HORACE MANN SCHOOL
Exercises to Be Held Next Friday
Night Declared Not to Represent
the Glass.

Many of the graduating class and
teachers of the Horace Mann Grammar
School resent the attitude taken by GER
tain of the graduates in regard to the COM
mencement exercises, and more especially
the statements which they have caused to
appear in the papers. The proposed en-
tertainment to be given on Friday next is
far from representing the unanimous will
of the class.
The trouble, so the teachers declare, has
been caused principally by several of the
young ladies of the class, who went to
WORK secretly to have the exercises with
out consulting the teachers. The latter
would have been perfectly willing to par
ticipate IN some sort of an entertainment
to be held at the end of the term, although
the recently passed rule of the Board of
Education would prohibit elaborate exer-
cises. Since portion of the class has
acted as it has done and defed the
teachers no exercises whatever will be held
at the school.
1.-The girls who are at the bottom of the
trouble" said one of the vice-princpals of
the school yesterday, ''are mostly those
who stand low in the class, and some who
will not graduate. Very few of the
honoraries or high pupils are having any,
thing to do with it. In justice to the class
| should like to correct the impression
that the proposed entertainment is in ac-
cord with the general wishes of the class"

the bylaws handed to them for considera-
ton during the recess.
A press committee, consisting of J. j.
Mollison, L. G. Weisshsar and Henry
A. Chase, was appointed to prepare re-
ports of each days session for the dailies.
Philip Rohrbacher, deputy supreme
arch, introduced resolution to establish
a relief board for the City groves. The
resolution was sent to the proper commit
tee and will come up for discussion to-
morrow, with a strong probability that it
will be adopted.
1t was decided that at half-past 1 O'Clock
to-day group photograph be taken OF the
Grand Order.
Last night, by invitation, the Grand
Grove attended the Tivoli and enjoyed the
play of "Lorrai ne."

GROEzINGER's BIG REQUIsIT1oN

GROEz1NGER's BIG REQUIsIT1oN

Presiding Justice of the Peace Groezin-
gers signature to a requisition for large
quantity of stationery and office supplies
brought the wrath of Auditor Broderiek
down on that department. of the City gov
eminent yesterday and revealed the fact
that he is contemplating making a heavy
cut IN the estimate for the next fiscal year,
as sent in by Clerk Williams The order
called for 1000 sheets of noteheads, with
envelopes, 5000 summons blanks, 1000 tran
scripts, 1000 blotters, quarts of mucilage
and 1000 undertakings for attachments.
Here it only wants fifteen days to the
close of the fiscal year." exploded MIR.
Broderick, land Justice Groezinger sends
to the Sheriff for enough stuff to last the
clerk and all the courts two months.
ut wouldn't be right even if the appro-
priatlon for stationery and supplies was in
good shape, which it is not 1t is already
some $4,000 overdrawn with nothing but
the overburdened general fund to fall
back on, and still these people ask the
Sheriff is compelled to comply-to
send them a lot of things they do not
really need. l don't see what Justice
Groezinger was thinking of when he
IhC
1T would appear to me that the Justices
Courts should be very careful about
spending any more of the public money
than they do at present. They already
have four clerks there for whom there is
no great necessity, and the work of the
office, if conducted on the same principles
as that of a downtown business house,
could be very easily done without them.
~ should not be very greatly surprised
if some of these clerks salaries were elm
mated from the estimate OF Mr.. Williams
before it gets through my hands and
those of the Board of Supervisors.
Some people lay great stress on the
powers that the law gives them but fail TO
think of the restrictions placed ON Tier
by the same law. While the presiding
Justice may by an order of court compel
the Sheriff to honor his demands in spite
of the state of the appropriation he
should not forget that the law requires
him to be at his court prepared TO perform
the functions of his Office from A. M. to
P. NJ. each day.
How many of the Justices do you
think do that? l only know of one that
comes anywhere near keeping within the
law?"

CORBETT AND SLAVIN.
The Champion VIII Fight Any Man
Who Has Got Coin to Bet.

