CREATES A SCENE
AT WHITE HOUSE
Mrs. SyKes of Pasadena Acts
Queerly in Deri)ar)diog to See
the President
\ WASHINGTON. May 22.— A queer-looking little woman giving her
| name as Mrs. Sarah Sykee, and claiming to be from Pasadena, Cal.,
i.c ai the White House to-day. Her trouble was not de
: tected until she had reached the President's door. She told Captain
Loeffler thai she wanted to see the President at once. The President
Borne visitors with him and Captain Loeffler said he could not give
her admissi.-n. Mrs. Sykes then said that she had a ticket for Europe
In her pocket and would not wait another minute.
"I want peace," she loudly exclaimed, as she started back down the
b. "1 am going tn have it, too, or plunge the whole world in war.
what I'm after." All the way to h<r carriage she talked loud
ly and incoherently, but was not Interferred with. She wore a drab rub
ber coat over her dress and had on a light veil. She would have been
arrested if she had not quickly gone to her carriage, as it was apparent
I that she was unbalanced.

Lawton's turning in his march to the
north and proceeding down the Ri
Grande Is the natural result of h -
sire to get behind the Insurgents at San
i crush them at a blow, at -
cording t" programme.
In I north Lawton tra\ -
■ as! .: the Rio Grande
parallel to it. His march was
through a rough and little tra
country toward the fool of the moun
tain ranges. It was a hard journey and
the insurgents slipped away before they
could be I . n between Lawton
Kobbe and Mac-Arthur's armies.
The reported dissoluti< n of the insur
forces, which are said to be in bad
condition at Tarlae, and the statement
in General <vis' dispatch that he had
c i--'iU' i st for an
armistice, are taken to indicate that
there is some likelihood that the com
mission's i ffer of a form of govern
may be speedily accepted. That is a
matter, however, on which there is no
official information to speculate.
No particular Importance is attached
to the statement that the Filipinos are
threatening trouble In the s<>uth. The
American line in this direction is under
rnand of General Ovenshine and
stretches across a narrow neck of land
■ ■ I'-A miles south of Manila between
the seacoast and Lacuna de Bai. It
is a position which the Filipinos could
not force under any conceivable* con
dition, while the tin clad fleet of the
iagoon and the warships off the coast
would be able to make the narrow
stretch of country between them a
very unhealthy resort tor any large
i if insurgents.
The written proposition submitted to
th.-- Filipinos to-day at Manila by the
American commission was framed in
Washington by Secretary Hay. The
only error i.n the printed copy of its
tits is th" of the qualifi
cation "principle" in the statement of
the judges to be appointed by the
President. It is the intention to give
the Filipinos, just as the President has
promised, as large a measure of self
government as they seem aM" t" ex
se with safety to themselves and
due regard to the welfare of other na
tions. Therefore, it is proposed to al
low them to choose their own inferior
judicial officials to begin with and per
haps the principle may be extended if
it works well in the lower grades.
President Schurman did not report to
Secretary Hay, hence it is assumed
that the conference up to this point has
not yet been productive of results as
to warrant a statement.

TROUBLE IN THE SANTA
CLARA HIGH SCHOOL
SAN* JOSE, May 22.— Trouble is brewing \
In the Santa Clara High School between :
the pupils who seceded from the San Jose
High School when Professor L. R. Smith j
was dismissed and the local pupils. So j
wide is the breach that David Henderson,
president of the Santa Clara Board of
Education, has resigned his office rather!
than fill the trying place of arbitrator.
The selection ol the place where the;
graduating exercises of the High School!
societies are to be h«sld has i
aroused the ill feeling. The San j
Jose pupils outnumber the Santa Clara
ites and they boldly decided to have the j
exercises held at the Victory Theater In
this city. They wanted to bring the I
school graduation exercises here, but the I
trust-, s stepped in and chose the Uni
versity of the Pacific as the place. This i
is located halfway between the two towns '
and the Santa Clara pupils think the San '
JOM students want too much. The trou- j
ble may be as serious as the strike in the
local high school last year.

