TEACHERS NEED
NOT Be WORRIED
That Bill Before the Legis-
lature Was Not Under
stood.
Considered by the Senate Com
mittee on Education and
Approved.
Present Hoders of Grammar and
Primary Certificates Not to Pass
New Examina tions.

SACRAMENTO, CAL, Feb. l.-Ieach-
ers throughout the State, and particularly
in San Francisco, have been much wrought
up over a measure before the Legislature
relative TO teachers certificates. This
measure rroyides for the issuance OF ele'
mentary certificates a new designation
for those which give the holder the right
to teach either primary or grammar
grades.
The apprehension of the present holders
of primary and grammar certificates was
due to the fact that they believed they
would have to secure one of the new GER
tificates and so be compelled to undergo q
new examination.
This, however, is not the case All the
holders of primary or grammar certificates
at the expiration of the required period of
experience will be granted life diplomas
in their respective classes, and none of the
present rights or privileges OF certificate
holders will be in any way interfered with.
This afternoon the Senate Committee on
Education considered the bill and gave a
hearing 10 she committee re presenting the
San Francisco teachers, comprising Su-
perintendent Babcock, Messrs. OConnor
and Lyser and School Directors Waller
Drucker and Burns. The bill was dis
cussed in detail, and met with the full
approval of the visitors from San Fran
cisco.
Among other things it provides that
teachers certificates issued by the School
Board OF one county shall be good in every
other county of the State. The committee
decided to recommend the passage of the
bLll.

AFTER THE MINOR PLACES.
w. H. Elliott and Theodore Roosevelt
Want ths ASSISTANT SecrefoYship
of the Nayy

CANTON, OHIO, Feb. 11.-Major McKin-
lev shook hands with four score or more
of visitors to-day and found time to reply
to a number OF letters and talk to an old
friend or two.
w. H. Elliott, newspaperman Of New
castle, Ind, who was formerly in the navy
and is graduate or the United States
Naval Academy, called to present his ap-
plication for Assistant Secretary of the
Navy. Mr.. Elliott is indorsed by many
prominent men of his own and other
States. The President-elect gave him a
careful hearing and asked him to confer
with Ex-Governor John d. Long of Massa-
chusetts about the matter, which seems
to prove very conclusiveiy that, as these
dispatches have announced, Mr. Long has
been definitely settled upon for the DO
sitlon OF Secretary of the Navy. 1t was
also learned by Mr.. Elliott that Theodore
Roosevelt is candidate for the position
OF Assistant Secretary of the Navy and
that no promises have been made to him.
General Andrew Hickenlooper of Gin
cinnati was a caller at the Mckinley resi-
dence this afternoon. He is of the opin-
ion that a friendly conference among
those concerned will practically settle the
question of Mr.. Sherman's successor in
the Senate of the United States.
Among other callers were NJ. E. Furner,
Charles L. Stone and William a. Jones,
Syracuse, n. Y, who came, they say, on a
special mission; B. f. Havens, Terre
Haute. Ind; CALVIN Whitney, NorwaIk,
OHIO; James Hasmer, New York; Cap
tain NJ. B. Gary, Cleveland; j. l.. Cam
eron and Judge L. Piper of Marysville,
Ohio; w. q. Whitehouse, Tennessee; DR..
George D. Pollard, Jefferson, Ohio; B n
jamin Jones, North Lawrence; Judge
Henry G. Thayer of Indiana, elector- at
large and messenger to Washington of
the Indiana Electoral College.
Mr.. Abner Mckinley arrived in Canton
this morning. ]. H. Brigham of Ohio

tary of Agriculture, talked with Mr.. Nc

question of American institutions versus

''If we indorse Buddhism" he added. I'VE

and book-binders who would be turned
out into the streets if the office should be
closed for lack of funds TO run it. He be-
lleved that The Governor had been misled
as to the statements in his message. not
m aliciously, but ignorantly, and called at
tention TO the Misrepresentation in the
Governors message as to the capacity of
the presses.
CaDlinetti followed with a statement
that the bookkeeper of the State Printer
had been unable to account for the dis
crepancy of 1000, and asked why was it
that the bookkeeper, who surely should be
the best authority, could not give the COM
mittee the same items as were read by
lie avitt.
Leavitt replied that he had obtained the
figures quoted by him from the book.
keeper himself. Caminetti attacked the
leaders OF the labor meeting held on the
evening previous and denounced them as
'agitators" and 'demagogues. He ac-
cused w. B. Thorp of having robbed the
State by drawing money for work that was
never performed by him.
The ballot on the question as to whether
the bill should be passed, notwithstanding
the veto OF the Governor. was as follows

Il WARRIOR's SUICIDE.
Gallant Captain DcGifin of Chimes,
Fame Shot Himself.

Fame Shot Himself.
NEW YORK, n. Y, Feb. 11.-Captain
Philo H. McGifin, formerly an officer of
the Chinese navy and commander of
the battle-ship Chin Yuen in the battle
of the Yalu, committed suicide this morn
ing at the Post Graduate Hospital by
shooting.
Captain McGiffin had been in the hos
pital for month under treatment for
nervous protration. He retired at 10
o'clock last night. His nurse, named Bar
rett, saw no hing unSsual. At 2 o'clock
this morning Barrett was startled by a
pistol shot. He hastened to Captain Nc
Gitfin's apartment and found the patient
sitting boIstered up in bed dead. A
hastily penciled note addressed to the
hospital authorities, expressing gratitude
Tor klndnesses TO the writer, was found
but it gave no reason for the action.
Captain McGiffiD, formerly an officer in
the American navy, resigned to accept
service under the Chinese Emperor
Captain McGiffin was in command of
the Chinese warship Chen Yuen during
the battle of the Yalu, Septem Der II, 1894
and though he fought her we'll and bravely
was compelled TO retire. The injuries re-
ceived in that fight, not regarded al the
time as especially serious, completely
shattered his health and he has been an
invalid ever since. A few months ago his
mind gave way and he was committed TO
an insane asylum.
