W, Simpson to-day a demurrer to the petition for an alternate | writ of mandamus obtained by the Board of Trade to compel the City Trustees to submit the matter of the disposition of the two local railroad franchises to the voters of Alameda under the referendum ordinance. There is a possibility that if | the demurrer is argued to-morrow the temporary injunction against the City Trustees may be dissolved before October the time set for reviewing the petition. 1t petition upon which the alternative writ | was issued does not contain sufficient cause for action and states that the City Trustees have done nothing either offi- cially or unofficially which would indicate that the municipal legislators intended to ignore the request of 600 citizaps that the question of the franchises be submitted to a popular vote. Henry Rosenth rd of Trade, president of the has called a meeting of at organization, to be held to-morrow ght in room No. 11 in the hurch block, for the ostensible purpose K « of discussing the existing situation with respect to the franchises.

Predicts Great Demand in Near Future for Experts in Woodcraft. Sioote il Berkeley Office San Francisco Call. 2148 Center street, Sept. 10. Gifford Pinchot of the Forestry Bureau ORAGGED ALONG BY Hl3 aTIRAUP Charles Pugh Injured in Displaying His Horse- manship. Saddle Turns and Rider Dan- gles by Foot After Gal- loping Animal. Oakland Office 8an Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, Sept. 10. Deputy County Clerk Charles Pugh is of the United States Department of Agri- culture advocates a school of forestry | for California in which men can be trained and gent out into the forests, commissioned to save the trees from the wanton destruction of the woodmen's ax and the fires and to make trees grow where none grew before. Mr. Pinchot expressed his opinion this evening at the University of California, where hLe delivered an address in the Students’ Observatory, on *“A Proposed | Forest School for Calffornia.” In all the | wide west, he said, there is no regulariy | organized school of forestry, and where there are such immense numbers of acres of woods and such wealthy _interests there should be something of that kind.| California is the best place’ for such a‘ school, which should be for the recep- tion of graduates only, who would be re- quired to undergo at least a two-year raduate course, he said. In his ad- Mr. Pinchot showed why there is such a demand for a school and for foresters, saying in part: There is going to be a large demand for for- esters for the forest reserves west of the Mis- ber is being cons | also going to be a demand from the States for foresters. Applications are being made all the time at the Bureau or Forestry In Wash- or assistants. The large lumbermen, are working constantly in the direction of too, forest preservation and they are engaging for- esters for their lands. STANDING LUMBER. The amount of standing lumber west of the fississippi 1= about 1,000,000,000,000 feet. Of b Junt there is in California 185,000,000, | 600 feet; in Washington, 200,000,000,000 feet, and in Oregon %0,000,000' feet, making a total for the coast of 6680,000,000,000 feet. There care for these large areas of wooded lands. Not only this, but there exists a demand for foresters who may know how to replant de- | nuded lands and to provide for the extension of the forest where trees do Dot NOW Erow. It is possible by euch forestration to increase the water supply. and where water is of such value as It Is in this State undoubtedly the work should be done, | Still another field of activity is the Phillp- pine Islands, where the ~Government owns 000,000 of timbered land. The Govern- as been trylng to get foresters to go to the islands, bat the demand so far exceeds the supply that it is a difficult thing to get men to go. And since American foresters are de- sired for the work, they must be tralned. Forestry is a profession for which a highly s lized training is required and the time s now come when the trained forester will be the most use. The forestry problem on the Pacific Coast cannot be solved without tratned foresters and they must be Americans who can deal with an American problem in an Ameri- 1 way, The need for foresters is perhaps mount to the need for forest protection and that need can only be furnished by men trained in a regularly established school that in my opinion should be established somewhere on the | Pacific Coast and in California. PROFESSION OF FORESTRY. Mr. Pinchot dellvered an address in the Students’ Observatory this afternoon on “The Study of Forestry as a Profession Yor Young Men.” In this lecture he di- lated upon the more obvious aspects of forestry as a means of livelihood. The value of forestry as a profession, he said, depends on the opportunities which it offers in a half dozen ways for the forester to come into touch with the nation's greatest activities. In order to be successful in forestry one must not udy it for itself alone, but in cohnec- tion with other things. The student must many of the facts affecting the com- | mercial side of the case. Then, after| | knowing all these things he must be con. tent with a reasonable salary, which wil not be near as large an income as that | of a successful civil engineer or law- yer. | The intending forester must have a pe- | culiar temperament, a sympathy with the ‘forest and tree. One of the first qualifi- cations Is observation and a facility for | diganosing the case of the tree accurate- ly. The forester must have a thorough | knowledge of forestry measurements and | every forest problem in mathematics. He | must know lumbering, for lumbering is even more closely related to forestry than | botany. The essential problem of it all| is the growing and harvesting of the | crops, to know what timber is on the| ground, how fast it is growing, what are its uses, how it is logged. It is a profession that requires robust | health, for there is nothing more trying | | and intellectually wearing than forestry. There is some risk, too, which is to be measured in proportion to the newness lot I(he industry and the number of men n it. —_———— GEN.

