12 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, AUGUST 23, 1901. RACING KING3 10 COME WEST Colors of the Great Sta- bles to Fly in Cali- fornia. Thomas H. Williams Jr. Is All Enthusiasm Over Season’s Prospects. S e Thomas H. Williams Jr., president of the New California Jockey Club, arrived from the East and Europe yesterday, ac- | companied Ly his bride. They went im- | mediately to their home in Oakland. Mr. ‘Williams is enthusiastic over the prospects of high class racing at BEmeryville and Tanfcran this season and says the colors | of the crack racing stables of the East | will fly this Wwinter at the two tracks of | the New California Jockey Club. The names of the wealthiest patrons of the | £port of kings in the United States wiil | appear upon the cards when the season | opens, and the public is promised great sport in the horse racing line. This is one resuit of Mr. Williams’ Eastern trip. He | went away on a wedding tour, but he at- | tended to some very important business | while enjoying his honeymoon. Mr. and Mrs. Williams made a tour of | Ireland and England, paid a visit to France, and returning stopped for brief periods in the principal Eastern cities. The members of Mrs. Willlams’ famul and a few intimate friends were waliting 1o receive them when they reached their home in Oakland and gave them a cor- dial welcome. “We are going to have representatives from nearly every one of the big Eastern stables here this winter,”” said President i t night. “William C.

Bennett Deceived by Young Man She Met. Swears Out Warrant for His Arrest on Felony Em- bezzlement Charge. AL Mrs. Amanda V. Bennett of Los Angeles and at present residing at 54 Sixth street secured a warrant from Judge Cabaniss vesterday for the arrest of J. W. Liddel on a charge of felony embezzlement. It is another case of woman's confidence and man’s deceit. Mrs. Bennett is a handsome woman 26 years of age. She has a husband and two children in Los Angeles. She and her hus- band did not get along well together and she decided to leave him and her children and strike out for herself, as she felt that she was quite competent’ to make a way for herself in the world without any man's assistance. She decided to go to Nome to start a boarding-house and took $500 in gold with her. On the train to Seattle she met Lid- del, who is a good looking voung fellow, 25 years of age. In conversation he told her he was also going to Nome and they became very friendly. When they reached BSeattle she had so much confidence in her new-found friend that she gave him the $500 to keep for her, as she thought it would be safer in the money belt that he wore around his walst than in her purse. They could not get a suitable vessel in Seattle, so they decided to come to this city and engage passage on a vessel from here. They arrived here Wednesday and engaged rooms at 54 Sixth street. Yester- day morning Liddel left the house and shortly after he had gone Mrs. Bennett discovered a letter that he had written to her before leaving. In the letter Liddel told her that he thought it would be im- prudent for them to go to Nome together, so he had left her and had gone to Oak land to engage a room there. He begged her not to worry, as he would advise her as to his whereabouts. She believed that he intended to abscond with her money, hence the warrant for Liddel's arrest. The amount he is accused of embezzling s $400, as she had got at various times $100 from him to pay her expenses, MRS. LAURA L. TRAVER % APPEARS AS ATTORNEY Declines to Leave Her Happy Home Until She Gets Her Money Back. Mrs. Laura L. Traver, who resides at 2627 Mission street, who has been di- vorced from three husbands and whose life is replete with other episodes of in- terest, appearad in Judge Graham's court vesterday morning as her own attorney in defense of her right to the home where- in_she now resides. Mrs. _Annfe V. Finn filed suit to eject Mrs. Traver_frcm the Mission street home. Mrs.- Finn owns the ground upon which the building is located. Years ago she leased the land to J. C. Traver, fath- er-in-law of Mrs. Traver. The lease ex- pired some time 2go and Mrs. Finn sought 1o gain possession of the land. Mrs. Tra- ver refused to move and the suit re- sulted. By way of introduction to her defense Mrs. Traver admitted that the land be- ionged to Mrs. Finn, but, she continued, the building beionged to the Traver es- tate. She had paid out $130 on improve- ments, she said, and didn’t intend to move until she got her money back. Ta- ver, who secured a divorce from Mrs. Traver last the stand to prove that the lease had ex- pired. Mrs. Traver anrounced that she liked his nerve and also referred to him as “that man.” Judge Graham took the case under advisement. month because she horse- | | whipped him on the Mission road, took DEGREE OF HONORARY GRAND CHAPLAIN FOR ARCHBISHOP RIORDAN Young Men’s Insfitute Closes Its Labors With the Election and ~Installation of Officers for the Current Term---Banquet Speeches Are Interspersed With Instrumental Music and Song e HE fourth and closing day of the session of the Grand Council of the Young Men's Institute was marked by the visit of his Grace Archbishop Riordan and the con- ferring upon him of the title of honorary grand chaplain, the election of officers for the current term and the adoption of resolutions to the memory of the late Stephen M. White. Shortly after the opening of the session J. W. Sullivan, P. J. McGarry and A. F. St. Sure, the committee on the Stephen M. White memorial, presented the follow- ing resolutions, which, after being read, were adopted by a standing vote: Whereas, The late Hon. Stephen M. White Wwas a member of the Young Men's Institute, Pacific jurisdiction, and Whereas, By his energy and strons person- ality he rose