By order of GEO. W. WALTS, Commandant. Official: CHAS. E. GRAHAM, Adjutant, Pathetic significance attaches to memo- rial observasces in a national cemetery or in a cemetery at a soldlers’ home. At the latter the flowers are strewn on the graves by the aged survivors of battle and siege—by men who fully comprehend that the yéars will not be many before they join stheir fbrmer comrades on “fame’s eternal camping ground.” (] @ =ik A New Time Card ‘Will go into effect on the Coast Division of the Southern Pacific Monday, June 1, on and after which the theater train will leave San Francisco at 11:30 p. m., fifteen minutes earlier than now, arriving at Palo Alto 12:30 a. m., and stopping at principal way stations.

Additional Amount of $25,000. The Board of Supervisors met yesterday as a committee of the whole and adopted the various items comprising the next municipal tax budget as recommended by the Finance Committee. The committee has made appropriations aggregating 36,075,500, requiring a tax levy of $1.07632 en every $100, on an estimated assessment Toll of $415,000,000, in addition to $1,610,000 received from other sources. Assessor Dodge informed the board that the assessment roll would aggregate at least $425,000,000 and allowing $5,000,000 for delinquency gave ths board another $50,000 to apportion. Half of this was given to the Police Department, and the rest and $§20,000 more, based on the hope that the assesment roll will reach $ 000,000, was also set aside for specific pur- poses. A feeble protest was registered against the ralsing of a number of sala- ries, but all those recommended by the committee were ratified. Chairman Bran- denstein announced that the Supervisors might express their desires for any in- creases or decreases in the appropriations as reported upon by the Finance Commit- tee. Nearly every supervisor had some increase to champion. ‘Wilson submitted a list of agreed upon increases in salarles whica he said aggre- gated $21,760, and he was of the opinion that the city departments could be run as well as formerly without raising the pay of employes. Wilson also thought that the item of $59,100 for increasing the force of employes should be reduced. Expert Williams stated that the iIn- creases asked for by the Supervisors ag- gregated $81,540, and there was an unap- portioned surplus of only $65,000, on a ba- sis’ of an assessment of $415,000,000, which the Finance Committee had recommended be used for new streets and sewers. Comte moved that the latter amount be segregated for specific improvements, but D’Ancona thought the matter should be left to the discretion of the Board of Works and this was agreed upon. Assessor Dodge then informed the com- mittee that the assessment roll would amount to at least $425,000,000 and might reach $427,000,000. Assuming a delinquency of $5,000,000, this would give the board an additional $50,000 or $70,000 to spend, Dodge sald. The board then took up the suggestions of the members and agreed to appropriate $15,000 to bulld the new pesthouse. When Boxton's motion to®give the Police De- partment $25,000 more to pay for twenty mounted policemen in the outlying dis- tricts was put D'Ancona opposed it and held that $35,000 of the surplus should go for streets and sewers. His motion on ( the subject, however, was lost. The board | then voted $25,000 to the Police Depart- ment. Braunhart's motion that $5000 be | allowed for repairs to the City Hall, and D’Ancona’s. motion that $6000 be allowed for an emergency hospital in the Potrero and $5000 additional for the City and County Hospital, were carried. These al- lowances aggregated $56,000, and Curtis, figuring on a surplus of $70,000, moved that $14,000 be given to the City and County Hospital, but after allowing the Sheriff $3000 more for subsistence of pris- oners the hospital was given $5000 more, or $10,000 in all. The library was given $1050, leaving $4950 unapportioned. Braunhart’s motion that all increases of salaries be provided out of any ad®i- tional surplus provoked laughter, but re- ceived no second. The Grand Jury was | allowed $1500 for expenses instead of | $1000, and $4450 was set aside for the | Grand Army encampment.

The recelpts of the Licensa Office for May were $27,96 50, an increase of $498 over the same month of last year.

