4 SCHOOL MATTERS. Written Charges Against Miss Peltret. AN INQUIRY TO BE HELD. New Boundary Lines Are Agreed Upon for the Webster Primary School District. Directors Burke and Ames and Superin tendent JSwett, comprising the special committee of the Board of Education, have agreed upon the boundary lines of the Webster Primary School. At the next session of the Board of Education the report will be submitted by the Classifica tion Committee, and in all probability adopted. By this districting the school will lose about 250 pupils, which means the consolidation of five more teachers. The written charges made by Mrs. Mann, principal of the Hawtborne Prim ary School, against Miss Peltrot, bave been tiled with tho secretary of the Board of Education. Following is a copy: To the Hon. Board of Education, etc.—Gen ii.imin; On tue lSin day of July. 1893, I appealed before ibe Classification Committee of your honorable board, being constiaiued theieto by my duty as principal of the Haw thorne Primary School, and made a statement concerning Miss Mary Peltret, thfn a teacher of a first-grade class In said school, which state ment Is In substance hereinafter set forth. Upon that statement I asked thai appropriate action be taken In the pi< inisen, and accordiug- IS an order was Issued directing Miss Peltret lo report to the secretary of your iionoiabl - board. lam now informed mat Miss Peltret deques an Investigation as to tlie fairness and truth of my report, and I have been notified by the president of your honorable board that the oral statement* made by me before the Classifies tion Committee must be set form In writing. Pursuant to such notification aud direction, I therefore, as principal of the Hawthorne Pri mary School, hereby set forth in writing the following charges, heretofore orally staled by me as aforesaid: First— That since about the Ist day of Octo ber, 1892, Miss Peltier has exhibited bigus of nervous and mental weakness and lack of en durance to an extent unfitting her for the care of a class, especially a class of young children. Second— That since saia Ist day of October, 1892, Miss Peltret has failed to observe the requisite discipline and order in her classroom and in the yard when under her charge. Third— Th;it since about the said Ist day of October. 1892, Miss Peltier has exhibited a lack of judgment about scuoolwoik. Fourth— Thai since the Ist day of January, 3 893, complaints have been made by pareuts la me respecting Miss Peltret's nervousness, lack of discipline and lack of judgment, and since the conmiei'Cem ni of the school year on July 10, 1898, several complaints of this uature cave been made. I am now and at all times have been re. My to substantiate the allegations made by me to the Classification Committee. Tlie delay has not been of my seeking, but, en the contrary, I was led to believe the Miss Pell ret did not de sire an investigation. At any time that may be appointed by the board, or any committee thereof. I am ready to appear with witnesses to prove these charges. In conclusion I ties leave to state that 1 re gret exceedingly that my duty as principal of the Hawthorne Primary School requires me to make these complaints agalu>( Miss Telnet; that I have hoped from time to time that -lie would Improve, and particularly that the recent vacation would serve to restoie her to health and capacity, but that 1 am reluctan ly c in pelled to conclude thai Mi-s Peltrei was on lie 18th day of Ju v, 1893, for i he reasons v fore suited, disqualified lo take charge of and t<*HCl) a class in ibe public schools of this city, Fut thermore, that the foregoing is here set forth In good faith and full belle/ in its truth and not from any motives of malice or unkinduess toward Miss Peitret. Very respectfully sub mitted, 8. .1. Mann. Principal Hawthorne Primary School. The hearing will probably be held next Monday. Director llost-wald, chairman of the Committee, on Qualification <>[ Teachers, is in favor of perimUins re porters to be present, bu; siys that he bIihII have to consult the wishes of she at torney:*.

