Meeting.
designations Accepted With Deer
Regret-New Appointments
and other Work.

Owing to the great amount of bust
ness to be transacted, the regular
monthly monthly meeting of the Kin.
dergarten Board of Supervisors, held
yesterday, was an unusually protract-
ed one. Mrs. Hyde presided and the
usual reports were presented
| 1t was with great regret that the
resignation of Miss Kellogg from the
position of Director of the japanese
kindergarten was accepted. Miss Kel-
logg returns to her home in Berkeley
this summer, while her position will
be offered to Miss Frances Kinney,
who has just graduated from the Chi
cago Training School.
The resignation of Mrs. VIM. G.. IT.
win from the Palama Committee will
be a great loss to the society, as she
is most active and interested work
err Mrs. Irwin will not entirely sever
her connection with the association,
but upon her return will, in some 9TH
er capacity, continue her work. Mrs.
Widdifield was appointed to fill Miss
Birnie's place on the same committee,
while Mrs. P. G. Jones was transferred
from the Chinese work to fill the place
left by Mrs. Irwin. Mrs. Henry Laws
takes Mrs. Jones' place on the Chi
nese Committee.
A committee for the Eva Kinder
garten was appointed, consisting of
Mrs. J. B. Atherton, Mrs. w. ]. Low
RE, Mrs. J. A McCandless, Mrs. H. n.
Castle and Miss Margaret Hopper,
with Mr.. w. J. Lowrie on the Advis
DRY Board.
The reports of the financial secre-
tary. the treasurer and the chairman
of the various committees are all par
ticularly encouraging. Benson, Smith
e Co, Ehlers e Co, and Mr.. ID. B.
Smith have each pledged sums to the
Business Mems Fund, amounting in
all to about $3.50 per year.
The most flourishing condition is
found in the Portuguese Kindergarten,
where Mrs. Tarbell has been compelled
to limit the number of children by adj
hitting only those between 4 and s
years, instead of and z, as formerly.
The attendance at the Foreign Kin
however, is greatly dimin-
ished, through fear of diphtheria,
while at Palama children stay away
in order to escape vaccination. It is
also expected that the public school,
lately started in that vicinity, will take
away some of the pupils.
In conclusion, Mrs. Charles Day, rep
resenting the Japanese Committee,
read touching tribute to the memory
of Mrs. Henry Waterhouse. Mrs. Wa
terhouse had been one OF the most
and efficient members of the
possessing the rare power
Of understanding the needs of those
with whom her work brought her in
contact, and of. meeting them with
the most loving and sympathetic help.
The association felt that the place left
vacant by her could not soon be filled
bV another.

HEALANPS MEET.
Appoint a Committee TO Confer
With the Other Clubs.

At meeting of the Healani Yacht
and Boat Club, in the club house last
night, there We're present quite a large
number of the members.
James w. Lloyd was elected secre-
tary, in place of D. w. Corbett, re-
signed.
The main business of the afternoon
was the discussion of the policy of the
club in relation to future races. There
seemed to be great opposition to the
idea of rowing in different classes of
boats, such as has been common in the
boat clubs for years past.
The rowing association was consid-
cred weak in one point, namely, the
admission of clubs which would give
no guarantee of entering crews in the
races This was considered point
calculated to weaken materially rae
ing on the Islands. u was the opinion
of the club that no oUher like organi-
cation should be permitted to have 2
voice in the association, unless it was
| the intention to enter a crew or crews
| in the races.
! A committee, consisting of Captain
| Carter. w. F. Wall and J. A. Low was
u
appointed to see if similar committee
| from the other clubs can be named. :
successful. there will be a conference
I in which the matters mentioned above
will be discussed.
In speaking of the matter last night,
! Captain Carter said: at is time that
/ there should be some uniformity about
/ the racing here. The boats in the va
rious races should be similar. AS it is
now. one club is continually irving 10
get another boat better than the best
one belonging to rival organization.
| If the boats are similar the sport will
! be better, the interest greater and
more honor will be won by tha victo-
rious crews. Prompt action VIII have
to be taken if new boats are to be
ordered. as regatta time is fast an
preaching.
There is one thing more 7 would
| like to mention, namely, the appoint
ment of a board of arbitration to se--
tie all disputes arising among the
clubs"

OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL

9OS Broadway, Aug. IS.
The "com parison of strength,' as the
affair Is spoken of. between DR.. George
Pardes and W. r. Davis, is now being
quietly determined, although nothing is
being said about it in places whore poll
ticians openly gather. Neither is it being
carried on in the political saloons, for the
men who have right to appear as the
political friends of either are notsof that
class; but drawing-room contest is being
waged. Friends are holding little in
formal gatherings in their libraries and
offices, and although all is calm on tie
surface, the political ocean is really in a
condition bordering on storm.
There is one very peculiar development
in this contest between two of the firm
est friends. socially and politically, in
this county. in the past the county ma :
chine has actively and persstently op-
posed all the poll teal ambitions of George
Pardee. On no occasion has it allowed a
chance 10 pass to thwart his plans and
block his political progress. Neither has
it ever posed as being in harmony with
W. r. Davis. for although he has not
sought anything politically for years, he
has always been a leader in the forces
virtually controlled by George Pardee.

Auditor Snow Points Out Some Flaws
in the Assessment of Seventh
Street

OAKLAND, CAL, Aug. 19-City Audi
tor Snow to-day declared that last nights
action of the City Board of Equalization
in ordering the venth-street line placed
upon the assessment is illegal. He will
consult the Tax Collector and ascertain if
ne will attempt the collection of the taxes
if the assessment is made before com ply
ing with the boards request. He said:
II tried as hard as 1 could to get as
much of the railroad property on the city
rolls as possible, but he State Board had
got in ahead OF me. They even included
the track leading UP the incline to the big
coal bunkers in the railroad yards, as a
portion of the main line, so that that
could no; be assessed by the city.
II left the assessmen OF the road in '95
upon the rolls so that IL test case could be
brought but there is no doubt but that
the railroad can show it was assessed by
the State board that year. They claim
the local road to be a part Of the main
line, and this is very easy thing for
them to do. A person can buy tickets on
that line to any point on the road and
these tickets can be used on the line
