KIRMESS TICKETS
ON SALE TODAY
Box Office VIII Open for Sea-
son Tickets at 9 o'clock
This Morning

The last week of practice for the kir-
mess has begun and merrily the differ
ent dances are in swing in preparation
for the initial performances behind the
footlights of the Central theater next
Monday. Today the tickets will be
placed on sale, the box Office at Sher-
man, Clay & Co.'S in Kearny street
opening at 9 O'Clock for the season
tickets and tomorrow morning at the
same hour for the single seats.
Some of the rehearsals today also
will take place on the Central theater
stage and the needed touch of bril-
liancy viii be. given to the different
dances by the costumes of variegated
hue. ranging from Hungarian to Span
ish and from stately DANES to mechan-
ical dolls. Many and new and intri-
cate are the different steps, but the
young persons who form the various
groups have thrown themselves heart
and soul into the Cause of the sweet
charity they champion and have mas
tered each graceful dance with almost
the skill of professionals
MISS Edith Metcalfe whose skill al
the art Is already well known, will be
seen in solo role. Miss Kathleen de
Young and Charles de Young will
dance the solo part to the Hungarian
revel; Miss Marie Brewer and Miss
Elena Brewer with tambourine and
song will do a delightful Spanish dance
and there are other equally interesting
separate features, as we'll as the regu-
lation series of dancing groups. And
besides the music, the song and the
dancing there will be many attractive
side novelties, with maideHs. appropri-
ately garbed, presiding behind lemon
ade booth or cake counter or bearing
around on dainty trays their burden OF
candies or flowers. And back of il all
will loom the great charities for which
1t all stands-the San Francisco ma
ternity home and the children's hos
pital, with the Little Jim ward and its
numbers of pathetic little incurables
1t is the thought of the sunshine to be
brought into so many little lives that
has urged on the performance and
aroused again SO much of San Fran
ciscos dormant stage talent. The
workers have thrown themselves heart
and soul into the movement and are
giving of their best, and 1t is expected
that by the end of next week their en-
deavors will be rewarded by a sum OF
goodly size to aid the two. splendid
causes.

Bullock has for several weeks been
openly supporting Swart Apprised Of
this. the republican county central
committee is preparing documentary
proof to present at IT'S next meeting
Friday 10 remove Bullock as a member.
The revelations Of graft have focused
the attention Of the voters on this con-
test. Green's interview in Fridays
Cali has been universally commended.
and no question exists in the minds of
the voters as to where he stands. He
was the only candidate before the
primaries who openly defied the ring
and declared he would change the con-
ditions existing in San Mateo County if

CHILDREN TO WORK
FOR FAIR At POLLS
Twenty Thousand Public School
Pupils to Plead the Cause
of Amendments

Twenty thousand school children of
San Francisco yesterday received their
first instructions in arguments cham
pioning the cause of this city as the
site for the Panama-Pacife interna-
tional exposition and the necessity of
carving by an overwhelming vote the
exposition senate and assembly amend
ments Nos. 50 and 33 respectively at
the polls November s.
1t was exposition day at the schools
and inaugurated a practice that will be
made part of the daily studies in many
of the schools until the amendments
come up to be voted on. The children
will be drilled and grounded in the
subject and urged to go forth and do
politics" for the exposition.
On election day they will be prepared
to meet all arguments and assigned to
voting booths TO remind voters to cast
a ballot in favor of the exposition. The
boys have taken to the new course of
study readily and the game promises to
oyershadoW the mania for election
cards.
All political parties have Joined in
urging the voters of the state to vote
for the two amendments which will put
San Francisco in the position of build
ing an exposition without expense to
the government Senate amendment
No. So and assembly amendment No. 33
will give this city a great I'D in the
exposition fight.
1t is the custom of voters in mark
ing a ballot to vote for the candidates
first and then take a quick look over
the amendments These usually pre-
sent such a formidable front of printed
matter that they are overlooked. The
exposition committee will try to have
oil 1od of q Il re
before entering the booth.
C. B. Leomis, a prominent manufae-
turer of Chicago staying at the St.
Francis hotel is a supporter of San
Francisco as the fair site.
San Francisco deserves the exposi-
tion and will undoubtedly get it," he
said. New Orleans is making strong
campaign through the east for the
exposition, so the people in California
must understand that they have plenty
to do.
Among my personal friends there
seems to be a strong sentiment for this
city, and l think l am safe In saying
that the greater portion of the people
of the east favor San Francisco"
A hearty Endorsement of this city was
wired by the directors of the Kansas
City. Mexico and Orient railroad, in
session at Wichita, which reads as fol-
lows:
We send sincere congratulations
and best wishes for the grand sue
cess of the enterprise and join in
hearty approval of San Francisco as
the place of all places for the hold
ing of the International exposition
in 1915.
Something of the weight of this in
dorsement can be gathered from the
names of the officials of this new rail
road. which include r. w. Roebling,
George Crocker. E. E. Holmes, H. b.
Easterbrook, f. Dickenson. "A, f. Still
