Senator Elkins is receiving consider
able attention from the press of this
State. The criticisms of his position
ON the Cuban resolutions are not con-
fined 10 the Democratic papers, for
many Republican editors are telling
him that he did not voice the senti-
ments of West Virginians when he OPP
rosed that resolution. The Senator is
;ndeed unfortunate. That interview on
labor and his attitude towards Cuba
will cause him to switch off and take
n new start.

The first of three Oriental entertain

The entertainment was a Conversations al
description of a trip from Joppa to Jeri-

He described q trip in the Holy Land

TO INSIST ON
CLEAN SCHOOLS
Grand Jury Wants to Hear
From the Board of
Education.
Members Have Been Making an
Independent Investigation
of Buildings.
They Find That the Complaint of the
Board of Health Was Well
Founded.

1t can be said of the new Grand Jury
that it is wasting no time. 1t has already
begun active work looking to the re-
Mobilization of the public school buildings
with regard to their proper sanitation.
The jury will summon the mem bers of
the Board of Education before it at its
meeting next Friday to learn from them
the limitations or possibilities in the situ-
alton from their standpoint. Members of
the jury have already consulted with
members of the Board of Health, but the
latter declare they have been shown to be
powerless to more than point out the
necessity of reform.
At the meeting of the jury week ago
Foreman Peixotto appointed every mem
Der committee OF one to inquire into the
condition of the school or schools nearest
his home.
At the semi-weekly meeting of the
jury held yesterday these eighteen sew
eral committees reported, and the col
lective reports present sad picture of the
public schools of this City. The Hearst
School is reported as leading all the rest
in the matter of unhealthy conditions, I'M
sanitary plum bing and bad drainage.
The jury promises to do all that it can
matter.

STILL HAMPERED BY DEBT
Reports Made by the Chiefs OF
the Various Y. M. C. A.
Branches.
Remarkable Showing by the Financial
Management That May Soon Clear
the Institution.

The forty-fourth annual meeting of the
San Francisco Young Mems Christian
Association was held with very large at
tendance at the association building,
Mason and Ellis streets, Monday evening.
1t was called to order at 8 o'clock by Vice
President R. V. Watt, who presided dur
ing the session.
J. J. Valentine was unanimously re-
elected president of the association, and
R. V. Watt and C. s. Wright were elected
to serve with him as viee-presidents.
Samuel Foster was reelected treasurer.
c. A. Maydwell recording secretary and
b. G. Wright auditor.
NJ. S. Woodlands, chairman OF the NOM
mating committee, made his report, and
Major w. B. Hooper and John F. Merrill
were elected members of the board of
trustees, and Messrs. 1. J. Truman, Wal
lace Bradford. N. P. Cole. G. S. Wright, ].
S. Webster and DR.. E. L. Kelly were ap-
pointed on the board of directors, which is
the managing body of the institution, the
trustees being the custodians of all prop
erty owned by the association.
Reports were presen ted from the various
branc hes of the great institution, includ-
ing the religious, physical, moral, social,
educational. boys. ETC., all OF which showed
that most commemorate work had been
accom- plished during the year.
The most remarkable feature of the
years work was the financial attainment.
One hundred thousand dollars has been
subscribed by interested friends to the
building fund of The association, sos, 900 OF
which has been received and paid on ac-
count of the Indebtedness.
The report of Mr.. Foster the treasurer,
showed that the income from the portions
of the building rented and from mem her
ship fees had provided for the actual run
ming expenses of the a ASSOCIATION. When
the incubus OF debt is removed the insti-
tuition will be in splendid condition. To
bring the actual running expenses within
the income from mem berships and rentals
the association has been obliged to rent
great deal OF the building that ought TO be
used Tor purposes of the association and to
curtall the work in every direction on ac-
count OF the burden of debt that still rests
upon the institution. But the cancellation
of the balance of the debt will practically
be an endowment for the work.
Committees were appointed for the pur-
pose of arranging for reception to-
mechanics at the association building in
the near future, ana also for reception
for clerks and statesmen.
The cd property of the association on
Suffer street is now rented for sufficient
amount to provide for the interest on the
mortgage on that property, and it may be
taken out OF the market until realty i'm
proves.

