The Haste-Street Opening.
At the meeting of the Trustees tonight
the protest against the Haste-Street Open
ing will be heard. The case possesses the
unusual interest of having been in the
courts, with one of the Trustees virtually
plaintiff and also one of the defendants.
Three months ago an injunction was
served on the president of the board and a
hearing prevented. The Town Attorney
investigated the matter and found that the
injunction suit, while brought in the name
OF Mrs. Patterson, was in reality by one OF
the board, Trustee n. T. Whiting, he hav-
ing agreed to bear the expense if Mrs. Pat
terson would allow her name to be used.
As result of this peculiar action being
laid bare the suit was not pressed, and a
motion made for dismissal was granted.
against the opening, and will also have TO
consider a petition against this protest by
property-owners equally interested, who
ask that the streets be opened as originally
intended.
Open to It's Friends.
The South Park Settlement House gave

noon tea Saturday and many friends of the
movement dropped in TO get an idea of the
quarters and what was being done in set
Element work. Mrs. Bernard Moses, as
sisted by Miss Ethel Beaver, received and
DR.. Haynes, head OF the house, explained
the work that was being started. Among
the visitors was the Collegiate Alumne As
ISOLATION, which adjourned in body to
visit the house.
Settlement Work at Home.
The boys clubs of West Berkeley have

building, but have secured house Of their
own now. All the furnishings
benches, curtains, etc.-Wil be made by

There is one club of girls, conducted by

The South Wants 1t.
A petition from the Southern California
high-school teachers has been sent to Presi-
dent Kellogg by Principal Gates of the Los
Angeles High School asking that its next

Electric sanitation.

Electrical sanitation is being tried ex-
perimentally in several French cities. The
system is based on the electrolysis of sea
water. The electric current is used to de-
compose the chloride of magnesium, while
the chloride of sodium serves as a conduc-
tor. The result is liquid disinfectant OF
great power, which is almost odorless
leaves no residuum when used for flushing
and it is said to be inoffensive. 1t is fur.
ther claimed that the solid organic matters
in sewage are consumed or dissolved in
this liquid, leaving an odorless fluid, in.
capable of fermentation, and containing
only a few phosphates, and the salts of am.
monia and the salts of the disinfectant.

TOO MUCH FOR THE SHARPER
A swindIer Attempts an Old Game and
Is Arrested.

An unsophisticated looking italian
named John Barta, recent arrival from a
Marin County butter ranch, met with a
very engaging young man on Sixth street
yesterday afternoon, and, while enjoying
a treat at Barta's expense, the young man,
who gave his name as R. C. Tyler, CHANGED
to drop the information that he was on the
lookout for men TO work on some project
and named very seductive price as the
one he was at present paying.
Tyler offered to get Barta job on pay
ment of $50, which the Italian handed
over. Tyler then tried to get away but
and Officer James Fay appearing Barta re-
lated the trick. Tyler was arrested.
