The encinal city will have a synagogue wherein the meggers of the local Jewish colony can wdfrship if the objects of the Hebrew Aoclation of Alameda are that is the principal pur-pese for which the organization was formed. The other aim of the association is to promote and cultivate sociability among the Hebrew families residing here, of which there are more than 100.

Twenty heads of prominent Jewish households met recently, and after thoroughly discussing the synagogue project, organized the Hebrew Association, to further the building movement. Officers were chosen as follows: President, William Wolfe; vice-president, Levy Bahr: secretary, Samuel S. Green; treasurer. Max' Gutter; trustees Edward- Semmel, Solomon Davidson, L. Gottheim, S.

Shirek, K. Goldstein and I. Haber. The association will first proceed to raise the necessary funds." Then a s'te will be purchased and the construo-tion of the synagogue commenced. The Hebrews of this city have long desired a house of worship of their own.

Seven years ago an effort was made to erect such a structure, but without success. The officers and members of the new' association assert that there will be no failure on this occasion. At present the Jewish Sunday-school children are taught in Encinal Hall. The classes are constantly increasing, and the demand for a proper house of worship is as strong on the part of the young people as it is on the part of their elders. HOTEL ARRIVALS.

SYSTEMATIC ARRANGEMENTS TO GIVE THE PUBLIC CONSTANT, EARLY AND ACCURATE FIGURES. i i 1 THE TRIBUNE and the Enquirer of Oakland In combination with tbVljhree big morning dailies of San Francisco, will furjiish to the public tomorrow night returns on the general election from every precinct in Alameda coun ty.

Every arrangement has been made and ever experience of former years has been jprofited by. No expense has been spaned and there is not one reason why the returns should not be complete and entirely accurate. Following the precedent of former years a big general; bureau has been fitted out and here partial returns will be received and flashed on the instant to the offices of the newspapers in the combination, where they will be flung across the bulletin board as rapidly as they are received. The bureau has been 'arranged and will be handled by experts of long experience, i In every polling place in the city and county there will be a special representative who every half hour during the count will flash partial re turns to the bureau, Especial care has been taken in the selection of these representatives. Nearly to a man they have been sei lected from the Polytechnic, High and Grammar schools and every one was chosen from among his fellows for his demonstrated ability and quick intelligence.

To many of them it will be a first lesson in practical politics and practical I newspapei i work. It 'will be a valuable lesson to say the least, and they 'prepared to go to their work with enthusiasm, although with strict instructions to cause no annoyance to election officers and to in no wise im pede the count. Alameda county Is looking forward to the heaviest vote in its history. Public interest is more generally aflame than in many years. It is the object of the papers to satisfy this interest with constant and accurate returns.

Election officers throughout the county will confer a favor not only upon the bureau but upon the whole public by affording these representatives every possible assistance. All Bureau representatives will wear a PRESS BADGE and will carry credentials to the officers of their different precincts. WILL SHORTEN ITS ROUTE.

The Sunday- school room, which we are using now until the main part of the church is completed, was decorated. The principal thing which attracted one's attention as he entered the room was rows of tables soread with white.

The room wis literally full of tables. The ladies wiere determined to have ample room to accommodate all who might be present, and they succeeded admirably. The tables were loaded with gpod things to eat. At the appointed time all were seated as around a family board and enjoyed the good things which Wad been prepared, amidst the pleasant sounds of music, which was furnished by some of the friends. An unique way of calling the roll was instituted.

Instead of having the names called and requiring each member to respond, there was a card placed at each plate, and upon this card the member wrote his name. This gave a Complete register of all who were present Dr. B. Holmes was the efficient tdastmajster. During this part of the seribef the various departments of the church R'ere heard from.