All Ships Will Display the Bunting. The Wreck of the Bowden Still In tact—Prominent People Arrive From the Orient. Obedient to the requpgt from the Mid winter Fair Commi~ri"n, rinpf Wharfinger Boobar yesterday m.tilied all wharfingers to request the shipping at the various wharves to fly their colors to-day In honor of breaking ground for the great exhibi tion. Every skipper who was seen promised to decorate his ship. In the afternoon Assistant Putnam took the Ui£ Governor Perkins and visited all the vessels in the stream with the same re ouest, and iv each case received favorable resDonse. OcPHSion seldom arises whnn foreign aud American shipping display their bunt ing at the same time, and as there are a number of English merchantmen in port the harbor today will present a line ap jiearniice. Captain Lneie of the British ship Queen Virtorta has written to this city that he sighted the wrecked ship liowden, May 4. on a reef on Oneo Islands, near Pit cairn Island. Hd lowered a boat and boarded her, and found, t<> all appear ances, that she was entirely sound; no water in her hold and not strained. Jler standing rigging and sails were uone aud the cabin littiuKS at.d provisions bad been removed. As the distance to the wreck is only 5000 niile«, aDa as part of her cargo of 62,000 centals of wheat can be save<i, perhaps some enterprising steamship or lug owner will attempt the speculation of towing her to tliß nearest port. Ainon^ the passengers by the Pacific Mail steamship City of Peking, which ar rived from Ilong-Knng via Honolulu, were: E. W. Roper, a wealthy New Zealand mer chant of literary proclivities, who is mak ing a tour of the world; Major A. F. A. Lyle, U. S. A., the inventor of he Lylf life-saving gun; Rev. J. If. McKie, who lias served for fifteen years as a mission ary in North China, and returns brnken in health to seek restoration Mnootj the mountains of Colorado; Colonel W. H. Hallott of the British army; Lieutenant yon der Austen of the German navy; Lieu tenant Camnbell Coffin of f •< rlojral lirit ish engineers; Lieutenant Eim-eidH, Lieu tenant Z'nrofT and Dr. Gnubor. from the wrecked Bunsian man-of-war Vitiaz, and Airs. A. M. Drennan, a Japanese mission ary, who brings as maid cue of the natives, from whom Gilbert must have taken his model for Pittl Sing. H. A. White, who has been serving as a spotter for the Southern Paeifia on the Davie ferries, was arrested yesterday for carrying a weapon concealed, but released on his own recognizance. Captain Lowrv succeeds Captain Roberts in command of the San Jaclnto. The steam schooner Scotia is on Mer chants' drydock receiving a new rudder Btof-k and general repairs. The United State* steamer Alert left Honolulu on the 15th for Sao Francisco, with a number of invalids and term sailors. It is reported that several deserters from the Second Artillery. N. G. C, in camp at Eureka, Ilumboldt County, have returned on Inmhei schooners, complaining that the weather was too cold. Captain Luzzarevich lias been appointed master cf tli« sciioom r Del Ni.rte, vice Captain Wagner, who was killed by v fall at Whalem River four weeks ago. Captain li. J. Battels was registered yesterdfly at the Custom-house as master and sole owner of the sealing schooner Achilles, which furnished a short-lived sensation last monih by beiug advertised as stolen by tho skipper. On March 25 last there appeared in the Liverpool (Encland) papers, in the obitu ary column, a notice of tbe death of Mrs. Lizzie Gsinson, wife of Capta n John Gun son of the ship Dunsyre, with the appen dix, "San Francisco papers please copy." When the Dun^vre arrived here on Mon day Captain Gun^on receivpd the sad intelligence that his wi:e died ten days after his vessel left Newcastle, England. No British shipmaster visiting this port is better known than Captain Uuoson or "Uncle John," as he is familiarly called. He came here first in 186% and his first vis t as master was in 1871. Since then he has sailed here almost continuously, and no shipmaster comiDg to tnls port has more popularity and respect. Mrs. Gutison accompanied him here on three voyajres. ON THE RIGHT SCENT. lodoform as a Detector of Crime— A Burglar Arrested. James Johnson, alias James McMullen, is in the tanks at the City Prison, pending an investigation whieb may result in a charge of burglary being entered agaiust him. Johnson had been living for some time iv the lodging-house kept by Mrs. Molloy, 617 Bryant street. Mrs. liortee. one of the roomers, has been absent iv the country for a few days, and her room was kept locked. On Tuesday momma Mrs. Moiloy found tho door ajar, »ad on enter ing discovered that her roomer's trunks had beeu opened, bureau drawers ransacked and articles of wearing apparel mid ornaments scattered over the door. Two silk dresses, a seaiskin sack and various other articles had been stolen. Mis. Molloy detected a strong smell of lodoform in the room, and as Johnson had his hand crushed recently and had it dressed with the drug her suspicions Ml upon him. She reported the matter to