Obituary..

Michael G. Smith, who came to Col
orado in 1860 when an OK team was the
only means of transportation, died on
Tuesday, Aug. 6, at st. Anthony's hos
pital after a long illness. Mr.. Smith
was born in Ireland in 1890. and upon
coming to this country settled in Madi-
son, Wis, where he remained until the
call Of the west grew too loud to be
longer resisted. Then. with two broth
ers, he started the long and tedious
overland journey to Colorado. He set
tied in Weld county and engaged in
stockraisi1g, which proved very remu-
nerative, and it was not very long be-
fore he was able to retire from active
business and spend his life in comfort
in Denver His wife, whom he mar
ried while on the ranch, died in Denver
eight years ago, after which the lonely
old man made his home with his only
sister, Mrs. Richard Pullman, until his
long continued illness made it neces-
sary to remove him to st. Anthony's.
His funeral took place Friday morning
from Logan Avenue chapel and was
attended by many of the pioneers. Bu-
rial was in Mount Calvary cemetery.

TEACHERS INSTITUTE
CLOSES ITS SESSION
Professor Suzzallo Blarnes
Early Training for the
Failures in Life

The third and last session Of the
annual institute of the teachers of the
city and county of San Francisco was
held yesterday afternoon in the AL
cazar theater with an attendance as
! large as those of the previous meet
ings. Superintendent Roncovieri in
troduced the speakers for the after
noon.
DR.. Henry Suzzallo spoke on The
Function of Expression in Education
The lecture was along the same lines
as his talk of Thursday afternoon, and
treated of the development and round
ing out of the emotional nature in the
child to make him grow into a well
balanced man. He dwelt at length
upon the methods of teaching chill
dren and placing the blame of unsuc-
cessful men and women upon unevenly
developed emotions and intellect
He was followed by Professor E. P.
Cub berly, professor of education at
Stanford university. Professor Cub
berly chose as his subject why Edu-
cation in America Is Difficult" He
compared the educational systems of
Europe and America, spoke of the uni
formity of the foreign system of edu-
| cation and the problem that America
has confronting it in the cosmopoli-
tanism of its citizens. THE problem
of education in this country is of Pc
culiar significance" said he. because
of foreign immigration. The difficulty
of the problem is to know how to make
good men and women out of the riff
raft of other nations; to show them
that each one in a republic like Ameri-
ca can carve his futuge and be master
OF his own fate"
Professor John Adams. professor of
education in the University of London.
then addressed the teachers in schol-
arly and scientific talk upon Ideas.
He spoke of teaching being the archi-
lecture of ideas and laid much stress
upon the activity of the childish mind.
1t was of much more Importance, he
claimed, to give the child good ideas
than to try to eradicate those already
possessed. He spoke of the mistakes
that children made and said that
teachers should be ashamed instead of
laughing at them, for it showed the
effect on the pupils of the teachers
ideas; that it was their fault If the
children answered wrong.
Superintendent Roncovieri then made
closing address in which he thanked
the speakers for their instructive and
entertaining talks; thanked the AL
cazar management for its courtesy In
extending the use of the theater and
hoped that the teachers would have a
pleasant and restful vacation.

WELL KNOWN RED MAN
IS REPORTED MISSING
Mother Fears Jefferson D.
Lee Has Met With
Foul Play

The police are searching the city
for Jefferson D. Lee, treasurer for the
Mission branch of the Red Men. The
young man disappeared mysteriously
last Thursday night while on his way
TO a meeting of his lodge, and because
of the fact that he had about 5000 and
valuable jewelry in his possession his
mother believes that he met with foul
play
Lee has been prominently connected
with the Red Men for several years.
His mother claims. that he never re-
mained away from home over night
before, and that when he left home
on Thursday night he informed her
that he would return before midnight.
The woman is frantic with grief over
the absence of her son and spent yes
terday searching for him. When night
fall came and she was unable to find
him she notified the police and detec-
tives were put to work on the case.
So far as is known, Lees affairs
were in good shape. He has always
borne a good reputation and, his
friends say, never drank nor gambled.
Besides the money he wore a hand
some gold watch and chain and dia-
mond pin and pearl ring. Lee is de-
scribed as being % years old, dark
hair and eyes, about feet inches in
height, and when last seen was wear
ing suit of dark gray clothes.

TEACHERS MUST WAIT
FOR JUNE SALARIES
Judge Seawell Issues Order
Restraining Board of
Education

Teachers in the San Francisco public
schools will have to wait for their June
salaries. Such is the meaning of n
restraining order issued yesterday by
Judge Seawell in response to the prayer
of suit begun by the Central trust
company as trustee of merchant credit
ors Of the school department to compel
Superintendent of Schools Roncovieri to
approve claims for merchandise and
to prevent the payment of the salaries
of teachers or janitors until all the
bills of merchants have reached tho
city auditor.
Under the law only one-twelfth of
the school money can be expended in
any one month of the fiscal year and
the merchants fear that the amount
now on hand and set apart for June,
the last month of the fiscal year, will
be used up in satisfying the demands of
teachers and janftors. The teachers
began suit last week to enjoin the
school department from paying the
merchants out of the teachers salary
fund. restraining order was granted
and the issue is now clearly Joined.
In the complaint filed yesterday the
plaintiff alleged that merchant credit
ors had performed services and de-
livered goods and had claims exceedin e
100000, which Superintendent Romeo
vieri in carrying out a conspiracy 70
hold back the claims of merchants re-
fuses to approve. If the conspiracy is
not checked, alleges the plaintiff, the
school funds will be depleted before
the merchants can get their claims TO
the auditor. Objection Is made to tbs
paying Of teachers salaries for S5 days
of the last fiscal year on which they
performed no work.
The principal claims of the mer-
chant creditors are as follows: C. T.
Weber & Co., $33.135.92; Schouten lum-
Der company. $23.S63.6S; L. Brizzolara
& Sons, $4,s75.o6: Philips & Van Orden.
$500; L. E. Clawson & Co.. $3,s334s;
Empire planning mill. $3,2939O; Grand
Rapids furniture company, $27S750;
San Francisco gas and electric COM
pany. $2,S49.SS; Taylor & Pritchard,
$1,0s2.90.
A temporary order restraining the
school board from using the teachers
salary fund for the payment of claims
other than those presented by teachers
is now in force. The suit begun yester-
day is in the nature Of a checkma .e
move. More than 1,100 defendants are
named, the list including not only the
superintendent of schools and the mem
bers of the board of education, but
every teacher, janitor and clerk in the
employ of the school department
The hearing on the order issued by
Judge Seawell was set for July IL.
