E. Birkhimer for the return of certain money held in trust. The suit is a friendly one. It is set forth that the. trustees _are ready and willing to make an account- ing. From the complaint it appears that Donahoe was a soldier and Lemon the commander of his regi- ment. Donahoe was addicted" t6 the use of intoxicating liquors, and for fear that he would lose or improperly spend his savings he turned over $400 or more to Beil. The money was de- posited by Bell in bank in trust for the private. Later Bell as trustee de- livered a power of attorney to Birk- himer to look after the money and the accumulated interest.

Officers ey i IS RENDERED R L AL District Attorney Allen Sets at Rest Quesfion as to Who Shall Do the Work a——— Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1016 Broadway, Sept. 6. The county officers must handle the funds raised by the recent Oakland bond election, according to a decision handed down by District Attorney Allen to-day in answer to a query from County Auditor Bacon as to whether he or the City Auditor must do the work of computing the tax. The elec- tion was held under what is known as the district plan and in the present in- stance a small piece of territory outside of the city limits was included for bonding nurposes and it thus throws the work of handling the coin and do- ing the work on the county officers, while the City Board of Education spends the money. In his answer to the Auditor's letter Allen says: OPINION In answer to question one, will eay that the money is to be deposited with the County Treasurer to the credit of 4he bullding fund of the Oak in answe tax uditor. In answer the County tax In answer to question four, will say that the money should be deposited in the county treasury By the recent election the city of Oakland voted to raise $960,000 for the purpose of building new schools and generally improving the entire school system.

Valencia was arrested last night on Kearny street, near Mor- tcn, and booked at the Clty Prison for grand larceny. Valencia was seen to pick the pocket of H. J. Hurst of 1647 Mission street of a watch and fob. Hurst felt in his pocket Imme- diately after the touch and then ralled for the police. “Valencia was peinted out and locked up by Policeman Pat O’Brien. Just before his arrest he threw the watch on the sidewalk, where it was afterward found. George Davis, George:Foster and Thomas Williams were arrested last night by Detective Bunner and placed on the detinue book on suspicion that they were pickpockets. They were captured at the corner of Haight and Stanyan streets. Davis was pointed fout to Bunner as a pickpocket from Los Angeles by Detective Davis of the same place. Thirty-five pickpocket re- ports were read off to the various watches last night.

' | !,, SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY LESLIE M, SHAW ADDRESSES THE STUDENTS AT BERKELEY. Says Getting On in the World Is Due to Work. BERKELEY, Sept. 6.—Leslie M Shaw, Secretary of the Treasury, knows how to tell a story. The Secre- tary’'s stogies are all good stories and there are many of them. But he does not debase them to the mere story teller’'s subterfuge to raise a laugh. His design is to illustrate the sterner side of-life and bring the point home to his auditors. This predilection for the story as a vehicle for illustration the Secretary generously indulged when he dddressed the student body of the University of California this afternoon in Harmon Gymnasium. That he carried humor as well as con- viction was evident from the number of times he paused to let the applause and laughter die out. The very first word Secretary Shaw said was the beginning of a story. It concerned his official capacity as a Cabinet officer; only it was on Grant's Attorneéy-Genéral. When the Secretary visited his native town he tried to get the sentiment of his old neighbors upon his rise to statesmanship, but his fame was of little consequence to the reign- bors. When he asked one of them how they took his promotion to the exalted office the lout replied: “Oh, they only laughed.” “Being a Cabinet officer Is a mighty important job,” said Secretary Shaw, “but it is not so important from close by.” Then he went on to say that there is nothing in this life that has so much charm about it as student life. Thers are charms, of course, in the other phenomena of nature, there is charm in the growing of a babe and charm in the aging of the old, but there is a different kind of charm about student life. There is something inspiring about young men and women itting themselyes in one great community for the struggle with the world. A commotion in the rear of the gvm- nasium disturbed the Secretary and he paused long enough to loose anothsr of his witticisms. He said he wan:.ed everybody to be seated because he’d rather see 100 young people come. in than see fifty go out. “I used to teach a school myself,” he said, “but never an institution like this. I think I'd rather be at the head of a great university like this than anything else in the world. And that follows along the line that I have al- ready pointed out—that there is a cer- tain charm about student life that is indescribable. Under it you see young men and women, as I said before, get- ting ready to meet the world. So of you may go out and be failures and some be successes. But I _must say this, that it will not be for lack of knowledge, for, you get all you want here, but for the knowing or not know- ing how. He further said: T want to congratulate you who are getting this education. But you must remember that the umiversity is not evervthing. And right here ¥ want %0 say there is one difficulty with our schoois—they give too much information and not enough education. I mean by ti that there is too much pouring in and not enough drawing out. What is needed more is mental developmeni—the ability to think and deduct. 1 don't know whether it was Jeftries or Fitz. simmons—you gentlemen know more about that than 1 do—but one of them could hit so ! hard that he couid puncture a punching bag. Now, that was education. And If you would succeed you must educate your muscles—the muscles of your brain, so to speak. 1 always like to teli that story about Grant's education. Grant, you gnow, although an ed- ucated man, graduated at the foot of his claes That indicates that jthe educated fnan is not necessarily one of attainments. I would just as soon trust the man atithe foot, providing he has Wworked for what little success has come to him, as the man at the t The man who works hard finally succeeds. TI smart fellcw is too apt to stop when he has solved ‘one problem. Well, when Grant went to West Point cok him In charge and by way of i p exercise they bade him look at a hole in a wall for a long time. Grant obeyed and learned his first lesson in discipline. He Jearned that when he was told to do something he must continue at I until told to do some thing else. If you can set your mind working and keep 1t 'golng you will succeed.