The latest researches of science indicate that we are on the threshold of marvel- ous discoveries in the realm of nature's finer forces. That there is an invisible world about us, from which come all our coarser substances, is an hypothesis that has beeén pretty well established. Dr. Meclvor-Tyndall, in his psychic demon- strations at Steinway Hall, works out this sclentific theory in a practical, in- structive and entertaining way. There is nothing of the magical about Dr. Me- Ivor-Tyndall's experiments. They but prove the hypothesis lately accepted by science, of the power of thought as an electrical force. At Steinway Hall, Sun- day evening, Dr. McIvor-Tyndall will demonstrate this marvelous invisible force by experiments in psychic phenom- ena. The subject of the lecture, preced- ing the experiments, will be “‘Divorce: Its Relation to Psychology.” Reserved seat sale opens this morning at ‘“That Man Pitts,” 1008 Market street.

Wilson, Coun- ty Superintendent of Schools. The peti- tioner was properly elected to his office but a contest was made by T. E. Me- Carthy, a rival candidate.

He attempted to pick his hat from the ground without dismounting and the girth being slack the saddle turned and he was thrown to the ground, one foot being en- tangled in the stirrup. Pugh 3s an expert rider and had done this cowboy trick many times. He had been making a tour of Contra Costa and Alameda counties with Mr. and Mrs. way home between Pleasanton and Dub- lin when a puff of wind blew off Pugh's hat. Turning his horse he galloped back after it. As the horseman neared the spot where the hat lay he threw himselt far over to one side in order to reach down, and fell off. The horse continued on its way for some distance, but finally stopped with Pugh still dangling at the stirrup, bruised and bleeding. His friends were driving and they took him into their vehicle and drove him into Pleasan- ton, where medical aid was secured. Lat- er he was removed to his home on Twen- ty-fourth street in this city. | PERSONAL MENTION. Dr. J. Loomis D. Monson of Philadel- phia is at the Palace.

Frank Neil Returns From the South Anxious to Fight Jordan. e The sporting writers of the Eastern pa- pers are a unit on the proposition that] Jack Monroe has not a ghost of a chance, with Jeffries. Monroe is also, apparently, aware of that fact and intends to make all the money possible out of his_next ring engagement, He wants to meet Jeffries in this city, where he knows the returns will be great- | er than in Los Angeles. This is one fight | the men of-this city who enjoy boxing would not support. No boxing promoter would have the temerity to try it on the| public. Here is an Eastern writer's esti- | mate of Monroe and it is in keeping with | the others: 1 saw Monroe tried out after he ‘got the decision’ over the champion. It was In Woods' gymnasium with Tom - Jabber,” a e ot peat " Monros ‘worked | I that was in him. He did not know that any one was taking notes.

He might ‘pair off with Sharkey, but even the sallor would whip hi Frank Neil returned from Los Angeles last night. He is anxlous to take Young Corbett’s place in the proposed match with Ben Jordan, the English ampion. | Corbett has won considerable mohey bet- ting on the races and will not talk fight for the present. Neil's pluck is to be admired, as he would be giving away from seven to nine pounds to Jordan. Neil al- lowed De Coursey seven pounds. This is an object-lesson to the fighters who haggle over a pound. The Los Angeles club wants Nell to fight Feltz or Reagan next month, J. E. Cahill, who is managing George Fuller, a clever lightweight, is trying hard to secure a match for his man. He offers to fight Billy Otts at 138 pounds at 6 o'clock, but the latter wants to weigh | |in at 142 pounds. Fuller also has his| eyes on the winner of the Angeli»Cordell‘ match. He has had a number of suc- cessful fights. He has boxed with Britt, | Fitzgerald and Gans in training and they have all complimented him on his clever- ness. Sandy Ferguson, who is to fight Jack | Johnson at Colma next month, is due| here early next week. He will be takeu in hand by Tim McGrath, who will train him for the fight at the Beach Tavern. Billy Wood of Los Angeles offers to stop Harry Foley and another middle- weight on the same night. Martin Canole is anxious to come to this coast and fight any man weighing ! from 128 to 133 pounds.

