Prof. TyndAlI's Ride.
Monday. Daily.

MondAy's Daily.
 Prof. Tyndsll's drive yesterday proved to be a more interesting one and a more satisfactory test than bis previous one. The committee selected to supeTintend it was as fol- lows: Drs. C. A. Sewall and C. T. Abbott, Joe Morrison, J. F. Dillon, F. :. Emmal and l. T. Stoddard. While Drs. Sewall and Abbott had the professor in room in Hotel Burke blindfol1ing him, the other members of the committee got in the barouche drove down Monte. zuma street to the southwest coruer Of theiplaza thence around the plaza to the north east corner, to the bank building where they ascended the stairs and stuck a scarf pin in the awning, in plain view of all the spectators. Getting in the carriage again they drove down Cortez to Willis to Granite, thence up Gurley street to the hotel, the horses facing northward. Prof. Tyndall was care fully guarded from all, so that the hiding place of the article might not be communicated to him. He took his seat on the barouche and taking hold of Dillon's hand with one of his hands took the lines in the other and turning the horses southward started of at rapid gait, following the same course taken by the committee. Instead of stopping at the bank building however he drove a short distance up Gurley street but soon turned around driv- ing rapidly to the corner where he jumped of the seat rushed up the stairs and soon had the hidden pin. Entering the barouche again be followed the same course taken by the committee to the Hotel Burke where he alighted.

 On motion this was ordered pub lished for one week and final action on it was deferred until next Mon day, March 9.
 Samuel Hill, of the subcommittee on reduction works, submitted the following:
 We recommend that statistics of the concentrates and ores shipped from this town be obtained; also the grades and character of such ship ments; that a committee of three be appointed and that they advertise for statements from the mine owners as to the character of the ore they have, with the values and quantities and also furnish samples, if desired, so that this information can be fur nished to the newspapers for publi- cation as a sta Iding advertisement for the information of the mining interests at large, and copies be- sent to the different smelting companies for their information.

MRS. FREITAS DIVORCED,
Wife of the Commission Mer'
chant Secures a Decree
for Cruelty.
She Is Awarded a Large Amount of
Property and $50 per Month
Alimony.

A celebrated divorce case. that has been
in the courts for long time, was yester-
day decided by Judge Slack. About two
years ago Ada NJ. Freitas, wife of Manuel
T. Freitas, well-known commission mer-
chant, sued for dissolution of the matri-
monial contract existing between them,
alleging that her husband had treated her
with extreme cruelty in that he had used
harsh language toward her and had on
one occasion beaten her with his fists.
Mr.. Freitas fought the case bitterly, and
filed cross-complaint charging that his
spouse had been guilty of unseemly con-
duct in connection with man named
Smith.
Judge Slack recently referred the matter
to Court Commissioner Lawler, who re-
ported that he found from the evidence
that the charge of cruelty is true, but that
the allegations made in the cross com plant
are not sustained by the evidence. He
recommended that a divorce be granted
the plaintiff, which was accordingly done.
BY the terms of an agreement yesterday
entered into between the parties the
Freitas home, at 1881 San Carlos avenue,
is turned over to the wife. The entire
furnishings of the establishment are also
assigned to her, as is piece OF real estate
fronting on Elliott Park, west of Steiner
street. Sixteen hundred dollars on deposit
in the Grangers' Bank and $50 Fer month
ahmony complete the allowance made for
the plaintiff.
Attorneys Delmas and Shortridge
brought the case to q successful termina-
tion for Mrs. Freitas.

And here IS another foundliug:
AT THE HIGH SCHOOL.
Principal Brooks Denounced the
Scheme as Unauthorized.

