Chapman as a Member of AS SCHOOL DIRECTOR Is Seeking Election the Board of Edu- cation as an Independent Candidate IN ALAMEDA, WHO HOPES TO LAMEDA, March 23.—Mrs. L N. Chapman is the one woman can- didate for election to office at the | coming city zlection. She has | been independently } for member of the Board of Education, a | position which she, as a mother directly interested in the schools, believes should be filled by a woman. Mrs. Chapman and her friends of the Political Equality Chub called at g recent meeting of the executive committee of the Harmonie Hall Non-Partisan party andé inquired for “pointers” on how to get a nomination for School Director. Chairman George H. Perry enlightened the women on tha subject and told them how mea usually got in on the “slate” of a conver- tion. They immediately set to work on the 150 delegates to the convention in the ef- fort to make them partial to Mrs. Chap- man’s candidacy and their canvass was a vigorous one. The result of the work done by the women showed itself in tke conventior, ‘where only a narrow margin of votes sep- arated Mrs. Chapman from getting one of the two nominations. If they had com, menced to “do politics” just a few days sooner there would have been a different story to tell. But the time was limited and It was something of a struggle to see even a portion of the delegates. Now Mrs. Chapman 1s going to try for MRS. I. N. CHAPMAN, THE ONLY WOMAN CANDIDATE FOR OFFICE BOARD OF EDUCATION AS AN INDEPENDENT. BE ELECTED A MEMBER OF THE of the times. I am sure Alameda will vote for a woman Bcnoci Director.” The committee in charge of Mrs. Chap- man'’s fight is composed of the following women: Mrs. C. L. Wood, Mrs. George nominated | H.

Is Expected to Bring About a Vast Reform in the National Guard Organization of the State. Special Dispatch to The Call. SACRAMENTO, March 23.—The newv military bill will become a .aw. This an- nouncement was made by Governor Gage to Adjutant General Scamans late this afternoon. The adjutant general Is great- ly pleased with the assurance that the measure has received the approval of the Governor since he is confident that it wiil bring about a vast reform in the National Guard organization. Its general effect will be to modernize the militla laws and bring them into accord with the laws gov- erning the United States army. One of the features of the new law is that it makes the Naval Militia separate and distinct from the National Guard or- ganization to conform to the United States law and practice and places it under the direct orders of the commander-in-chief without reference to division headquar- ters. Under the existing law it is impossi- ble to call a court-martial to try offenses in the Naval Militla, but such authority is clearly designated ‘n the new law. The present regulations prohibit the wearing of other than certain specified medals, and hence the returning Califor- nia soidiers from the Philippines could not, under the law, wear the medals pre- sented to them some months ago by .the Native Sons of the Golden WestgeThls prohibition is removed by the new WHw. Under the old law, when a membeér of | the National Guard enlisted in the rogu- lar army for service in the Spanisu- American or Philippine wars the act was equivalent to a discharge, and if an officer were on the retired list he lost his stan ing thereon by such enlistment. The law changes all this, gives the m'ltl men credit for such enlistment in regular | service and provides for their full rain- ) statement on their return. I sh rt ha term of enlistment of a Natfii! juarcs man _under the new 4w amounts merely to a leave of absence. Under the new law a trained regular army man will not be ('isbarred from ao- pointment as a genert, because he may rot have served the ra'uired time in the National Guard. Adjutant General BSeamans said to- night that he was confident that the new law would bring about many important improvements in the National Guard sys- tem in this State. In fact. he sald, it con- formed as closely as circomstances would admit to the law of Corgress governing the National Guard and Naval Militia of the State and placed them on a much bet- ter footing than heretofore. SHORTAGE IN MILITIA CAPTAIN’S ACCOUNTS STOCKTON, March 2.—It has leaked out here through a notice served by the adjutant general upon the bondsmen of Willlam Bruce,. the_deposed captain of Company B, Sixth Regiment, N. G. that he was relieved of his command for being short in his accounts. The amount given in the notice is $143572. Bruce was able to cover up his peculations by mak- ing false returns to the adjutant general in his quarterly reports as to the amount of money in the bank to the credit of the © It developed that there was no money in the bank at all, and that Bruce ~— election by running independently. She has chosen her campalgn committee and filed her petition and done all the things that a modern bpolitician does when he runs for office; Her campalgn committes is making a house to house canvass, pleading with the wives and daughters to persuade the husbands and brothers io vote for their candidate. The city has been placarded and campaign literature is finding its way to every voter. “If you please, woman suffrage has nothing to do with my campaign,” say Mrs. Chapman. “This effor: to elect me to the School Board is entirely apart from the doctrine of political equality. The only reason 1 am seeking election is because I belleve a woman should be on the School Board. Women are closer to the childran than the men. They are more directly interested in them. They have greater in- fluence with the children thev send to school than anybody else. “Other cities elect women to their schocl boards year after year.

Reld’s residence, a short distance from town. Although Mrs. Reid heard some one open the front gate dur- ing the night she paid little attention to the fact until her ears were greeted a half-hour afterward by an infant's wail. is afternoon it was learned that an attempt had been made to leave the child at the home of John B. Silva, a short dis- tance from the Reid residence. An un- known man p: one of the windows open, evidently with the intention of plac- ing the child inside the front room. The noise awoke Silva's two children, who were lleeglng in the room, and their cries frightened the man away. He was seen hurrying toward the front gate carrying a package in his arms. There is no clew to the identity of either man or child. i iyl <o S STUNG ALMOST TO DEATH BY ARIZONA DESERT BEES Yale Graduate Investigates a Ground ‘Hive and Lands in a Hospital.
