URGED IN SCHOOLS Value to Future Generation Set Forth at Home Industry League Luncheon Emphasizing the close connection that exists between vocational train ing: in the schools and success in the commercial world, several speakers representing the public school depart ment of San Francisco addressed the Home Industry League of California at the Palace hotel yesterday on the importance of a more extended system of trades education in this city and state. The occasion was the regular weekly luncheon of the league, to which had been invited Superintendent of Schools Alfred Roncovierl, Mrs. Mary Kincaid and Sarah Jones, school directors; Miss Eliza B. Keith, representing the teach ers, and Miss Olive Bedford Metlock, grand president of the Native Daugh ters of the Golden West. The general theme of the meeting was the develop ment of California's industries. In his opening address President A. C Rulofson of the league recommend ed that a study of the commercial resources of the state should be in cluded in the public school curriculum. Superintendent Roncovieri agreed, say ing that the board of education was ready to co-operate with the manu facturers, and that special textbooks dealing with the subject of Califor nia's industrial field probably would be available now that the free text book bill had been approved by the voters. Ronenvierl made a special plea for the manufacturers to aid in the move ment to found technical and voca tional schools. He cited Germany's example to the world along this line and declared that the trades school system of that nation, if applied here, would prepare boys and girls fof sound commercial careers. MIM Keith made an appeal for th» California holidays. against which many critics have raised a voice. She assured the manufacturers that their business would not suffer on account of California's playdays. Miss Jones, while appreciating the value of com mercial education, she said, told her hearers that culture should not be for gotten in the race for business ability. Miss Metlock outlined the steps that are being taken by the women of California, particularly the Native Daughters, to increase the demand for products manufactured in the state.

CITY MUST VACATE JEFFERSON SQUARE Park Board Orders Removal of Detention Hospital Build" ings Within Fortnight At the meeting of the board of park commissioners yesterday Secretary de Siicca was directed to notify the board of health and the health committee of the board of supervisors that unless the shack buildings in Jefferson square, used for a detention hospital, were not removed in 15 days they will be torn down by the superintendent of parks. This action was taken because of the fact that a condition of the grant of the square to the city is that if the ground is used for any other purpose other than a park the ground shall revert 'to the grantor. The hoard granted the Panama-Pa cific exposition committee the use of a limited portion of Lobns square for a limited period for exposition pur pOPf S. Mrs. K. H. O'Donnell. secretary of the Richmond Woman's club, in a com munication made a protest against the placing of a septic tank in the park for the benefit of the residents in frlie western end of the Richmond District. The matter was laid over for a week* STORM WATER STORAGE In his report Superintendent Mc- Laren says that in order to take care of the storm waters during the winter months it ifl necessary that the irri gating ditches be extended northerly from the stadium to the Fulton street line and westerly to the large hollow north vf the buffalo paddock, where a large quantity of water may be used to irrigate the forest trees growing in that vicinity. He recommended that a convenience station be erected in Lincoln park in the near future and one also be built in Alta plaza, the total cost not to ex ceed $1,200. # c These recommendations were ap proved. • In relation to work in the upper drive along the Great Highway, he says: "Have kept a force of 14 men and six scrapers at work during the entire month. The grading of about three-fourths of a mile of the distance will be finished early in November, when the hauling of rock for macad amizing will be commenced. To ma cadamize this distance 30 feet wide will require the hauling of 3.000 cubic yards of rock. This will be taken from the road leading up to the Cliff house, where moving this material will serve the double purpose of widening the road from the beach to the Cliff house and that of macadamizing the upper drive on the highway." The South of Civic Center Improve ment association asked that, as a flag staff has been erected in Columbia park, that the national emblem "may fly there from sunrise to euneet every day." The board decided that the flag float there on Sundays and holidays. RECKLESS DRIVING REPORTED The street committee of the Civic League of Improvement Clubs was given permission to appear before the board at its next meeting to discuss matters of great importance. The league complained that automobile drivers maintain a high rate of speed along the Great Highway and that, as there are no sidewalks, pedestrians are forced to use the road and are in constant danger of being run over by reckless drivers. It asked that the commissioners investigate this matter. The chief of police will be asked to have the speed ordinance strictly en forced. The California Driving club an nounced that the races scheduled for November 3 had to be postponed on account of the rain and the events will take place next Sunday. • T7, C.

Mason, traveling passenger agent of the Washington-Sunset route, were six and a half inches longer than they are. this story would never have been writ ten. Mason went to Coltervllle. a station on the Yosemlte valley route, a few days ago, to see a man living about four miles, from the line. He alighted early In the afternoon. Intending tc get back In time to catch the 6 o'clock train and return Swiftly to San Fran cisco. An oldest inhabitant told Mason | of a short cut to hie destination, and ] Mason, not knowing the ways of oldest j inhabitants, took It. After walking j 22 miles lie Concluded he was lost. Then it grew quite dark. Finally it grew darker, and Mason, after knock ing over several giant Sequoias and denting various cliffs by walking swiftly Into them, camped under a tree , for the night. The owls sang around him all night, and many coyotes, wolves, mountain lions, hears, man eat ing tigers and other forest folk formed a ring around and maintained a hungry vigil. Mason kept them away by shouting "Shool" at one minute Inter vals. The traveling passenger agent is back in town, but he never saw the man he went so far to see. It took him all next day to get back to the Btation by way of the "short cut." * * » Edgrar Blakely, advertising agent of ' the Western Pacific, has gone to Salt I Lake City and Ogden on a business trip. * # # Louie W. Hill has introduced a new fashion in encouraging better agricul tural methods along the line of the Great Northern. He has departed from the old practice of offering med als, etc., for the growing of prize products and is offering suits of clothes, hats, shoes, underwear, farm implements, etc. There are complete outfits for farmers of both sexea and the children have not been forgotten. To the boy growing the best potatoes goes a complete new outfit of clothing and the same for the girls. The adults have like awards. Best awards are for obtaining the largest results, but for the best pumpkin grown, etc., the prize will be a hat, pair of shoes or some thing similar. Hill says the boys respond to a new suit where the prospect of winning a medal would not wean them from fly ing kites or playing marbles. Hβ wants to Interest the boys in farming, so that they will keep at farming when thew grow up.

CHILEANS ATTACK SHIP'S OFFICER Riot Among Workers on Kosmos Steamer Halted by Mate With Belaying Pin What threatened t<. be a serious mu tiny occurred yesterday morning on board the Kcsmos liner Alexandria Jost a few hours before the German steamer arrived In San Francisco from Tacoma. At Valparaiso, on its way north, the Alexandria, as is the custom with all Kosmos eteftmers, shipped a Chilean crew to help in working cargo at the Central American ports. Two of these South Americans, G. Veloco and Caesar Avor.dano, ring lead ers in the mutiny, are now on the ship in irons and will be turned over to the Chilean authorities when the liner reaches Valparaiso. The mutineers persuaded the rest of their countrymen that they were being fed too little and worked too much. They supplied each of the malcontents with a knife and led a general attack on Second Officer Joseph Dender. Den der, however, was there with a real punch. His clothes were slashed, but he escaped other harm from the knives and did some real execution among his assailants with an iron belaying pin. Captain Schammert and the other of ficers, as well as the German crew, soon reinforced the second officer, and the Chileans threw down their knives and * fled. It was not a mutiny, Captain Scham mert suys. The Chileans had been aboard the ship several weeks and were merely homesick for a revolution, so they started one, the captain thinks.