the police and a search was stade for the stolen clothing in the pawnshops, but without success. It was learned, however, that a young man with one of his band* in a sliti? had been endeavoring to dispose of the articles described. When Johnson wa« arrested none of the stolen articles were found upon him. It is believed that Johnson had a con federate, as it would have been impossible for him with bil injured hand to have forced tho door open. The police are searching for the other man, and when they find him they expect to find the stolen goods also. THEY FIND WORK. A Labor Bureau to Help Needy Women. Daughters of the Good Shepherd Would Be Glad of ? Second- Hand Clothing Store. "Thpy tell me that the ladies hero help poor people get work. 1 thought you mieht Cnd some for me." The speaker was a pretty timid-looking girl, whose d;irK ey*-! diluted with a:;.\ - i» - ;y as she made thW request of Mrs. Thenll at the headquarters of the Jhuitfii ters of the Good Shepherd, <vi 2 Eddy sreet, yesterday. "This girl is only one of dozens wbo haw applied v\ithinthe last wei-k," said >;■-. Theall in an nside to a Cam. reporter, w h o happened to be present. "'What can you do?" she added aloud. "Almost anything, madam, in the way of boosework," replied th<* girl, losing ■ little of her anxious worried look in re -pon!<e to the kindness of tonp. "I would n"t recommend myself as a finished conk, but I would work my fincprs to the boue to eive my children food." "How many children have you?" wns asked. "You look too young to be mar ried." "1 was foolish and married at 16. We have three little tots. Tne eldest is only just tour." And then the gir! told her pathetic ) ittl« story Quietly and eagerly when *he was once started. ".My husband lias tried to ge; wori;. but has failed. Tiio landlady is nearly as i oor as we are, and if it wore not for the kindues* of the lady at the bakerr the children would be hun gry. This morning Ihere was not a 5-cent piece in the house. Indeed, my husband wants work. He is going Into the country to-morrow to look for it." "I ran get you a place as nurse," said Mrs. Theall. "That would bo fine," replied the little woniau brightening. "I love my own children so much that I would be good to others. And I mlsht teach a little," she added tin 1 idly. "My parents were well to do and 1 studied the piano and learned good English." "You would get about S2O a month, and they would txke good care of your chil dren at the Girls' Directory for SlO." "And the rest might co to pay the land- Sad v ; she has b en so Rood." "How about your own clothes?" inter rupted Mrs. Ti.eal!. "Let mi look at your shoes. I thought so.' There! 1 can do better for you tlian that," and she brought out a pair of new shoe?, adding to the reporter: "The eirls all have their feet on the ground when they come for work. Two days a^o one of. our ladies bought a lot of shoes. This is the last pair left." "They are too narrow, madam," said the girl, sadly. "You ran change them at the shne maker's." was the rpply, and, as the >{irl still hesitated, Mrs. Theall adied, with a smile, "I think we. can find s:ockiug3 lor you, too." "Do you give to them all like that?" asked the reporter, when the woman had Kone on her way rejoicing in the prospect of speedy wort and a good home for her children. "I tell you, the Daughters of the Good Shepherd do not often know the luxury of a spring honnet or a new gown," replied the president of the order, laughing. "We did not realize what we were going In fur when we began this thing, and we will be In thepoorhouse before we are through. "The fact is we are flooded with appli cations for work Jroru women, often re lined and educated, like the one you have just seen. We have helped some and can not refuse to help others, besides when we get work for them hey generally give sat isfaction. But 1 tell you it l-> pretty hard to get along, for we have no outside help. Some of our ladies only stop short of giv ing away the very clothes off their backs." "Do you as* any tees for finding work ?" "None whatever. Everything is free with us, and our only income is our own pockets." The Daughters of the Gnod Shepherd have been doing excellent work lately in aiding the numerous unemployed women of San Francisco to obtain work. It is also part of their mission to visit the pris ons and hospitals, and not a few of the sick in the wards and the convicts in their cells look forward to the visits of the "Daughters" as the one ray of sunshine in their dreary lives. Didn't know Where to Find 'Em. Fannie