Her Name Is Helen Herschel Sherman and Her Father Is Captain of the Whaler, A Yeung Oakland Girl, Craz:d Over Her Lever’s Desertion, Tried to Kill Captain Alcxander. The long-overdue steam whaling bark Beluga arrived in port yesterday after a long cruise in the Arctic. The vessel left Lere in March, 1894, and Captain Sherman and his wife have kept each other com- pany in the frozem north. Since the de- parture of the whaler there has been an aadition to the “all-told” list. in May, 1895, when the Beluga was in her winter, quarters off Herschel Island, a daughter was born to Captain Sherman. The little one was named Helen Herschel Sherman, and ever since she has been the pet of the crew. The first year of her life the littie one spent in the Arctic, and surely never such an experience was the lot of the child of English-speaking parents. She reveled in the ice and snow, and on one occasion, when twelve months oid, had her photograph taken on the ice. She could not stand alone, but four sailors held two ropes, and between them the lit- tle woman halanced herself and was taken by the kodak fiend in the shape of the wife of the captain of the Thrasher. During the run to San Francisco Cap- tain Sherman was a very sick man with a strained back and Mrs. Sherman was laid up with rheumatism. Little Helen was, tierefore, left in a great measure to the tender mercies of the crew, and a queen never reigned over more willing subjects. She was monarch of all she surveved and her right there was none to dispute, be- | cause from the chief officer down to the | cebin-boy all bowed down before Miss Helen and her slightest nod was law. The men worshiped the little one, and the privilege of holding her for ten or fifteen minutes repaid them for an extra trick at the wheel or for the call of all hands when sail had to be shortened. Helen Herschel Sherman is the first child of American parents, and 1n fact the firstchild of English-speaking parents, that has been born so far north. If she lives and the question is asked her in vears to come ‘‘Where were you born?” her answer will be “On board the steam whaler Beluga, in the ice off the mouth of the McKenzie River. The Beluga was a long time reaching San Francisco. She putinto Plover Bay | to land the nat members of the crew | and later on the machinery was_disabled. Chief Engineer Pierson managed to fix up the damage and she came along under —— Helen Herschel Sherman, The first child of European parents ever born as far north as the Mackenzie River. The Jittle one arrived here on the Beluga yesterday, easy steam, Headwinds kept her back and when the southeaster was met nearly all the sails were blown out of the boit ropes. The fog was ‘‘thick enough to cnt’’ according to Chief Officer Thatcher and for a week it was impossible to see the sun. When the first observation was taken the vessel was off Point Sur and the course had to be shaped anew for San Francisco. Headwinds and storms were again encountered and in consequence the Beluga made an unusually long trip. The Beluga brought down 21.000 pounds of whalebone, 23,554 barrels of whale oil, 170 pounds of ivory, 17 bear skins, 218 fox skins, 25 musk skins, 4 wolf skins and 6 beaver skins. In ail twenty whales were taken, eleven being caught and tried out during the last month of the season. The vessel has been unusually successful and the crew was jubilant as she started up the bay to the Arctic Oil Works yester- day. (’:’aplain Alexander of the steamer Santa Rosa had an experience he is not likely to iorget in'a hurry during the last trip of his vessel. He was clawed and bitbya maniac, and had it not been for the inter- ference of bystanders he might have lost his life. As it was, the young woman who tried to end his life escapea, but was after- ward recaptured and again placed on the Banta Rosa. Many months ago Miss Hattie Cotler of Oakland had an sitercation with her parents and, leaving home, went to live with some relatives on a ranch near San Diego. There she met a young man with whom shé fell in love, and the day for the marriage was set, She got her weuding gar- menis ready and w: rrayed for the cere- mony wher the hour came around. The groom did not put in an appearance, and after wailing several hours the guests had %o be dismissed. It was then that Miss Cotler’s mind 5"; way and her relatives decided to send her home. While the Santa Rosa was at Santa Barbara Captain Alexander thought it wou!d be sale to take the young lady up- town on the cars. There was quitea walk from the steamer to the car terminus, and the gallant captain attempted to make the journey interesting by pointing out differ- ent landmarks on the way. Sudden. Miss Cotler flew at him like a tigress, ani without a word of warning began scratch- ing and clawing. She asserted that Alex- ander was the man who was to have mar- ried ber, and vowed she was going to have her revenge. She was finally subdued, and later was locked up in her stateroom, Captain Alexander heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the last of her yuurdaz morning. The young woman is now wit! her relatives in Oakland, and will proba- bly be sent to a private asylum. ptain James G.

The Abbey Bocial Club is to have a great celebration next Sunday night in honor of the election of McKinley. The club is composed of water-front Republicans, and while they meetin *The Abbey’ at Sau- salito all the officers have yautical desiz- nations. W, F.

