SHE WAS DESPONDENT Because People Taunted Her of Two Sisters Who Had Gone Astray. EDDIE WHITE'S BRAVE RESCUE | His Timely Appearance Saves the Fair Young Wou'd-Be Suicide. Alice Jones attempted suicide by throw- ing herself into the ocean mnear the CIiff House early yesterday morning. The obvortune appearance of a young man, Eddie White, was all that prevented the girl from carrying out her de- sign. Before the waves could carry their young burden bevond the reach of human aid the heroic rescuer rushed into the seething waters. The first wave carried him off his feet, but, undaunted, the brave fellow strug- rled, and at last reachea the almost life- less figure. He grasped the young woman about the waist and then began to fight for his own life as well as that of the fair | would-be suicide, It wasa hard battle, but White with bis unconscious burden finally reached the shore. 1t was Captain Morton of the life-sav- ing crew who pulled the rescuer and r cued safely on to the dry sands. In a few moments the girl regained consciousness, and a little later was able to walk to the life-saving station, where dry clothing was furnished her. ‘At 9 o’clock she was carried to the Receiving Hospital, and in the afternoon she was given a temporary shelter in the Girls’ Hill street. Back of this attempted self-destruction | lies a pathetic story. Alice Jones was born in this City seven- teen years ago of honest and poor parents. She was the third of a family of five chil- dren—four daughters and a son. The mother died when she was still a very young girl, and the father sought to better his condition by homesteading on Goyern- ment land near San Benito. The two eldest daughters were left to care for the house, also to attend to the bringing up of Alice and another sister two years her junior. For a time matters moved smoothly, and then the two elder sisters went astray. They are now living near Ingleside, and with them is the 15-year-old sister. Eleven months azo matters became so bad that Alice left her wayward sisters, going to San Mateo, where she had secured 2 position as servant in the home of a con- tractor named Morton. After a time peo- ple taunted her with theacts of her sisters. This preyed on the young girl's mind. What actuully led up to the attempted suicide was toid by the girl shortly after iving Hospital. “Sunday night week I went driving with Mr. Jennings, the proprietor of a livery- stable,” she said. *“Mrs. Morton, the lady for whom I worked, of course gave her consent; in fact she seemed much pleased that Mr. Jennings should pay me atten- tion. We returned about 9 o’clock, but as the family had company I would not go in. When they left about 11 o’clock I went to my room. “The next morning the family began to comment on it. Oh, they said so many insinuating things that I thought I should die from very shame. 1 was friendless and alone in the world, and it occurred to me that it would be better 1f 1 could di All during the week they kept say ing unpleasant things, and when Isst mnight I heard a sermon on self-destruction I grew despondent and determined to take my life. I went home, wrote a letter to Mrs. Morton, telling her ining Home on corf N | how I felt. This Ileft on the dresser and I left San Mateo at 5:30 this morning and, as soon as I arrived, started at once for the beach. **The rest of the story is already known. I jumped into the water, and but for the act of a brave man I would now be dead. Oh, 1 do wish he had let me die, for it would have been better in the end. I was not frightened a bit by the waves. Why should 1 be when my seeking them was a voluntary act? ““While I am sorry that I wes not left to | die, I will never attempt such a thing again. 1 suppose people had a right to scold me, but 1 did not think so at the | time. I was compelled to work very hard, and I suppose that had something to do { with my attempted suicide.” Alice Jones arrived in the City vesterday morning about 6 o’clock. She went imme- diately to the park and there boarded the { first train for the beach, reaching there at 7:30. On the way out the conductor no- ticed that she cried and wrung her hands alniost continuously. Fearing that all was not right he asked two_other early morning passengers, Ed- | die White and Fred Scott, to watch her for a time. The young girl walked deli | erately to the beach just beyond the big |iron pier, and throwing her hat to the | ground rushed wildly into the foaming | | waters. At the life-saving station her outer gar- menis were taken off, and a big ulster, which swept the ground as she walked, furnished her. For a hat she wore a biri woolen gray knit cap, which came wel | down over "her ears. In this garb the [ young woman appeared at the Receiving | Hospital. At 1 0’clock she was sent to the Training Home and after a warm bath was given a sleeping potion and then tucked snugly away between white | sheets and warm blankets. She will be kept at the Training Home until some | other provision can be made for her. CHOSE GARRETT MENERNY. An Attorney Decided on by the Board of Election Commissioners.

