No definite con- clusion was arrived at by the board with the exception of an agreement to increase the salaries of deputy super- intendents of schools from $150 to $200 | per month. The Board of Supervisors | has been requested to provide the necessary funds for the increase and if allowed, the salaries will be fixed at the higher figure. The proposed raise will affect Depu- | ties Macurda, Suzzalo, Heaton and Shelley. An attempt was made during | Superintendent Webster's administra- | tion to have the salaries increased, but as Webster and the Phelan Board of Education were not on good terms at the time the attempt was unsuccess- ful The board ruled\against the proposed schedule of salaries for the principals of primary schools as submitted by Commissioner of Public Works Wood- ward. Woodward sent a communica- tion in which he states that he is well Jaware that any schedule founded arbi- | trarlly upon the number of classes is not entirely satisfactory. He belleves, however, that it is fairer and less ob- jectionable to increase the salaries by $3 for each additional class than to have the pay the same for different sized schogls. TUnder Woodward's | schedule the salaries of six principals will remain unchanged; those of thirty- one will be iincreased and ten will be slightly reduced. | The board objected to the plan be- cause it reduced some salaries and it desires to announce that its policy will | be not to reduce salarfes, but, if the funds are adequate, to increase them. The proposition of raising the salar- | fes of all teachers earning less than $60 per month to $60 was tnoroughly dis- cussed, but no action was taken, it being agreed by the board to meet | again to-morrow afternoon, when the hedule will be adopted for the salary sc! next fiscal year. Assistant Secretary Berliner figured that it would require | $23,000 to make the minimum salary $60, but that the board had some doubt as to the correctness of the amount. He was instructed to verify his figures. $1f the board finds that it has not enough money to fix the minimum at $60, a compromise of $556 will be adopt- ed and six years allowed to reach the | maximum of $83, instead of ten years | as at present. | The board opened bids for supplies !for the Public School Department. | The bids will bt tabulated with a view to ascertaining the lowest bidder, to whom the contract will then be | aw arded. i e ————— | HEALUTH COMMISSIONERS | WILL ABATE NUISANCES Use of Street Sweepings in Golden | Gate Park Made the Subject of Discussion. The members of the Public Health Commission of California met yester- day morning in the rooms of the United States Marine Hospital Ser- vice on Merchant street. Matters per- taining to the general health were dis- | cussed and acted upon, principal among them béing the use of street sweepings in Golden Gate Park as a fertilizer. Health Officer D. F. Ragan | called attention to the fact that this character of debris, instead of being incinerated, was carted to the city's | playground and that he had found | cases of diphtheria as a result of its | baccilll. Secretary Louls King of the Merchants’ Association said that the sweepings might be used on the sand | dunes for the purpose of making } young trees grow and a sort of a com- | promise was effected by an order compelling the garbage men to wet the refuse down so that it will not blow about. | The careless handling of garbage on the streets by scavengers and the prac- tice of shaking carpets out of doors were pronounced nfilsances and Sec- retary Louis Levy was directed to ad- dress a communication to the Board of Health on both matters. Dr. Regensburger made a motion that the commission recommend to the Board of Health that the street sweeping nuisance be abated and that each member of the commission be em- powered to wear a bgdge that could be used in effecting arrests of violators of health ordinances. A resolution was adopted which will prevent the removal of rags, sacks, ropes and second-hand clothing from the Chinese quarter, and Drs. Blue, Ward and Regensburger were ap- pointed a committee on ways and means. The meeting was attended by Drs. Stimpson, Cumming, Ramus, Currie, Trotter, Weeks and Blue of the Fed- eral service; Drs. Regenburger, Foster, O'Nell, Woolsey, Dickie and Matthew- son of the State service; Drs. Ragan, Hassler, Hughes, Stinson and Harvey of the municipal Board of Health; Dr. Taylor, chief surgeon of the North Shore Rallroad Company and Secre- tary King of the Merchants' Associa- tion. On Sunday next the members of the commission will visit the quar- antine station at Angel Island and in- spect the sterllizers used for disinfect- ing clothing and material brought by incoming ships. —_——— McHatton Wins Contest.

