SQUIRRELS ARE KILLED
IN WAR AGAINST PLAGUE
Marine Hospital Service Extermi-
mating the Bubonic Infection
in California.

with bubonic plague infection in Cali
fornia is being pushed by the marine
hospital service. A report on the work
up to date has just been received from
Passed Assistant Surgeon Mccoy at San
Francisco. He says that the squirrel
work is now regarded as more important
than the rat work. 1t is thought that
the fleas carrying the plague infection
were brought by rail from San Francisco
to Los Angeles. One infected squirrel
was found there near the railroad yards,
and as there were 1900 squirrels ex-
amined and no other case OF infection
was found it is assumed that the in
fected squirrel was imported.

Figures Are Given.

There have been a total of 3d. $50 squir-
reis examined since the work was begun
There have been 331 infected squirrels
found. The largest number of these were
in Alameda and Contra Costa counties
o42 in the latter and 70 in the former.
The work Of squirrel determination is
being pushed, the state spending $1,000
mon. nly in wages and the federal gov
eminent spending $1,000. The hunters
have worked both with bisulphide of car
hon and with poison. The former is
the more expensive. costing 80 cents per
acre for material and 81 for labor. The
latter is much cheaper and about as
effective, but has the disadvantage of
killing birds.
AS there are about five and a quarter
million acres in the infected region, the
total cost will be heavy if the work is
carried through.

THE SCHOOL BOARD MET
Business of City Schools Was Trans
acted-SchooIs Are In SpIen-
did Condition.

The school board met last evening
at the Board of Trade rooms, to trans
act the regular business for the city
schools. There were present: Trus-
tees F. c. Eason, c. A Sterne, C. F.
McWhorter, w. NJ Hamilton, Super
intendent Walker King and Principal
R. D. Bryan.
\ After the reading and approving of
the minutes of the previous meeting a
report was heard from the superin-
tendent, covering period of six
weeks. The enrolment was shown to
be 1889, of whom 1,275 are white.
The enrolment is about one hundred
more than at the same time last ses-
sion The increase would undoubted-
" iS much greater but from the fact
that the crowded condition of the
schools has precluded the admittance
of many pay pupils that were hereto
fore admitted. AS a consequence at
least three private schools have
sprung up and are flourishing, on chill
dren that otherwise would be in the
city schools.
Secretary Sterne made report for
the treasurer, showing the financial
condition as satisfactory.
Other committee reports were
heard.
Bills and accounts that had been
properly o. KID were ordered paid.
Communications were also read and
acted upon.
Superintendent King and Principal
Bryan of the Second Ward school
made report on the badly crowded
condition of that school, with recon-
mendations that additional room be
provided.
The committees on buildings and
grounds and supplies were instructed
to make the necessary arrangements
to relieve the situation. This one
feature of the schools is a matter of
much concern to the trustees, teach
ers and others interested, and relief
must come soon through additional
buildings. Never, perhaps, in the
history of the schools was more room
needed as now. Many of the rooms
in the different buildings are so over
crowded that the best work cnanot be
accomplished, and the work of the
school is carried on to great disad-
vantage.
The question has been brought up
as to the right of the trustees to au
thorize the purchase of auxiliary read
ers, etc, for the advancement of the
children. The following opinion from
the attorney general of the state set
ties the matter, and sustains the trus-
tees and Superintendent King in eff
forts to give the children additional
reading matter. and thus give new
interest and broader scope to the
work of the schools:
'The trustees of the schools of the
state have a right to adopt any text
book they may see proper to adopt
as supplementary books, supplement-
ing those prescribed by the state text
book board"