CLASS OF '99
BIDS FAREWELL
TO ALMA MATER
Stanford Men and Women Who
Go Forth to Fight Life's
Battles.
STANFORD UNIVERSITY, May 22.—
Senior class day opened with services in
the chapel this morning. Ralph Arnold,
president of the class, made a short ad
dress, after which • he introduced Ralph
Filcher, who 1 proceeded to relate the his
tory of the class. He said in part:. .V,,'
The class upon entering college began to dab
ble in athletics and literature. Not content
with the ordinary pursuits of editing the dif
ferent college- papers, In their junior year they
took upon themselves the task of petting cut
the best annual ever produced at Stanford. The
book, according to the time honored costom,
did not go into the hands of a receiver, but
we can forgive our manager- for this.
The speaker dilated at length upon the
intellectual abilities of his class gnd then
took up athletics.
Five star football players, and worthy repre
sentatives "on the diamond and track,- we are
proud to claim. In addition to the records
of the' individual men, as evidence of the ac
tivity which "99 stands for In athletic lines,
the work of which has been done toward se
curing that much needed institution— a train
ing house— stnds boldly in the front. . All have
agreed upon th,- desirability of such a house;
many have suggested plans to secure it; but it
has remained for '99 to act.
An for the social side of life, '99 began bril
liantly and has consistently upheld the repu
tation gained four years ago. Our freshmen
glee was the first affair of the kind ever
given. Our junior hop was conceded to have
been unsurpassed.
Mr. Filcher then proceeded to praise
certain members of his class. Said he.
The most famous men, who/through mistake,
did enter college with any other clases, hve
since seen the error of their way and allied
themselves with '99. For their good taste—
that of the faculty— the highest praise is due.
With the graduation of '99 there leave col
lege the last of those men who have known
and appreciated the spirit of the pioneers of
'95, whose acquaintance has been intimate with
the men who made the present undergraduate
life of Stanford what it is; who developed its
traditions, its pleasures, and its college spirit.
We will be the only class that. has known both
the Intimate fellowship of the old university
and the larger life of the new.
We entered Stanford during her darkest hour.
Others who came after us and share in the
great tide of prosperity, may know the affec
tion that comes from its great bounty, but only
those who have felt the hopes and fears through
which the founders had to struggle can ever
experience such deep personal love for these
revered arches as is shared by the members
of '99.
Mr. Suzzallo delivered the last will and
testament of the class. To several society
men were bequeathed the benches in the
arboretum, provided that the use of the
benches shall be strictly limited to the
hours between 10 p. m. and 2 a. m. All the
remaining Bull Durham and dead soldiers
situate, lying and being within any tene
ment, structure or edifice on the campus
were bequeathed to the Runt Club. To
Carl Hayden, rough rider of Tempo. \
Ariz was bequeathed all the hair tonic
now in the possession of Judge Ellas. The ,
young ladies of Roble inherited undying
Love and affection, to be enjoyed by them
share and share alike. V r v'
Professor Murray spoke to the class
about the warm relations existing be
tween .professors and students, after
which the audience adjourned to the
quadrangle, where the class plate was in
serted in the pavement under the arcades
Dr Jordan gave the history of Stanford
from the day of its founding, through its
darkest hours to the present.
Many notable guests were present,
among whom were Rev. Burt tstees
Howard of Los Angeles.

