12 ' THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1896. | CANVAS DIRECT FROM THE SKY Farmer Enos’ Answer to Prayer Ends in a Charge of Theft. Was Not Sent From Heaven, but Was Cast Adrift by an Aeronaut. HE MUST NOW GO TO COURT. Balloonist Vosmer’s Uaique Experi- ence While Trying to Recover His Machine. OAKLAND OrricE SAN FrANCISCO CALL,} 908 Broadway, Oct. 25. Joseph Enos is the proprietor of a ranch near Lone Tree Cemetery. Heis a very devout man and during the hard times of the past three years he has been forced to place his trust in Providence, because he could not find many human beings either trustworthy or willing to trust. Recently Farmer Enos supplicated fervently for the way to be opened by which he might procure enough canvason which to spread out his crop of horse-beans. Last evening, just before suoper time, Enos was electrified to see something de- scending right onto his ranch direct from beaven. As it came rapidly toward the earth Enos saw that it was a large bundle of canvas—just what he had been praying for. Itlanded right at Enos’ feet and he at once saw ample facilities for doing the very best possible for his bean crop. Enos at once proceeded to gather it up and de- cided that so long as his gift had come direct from heaven 1t would not be sacri- “legious to spread it out on the Sabbath and take the first turn out of his horse- beans. Farmer Enos then went into the house and acquainted his family with his good fortune. He had barely completed his story when an athletic young fellow rushed up to the ranch and seeing the heap of canvas at once laid claim to it. Enos protested. It had fallen straight | from the clouds on to his ranch and was his by right of eminent domain, there | Dbeing no title deeas to anything that came irom the sky. Then the stranger, whose name was Vos- mer, told his story. There had been a bal- loon ascension that afternoon at the bar- becue and Vosmer had bade adieu to his balloon at a height of a mile or so above the earth and had departed with his para- chute, at the same time making a mental date with the balloon when he should find it. This dia not satisiy Farmer Enos, who is not posted in aeronautics, and Vosmer had to reiurn without his balloon. The balloonist’ at once swore out & war- rant against Enos, and the latter will be brought into court to-morrow morning. Voemer had another engagement to-day for his balloon and was forced to forego it and he declares that he wiil also sue Enos for damag LIST TEST OF THE ST Exzaminations of the New Post- oifice Lot Are Almost Completed. Results Declared by the Government Engineer to Be Entirely Satisfactory. Another crumb of satisfaction for those citizens who are awaiting the completion of & new postoffice is almost ready to be digested. - For over a month Civil En- gineer Moran of this City, working under the direction of United States engineers, has been probing and experimenting in the soil at the corner of Mission and Seventh streets toascertain just what was underneath the surface which would war- rant the erection of a massive structure. In the pursuit of these investizations a stationary engine and a force of men have been engaged in pumping and digging and the residents in the neighborhood have wondered at the stream of muddy water which was conveyed in & trough across the sidewalk. A high board fence shuts out the gaze of the curious and pad- locked gates repell the intrusion of investigators. Just what there is in the operations that warrants such seclusion is not apparent, though it was explained that the work- men were greatly annoyed wilth junk- seekers, who 100K every available oppor- tunity to enter the inclosure and carry x-xwlay such available articles as are port- ahble. Engineer Moran explained that the presence of so much water was not un- expected or unsatisfactory. “We struck water at twelve feet,”” he said, ‘‘about the usual depth of surface water hereabout.” The results, he said, had been in every way sausfactory. No mud had been en- countered, nothing but sand, and sand was the kind of a surtace thatis desired. There have been four test holes dug to the depth of sixteen feet, the pruposed depth of the foundation. The work has been necessarily slow on account of the water which the men encountered at twelve feet. From that down the pump had to be kept constantly at work to ullow the men to dig, and even then it was painful labor lifting out the mud and water. Upon the completion of