W. McClymonds | on behalf of the Board of Education and Councilman A, H. Elliott on be- half of the city government. Both speakers forcefully presented the need of better school facilities for this eity, and appealed to the voters to carry the proposed bonds next Saturday. After the addresses resolutions were passed indorsing the bonds and the plans of the Board of Education. Superintend- ent McClymonds told of the conditions in some of the local schools, illustrating the great need of improvement. He | said in part: Our schdols are greatly overcrowded and many of the rooms in the district now eccu- pled for school purposes are not suifable places in which to house chiliren. We Bave. rooms in the basements of some of our buildings. We have rented rooms not fitted for school | purposes, and we have constructed in a very temporary manner many rooms to tide pver deficiencies, The importance of this proposed bond issue is such that all residents of the district_should be interested e: to go to the polls and vote. Councilman Elliott’s address was in part as follows: When the school bonds were first proposed it was intended to Incorporate them in the general bond issue, but when the proposed amount was added to the $5.000.0004for the purchase of & water suppy and $2,000,000 for eity improvements the total was found to be more than the city comid legally be bonded for, and it was necessary to make the school bonds a separate issue. Better schools are absolutely necessary. One school in Oakland, the capacity of which is 600, is now being used to accommodate more than 1300 children, The city government is taking all possible precautions to e theaters and public halls safe in case of fire, but just think what the consequence would be If fire should Dreak out i ORe of our overcrowded school- houses. i ISR RS ALAMEDA IS RFADY FOR BIG RALLY OF BOOSTERS Prominent Speakers Are Billed to Ad- ALAMEDA, April 20.—Boosters from all sections of Alameda County will attend the big promotion rally to be held under the management of the ‘West End Improvement Association in the Webster-street wigwam to- morrow night.

Harrles, special ex- pert for the city employed by Mayor Olney, filed a report to-day om the condition of the books and financial records in the various departments of the municipal government. Account- ant Harries notes a number of changes in method he thinks would improve the bookkeeping and simplify the accounts. The Auditor's work in closely collect- ing personal property faxes is favor- ably noted. Concerning the Tax Col- lector’s office Harries says: “The books and accounts of this de- partment are all that they should be, creditably correct, but it 1s more than can be said of the records dating back some years.” The cancellation of $22,273, delinquent. personal propel’ty taxes, the bulk of them having been involved in dead lMtigation with the Southern Pacific Cgmpany, was urged. The expert said the amount was not collectable and should no longer encumber the records. New systems of bookkeeping intro- duced into the Board of Public Works by Secretary W. B, Fawcett are par- tieularly observed by the expert, who adds: *“This {8 a great improvement, and praise is due the clerk of the Board of Works who devised the plan.” Harries recommends an increase in the deposit of $15 demanded from con- tractors as a guarantee for the proper renewal of streets and the cleaning up of debris around new buildings after work shall have been completed. A new method for handling the as- sessment rolls is recommended. The expert finds that there is a loss to the city in tax collections because of delay in the furnishing of the rolls by the County Assessor. He urges that a ecopy of the county rolls be made simulta- neously with the progress of work in the County Assessor's office. Changes in the manner of issuing re- quisitions for supplies are recom- mended. e ————— MAKE FIGHT AGAINST A WOMAN SECRETARY OAKLAND, April 20.—The Portu- guese colony was in evidence in the pelice court to-day when the trial of Maria T.

Raymond” to Write Once More to Her \EARCH FOR LOST- GIRL Unknown Writer Claims to Have Knowledge of Death of Miss Lillian Heald Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, April 20. Mrs. Sidney Blanchard, the sister of Miss Lillian Heald, who has been miss- ing for more than a week, Is deter- mined to discover the identity of the mysterious “Mrs. Raymond” if that person exists and has any regard for Ilhe feelings of an anxious relative. Miss Lillian Heald dropped out of sight Tuesday of last week and two days later a letter was received by Mrs. Blanchard signed “Mrs. William Raymond,” saying that the writer had seen the missing girl fall into the bay at the foot of B street and drown. The letter gave no address and was believed by the police and Mrs. Blanchard to have been the work of the mising girl herself. All efforts to find Mrs. William Raymond have been unavailing and the mystery veiling the letter is as deep as that surrounding the missing girl. But more than a week has passed and no trace of Miss Heald has been discovered, and to-day Mrs. Blanchard issued the following letter addressed to the unknown Mrs. Raymond in the hopes that she might learn something either of the writer or of the lost sister: Mrs. Wiliam Raymond: Whereas, your letter concerning my sister's disappearance i3 very unsatisfactory, and as in your excitement you were probably mistaken as to the place at which you say this happened, and, whem I sure you that no blame ean rest om you here s no way in which tsouble can an possibly come fo you because of this matter, [ beg and pray that you will come to me and tell me just how it happened and where, for I know it ecould not have been at B street, as thers was no water there at the time you say you saw her.

A memorial service in memory of the late William G. Badger is to be held Sunday, April 24, at 2 p. m., at Golden Gate Hall, 625 Sutter street, under the auspices of the Bunker Hill Association, St. Alban's Sunday- school and the Order of Golden Links. These organizations flourished and were widely known in this city during the period intervening between the years 1862 and 1890, the aggregate membership numbering in the theu- sands. The young people of that period are now middle-aged and on the shady side of life, many of them occupying positions of prominence and influence in the community. The founder of these organizations, William G. Badger, passed away March 14 last at the age of 32 years. A religious service was held at Grace Episecopal Church, but this did not seem to satisfy a host of friends for- merly identified with the above and other organizations. A cordial invitation to attend these services is extended to those that knew him best and loved him for his many virtues. ——— Rebekahs Will Play Whist.