Miss Helen Schweitzer, youngest daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. B. Schweitzer, and
Samuel Stiefel, prominent: New York
merchant, were married yesterday at noon
at the residence of the BRIDES parents.
corner of Post and Leavenworth streets.
1t was one of the most elegant weddings
of the season, and nothing that taste could
suggest or wealth provide was neglected.
The entire lower floor of the spacious
home was placed at tine disposal of the
guests. Early on Monday morning Miss
Bates and her corps OF assistants took
possession OF the home, and with the AID
of choice blossoms, palms. ferns and the
many other accessories used for decorative
purposes, made the home look like an en-
chanted palace. In the corridor the
decorations wers arranged according to the
brides desire, and the effect was similar to
that used at the wedding of Miss Cora
Schweitzer and Marcus Koshland five
years ago.
Palms concealed the wall and met over
head, Long stemmed Gala lilies bloomed
on all sides ana poised high in the air
were countless white doves, supporting in
their beaks festoons of airy tulle. In the
drawing-room where the ceremony was
performed an altar draped in pink and
white embroidered silks was improvised.
Overhead hung baskets of roses and carna-
lions, white, pale pink and deep carmine.
Hundreds of pink tapers hid III the sur
rounding greenery shed soft light on the
beautiful scene.
Standing at the altar in the midst of all
the floral beauty Rev. DR.. Voorsanger read
the impressive Jewish service which made
the happy young couple one.
The BRIDE, who is dainty and petite, wore
a bridal gown of white satin completely
shrouded IN an overiress of white tulle.
The gown was destitute of all ornament.
The veil was fastened to the couture with
a wreath of orange blossoms. The bride
was attended by Miss Clara Joseph, maid
of honor, and Miss Cora Miller, Miss Agnes
Brandenstein, Miss Alice Greenebaum and
N ISIS Belle Gerstle.
Joseph Silverberg was best man and
Monroe Schweitzer, Henry Sachs. Leon
enebaum, Sig Bauman, Manfred
Brandenstein and Jesse Triest the ushers.
Florence and Edit Guggenheim were
the little tiower-glrls who gracefully
strewed fragrant blossoms along The path
to the altar.
The bridesmaids were attired alike in
pink gowns. The skirts were of pink

MORE velours and the waists of the same
material were covered with white net.
They wore large black velvet Gainsborough
hats.
Miss Joseph, the maid of honor, wore
dainty gown of white mousseline over
white silk and hat similar 10 those worn
by the bridesmaids.
After the ceremony an elaborate break
fast was partakcn of. The tables were set
in a tent that had been erected on the
lawn at the side of the house.
The presents were costly and elegant.
Mr.. and Mrs. Stiefel lett last evening
for short bridal trip.
Amid copious shower of rice the newly
welded couple darted into their carriage,
blissfully unconscious of the fact THAT the
vehicle was tied with long white satin
streamers and that from the spokes of the
wheels dangled dainty white satin slip
pers. Crowds followed the gay. equipage
tor blocks vainly trying to get a glimpse
OF the newly welded pair within.
Mr.. and Mrs. Stiefe will return for a
short stay in town previous to their de-
parture for their future nome in New York.

WILL PAY WARRANTS.
The Usual Hold-Up by the Auditor
VIII BE Omitted.

The Usual Hold-Up by the Auditor
VIII BE Omitted.
AS the result of a warning given the
chairmen of the various committees OF the
Board OF Supervisors by Auditor Broder-
lex, the usual wholesale hold-up of war
rants will not take place this year. As
general thing toward the end of the year
the funds are in depleted condition and
the Auditor is compelled to pigeonhole
large number of warrants to prevent over
drawing. As the danger appeared 10 be
approaching several weeks ago, the Audi
tor called the attention of the Supervisors
to the matter and asked them to be care
full.
On the last day-of it's official life the
board sent down a number OF warrants
that the Auditor feared would overdraW
the funds and he held them up until he
could ascertain the exact condition OF the
funds. A computation showed them TO
be in good condition and few overdra1ts
developed.
The registration and election expenses
ran over the appropriation to the extent
OF $12, COL 81, but the warrants will not be
held up as the Supre me Court has decided
that such demands must be paid under all
circumstances.
In the health department funds, the
jaiis and prison and hospital expense APP
preparations are slightly overdrawn and
the warrants will have to wait q few weeks.
The Police Patrol is in the same condition,
but none of the overdrafts are heavy.
