Expert M. l.. Hanscom has finished the
work of going over the books of ex-Clerk

in the town, as the franchise granted to
the San Francisco Electrical Company re-
quires The board has issued an order for
the company to make the required state
ment. Mr.. Hanscom criticizes the loose
system OF bookkeeping at present used,
and advises a more rigid system OF keeping
accounts of the town.

IT WAS A LIVELY MEETING.
The Amateur Editors Adopt Brand
New Constitution.

The Amateur Editors Adopt Brand
New Constitution.
The young journalists composing the
Golden State Amateur Press Association
had a redhot bi-monthly meeting last
night at the residence OF Editor Radius,
16091l Baker street. A new constitution
was up for adoption and of course the
scribes were out in full force to see that
nothing of doubtful nature was allowed
to creep into this most important docu-
ment.
Mr.. Mortimer, who has been in the
course of his journalistic career editor,
publisher and compositor of no less than a
dozen amateur sheets, was in the chair
and ruled things with high hand. The
opposition said he had been reading
Speaker Reeds rules, but he positively de-
MED the accusation.
The first serious proposition which came
up for settlement was whether there should
be any age limit fixed upon juveniles wish
ing to affiliate with the association. The
committee on constitution, headed by
Scribe Mccarthy, recommended that all
youths under the age of Is be excluded
from their consideration.
Editors Faucompie, Jackson and Yale,
after haranguing their friends, succeeded

rest of the amendments were adopted with

Hollub, who would like to be president.
of the Amateur Press Association OF
America, reported that the official organ,
the Golden State, would soon make Its ap-
pearance.
Hauser, who sets the type on the Re-
cruit and at odd spells writes the editorial
sinkers, remarked that he had heard from
Editor Davis of the Hotshot, published
way down in Alabama. This gentleman,
he said was willing to contribute some
matter to their paper. His proposition had
been accepted
Since the last meeting of the association
a prominent member in the profession of
amateur journalism has passed away.
Franklin G. Johnson, editor of the national
official organ, was recently drugged and
robbed in Monte Carlo. The tragic death
of this promising young journalist has
called forth many expressions of sympathy
among the amateurs. Last night the club
adopted appropriate resolutions.

FOR BREAKING A WINDOW.

w. II. Swain Gets Severe Sentence
from Judge COnlan.
W. B. Swain, the young man who wan
tonly broke window valued at $3.50 in
Roos Brothers store on Kearny street on
Sunday, January 6, was taught lesson
yesterday morning by Judge Conlan which
he will not forget in hurry.
He appeared for sentence and the Judge
gave him some valuable advice. He told
him there was not the slightest excuse for
his conduct. He was apparently well edu-
Gated and was not in destitute circumstan-
ces. The Judge ordered him to pay fine
of $3.50 or be imprisoned in the County Jail
for $50 days. Swain was completely taken
aback by the sentence and stared helplessly
at his friends, some of whom were in court.

OF the Commissioners, the avenue was
opened, became tired of the delay and pro-
posed to Mr.. Cohen that he would use the

holes. An audience is expected to be on
hand when the holey show begins.

William Maglinchy Wants Damages
From the Southern Pacific.
William Maglinchy, by his guardian,
Henry Maglinchy, has brought suit against
the Southern Pacific Railroad to recover
$4,000 damages for injuries inflicted upon
him through the negligence of the defend
ant corporation.
Maglfnchy was in Berkeley on Septem-
Der 80 last, where the accident happened.
He was waiting at the station for the train
going toward San Francisco to come in,
when a train of twenty-five freightcars
drew up in front of the depot and between
it and the track over which the expected
train was to run. The passenger train
came in while the freight was still stand
ing before the depot, and fearing that it
would leave, Maglinchy attempted to cross
between the cars. AS he did so it started,
and the result was his foot was badly
crushed between the bumpers. For this
he asks damages.

The. Governor Urged to Take Action
Against the Funding Bill.

Though much of the Mayors time is spent
at the City Hall yet the chief executive of

Yesterday he sent the following message to
Governor Budd:
SAN FRANCISCO, January 16, 1895.
To His EIceLtency Governor James II. Budd, the
Capitol Sacramento, CdI.-DEAR SIR: If you
would send message TO the Legislature urging
them to pass resolutions instructing the Sena-

California to oppose the funding bill to the end
you would do great service to the State. I'M
mediate action is important. With the highest
regards am very truly yours,
ADoLPH SUTRo.
P. S.-The Colorado Legislature has Just
passed such resolutions, and their interest in
the defeat of the funding bill is not one-tenth
that of our section.

service commission recently submitted
to the president further correspondence
and data, setting forth the benefits to

service regulations, the Offices OF chiefs
of divisions in the various departments.
1t is understood that the president has

make the extensions. The commission
will regard this as q most important
step in the direction Of reducing the

tention that such Offices can q well be
administered from an absolute non.
partisan basis as other offices nov in