There is a good deal of dis- satisfaction with the Board of Trus- tees’ action last night in fixing the rate gt this figure, but it is too late now to help it. Last year the rate was lowered from 30 to 25 cents and this aroused the School Directors almost to mandamus proceedings. This year the Directors hoped for something better, but they are disappointed again. The Trustees take the view that the other depart- ments must not suffer for the schools and that the only way the people -will be made to see the folly of a tax rate limited to 76 cents is through the non- | advancement of the: schools. The Trus- tees are also aware that there will be a bond election before the year is out, so that there may be no need for a 30- cent apportionment. Of the 25 cents, 16 cents will go to the High School and 9 cents to the grammar schools. The apportionment to the library fund is increased from 8 to 10 cents in anticipation of the additional cost that the removal to the Carnegie Library will entail. The apportionments to the other funds are as follows: General, 32 cents; street, 18 cents; sewer bond, 3 cents; school bond, 1892, 4 cents; elec- tric light bond, 3 cents; school bond, 1900, 4 cents. The total rate is $1—75 cents for the support of the schools and city and 25 cents for bond redemption. ALAMEDA, Sept. 6.—The Alameda Board of Education will ask the City Trustees to apprgpriate $26,000 for the public schools tHis year. s Dr. Henry M. Pond of the Trustees has placed himself on record as believing that the Board of Education is asking too much of the taxpayers and that there are too many salaries being paid. In cxplgfin- ing his attitude Dr. Pond said: 1 will take second place to no onme in loyal support of our public schools, but I am con- vinced from investigations that I have made that a great saving could be made in the School Department and that without Injury, to our educational institutions. This year the Board of Education asks for $14,000 more than iast year and the school census report shows that there are but three more children en- rolled. 1 do not think our teachers are being paid too.much, but I do believe too many sal- aries are pald. In Alameda I find that the average number ., while in San Francisco the class runs fro the instructor. I consider that 45 pupils tan be well handled by one teacher. Chief of Police John Conmrad has filed with the City Clerk an itemized esti- mate of the funds that he figures will be required to conduct his department another year. He asks for a total of $19,106, of which sum $18,820 is for sal- aries. Chief Conrad requests that the salaries of the thirteen patrolmen of the force be raised from $80 to $90 a month and the pay of the sergeant and the detective be increased from $%0 to $95. —_—— Death Was From Poison. OAKLAND, Sept. 6.—The death of Arthur Skipper, the 19-.year-old son of Captain J. J. Skipper, master of the schooner Valentia, was due to his drinking of carbolic acid, according to an autopsy held to-day at the Morgue. Saturday young Skipper was found dead ih a chair at his home, 911 Sixty- third street. It was at first supposed that nicotine poisoning caused the young man's death, as he was an in- veterate cigarette smoker. At the in- quest to-night Mrs. A. Stohl, Skip- per's aunt, who found the body, tes- tified she could give no reason why her nephew should commit suicide. The verdict of the Coroner’s jury was one of suicide.