APPLAUSE AT THE COLUMBIA, William Keith’s Fine Singing—An Excellent Concert Well Attended, San Francisco has been especially fa- vored in respect to violinists during the past two montbs, for the three who aroused most interest in the East last winter have all been heard here. Marsick was lan- guidly applauded, Ondricek’s fiery verve aroused his audiences to warm demon- | strations, and last night Rivarde, who made his San Francisco debut at the Columbia Theater, was applauded to the echo, particularly in music which gave him scope for the display of his own char- | acteristic qualities. In these days, when a plain, stubble- haired man has absolutely no chance as a virtuoso, Achille Rivarde’s appearance is | in itself a fortune to him. There wasa distinct sensation in the theater when the tall, willowy voung Spaniard appeared and agitated his flowing black locks in a graceful, langnid bow. In fact there were anumber of people who settled themselves back in their seats with a sense of luxu- rious satisfaction. after they had sur- veyad the young violinist through their opera glasses and had seen that he had all | RECEWING to pe waged before the Supreme Court. Mayor Sutro, who was_present, spoke in favor of ex-Judge McKinstry, but the other members were united on McEnerny, and he was chosen. The compensation to be paid for his services could not be decided upon, how- ever, and went over for a week. Mayor Sutro thought $500 a month, as long as the fight Jasts or until after the election, would be about right, but the other members asked time to consider the matter. A NEW LAW POINT. Mission-Street Cars Invite Young Men to Jump On. The parents of James A. Frichette are suing for $50,000 damages for the death of their son. He was killed by a Mission- street car on September 25, 1894, The complaint contains a novel point. It is charged that the Mission - street cars must run from Twenty-ninth street to the ferries in thirty -five minutes, and as the distance is fourand a half miles they must run far above the speed allowed by law. In addition to that it is charged that every young man isinvited to jump on the car whileit isin motion, and in pursuance of this request the deceased tried to board a moving car. ————— Her Marriage a Failure. Henry Brown, a boy 5 years of age, living at 727 Minba street, was taken to the Receiving | Hospital yesterday morning by his mother to have wounds on his nose and forehead dressed, His mother said he had slipped and fallen agaimst a slop bucket in a house where she was working. She is compelled to go out for work to support herself and two young children, as her husband is too lazy to do anything for them. She has weal '}11 relatives in the City, but they will have nq ng to do with her, 'AS SHE FIRST APPERARED AT THE HOSPIEA. the outward and visible signs of a success- i ful virtuoso. The first number in which Rivarde was heard was the Mendelssohn violin concerto, which was played by both Marsick and Ondricek. It was not, as a whole, so suited to make his playing appeal to the audience as other numbers in which he was heard later, though the last two movements aroused his hearers to a good deal of enthusiasm. His tone is remarkable for its sweetness and clearness rather than its strength, and his execution of florid passages is easy and brilliant. The great charm of Ri- varde’s playing, however, is in his poetic expression. On the whole the orchestra, under the direction of H. J. Stewart, did excellent work. The intonations might at times have been better and a little more preci- sion in the last movement of the concerto would have been an improvement, but on the whole the playing was crisp, the shad- ing good and theclimaxes were splendidly ‘worked up. Z It was the Wieniawski “‘Airs Russes’” which brought Rivarde a storm of ap- plause and *‘bravos!” His interpretation was thoroughly characteristic, savoring neither of Ysaye's somewhat majestic rendering nor of Ondricek’s fiery in- terpreiation. Rivarde had less brio than the latter, but more sentiment, while his execution was very flowery and facile. He was recalled again and again, responding be playing a “HunFurian Dance,” by Wieniawski, and finally, when the people still wanted more, he gave them a “‘Ro- mance,”’ by Svendsen. ‘W. H. Keith, the local barytone, who has been winning successes in the East and in Europe, was a very welcome addi- tion to the concert. His ‘voice is as mel- low and homogenecus as ever and he has gained considerably in artistic expression, though he needs to guard against his ten- dency to idulge in the tremolo, to