Election Frauds in Alms- house Precinct Are Referred To. The Grand Jury filed Into pmmnsl Judge Cook’s court yesterday morning and | T. Carey Friedlander, the foreman, read | the final report, after which the jurors: | | | | were discharged. The report was signed by sixteen jurors, and Judge Cook said it was one of the best and most concise documents of the kind ever submitted by a Grand Jury. 1 i i | The report stated that since August 3, | when the jury was impaneled, ‘twenty- five meetings had been held and ten in- vestigations, resulting in only one indict- ment being returned, the cases being, as a rule, of the most frivolous kind. spoke of the necessity of pure milk being | supplied to the citizens, and the jury took | pleasure in reporting that the provisions | of the ordinances relating to milk were | being vigorously enforced. The repon.} | went on to say: ‘We consider that the introduction of any foreign or »ofsonous substance in any quan- | ity or for any purpose into milk sold or glven i away for any public or private use should be | deemed a crime, and recommend that a law be enacted whereby any party found guilty of such practices should be punished by fine or imprisonment, or both. We recomngend that the plumbingand sanitary | appliances at the Almshouse be put in a fitting | condition, as the present condition is unsani tary. We recommend that the police judiciary should c perate inore strenuously with the Police Department in enforcing the ordinances ! regarding lotteries and the sale of tickets for same. We recommend that the number of police- men on the regular force he increased to more nearly approximate to their proportion to the wvided for in tfle | mounted police~ men be increesed and a new police station be provided in the Western Addition, same. to owned by the city. FIRE BOAT IS ESSENTIAL. We recommend the construction of new buildings, forges and shops in proper prop tions to ‘meet the needs of the Fire Depart- ment and also the consolidation of corporation Yards 1 and 2 under one cstablishment and ore | management at some central portion of the cily. Efficiency in fighting fire is of the ut mcst Importance, but the safest safeguard against fire is best obtained by the fire com panies being able mest quickly to reach the scene of a fire at its incipiency. Ivery means toward this end should be employed by our de- partment, and we recommend, first, that key- less fire alarm boxes be instalied, to be located as the chief may desire; second, that a fire box be located at each whart along the water | front. In case of the fire on the steamer Mo- | doc it was necessary to go two or three blocks | from the wharf where the fire was before an alarm could be turned in. We recommend that a fire boat equipped | with the most modern appliances be provided as early. as possible for the protection of the | water front, shipping in the harbor and allied | interests. We Indorse the recommendations of | the Board of ¥ire Commissioners that new edl- fices be erected at an early date for engine companies 5, 8, 9 and 24 2nd truck company 5, suitable to 'the requirements of a first-class fire_department. We recommend that provision be made to enable the Recorder to properly protect, in ac cordance with ths State law, building contracts filed with him, as there is now no means to pre- vent the extraction and alteration of these im- portant documents. ‘ We recommend that during unofficfal hours chman or pollceman be appointed to ®uard and remain continuously in the rer’s office and around the vaults for protection against possible intrusion. UNFIT SCHOOL ROOMS. In one of the best appointed school butldings where 1060 puplls are registered We found no provision for the proper care of a*teacher or pupil who might be so unfortunate as to be taken suddenly il while in the schoolroom, and ‘we would suggest that ery school bullding be provided with at least comfortable cot for the proper care of a sick or disabled teacher or pupil. From the lack of suitabie school bufldings, the Board of Education is compelled 10 rent Hfty-eight outside rooms, many of them being absolutely unfit for such a purpose, some from unsanitary conditions—a menace to health and a disgrace to a city of the wealth and im- portance of San Francisco. Noe Valley Pri- mary School has no school building, several classes being in rented rooms from one to four blocks apart and every room Inadequate and unfit for the purnose. Most large cities in the | Union have mod school buildings, with i first-class sanitary regulations, approved fire | apphiances and fire escapes. We recommend that steps be taken by the proper authorities to_immediately better the abuses existing. _We recommend that the department ofelec- tricity be given better facilities for promptly Teporting upon matters laid before them and- for more promptly issuing permits when re- quired. The testimony recently given regarding al- leged election frauds In precinct 13, district 39, known as the Almshouse precinct, was suffl cient to make it appear reasonably certain that there were irresularities in the election held November 4 in that precinct. Such acts are contrary to the spirit and letter of the law governing elections and aiso contrary to good government and public welfare. We regret that the evidence offered was not sufficlent tv warrant the finding of an indictment that would result in a conviction. Lettered in Gold.

