tion of Work Is Reached

Robert Beyrle, the contractor who :s
constructing the Seventh street bridge,
was formally notified by the board of
public works yesterday that he will not
be granted an extension of time to
finish his contract when the time limit
on his contract expires.
A protest signed by a number of
property owners on Seventh street and
in Boyle Heights was presented to the
board yesterday in which the slowness
of the contractor was condemned Sc
verely. This work was begun a year
ago last June, and the contractor ex-
poets to be through by Christmas. J.
e. Johnson, chief deputy city engineer,
told the board that Beyrle was no.
toriously slow on his contracts.

NIGHT SCHOOL
OPENS MONDAY
CHANCE FOR EDUCATION AT
POLYTECHNIC
LARGER CORPS OF TEACHERS
THAN EVER PROMISED
Sufficiently Broad Scope of Studies
Arranged for to Give All Who
Attend an Unusual
Opportunity

Monday September 13, the opening
day of all of the city schools, the Los
Angeles evening high school will begin
it's fourth year at the Polytechnic
high school building, Hope and Wash
ington streets. The hour of opening is
z o'clock for the first evening, and
after that the school will be in session
from 7:15 until 9:15 every school day.
This will enable persons to carry two
subjects an evening in most branches,
as the time is divided into two periods.
This does not apply to science, manual
work nor drawing, for in these sub
jects the entire evening will be devoted
to the one study.
Last term the school was run only
on a part-time basis, owing to short
age of funds but this year it is to be
on full time and with a corps of teach
ers larger than ever before. The pro-
gram that has been arranged is suf-
ficiently extensive and broad in scope
to enable almost anyone to find in
struction in some subjects to his taste.
The work, of course, is all of high
school grade, and no attempt is made
to offer special advanced work, nor,
on the other hand, to teach the things
that may be obtained in the evening
elementary schools.
No Children Admitted
While there are no entrance require
ments, candidates for admission are
supposed to have completed the gram
mar grades or their equivalent, and
pupils under IA will not be admitted.
In the other direction there is no age
limit, but a fee of $3.50 is charged
persons over 21 years of age. Other
oh cPhnn1 fS pntiFp-
ly free, except for small fees to cover
material used in a few of the science
courses.
The subject schedule is arranged on
a basis of either two or three nights
a week. and it has been found most
satisfactory for the majority OF pupils
to register for only two or three nights
week. This is due to the fact that
practically all of the students work in
the daytime, and hence, if they go to
school every evening, they have no
time for preparation nor recreation. NO
objection is made to persons register
ing for work every evening, II they
feel sure that they can carry 1t, and
the program is so arranged that they
can get it that way. Engllsn, spanish
stenography, typeWriting and book
keeping may be obtained either on the
Monday w Wednesday- Friday or the
Tuesday-Thursday basis
Schedule Of Studies
The following subjects are offered
only on Monday, Wednesday and Fri
day: Geometry, algebra, German, COM
mercial arithmetic, penmanship, chem
istry. electrical engineering, mechan-
| ical drawing, architectural drawing,
woodshop. machine shop and dress
making
On Tuesday and Thursday instruc-
| tions in the following subjects may be

overtime, but in most cases they work
under 8 hours. Therefore, we would
recommend that this be left to the
road supervisor. OF course if a man
should work only a half day he should
not receive a full days pay for the
said work. We think that the road
supervisor can fix that for these men.

SUPERVISORS CONSIDER
new RESPONSIBILITIES

A report of the ways and means
committee. also a letter from Mayor
Fern, introduced the matter of new
obligations with the revenue to meet
them to the Board of Supervisors last
night.
New salaries fixed by the Legisla-
ture with some to be fixed by the
Board will take $24,93O. Increases OF
salaries by statute make $29S0. For
Honolulu Jail all told the estimate is
| $35 900. Allowances for schools and
hospitals were not put down definite
ly in the report, further than to show
that the total of $62,91O under the
above heads taken from $105, 127, the
estimated increase of revenue, would
leave $42,217 to be apportioned be-
tween schools and hospitals The fig
ures are for the eighteen months be-
ginning July /, 1909.
On the committee recommendation
the matters of new services were re-
ferred to the appropriate committees
to make exact estimates thereon.
The Mayor quoted the president Of
the Board of Health as putting it up
/ to the Supervisors to employ city
physician and two sanitary inspectors.
! Chairman Logan of the ways and
means committee held that these
claims were not obligatory, and be-
sides that there would not be funds
to meet them. While the Legislature
amended the charter to give the Su-
pervisors power to perform the sani-
tation service and TO employ city
physician, it voted appropriations to
the Board of Health for the former
service and a lump sum for govern
ment physicians, but, in transferring
the school houses, jails, hospitals and
sanitation from the Territory to the
City and County of Honolulu and the
counties, together with the payment
of district magistrates, 1t gave them
additional revenue without any pre-
else calculation as to whether such
would be sufficient to cover the new
responsibilities. The inspector of
buildings, plumbing and house sewers

Shortly after the war he whipped the