the extent of almost wabbling on some of his notes. However, this is almost the one shortcoming that one can_find with his school. He pro- nounces French better than many French gingers, for every word is audible and his accent is excellent. TFaure's “Santa Maria” was especially suited to display Keith’s really peautiful voice. though he also sang Massenet’s ‘‘Vision Fugitive” excellently as well as his encore, “I Love Thee.” Lachaume had a better piano than when he was last heard here, but the instru- ment had not been tuned to the same pitch_as the orchestra. and therefore in the Weber ‘‘Concertstuck” there was a war of instruments, which soon caused the orchestra to desist from the unequal contest and leave the field to the pianist. Lachaume also played Chopin’s ‘‘Polon- aise’” in A flat and played it well, if a little forcefully. The programme for to-night is as fol- lows: Overture, “Rienzi” (Wagner), orchestra; First Ballade %}hopm), M. Aime Lachaum air from the “Prodigal Son” (A thur Sullivan), William H. Keit Concert No. 1 in ‘G mivor (Max Bruch), (a) in- troduction recitativo, (b) andante maestoso, (c) finale alle con spirito, M. Achille Rivarde; “Lucia di Lammermoor” (Donizetti), orchestra and harp solo by Mme. Marquadt; “Choeur des Fileuses,” ‘“Vaisseau Fantome" (Wagner-Liszt), (b) glomlu in A major (Cho- pin), M. Aime Lachaume; aria from “Henry VIIT Hongre act * (Saint-Saens), William H. Keith; Airs ise (Ernst), M. Achille Rivarde; finale, Vie Pour le Czar” (Gliuka), orchestra. KICKED HIS NOSE OFF. Painful if Not Fatal Accident to Little Millard Buckman, Who Played ‘With a Horse. Little Millard, the six-year-old boy of Frank Buckman, residing at 427 Thirteenth street, is lying, disfigured and at the point of death, in his little cot at the home of his heart-broken parents. The innocent child met with a most cruel and painful accidert Sunday after- noon, and there are grave doubts as to his recovery. frank Buckman, the father of the in- jured child, is foreman for his brother, Al Buckman, the prominent contractor. As Little Millard Buckman, Whose Face Was Terribly Mutilated Yesterday by a Kicking Horse. such he has many teamsters under his control, and all of them are weil acquainted with little Millard. It has been their habit to allow the child to ride with them, he taking such delight in wielding the whip and shouting | *‘Get up, horsey !"” 8o often had Miltard done this that he had become fearless of horses and re- garded them as his by right, for all | amusement. | This idea came near being his fatal un- doing, and only for his strong co: tution and the prompt action of Dr. W. D. Clark, who arrived in time to stop the hem orrhage, the boy would not bealive to-day. | Mr. and Mrs. Buckman were at church | Sunday afternoon, their baby boy being | left in chbarge of his at” home. Watching his opportunity he made his escape to an empty iot on Thirteenth street, where a vicious horse was staked out. | Millard seized alath and, going up the | animal, began belaboring him, accompany- | ing the blows with the usualadmonition to | ‘“Get up, horsey !” The horse got up and incidentally let fly his rear hoofs, catching the unfortunate | child in the face. | The blow was sickening. It completely | lifted off the upper lip and nose of the | child, leaving the face bare. Yesterday Millard recovered conscious- | ness, but even if his life is spared he will remain_terribly disfigured the remainder of his life. ATTHE CITY PLAYHOUSES, Mrs. Auzerais Hoyte in a New Character at the Alcazar. “Lady Lil” at the Grand Opera. House—Trained Animals at the Auditorium. “The Politician, or the Woman’s Plank,” that satirical production which last week delighted the audiences at the New California Theatre, was again pre- sented last night to a fairly good house that enjoyed the shafts directed at the voliticians of the day, and incidentally at woman suffrage. The play will be con- tinued on the boards during the week and will be followed by burnt cork, when the Primrose & West Ministrels will appear behind the footlights. The Aloazar. There was & good Monday-night house at Grover’s Alcazar to witness the production of “My Son-in-law,” in which Mrs. Auzerais Hoyte assumed the character of the jealous wife of Professor Bisbon, head of a dancing academy. This is Leonard Grover’s favorite, and one of t comedies—one full of life, fun and oyoking sitvations. Miss Violet Aubrey, who has just returned from the East, made her first appearance as Miss Daisy Uppers, a bashful maiden, who | falls in love upon the order of her dearly beloved mamma. The