers' Annuity and Retirement Society of San Francisco | will hold a meeting to-morrow afternoon at 4 o'clock in the assembly chamber of the Board of Education.

The attendance at St. John's bazaar last night was the largest there has been this week. All through the evening the main hall was thronged by crowds of peo- | ple all trying to outdo each other in tak- ing chances in raflles for everything under the sun—in fact from a chance on a ton of coal to a ticket in the ratfle for a grey- hound pup. A number of the priests from other par- ishes paid the fair a visit last night Father Quinn of St. Brigd's parish came early in the evening and went right down the line, buying something in every booth. Father Harkett was a close second in spending money in the good of the cause. e was surrounded all the time he was in the fair by a bevy of pretty girls, who were -trying to dispose of their rafile tickets. To-night the Sacred Heart orchestra will render a splendid programme. Tho orchestra will be under the direction of Brother Hosea. It is more than possible that there will be also some fine vocal selections by some of the best musical talent In the city. At the close of the concert there will be a hop and a general good time.

The association wi meet the last of the week,.but no busi- ness of importance is scheduled to come up. THEATRICAL BENEFIT SWELLS DUBOCE FUND Performance at Alta Theater Nets a Tidy Sum for the Soldier's , Widow. A tidy sum,amounting to more than $100, was added to the fund for the benefit of the widow of the late Colonel Victor D. Duboce as a result of the benefit per- formance given'last night at the Alta Theater. The pretty place of amusement was comfortably filled and the audience, in return for ifs patronage, was treated | to a splendid performance In the rendition | of the popular drama, “East Lynne.” The pray was well cast and the members of the company certainly merited the ap- plause given them for their clever acting. During the first act Captain Jack Craw- ford, the poet scout, who Is announced for an engagement at the theater for next week, recited several poems and related incidents of the life of Wild Bill, illus- trating how that frontiersman received his death wound. —————— Ten Four-Round Bouts.