Principal Brooks Denounced the
Scheme as Unauthorized.
There was a good response yesterday
afternoon to the cali for an anti-charter
meeting of publlc-school teachers IN the
Girls High School, on Scott street, but
95 per cent were not voters, because they
belonged to the lovable sex. This gave a
Mormon aspect to the assem- blage, but
there the similarity ended, for the women
seemed to know more about the subject
and to be much more enthusiastic than
the lordly men.
Madison Babcock presided, ana as soon
as he had called the meeting to order
Elisha Brooks, principal of the school,
took the platform and in an excited man.
ner said that he had been informed by
four candidates for Offices at the coming
election that they had been assessed and
had paid $40 each to be placed upon a
ticket to be supported by the School De-
partment.
Mr.. Brooks remarks were to the effect
that he had heard from good authority,
and he did not doubt its truth, that GER
tain persons in or out of the School De-
partment had been getting up ticket,
and that some candidates ior school di-
rectorships had been assessed and had
paid $40 each.
he added that the School Department
had not authorized any person or persons
to make up such ticket. and he de-
nounced the whole proceeding In the
name of tie department.
Mr.. Brooks thereupon offered resolu-
ton to the effect that the teachers disap-
proved of any arrangement looking toward
the carving out of such a scheme.
Albert Lyser was quickly on his feet to
DENY that he had had anything to do with
the matter, and to join in the denuncla;
ton.
Patrick Reddv, who, he said, would ex-
plain the objectionable features OF the
proposed new City char er.
Mr.. Reddy began by calling attention
to the fact that the charter vested too
much power in the hands of one man. NO
man was good enough to be intrusted with
absolute power. No sensible, conservative
citizen could indorse the placing OF SO
much power in the hands OF the Mayor.
The interests of persons who had devoted
their lives to education were that they
ould not be disturbed in their positions
without cause, and that cause must pc
substantial.
Section of chapter 3, authorizing the
discharge of teachers ''for sufficient cause.
which shall be determined by the board,
was commented upon as dangerous
clause 1t left the cause wholly In the
discretion of the board, and hence the
reason for teachers dismissal might re,
main locked up in the bosom of the board
even after the discharge Of the unfortu-
nate victim.
There was matter, continued Mr..
Reddy, which was not embraced IN the
synopsis OF the charter prepared by its
| friends, for what reason he did not know.
| That was the following provision: EVERY
| office except those which are by TINS
| charter made elective shall become vacant
| Immediately on the taking effect OF this
charter" In other words, the places OF
| ALI the teachers in the department will at
once be made vacant should the charter

BIG RAILROAD SUIT.
The Union Trust Company Seeks to
FOreclose a Mortgage for Five
Million Dollars.

The case of the Seattle, Lake Shore and
Eastern Railway Company VS.. the Union
Trust Company, on appeal, came up for
argument in the United States Court of
Appeals yesterday. Benjamin S. Gross
cup OF Tacoma appeared for the appellant
while E. Z. Hughes of Seattle represented
the trust company.
It appears that the trust company holds
outstanding mortgage bonds of the rail-
road company to the extent of So, sos, 900,
and that the latter defaulted in the semi
annual interest due August, 1898. The
action was commenced by The filing of a
bill on Decent ber %, 1898. setting forth the
fact that the interest $780, 0O0) was over
due, and by conditions of the mortgage
the principal and interest also became due.
The case was heard in the Circuit Court of
Washington, resulting in victory for the
trust company. The case now comes to
the Court of Appeals on motion for a
rehearing. The application, after able
argument on both Sides was submitted to
the courts consideration.

The attorneys for the defense in the case of

Harry Reynolds searched Hicks safe-deposit

the detective who on October Is was shot and
killed by J. A. Mitchell, yesterday applied for
special letters OF administration on the estate

appeared since the tragedy and Claimed the

OUTWIITED BY KEEPERS
Duck.Hunters on a FruitlesS
Cruise to San Pablo
Point.
The Birds Were Frightened Away
From the Ponds During the
Night Hours.

Five yachts manned by bold hun ters
sail ed merrily up the bay on Sunday last,
the hearts of the Nimrods beating high
with hope and their minds filled with
visions of fat and succulent ducks by the
score.
Five yachtloads of luckless, duckless
and angry hunters came home yesterday
and swore fuently under their breaths at
preserve-owners and those about San
Pablo Point in particular.
The saucy Rover, commanded by Charley
Bruce, headed the feet, and more en-
thusiastic band of hunters never dropped
duck
They knew that the marsh was alive
with ducks, and while they knew that the
sIoughs were fenced they were out for
game and intended to get it at any cost.
The fleet, which consisted of the Rover,

reached San Pablo toward evening, and
by the time they were snugly moored as
near to the duck ponds as the fence would
permit, 1t was too dark to shoot, so it was
decided to wait until morning before
venturing out. Guns and ammunition
were looked to. and the boys crawled into
their berths.
Their coming had been noted by the
eyer-prowllng keepers, however, and be-
fore any one had found sleep the banging
of guns from the direction of the nearest
| ponds warned the hunters that something
was on foot. They went on deck to see
what was happenin4, and after watching
few flashes of powder shoot toward the

it all.

| driving the ducks as far away from the
yachts as the reports of their heavily
