The local oarsmen are bitter tuward the South End crew. Against 3ob McArthur and Carson they have not | much to say, but at the rest of the South Ends they are directing complaints. It is understood here that some of the | men of the University aud Alameda Row- ing Club crews admitted after the race | that neither erew rounded the stakeboat.

FAITH-CURISTS Medical Assistance Denied ‘a Dying Woman at Stockton. Prayer Her Only Remedy as She Is Stowly Succumbing to Fever. Vain Appeal of a Father to Save His Dsughter and Her Babe. STOCKTON, Can, Nov. 30.—At 1404 East Hazleton avenue a young mother hes dying of a fever. Her life, it is said, is a sacrifice to religious fanaticism, for she has been surrounded by a band of praying people who would not allow a physician to be called nor make known her condition to her own fataer. This woman, who is about 20 years old and has been married a little less than a year, is the wife of George R. Hawker, a young man employed at whatever work offers itseif. He has been an attendant at the Munro meetings, as has aiso theyoung lady’s mother. Both'are ardent believers in the faith cure, but tbe young woman, according to Alexander H. Quain, her father, is not. According to the father of the sick woman she has not recéived med- ical treatment since the birth of her baby boy. Said he: effre morning my daughter will be dead, I have not the least doubt, and her death will be charged to fanatics who have been surrounding her, and who, in- stead of giving her scme substantial tre: ment or calling in & doctor, have done nothing more than furnish a little lime juice in water, depending on faith to effect a cure. At her side lies a baby boy eleven days old, who, I suppose, has been drink- ing in the germs of the typhoid fever that has brouggt the mother to death’s door, and, of course, he will, in all likelihood, be tLe next one.” s L CAPTURED A SNEAsK-THIEF, Arrest of a Daylight Burglar by a Stockton Citizen. E STOCKTON, CaL, Nov. 30.—Mrs. J. Click noticed a strangs man enter the residence of P. H. Boggs and go upstairs this ‘afternoon. She went over and told Miss Boggs about it. The girl called out to the stranger to inquire what he wanted. and then he ran aown and dashed through the doorway, remarking as he ran that he wanted to see a girl, mentioning the name of some doubtless mythical female. Just then B. F. Kohlberg .passed and the matter was reported to him. He got a-description of the man and followed him. He a$ length came upon the thief at the corner of Sutter and Chanmuel arm and jed him to the police station. The sneak-thief offered no resistance. He gave the name of James Conway and ad- ‘mitted that he had entered the Boggs residence. KELLY CALLS FOR KIS WIFE While - Delirious, the San Jose Shooter Forgets His Crime and Its Consequences. SAN JOSE, Caw, Nov. Kelly, who made an attempt to murder his wife and kill himself jast Saturday morning, is still alive, and his condition | shows little change except that at inter- vals he appears to be delirious. There is not much sign of fever, however, the tem- perature being little above normel and the pulse is strong and regular, The physicians are confident that Kelly will not die for several days, at least, with the chances that after that he may rally and partially recover. Whilzin a semi-conscious state Kelly often calls for Lis wife by her given nszae, “Annie,’’ and at these times he declares that he can hear her voice upstairs. He evidently imagines that he is still at his | jewelry store instead of being at the police receiving hosrpital. Mrs. Kelly’s condition showed a decided improvement to-day, her apoetite being very good and other conditions favorable for her recovery. The buliet in her side has not yet been located, but it is not be- lieved that there is any internal hemor- rhage, as in that case there would have -been decided sinking spells or death would have resulted.

Overturned by a Gale and Thrown Into a Tangle of Barbed Wire. Its Driver Is Frightfully Torn and Gashed, and His D:ath Is Exp:cted. SAN DIEGO, Car., Nov. 30.—A queer accident occurred to the Julian stage this morning, on the run down between Julian and Foster, and it resulfed in a frightful injury to Lee Green, the driver. There were no passengers and the morning was coid, so Green was driving along at a lively jog, running down tne slope from the foot of the Juiian grade to the Santa Isabel store. Coming out upon the slope from the narrow mouth of the canyon leading to the grade a strong wind was en- countered. It increased in force as the stage swept down the valley. There were four horses attached to the coach, which is a huge vehicle of the Concord pattern. It was topheavy, because the mails were on tap and there were no passengers inside to serve as ballast. At = turn in the road a sudden gust caught the big stage on a balance and blew it over, throwing Green half under it and into a tangle of barbed wire. The horses plunged and strnggled to get free, while Green, scared half to death by the prospect of being cut to pieces, tried to crawl out from under the stage. During all the scramble and confusion, however, he pluckily held to the reins and pre- vented the horses from running away. They came to a standstill soon and Green, apparently bleeding to death, managed to make his way down to the Santa Isabel store. The stage was badly wrecked and it was left at Santa lsabel, a wagon con- veying the nails and the wounded driver to Ramona. Green was frightfully cut about the head, face and right shoulder. It is feared his wounds are mortal, and that even if he recovers he will lose an eye and an ear. COLLISION AT GAKVANZA. Two Electric Cars Crash Together and Injure Passengers. LOS ANGELES, Carn, Nov. 30.— Through the carelessness or incompeten- cy of some one unknown to the management of the Pasadena and fanta Monica Electric Railway, with head- quarters in this city, a collision occurred t Garvanza about 6 o’clock to-night. The Sisaster was caused by a misplaced switch. Garvanza is the meeting paint of the Pas- adena and Los Angeles cars. The incoming car to this city runs onto the siding at that point, but in this in- stance it came straight ahead, colliding with the car for Pasadena while both were in motion. The concussion was terrific, and owing o crowded condition of both cars it was only by the greatest good fortune that a large number of persons were not fatally injured. As it wasa number were badly cut by broken glass and otherwise hurt Colonel John D. Frost, a Chicago capital- ist, suffered fractures of the right leg in two places, and G. W. Frost of Tos Angeles had a_foot badly crushed. Both cars were wrecked. -t ICE-BOUND UN YHE COLUMBIA. The Trans-Paciflc Steamship Altmore Held rast by Flo KALAMA, Wasa., Nov. 30.—The Ore- gon Railway and Navigation Company’s chartered steamer Altmore is fast in the jce in the Columbia River, opposite Kalama. The Altmore arrived at Astoria yester- .day, twenty-nine days from Yokohama, with a light cargo. Last evening it left for Portland, and should have arrived there early this morning. 2 It was seen early this forenoon laboring in the ice, which was moving slowly down stream in great floes, many of which were wiled on top of each other. oes pressed against the steamer’s ith great force, and while it was not injured fears were expressed by river men that it might be if the floes from up river become much larger. Later the steamer was turned broadside in the stream and drifted slowly with the current toward Astoria. Some believe that ice got clogged in its condenser-nipes twelve miles. A private telegraph line is to be built into the district by Los Angeles | capitalists. i and temrporarily prevented the use of the engines.