As was expected, the Republicans were generally victo- rious, electing their entire ticket and maintaining controk of the Legislature by the usual large majority. The day was fine and the vote was normal for 2 Presidential year. The State officers elected are: Gov-| ernor. Charles J. Bell, Welden; Lieu- tenant Governor, Charles H. Stearns; Treasurer, John L. Bacon; Secretary of State, Frederick G. Fleetwood; Auditor of Accounts, Horace A. Graham. David J. Foster of Burlington was elected to Congress from the First Dis- trict, and Kittredge Haskins of Brat- tleboro from the Second District. The complexion of the Legislature is practi- cally unchanged. This indicates that Senator Redfield Proctor will be re- elected. | The campaign was hard fought by both the leading parties, the Democrats bending their efforts to a reduction of the Republican majority of 31,000 given to W. W. Stickney for Governor in 1900. Returns received at midnight indicate that the Republicans elected the head of their ticket by a plurality equal to, if not greater than, that returned for Stickney. | The r‘etun\! from 200 out of the 246 | cities and towns of the State give Bell | (R.), 38,860; Porter (D.), 12,892.

CCUSE UNCLE SAM OF BUNKO Men Who Drew Lands in the Rosebud. Reservation ~Lottery - Are Indignant A FARMS WORTH LITTLE Many Persons Decide Not to File Upon Their Claims After Looking at Them PSS < Spectal Dispatch to The Cail. OMAHA, Neb., Sept. 6.—The Govern- ment is now being accused of “bunko™ work in connection with the recent opening of the Rosebud Indian Reser- vation lands in South Dakota. A very- large number of those who drew prizes in the big lottery are greatly disap- pointed at what they got and have gone with their complaints to the Gen- eral Land Office in Washington. The Government has always been subjected to eriticism at the conclusion of these land lotteries, but in the pres- ent igstance the complaints seem to be louder and more numerous than ever before. Not half of the land, it is said by those who drew it, is worth more than the Government price and as a result it is estimated that not more than one half of the 2431 winners in the lottery will file upon the claims they drew. Of the first 300—sup winners of $5000 fortunes—ten per cent dropped out, refusing to take the land after looking it over.

BLACKFOOT, Idaho, Sept. 6.—The weary homeseekers, who for the past two weeks have been camping in front of the United States Land Office at Blackfoot, were to-day given an op- portunity to flle upon what is known as the Five Mile Limit lands, lying ad- Jacent to Pocatello. These lands are embraced in the Fort Hall Indian Res- ervation and are being disposed of at $2 50 per acre. The first to file upon land was S. M. Nixon of Pocatello, who took a 160- | acre tract upon which he had squatted | for two years. Nixon had been in line for two weeks and was almost ex- hausted by the strain and hardship. ———— MORE SOLDIERS FOR THE COAST WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.—In addition to making his report om the Depart- ment of California, wiiich has been published, General Arthur MacArthur also has made a report to the War De- partment for the Pacific division, which embraces the departments of California and the Columbia. General MacArthur says the concen- tration of political and economical in- terests in the Pacific Oecean has enor- | mously increased the military import- ance of that side of the continent and the continued rapid progress of events suggests the expediency of an early en- largement of military facilities to meet | the growing necessities of the Pacific Coast. He recommends that a new post for a full regiment of infantry be es- tablished in the vicinity of Los Angeles and a post for a full regiment of cav- alry at a suitable site in the Willamette Valley, in Oregon. This last recom- mendation is made with a view to a full regiment of cavalry being divided | between the Presidio and Ord barracks and another regiment of cavalry at the | post above mentioned, making two full cavalry regiments for the Pacific Coast. General MacArthur suggests that legislative authority be obtained to classify as mounted officers all captains of infantry and artillery not now in the mounted category. He says that the exigencies of modern figld work re- quire so much from a captain of in- fantry that he cannet possibly dis- charge his duties if he has to drag his body through the exhausting efforts of a long march, as after such a strain he is physically incapacitated for super- vising the attack formations in ex- tended order for a service company of 100 or more. Therefore, precisely at a moment when his professional skill is most needed he is least effective. This arrangement would mean a total increase in pay for the 520 officers af- tected of about $98,000. General MacArthur says that “great succcss attended the joint camp maneu- vers and fleld instruction instituted in the Department of the Columbia during the month of July.” He closes his report by saying that it is pleasant to report a considera) decrease in the number of deserti during the year just closed as com= pared with the preceding year. — .
