MENACE TO THE
SCHOOL CHILDREN
City Contract Work That
Did Not Last Two
Months.
Artificial Stone Sidewalks Sink
and Go to Pieces at Cooper
School.
Repetition of the Job That Has Been
Done at the North Cosmopolitan
Schoolhouse.

The principal of the Coorer Primary
School, on Greenwich street, between
Jones and Leavenworth, has been in
rather hard luck of late, and all on account
of the way work is done by City contract
ors. In this instance the trouble of the
principal and assistant teachers is the
constant strain to save the young children
from iniuring themselves IN the ruts and
caverns of an artificial stone sidewalk that
was constructed about two months ago in
front of the sehooihouse.
1t is a repetition of the worry and fear
of the North Cosmopolitan School princ-
pal for nearly year past, and which, by
the way, are not yet at an END, for the
North Cosmopolitan schoolhouse and
yards have been in the hands Of contract
ors, at the imminent risk of children
limbs.
Last summer the School Department
undertook to improve the Cooper School
so that it might be habitable by pupils
during winter months. A bulkhead,
erected when the street was raised in front
at considerable expense to the depart
ment, had fallen in, and with it went the
sidewalk. The yard of the school was in
disgraceful condition, but it was paved
with bituminous rock and masonry sus-
tanning wall was erected along the line OF

The Board of Health has been COM
PEELED to take water in its fight with the
Board of Education, and it will not an
swer the injunction suit.
The matter came to a head yesterday
afternoon when special meeting was
called to hear the opinion of the board s
attorney on the subject.
The members evidently knew what was
coming, for DR.. Fiizgibbon moved that the
board go into executive session to hear the
report. What transpired beyond the
closed doors of the assembly-room none
but the doctors and the employees know,
but the faces of the members were long
when they emerged. Attorney McEnerney
was more communicative and in a few
short sentences related what he had told
the board.
81 simply told the board that it had no
right to close the schools, and that its po-
sition IN the matter could not be sustained
in court" he said.
"Then you must have told them they
had gone beyond their province and ex-
ceeded their authority p said reporter.
II informed the members that / could
find nothing in the statutes to justify their
action" was the evasiye answer.
Health Officer Loyeiace let the cat out
of the bag after the meeting.
Eve knew beforehand what McEner-
ney's opinion ould be, he said, "but we
went ahead anyway TO see what we could
do. We made a fight, anyway"
When informed of Lovelace's admission,
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1896-12-05

a member of the Board of Education said:
''This is just in line with the arrogant
actions of the Health Department. With
a full knowledge that it could not sustain
its position it goes ahead and puts US to
no end of trouble and expense.
The closing of the schools for even a day
in such manner is conducive to bad disci-
pline, and we won't tolerate such proceed
ings again. Surprising some one had been
killed or even hurt in dispute with those
inspectors over the closing of the schools,
what nice load the Health Department
would have had to carry. We shall make
all necessary repairs on the schools and
keep them OPEN"
Seven cases of diphthera, located as
follows, were reported at the Health Of
fee yesterday: Three at 4241 Eighteenth
street. two 4577 Eighteenth street, one at
35 Hardy street, and one at $50 Capp street.
One death was also reported from Pond
street.
There have been fourteen new cases and
five deaths reported since December 1.
Drs. Morse and Williamson have been
appointed a committee by the Board of
Health to draw up laws to be presented at
the next LEGISLATURE giving the board the
power to close schools when disease
threatens to become epidemic.

one-quarter OF an inch in thickness. One
of the clerks stated that the cement was
spread lightly over the fresh clay and
went to pieces when the rain got through
tho cracks.
The contract for this part of the work
was let against the advice of the Street
Inspector, but so far it has not been paid
for by the Supervisors. Superintendent
of Streets Ashworth was surprised to hear
of the matter and stated that he would
make an investigation at once. So it is
highly probable that the whole thing must
be done over again before payment will be
made by the Supervisors.
More than year ago contractors took
hold of the North Cosmopolitan school
house on Filbert street, near Jones. The
work was finished in due time. but, like
the Cooper School case, the yard flooring
sank. The bulkhead on Filbert street
broke and fell in, and School Director
Henderson, chairman of the Buildings
and Grounds Committee of the board,

it wore all right until the last rain came.
Then the ground sank several feet and the
patent stone cracked and fell into great
holes where whole squares stand on edge.
The new sidewalk became a wreck and
a menace to the safety of the children at
tending the school. And now the teach
ers are constantly worried lest one of
their charges might fall into rut and be
injured.
Superintendent of Schools Babcock ex-
amined the stone sidewalk and took a
sample of it to his office. In showing the
piece of cement he remarked: ut is about

Mother Lode looking after his mining inter

that the-Prince had contracted debts in Eng
land and that Messrs. Maple & Co. of London
were pursuing him with legal papers to collect
the sum of $4,000 for furniture obtained from
that firm, positive denial of its truth comes
from the family of Poniatowski. The secre-
tary OF the Prince said last night: "You can
deny on the very best of authority the state

Physical Culture, Pure Food and Drink
Mark New Era.
A great, popular, pure drink and pure
food wave is just now passing over the
country, and it seems to have come to
stay.
More attention Is being given to articles
people are slowly learning that good
health cannot be preserved under
the present civilization unless the
habits are of more natural character.
The apparently harmless coffee habit now
numbers its victims by the thousands,
producing obstinate stomach and bowel
troubles that will not abate except by
leaving off the habit.
Its not always an easy task to drop a
lifetime habit.
One of the late discoveries is pure food
coffee, made entirely of grains and pos
sessing great fattening and nourishing
properties while it brews the exact deep
seal brown color of Mocha, and when
ere am is added 1t takes the rich golden
brown OF old Java. The taste is pungent
and piquant, quite similar to coffee; in
fact so close to it in aroma and flavor that
the coffee-drinker who has had trouble
with coffee will freely take on the new
grain drink when he discovers that it
agrees with him perfectly and its health
full properties quickly dismiss his former
ails.
The great feature OF this new and ra-
tional method OF dismissing sickness is to
avoid drugging oneself and quit hurtful
habits, taking in only what is known to
be pure natural food such as the Creator
| intended for mans subsistence.