Adolph Boas’ Promising| Career Is Brought to a Close. Death has closed the promising ca- | reer of Adolph Boas. The young man passed away at his late residence, 1293 | O’Farrell street, yesterday morning at | an early hour, surrounded by members of his family. The news of his demise will be received with regret by his many friends. He was a member of the | Olympic Club and was well known in social circles of this city. The deceased was one of the first to offer his services to his country when | the President called for volunteers for | the Philippine war. He was enrolled as a member of Company G of the First California Regiment and went to the Philippines. - Although in many en- | gagements he escaped without injury, | but, unfortunately, fell a victim to the tropical climate. On his return to his native city he contracted a severe cold, and this developed into tuberculosis, the primary cause of death. Deceased was a son of Judah Boas, the capitalist. He was given every care and comfort, and despite this fact he could not withstand the dread dls-‘ ease. The, funeral will be held at 2| o'clock to-@ay. The body will be cre- mated at Odd Fellows’ Cemetery. Ser- vices will be conducled by Rabbis Voorsanger and Nieto. — e 4 TEXTS ON WHICH PASTORS WILL PREACH THIS DAY Pastors of the Churches of Different Denominations Will Talk on Sub- jects of Vital Importance.

WEDS WITHOUT ASKING FATHER Court Aids Albert Gompertz in His Plan to Get Rid of His Daughter-in-Law ANNULS THE MARRIAGE Declares Invalid the Ties That United Plaintiff’s Son to Mary L. Kammerer ——— ‘When Herman F. Gompertzs, who was 18 years old last February, married pretty Mary L. Kammerer he omitted to secure his father’'s permission. As the law does not recognize a minor's contract unless sealed by the | consent of a guardian, the tie that bound the youthful couple had in it a Albert Gompertz, Herman's did not approve of the mar- He filed suit for its annulment father, riage. | on the grounds that his son was under !age and had married yithout his | father’s consent. Judge Kerrigan yes- terday annulled the marriage. Sarah R. Doble (nee Cruver) Is suing Arthur L. Dobfe for divorce on the ground of neglect. She says that for | the last six years he has not provided for her, though well able to do so. The Dobles were married at Chicago Christ- mas day, 1895. Delfina Ivankovich is seeking a di- vorce from Stivan Ivankovich, to whom she was married in this city in Octo- ber, 1894. She says he gave her a se- vere beating a short time ago. Intemperance is charged in the di- vorce action brought by Alice Little against W. T. Little. The cross-complaint of Joseph N. Kowalsky to the suit for divorce | brought against him by Ettie Kowal- sky was answered yesterday by Mrs. | Kowalsky. She specifically denies every charge he makes. John T. Plath has answered the sult for divorce of Anna M. Plath by a gen- eral denial of her charges of cruelty. He not only says that he was never anything but a good, kind, true, loving husband, but says that were it not for the interference of his wife's father and mother there never would have been any serious trouble. He says that after having had a little row with his wife he prevailed upon her to forgive him, and she promised not only to do so, but to return to him. She would have done so, says Plath, but that her parents would not give their consent. ——— e The Prince of Savoy Inaugurated the New Italian-American Bank Building.

W. Postlethwaite Files Affidavit in In an affidavit filed yesterday by H. ‘W. Postlethwaite, president of the Holmes Lime Company, he gives no- tice that on May 20, in Judge Hunt's court he will ask for an injunction re- straining Thomas Mannix, a contrac- tor, from violating his agreement to purchase all his lime from Postle- thwaite's firm and the Henry Cowell Lime and Cement Company. The af- fidavit sets up that Judge Hunt erred in sustaining Mannix's demurrer to the original suit for an injunction brought by the Henry Cowell Lime and Cement Company and that the plaintiff js now entitled to an injunc- tion on its amended complaint con- taining the facts, the absence of which from the original complaint brought about Judge Hunt's decision. The af- fidavit also contains the assertion that there never existed at any time a con- spiracy on the part of the Holmes Lime and Cement Company and the Henry Cowell Limé and Cement _Com- pany and the Contracting Plasterers’ Association to corner the lime trade or to form a trust. Postlethwaite de- nies that he ever threatened to drive Mannix out of business for violating the agreement to purchase lime from any but the plaintiff corporation. Music at the Park.
