SAYS BOARD ACTS ILLEGALLY

Complaint has been made to Civil Ser
vice Commissioner Mccarthy that the
Board of Education has employed two
non-civil service carpenters. and carpen-
ters on the eligible civil service list are
extremely agitated over the matter. Nc
Carthy says that he was reliably in
formed that the lboard has put J. B. Will
liams and James Wilson to work fitting
up rooms in the Humboldt School.
Mccarthy quotes the charter to show
that the Board of Education has no power
to- employ carpenters, the power being
vested solely in the Board of Public
Works. He declares his intention to bring
the matter before the Civil Service Com
mission.
School Director Roncovieri says the men
have been employed ever since the char
ter went into effect. They do odd Jobs
which he says cannot be dignified by the
name of carpentering. They are union
men and earn 81 per day. but, Roncovieri
says, do not belong to the organization of
which Mccarthy is president.

Rev. W. M. Reilly Conducts Impres-
sive Funeral Service at st.
Paul's Episcopal Church.

The funeral Of the late Miss Eta But
Ter, daughter of John Butler of this city,
took place yesterday. the impressive SER
vice being conducted by the Rev. Will
liam Maxwell Reilly at ST. Paups Epis-
copal Church, of which Miss Butler had
been a member. There was a large at
tendance of sorrowing friends and many
members Of the theatrical profession were
present. The altar was decorated with
a profusion of white chrysanthemums
the offering Of officers of st. PauPs

VAST FORTUNE
GOES To WIDOW
Mrs. Baxter Tevis Will
Receive Princely
Estate.

Hidden beneath q pail Of beautiful or
chids, the remains Of Alice Boalt Tevis.
the little daughter of the late Hugh
Tevis, were laid tenderly to rest yester-
day afternoon in the Tevis plat In Cy-
press Lawn Cemetery. The funeral was
held from the Tevis home on Taylor
street. The parlor in which the body re-
posed during the service was filed with
fragrant floral pieces sent by the many
friends Of the deceased. Bishop Nichols
and the Rev. r. c. Foute off1ciated at the
house and read the impressive service
for the dead of the Episcopal church The
paIIbearers were Monford 8. Wilson,
Horace Blanchard Chase, Clinton E..
Worden, c. A Small. Lansing Kellogg
and Charles S. Wheeler.
Considerable speculation has arisen as
to the effect the death of Alice Boalt
Tevis will, have on the disposition Of the
property left by her father and the late
Mrs. Susan B. Tevis. wife OF Lloyd
Tevis. In accordance with the Will made
by Hugh Tevis shortly before his death.
almost his entire estate of $4000.000 will
now pass to his widow, Mrs. Cornelia
Baxter Tevis. When the late Susan B.
Tevis died she left a large portion Of her
estate. estimated at s2.50000O. to her
granddaughter. Alice Boalt Tevis. Under
the laws of California this princely sum
will now pass to the little son OF the late
Hugh Tevis and Mrs. Cornelia Baxter
Tevis. This little boy, who will come into
an immense fortune when he attains his
majority, was never seen by his father,
as he was born about eight months after
Hugh Tevis' death. Thus a great portion
of the Tevis estate will pass into the pos
session of Mrs. Cornelia Baxter Tevis
and her little child.

Journal Newsboys' Band In Concert to Be
Given to Raise Piano
Eund

The many friends which, the Journal
Newsboys' band has made among the peo-
pie of Minneapolis, will have an oppor-
tunity to attest their good will toward the
boys by patronizing the concert which the
band has arranged to give at the Met
ropolitan opera-house Sunday afternoon,
Feb. 1. 1t has been apparent for some
time to the instructor, Mr.. Heintzeman,
that a piano would be very valuable
adjunct and great help for the further
advancement Of the boys. He brought
the matter up for the consideration of the
band members and the proposed concert
is the outcome. The boys feel confident
that patronage enough will be secured to
purchase reasonable priced instrument.
There will be a great surprise in store for
the patrons of this entertainment. The
progress of the band has been something
remarkable and the program prepared
would do credit to any of the best mill
tary bands. MIR. Heintzeman gives assur-
ance that it will be artistically rendered
and faultless. The boys extend hearty
invitation to all their many friends to
purchase tickets and" to assist in filling
the opera-house to overlooking on Feb. l.