the present tests, which will probably be in a short time, a report will be made tothe United Biates Enginee: e & ARION IN THE AIR. The Wonderful Feat of an Artist on a Live Trolley Wire. Arion, the wonderful man who walks on a tight wire at a dizzy height, made his first appearance at the Haight-sireet grounds yesterday in the presence of a large number of people. This individual, who has on a wire crossed over Niagara Falls twelve times, gave an exhibition of his skill at an elevation of sixty-nine feet above the lake. He walked on a 200-foot stretch of wire with as much ease as if he were on a sidewalk; walked with a basket on his feet; then encased himself in a large grain sack, and walked in that man- ner, after which he carried a large bundle on his back. When midway between the platforms he opened this, which consisted of mattress, pillows and blanket. At the dizzy height he made up a bed, covered bimseif with the blanket, and laid down at full length, apparently as contented as 1if he were on a hundred-doilar bedstead. It was a wonderful feat of balancing. In ad- dition, he did some trapeze work on the wire and hung by his toes. In the even- ing he repeated the performances, and supplemented them by riding on a live tmlrey wire with a grooved-wheel bicycle. He and the wheel were illuminated with seventy-five electric lights of various colors, the effect being startling and mag- nificent. The act was a pretty one 1o ob- serve, but extremely risky, and one that not many would care to undertake. —————————— POLITICS EVERYWHERE. There Is No Escape, Not Even by the Sad Sea Waves. There were thousands of people who went to the ocean beach yesterday in the hope that they might enjoy a few hours of rest from the din of politics that is to be heard 1n the City; but great was their dis- appointment. On every side their eyes were greeted with immense posters an- nouncing the candidacy of some one anx- ious to fill an office. Politicians occupied the roads leading to_the Cliff and on the balconies of the Cliff House they were as thick as delegites at a National conven- tion, and they were busy buttonholing every one they could and aavancing the merits of the respective individuals they advocated. There was no escape from politics for those who sought to have a short rest. There was a good attendance at the baths and much fun was created by the ampbibous act of Cornell and Empey, il- lustrative of “‘Farmer Hayseed beaten by a bunco-steerer by meansof the gold brick trick.” Dave Thompson gave a fine exhi- bition of high, fancy and trapeze diving, and Cornell and Empey verformed the mystifving drown act in a manner so clever as to win for them much avplause. ——————— UNION SOAPMAKERS. They Elect Officers and Indorse Several Political Candidates. At the annual meeting of the Associated Soapmakers’ Union recently the following officers were elected for the ensuing term: J. F. Ahearn, president; Thomas Turn- bull, vice-president; directors—Edward Tepper, M. Sbarboro and M. J. O’Con- nor. The secretary’s report showed 385 members on the union roll. The following candidates for municipal offices were indorsed by tke union: R.W. Heilman, for Supervisor of the Ninth Ward; George W. Elder, Superintendent of Streets. HE LIFTED THE PANEL How Mr. Bouton’s Visitor Last Sunday Entertained Him- self. He Went Through Every Nook in the House and Overlooked a Large Sum of Money. Last Sunday afternoon a burglar called at 217 Thirteenth street, the residence of Superintendent Hart Bouton of the Le Grand Laundry. He found the family out, but this did not deter him from mak- ing a pleasant stay of it, and he doubtless went away well satisfied with his social venture. The doors were inhospitably locked when he arrived, but he pried a back window on the ground floor up, tear- ing out the etrong screw with which it was fastened, and easily let himself into The Lifted Panel, the dining-room. Then he carefuily went through that department and 1ts closets, spreading the articles which he cared to examine out on the table. All of the doors leading from this room he found locked, but he aid not mind that and tackled one of them with his good jimmy. He split a large splinter off the door near the lock, but the iaithful bolt resisted him and he went for one of the lower panels. This was soon opened, mak- ing as nice a square hole ab the heart of a burglar could wish. The rest was easy sailing, and the vis- itor took in every room at his leisure. Nothing