Pension System for Teachers.

A teachers pension system has been
created in Boston under authority of
an act passed by the recent ession of
the Massachusetts legislature. The
school committee is authorized to re-
tire with a pension of $3.50 year any
teacher or supervisor in the public
day schools who is mentally or physic-
ally incapacitated from further eff
cient service, provided such person
has attained the age of 65 years or
has been engaged in teaching or su-
pervising for period aggregating 80
years, 20 of which shall have been in
Boston.
There is at present a teachers re-
firing fund which gives $3.50 year to
all who have contributed to it, so that
a person qualified to retire will get a
pension of $3.50 year. The new fund
is to be raised by an annual assess.
ment of cents on every $1,000, and as
all the money thus raised in any one
year will not be required for that
year a sinking fund will be created
substantially guaranteeing all de
mands to be made on the pension
fund

him. Words cannot express the feel

TRAINS IN COLLISION
HORRIBLE ACCIDENT IN 0M-
LAND, CALIFORNIA.
Eight People Killed and Thirty Injured
Cars smashed to SpIiuters--
Smoking Car Passengers Pinned in
Wreckage, Crying for Help, Brought
Quick Aid From, All Sides.

Oakland, Cal, July 4.-The narrow
gauge local bound from the Alameda
mole into Oakland crashed into the
Santa Cruz train No. 81, bound for
the Oakland mole, at 7:10 tonight at
First and Webster streets, killing or
injuring all of the passengers in the
Santa Cruz train smoking car.
The collision was on the crossing
of the narrow gauge and main lines
opposite the Webster street bridge.
The engine of the Alameda train,
which was running with the tender
ahead, cut into the Santa Cruz train
smoking car about 10 feet from the
front. The front end was smashed
to splinters, the car being torn from
the front truck and the mass tossed
from the main line track up against
the signal tower in Webster street.
The wreck Of the coach, containing
its dead and its screaming wounded,
was hurled on its side, with the Ala
media local tender buried in the wreck
age. The baggage coach of the Santa
Cruz train, which was in front of the
smoker, was derailed and half way
upset. Both locomotives were de-
rallied.
When the trains struck the smoker
was cut from the coach following,
which continued on it's course, crash
ing into the boiler of the Alameda To-
connective. Some windows were
broken in this and the first Alameda
coach, which were also derailed. 9th
erwise they were not damaged. The
passengers in these coaches were
shaken up but not injured.
Practically all those in the smoker
were pinned in the wreckage and their
cries for help, which followed the ter
rife crash of the trains coming to-
gether, brought people rushing from
all sides. Some were able to dig them
selves out of the wreck, but the ma
jority had to be cut out. Several OF
the dead were badly crushed. The pc
lice and fire departments were called
out and were soon at work carrying
wounded and dead from the wreck.
The dead are: Sol Loeb CONNER
cial traveller, San Francisco; Leslie
Albree, San Francisco; Frank Lauzon
San Francisco; five others, as yet I'm
identified.

AnOusED DISMISSED.

Ada Kempsr and Richard Austin,
both colored, we're srrsigned yesterday
before United States Commissioner X.
p. w. Garrett on the charge OF selling
LIQUOR In alexandria county without
having procured government license.
The accused we're dismissed IS no posi-
tive evidence against them could be
secured. Commissioner Garrett, ike
all others who have attempted to obtain
positive evidence from negroes, Is ex-
periencing difficulIies. He has reason
10 believe that a combination exists
among some of this class to say nothing
that would tend to convict parties against
whom certain charges are brought. The
commissioner, however, says that he
has abundant evidence that negroes
have been buying beer at 8 certain place
in the county and that In due time
conviction will follow.
