A SHORT SESSION.
School Committee Ap-
proves Several Bills.
NO KINDERGARTEN YET.
Suitable Room Not Found in the
Cherry Street District.

A special meeting Of the School Com
mittee was held last evening and II proved
to be one OF the shortest sessions ever
held by that body. The object OF calling
the meeting was to approve of the pay
roll OF teachers wages, and but very little
other business was transacted, except to
receive the report OF Chairman T.. p.
Tobie OF the committee appointed to
make arrangements for kindergarten I'm
the Cherry street district, and the report
was not favorable to the project.
Chairman Barker presided and all of
the members were present except Messrs.
Blodgett, MeGregor and Coop.
The records OF the previous regular and
special meetings were read by Clerk Mich

The following bills were read and al

Chairman 4. p. Tobie of the Committee
on Kindergarten reported and said the
| committee examined into the matter
thoroughly. Several locations were visit
ed, and one OF them, tenement on Cherry
street, did not reach the requirements for
such purposes as 10 needed. The other
places were two stores. One of them Is To-
Gated on Dexter street and the rent II rea-
sonable, t25 month, yet there was objec.
tions. 1t was on line OF electric cars and
there are two saloons opposite.
The other store Is at the corner OF Broad
and Barton streets, and although IL IL ON

children crossing the track, az there 10 q
side door on Barton street and the chill
dren would all come from that section.
1t was we'll lighted, but would cost more
to fit 1t up than 1t would the other store.
The objection to j: was that the rent ID
s40O year or s125 for three months. This,
the committee thought, was exorbitant
and therefore reported that they did not
think II feasible to establish q kinder
Rarten In the Cherry street district at the

the committee continued.
Chairman Hartford said he had nothing
to reportin the High school matter, aa
the whole affair Is now In the hands oi

HE rs GOING THE PACE.
Harry j. Emanuel Wanted for Forging
His Fathers Name to Several
Checks.


For the past three days Detectives Byram
and Anthony have been searching for
Harry ]. Emanuel, son of Lewis Emanuel,
proprietor of the West Coast Furniture
Company, but so far they have been I'M
able to find him.
The young man is wanted for forging
his fathers name TO number of checks
for small amounts, which he gave to store
keepers for ladies' boots, silk dresses and
other feminine articles. The principal
sufferers are the White House, on Kearny
street; d. Samuels of the Lace House; and
the Chicago Clothing Company.
Harry is infatuated with young woman
who lives at 13 Eddy street. He spent all
his available money in buying presents
for her and when his funds gave out he
resorted to forging checks to pay for bills
he contracted for her.
He is believed to be with her and an
other young woman who lives in the same
house. The detectives ascertained yester-
day that they were last seen in Emanuel s
company four days ago and nothing has
been heard of them since.
This is not the first time young Emanuel
has been in trouble. Several years ago
his father, to keep him out of harms way,
sent him to sea. He returned not long ago
and soon resumed his fast mode of living
Emmanuel was arrested last night by
Detectives Byram and Anthony and de-
tanned at the City Prison without being
charged,

less than prizefghts; money is put Up,
and in point of punishment they are equal
to the average prize encounter. How do
I know this? Because 1 have witnessed
them and seen the way IN which the con-
testants manipulate the gloves, wringing
them out and displacing the hair filling.
| have seen them take the gloves and
wiring them as you would twist a saturated
cloth to dispel the water. This so dis
places the hair that it can be pushed back
and leave the surface across the knuckles
almost bare A blow from the hand, or
fist rather, incased in a glove thus treated
is equal in force and furnishing power to
the bare fist. Being an old boxer (and to
all the old-time club members Mr..
Cooks prowess in that line are well
known), [ think I am qualified to pass
Judgment on such practices.
"One of the principal reasons for the sue
cess of our boxing contests in the old Cali
fornia Athletic Club was that no manipu-
lation with the gloves was ever allowed.
Whenever had charge of bout saw to
it that the gloves were not touched after
they went into the hands of the contest

the hair away from the knuckle surface of
the gloves [ insisted on his taking new
set. No one better likes to witness scien-
tific fistic encounter than l. but when the
brutal element is introduced it becomes
less scientific than brutal exhibition"

THE PEPPER-K|NG FIGHT,
An Old Athletic Club Man
Thinks 1t Cannot Legally
Take Place.
Hiram Cook Believes Under the
Law the Olympic Club Con-
tests Are Illegal.