The principal duty of the boat- swain will be to keep out intruders, and see that the sailors keep tag on the wine drunk by the officers. There should be a jolly time av the Abbey to-morrow night, and McKinley’s health is sure to be drunk with three times three. The tug Reliance, which has a patented corrugated propeller, isto have a regular trial next week. Last Thursday she had a trial of speed with the Alert end beat that vessel 4 minutes 25 seconds in the run from Folsom-street wharf to Hunters Point. Later she towed in the Liswellyn J. Morse against wind and tide and Cap- tain Brockaw admitted that the new wheel did good service. The bark Martha Davis is loaded for Honolulu and Captain_Soule expects to get away to-morrow. The Mohican goes to Green street to load for the Hawaiian republic and the Santiago is loading at Pacitic strect for the same port. It would thus seem that the only rush of merchan- Iulu. made a very quick run {o San Francisco. He brought his vessel here in ten and a half days, beating some of the fastest sail- ers in the sugar fleet. He is quite a young man, but is making a fine record as a smart master. The Mohican was never classed amone the fast vessels, but it seems that Captain Saunders is going to make a record-breaker out of ner. J. H. Barry and wife, the former editor of the Star, went north yesterday on the Walia Walla. He goes to Victoria and then to Seattle, to be absent about ten days, mainly on pleasure, Congressman James G. Maguire, Sheriff Whelan and wife, Captain Mackay, L. W. Lovey and others were at the wharf to see the editor off. . There was an_exchange of wit be- tween Barry and Whelan, who was solicit- ous for his friena’s welfare, as this was the first vacation taken by the editor for twenty years. Mr. Barry Teturned passes sent him for the trip, and paid for his own and wife's tickets, like any other passen- ger. Must Report Cases.

Jumped About Sixteen Feet toa Hard Pavement Without Injury. | Oificer Grunwald Mystified That the | Chinese Should Appeal to Him for Aid. | The tale of the alieged kidnaping of | Chow Ute, the pretty 15-year old Chinese | girl placed in the Presbyterian Mission Home last Monday, has taken a rather peculiar turn. The girl now denies that she was abducted, but asserts, on the con- trary, that she went away willingly with Low Yuen Yue. Not content with a denial of her former statements in regard to leaving, she goes even further and denies that she was mar- ried to any of the brothers Yuen, of whom it now appears there are three. In view of her denial the criminal ele- | ment has necessarily disappeared from the | | case, and Officer George Grunwald, who | had been industrionsly engaged in search- ing for the alleged abductors, ceased his efforts last night. The mysterious element of the case still remains. It is hard to tell why the three Chinese should approach two police officers at 5 o’clock in the morning und offer to remunerate them well for assisting establishment on Dupont street, near Cali- | fornia, when the eirl was perfectly willing | to go anv place they wished. *‘That is hard to explain,’”’ said Grun- { wald last night. *“If the girl had gone along quietly with them no one would have paid any attention to the party. “‘But they came deliberately and askea i | us to help them, thus making themselves liable to detection, and, further, offered a bribe.”” Another strange factor in the affair is that the girl claims she jumped from a window fifteen or sixteen feet from the ground to the hard concrete pavement be- neath. As the front and rear doors of the Mission were securely locked and the keys in the possession of the superintendent this is balieved by the teachers to be true. The girl says that only one Chinese was waiting for her, and that she jumped into his arms. Her slightly abrased cheek and the wrenching of a lower limb bears this statement out. STATUARY FOR CHUROHES. Waldteufel’s Importation to Be Investi- gated by the Grand Jury. The United States Grand Jury will soon make matters very uncamfortable for the Waldteufel heirs or assigns, who keep a stationery, art and statuary store at 723 Market street. About two months ago Special Agent of the Treasury Moore dis- covered that Waldteufel had displayed for sale in his store window three pieces of statuary which Moore thought had been fraudulently passed through the Custom-house from France. He made a careful investigation and found that a priest at Banning had or- dered two pieces of statuary for his church through the Market-street firm, and in order to have the statuary exempt from duty he affirmed upon oath and in writing that the sacred ‘ornaments were for the church. After the priest had signed for two it was discnvered that an insertion had been made whereby the statuary was increased from two to five pieces, and yet in the long run the priest received only the two that he had bargained for. Upon the presentation of this evidence to the Col- lector of Customs the three pieces of statu- ary were seized by the customs offic who eventually arrived at the conclusion, N in removing the girl from over the cigar | ® that perjury and forgery had been com- mitted in order to get the whole consign- ment through the Custom-house. The case has been in the hands of the Collector for several weeks, butno move was made so far as could be learned until yesterday, when the facts were presented to United States District Attorney Foote. When the new United States Grand Jury is selected next Tuesday Mr. Foote will vresent the facts to that body for further investigation. MRS, MARTIN’S SANITY. Examination Into the Mental Condition of the Young Woman Who Killed Her Husband. Mrs. Susie B. Martin, who shot and killed her husband last February, and who was acquitted of the charge of mur- der because of her insanity, appeared in Judge Wallace’s court yesterday to have her present mental condition passed on by a iury. Very little time was occupied in filling the jury-box, only one talesman being excused from duty. A number of witnesses who testified at the trial which resulted in Mrs. Martin’s acquittal —including Fred Frey, B. M. Egan, Charles Crockett, Mrs.” Anna A. Foster, Mrs. Susie Musante, Jerome Deasy, Mrs. Sarah Deasy, T.J. Quigley and Dr. C. W, Card—were again called on to tell what they knew of Mrs. Martin’s mental condition, No material difference from the testi- mony given last week was noted, and but little interest was aroused except in the examination of Dr. Card. Deputy District Attorney Hinkle at- tempted to show by Dr. Card that Mrs. Martin is a dangerous person to beat large, and asked the phbysician, who at- tended her before and after the killing of her husband, whether a similar stress of excitement would be likely to cause a re- turn of that homicidal mania which,it was admitted, had caused the death of a human being. Atttorney Eddy objected to this course of examination, as he said it wounld be try- ing to convict a person on a possibility in the future, a remote contingency which he thought the law woald not recognize. Judge Wallace replied that under a well- known rule of law things once proved to exist are presumed to continue as long as is reasonable with things of that nature, and allowed the question. Dr. Card replied that he would not give ositive opinion touching a recurreuce of the homicidal mania. The hearing of testimony will be re- sumed at 10 o’clock next Monday morning. e e THANKSGIVING.