The Californian player returns to her native stage an ac- complished artist, not yet at her full ma- turity, perhaps, but with every evidence that she will very soon reach the highest | levels. What she has done in the way of polishing and finishing her work since her last visit here is truly wonderful. Her | exuberant temperament has beed reined in, trained, subjected to a control that Is only short of being absolute, and the re- straint serves only to intensify the al- | ways distinguishing magnetic quality of | her work. Miss O'Neil's Magda is a per- | formance that no one interested in mag- nificent acting can afford to miss. The actress is well supported. McKee | Rankin gives his fine portrait of the | Puritan father, E. J. Ratcliffe’s Hefter- | dingt 1s an impersonation of noble and | convineing kind, Fred Butler is happy in the part of Von Keller and L. R. Stock- | well does well by the role of Von Klebs. The rest of the cast is all acceptable, and | the play and the performance are dis- @ | tinctly ones to be seen. 4 e The verdict iy unanimous that Haver- | 1y’s Minstrels, now packing the Califor- @ | nia. despite the inclemency of the weath- er, gives the best show of its .kind that has lately visited this city. The jokes are modern and scrumptious, the singing is above the average and the ollo is the strongest of any minstrel show. On Sunday night comes the roaring farce “Rudolph and Adolph,” in which the famous German comedians Dan and Charles A. Mason have been starring for the: last two seasons. These clever peo- ple were here last year and scored a tre- mendous hit as the two funny Dutchmen. They are supported this season by a very strong company, including a large chorus. e At the new Theater Republic the Har- rington Reynolds Company is making a strong impression in the beautiful pro- @ | duction of “Moths” that is there being given. The company is naturally seen to much better advantage than in the play of last week, and the principal members have all scored heavily, notably Harring- ton Reynolds, Edmund Breese, James A. Keane and Helen MacGregor. @ | On Monday night the delightful comedy- | drama *“Alabama,” by Augustus Thomas, will be the offering for the third week of the Republic’s history. The Thomas play will serve to show vet more plainly the quality of the Republic people. ‘Captain Jinks of the Horse Marines,” the new comedy of Clyde Fitch that was presented here for the first time on Mon- day evening last, is pleasing many at the Columbia Theater. Its odditles of cos- tume, the quaint garb of the early sev- enties, with its bustle and flounce and | trill, the old-fashioned masculine ward- | robe and queer old furniture, all make |a setting that in itself is distinctly at- tractive. The story concerns a visit of a prima donna of the day to New York, where, in supposed prima donna fashion, she at once begins to fascinate the re- porters that greet her arrival at the dock. There are also to meet her and to greet her in artless Fitch fashion three gay musketeers—no Horse Marines, of whom Captain Jinks is one. Mme Trentoni Is the lady’s name, and in double-quick time—before even the custom-house offi- clals have gone through her trunks—she falls in love with the gay captain. This supposed Patti also good naturedly re- ceives a ‘elegation from a woman's anti- something léague, changes her hats and wraps and does various other unusual things on a draughty dock in a decollete gown. Less fantasy, good Mr. Fitch, thaa farce! And the other acts are in key. Miss Kennedy, who has the role of Mme. | Trentont, shows vivacity and earnestness, and seems to have pleased. Mr. Babcock iz too,good for his role of Captain Jinks, | and E. J. Mack, with a pleasing bit as Professor Belliarti, Harry Barton as a newsboy and Francis Yale all do well. An attraction of considerable note fol- lows in David Warfleld in “The Auc- ‘llonee 5 & e ‘The Tivoli will present “The Idol's Eye™ next week, with a sterling cast and with the beautiful stage settings used in the last production of this greatest of all ccmic operas. This opera has never been equaled in popularity at this house, hav- ing scored the longest runs of any piece given in this city. Hartman as Abel Conn, Frances Graham as the priestess, Sertha Davis as Maraquita, Webb as “Hoot Mon,” Cunningham as Don Pablo Tabasco and Annie Myers as Damayanti will again rejoice Tivoli goers. The Tivoll folks are making strenuous | efforts to get the new holiday piece, “Jack | and the Beanstalk,” in shape for an early production. There will be the latest wrinkles in the song, dance, ballet and spectacular line, the management alming to outdo anything of the kind previously done here. “In Mizzoura" continues to pack the Al- cazar at every performance, and Ernest Hastings is flatteringly received as the Sheriff. The new leading man s ex- cellently supported by the clever com- pzny at the Alcazar. On Monday even- ing net Augustus Thomas' comedy- | érama “The Burglar,” which derives its Inspiration from Frances Hodgson Bur- nett’s delightful story, will be elaborate- lylput on. Mr. Hastings will play the title role. o N 1T ““The * Geezer,” at Fischer's Theater, won instant favor with the crowds that attended the first week's performances. Everything is applauded from the over- tures to the important numbers. The busi- ness is all new. The burlesque is clean, pretty and artistic. The scenery, cos- tumes and stage effects have never been excelled locally. “The Geezer” is des- tined for a long run. . 4- e l.lquke’n;n;’:lohel. the Swedish ventrilo- Guist, an life-size walking talk- ing figures; Fred Leslie's pe.l?rl:mlnl dogs and Joe and Sadie Britton, wonder- tul colored dancers, are pleasing large avdlences at every performance at the Orpheum. Helene Carleton, n and the Heras fam- ily of men and women acrobats are in their last appearances. Next week come Freres de Lucca, French acro- and Beatrice Moreland in her so- ciety monologue. & . . Halder, a capital juggler; Evelyn Orms- by, Bryant Murphy and other high-class specialty people are giving an exgellent show at the Chutes this week. To-night, after the regular performance, the amateurs will appear, concluding their portion of the eptertainment with a new Saturday night. . series of living pictures. ' The electric founfain will give a beautiful display ’ e Christmas presents, such as water col-