CRAWFORD SAYS SCHOOLS REQUIRE SUPERINTENDENT'S SUPERVISION. To the Editor of THE TRIBUNE: In your Issue of November 1, an article appears under the heading "Ctoun try Districts Want Superintendent" It is not an editorial, but an advertisement. Tt maybe harmful to those who da not know bow false and misleading It Is, so far as the first sixteen lines are concern ed. The last two paragraphs are simply opinions, are stated as euchH and one may or may not accept them. I call attention to the statements in the first two paragraphs.

7 It is not true that the "citizens, as a whole, of the Forty-sixta Assembly District request that the office of County Superintendent be given to. the country portion of the county." There are a few in the county who, for tne purpose of injecting politics intp'thel school department, would be glad to see a change in the personnel of the office. One young man has been ad vocating a change for two months, on the groUnd that it would be to his personal advantage. The very thing that has been kept out of the office, absolutely now seeks admission under the guise of the fore going caption. Section 1,543 ot tne political Code of California, and succeed-ings sections name the duties of the County Superintendent.

The first is: "To superintend the schools of his county." To this eommand, there is no exception. Each of the following Alameda, Berkeley, Oakland Is a school district and the general school law of the State applies to each. The same supervision which the, County Superintendent has over the smallest school district in the county he must. with trfting exceptions, exercise over the largest. All moneys paid for Oxe support onthe common schools in Oakland are paid on requisitions drawn by the County Superintendent.

Temporary certificates are issued by the County Superintendents to all teachers in the county, if it be neces sary so to do. He must enforce the Jaw relating to the use of the State text books in all the schools; he must see that the teachers in each district hold the necessary certificates. If a teach er's salary be withheld the County Su perlntendent must investigate the, mat ter, and his report to the Superintend ent of Public Instruction is the facts upon which a final decision is made. It is needless, however, to particularise. The duty of the County School Superintendent is to the schools of the whole county.

Why should Oakland, which pays one-half of the school tax be left out? Why should the three districts -Alameda, Berkeley; Oakland which pay more than three-fourths of the school tax be slighted by a county officer, whose duty demands county supervision? The political trick of pleading for the county against the cities will deceive no one. Personally, I have this to say: I have fulfilled my obligations, have done my duty. The law demands one visit to each school during the year. I have made two, in some instances three. have appointed scores of trustees and in no instance has a man's political standing influenced me.

I assume that the status of American citizenship is sufficient to entitle anyone to offer himself as a candidate for the office of trustee. That, and the further facts of interest in the welfare of the public schools and in the children attending them, are grounds for my exercising the right to appoint The citizens of Washington township, four years ago, were very much in favor of my being elected Superintendent, and none were more enthusiastic than the friends of my gentlemanly opponent, who lives in that township. I believe the voters of this county will on the fourth of November, re-elect me to the office which I now hold, and I promise an impartial administration of the duties of the office. I am 'Very gratified for the thousands cheering words. T.

O. CRAWFORD, County Superintendent of Schools. -tr NINE INSANE CASES DURING THE MONTH. Warden James Page of the Receiving Hospital has filed his monthly account with the County Clerk, showing nine patients were examined for insanity during the month. Six were sent to the asylum.

HALLOWE'EN JINKS. The Hallowe'en high-jinks at the First Presbyterian Church, given by the Sunday School was a great success. The attendance was large and the young people enjoyed themselves immensely learning their future and deceiving their friends in masquerade costumes of sheets and pillow -slips. The decorations of greens, pumpkin vines and jack-o'lanterns made Bri gade Hall look cheerful when the lights were on, and spooky when the Jack-o'- lanterns alone lit' the scene. The jack- o'-lanterns were carved from immense pumpkins, twenty-six In number, and their elusive light led some of the brave young men up three flights of very narrow stairs, where they found a ghost who, after many searching questions regarding their ancestors names, gave them a slip of paper, on which was written the name of his future wife.

Some were rather humiliated to find that this name was none other than their own with a "Mrs." bt- fore it The refreshments were appropriate for the occasion, consisting of doughnuts, apples and pumpkin pie, the latter made by some of the famous cooks of the Sunday School.
