ADV] LRTISEH.E!\ TS. Nothing Wrong With Coal... Don’t think because we con- tinually talk gas for fuel that coal is not all right. It's the way you use it; we yse it, too. We take all the dirt, ashes and dust out of it and serve it to you clean, when and where you want it and without trouble to you. When you use coal you are running a small gas plant of your own, and you know small plants kind are ex- pensive to run. If you don't, ask your husband. of any Of coal when you use gas and all the heat of oil as well. We send the balance to the ashman and up the chimney the same as you do, only it doesn’t cost us as much. That’'s why gas saves money when used for fuel. Then, too, you burn 80 per cent air with the ‘gas; the air costs you nothing — that’s pretty cheap. Now, get busy and buy a gas range from Tee Gas Co.

McClish, president of the Uni~ before the Methodist Ministers’ Asso-| ciation, his subject being “Our Educa- | tional Problems.” i Dr. McClish said that (hn first pr(vb-- lem was that of the name “University, and while he conceded that they sub- jected lhelnsel\es to criticism for tak- ing the name “University” when they did “college work™ he did not deem it essentlal to insist upon a change to that of “College” while the term in general usage was not clearly differen- tiated. He said that out of the 480 msmu-‘ tions of higher learning mentioned in the report of the Commissioner of| 55 passed under the name | ! and the University of the | Pacific was among that number. WOULD NOT DISCOURA The second problem was the reduc- tion of the university to an academy or | junior college. It did not seem wise to | Dr. McClish to take a step that might | result in permanent degradation of the | status of the university, and in view | of the fact that such a step would dis- | courage many of the friends and alum- | ni_of the institution. Dr. McClish said that the third prob- lem was that of entering into such an| adjustment with the State Im\erslty, under new regulations of the State Board of Education as would secure for the graduates of the University | of the Pacific certification to teach in| the high schools of the State. This| important step Dr. McClish thought | might be accomplished in the not re-| mote future. The discussion that followed showed\ | a marked interest both in the “small| college” and the University of the Pa-| cific. Preparations for the big convention | of the Christian church in August| next were in progress yesterday morn- | ing and evening. The Rev. Walter M. | White, D. D., the Rev, P. C. Macfar- | lane, the Rev. Mr. Boyer, the Rev. Frank S. Ford and others took an en- thusiastic part in the discussions. —————————— I | | { REAL ESTATE BOARD MAKES SUGGESTIONS ABOUT LAWS | Directors Forward Resolutions Legislators at Sacramento Con- cerning Two Measures. , The directors of the San Francisco | Real Estate Board met vesterday and’ | adopted resolutions to be forwarded | to the Legislature at Sacramento, urg- |ing the passage of a bill now before | the Legislature relating to actions for | obtaining, possession of real property | upon default in payment of rent. A preamble and resolution were also adopted by the directors which are in part as follows: Whereas, The San Francisco Real Bstate Board has deliberated upon the provisions of the so-called Stanton oral contract bill and deems that the enactment of sald bill as a statute would be prejudiclal to the interests of real estate dealers and of real property | owners and would be the constant source of much expense, annoyance and litigation; and ‘Whereas, The law as it now stands, requir- ing contracts authorizing the purchase or sale of real estate for compensation or commission 1o be in Writing and subscribed by the party to be charged, or by his agent, has proved sat- | istactory to both real estate dealers and to real property owners in the past; therefore be it Resolved, That the Legisiature of the State of California, in Senate and Assembly assem- bled, be and they are hereby earnestly pe- titioned to take such acticn as may result in the defeat of the so-calied Stanton oral con- tract bl ! President Howell presided at the ' meeting of the directors. All the , members of the board were present. ————— to | SATCHEL THIEF IN THE TOILS.—Frank Prigmit, alias Frank Frick, was booked at the City Prison yesterday on & charge of burglary and a charge of petty larceny.

