Special to Tho Herald.
X OCEAN PARK, Sept. 25.--The annual
election of officers of the Crescent Bay
Woman's club will be held tomorrow at

PASADENA, Sept. 25.--With three new
schools in commission this year and re-
arrangement of others 1t has been seri-
GUS problem to accommodate the students
already enrolled, and It is expected that
some pupils will be unable to gain. adj
mission this winter when the city fills up.
The fourth and fifth grades are the most
crowded, 1t being necessary to devote two
rooms TO the same grade in several of
the schools. AS much as possible con-
gestion has been relieved by transferring
pupils living midway between two schools
to the one least crowded. This some
times necessitates long walk for the
children. Two boys living near the east
ern city limits, and in the new Grant dis
trict, could not obtain admission there,
nor at the Columbia school, which was
the next nearest, and had to go to the
Madison school, which is more than a
mile distant from their homes.
Superintendent A. L. Hamilton declares
the urgent need of at least. two new
schools, if not three, for the next school
year, the northeast and northwest dis
trtcts each being badly in need of another
building to accommodate the fast grow
ing outlying parts OF the city. In the
southeast, beyond the new Grant and
Mckinley schools, thinks another
building should be begun soon. The kin
dergartens and upper grades do not pre-
sent the same problem, there being at
present sufficient room for them, though
nearly all Of the teachers are putting in
full periods every day. There is not an
instructor at high school who does not
put in six periods day in the class room,
, which is very strenuous pace to main
tain through the school year.
At high school the students have been
put in four sections, meeting in chapel
only once a week for each section, unless
for some special event on Friday, which
is left OPEN
Enrolment at high school has consid-
erably increased since opening day, and
high water mark has not yet been
reached. Under the present arrangements
affairs in the various schools are moving
smoothly, and were it not for the crowded
condition little trouble would be expert
enced.

believes the Seaside Water company and
the Long Beach Bath House company
who own and control the present bath
house here, are back of the opposition
which the new project is meeting.
while the city council has already
leased Bond the ground for his bath
house, objections are now expressed TO
thte bulkheading and foundation work
which will be necessary if the establish
inent is put up. The war department has
postponed a public hearing on the pro-
Jest because Of these objections. Mr..
Bond desires to have his bath house COM
pleted before the opening of the next
summer season.
The Seaside Water company formerly
owned all the beach property between
Alamitos avenue on the east and Golden

the exception OF that portion still re-
tanned by the company, with the agree
ment inserted in each deed that no bath
house could be built or maintained upon
any part OF the property.

PASADENA, Sept. 25.-The case of l..
A Packard. who resides in Los Angeles,
was tried in Judge MacDonald's court
this morning and the defendant found
guilty of battery. He was sentenced to
nav a fine of $685. Packard became en-
gagged in an alteration two weeks ago at
the home of j. B. Meyers, at which place
he was plying his vocation of book agent,
and according to the testimony of the
prosecution was too insistent and used
unbecoming language. Packard claims
that he was elected from the premises
by the combined efforts of Meyers, his
son and his foreman, A. v. Garfield. and
in the scramble that resulted he used
his fists in an exchange of blows. Ser
geant Pierce acted In the dual capacity OF
bailiff and witness, which demanded his
presence and his absence from the court
room at the same time. He was finally
excluded until called to the witness stand.
Counter complaints of disturbing the
peace made by both parties to the alter
cation were dismissed.

p%endicular shaft has been sunk on a con-

crosscuts are extended-one to the east
and one to the west. In the west cross
cut about rs feet from the shaft a huge
vein of tale has been cut through and
followed some distance in a drift along
its course. Assays from this vein from
average samples taken entirely across
the vein show thai it carries milling
values, but is not aluable noug to
ship. From the east crosscut a drift is
being run to the north along the con-
tact.
With depth it is probable that better
values will be disclosed. The company
has awarded A. Egenes a contract to
deepen the shaft to the 200-foot level.
Mr.. Egenes was engaged this week in
hauling tools and supplies to the prop
