Homes are found for a great many and the bal- |Anf-e are kept at the directory and given a practical education. f The agricultural school is an exten- sion of the Youths' Directory and it is purposed to follow a course which the | experience of many years has proved the best. Father Crowley. believes that prevention is better than cure. The institution is not a reformatory. It simply takes in waifs and saves them by care and discipline and makes good citizens of them. It is expested that 150 boys will com- the agricultural school. These tads will not be forced to take up the pose study of practical farming. Only those who have a liking for outdoor life and who desire to learn the methods of the farmer will be taken to Rutherford. | The lads will be divided into two classes. V le one class is studying the theory of farming the other ciass will be out in the fields or in the dairy | doing practical work. The lads will be taught how to prepare the land and study the analysis of the soil; planting, | grafting and pruning of three; dairying and other things. The youngsters will enter the school at 14 and are expected to graduate in three years. Father Crowley has often noted the need of skiiled labor on the farm and | he is of the opinion that in a few years ing men who graduate from the school will be capable of taking charge of farms and helping to develop the d of this State. he school will be established for poor boys, but there is no objection to taking bhoys who can afford to pay for board and tuition, provided they be of | good character and willing to conform to the rules and regulations of the in- stitution. | —_— e | GIVES GRAPHIC ACCOUNT OF FRENCH REVOLUTION Professor H. Morse Stephens Lectures on Exciting Times in History of France. Professor H. Morse Stephens of the University of California gave his sixth lecture on “The History of the French Revolution” in the art room of the Mechanics' Pavilion last night. The attendance numbered more than 1500 and the thrilling word painting of the political career of Vergniaud, the orator of the Girondins, was highly appreciated. Professor Stephens devicted the { hours and days of the foreign war, | which began with the repulse of the French army, and told of the insubordi- nation and the utter disorganization of the army and the end of Lafayette's part in the revolution. Descriptively he explained the inv. sion of the Tuilleries, June 20, 179 when the overthrow of the monarchy was in preparation. The insurrection of August 10, when the royal family sought safety in the Assembly, was ! | one of the most vividly described in- cidents of the remarkable and “hys- | terical” period. | Professor Stephens pictured also the hours of the terrible massacres in the | prison, when priest and layman were ! | brutally butchered in the very sight | of those who could, had they so mind- ed, have rescued them from the bloody hands of the murderers. ~Marat, the Friend of the People,” will be the subject of Professor Steph- ens’ next lecture, which will take place January 13. e e 'YETT IS TO RETIRE FROM UNION |G | PACIFIC | Chief Clerk of Ticket Office Leaves the Company After Fifteen Years | of Service. | | inently identified for years.

Summary | jaction of this sort, he thinks, might tend to bring the entire issues to a| head'at once. in Mr. Spear’s view of the case the immediate result of revoking all the ' permits would be to prevent the whole- | . salers from doing any business on the State’s wharves, either as buyers or | sellers, They would, he says, be com- | pelled to. deal directly with the pro- | ducers when they were buying, and also be compelled to haul everything away from the wharves to make sales. If the dealers should show a desire to have the cases now in court heard as soon as possible the Harbor Commis- sicners would wait for a court decision | _before proceeding further. | 1 believe,” sald Mr. Spear yesterday, | “that the move that has been suggested | would tend to give an open-market for Francisco.

The law has no provision to regulate prices. “The Harbor Board is determined in We wish to have a flsu‘i-( sion from the court. We do not wish } to wait long for a hearing, not many days; perhaps we will wait a week. If there are applications for additional re- straining orders to hamper the Com- the permits.

He says also that the pres- ent situation is very unsatisfactory to the dealers, as the contention that the | Commissioners seek to sustain is that | they have power to follow the dealers to their stores and deprive them of per- place » off the State’s wharves. The wholesalers believe that the construc- | on the law by the Harbor | Commissioners is wrong and they are anxious to have the court decide, that they may understand their exact sta- tus and leatn what course to pursue. ————————— The Original Little Louisiana Com- pany of San Francisco.

Doyle said that a | draying firm had paid $600 for two | horses which the Fire Department | would not use. | Secretary McCarthy of the Fire Com- mission stated that eight horses had been purchased during 1903 under an | old contract from the Howard Estate Company for $175 each, or $125 less than Doyle's price. Eighteen horses were bought in April, 1902, from the Haggin estate for $165 each. ) McCarthy said that it was formerly the custom to send notifications to all horse dealers when purchases were con- | templated by the Fire Department, but | this had not been done when the horses | were beught from Doyle. | The committee postponed the inquiry until next Monday at 1:30 p. m. to hear from the superintendent of horses as to whether any efforts were made to gecure offers from other horse dealers.
