FOraker's Epigrams,


1.-The Republican party never hired a
syndicate to maintain the credit of the
country"
"The battle we are to fight is not only
for Republicanism, for nationality, for
prosperity and progress, but it is also
for decency. honesty and the good name
of our great commonwealth.
"Does any man believe that it would
help business if Ohio should go Demo-
cratic this year? Does not every man
know that the best thing for this coun-
try that can happen this year is Re-
publican victory in this state, and that
the larger it is the better it will be? And
is there not in this fact alone conclusive
proof that the times are improving, not
because of anything the Democrats have
done, but in spite of all they have ac-
complished, and because it is believed
that the triumphant restoration of the
RennDlican party to power is near at

BENCH SHOW IN PROSPECT.
It Is Expected to Have 800 to 900 Dogs on
View,


People do not often go to the dogs with q
full consciousness of what they are doing,
but that is what a large number will do in
this city when the Pacific Kennel Club
opens its bench show at the Mechanics
Pavilion on May s. 1t is proposed to keep
the show open for four days, and 7. ].
Watson, chairman of the bench-show COM
mittee, says the club expects to give the
biggest exhibition ever held west of the
Rocky Mountains. He said:
1--WE have as fine a class of dogs as are
owned in the United States. In fact, Cali
fornia field-trial dogs, 1 claim, lead those
from any other part of the country.
1--WE expect to have between 500 and GOO
entries. Applications have been received
from Oregon, Washington, Southern Cali
fornia, and even from Victoria, B. G.
John Davidson of Monroe, Mich, who is
recognized as one of the best all-around
judges in America, has been engaged to act

able premiums we shall award for dogs,
we have decided to offer prizes for the

Quentin until after he could find time to
make personal inspection of the place,
and, if necessary, an investigation of the
affairs of the prison. Governor Budd has
been In San Francisco great deal recently,
but he has not gone to the States big insti-
tuition, even though Warden Hale's term
expired week ago to-day. 1t is therefore
almost sure thing that Warden Hale will
continue to live for at least month more
at the pretty terraced home he has on the
northern shores of the bay.
The Directors are DESTROYS of retaining
Warden Hale in his position. They have
full power in the matter, but they are EVIL
IDENTIFY acting in very courteous manner
to the Governor. There are no factions in
the board, as has been represented.
Neither will there be fight between J. B.
Ivory and r. M. Fitzgerald over the posi-
ton as fifth member of the Board of Direc-
tors. Fitzgerald will be recognized by all
the other Directors and Ivory will not
make any contest.
A most valuable director will be lost, for
Mr.. Ivory has been an earnest worker
while on the board. AS the directors are
in favor of retaining Warden Hale it IS
hardly possible that they will conCede too
many points out of courtesy if he attempts
to make fight. If any row takes place it
will be between the Governor on one side
and the four directors on the other.
Warden Hale spoke freely but quietly on
the subject. He said:
know of no rupture in the board and I don't
believe there is any. As far as l am concerned
/ would like to remain in my position if the
Governor and the directors see fit to retain me.
If not, / will extend the right hand OF fellow
ship to my successor and cheerfully show him
how the place has been managed so he can
decide how to act when he takes the position.
l only hope that Governor Budd or some one
in authority would make an investigation. I
believe it would rebound to my credit, for am
certainly proud of the record of my manage
ment. do not care to say more as l have
never allowed any of my men to compare my
administration with that OF any former
warden.
The records show, however, that not single
convict has escaped during the four years he
has been in charge of the prison, whereas the
lowest number of escaped prisoners in any four
years previous was thirteen.

IF TEACHERS MAY MARRY
Superintendent Moulder Says
They Should Have That
Right.
Questions Raised by Henderson's
Resolution to Remove the
Barrier.

A great interest is being manifested by
teachers of the School Department in Di-
rector Henderson, resolution to repeal the
old rule in restraint of marriage laid upon
women teachers.
The rule is very old one, and provides
that when woman teaching in the depart
ment married it was equivalent to submit
ting her resignation. The rule was adopted
after good deal of discussion upon the
subject and for reasons that seemed man.
fest and entirely sufficient to the board.
1t was during the previous incumbency of
Superintendent Moulder, who registered
himself as against it.
At a recent informal meeting of the
present board in committee of the whole,
this rule became a subject of discussion
and Superintendent Moulder took occasion
to say that he did not believe the rule
would stand in law. "If any teacher
chooses to marry and decides to contest
this rule with us in court | am quite GER
tain we would lose," he said. I'm the
first place it discriminates to the advantage
of the male teachers and in the second it
is we'll known constitutional principle
that no law in restraint of marriage can
stand"
Speaking OF the matter yesterday after
noon, Mr.. MOulQer SalQ: Ill is very uell-
cate question. l was little surprised
when Mr.. Henderson introduced his reso-
luton, as / was not aware that he intended
to do so Indeed, am very glad that
was not consulted, although of course l
favor it for the reasons stated. The great
majority of the teachers in the department
are young women of manageable age.
This rule might well operate to deter many
of them from marrying where the pros
pective husband in the case might not be
in position to provide an establishment.
There is no sound reason why the young
woman, if she were so disposed, should
not marry-no reason except this rule.
cit will be noticed that the rule does not
prevent married woman from being APP
pointed to the department. but requires
the resignation of one in the department
who marries. The operation of the rule
has been evaded by teachers resigning
when about to marry and being afterward
reappointed."
One reason which is being urged against
the repeal of the rules is, that if the lady
teachers are allowed to marry and retain
their positions they are likely to be sought
by the never-do-well young man looking
for a wife capable of earning enough for
two and who will thereafter allow the
teacher to provide for him.
To this argument the answer is made
that a Young woman who can so far take
care of herself as to secure and hold posi-
ton as teacher in the public school may be
trusted further with her own affairs, of
which the question of marriage is essen
TALLY one.
The resolution will be acted upon at the
next meeting Of the board.

RETA-WOLF TRAGEDY.
eve Die for Love" Were the Last
Words of the Unfortunate
Girl.

"Died from gunshot wound, inflicted
while temporarily deranged" and "Died
from gunshot wound inflicted by Carlos
Enrico Reta" were the verdicts returned by
Coroner's jury in the case of Carlos
Enrico Reta and Miss Adele Wolf, who
were found dead in the Palace Hotel last
week.
The first witness called was Miss Marie
Wolf, a sister of the deceased. She told of
having received letter from the dead
woman, which stated that she and Reta
were going to the Palace Hotel to kill
themselves. Miss Wolf destroyed the
letter, because she did not want any one
to know it's contents. The only passage in
it that she could distinctly remember was,
ave die for love-" She had known Reta
about six months, or during the time he
was teaching her sister. At ten minutes
to o'clock on the fatal Thursday evening
Reta called to take her sister to the theater,
and that was the last time she saw them
alive.
Adolph Wolf told of his going to the
Palace because of the note from his sister
Adele. He told the officers that Reta was
upstairs with his sister and was going to
kill her. Detective Glennon and Officer
Butterworth told of the finding of the
bodies.
The mystery surrounding the death of
the young people is therefore still I'M
solved. There is at present in the Post
office registry department a square box
and letter addressed to Miss Wolf.
They are both addressed, "Miss Adele
Wolf, General Delivery Postoffice. To be
called for' On both sides of the box is
written, "Fror Carlos Reta." Both letter
and box were mailed the day before the
tragedy.
The Coroner attempted to gain posses
sion of the letter and parcel, but the postal
authorities refused to give them up.