Argument in Regard to the Right of Inspecting the Dacument. That Which Was Offered as a Cour- tesy Finally Gfantcd by an Order of the Court. There was a breezy scene in Judge Slack’s court yesterday morning when the application of Attorney Reuben H. Lloyd for a chance to examine the deed of the late James G. Fair, conveying certain property to Mrs., Nettie R. Craven, was called for hearing. The proceedings disclosed the fact that there was an undercurrent of feeling ex- isting in the minds of opposing counsel that even the cool exterior, so well as- sumed by veteran membersof the bar, could not entirely conceal. Before beginning with the argument D. M. Delmas, representing the interests of Mrs. Craven, announced to the court that so far as he was concerned he had no ob- jection to the inspection of the document by any person interested in the case. He said that the document had already been submitted to the scrutiny of some of the attorneys on the other side, and when ap- plication was made a day or two ago for an additional opportunity to inspect it the gentlemen were informed that they were welcome to make any legitimzate use of the document that they might desire. Noi- withstanding this assurance on the part | of himself and the gentlemen associated with him this motion foran order of court to procure the thing thet had been volun- tarily offered was brought iute court. Judge Slack smiled gently and remarked that he suppo:ed, under the circum- stances, it would not be necessary to fur- ther press the application then on hear- ing. glr. Lloyd, who represents the heirs of J. G. Fair, said that notwithstanding Mr. Deimas’ courteous offer, it was a fact that on the day that this order was asked for, an application for an inspection of the deed was refused. Attorney Denson, wno sat with Mr. De!mas, asked permission to explain that circumstance. He said that he was pres- ent when the demand for an inspection of the deed was made. A deposition was being taken at the time, and when the deed was asked for the reply was made that they were not at that moment in possession of the document, ana, there- fore, must decline to comply with the re- quest. An offer was made to procure it later. He said it was not Mr. Delmas who declined to produce the document. Mr. Lloyd retorted that it was Mr. Del- mas’ representative with whom he was dealing at that time, and he considered that his acts were the same as the acts of Mr. Delmas. Garret McEnerney, who is engaged in another branch ef the case and who was willing to have the examination of the paper procured with as little friction as possible, endeavored to pour oil on the troubled waiers. He thought that Mr. Delmas’ offer ought to be considered suffi- cient. He trusted that the application for the order would not be pressed by Mr. Lloyd. A settlement on that basis seemed im- minent, when Attorney Wheeler sug- gested, sotto voce, that Mr. Deimas ought to be required to set a day when the docu- ment might be inspected, and Mr. Lioyd said as much to the courtin clearly audi- ble toaes. The fat was in the fire again, for it was apparent that Mr. Delmas did not like to have the proposition put that way. He said that while he was willing to grant the application as a courtesy, yet if the gentleman insisted on it as a right he was prepared to present arguments against it. r. Lloyd was equally unyielding in his position, and the hearing proceeded. Able arguments lasting three hours were offered pro and con, and aiter considera- tion Judge Slack held that Mr. Lloyd and his associates have a right to inspect the deed, and this formality is set for Monaay Blood Pure? Is it? Then take Ayer’s Sar- saparilla and keep itso. Isn’t it? Then take Ayer’s Sarsa- parilla and make it so. One fact is positively established and that is that Ayer’s Sarsa- parilla will purify the blood more perfectly, more economi- cally and more speedily than any other remedy in the mar- ket. There are fifty years of cures behind this statement; a record no other remedy can show. You waste time and money when you take anything to purify the blood except Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. O morning at 10 o’clock at the office of Delmas & Shortridge, this City. So after a labored argument the attorneys for the Fair estate secured only what they might have had for the mere asking. Photogravhs of the instrument are already in the hands of most of the attor- neys opposed to Mrs. Craven, but they seem to be desirous of possessing more artistic photographic copies than they LOW possess The Sword Was Not Clean. Jobn T. Sullivan, who was injured in the sword duel at the Aleazar in “At Fort Bliss night before last, was laid up {n bed yesterday, but able to play his part last night. The wound he received will stay with him for manya day, and Dr. Noble, who dressed it again in the afternoon, fears that blood- poisoning may ensue, as the sword with which he was cut wes not clean.