from the humble plane of his early life through successive gradations to one of the most exalted positions within the Bift of the United States; and Whereas, In his life he all but attained the institute’s’ ideal of Catholic citizenship, and therefore gave us from our own ranks ons whose Jife was an embodiment of that for which_we are all striving under our motto, *Pro Deo, Pro Patria’: be 1t Resolved, That this seventeenth Grand Coun- cil, Young Men's Institute, Pacific jurisdiction, signalize the merits of the late Hon. Stephen M. White; be it further Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be forwarded to Mrs. Hortense White and fam- ily, with the assurance of the condolence and respect of the seventeenth Grand Council of the Young Men's Institute. Eloquent Eulogy Upon White. The adoption of the memorial was fol- lowed by an eloquent eulogy upon the life work of the deceased as a citizen of California, as a member of the United States Senate and as a member of the in- stitute. It was a glowing tribute to the memory of one who was held in high esteem by thousands of people who knew him personally and by his work. The choice of the next place of meet- ing was left to the incoming board of grand directors. If Napa does not press its claim for the Honor of having the next sion of the Grand Council an effort 1 be made to have it held in Los An- geles, There was an amendment to the consti- tution which in future will admit to hon- orary membership members of any eccle- siastical body, that honor having in the past been limited to priests. \ At the afternoon session Supreme Presi- dent Plerce and Rev. Father Sullivan were appointed , a committee to escort Archbishop Riordan into the coun- cil chamber. He was presented and re- ceived with the honors due his station, after which he was welcomed by Rev. Father Slattery, the grand chaplain, who informed him that he had been chosen to fill the newly created office of honorary grand chaplain. The distinguished visitor returned his thanks for the honor conferred and then spoke for about half an hour. He com- mended the institution for the good work it has been engaged in, and stated that in view of the good it had hone he hoped that a council will be instituted in every parish in the jurisdiction and suggested that each parish priest direct his efforts in that direction. He expressed his satis- faction that the name had not been changed, saying that previous to the vote he had not expressed an opinfon relative to the matter, fearing that what he might say might have influenced the dele- gates. He then delivered an eloquent ad- dress to Catholic young men and urged them to do all in their power to build up character. The per capita tax was fixed at 90 cents for the Grand Council expenses, 35 cents for the educational bureau and 30 cents for the Supreme Council. Grand Officers Selected. The election for grand officers resulted — Mothers ! What looks mor: fetehing than a pretty sailor? Just like the picture, that swell sailor, in blue cloth, all sizes.

The big white tents of the Ringling Bros.’ circus, with all their living features, will become a part of San Francisco early Sunday morning. The show grounds, be- fore the average citizen is awake, will he a “white-winged city,” around which small boys will gather and gaze and chat- ter with an interest nothing else can in- spire. It is doubtful if the first yellow wagon will reach the lot Sunday morning before the boy enthusiast. He is bound to be there If he has to sit up all night for the purpose. The Ringling shows are claimed to be the biggest aggregation in America. The number of animal dens that compose their menagerie, the number of high-priced per- formers employed in their circus pro- gramme, the extraordinary herd of eie- phants (thirty in all), the sixty-one-horse act of John O'Brien, the Dacoma, Fisher and Farley families, the Holloway trio, Amclia Feely, the. young equestrienne, Albert Crandall, John_Rooney, Fred Mil- ler and Willlam De Van, expert riders, and too many more to mention here, the thousand or more people they carry on their payroll, the great hippodrome feat- ures they present, the huge arenic tent, necessary for three circus rings, three big stages, a racing oval one-quarter of a mile in length, a seating capacity of 15,009 people, all of these items are of important account in showing the evolution of the eircus under the glrectlnn of the Ring- ling brothers. The street parade Monday morning, starting from —the show grounds at % o’clock, will be mgre than two miles in length and subdivided into thirty sections, There will be a military display, com- posed of uniformed types of the crack regiments of the great nations of the world, many of the gilded cages in which wild animals are penned will be open und for the children's delight there will be a miniature menagerie and pony chariot, oc- cupied by graven images of fairy land ideals. There will be elephants, twenty camels, pretty ponies, blooded horses, smartly dressed riders, trained goats, dogs and monkeys and a hundred and one other features of curious interest to make the procession a variegated and glittering one. —_— e Wants New Blood in Schools. According to School Director Casserly, the teachers at present employed in the department need expect no favors in the matter of promotions to higher positions. Following on the appointment of W. H. de Bell, who was taken from the univer- sity and made principal of the Sprin: Valley School, to the exclusion of tries educators in the department. Casserly says that the sooner the teachers under- stand that the board is after new blood the better. This will be small comfort to the teachers, who feel that faithful service should be rewarded with promo- tion. % r —_————— “Fake” Footrace Trick.

