two years at the Lyceum Theatre. is
no doubt partially responsible for the
great interest which the theatregoers
OF this city are taking in the forth

DEvISES SPECIAL COURSE.
School System Made to Conform to
Mining Town Life.

To devise a course of study specially
applicable to a mining community with
a predominating foreign population was
the task assigned to E. E. Bach. en-
ployed as sociological superintendent"
by a collieries company in the Pennsyl-
vania mining region. according to infOr-
nation received at the United States bu-
reau of education.
Two mining camps. Ellsworth and
Cokeburg, were put under his care, with
Instructions to make the school system
in each locality center Of education and
Americanization.
Children in the mining camps ordinarily
leave school between the ages Of fourteen
and sixteen. having acquired little that is
of direct use to them in their life work.
Under Mr.. Bach the entire course of
study has been recast, to adapt 1t as
closely as possible to the conditions in
the community.
Elementary mining, first aid to the
injured" and business FORMS are intro
that the boys may be encouraged to re-
main in school If possible. or. il they
must leave, that they may have sOme-
thing to aid them in their future occu-
patton. Likewise the girls have been
provided with sp.endidly equipped domes-
tic science kitchens in charge Of a wom-
an specially trained for this work.
Even in the traditional school branches
every effort is made to correlate the
school work with the real life of the
pupils.

WILL BE PLENTY OF OYSTERS.
Several Vessels Expected to Arrive
Today.

While the supply of oysters aboard the
fleet of vessels lying at the oyster wharf
was rather small late yesterday even
ing. the dealers at the wharf market are
looking for the arrival of several of the
oyster running vessels early this MORN
ing. SO in all probability there will be a
good supply Of oysters on hand today,
and those who want them fresh shucked
or on the half shell will have no diff
Guilty in getting their wants supplied at
a moderate cost.
A dozen or more vessels of the oyster
running fleet are down the river loaded
and the wind of yesterday was favorable
for their coming to this city, so they
probably will be on hand before noon to-
day, when the oyster hungry crowd be-
gins to gather at the nth street wharf
Yesterday oysters were selling retail
at the wharf market at from 80 cents
to 50 cents per bushel, according to quail
ity. The fish dealers at the 18th street
wharf report the market overstocked, and
yesterday good table fish could have been
bought as low as 81 per barrel. less than
cent per pound. The dealers look FOL
an increase in price this week.

FRISCO MAYOR
IS SWORN IN
No Ceremonies Attended the Change

Taking Hold Of Work.

San Francisco, Cal, Jan. S.-James
Rolph, Jr., the worlds fair mayor,
whose task IL will be TO prepare this
city for the Panama-Pacfic interna.
tional exposition in 1915, took office
today, relieving y. NJ. Mccarthy, the
labor leader, who went into office two
years ago In a three.cornered fight for
office. Since that time the city char
ter has undergone radical change. All
municipal elections are non.partisan,
no party designations appearing on
the ballots; the direct primary system
allows unIy two candidates for any OF
flee at the actual elections and the
term of the mayor has been increased
to four years. Rolph was the first
mayor elected under the new system,
rolling up "a huge majority over Nc
Carthy, and he will serve throughout
the exposition year.
There were no ceremonies attending
the change OF administration. Rolph
and his board of supervisors, virtually
all of whom were known as "Rolph
men," during the campaign, plunged
without delay into the mass of work
that awaited them. Rolph declared in
his inaugural that it was to be bust
ness administration" and urged the
board to waste no time in preliminar-
les, but TO get to work.
Among the projects expected to be
completed under the new administra-
ton are the purchase of the municipal
water system, expansion of the mum.
cipal street railroad now under con
struction. establishment of civic
center. aud the construction of a city