Grand Opera-House, There was not a crowded buta good house to witness the firet production of “Lady Lil"” at the Grand Opera-house. It is a semi-mili- tary play full of sensational and thrilling situ- ations, in which Lisle Leigh appeared as | Lady Lil, an equestrienne, a part that calls for considerabie ability. In the second act there is a thrilling scene. Buda (Eugene Moore), in front of a nunnery, is manipulating a telegraph instrument to convey messages of importance during 8 battle, and while there he was shot and dies, surrounded by runs who sing & touching hymn. While this is going on the nunnery is bombarded and destroyed by fire. In the next act there is a circus scene. The Orpheum. The trans-oceanic combination was the drawing card at the Orpheum Music Hall last night, the house being crowded to the same extent that it was each night the previous week. The comicalities of Edward and Josie Fvans, the descriptive singing by Horace W. F. Benners, and Fulgore, the transfigurator, were as enteriaining as on previous occasions, but the greatest of all was the performance of the l’flipuunns. the Rossow Brothers, whose boxing match roused the audience to the highest pitch of enthusiastic excitement, At the Auditorinm, A very little mule—one of the kind you see in Mexico—came running out on the stage at orium last night and, pausing before the footlights, made his bow to & crowded house of spectators and then went throuwh a very amusing pantomimic imitation of a per- son delivering an address.

Lee, to resort to charging. 8o it came to pass on the morning of the 25th day of March, 1865, he made a break through the Union lines and opened the way to City Point, which, if he could have reached and held, would have prolonged the Civil War for at least another year. The preliminaries were well arranged. First of all 100 men appeared in front of our picket line and announced themselves as North Carolina deserters. They were all armed, but the officer in charge of our | {;ickuw welcomed them and told them to | ring in their guns, as General Grant had recently issued an order commanding his quartermasters to pay tor all guns brought in from the rebel ranks. So this hundred of armed men were graciously invited to | march in behind our pickets. ~When once | there they turned suddenly upon the astonished Union troops and requested them to surrender in words too impolite to print. And the pickets had no choice but to obey. ‘ In the rear of the picket line stood Forts | Haskell and Stedman, garrisoned by the | Fourteenth New York Artillery, several of | whom belonged in Utica. In the early dawn of that mild March morning the sleeping members of the Fourteenth were awakened by the sharp “Yi! yil” of the rebel troops, who pounced in upon them 10,000 strong or more. Tiey were under the command of General William Mahone of Virginia. After capturing the Four- teenth they were expected to move forward to City Point. But here an obstacle arose that neither Mahone ror General Lee haa foreseen. Tnat obstacle was our supplies of food. It was utterly impossible to get the Confed- | erates, who were actually starving, be- | yond our soft bread and coffee, our fresh | beef and salt pork. The whole body | paused and went to eating. drinking and | | | | | making merry without regard to that 1l-known saying, “For to-morrow we d It was all in vain that General Ma- hone threatened and swore and coaxed his men. They simply would not stir till| they had satisfied their appetites. | This pause was the salvation of the | Union army. Itenabled not only the ma- | jority of the Fourteenth to escape from | their captors, but the other divisions of the Ninth Corps to come to their relief; so that when the rebels were ready to ad- vance they found their way blocked, and they were compelled to retire from the scene of their victory and their breakfast- table back to Petersburg badly beaten, and carrying with them nothing but full stomachs. The foregoing is a brief but truthful ac- count of General Lee’s last charge. In a ligtle more than a week from that day he evacuated Richmond and Petersburg, and in less than another week he surrendered his entire army to General Ulysses S. Grant. — = flsmart Broadway, New | York, druggist has this sigr hanging outside his store; it marks the new era of drug selling, Is it any wonder that he has to enlarge his quar- ters, that his clerks are busy, and that his store is one of the most popular along the leading thor- oughfare? ou can afford to trade with a druggist that has Such 3 motio as that: NEW TO-DAY—AMUSEMENTS.
