OFFICE BRINGS HARD WORK
General Superintendent F'ibbard OF
Santa Fe Is Busy Man

General Superintendent Hbbard of
the Santa Fe. the successor of F. j.
Shepard, took up the duties of his office
over a week ago but yesterday was the
first time that he has conducted his
business in his office in the ConserVa-
tivs Life building. This is not to say
that Mr.. Hubbard has begun his posi-
tion with a pleasure trip. He has had
more hard work in the opening week
of his career as general superintendent
than any other man who has ever filled
the position.
The rains began February first and
since that time Mr.. Hibbard, clad in
rain clothes and wearing high rubber
boots, has been out along the line of
the Santa Fe experimenting the work
of repairs.
At Kingman where the biggest wash
out occurred, he spent several days
and nights with little or no sleep, as
slsting at the work of putting in q
temporary bridge as diligently as any
one of his men.
Now that he is back in his office, he
ls facing the work which has piled up
during his absence from Los Angeles.

SCHOOL BOARDTO
ASK FOR BONDS
REPORT OF SPECIAL COMMIT
TEE is ADOPTED
Proposition to Secure $7soooO Fund
for Expansion Of City School
System, to Be Submitted to
Voters of District

The city board of education yesterday
adopted q report which recommends
the voting by the people of bonds for
school purposes amounting to s7SO,OOO.
The report has been i'm course of prep
aration several weeks and is the result
of the labors of committees, the joint
membership of which included the en-
tire board
In the course of the examination
into the needs of the department the
members of the board visited all the
schools in the city and ascertained con-
ditions by personal investigation. 1t
is believed that the plan proposed, will,
If adopted place the schools in a po-
sition to cope with the constant in
crease in the work of the department.
1t is said that the school department
has never been abreast of the times
during twenty years. The city has
grown faster than have the facilities
of the department to handle the work.
The enrolment is now 27177 pupils,
which is 5000 in excess of the number
enTOlleQ dJ luIS lllue ldSI ycdl'
The people will be asked to vote the
bonds under the school district law.
The purpose of this plan was explained
by one of the members of the board.
"There are hundreds of children" said
he, "who are not technically entitled
to attend the city schools. yet they
must be taken care of. BY adopting
the district plan we can give them
the benefits of our school legally. The
district comprises nearly the same ter
rltory as the city,"
The plan calls for the construction
of 120 new school rooms. There Is at
present $92, 900 in the building fund and
this amount is increasing at the rate
of $20S3 a month. This money was
derived from the sale of the Sixth
street school site and the income from
the rental of the Spring street school
site, the latter being continuous dur
ing the term of the lease The plan
calls for the construction of new build
ings and additions to the old ones.
The estimate for primary and gram
mar schools is $4SO,0O For the poly
technic school and the high school,
$780, For the parental school, $4O,-
600.
A resolution covering the features
desired by the board will be prepared
and made public and as soon as the
necessary legal steps can be taken the
question of voting bonds will be sub
mitted to the people of the district

INSANE ASYLUM
As LAST REFUGE
LIFE OF MISFORTUNE ALMOST
AT ITS END
Odd Character of Los Angeles Streets
and One of the Oldest Masons
on the Pacific Coast Taken
to Highland

Jibbering that he was young again,
Charles White, n years old, one OF
the oldest members of the Masonic
fraternity on the Pacific coast and for
many years a unique character of the
Los Angeles streets, was adjudged IN
sane yesterday and sent to the insane
asylum at Highland. In his life :;
of silver lining.
Few men know the story of his life
but those who do find few bright spots
in it. over half a century ago he was
at work as a reporter on one of the
big eastern papers. People said he
had talent. In 184S he became i'm
bued with the gold fever which during
that period sent many young and
old men to the California coast. For
ten years he wandered over the Pacific
slope in search of the riches which
never came. Then there is blank in
his life. Some say that when tho
southern states seeded he went south
and enlisted in the Confederate army,
to become a colonel under Stonewall
Jackson.
Thirty years ago he drifted back to
California. He brought with him a
wife. He tried newspaper work but
where in years past he had succeeded
he now failed. He took up other occu-
pations but failed in all of them. One
day not so many years ago, his old
friends found him selling papers with
the neWsboys at the corner of First
and Spring streets. This became his
station and in time he managed to
earn a living by the regular patronage
which came to him through charity if
nothing else.
Then his wife became insane and
was committed to the asylum and his
son was found guilty of a felony and
sentenced to two years in the penl-
tentiary. White, who was now at the
age when rest should come in place
of work, gave up his station at Spring
and First streets and started out with
a petition for the pardon of his son.
He worked for months and gained
hundreds of signatures. Then the pc
tton was sent to the governor and
then to the board of pardons where il
was granted The suspension of his
sons sentence was one of the bright
spots in his life.
or late, however, his mind has en-
tirey given way and at the request Of
some of his friends his commitment
to Highland was made.
