On the other hand, some of the teach- ers who did not even serve two weeks as regular teachers following their elections { o OWARD e e 4 ko have been either given positions or placed on the eligible list. Of the teachers elected on December 28, 1898, and dismissed on’ January 25, 1899, the following are now in the départment: Miss M. Coyle, Miss D. F. Moran, Mrs; M. Meil, Miss M. F.

Police Save John McAuliff From ths Heathens’ Vengeance. Chinese rioters attempted to murder Doorkeeper John MeAuliff at the Wash- ington-street Theater last night. The dis- turbers were highbinders who have been recently deprived of passes to the enter- tainments and who are deemed by the| police to be the most dangerous charac- ters in Chinatown. The trouble grew out of an assault made upon Ah Sin, a highbinder, early in the evening. While partly intoxicated, Sin tried to force his entrance into the play- house, in company with a number of his keeper. He was sent to the City Emer- gency Hospital, and while there a rumor was circulated that he had died. The highbinder tongs to which Sin belongs re- solved on vengeance, and had it not been for the of Sergeant Conboy's squad, they would | probabiy have accomplished their mur- uerous purpose. After Sin had been taken away in the police patrol wagon from the Central sta- don and the rumor of his death spread, a mob of angry Mongolians con- gregated about the theater. The infuri- ated heathens, after several moments of heated conversation, | the stairs, many of them armed with clubs and other weapons. When the crowd first | gathered, .word was sent to the’police, and Omcers Handley and Harrigan rushed | [ to the sceme. After a hard struggle, in | which they were obliged to use their | clubs without stint, the officers succeeded | in driving the rioters down the stairs again, The Mongolians, smarting under the | rebuke at the hands of the police, _lpre-{ pared to make a second attack. They | marshaled their forces together and again started up the stairs. | The two policemen | took a stand in front of the doorkeeper | { and prepared to defend his life. At this | Jjuncture several other officers- arrived, and, after another desperate battle, drove the ‘crowd away. Ah Sin, the cause of the difficulty, after he had been treated at the hospital, was | taken to the Hall of Justice and locked up on a charge of drunkenness, —_— ACCEPTANCE OF MISSION | STREET IS RECOMMENDED | Board of Works Takes Preliminary Aition Toward Bituminizing the Thoroughfare. The Board of Works decided yesterday to recommend to the Board of Super- | visors the conditional acceptance of Mis- slon street, between Silver and Onon- | daga avenues, Commissioner Casey voted against this acceptance, and pro- posed in lieu thereof a resolution accept- ing Mission street from Crescent avenue to the county line, which was defeated. A. B, Maguire and other representa- tives of the Mission Street Improvement Club urged the acceptance of the street, which will make possible the work of re- paving the street with bitumen. The city | appropriated $15,000 for the purpose and the property owners subscribed $7500. The secretary was directed to advertise | for proposals for repaving Van Ness ave- nue, between Pine and Bush streets, and for alterations and additions to the Hearst Grammar School. ilk, and was severely heaten by the door- | timely appearance of Officers | Handley and Harrigan and the membersi started to rush up | Children’s Hats An Interesting Sale.