escaped his close scrutiny from cellar to garret. Trunks, bureaus, boxes and shelves were overbauled and even the bed clothing of all the sleeping apart- ments were heaped on the floor. Pockets of wearing apparel were turned inside out, and even the furniture of the kitchen was overhauled. Then he went out by the front aoor, leaving it wide open. ‘When Mrs. Bouton returned she hardly knew her house, but soon missed jewelry and small articles cf value that had departed with the burglar. Notwithstanding his care he missed quite a large sum of money that only escaped him because it was lying on the mantel i1 full view. Mrs. Bouton at first hesitated to give any information regarding the matter, because the detectives had sworn her to secrecy a week ago, explaining that they could not recover the stolen articles if the affair got into the papers. —————— JAPAN’S NEW WARSHIPS. Commander Narita Thinks the Union Iron Works Will Be Favored. Among the arrivals from the Orient yesterday 1n the unexpectediy early Coptic wasa party of Japanese consisting of Com- mander K. Narita of the imperial Japanese navy; 8. Uchida, Japanese Consul, on his way to New York; Y. Wooyeno, also bound for the New York legation, and T. Iida, a merchant of Japan. Commander Narita saw service in the late Japanese-Chinese war, and is particu- larly interested now in the further devel- opment of Japan’s navy. He says that he feels almost sure that the Union Iron Works will receive a contract for some of the new warships contemplated by his Government, though nothing official has yel come from the naval department. All the members of the party are enthu- siastic silverites and are opposed to Mec- Kinley and his protective policy. s Died in the Hospital, Officer George Anderson found a men lying on the grass in Portsmouth Square yesterday afternoon and had him conveyed to the Re- ceiving Hospital, where he died immediately aiter his arrival. The body was turned over to the Morgue, where it remains, having been labeled “Unidentifiea.” Nothing found on his person revealed his identity. The following note was found in his pocket: October 20, 1896.

The Kyrie opens quietly and the chorus comes to a climax. Christe Eleison is worked out themartically. This isfollowed by a tenor solo and ends with a quartet, the first movement being repeated ard ending with a coda. The Gloria, in B flat major, is a spirited movement in two-half time. At the Et in Terra Pax the key changes to G flat major and eventually returns to the original key, when the Laudamus Te is taken up. The Gratias Agimus is presented first with a duet for soprano and alto in G minor, followed by a short tenor solo and a somewhat dramatic soprano rendition. The Qui Tollis is a massive movement for the bassos to which the other voices re- ply. The Quoniam opens in the bassos with a theme in three-fourth time, poco vivace, which 1s worked up thematically through all the voices. The Cum Sancto brings a new theme which the tenors take up, and is also repeated and brought to a climax in the Amen by the other voices. The Credo enters with the strong chorus and some dramatic movement leading a descending chromatic scale to the Et Incarnatus Est, a soprano-solo with fslow fmeas- ure, the chorus coming in at the Crucifixus, the whole ending with a quartet modula- A. F. Lejeal, 2 Talented Composer. Alois F. Lejeal’s new mass (No. 5), unpublished, but just finished, was rendered yesterday at the Church of Notre Dame des Victoires. The music world of this City was on hand to hear the maestro’s effort, and agrees with the lay circle that 1t is his best work and entitled to pre-eminence anywhere. It is for solo, quartet and chorus, which is better understood as ‘“‘in four parts.” The movement of The Et Resurrexit consists of a vivace movement in three-quarter time which The Et in Spiritum Sanctum is presented as a basso solo and is followed by an alla capella movement for voices without accompaniment. The close of the Credo is made by a chorus in the original vivace movement. An Ave Maria, written independently from the mass, was rendered by Edgar Atkinson and William Nielsen to a cello obligato by Mr. Gutterson. piece was an unusual combination of barytone and basso. The Sanctus, in D major, maestoso, works up pianissimo to the Pleni, which is This creditable The Benedictus, in G major, is a duo for soprano and tenor, a suave movement Agnus Dei opens with an alto solo in B flat minor, followed by a