The report of the committee appointed last week was read and the constitution and by-laws drawn up by them were ac- cepted, after which nomininations were in order. Wiss Elsie Cole and Miss Marian Walsh were named for president, but | Miss Cole refused the nomination, on the plea that the near approach of her grad- uation would prevent her giving the nec- essary attention to the affairs of the as- sociation. Miss Walsh was then eleced Ly acclamation. The other officers elected were: Vice president, Miss Elsie Cole; recording sec- retary, Miss Ethel Johnson; corresponding secretary, Miss Ruth Salinger; assistant corresponding secretary, Miss Elizabeth Heald; chalrman of committee on im-7| provement, Miss Esto Dunbar; chairman Miss Florence Edwards; chairman of committee on ath- leties, Miss Cornelia Stratton; chairman of committee on parliamentary law, Miss Jean Booth.

Needed improvements about the building and the neatness and beautifying of the schoolrooms and grounds will receive the especial attention”| of the improvement committee and every effort will be made to arquse a schocl pride among the students. Principal Pond and the lady teachers, who were made honorary members of the association, are much pleased with the energy and enthusiasm displayed by the girls and predict that it will not be very long before as much honor and pleasure will follow upon an attendance at the High School as gow falls to the lot of the university students. The various officers elected are all rep- resentative girls of the school, with a strong following, and their selection has been highly commended by the faculty. Primarily the new organization will de- vote itself to developing a larger interest tn all of the school activities, notably those in which the pupils can by co-oper- | ation enhance the value of their associa- | ticn for mutual advancement. The girls aim by their organization to take a larg- er share in a stimulation of interest in the many events, soclal, scholastic, athletic, etc., that are a part of the school life. PAINTER HAS NARROW ESCAPE FROM DEATH Antona Toxeda, residing at 922 Jackson street and employed by the San Fran- cisco Gas and Electric Company as a paimter, is at the Waldeck Sanatorium | suffering from the effects of 3000 voits of electricity which passed through his body while he was plying his trade yesterday. Toxeda was painting poles at First ave- nue and Jackson street, when he slipped from one of the crosstrees. In his en- deavor to save himself he caught hold of a wire which yielded to his weight suffi- clently to draw his left arm on to a live electric wire carrying a current of 3000 volts. The current burned through his left wrist to the bone, cutting several tendons and just missing the principal artery. His fcot came in contact with another live wire, which burned through his shoe and caused a deep laceration of the foot. Toxeda was rescued from his perilous position by his fellow workmen and hur- ried to the Cefitral Emergency Hospital, where his injurles were treated, after which he was removed to the Waldeck sanatorium. ——————— Late Shipping Intelligence.

Bert Nelson, a driver for the A, B, C, D Special Delivery Company, told to Cap- tain of Detectives Martin last night strange story of a hold-up in which he claimed to have been relieved of about $50 belonging to the company. Nelson was out with his horse and wag- on about 7 o'clock last night. He had on the seat with him two small boys, David Worthsmith of 786A Harrison street and Eddle Resener of 246 Fifth street. Although he had no parcels for the loc: ity in which he was driving, Nelson drove down Webster street to Bay. So well was the robbery hoax carried onut that the two boys on the wagon were unaware that Nelson was a party to the fake hold-up. According to the story of Rosener, as the wagon reached the corner of Bay street it was approached by a man, who asked Nelson for a match, at the same time seizing the whip from its socket in thé wagon. Nelson jumped from his seat to the ground, and the horse started to go and had probably gone about a third of a block before it was stopped. Nelson came running up to the wagon and said he had been held up and robbed by the man who asked him for a match. He drove to Fillmore and Lombard streets, where the police were notified. The police became suspicious and Nel- son was taken before Captain of Detec- tives Martin, and after being subjected to a rigorous “sweating” process con- fessed that the whole thing was a huge bluff; that he was short of coin and took that means of making up the discrep- ancy. a Detective O'Dea was detailed on the case and went with Nelson, who agreed to show up his confederate in the hold- up and get the money of the deliver: company back. His confederate, who wa Patrick Kane of 917 Natoma street, was found at his home with $65 of the money in his possession. Nelson confessed that he had spent $15 of the $80 which he had collected yesterday afternoon for the com- pany in the payment of an old gebt The two men were placed on the deti- nue book and will be charged with grand larcenyy to-day. Kane is known fo the police a® an old offender. —————————— HAWAIIAN SUGAR PLANTERS EMPLOY KOREAN LABORERS New Hands Are Expected to Prove Much Mores Valuable Than the Cubans.
