PRESIDENT WHEELER
WILL LECTURE TONIGHT
Head Of the University of California
to Describe the Olympian
Games of 1895.

BENJAMIN Ide Wheeler. president Of the
University of California, will deliver an
Illustrated lecture tonight in Metropoli-
tan Temple on The Olympian Games of
Athens" The proceeds of the lecture will
be presented to the Associated Students
of the University of California.
President Wheeler was one of the inter-
national jury in charge of the famous
Olympian games, held in Athens in 1896,
In which the international championship
was won by an American team. He acted
as Judge at the finish and availed him
self of the opportunity to take a great
many photographs of the games, which
he has made into lantern slides. On his
return from Europe he gave lecture on
the games to the students at Cornell
This met with such success that he was
invited to give the lecture at nearly all
the large Eastern colleges. The popular
ity of the lecture is attested by the fact
that he has given the same lecture for
various benefits, no less than six times, at
Cornell University alone, and its popular
ity has never diminished.
AS this will mark Professor Wheeler
first public appearance in this city 1t is
expected that q large attendance will greet
him He is an entertaining talker and has
a subject that gives him every oppOrtu-
nifty to display his abilities. A large dele
cation from Berkeley and Stanford and
from the university and other clubs have
arranged to be present. The Berkeley and
Olympic Elevens will also be in attend
ance. Reserved seats may be obtained at
the Emporium box office, of E. I. Allen
Company and at the hall this evening.

INHERITANCE TAX FUNDS.
Dickinson Will Decide It's Availa-
bility for School PURPOSES.

Attorney John H. Dickinson yesterday
addressed to Auditor Wells a commu-
nication in which he outlines clearly just
what channels the moneys which will
fall to this city from the inheritance tax
must take before they are available. Upon
the question of whether or not money
so derived may be used in paying off back
salary claims of teachers, General Dick
inson is not at this time prepared to rem

day next for the purpose of discussing
that point with State authorities. His let

The following resolutions were adopted
by Cathedral Council No. SO, Y. M. l., at
a meeting held Thursday night:
Whereas On or about the first day Of No

known purporting to have emanated from the
Young Mems Institute and requesting that the
suffrages of those to whom 1t was addressed be
given to certain candidates for the reason that
they were Roman Catholics; and
Whereas The circular aforesaid advertised
particularly the election of those candidates
who were members of the Young Mems Insti-
tute; and
Whereas. The circular aforesaid is a malicious
libel a reflection upon and gross misrep-
order and

RAIN WAS GENERAL.
Northern Part of the State Fared
Better Than the Southern.

THE storm that has been with US for
the past fOrty-eight hours said Weather
Official McAdie last evening, has been
very general throughout the State A
tremendous quantity of water has fallen
in the northern and central divisions, but
the southern portion, which needs it most,
seems to have been overlooked in the dis
tribution of pluVial faVors. There was a
slight fall in San Diego and Fresno re-
celved just about enough to wet the
The biggest rain Of this storm has
been in Santa Rosa, which registered a
fan of ;oS inches, making a total OF $50
against L69 for the same period last sea
son. Calstoga comes next with a fall Of
- in the last tWenty-fOur hours, which
is total Of 1919 for the season. against
LIP last year. In this city the fall up to
o'clock last night was 81, total of 432
for the season All the records show an
increase in rainfall over last season, ana
the benefits that will be derived are in
calculable. 1t means a great deal of
water for the mines and wherever water
power is used; II means food Tor cattle
and that the farmers may now get to
work blowing the ground. 1t Will also
have a tendency to put money in Circula-
ton, as It will dispel that uncertainty
which prevails regarding the weather in
this State. Some people have an idea that
the climate is changing here, but that
idea is not borne out by the conditions
which prevail.
From reports Just received there is a
heavy storm off Vancouver 1t having
moved up there from the Oregon coast
There are thunder-storms at Eureka and
Baker City and a good high wind blowing
at the rate of siXty-three miles at Fort
Candy This means more showers for
San Francisco. The wind is now south
west but will most likely shift back to
southeast again. l calculate, however, that
we will have clearing weather Saturday

Mr.. Meade yesterday received an offer
from the Johns Hopkins University to
become one Of its staff of professors. The
request was Worded in a highly compli-
mentary vein and means practically the
selection of Mr.. Meade to fill the chair
Of meteorology. After maturely consider
ing the proposition in all its bearings Mr.
Meade concluded not to accept and sent
the following telegram in answer to the
invitation:
I fully appreciate the offer but my duties
and the problems of the coast make me think
that In the bureaus interests should remain

PRISON DIRECTORS
IN A DEADLOCK
Un able to Choose a Sue

Special Dispatch to The Call.

SAN RAFAEL, Nov. 1O-Since the
death of Warden .Aull Of Folsom Prison
more than month has elapsed and dur
ing that period two meetings Of the Board
Of State Prison Directors have been held,
one at Folsom and one at San Quentin.
Rumors are rife Of various influences be-
Ing at work to place Captain of the
Guards R. ]. Murphy in charge Of the
institution
Director Devlin was the first man to
come out and advocate Murphy as Aull S
successor and in a short time he won
Director Hayes. the only other Repub-
ncan member Of the board, over to his
way of thinking.
President Fitzgerald stands out for
Thomas Wilkinson, commissary at San
quentin Prison under ex-Warden Hale,
while from the best information that can
be obtained Directors Ray and wilkins
are in favor Of the selection Of William
l.. Ashe. 1t is known that Ashe is max
Ing hard fight for the position, but the
probability at present is that a dark
horse will be elected warden. Several
are in the field whose names have not
been given publicity. and it is stated that
the Democratic members have agreed
that in no event will any of them vote
for Republican. The board may break
the deadlock tomorrow at San Quentin
Prison

We're appointed a committee to arrange
for the benefit
The managers of the theaters have done
a great deal for charity in this city, and
have never shown themselves unwilling to
aid a good cause. This is the first time
that they ask the public to aid their own
interests, or rather the interests of their
employees, and the necessary assistance
should not be withheld from them; the
secretary was instructed to write to Froh-
man and the other leading Eastern man
ayers for support, and as this or org MIA
is no doubt that a large amount of tick
cts will be bought by these people. This
association is the first of its kind ever or
ganized in America, and it is quite a
credit to the managers of this city, who
by their action proved that they stand
together and are eager to work for each
others benefit. By means of this organl-
zation the support of an indisposed actor
will not fall upon the shoulders OF one
management.
