large amount of his time toward develop

year of its existence he has been able to

orfor a children's playground, or to be
rented for the benefit of the manse.
The manse partakes of the nature of
club and an educational institution, and
the details of its workings were recently
told in The CALL. 1t has proved very pop
ular under the somewhat contracted pol
icy of the past year, and now that it is
firmly established and placed in the hands
of those who have the necessary time to
give to it, it is expected that its popularity
will greatly increase The inhabitants in
the locality in which it is situated are en-
tirely composed of the working class, and
it is among these that the principles of the
institution can be best taught and prop
erly appreciated.
A lady member of the council will soon
leave for the East for the purpose of study
ing the settlement work in large cities.
She will visit many institutions of the
kind, and will endeavor to secure capa-

The settlement is entirely undenomina-
tional, and opens its doors also to those
who have no connection with any church.
Miss NJ. E. B. Norton at present residing
at the manse, is acting secretary, and
has assumed all financial responsibility
until the opening of the new year. At that
time it is expected that the manse settle
ment will be perfected in all its practical
details, when it will enter upon many new
branches of work

BOYCOTT BY SALOONS,

tons in Honor of Judge Nc.
Kinstry.

BERKELEY, Nov. 6.-Troube is in the
air for the wholesale liquor men and
brewers who continue to sell their goods
to the violators of the one-mile liquor
law. Town Marshal Lloyd is after them
and promises to make things interesting if
they are caught in the act.
There is still more to be considered.
The saloon men in the west and south
ends of town outside the jurisdiction OF
the State law and town ordinances say that
they have grown weary Of paying licenses
while others conduct the same kind of
business free of cost. They have plan to
boycott the dealers who sell to the saloon
keepers in the east end of town. They are
confident that this course will entirely
break up the custom of clandestinely deal
ing out liquor within the mile limit.
The wholesalers sell vastly more of their
brews and liquors in West Berkeley than
in the east end of town, and the whole
salers will be given their choice as to
whose patronage they will continue to So
licit.

The merchants of this city are taking
stems to see il there is not some manner of
compelling the heads OF departments to
purchase only from those who have con-
tracted to supply them. They have cou-
suited legal advice and have been assured
that they have good grounds to bring dam
age suits for the amount of profit that
they claim to have lost through not hav-
inc the custom that is given to outside
parties.
Several of these merchants having con-
tracts called OH the Mayor this morning
and reminded him of the fact that they
had put up certified checks as bonds with
the city for supplying goods for the CON-
ing year at contract prices. They ask if
there is no way of compelling the city to
also observe the contract They have been
advised that unless there is an express pro-
vision to the contrary, it is legally incum-
bent on the city to purchase from the mer-
chants with whom its contracts are made.
The Mayor vas also reminded of the pro-
vision in the charter that says tits his duty
TO see that all contracts with the city are
faithfully executed. The gas company
has bond up of $4,000 to carry out the
terms on its contract. The manner in
which the tax levy was apportioned by the
Council after leaving the hands of the
Mayor does not leave sufficient sum by

90S Broadway, Nov 6.
A sensational discovery was made to-day
by Superintendent McClymonds of the
School Department. The report of the
Mayors expert on the new Grant School
was sent to the Superintendent for verifi-
cation. He was not long in finding out
that the expert had taken the wrong plans
entirely and had not been able, naturally,
to make them fit the Grant School.
81 could not see" said MIR. McClvmonds
tonight, chow it was possible for such
glazing errors to be made in the construc-
ton OF any public building. On compar-
ing Expert Hopkiss' report with the speci-
fications of the Grant School L at once saw
that he was at fault. He plainly states
that the attic joists are just one-half the
size they should be. but on measuring
them and comparing them with the speci-
fications l found that they were absolutely
correct. l then turned around for some
thing 10 fit the case, and after going
through several specifications | discovered
that the expert had taken all his ideas
from the plans of the Third Ward School
and had never seen those of the Grant
School. The Grant School plans were
locked up in the safe of the Board of
Works all the time the investigation was
being made.
by this discovery everything is ex-
planned. The Third Ward School is a big
building of fourteen class-rooms, while the
Grant School is a comparatively small
building of five class-rooms only. 1t
naturally follows that the plans of the
big school could not be made to fit the
construction of the little school. And this
is the truthful statement of the --latest
school scandal.'n

BUDD IN OAKLAND.
The Govern or Makes a Flying Visit to
the Blind Home.


the Blind Home.
Governor Budd paid a flying visit to
Oakland this morning, his purpose being
to make an inspection of the Home of the
Adult Blind and the workings of that in
stitution.= Superintendent Sanders had
received no intimaton of the Governor
call, and was completely taken by sur
prise.
Governor Budd was accompanied by
Colonel James Of Stockton as member of
the Governors staff. As they were driv-
ing out to the home IN a carriage the
party passed Superintendent Sanders, who
had just left for trip across the bay.
The Governor had never met Mr.. Sanders
but suspected that he was the man that
he passed, and so he sent his carriage
back to bring the blind superintendent to
his home. The Governor stated that he
had called to take look at the home so as
to inform himself by personal knowledge
OF its interior working.
He inspected every corner of the institu-
ton and also looked at the accounts and
the contract for supplies. He remarked
that the board of directors of the home
obtained them cheaper than several other
institutions. He spent about two hours
and a half at the home and conversed
with many of the inmates, and expressed
himself as generally pleased with the state
OF affairs. He refused an invitation to
dine at the home and drove straight back
TO San Francisco without stopping in Oak
land.