"ATALANTA IN STANFORD."
Fantasy in Four Acts Presented by
Senior Class Talent.
STANFORD UNIVERSITY, May 22
--"Atalanta In Stanford," a fantasy in four
acts, written by W. H. .Irwin, '99, was
presented in Encina gymnasium this
afternoon. Many visitors were present
and the "gym" could not comfortably
seat the crowd.
In the play the gpds and goddesses of
ancient Greece are transported to the ;
campus, and, during Dr. Jordan's ab
sence, he having accepted a position on
th»- Bering Sea Sea! Commission, the god
Jupiter rules the university as president.
His family rules him.
As the ancient story goes, Atalanta was
finally beaten in a foot race and her
heart and hand won. after many suitors
had failed and been put to death. So At
alanta in Stanford was won in the same
way by "Jack" Blair, who had the aid of
Mercury, bod of his dad, Jupiter. Mer- ■
cury could assume any shape he desired
and ran the race all but the last lap, !
when 'Jack" linished it. winning by two
lengths. "Dick" Culver as Jupiter and
president of the University, was a suc
cess and would no doubt have pleased as
president in reality those students who j
are inclined to roystering, for he was a '
m^rry old soul. He permitted only those
liberties which were consistent with good I
scholarship, but every' form of gaiety ;
seemed consistent. Without any stretch |
of the imagination he reminded "his audi- i
ence of Edwin Stevens.
The football game as it will be played in
future years was introduced. It will de- !
llgrht esthetic people, for it is played in
dresa suits and a beribboned ball Is gen
tly handled from one to another, with
many apologies.
"The Ravings of Pringle." by Riley,
brought down the house. Pringle was
supposed to be in an insane asylum from
the effects of losing the "C" fence.
Another laughable feature was the drill
by the "Berkeley Cadets."
A sentimental love scene between
Apollo, who is blase, and Hattie Blake
was cleverly sung and acted. Claire
Strohn did some good "stunts" with his
feet and the chorus of gods, goddesses, '
Japs, co-eds and quadrangle cavaliers
was almost perfect. The show was a
success and "Bill" Irwin, the author, was
called to the front for a talk.
The cast for the farce was as follows:
Atalanta, devoted to athletics Miss C. Rose
Jar-k Blair, devoted to Atalanta W. M. Erb
Hattie Blake, a freshman Miss E. B. Zucker i
A Uypsy Miss E. Lewis \
Jupiter, who conducts Olympus R. K. Culver i
Juno, who conducts Jupiter Mist H. Holmes
Venus, popular in society Miss \V. Morgan
Mercury, a freshman but keen —J. S. Brlseoe
Apollo, who is blase P. R. Itiley
Mar? •. A. J. Van Kaathoven
Neptune Claire .Strohn.
Adder Claws, who rules Encina J. S. Briscoe
Chorus or" koclp, fjoddesses, Japs, co-eda and
quadrangle cavaliers.
The seniors, freed from all further care '
in the matter of studies and credits, en- ,
Joyed themselves to-night by tripping the
light fantastic to the tunes of Yank's ;
orchestra. It was the society event of the
year. Flcancially it was a success, as the
hall was crowded and each claw-hammer
coat that entered had to pungle up $5 for
itself and the accompanying lady, besides
squandering 50 cents for necessary pro
grammes. The hall was beautifully dec
orated, the women handsomely gowned
in evening costume, and calcium lights
added to the brilliant effect. Among the
noted guests were ex-Governor Markham,
Timothy Hopkins and T,urt Estes Howard.
The patronesses were. Mesdames Tim
othy Hopkins, David Starr Jordan, J. C.
Branner, G. H. Gillman. Braden, Rice,
Pierce. Cubberly, J. P. Smith, Pease,
Matzke, Griffin, Van Kaathoven. Barnard,
Holmes. Murray. Evans'. Sanford, Howard
G. Stevenson and Miss Lillian Ray.
MORE IMPRESSIVE
RITUAL IS WANTED
Resolution Arouses a Spirited Debate
in the B'nai B'rith
Session.
LOUISVILLE, May 22.— At the second
session of the Independent Order of B'nal
B'rith to-day a resolution was offered pe
titioning the Grand Lodge, which will
meet In San Francisco, to introduce
a more impressive ritual. This aroused a
spirited debate, and it was at last re
ferred to the ritual committee.
A memorial service was held in honor
of the late Isador Bush, the Jewish phi
lanthropist of St. Louis, who died re
cently.
The project to establish a hospital at
Denver, Colo., for Jewish consumptives
at an outlay of $15,000 a year was dis
cussed at great length in the afternoon
session. Final action was delayed until
to-morrow. Jacob Furth, the St. Louts
£hilanthroplst, and Dr. Alfred Muller of
>en«ver led the fight for the hospital.
St. Louis was decided upon as the
place of meeting in 1900.

