I J 1MBMIH WMH' " ' , IH , MIIW -ij Sends Circular To The Teachers The following circular dealing with the school situation and of interest to teachers has been sent out by the Board of Education of the city and county of San Francisco. To Principals and Teachers-Ladies and Gentlemen: First It is evident that the cal amity which has overwhelmed San Francisco will greatly reduce its municipal revenues for the next fiscal year,beginning July 1.190G. Therefore every department of public service will ,be obliged to curtail operating expenses. It is expected that the appropriation for public instruction will be greatly reduced for the ensil ing year. This condition will neces sitate the most stringent economy. It is therefore suggested that as many teachers as possible secure em ployment elsewhere on leaves of ab sence from this department, which will be granted by the Board of Edu cation without in the least jeopardiz ing their connection with the San Francisco School Department. Second All teachers who have not made out monthly and annual reports should put themselves in comiuinica tion with their principals and do so at once. Third All teachers are requested to keep this office x informed of changes in address. Fourth The following announce ment has been received from Presi dent Dailey of the San Jose Normal School. "The San Jose Normal School will hold no summer session this year. The recent earthquake has damaged our main building so badly that it cannot be occupied. The architects estimate that it will require $i'.),000 to make the necessary repairs, and that it will take three or four months to have the building ready for use. It is with much regret that we announce that the summer school for l'.iOb is abolished, but a regular six weeks sessiou will be held in 1907." Fifth The following 4 resolutions were passed by the Board of Educa tioa May 7th in regard to the gradu atiou of pupils: "Whereas, As a result of the earthquake of April 13, 190t, it has been impossible to complete the usual amount of work in the schools of the city aud county of San Francisco, and whereas, it would appear unjust to deprive the classes which would have graduated in June of this year of their diplomas, therefore, be it and it is hereby ''ftesolved, Tat all pupils who, in the opinion of the principal, and as evidenced by their work at the time of the disaster, wouid have graduated, receive their diplomas without fur ther attendance upon school exer cises. '"iesolved, That graduating exer i cises be held for the public schools of I San Francisco in the ODen, air at Golden Gate Park June 2, l(J0b at 2 o'clock P. M., and t.iat the pro gramme for such event be forthwith prepared and carried ni'o effect by this department " Principals please send names of graduates as soon as possible. Sixth The teachers serving their probationary period are requested to at once communicate with this ollice the date of their assignment, con firmed, if possible, by documentary evidence, together with any other information which will enable prompt I action in placing them on the regular list. Seventh -There will be no coirpe' titive examination for admission of teachers to the San Francisco School Department this'jvflr.

School Department. ALFRED roncoyieri, Superintendent Common Sc! ouls. AARON ALT.vlAN'N, President Board of Bducu'.ior.. Bars Chinese From Grov Pacific Grove, May 2-'. The trou ble over the site of Chinatown, which was destroyed last wet 1; by fire, threatens to ussume international proportions. Officials of the Pacific Improvement Company have for CTCMjj,j,Miagwwm. months desired to eject the Chinese from their picturesque village east of Pacific Grove. The conflagration seemed to furnish the desired oppor tunity, and on Saturday the company built a fence across the road by which access to the place has been obtained for twenty years Next morning this fence was torn down, but whs restored by the Pacific Improvement Company, which then posted live armed guards there. Meanwhile the Chinese commenced the reconstruc tion of their dwellings with canvas and such material as was at hand. Prior, the lard ageyt for the com pany, and his guards, proceeded to demolish these dwellings, and he aud a guard were arrested for this pro ceeding by Monterey constables and haled before Justice Michaelis, charg ed with misdemeanor. Aa a rataliatory measure this morning thirteen Chinese, one woman, and one white, were arrested and taken before Justice Pcils, charged with malicious mischief. This afternoon Mucager Shepard of the Pacific improvement Company appeared on the scene and ordered the place fenced in tight. Entry was refused to ljmticr teams and water is also shut t IT. The Chinese,. determined to main tairt their eights, have appealed to their Consul and the Chinese Minister from Washington, who has been visit ing Oakland. Their claim to land dales from 1811, since which time they allege they have had continuous possession. Five special constables have bet u sviirn in to protect the company's pruptrty, and at present they hold the road. Later. Colore! Mann, Com mandant at the Presidio, roue down to China tovn, but was s'opp.'d by an armed deputy. After wit nosing the conduct of other deputies, he threat ened to report the samn to the Unit ed fitatt s authorities. Gigantic Deal In Water Rights One of the biggest deals in real estate ar J water i ights ever con summated iu Hawaii has jjot been completed. It involve the sa'e of Pacific Height and the water sources an ! right.-, helot., ing to that property. Al-o piaetiea'.'y the v. hi !e of Pa uoa Valley and a'l the springs and water sources in the vaiiev. It also involves the utilization of the water from these sources for water power and the establishment of a great paper and fibre frctory. Finally the plan contemplates a:i addition to the water supply of Hon olulu without cost to the community. The promoter of the plans thus outlined is T. B. Reynolds the repre senfative in Hawaii of the New York Paper Export Association with of fices in the Young building. He has secured options on all the land and water rights involved. Tie proposes for himself and his associates to es tablish a paper fibre factory on the property purchased. Power for all this and other purposes will be se cured from the water sources which are included in the purchase all of which are at an elevation of several hundred feet ' above sea level and hence will afford abundant "head" for the generation of large power. The financing of the scheme in volves some elements of novelty. It is proposed to issue bonds to the amount of $200,000. In return for the water supply furnished the city, which will be the whole amount of water used for power purposes the use of the water for power in no wise affecting its suitability for other use the county will be asked to guarantee the bond issue which will be for twenty years, taking as its security a trust deed t.or the whole property inVolved, land aud water sources. Thus if the promoters fai to pay interest and principle and the county is obliged to do so, it will have the property itself. The promoters are to pay the principal and interest of the bonds. Thus the county will get this addition to its water supply for the period of twenty years, the term of the bond issue, without the expenditure of money and merely for the loan of its credit. These are but the outlines of the plat:. Jt is understood that the price to be paid for Pacific Heights, Pauoa Valley, and the springs and other sources of water is in the n -ighbor hood of a quarter of a million dollars. Besides this there are some other properties owned or represented by S. M.-Damon which are purchased in addition. Crazy Operator Ties Up Traffic Huntington, (Iud.), May 22.