Then he jumped to his feet only | to be knocked down again by a terrible | | i i | left to the jaw and a right to the stom- ach.

Arguments of Attorneys to Be Commenced on Next Thursday. —— On Thursday morning next arguments will be heard in the White case, which has been on for hearing before Judge Troutt during the past two weeks. Both sideM\have put in all their evidence and nothing remains but the addresses of the attorneys in the case. Up to the time the attorneys for the de- fense brought forth the receipt signed by Mrs. Jennie White for $120, the plain- tift’s case had a roseate hue. This re- ceipt is alleged to have been signed by Mrs. White in the presence of Richard H. Morrison, an executor of the estate of Jonathan Lloyd White, deceased. The plaintift was startled, as were her coun- sel, when the attorneys for the defense | sprung the document and Mrs. White was loud in her denial of having ever seen the paper. In order to prove the genuineness of the signature Theodore F. Kytka, the hand- writing expert, was put on the stand yes- terday morning and gave it as his opin- ion that the signatures were written by Mrs. White. He based his opinion on ex- emplars furnished him by counsel and on | his sjxteen years' experience. Kytka had large photographs of the signatures and with these he pointed out the simi- larity in the handwriting. The attorneys for Mrs. White deemed it best not to cross-examine the handwrit- ing expert. Richard H. Morrison, the executor of the estate who witnessed the signing of the paper, was called by the plaintiff for further cross-examination. Judge Aitken attempted to shake the witness on his knowledge of New York, but failed. He also tried to break down Morrison's tes- timony in regard to the signing of the document, but did not meet with great success. Morrison proved a shrewd wit- ness and stuck to his original story. Charles G. Gebhardt, another executor of the estate, was called to the stand by the defense and stated that he had, in company with other executors and of- ficials of the Safe Deposit opened the lock-box found a receipt for been signed by the $6 alleged to have process server who | \ handed Mrs. Jennie White the summons | and subpena in the divorce case, filed by deceased a few years before his death. Mrs. Charlotte McLaughlin of 1954 Bu- | chanan street and Mrs. Emma G. Hart, living at 1315 Filbert street, were called by the plaintiff to testify that the repu- | tation of Joseph L. White, a brother of | the deceased, was bad. This testimony was given in order to rebut that given by White before the commissioner in New York, when he testified that ome evening he was out riding with Mrs. Jen- nie White and she told him that she no longer was his sister-in-law, as Liloyd | ‘White had secured a divorce from her. Mrs. Jennie White took the stand in her own behalf and admitted that her signature was affixed to the receipt for | $1250, but swore she never knew the con- tents of the paper. She says the paper was signed in the rooms of the Safe De- posit vaults and that it was very dark in there. She further testified that her husband handed her a folded paper and said: ‘‘Here, Jenn sign this,” and in obedience to his request she signed the paper. She swore positively that she never went out sleigh riding with Joseph L. White in New York and never told him that she knew of the divorce. She fur- ther testified that she never read the summons or complaint in the divorce pro- ceedings to White's mother. Both sides rested their case and the | court set next Thursday morning for ar- gument of the case. At the conclusion | of the arguments the case of Jennie White against the executors of the es- | tate of Jonathan Lloyd White will come up. She alleges in her complaint that she loaned her husband the sum of $16,300 | | with which as a basis he accumulated his | large fortune. She now demands the re- | turn of this sum with interest. ———————————— LAST SURVIVOR OF FIRST JEWISH CONGREGATION | Isaac M. Nathan, Who Founded Syn- agogue of Beth Israel, Dies at San Rafa Isaac M.