short Tuti on the end where comes in the Miserere Nobis chorus, and then the duet for soprano and Dona Nobkis closes the mass. Itisa somewhat lively movement in B flat major, in which is presented a trio for soprano, alto and tenor. the final theme with responses from the other voices, and the conclusion is given with a theme taken from the Kyrie movement with which the mass is opened. In anticipation of the great musical treat in store for them, the usual attendance at the Sunday service was greatly increased by the musically inclined. The artists who rendered the music were: Sopranos—Miss Florence Garrissere, Miss C. Cooney, Miss Adele Rottanzi, Miss Sylvia Rottanzi, Mrs. L. Valerga; altos—Miss Anna Grozilliere, Miss N. O'Rourke, Miss E. Johnson, Miss Irene G. Mull; tenors—James B. Lane, Bank Somers, David R. Wise, Louis Van der Mehden; bassos—John McAuliffe, Wilhelm Nielsen, Wiiliam Stadtfeld, Edgar Atkinson, F.

Provisions of a Proposed Act That Will Probably Be- come a Law. PRISON-MADE GOODS DISCUSSED Recommendations on Various Pro- posed Laws to Go Before the Legislature. The California Laber Convention held its third session yesterday at 915} Market street, with a representative delegation from the trades unions of San Francisco, Oakland and San Jose. James Rose occu- pied the chair. State Labor Commis- sioner Fitzgerald and his chief deputy, Mr. Dam, were present and took part in the discussion of proposed labor laws to be presented to the State Legislature. The following delegates presented cre- dentials and were seated : \tionary Engineers—D. W. McCarthy. kers' and Confectioners’ Union No. 42— : Gama. kers’ and Confectioners’ Union No. 24— W...iam Holub. Theatrical Employes’ Protective Union— Charles Batterman, William Dove, John Quar- relis. Carpenters and Joiners—C. Jackson. Bricklayers’ Union—H. Pleace, J. Cal laghanan, G. A. Lafayette, Granite-cutters’ Union—W. ‘A. Sargent, Charles Coyle. John Grant. Boiler-makers and gron-ship - Builders—E. Payne, C. J. Gllberts. % The committee on resolutions reported it had met Thursday evening and consid- ered various laws. Bill 2, providing for the proper sanitary ;condition of bakeries and the preservation of health of bakers, referred pack to the committee, was presented, with un amendment, as follows: For the purpose of enforcing the provisions or this act the Labor Commissioner shall ap- point a bakeshop inspector, who shall be & practical journeyman baker, whose term of office and powers shall be the same and on the same condaitions and who shall receive the same compensation as Deputy Labor Comm is- sioners authorized by section 11 of an act en- titled An act to establish and support a labor bureau. The bill was further amended by insert- ing in the title, after ‘bakeries,”” the words “hotels and public restaurants,” and “‘providing for the appointment of a bakehouse inspector.” The amendments were adopted, with a suggestion by the Labor Commissioner that the inspector be empowered to issue a certificate to the owner of a bakery that is conducted in compliance with all pro- visions of the act; but where orders are issued by the inspector to improve the condition of a bakery no such certificate shall be issued until such orders and the provisions of the act shall have been com- plied with. This, 100, was incorporated, and then the bill as a whole was adopted. Bill 4, an act to provide for a bond for the protection of laborers upon public ‘work, was laid over awaiting the opinion ln! the Attorney-General, which, Labor 1 00 PUBLIC WORK I Commissioner Fitzgerald said, would be reaty for the'next meeting. Biil 8, an act to add to the Political Code of California two new sections regu- lating the hours of labor in bakeries, was also laid over for the Attorney’s opinion. The proposed act to provide for branding all articles manufactured in prison stirred the convention considerably. The Labor Commissiover announced that the presi- dent of the Prison Commission had filed his report with the Governor, but would be glad to make a supplemental report containing suggestions from the conven- tion upon this question. Delegate Macarthur protested that the bill only legalized prison-made zoods, and he held that prisons should manufacture nothing for public use. The convicts, he said, should be compelled to cultivate the land about the prisons to produce food for their support. 