"Since the Legislature failed to pass the
bill permitting limited round fistic en-
counters, - said Hiram Cook. 81 do not see
how the authorities can let the prizefight
between Pepper and King take place next
week"
This observation from an old-time
athlete and prominent member of the
California Athletic Club carried weight,
and he was asked if he had reformed and
lost his interest in sporting matters.
''By no means,.' was the prompt re-
joinder; ''but / like to see the law
observed by every one, and if prizefghts
are illegal they should be promptly sup
pressed. As much as | admire the manly
art / should not attend a prizefight,
simply for the reasons / have mentioned.
The fight is to come off at some place on
the San Mateo line if it is not stopped by
the District Attorney OF that county. And
that reminds me, do not believe tnat
according to the strict letter of the law the
boxing contests as they are held at the
Olympic Club are permissible"

LATEST OAKLAND NEWS.
Footpads Rob a Drugstore and
Carry Off the
Cash Box.
THERE WERE THREE ROBBERS
The Reliance Club Relay Race
Profits Of the FabioIa
May Fete.

One of the most daring robberies perpe-
trated in Oakland for many years past
occurred at. Taggart's pharmacy, at the
junction of Fourteenth street and Broad
way, at 1 o'clock yesterday morning.
The night clerk, E. L. Crum, was sitting
in the store waiting for customers, when
three roughly dressed men, one of whom
wore patch over his right eve, entered
and asked him to apply leech to the eye
OF the man with the patch, who had re-
ceived an injury which made such an
operation necessary. Crum went to the
rear of the place, followed by the men,
who kept at his heels as he went behind
the prescription counter, which is con-
cealed from the street by a high glass
screen.
AS he turned to speak to them revolver
was thrust into his face, and the com
mand, Hands up" followed rapidly.
The clerk had no alternative but to obey,
and he was instantly seized by two of
the men, while the man with the patch
stood guard with the revolver.
Crnm was bound with ropes which the
robbers carried with them, and gagged
with a handkerchief, after which the men
began search of the place for valuables.
They were not long IN finding the tin cash
box in which the proprietor kept his sur
plus funds.
Just as they discovered this receptacle
Officer Green, whose beat is in the vicinity
of the pharmacy, came to the door and
looked in. One of the footpads saw him
and went to meet him, engaging him in
conversation at the very moment that the
two robbers inside were debating in whisp-
ers whether they should break open the
cash box in the store or carry it to some
convenient locality before doing so.
Being entirely unsuspicious of what was
going on inside the pharmacy, the officer
walked down the street with the affable
robber and parted with him at Twelfth
street and Broadway, the footpad saying
that he was going home to bed.
Those who remained in the store were
evidently frightened by the visit of the
officer, for they left soon after he had
passed down Broadway, leaving Clerk
Crum bound and gagged on the floor.
The latter had kept his senses while the
robbery was going on, and Immediately
after the departure of the men began to
work at his bonds, and soon had them so
loose that he could slip his hands free and
remove the gag.
He went Immediately to the Central
Police Station, which is about half block
from the drugstore, and informed Captain
Fletcher of what had occurred. The officer
went TO the store and examined the prem
ises and later telephoned to the officers in
different parts of the city to look out for
the robbers.
About 10 o'clock yesterday morning a
boy named Pickett, who lives near Lake
Merritt, found the box the robbers had
taken hidden in some grass at the corner