K. Chamberlain, administratrix of the estate of R. A. Chamberlain, de ceased, has filed suit in the Superior Court againsi Supervisor .7. G. James and W. 11. Hill to recover 5">5,000, value of sheep, hogs, horses, buggies, etc. These formed part of the estate, and the complaint states that they were in the possession of th« defendants who have failed to give any accounting or compensate th« administra trix for the value of the property. The amount sued for is stated to be the value of the missing stock. Homestead farmers in this country earn 8 per cent of the total earnings of the nntinn, and their farms ami Mock repre sent 7 per cent of the national wealth, THE MORNING CALL, SAN FRANCISCO, THURSDAY, AUGUST 24, 1593. THERE IS NO WILL. Fred B. Chester's Petition Is Denied. THE WIDOW GETS HER SHARE Judge Levy Decides That J. F. Tur ner and Lizzie O'Donnell, His Clerk, Were Mistaken. Judge Levy delivered his long-expected opinion yesterday in the matter of the petition of Frederick B. Chester to hav^ admitted to probate the alleged lost will of bit deceased father, Kiiwin S. Chester. E. S. Chester died a little over two years ago, and no will was ever found. Letters of administration were granted to A. Everett Ball, and th» estate, valued at somewhere near £100,000. has been ad ministered by him up to the present date. A short while ago Frederick Chester came forward with a story of a will which he could prove that his father made, and which he maintained had been lost or stolen. Ills chief witnesses were J. F. Turner and his clerk. Miss Lizzie O'Dfmnell, who swore that they saw tin* will in Chester's tin box on the day of his death, and if this statement was true the decision would have to go to the petitioner, as A. K. Bol ton, the attorney, proved the execution of a will some months previous to Chester's death, and recited its content*. Chester was a helpless invalid lor some months before his death, but his widow testified that he spoke of Ibis will atiu said that he had destroyed it. Judge Levy, in delivering hts decision yesterday, admitted that it was clearly shown that a will executed by Chester i iiri> existed, and he stated that "one Turner and a lady nameil O'Donnell" swore to having seen it. on the day :>f Chester's death, in a box in Chester's office. But it was very remarkable that two ve;u- stLio letter- o! administration were t; m:■ • <■.! to Ball, and it was no I until two years after that that Chester brought forward these witnesses to prove the ex istence of a will. "The fact is,*' said the Judy •." "it was not until it was found ih tl Turner had some notes in this desk on which he owed money and which had disappeared thai this story of the I at will cropped up. And it was not until Turner had l>#en sued fur the amount" — same $24,000 — 'Mile on these notes that lie c. imp forward anil gave this testimony, together with an almost verba tim report of the contents ol the will. The testimony 1- entirely Inconsistent with the facts and circumstances sur rounding the case, and I must conclude thai both Turner ami Miss O'Donuell were 'entirely mistaken.' " ■ lhe Judge went on to describe how that Chester, who was married three time?, left two children, one by a first wife, an ntlier by an ex-wite, and a widow who nad cared for him almost ,-i- an inns* for ton long years. 'Chester having come to the coast a broken down Invalid. Under ills "pretended" will the widow who hud cireii for him so long was only to receive SI-j a month, while the residue of the estate was tog> to the son, the daugl :• r beiiiß left entirely in ibe cola. Such a will would be very unjust Acaiii*t the testimony of Turner and Miss O'Donnell was that of the widow, now Mrs. lluberi*. who testified that Cheater, in a fit of remorse, told iier of this unjust will, and added that he had destroyed it. Every Beaten was made, immediately after me <!»;> tt; of Chester, but no will was found; and la i-ueii cases the presumption ways t; •■ken was either that no will existed, or that, if there was one, it had be«n destroyed by 'lit. deceased himself. In conclusion Jndtre L vy said: "In cases ■>i this kind where a lost will is .-oiiL'iit to li ■ established treat care and judgment must be exercised by the court in accepting testimony, and tn-re I find tlidt tlie evidence is neither dear nor posi tive. Judgment, therefore, will be entered against ilia [lotitiouer." v > the e^tato will b" ailininistprrd by Ball as befoie acd distrihuted between the widow, son ami daughter hi equal shares, LI r* hpirm no community properly. _^ XOTICK Oi .i,i >.-.