Fitzsimmons-Jeffries Contest to Take
Place on the Scheduled Date.
NEW YORK, May 22.-The Fitzsim
mons-Jeffries contest will take place in i
the evening of June 9. This decision was i
reached by the directors of the Coney j
Island Club at a meeting to-day. The con
clusion was reached through the offer of j
a prominent picture firm, which assured
tae club people It can take successful
moving pictures by the use of electric
light at night. This prevents any possi
bility of a postponement.
GAGE IS DODGING
OFFICE SEEKERS
Retires to His Downey
Ranch.
SEEKING REST AND QUIET
MAY SOON MAKE WHITTIER
APPOINTMENTS.
The Paris World's Fair Commission
Probably Will Name Major
Ben C. Truman as Its
Secretary.
Special Dispatch to The Call.
LOS ANGELES, May 22.— Governor
Henry T. Gage arrived on the early train
this morning. He left for his ranch near i
Downey an hour after his arrival, to
avoid the persistent office-seeker, of j
whom Gage admits he is tired.
The Governor Intends to fill the two va
cancies on the Whittier Reform School
board before he leaves, if the factions
now contesting for control of the school
shall agree. Should this be found impos
sible, the Governor will, it was intimated
to-day, appoint a board which shall se
lect as Superintendent Van Alstyne's sue- j
cessor neither Dr. Barber nor Sherman I
Smith. In that event T. E. Newlin. for- !
merly County Cterk, or Mayor M. T. |
Owens will be chosen to preside over the
dt'stlnies of the school.
"A great many persons are fooling ;
themselves Into the belief that I will !
appoint a superintendent of the State
School at Whittier," said Mr. Gage. "I !
am getting letters and telegrams by the j
cord, asking about Whittier and other j
places. I have absolutely nothing to do j
with the appointment ot a superintend- j
rnt. After I have named the .trustees for
the institution I expect them to choose
the superintendent. It is so with the !
normal schools and the university. When
I name the trustees or the regents it is |
all left to them to select a superintendent j
or president. I shall appoint no trustees j
for Whittier until after I have visited the
institution."
Mr. Gage's friends to-night insist that
he has come south with the intention of ;
visiting all the public institutions in |
Southern California. In reply to a direct j
question the Governor said he had not ap
pointed a Labor Commissioner, and was j
looking over petitions.
Next Monday the Governor, accom- j
panied by Mrs. Gage and Mr. and Mrs.
George J. Denis, will leave for Yosemite.
Dr. E. A. Bryant also- will be in the party
and Senator and Mrs. Stephen M. White
may take the trip.
L. L. Maude of Riverside, who has just
been appointed State Highway Commis
sioner, will, it is «aid, name Assembly
man Miller of Clearw/uer as his secretary.
Mr. Miller voted for Colonel D. M. Burns '
for T'nited States Senator on the day the I
recent Legislature adjourned.
Major Ben C. Truman said to-day the |
Paris Commission would meet in San j
Francisco for organization in about ten |
days. Regarding the appointment of a i
secretary Mr. Truman said:
"That will not be determined until the
Commissioners get together. .1 think the j
secretary will be one of the throe Commis- '
sioners. I am averse to appointing an
outside secretary, who would have ex- <
ecutive power. If my colleagues think as
I do the only appointments to be made i
will be clerical. I think we should have
some good men look after the interests
of their respective localities. Most of the '
help we will need we can employ better in
Paris."
Mr. Truman's friends insist to-night !
that this practically means the appoint- j
ment of Truman himself. A now appli- j
cant for secretary appeared to-day in
Otheman E. Stevens, who, it is said, has !
the ear of Gage and his friends.
Martin Aguirre, the new warden of San I
Quentin, will consult with Governor Gage !
as to his line of policy before he assumes j
office on July 1. There are to be no whole
sale discharges of prison guards and other !
employes, as was hoped by the hundreds
of persons who have for w r ecks been seek
ing positions at the penitentiary, although
a weeding out is to be made.
Water Case Award Accepted.
LOS ANGELES, May 22.— The City
Council to-day formally accepted the
award In the water company ease by the
arbitration board and decided to call upon
the water company for a statement of
what the company intends to do. There

quired to acquire the water plant to be
offered to local capitalists and individuals.

BABY STOLEN
BY THE NURSE.
Bold Case of Kidnaping
at New York.
AN INFANT IS STOLEN
NOTE WRITTEN TO THE MOTHER,
WHO MAY DIE
The Abductors Declare That the Lit
tle One and Nursegirl Are
Safe if No Fuss Is
Made.
Special Dispatch to The CalV
NEW YORK. May 22.— What ap
peared to be a bold case of kidnaping
a child was reported to the police to
day, and a score of detectives were at
once sent out In an endeavor to arre^.^^
the offenders. The missing child i.-^
Marion, the eighteen-months-ola
daughter of Arthur Clark, an employe
of a publishing firm. She was taken,
the police say, by a nurse named Carrie
Jnnes, who was hired last week by the
Clarks through an advertisement.
The whole thing seems to have been
a cleverly laid plot. The child wa>
taker, out yesterday afternoon by the
nurse and the empty baby carriage was
found by the police in Central Park.
Soon afterward Mrs. Clark received
this letter:
"Mrs. Clark— Do not look for your
nurse and baby. They are safe in our
possession, where they will remain for
the present. If the matter is kept out
of the hands of the police and news
papers you will get your baby back
safe and sound. If, instead, you make
a big time about it and publish it all
over we will see to it that you never
see her alive again. We are driven t>>
this by the fact that we cannot get
work and one of us has a child dying
through want of proper treatment and
nourishment. Your baby is safe and in
good hands. The nurse girl is still with
her. If everything is quiet, you will
hear from us Monday or Tuesday."
There is evidence to show that the
nurse girl wrote the letter. Mrs. Clark
is in a serious condition, and the
suspense may cause her death.
PLANS FOR THE VALLEY
ROAD DEPOT AT FRESNO
It Is Said the Division Headquarters
Will Be Removed From
Stockton.
FRjJSNO, May 22.— Surveyors have
staked the ground plan for a handsome
passenger depot in this city for the Val

of about $15. (mm), and it is expected to have
the depot ready for occupancy to accom
modate the increased traffic in July, when
the junction with the Santa Fe will be
completed and through continental trains
will be running to San Francisco. The
depot will be a two-story structure of at
tractive design and will follow the Span
ish mission style, after which all the pas
senger depots on the VaJley road have
been built.
It is said that with the completion of tne
building division headquarters will be re
moved from Stockton to this city, the
plans of the depot building contemplating
in the upper story office rooms for the
divisional officials.
