The Warden was on hand to assist the | Directors in their work of acting on bids for supplies for the prison and it was ap- | | parent that he had been Informed that a few days of grace were to be allowed him ‘]'Hrell('rs Charles Felton, Robert Fitzgerald, James H. Wilkins and Don Ray were present when the board went into sesgion, Director Charles N. Felton | being tie only one absent. Director Fitz- gerald said that the inability of Director Felton to be present resulted in the post- ponement of consideration of the mat- ter of naming a successor to Aguirre, all | other members of the board having prom- ised Feiton that they would take no action in the matter unless he was present at the meeting. | After the reading of the minutes bids | for supplies were opened. Only two con- ! tracts of importance were awarded dur- ing the day, one being for 400,00 pounds | cents a pound, and the other for electric power with which to run the jutemill to the California Central Gas and Electric Com- | pany. | The matter of awarding contracts for | supplies had not been concluded when | the board adjourned at 3:30 p. m. and will the board at its | meeting at Folsom prison next Saturday. | N SUNDAY-SCHOOL METHODS ! DECLARED TO BE FAULTY University of Chicago Professors Say ‘, Modern Pedagogic Ideas Are | Greatly Needed. | CHICAGO, June 13.—That the majorily | of Sunday-schools of the present day are ve educationally, are lagging far | public schools in pedagogic | and are standing almost on the | level of the old district school, so far as | sclentific teach! is concerned, are the| charges made by Professor Ernst DeWitt Burton and Professor Shaller Mathews. | These statements are mad a volume | just hed from the University of Chi- “Principles and Ideals for | the ay ol he book is the re- sult of years of study and experience on | the part of both the authors in Sunday- | school work. | The Sunday-school, it is asserted, is es- | ally an educational institution, not a | for direct exhortation to certain place { lines of action. | | Faulty methods of teaching and illogi- al selection of the subjects taught are lamed for the decline in interest and final | dropping out of pupils as they grow be- yond the years of childhood. ! Professor Burton and Professor Mathews | advocate making the Sunday-school in | many respects exactly like a public grad- | ed school, where the children of the dif- | ferent grades are taught different sub. jects, according to their capacity. —— ? “MIDDLE CLASSES ARE | THE BEST CITIZENE” | New York Divine Says the Very Rich Do Not Help Civic Conditions. CHICAGO, June 13.—“The great people do not make good citizens. They | don't help our civic pride or our civic | conditions. In New York we have the | extremes of society—the worst of the im- | migrants and the over-rich people. The middle classes are the best citizens In these words the Rev. Dr. Rainsford, | rector of St. George's Church, New York. | gave his views of soclal conditions last night to members of the Bureau of Charl- ties at the annual meeting in the Ken- wood Evangelical Church. ““We make a great mistake,” continued DT Rainsford, “in the distribution of nuri ministers and our churches. We send | the weak ministers to the places where | even the strongest would have a hard | time—the parishes of the poor. We ought | to have the good preachers where life is | crushed: the fine church and the good | fc where the poor have Iittle of | 10 see. FREBFEE. TR | Mullins’ Decision Reversed. DENVER, June 13.—The Court of Ap- | peals to-day reversed the decision of | Judge Mullins of the District Court to the | effect that the City Council had authority to canvass the vote cast at the recent | election of a charter convention and de- | cided that the canvass must be made by ! County Clerk Aichel. The non-partisan candidates, who received a majority of | the votes, have already organized the | convéntion and are proceeding with the | work of drafting a charter, although they | have not vet received their certificates of election, the canvass having been delayed by the injunction against the County Clerk granted by Judge Mullins. —_——— Mare Island Channel Widening. VALLEJO, June 13.—Civil Engineer Rosseau, U. . N., is at work on plans for the -improvement of Mare Isiand | channel on the Vallejo side with a view | of getting to work July 1.

This will, it is claim- | , guarantee a self-scouring channel. ————— Sixteen Strikers Fined. CHICAGO, June 13.—Sixteen strikers alleged to have violated an Injunction ob- tained by the Kellogg Switckboard and | Supply Company were to-day fined $10 each in Judge Holdom's court. “For a corporation to be compelled to contract with a union to have in its em- ploy only union men,” he sald, in his de- cision, “is a specles cf sglavery and un- lawful.” The case will be appealed. —_—— Arrested for Diamond Robbery. NEW YORK, June 13.—Eight thoutand dollars’ worth of diamonds are alleged to have been stolen from J. H. Taylor and wife at a small hotel here and under ar- rest are Alice Howard, who is employed in the hotel, and Norman H. Powell.