Giants he might slay but this microscopic or- ganism defied’ hid, and in many & cam- ign more men were destroyed by camp iseases than by the enemy’s sword.

Ten thousand school children crowded the Chutes yesterday afternoon and had a delightful time. The dimes and nickels they spent for popcorn, peanuts and in patronizing the various concessions added a large sum to the fund now being raised | for the preservation of the California landmarks. It was a lollday in the schools and every youngster was allowed | to enter the grounds without cost. Mothers | and fathers went along to look after the | little ones and they entered Into the spirit of the day with as much enjoyment | as “their offsprings. The elephants were in gr.at good humor and feasted throughout the-day on the sweets thrown to them by the children. The monkeys were a source of delight to the iittle ones. The school children shot the chutes, rode on the scenic rallroad | and the minuature railroad, saw how fat they were in the convex mirrors and had a royal good time. They held sway all afternoon. They romped at will and no | accidents marred their pleasure. In the Chutes’ theater 200 children, un- der the leadership of Miss Estelle Carpen- ter, teacher of singing, rendered patriotic | songs. They sang In unison and their fresh young voices blended beautifully. The little singers were dressed in red, white and blue costumes and carried flags and vari-colored handkerchiefs, which | they waved in accompaniment of their | songs. Their singing was a feature of the afternoon’s programme. School Director Roncoviert led the Chutes’ orchestra and got lots of melody of the musicians. In the evening | Senator Joseph Knowland delivered a lecture on the landmarks and .presented some splendid stereopticon visews of the historic places which are being preserved for future generations. The Knlic.er- bocker Quartet rendered popular songs, | the only “Billy” Hynes wld a number of | new stories and sang some funny paro- | w.es; little Cecil Cowles played a numbe: of selections on the plano and the regular | Chutes’ programme was given in its en-| tirety. On the grounds were a number of booths | presided over by the fair members of the Landmark League, California Club, Na. tive Daughters, Women's Press Assocla- Pioneer Women, Ploneer Daugh ters and the State Floral Society. A great many fancy articles were sold, as were also delicacies of all kinds. A large amount of money was taken in by the booths. Open air concerts were given by the bands from the Columbia Park Boys" Club and the Hebrew Orphan Asylum. Members of the School Department were out in force to look after their young charges. Superintendent of Schools Langdon was greatly pleased at the out- pouring of pupils and teachers. He is a firm believer in the preservation the landmarks of California and is givifig his best energies toward that end. The following committee was'in charge of the good work: President, Senator Jo- seph R. Knowlands of Alameda; secre- tary, Mrs. Laura Bride Powers; treasurer, J. J. Lerman; Miss Eliza D. Keith, pre: dent of the Native Daughters; H. R. Noble, president of the Native Sons; Frank H. Powers and W. M. Abbott, s et it oy DEATH ENDS CAREER OF A WELL-KNOWN ATTORNEY H.

The Board of Public Works has cecided to proceed at once under Judge Murasky's decision with the removal of all boot- black stands and stationary fruit wagons that encroach upon the public streets and sidewalks.

The Board of Education has fssued a pamphlet showing the plan for the elec- tion of nmew teachers. The plan requires applicants to take the competitive oral and written examinations on the prac- tice and theory of education to be held on June 15 next. The examinations of 1302 were taken by 201 candidates. Of these the first sixty were appointed on the sub- stitute list during the school year 1902-03. It is probable that not more than thirty or forty will be appointed from the new list during 1903-04. The pamphlet says in part: Tre object of thess examinations i mot to st applicants in grammar and primary stud- but to select the best of those already ificated as teachers. Composition, penman- ship and spelling, howsver, will be considered in the written examination. No applicant shall be privileged to taks the | examinations unless he or she bs the holder {of a valid teacher's certificate of a grads not than the mmar grade, ffering from tuberculosis or offen: ca- tarrh shall be appointed on the substitute list. All teachers before being elected on the sub- itute list shall pass a physical examination by a physician selected by the board.
