THE BRIDWELL DEFENSE ;

II had been announced that Mr.. Bird

the Board of Education of this city.
who has been under such serious
charges for some time past, would be-
gin his defense on Tuesday night be-
fore the Board. 1t would be pretty
hard, however. to really construe the
developments of that night as any de-
fcnsc of Bridwell On the contrary, it
seems to be far more in the nature
of dragging in certain members of the
board TO condemnation than anything
that could in the least be construed as
n defense OF Bridwell.
The developments OF the night gave
the lie direct 10 Mr.. Giauque. Of the
Board. where he had claimed that the
employment Of his son as a janitor
was against his will But so far from
it having been against his will. it ap-
pears that Mr.. Giauque was not even
willing 10 let his son resign whom the
incompetence of that son az janitor had
been fully demonstrated. The resigna-
tion was submitted and was before the
committee, but was withdrawn by Mr..
Giauque himself. IT appears, further,
by the testimony Of Mr. Thomas, Of
the Board. that Bridwell told him that
he regarded young Giauque as poor
janitor, and incompetent This in
terested Mr.. Giauque so much that
BridwclI hastily went over to his side
and entered into an explanation and
denial. And as the men separated for
the night Bridwell was heard TO say
10 Mr.. Giauquc, 81 never made any
such statement to Mr.. Thomas This,
however, did not appear TO convince
Mr.. Giauque who replied, "l'll see
YOU later about that And thus the
matter rests, so far as that point is
concerned; very much 10 the damage,
as it seems now, both of Mr.. Bridwell
and of Mr. Giauque. A queer turn, in
deed. for the q defense - TO take.
There was narrow escape, also,
from bringing Mr.. Martin. also OF the
Board. under condemnation in this re-
markable "defcnse' of Bridwell. When

sufficiently heated and that school had
been forced to adjourn in some Of them
because they were so cold. the intima-
| ton was made that il was not Mr..
/ Giauque' S son that was at fault so
much as the poorncss of the coal sup
piled. But as Mr.. Martin is supply

among the members of the board In

which he oversees. And 30 Martin es-
capped this time, but Gisuque WAS
brought into it right up 10 his neck.
This manner of 'defenso' Of Mr..
Bridwcll is certainly interesting to the
public. We trust that il may be sue

years. This tobacco trust maintains
and controls the market for tobacco and
fixes the prices on the different grades,
not only for this country but for the

its own way, it can easily be inferred
that the tobacco trust is no loser. In
fact, it is one of the enormous trusts
of the country, cnriching its officers
and stockholders beyond even the usual

NEW OFFICES OF A
GREAT NEWSPAPER

On Monday, May 81, the San Fran
cisco Evening Globe was installed in
it's new quarters in the Bancroft build
ing, 727 Market street, above Third,
thereby becoming permanently identi-
fed with that busiest section of the
downtown district known as "News-
paper Row."
The new offices and department ac-
.commodations of the Globe are more
.commodious than those of any of the
big San Francisco newspapers.
On entering at the Market street
front one is ushered into a large lob
by, fitted up with easy chairs and set
tees, with tables containing files of the
various papers, while on the left an
information bureau, equipped with lit
~erature relating to every section of the
state, its agricultural and mineral re-
sources, educational and scenic ad.

San Francisco and what cars or boats
to take. There is also a telephone
booth for the accommodation of the
public.
This innovation in newspaper office
equipment, which exists nowhere else
on the coast, will be welcomed by visit
ors to the city.
The intention of the Globe manage
ment is to make visitors from interior
points feel that they are welcome am
have a place to go where reliable in
formation will be cheerfully given free
of all expense.