The Champion VIII Fight Any Man
Who Has Got Coin to Bet.
1t was reported yesterday that Corbetts
manager, w. A. Brady, had written from
London, England, that the National CLUB
of London would not give any kind of a
consideration for contest between Cor
bett and Fitzsimmons and, in fact, the
club had no particular desire to match
Corbett against any man.
When Corbett was asked what informa-
ton of Importance was contained in
Brady's letter he laughinglv replied that
he had to receive the letter first before he
could vouchsafe reply.
1.-THE last letter l received from Brady"
answered Corbett, contained very little
news concerning the National Club of
London, England; in fact, l was made
aware some months ago that the National
Club had a grievance against me because l
would not apologize for some imaginary
wrong statements had been accused of
making. If l am right in stating any par
ticular thing l know to be fact, why
should l apologize to the National Club or
any other club for that matter?
Possibly the club owes me an apology
and it is angry because I don't get near
enough SO that it could excuse itself
verbally without the necessity of being
heard by the sporting people at large.
There are other clubs in London
equally as prominent as the National and
can say that il FItzsimmons or Jackson
will show the least desire to enter the ring
with me purse will be offered which in
value will be equal if not greater, to that
which the National Club would give for a
match between champions.
Eyes, see that Slavin will meet Maher
on Thursday evening in New York. am
told that if Paddy wins he will leave for
the West Immediately to have go with
me. Well, everybody wants a go with
Jim Corbett, and everybody with sense
who is not a pugilist knows that that
means cheap advertising for the chal-
lenger.
u have stated repeatedly that l am
looking for good, hard coin, and you can
say that am in the business to fight any
man living who will put up enough money
on the side to make the object one of con-
sideration.
First come, first served is my motto
II shall certainly give Ftzsimmons and
Jackson the preference, but if the New
Zealander and the Australian fail to come
to time with the long green then Slavin
and the others will be given an audience
that is, if they can show the color of
gold"

ADVOCATES OF SOCIALISM.
Active Preparations for State, National
and International Gatherings.

Active Preparations for State, National
and International Gatherings.
As the time approaches for the socialists
to hold their National convention the
members of the local branches are becom-
ing manifestly active in preparing for a
representation.
This convention will be held on July 4,
in New YORK City, and will be attended by
delegates from nearly every State in the
Union. After the National convention is
over the international congress will be
held in London. The congress will also
be held in July, and many delegates to
the National will attend the international
event.
The local socialists are already preparing
for these two conventions, beside the Cali
fornia State convention, which will be
held in this city in July, soon after the
National convention. The State executive
committee of the Socialist Labor party
met in the Turk-street Temple on Monday
evening and G. b. BeDham, Emil Liess,
Leo Gasser, Theodore Lynch, Gustave
Postler, Edel Hechet, II. A. Sahlender and
E. I. Kingsley, State organizer, were pres
ent.
After discussing the reports from the
several branches, Mrs. Charlotte Perkins
Stetson was Endorsed as the delegate to
represent the local branches at the Ma
tional Convention. Mrs. Stetson will also
represent the California sections at the In
transitional Congress in London. Many
distinguished Socialist editors and advo-
Gates will be present at the London Con-
gress. Gustave Postler and Theodore
Lynch were appointed committee to Sc
cure permanent headquarters for the
State Executive Committee TO transact the
business of that body during the coming
State and National campaigns.

ROBBERY OR WHAT?
Attempt to Assault Katrina VOlquarldz,
Servant-GirI In McAllister-
Street House.