He was elected one of the trustees for the first term and had always taken an active | interest in the affairs of the synagogue. He was well known in the mercantile world, but for the last five years had been seldom seen on this side of the bay. His health broke down and five years ago his doctor ordered him to San Rafael, where he resided, more or less of an in- valid, until his death. He was a bache- Jor. His only surviving relatives are a sister, Mrs. Sarah Goldwater of this city, and a nephew, Marcus Tash of the firm . of Baur Brothers & Co. ——————————— Contradicts a Policeman. William Smith, a bricklayer, living on ‘Washington street, appeared before Po- lice Judge Cabaniss yesterday on a charge of having lottery tickets in his possession. Policeman Robl of the China- town squad testifled that he saw Smith come out of a lottery place at Clax and Dupont streets and when Robl app: h- ed him he threw a ticket away which was produced in court. Smith denied solemnly that he ever was in a lottery place in his life or ever bought a lottery ticket. He said he was standing at Clay and Dupont streets waiting for a car when the officer arrestéed him. The tick- et produced had the day, month and year stamped upon it, which was never heard of in connection with Chinese tickets, and the Judge dismissed the case. Smith’'s attorney intimated that the matter would be taken before the Police Commission- ers. ———————— More Chinese Frauds. Seventeen Chinese laborers just return- ing from the Alaska fisheries were arrest- ed by the United States Marshal yester- ! day on warrants sworn to by United States Attorney Marshal B. Woodworth on a charge of using fraudulent Chi- nese certificates. Two of the papers were section 6 students’ certificates obtained in China by the holders by means of fraud and misrepresentation. The remainder were genuine Certificates of residence and had been made fraudulent by the substi- tution of the photographs of the holders for those of the original and rightful own- ers. If convicted and sent to jail, all the prisoners will be deported to China, at the termination of their sentences, and if acquitted they will be deported for being illegally in the country, = { Company, | of the deceased and | | | | FRESHMEN HEAR AT JACK MONROE| ~ MONEY REGEIPT| A WARNING WORD President Jordan Stanfcrd Counsels Collegians. of Women Students Incur Re- buke for Not Paying Their Dues. e ——— Special Dispatch to The Call. STANFORD IVERSITY, Sept. 10.— Assembly Hall was crowded to overflow- ing this morning by the students and faculty assembled to Nsten to President Jordan's address to the freshmen class. This was the first general assembly cf the college year and the hall was made to echo with the familiar songs and yells. | Previous to the address by the president, Instructor Putnam of the English de- partment announced that Chafles Froh- man, under the direction of, Ben Grect, would present the Shakespearean play, | “Twelfth Night,” on the night of Septem- ber 21 and “Everyman” the following night. The productions will be under the auspices of the English Club. President Jordan in giving his annual address to the freshmen spoke in part as follows: You know what I am going to say—the up- per classmen have told you and they are to help t0 enforce the lesson. They will tell you that the university i part of life, that its | methods are those of life—no statutes set up for you to break, but when you go wrong you come into collision with the universe. That ‘lh& few ruk exist in the nature of things | that | men who break them are not wanted here, but are “‘escorted o the edge of the cam- pus_and dropped off." This is not because drunkenness, rowdylsm or destruction of prop- erty is forbidden by the faculty, but because drunkards, rowdies, vandals and idlers are not worth educating, or, at any rate, not worth education so choice as we try to fuenish here. We do not forbid visiting saloons, but those who do this will very soon find thelr work neg- lected and a little pink card will remind them that Stanford is only a reminiscence. We do not go out of our way to forbid hazing, but you know that we regagl men who use phy- sical force in their tricks on boys as cowards and sneaks. We do not require you to attend vour classes, but those who negiect them are | marked for speedy return to the bosoms of their families. The freshman class of this year has been sifted more closely than any Sther I know of here or anywhere else. Dr. Jordan then referred to the babit of some students In failing to support student body enterprises and to pay their annual assessments to the treasurer of the Associated Students and eriticized this action, which is particularly preva- | lent among the women students. He said: z A college would not be worth much if it did not have its student activities such as athletics, dramatics and literary enterprises, and these must be supported by the students. About nime girls to one man pass by the treasurer without paying their dollar. Women have too long heen admitted free to the lce cream parlors to think it necessary to pay for the support of these legitimate college ac- | tivities. Their action In this respect may be | responsible to a large degree for the adverse criticism of coeducation, We have in America a kind of college man who is able to understand life as life. To this type the Stanford man belongs. It was the dream of the founders that this univer- sity should ‘exist for such men—men of ad- vanced enlightenment and accurate training. men for leadership in action and leadership in thought. This ideal is beginning to unfold itself, The Stanford man hi something that other men may not have—effectiveness, broad- mindedness, self-restraint and the beginnings | of these, Stanford spirit, President Jordan read and strongly in- dorsed the following letter from a man prominently connected with atheletics at Stanford: In your talk on Thursday will you kindly suggest to nature’s perpetual freshmen of all classes that this season of the year is a good one in which to let the football men alome. The football men are weary of telling how they feel and how much they weigh: they are tired of answering questions in regard to the makeup of the team, and tired to death of fool advice. They are glad to give their leis- ure to feotball but outside of practice they would like to have some time to devote to themselves and to their work. Next to the man who offers to ‘‘treat” an athlets during the training season the worst enemy of Stan- ford athletics is the man who uses up the athlete’s time and nerves in useless talk. | i Fourteen Civil Engineers Wanted.