5 P. H. McCarthy argued that it was a serious question. Even in the Affiliated Colleges contracts there were indications that convict granite will be used. A dele- gate from the Granite-cutters’ Union spoke against permitting convicts in California State prisons to manufacture granite. The Labor Commissioner suggested that a committee be appointed by the conven- tion to confer with the Prison Commis- sioners, “It is impossible,” said he, ‘‘to make a brand that will distingunish prison- made articles coming from other States. A silk thread in eloth is said to be a brana, but you cannot see it. At San Quentin a strip of red in‘the jute bags is a brand of convict-made goods, but few people know that fact. The only way to deal with this question is to brand the place that sells convict goods, ‘Prison-made goods sold here.’ "’ Macarthur moved that a committee of tive be appointed in contormity with the suggestion of Fitzgerald, and also to con- fer with the Manufacturers’ and Pro- ducers’ Association. This committee will consider the pro- posed bill in conference with the Prison Commissioners and Manufacturers’ Asso- ciation. It is as follows: John Grant, Guy Lathrop, George Lafayette, T. Kealy and W. Macartbur. Bill 11,,which_provides for the remis- sion of costs in Justices’ courts in actions to recover for personal services, was adopted without amendment. The same action was taken upon a proposed act *‘to prevent collusion between employers of labor and employment agents.’’ _The convention was badly divided in its views upon bill 13, which provided for the employment of citizens of the United States upon public works within tnis State. Delegate Furnseth of the Coast Seamen’s Union moved that the whole bill be stricken out on the ground that it was unjust to honestlabor. Other dele- gates spoke in favor of the law because it would prectude aliens from State employ- ment. ‘The opposition maintained that nolaw should be introduced that might split up labor. In the debate ensuing amendments to the motion and a motion on the recommendation of the committee onresolutionscreated a tangle. Furuseth’s motion was lost, and the bill was eventu- ally referred back to the committee to submit to the Attorney-General for his opinion upon a recent decision of the New York Supreme Court declaring the same law unconstitutional. Bill 14, an act to provide for a lunch hour for employes, was stricken out, as the convention concluded that it could not be enforced. Bill 15, an act to provide for the protection of life and property against in- secure steam boilers, and ior the establish- ment of a system of inspection of steam boilers and for the licensing of en- gineers and boiler attendants was in- indorsed, with the proviso that the word “Union” be retained in qualifying boiler- makers. The convention adopted bill 16, an act providing for the payment of employes upon discharge or resignation from ser- vice, rejecting No. 17, an act to prevent bhckliuing of employes. The last bill, No. 18, providing for costs in actions for the price of labor or services was amended to include all firms and em- pl’?ars, and then adopted. e convention adjourned until. next Thursday to then take up the recommen- dations of the State Attorney-General. IS “PINK-EYE" | EPIDEMIC HERE? Disease of Human Optics Which Has Recently Appeared. Oculists Say From What They Hear It Seems Like a Recognized Trouble. LOCAL CASES ARE FEW. But in Other Parts of the Stats the Affliction Has Taken Large Proportions. A painful disease of the eyes has made its appearance in this City. Some observers believe it to be a new disease to this City. On the other hand oculists and specialists on eye diseases think that it is not new. Half a dozen oculists said that they had not yet seen cne case of the complaint, but from the symptomms, as they wefe de- scribed, they all felt sure that the malady is not novel. One oculist said that probably the com- plaint is what has been popularly styled ‘“pink eye,” from its resemblance to the malady which afflicts horses and other an- imals, and which is generally so desig- nated. There have been many cases in parts of Sonoma County. An epidemic existed in the town of Sonoma not long ago. The first cases observed in this City have been noticed within the past few days. These have not been numerous so far. The speed with which the disease spread through Sonoma County issignificant con- cerning what may happen in this City. Whole tamilies have been afilicted in the town of Sonoma and perhaps in other communities in the Sonoma Valley. The