THE KINDERGARTEN.
Tho Necessity for the Free Kindergarten
AssociatiOn.

Tho Necessity for the Free Kindergarten
Association.
The following communication explains
itself; it is worthy the notice OF the
public:
EDITORS HERALD: beg leave to cor
rect, through your columns, misappre-
hension which seems quite general in
regard to the continued existence OF the
"Los Angeles Free kindergarten associ-
atiop."
This misapprehension may have
arisen from the fact that the city school
board had, two years ago, adopted the
kindergarten as part of the public
school system, and the inference was
naturally drawn that the work OF the as
sociation was no longer needed; or from
the fact that the one charity kindergar-
ten, then under the care of the associa-
ton, had been made over by it to Mrs.
Wills and Mrs. Stimson, for their man.
agement and support, in their pleasant
new building, near its own old loca-
ton.
This was done at the annual meeting
in October last, when the board, faith
full through 80 many years of service,
was also reelected, with the addition OF
two new vice-presidents.
But the work of the association ls as
much needed as ever. Since the little
people, under 5 years of age, who are
not allowed in the public school kinder.
gartens, are numerous in the lower part
of the city, and their hard working
mothers plead for the schools as relief
during their busy hours, and help in
all ways.
The association therefore appeals con.
fidently to its old-time patrons and to all
large hearted persons, to give it the
necessary funds and moral support for
inaugurating new kindergartens in the
most needy districts; and indulges in
the hope that, as in other cities, our
wealthy citizens, public bodies like the
chamber of commerce, produce ex-
change, churches, etc., will each in time
establish and support one Of these para
discs for the dear, little children.
The board, ,as reelected, is as follows:
Mines. O. M. severence, president; J..
B Fremont, A L. Lsnkershun, @. l..
Wills, Milton Lindley, T. D. Stimson,
Margaret Hughes, D. O. Cook, vice.

A WAR IN PROSPECT.

Chinese Highbinders Well Provided with
Guns and Ready to Fight.
Said Chinese merchant to a HERALD
reporter yesterday afternoon: "We ex-
pect war in Chinatown pretty soon !;
maybe tomorrow night, maybe next
night. One company send to San
Francisco for two boxes Of pistols; he
come last night-yes, the pistols-and
all highbinders now got guns and ready
for war. Chinese merchants all afraid
about war, and witnesses in lottery
cases afraid, too. The % lottery games
in Chinatown give $50 each for expenses
of war; understand"
The point he was driving at is, the
23 Chinese lottery companies here each
subscribed $50 for the purchase OF arms
and the payment of highbinders to
terrorize witnesses for the prosecution
in the several lottery games that were
recently raided. This he calls 'fwar."

He is Court MartiaIed for Scandaious Con-
duct.
Ensign N. 4. Eyre, an officer Of the navy
very we'll known in the social circles Of Wash
ington, is in serious trouble. He has lust been
tried by q general court-martial at Brooklyn
on charges Of drunkenness and scaudalous con-
duct while on duty attachedto the coast survey
steamer Blake.
The proceedings Of the court were very
brief and were simplifed by Eyre's admit
ting the truth Of the charges. throwing him
self on the mercy Of the court The story
told here is that he attempted to read a
statement to the court in partial extenuat.on
of his conduct, but broke down in the middle
from nervous prostration and was unable TO
finish.
The report that he pleaded guilty to the
charges is corroborsted by the brevity
OF the proceedings of the court and
the fact that the case has already been sub
mitted to the Navy Department for action.
The record of the court. including the pro-
ceedings and findings, were received at the
Navy Department today and after being re-
ceived by the Judge advocate general will be
submitted to Secretary Herbert. The impress
sion among naval officers is that Eyre has been
RECOMMENDED for dismissal. What makes his
chances for leniency bad is that this is the sec
ond time he has been tried for an offense OF
this character.