Thompson, arrived early | yesterday morning after an unexemtul’ | passage from Panama and way ports. In each of the Central American re-l publics at which the San Jose called | the white bird of peace is still sweetly | ooing. Everybody is too busy gath-i ring and marketing an extra big cof-' fee crop, say the San Jose's officers, to indulge in any revolutionary pas- time. When the last bean has been shlpped away. and the coffee . kings have closed their accounts for the sea- | son there will come a period of idle-| ness during which hard-earned dollars!| will disappear with little effort. When the majority of 1he people in the rev-' { olution zone are “‘broke” the time will, be ripe for an insurrection, but just| where the first outbreak will be, trav- elers from the South have different opinions. As far as they could judge by what they saw and heard at San Jose the officers say internal affairs in Guate- mala seem to be more settled now than they have appeared for some | time. The Guatemalan officials are! worrying more, they say, about trou- ble from the outside, inspired by the holders of Guatemalan securities. Several weeks ago the Guatemalan Consul here confided to Customs Col- lector Stratton his suspicions that con- traband of war was being shipped from this harbor to ajd the revolu- tionists in that country. Mr. Stratton laid the matter before the Department of Commerce and Labor at Washing- ton and yesterday came a letter from Secretary Hay assuring the Collector that the State Department was ready at all times to act upon tangible infor- mation. The San Jose’s passengers were near- 1y all from New York, most of those in the cabin being tourists, who pre- ferred ocean travel to the dust and| discomfort of the overland journey. The liner brought 1287 tons of cargo |and treasure valued at $10,800. Her passengers included the following: S. L. Moore, Mrs. S. L. Moore, -Miss H. Armstrong, F. Barrios, S. Wolf, James T. Rook, Mrs. James T. Rook, Mrs. G. L. Spen- cer, H. Tomme, Dr. H. K. Beatty, Mrs. H. K. Beatty, A. C. Sprout, C. C. Stevens, H. B. Hitchings, P. Raal, F. Denssen, J. Driscoll, W. Bork, A. Mendelsohn, D. Baakensieck, James Donchoe, J. Teneyck, M. Maunier, Mr. Galletti, G. Carayani, Joseph Felder, P. Kel- | ley, Max Karp, F. L. M. Smith, H. Camus, | H'Reeder, M. Jurgens, J. Cuthbertson. Danger to Coasting Vessels. The steamer Eureka, Captain Andrew Hall, ed to the Merchants' Exchange that on Feb- { ruary 24, about twenty miles northwest of Point Reyes she passed a derelict, which ap- peared to be a plledriver. According to the officers of the Eureka the derelict was large and heavily built and a menace to navigation. Trave] along this coast is very heavy and in the shipping community surprise was ex- pressed yesterday that no steps had been taken by the authorities to find and destroy the der- elict reported three days ago by the Eureka. On the Atlantle coast the revenue cutter service finds in work of this kind the principal excuse for its longer existence. It is different here, and yesterday there were many com- ments on the fact that while the derelict pile- | driver {s wandering along In the track of crowded passenger steamers the revenue cut- ter Hugh McCulloch, officered and manned, and supposed to be ready for sea at short no- tice, is swinging idly among the yachts at Sausalito, R Springs a Leak at Sea. The schooner Orient, Captain Saunders, which left here February 21 for Grays Har- bor, returned yesterday on account of a leak. | The leak was discovered on Friday when the schooner was 160 miles to the westward of this port. When she arrived yesterday the water was coming in through her seams at the rate of four inches an hour. e A The Overdue List. The vessels on the overdue list are quoted for reinsurance as follows: Stork, 80 per cent; Francols and Brodick Bay, 5 per cent; Black- braes, 15 per cent; Skidby, 75 per cent, and steal ship Tacoma, 30 per cent. o 5 R ‘Water Front Notes, The Spreckels tug Dauntless left vesterday for Monterey with the oil barge Monterey in tow. The whaling bark Andrew Hicks arrived yes- terday off Honolulu. The Standard Oil barge No. 93, which ar- rived Sunday from the Atlantic in tow of the oll steamer Atlas, was towed by theé tug De- fiance to Nava Junction to discharge. Frank M. Kramer, first assistant engineer which arrived Sunday from Hilo, died suddenly early yes- terday morning at his residence in this city, 76 Belcher street. All hope of saving the schooner Onward, which went ashore the other day at the mouth of the Coquille River, has been abandoned. According to last reports the vessel is rapldly breaking up.

Frederick Bensted, the English remittance man, who was arrested a /month ago for annoying the members of Grace Episcopal Church, was ar- rested again yesterday on complaint of Frank P. Le Count for the same of- fcnse. Bensted seems to have an in- sane infatuation for Miss Susie Le Count and has written several letters to her, denouncing Rev. David Evans, of Grace Church, Miss Le Count's fiance. He was warned when arrested the first time to keep away from Grac: Church and not to correspond with any of its members. Despite his prom- ises, Frank P. Le Count declares, he has renewed the offenses. Bensted is held at the detention ward of the Cen- tral Emergency Hospital and will be examined by the Insanity Commission- | ers. ———— $2.00 buys a card index drawer. 500 record cards and 24 guide cards.

He is supposed by the Chinese Bureau at this port to have kept himself in- formed during his absence of all that happens politically in his birthplace i and to acquaint himself with the geog- jraphy, topography, geology and | meteorology of every part of the United States that he may have lived | |in or passed through. Shouid he be | found lacking in any of these 1m-> portant particulars admission to the country is denied him. Yee Sang May recently went through | this experience and has obtained from | | the United States District Court a writ | 0 habeas corpus. The records of the Chinese Bureau show that Yee is 25 | Years old: that he was born in (ht-[ city and taken by his parents to El| Paso, Tex., when he was 2 years old, | thence to China two years later. On | kis return two months ago he was-in-, terrogated by United States Immigrant Commissioner Hart North as follows: “Did you ever hear of Kearney?” 1 “No,” was the reply. This answer caused a black mark to be entered against his name. ‘“‘Are there any mountains near EI Paso?” “I don” t know.” “Is it a fertile country or a moun- tatnous country?” “I don’t know."” “How old were you when you first | | saw your father and mother?” “I saw them as soon as I was able | to see at all.” ““How old was your mother when | she married your father?” “I don’t know.” For such incomprehensible ignor- ance Commissioner Nerth denied him | a landing. —_—e——————— BAEHR TAKES NO ACTION.—Auditor Baehr took no action yesterday relative to the Mayor's threat to remove him unless he repay to the city the amounts of audited demands for Grand Jury expenses under penalty of re- moval.