attendance at schools has been interfered with largely. At onetime it was supposed that a victory had been won over the troublesome complaint. Then one child had sore eyes. A child sitting next in school soon had the old trouble. Notwith- standing extreme care and the taking of many precautions a whole family of chil- aren had it one after another. The duration varies from a few days to two or thres months, according to the se- verity of the case, and also according to the treatment. The eyes become inflamed and copiously suppurate. An intense pain is felt and the eyes seem ready to start from their sockets. This lasts fora long time, without intermission unless remedies are promptly used. In Sonoma County a tonic for the system was admin- istered by the local physicansand an eye salve was applied to the inflamed lids with good result. Great care is necessary to prevent the spread of contagion. This ought to be un- derstood because there is little reason to suppose that the malady will spread less rapidly here than it has in the Sonoma Valley. Oculists recall that an epldemic of a similar sort passed over the Pacific Coast some years ago. The disease was about the same as pmnk-eye. Western communities, by this being meant ghe towns and cities of the middle Western States, have been extensively afflicted. Owing to the fact that the appearance of the eye trouble in this City has been only recently observed the eye specialists have no knowledge of it more than from hear- say. Br. Barkan said that he had nothad any cases. His assistants at the Cooper Medi- cal College had not reported any. He did not know that there is an epidemic. There is a possibility of contagion. Probably the disease is not new to this coast. There may be a catarrhal affection of the con- junctiva. There are several catarrhal ail- ments. One is known as spring catarrh. It is contagious. Further than this Dr. Barkan did not care to speak uatil he should have received further information. Grant Sellfridge, who has an office in the Crocker building, said at once that tbe malady must resemble what is commonly called *‘pink-eye,”” from its resemblance to the illness which affects animals. There might be an epidemic yet. The malady could not have become epidemic in this City yet, because the oculists have no re- ports concerning it, so far as he could learn. No one had previously reportéd a case to him. Dr. Kaspar Pischl said that he had not received any report concerning this eye trouble, but he did not believe that any new discase had been discovered. This is & fair summary of what was said by other oculists. Meanwhile a féw men downtown’ are gomng around with sore eyes, and form a nucleus from which an epidemic may arise. C000 MINES N MEKC A Large Amount of American Capital Flowing In for Investment. Ex-Assemblyman Mack on the Poor Corn Crop and Finding of Minerals. Ex-Assemblyman P. H. Mack of Inyo County, who is engaged in some large mining enterprises in Mexico, is at the Russ. Mr. Mack is mining at Guanajuato, an old city of 60,000 inhabitants, a thou- sand miles below El Paso, in the State of Guanajuato. “I have been going to that part of Mex- ico now for many months,” said Mr. Mack ‘Wednesday. “There are alot of good mines there, inciuding both:silver and gold. A large amount of capital is going in from many different parts of the United States, and the country is unusually prosperous. There have been bad crops in several of the Mexican States, however, and corn, which is the principal crop, has to a large extent been a failure. ‘‘Because of this, American corn is al- lowed to go into two of these States free of duty. 1n these States there has been al- mostno corn crop. Thereisa good deal of poverty among the common people. Itis estimated that there are 6,000,000 poor people in Mexico, but the larger share of them are Indians who have always been poor, and some natives who have been poor and whose ancestors have been poor for many geunerations. | “In spite of this poverty, however, Mexico is more prosperous now than it ever has been. The capital that is coming in for investment there is helping the country out in a great many ways. It ig lubricating things and making times bet- ter for everybody. “I consider Mexico a remarkably good country for enterprising men to make money _in. The Governor of the State where I am is a very capable man, and he is looking after the interests of the people }:fi a way that is highly creditabla to m.
