continued 8lr. Barnes, "this trafficking in
pnblIc-school rUstttons by School Director

1885, is an amendment to section 1879 of the
Political Code, modifying to n certain eX-

Barnes, will go back several years. 1t

SUPERIOR TO ALL.
California Makes the Best
Smokeless Powder.
General FIagIer Says So-A Notable
Victory-Tests to Be Made
at Benicia.

AS California has achieved the distinction
Of making a smokeless powder which, I'M
der Government tests, has given more
satisfaction than any other, it Is believed
there is some mistake in the Washington
dispatch, published yesterday. announcing
that tie credit Of its composition belongs to
a man from Virginia.
few days ago Bernard Peytou, super
intendent of the California Powder Works
at Santa Cruz. received very encouraging
letter from Brigader-General Flagler, chief
OF ordnance at Washington. The letter
was in acknowledgment of a sample of
smokeless powder forwarded by MIR. Pey-
ton TO the frankfort Arsenal for trial, and
Informed the superintendent Of the Califor-
MIA Powder Works that it had been tested,
and had given better results than any other
smokeless powder sent to Washington for
trial
Mir. leyton was requested to inform the
chief OF ordnance whether he could furnish
the department any quantity Of the same
powder for use in manufactures.
To this reply was forwarded that the
California Powder Works could furnish The
United States Government all the smokeless
powder 1t required
General Flagler also informed Mr.. Peyton
That he was making arrangements for the
test OF powders at the arsenal at Bencia
and to have the officers engaged at that
post WOTk In connection with Mr.. PeVtOn IL
they could be of any use TO him. He closed
with an expressiO of his earnest hone that
the California Powder Company would not
discontinue their efforts To improve in the
manufacture of smokeless powders. The
general added that he felt an intense inter-
est In the matter and that the hope which
arose from the results obtained with the
California sample was very pleasant.
At the Frankford Arsenal are carried on
all the competitive tests with foreign and
other powders. Samples must always be
sent there for analysis, chemical treatment
and many tests which the Ordnance Depart
ment can mike at That place only.

the leaders of the recognizing movemeH
that the colored people, as class, would be
recognized when municipal appointments
were made. They claim to hold the balance
OF power in a close election, and wax eX-
ceeding wrotl now that they have been. to
all outward appearances. hoodwinked into
voting. for Democrats who now omit to
reward them. There is any quantity Of
talk among the colored people about town
concerning these disappointed hopes.
j. E. Brown, the editor of the Vindicator,
the local organ of the colored people, was
extremely emphatic in his utterauces yes
terday with regard to what he calls the
breach of faith between his people and tho
Democrats in power, and dire things are
threatened at tie next election.
MIR. Brown points to the fact that about
400 appointments came within the jurisdic-
ton of the advisory board, but the recon-
mendati0ns of colored people for places
were no. considered at all. Furthermore,
he cites as an instance that not only have
the present heads of departments failed to
appoint colored people to positions accord
Ing to promise, but they have cut off the
only two colored men employed in the new
City Hall.

COLLEGE CADETS.

Review Before Colonel Barry.

Thursday afternoon next Is to be gala
day for the young collegians at Berkeley.

sounding, and the military spirit of the
State University will be wide awake.
Colonel T. f. Barry, Third Infantry. of the
National Guard, will review the Battalion
Of University Cadets at the university
grounds. The review will be given in
honor of the regenta, faculty and alumni
of the University of California, and Lieu
tenant Benjamin ii. Randolph. professor of
military science and tactics at the university,
has made every preparation for the success
OF the display. Colonel Barry, the review
ing officer. is an old University of California
student, having graduated in 1874, in the
days when Professor William Il. Welcker
was chief OF cadets. Tom Barry, as he was
always called by his fellows, was an enthu-
siastlc cadet at college and took the prize
given by Major u. w. C. Thompson of the
National Guard of 500. with an appoint
ment as aid and the accOuterments of his
rank ms major, for proficiency in military
studies. Lieutenant Randolph has sent
special invitations 10 the regents, faculty
aud alumni to attend the review, and a
large gathering OF Berkeley men is ex-
pecte1. The review will commence at 3:45,
but should it rain the ceremony will take
place the following Monday.

COL0RED DEMOCRATS.
Indignant Because the Bosses Have No
Use for Them Now.

Considerable dissatisfaction is being dis
played by the colored people of San Fran
cisco in consequence Of the fact that they
have not been accorded any political pat
ronage whatever in the city since the last
municipal election.
There are nearly 1000 eolored voters in
the city, aud heretofore they have gone
almost as n unit to the Republicans, but last
election they organized clubs, took the
stump and cast the majority of their votes
This was done on the positive promise Of

STATIONS FOR NAVAL VESSELS.
What 10 Do With Them When the Great Pa
rade is Over

WASHINGTON, March 3U.--The navy de-
partment Is already inquiring into the con-
dition of the vessels which Will take part in
the naval review. with view of finding
out how many of the ships may be sent on
foreign stations at the close of the
parade.
The completion of the pageant will leave
| ! ships at New York possible of assign
ment TO the stations abroad. This number
includes the Miantonomoh, which will
probably remain at New York. or at least
go no further away than some of the other
ports on the Atlantic coast The Newark
and Bennington will probably have to be
repaired before they are sent away again.
None knows what will be done with the
Chicago, the boilers of which it was at one
time proposed to replace. This work may
vet be done at one of the navy yards and
the ship equipped with the new boilers in
the course of year. The department may
not care to 20 10 the expense of building
new boilers. and may prefer to send the
ship 10 sea again with her present inefficient
equipment.
The Baltimore, San Francisco, Charles
ton, Concord and Atlanta, which came
around from the Pacific, are reported to be
in good condition. They will have been
iocked and cleaned by the date of the rem
devious and will be, after few minor re-
pairs, fit for sea. The Philadelphia and the
Baltimore are in good condition. >Ts
The peculiar position of the Vesuvius
surrounds that ship with doubts as to her
| destination after the review. By that time
| it may be decided that the ship is inefficient
on account of her pneumatic guns in which
event she must be detained at one of the
yards until the weapons are removed and
some other form of armament placed on
board. The bureau chiefs at the navy
department are looking over the condition
of the naval review squadron and each will
report TO the secretary this week the state
| of affairs.

tate The woman died in 1859 and + Idly
