The halr was wrapped in a separate piece of paper, and enclosed with the clothing, and was addressed with a heavy carbom pencil to “561 Thirty- eighth street,” the home of the Fuller tamily. The finding of the bundle so close to the home of the kidnaped child makes it appear that the miscreants were de- sirous of returning the child's pos- sessions to the house. From the gen- eral appearance of the box, it appears that it had rested but a short time in| the geranium bed before its discovery. | It was placed there after the recovery of | the girl at the Seventh-street depot | of the Southern Pacific Lompany. 2 - DRUNKEN MAN RUNS BERKE June 11 AMUCK. | D.

Unnerved by the Earthquake and Fire, but His Con- dition Is Not Serious. BERKELEY, June 11.—Friends of Professor George H. Howison, head of the department of philosophy of the State University, received Information today of his retirement to a sapitarium at St. Helena, where the distinguished scholar hopes to completely regain his health, which is believed to have been impaired by the shock of thé earth- quake and losses sustained by him in the fire. Professor Howison has found it necessary ta cancel the plans for his trip to Yale this summer, where he was to have delivered a series Pt im- portant lectures. Professor Bakewell, now at the head of Yale's department of philosophy, was until last year an associate of Professor Howison's here and a former pupil of the California savant. Professor Bakewell was called to Yale last year, and soon after his assumption of the position .there ar- rangements were made for Professor Howison to deliver a course of lectures on philosophic thought at New Haven during the coming summeér months. Because of this change of Professor Hewison's plan and the announcement that he had found it desirable to retire to a sanitarium, the report gained cur- | rency that his retirement from the uni- versity may be expacted soon. Those who are intimately acquainted with Professor Howison say that ne such programme is likely-to be found neces- | sary. It is believed that rest and a change of air will restore him to his normal vigor, and that he will be at his post next fall, when the university reopens, Professor Hewison is past the age limit when members of the faculty are ordinarily retired, but because of his commanding Intellect and the venera- tion in which he is held the regents last ear decided to make an exception in his case and continue him in his place at the head of the department of philosophy, for an indefinite period, on | _— e —————— PROFESSOR WOODWORTH TELLS HOW TO HANDLE CATERPILLARS vers Valuable Address at Farmers' Iustitute, Which Held Succens- ful Session at Cupertino.

BEGIN WORK sc""oul!‘mnxas'r LATE IN JULY of Education Will Hire Al Teachers Possible at the Outset. There was an important meeting of the Board of Education yesterday, the most important business being the con- sideration of the question of hiring school teachers. It was decided to do all possible to give employment to the | tried and faithful of the department. and to do all possible to make places | for those left adrift by the destruction of 412 classrooms. | On motion of Superintendent Renco- | vieri it was deemed the sense of the | board that no new teachers will ever be | hired until all of the old guard are | found to have places. The hiring of teachers will be in strict chronological order and taere be no chance, says | the board, for favoritism. | It was decided that ali scheels will | be reopened on July 23, and to the end | of having everything in readiness the Red Cross, city officers, armiy men and others were notified to vacate as close as possible to the 1st of July. | There were in all 1200 teachers em- | ployed In the city schools. and it is the desire of the department to give all employment as soon as possible. The | temporary and auxiliary schoels will | hire some, but 412 will be out of em- | ployment until the schools are rehabilie | tated. | Boara | | —_— Divorece Suits Filed. Rose M.