WEBSTER FILES ~ ANNUAL REPORT He Recommends the Re- vision of the Course of Study. peiee ok Reiterates Former Request for a Lower Class Enrollment. s Superintendent of Schools Webster filed his annual report on the public schools with the Board of Education yesterday. The report contains valuable information regarding the census, population and school attendance. Webster again rec- ommends a lower classification, a more rigid enforcement of the compulsory edu- cation law and the establishment of pa- rental schools. He notes the interesting fact which was given publicity in this paper recently that the public schools are | losing pupils.” In the fiscal year just end- | ed the average daily attendance has been | 34,771, a loss of 233 from the year previous. | The attendance at private schools has in- | creased from 9311 last year to 10,856 this year. The attendance at high schools has | gropped from 1429 to 125l The report ays: The compulsory education law should be amended so as to regulate the employment of minors and to fine those unlawfully employing | them; to provide for the appointment of at- tendance or truant officers, and the arrest and punishment of truants, and for the establish- | ment and_maintenance of truant or parental | schools. The experience of the deputy super- | intendents of this city and of myself em- phatically demonstrates the necessity for truant | or parental schools. Enforcement of Compulsory Law. In the city of San Francisco the enforcement of any compulsory educational law at this time is- {mpossible. Over 19,000 children were reported by the census marshals as having at- tended no school during the year terminating May 1, 1900. Were 10 per cent of this number forced to attend the public schools there would be no accommodations for them. unless the Board of Education should rent buildings and rooms and engage forty additional teachers. This_would tax the appropriation allowed by the Board of Supervisors for the support of schools during the fiscal year. To enforce then a compulsory educational law in the city and county of San Francisco would necessitate the construction of buildings capable of contain- ing at least 6000 additional children, besides the establishment of truant and parental schools. The public school system of San Francisce comprises four high schools, nineteen grammar schools (including one cosmopolitan, the Adams), fifty-one primary (including one cos- mopolitan, the Humboldt, and one school for Chinese children) and eight evening schools or a total of thirty-two schocls. The Pol: technic-High School, no,less than the Lowell, is in need of a new building. Additionai | rooms should be built to the Hamilton, Haw- | thorne, Hearst, Richmond, Golden Gate, Crocker and Dudley Stone school houses. The Sunnyside, Noe Valley. Jackson and Bergerot schools occupy rented buildings and premises, which are inadequate and not suited for the accommodation of pupils. Eighteen rooms are rented for the accommodation of children attending other schools, many of them | fily suited for school use. The Burnett School is housed in a miserable wooden building. The sanitary condition is deplorable { TUrges Erection of New Schools. The Superintendent recommends in his | report that the Board of Education en- deavor to secure from the Board of Su-| pervisors in the next annual municipal | ‘budget appropriations as follows: Sixty-five thousand dollars for a new build- ing for the Burnett School: 55,000 for a new building for the Washington School: $20,000 for a new building for the Bergerot School; $35,000 for a new building and lot for the Noe Valley School; $20,000 for a new building and lot for the Monroe School. Ampler__accommodations Dudley Stone, Jackson and Laguna Honda Schools are recommended; also modern eco- nomical stoves in place of those now in use. Recommendations are made that there be a rearrangement of desks where necessary to secure a better light and seating; that a plen- tiful supply of modern maps be purchased at a cost of about<$4000; that the course of study be revised in accordance with amendments to State law and the experience of the past year, and that such a classification of pupils be made that first and eighth grade classes shall not have an enrollment in excess of forty pupils and other classes shall contain not more than fifty pupils enrolled.
