Ebersole, Ordered to Manila. Beautiful Miss Inez Elmer of Biloxi, Miss., has obeyed the call of Cupid and to- day will be wedded here to Assistant Sur- geon R. E. Ebersole, marine hospital ser- vice, at the home of Major H. W. Saw- telle, commander of the United States marine hospital service. The wedding was originally intended to place in June at the bride's home in Mississippi and elaborate arrange- had been made for the auspicious n, but the groom-elect suddenly received orders from Washington that he was to proceed on April'16 to Manila. He at once wired to his fiancee that the wed- ding in June would be impossible, and begged her to come to the coast and wed him here and go with him to the Philip- es. Otherwise the wedding must be de- ed until he had completed his assign- ment in the islands. She only had a few days in which to act The elaborate wedding ceremony, which was to have taken place under the mag- nolia trees on her father's lawn, the beau- tiful Southern bridesmaids in ‘their soft summer gowns, must all be dispensed with. Her own bridal robe, which had already been ordered in New York, faded away from her vision, and she decided to pass — all that by and bow to the dictates of her heart. Hasty preparations were made for the trip across the continent, and yesterday she reached San Francisco in company with her brother, F. W. Elmer Jr. The ceremony will be solemnized today at high noon at the home of Major Saw- telle. Only the people in the service and a few friends will be present. The beautiful home of Major Sawtelle has been superbly decorated for the occa- sion. The ceremony will take place in the main reception hall. The happy couple will stand beneath a bower of orange blossoms and white roses surmounted by a canopy of American flags held in place by long white satin ribbons. All about the apartments are vases filled to over- flowing with great masses of flowers and clusters of Easter lilies. The bride, a young woman of remark- able beauty, will be attired in a traveling gown of soft gray, with exquisite hat of old rose. Mrs. SBawtelle will wear a hand- some gown of light gray crepe de chine. The officers of the service will all be in full dress uniform. The ceremony of the Episcopal church will be read by the Rev. Dr. Clampett. Dr. and . Ebersole will make a s| trip to Eo:g)ern California, and wlllh;:-li next Monday on the Sheridan, POLICE FIND TRACE OF TWO MEN WANTED BY RELATIVES Joseph Fariss of North Carolina and S. C.

REOUCED FARE Street Railroad Companies| Oppose Ordinance Fixing "Three-Cent Rate on Cars BOARD’S POWER DENIED —_—— Supervisors’ Judiciary Com- mittee Hears Pleas and _ Reserves Its Deeision The Supervisors’ judiciary committee yesterday resumed consideration of the proposed ordinance fixing the fare to be charged passengers on street cars at three cents between the hours of 6 and 8 a. m. and 5 and 7 p. m. City Attorney Burke produced a de- cision by Justice Field from the one hundred and twenty-eighth I'nited States reports in a Georgia case, which he held established the right of mu- nicipalities to fix charges for trans- portation on railroads within the city limits and therefore to reduce the ex- isting charge. W. J. Deamer, attorney for the Cali- fornia-street road, contended that the decision cited by Burke affected a com- pany whose franchise had expired. Deamer said his company Had secured its franchise, which he regarded as a binding contract, under very onerous conditions, including the payment of a percentage of its gross receipts to the city and the use of specified material in the construction of the road. The attorney raised the point that a re- duction in the fare would so reduce the income of the company as to elim- inate the payment of dividends and probably result in the abolishing of transfer privileges on its lines. Assistant City Attorney Baggett ar- gued that the language of the fran- chises granting street railroad privi- leges that “the grantees shall charge not to exceed five cents for each fare” could not be construed as a renuncia- tion of the right granted by the Legis- lature to municipalities to subsequent- ly fix the fare at a reduced rate if they so desired in order to prevent extor- tion. E. W. Newhall, a director of the Union-street road, said dividends of 4% per cent only have been paid during the past six years, npne having been paid previously for ten years. Newhall said it now costs the company four cents to carry a passenger and a re- duction of the fare at the busiest hours of the day would result in the opera- tion of the road at great loss, Tirey L. Ford, attorney for the Unit- ed Railroads, held that the decision cited by the City Attorney affected an act of the Legislature of Georgla cre- ating a corporation which afterward entered into a subsequent contract with other parties and that it had no bear- ing on the alleged right of the local Board of Supervisors to fix or reduce fares, “If there was a contract between the city and the street rallroad companies in the franchises granted,” said Ford, “then both parties are bound thereby, but if there was no contract then this board has the right to reduce the fare. I maintain that the city did enter into a contract with the railroad companies with the consent of the State Legisla- ture and the clause permitting the grantees to charge a fare not to exceed flve cents did not permit the city to reduce it below that rate without the consent of the grantees.” e Baggett argued that the clagse de- scribed was not in the nature of a con- tract and after further discussion, dur- ing which nothing new was developed, the committee took the matter under advisemen: PERSONAL F. E. Welty, a real estate Seattle, is at the St. Francis. L. H. Taylor of the United States Geological Survey 1s at the Palace. V. P. Chipman of the Sacramento Board of Trade is at the Occidental.

Before that the primcipal, Miss K. C. McGrath, struck Eugene across the back of the head with a ruler and later my young- est boy Toemmie was hit across the back of the hand, both blows drawing blood.” Such was the charge made yester- day afternoon by Mrs. Bridget Brady of 305 Seventh street to the members of the Board of Education, which will investigate the case. Miss McGrath, the prineipal, was also present and faced her accuser. She denied resolutely the charges and sev- ral times the women became involved in recriminations, President Altmann having difficulty in getting their testi- mony clearly. The board took the mat- ter under advisement and will call upon other' teachers for their testimony. Mrs. Brady's story is that two years ago, her ten-year-old boy Eugene was struck on the back of the head by the principal with .a ruler and that the blood flowed. This is denied by Miss McGrath, who claimed that the boy dodged against the ruler. The mother asserts, however, that the principal told Eugene not to show, his bloody handkerchief to his mother, and also attempted to hide the bloodstains on the collar of the lad's blouse by turn- ing it under. The next assault on Eugene, accord- ing to Mrs. Brady, occurred some time later. She says that Miss Kate F. Williams and Miss Clara L. Finnegan, teachers at the Starr King School, threw Eugene across a seat and while Miss Williams sat on the boy’'s head and Miss Finnegan on his feet a Miss Horgan plied a rod made of three rat- tan tied together. No teacher by the name of Horgan can be found in the school directory. Mrs. Brady further says that pre- viously to this punishment Eugene fell from a fire escape at the Infant Shel- ter and spent a night at the Central Emergency Hospital. He was for a week afterward under the doctor’s care. She says that as a result of his alleged treatment at the school he has had three hemorrhages. Accompanying Mrs. Brady was her son Tommie, aged eight. He exhibits an ugly-looking scar on the back of his hand that he claims was caused by a ruler wielded by a teacher. . It is claimed by the principal, however, that the child’s hand was burned by a cigar. e e “Tahiti is the best of all my trips, and I have been across the Pacific many times; it is the poet's land, where it Is always after- noon and my fancy ever turns toward it with anticipation and pleasure.” This was the ex- pression of a world traveler who made the trip to Tahitf last summer.