HIGH TITLES FOR TRADESMEN Cotton Trade the Making of Three Peers Now Liv- ing. If you want a baronetcy, or evenm & knlghthood, you will have one of the best an ornament of the House of Lords, join the woolen trade without waste of time, starting as a “comber,” if you like, says Answers. That business is one of the best roads to a title, and there are now two peerages, fancy yourself as belonging to the wool trade, and the best income, so far, is £180,000 a year. The average time for reaching a title of any kind in the wool trade is 42 years, or a peerage, 60 vears, and your chance of the latter is just one in 63,000. For the chance of a baronetcy, however, the odds are much less, about 30,000 to one, and a knighthood 20,000 to one. These are uncommonly short odds as trades go, and include everybody engaged in the wool trade, workpeople as well as masters. As a grocer or provision dealer you have less chance for a seat in the upper house, as far as present figures go, but ‘ou have a chance in 90,000 to secure a baronetcy, as there are two of them at present, but as little as 20,000 to one against your getting a kpighthood, of which there are nine whosé bearers are or were grocers. Another first-class road to titles is the. cotten trade, even better than the woolen, for it has produced three more peers now Jiving, but the number of applicants for the prizes is so much larger that the odds are longer, and you have only one chance in 182,000 to become the fourth cot- ton peer. N LIMIT FOR TRADESMEN. All three peerages are baronies, by the way, and there is no viscounty gained by trade alone. Then, there are five cot- ton baronetcies, all of them wealthy, of course; and the cotton broker’s chance of getting one awarded him is about one in 110,000 On top of these there are six knighthoods derived from cotton, the chance for which is about one in 91,000, The best cotton income runs to over £200,- 000, which is good enough to support any peerage, even a dukedom. Every worker in the cotton trade, young or old, poor or rich, is counted in these figures, and most of the ‘big successes have been made by those who rose from the wark- rooms, so the chances are equal for all— a lttle in favor of the workers if any- thing. The ironmongery and iron founding business is one of the best ladders to a title, being especlally rich in knighthoods and baronetcies; but there are two peer- ages as well. The chance of getting Il peerage in this trade, however, is 101,000 to 1; but there are about three baronet- cles, and your chance of getting a fourth is only 5,500 to 1. Knighthoods, on the other hand, are simply lying around loose in this trade; there are twelve of them already, and at the modest odds of 16,900 to 1 or thereabouts—counting in every man or boy engaged in the iron trade in any way—any ironworker can hope for a knighthood. LESSER HONORS EASIER. As for mayoralties of towns and minor distinctions to the extent of half the al- phabet after your name, the iron trade is like a fruitful vine. There is one unique knighthood belonging to this trade and that is that of Sir Willlam Balley, who added to ironworking the scheme of the Manchester ship canal and was knighted by Queen Victorfa on board the first ship passing through it. All in all, however, the brewing trade produces the largest number of big titles, though not so many knighthoods and small fry. There are four brewery peer- ages, two of them arising from ales and two mainly from stout. This gives odds of only about 6600 to 1 against the ac- quiring of a peerage by anybody who helps to produce beer or ‘“other malt liquors,” and there are gix baronetcies as weu, which give one chance in only 4400 to the beer producer of being included in Burke. Knighthoods are scarcer, there being only four of them, which gives the same odds as in the case of the peerages. It is worth noting how commercial the peerage is getting, or how noble com- merce is growing, as you please, consid- ering the storm of protest there was six- teen years ago, when the Burton peerage was created. The subsequent creations did not arouse any comment at all.—New York Commercial. Photographers Guess Time. The photographer was about to make the picture of a young woman lying in bed. “It is #o dark here,” he said, “that 1 guess I'll glve you about thirty see- onds,” and drawing out the slide and re- moving the cap, he began to count in a measured and mechanical tone: “One, two, three, four, five,” and so on. When the exposure was finished the sitter said: “You gave more than thirty seconds to that plate. You counted very slow—I'm sure it took you a full minute to count thirty.” The photographer handed his watch to the young woman. He said: “I'll count thirty again. Time me.” And he made the count exactly as before, and he was just twenty-nine seconds making it. “One second off—not so bad. Near my old record, in fact,” sald the photo- grapher. “Ten years ago, when I made more pictures than I do to-day, I could, by counting, make exposures up to five minutes without being more than one sec- ond off. Usually I'd be a second under, but, over or under, it was only by one second that I'd be out of the way. But,” he ended, “this gift is not remarkable. Nearly every one of us can guess spaces of time running from half a second to five or six minutes with what is, for all practical purposes,” perfect accuracy.”— Philadelphia Redord. ———— Lone Navigator Returns. GLOUCESTER, Mass., June 13.—Ludwig Eisenbaum, who left Boston three weeks ago in a small open dory to cross the At- lantic, has returned and given up the trip. He went 350 miles to the eastward, making the Gulf stream. There was no shelter en the boat and so much fog was encountered that Eisenbaum has been wet ever since he started. The result was that he became stiff with rheumatism and was afraid he could not navigate the boat. ————————— Templars’ Party.