Katrina Volquarldz, servant-girl with
H. Shemanski, 922 McAllister street. was
alone in the house yesterday afternoon
about L o'clock when a tall, darkroom
plexioned young man rang the front door
bell. She looked out of the front window
and thought she recognized him as a
plum ber's assistant who worked at Mrs.
Nathan's house, 512 Devisadero street,
when she was servant there.
As she had been instructed by her en-
ployer not to open the front door to any
body, she beckoned the young man to go
to the basement door. She went there and
opened the door a little, when he forced
it wide open and saying, "Ive a good
m ind to Kill YOU" struck her in the face,
knocking her down, and she tainted. He
rushed upstairs to the parlor, took a lady's
cloak and rushed downstairs again. She
had just recovered from her faInting spell
as he reached her. He seized her and at
tempted to assault her. She screamed and
he struck her again in the face, kicked her
and ran away, leaving the cloak behind
him.
The girl ran after him, screaming for
help, and saw young man whom she m ct
by chance at Seventh and Mission streets
Sunday night and who accompanied her
home. She implored him to h clip her, but
by this time her assailant had disappeared.
She went to a drugstore near by, where
her blackened eye and swollen cheek were
dressed.
The police were notified and Detective
Harry Reynolds was detailed on the case.
He found the plumbers assistant and the
other young man in the store, but the girl
said neither was her assailant. Reynolds
said last night that he believed the assail-
ant was a friend of the young man who
saw the girl home Sunday night, from the
fact that he was waiting outside, and that
robbery was not the object.

fatally happened to Captain Farrell of the
schooner w. B. Phillips yesterday after
noon.
The schooner is in the Merchants dry

He overbalanced himself, and fell dis
lance of twenty feet, striking on his face.
He was driven TO the Receiving Hospital

The committee having charge of the
sports have collected over 500, which will
be distributed to the lucky winners as

Their Exchange Will Be Closed To-Day
While They Are Away.
The Builders Exchange on New Mont
gomery street closed its doors yesterday
afternoon at o'clock, and will not again
open them until tomorrow morning. The
cause of this temporary suspense is that
the 500 members with their families and
friends may meet in Sunset Park in the
Santa Cruz Mountains and there enjoy
themselves.
This being the first picnic given by the
association, it was deemed patriotic that
Bunker Hill day be selected for the occa-
sion, which has been done.
The Builders Exchange comprises all
grades OF men engaged in the building
trade. as also more who supply building
material. lts membership numbers more
than 500 men.

BOOSTERS GROWING.
Bold ChantIcIeer Frequently DecIai
Himself at the Wrong Time.

Bold ChantIcleer Frequently Declares
Himself at the Wrong Time.
BOOSTERS are famous for Growing at
the wrong time. If they once start to
crow they are bound to finish. You
can't stop them. A famous physician
up in Hagerstown, who was a member of
the vestry, once carried his game rooster
to the main in a bag, because he had to
stop at the vestry meeting on the way,
and he did not wish the parson and the
other vestrymen to see where he was
going. But it was no use. The rooster
lifted up his voice from the depths of
the bag and disturbed the meeting.
You can't suppress a rooster. If he
makes up his mind to crow, no con-
siderations of expediency can influence
him to stop.
A Baltimore boy had fine Plymouth
Rock rooster which was decorated with
beautiful tail, and he was altogether
proud of his appearance. The boy last
summer sent him up to the farm and al
first he was a great success. The
country hens focl1ed around him and
admired his fine feathers and his city
ways. But his happiness only endured
for season. One day he began to
moult and he did not stop in time. He
kept on moulting until he looked like
the cook had picked him ready to boil
for chicken soup. Then the hens left
him and another rooster became cock
Of the walk, and evil entreated our
friend. Thenceforth he had to go In a
flock by himself. When he found a worm
and clucked for the hens to come and
enjoy it they turned up their noses at
him and the rival rooster would fly at
him and eat the worm and prevail
nightly against him. And so all the
summer the poor bird ate the bread of
affiiction in solitude.
Hens are like women in another re-
spect. They cannot keep n secret any
more than a rooster can stop growing.
A hen will spend half day looking for
a safe and secret place TO lay her fresh
egg. And no sooner has she found it
and put her egg there than she jumps
off the nest and gives the whole snap
away by cackling as il her heart would
break. The more important a secret
the hen has the more impossible it is
for her to keep it. What she hears in
the ear she proclaims on the housetop.
If hen has brood with only one
chicken in 1t she makes a. mnfh fuss
over that one chicken as ayfcEian would

And if she happens to hatch out duck
it is painful to see what n goose she
makes of herself about it.-Baltimore
