D. Bryant Steal the Ship's Boat. They Broke the Chain That Bound Them acd Finally Reached Shore. The American Schooner Nokomis Mad> a Smart Voyage From the Hawaiian Isles. The American schooner Nokomis got in | from Hilo, Hawaiian Islands, yesterday 0 the smart time of tweive days. She made a pretty pictare as she rurled her sails and droppea anchor in the vicinity of the Swanhilda. Captain Roos says that it was the roughest voyage he ever experienced, and that he sighted nothing in the shape of a sail from the day he left Hilo until he reached the Farallones. The wind being fair he refused & tow and sailed into port. The Nokomis is sugar- laden and will go to the refinery to-day. There was more trouble among the men on the C. D. Bryant yesterday. When Captain Lee sailed his vessel into port he had {wo stowaways in {rons. Themen re- fused to work, so they were put on a bread and water diet. Last Wednesday night they were locked up 2s usual, and the chief « saw 10 it that they were curely handcuffed together. rday morning they were gone and the captain’s gig. The latier was ed up by an incoming towboat and red to the barkentine. Laterin the he men up at the Harbor reru aay Police station and gave themseives up. They had managed to sever the chain that turned kepi them together, but could not get off the cuffs and they wanted Captain Dun- leavy 1o help them out. The latter lis- tened to_their tale of woe and went for Captain Lee. The latter said he did not want to prosecute them, and said if they would row the boat back to the C. D. Bry- ant he would give them & noie to the mate instructing him to unlock the hand- cuffs and let them go. This the men agreed 10 do, and laier on_they were put - | ashore and now they say they will prose- cute Captain Lee for cruelty. Deputy Sheriff Harris of Tulare County | was in an awkward predicament yester- | day. He had a prisoner with him who hud been sentenced 10 a long term in San Quentin, but, unfortunately, when he reached the Tiburon ferry he discovered that he had left the commitment papers behind him. He took his man over to the Harbor Police station and explamed his predicament. Captain Dunieavy took charge of the man, and Harris at once telegraphed for the commitment to be sent on. In explaining the matter he said that in changing his clothes before leaving he left the necessary papers in the clothes he had laid off. The question of pilotage, commerce and navigation will evidently be well threshed out during the present session of the Leg- islature. ~ President Colnon, Commis- sioner Chadbourne and Chief Engincer Holmes of the Harbor Commission have been summoned to Sacramento to give evidence in the above matters, in so far as they affect the port of San Francisco. Commissioner Cole would also have gone to Sacramento, but at the present time he is confined to his bed with a severe attack of stomach trouble. His friends, how- ever, expect 10 see him out and about again in a few da. The steam schooner Farallon sailed again on her regular run last Wednesday. The owners have twice attempted to cur- tail expenses by cutting down the number of the engineer’s staff, and on each occa- sion the Marine Engineers’ Association has protested. On the first occasion the vessel was delayed several days and then the owners gave in. On the second occa- sion the vessel was tied up and all hands discharged. Finaliy she was agaim put in commission and the engineers have won the day. Captain Ryder of the ship Elwell has won another suit of clothes. He made the round trip between San Francisco ana Naznaimo, B. C., in less than thirty days for the fourteenth time, and Captain W, Migheli is beginning to think it is time to call & halt or else raise the standard. The Elwell made the run from Nanaimo in thirteen days, which is very quick time considering the adverse winds encoun- tered. N A BHE OF SMIOKE First Concert Given by the San Francisco Symphony Society. Excitement Caus:d by the Accidental Burning of Some Paper at the Columbia Theater. Despite the weather the first concert of the San Francisco Symphony Society was well attended, and excitement was not wanting. During the first number, “Eine Faust Overture” by Wagner, the attention of the audience was suadenly distracted by the atmosphers becoming heavy with smoke, and the beauty of the music was for & moment forgotten. At the close of the number the smoke became almost un- bearable, and as the audience was getting restiess it was explained that some paper had been thrown on the farnace fire and the smoke came in through the fines. The musicians played in a decided haze the rest of the afternoon. Dvorak’s symphony in D major followed and was beautifully interpreted by Mr. Hin- richs’ musicians and_was enthusiastically applauded. Mrs. Katherine Fleming- Hinrichs made her initial bow to the San Francisco public and sang an air from Gounod’s “Queen of Sheba” in such a manner as to win for her an encore. Tschaikowsky’s “Marche Siave” finished the programme. ————— Resolutions of Regre At a meeting of the senior class of the Hast- ings College of the Law a committee consist- ing on R. B. Gaylord, E. F. Treadwell and George L. Jones was appointed by the presi- dent of the class to draw up resolutions ot re- gret ai_the resignation of Professor Charles W. 8iack. Upou the adoption of the resolutions by the cinss they wili be properiy engrossed and will be presented to the reliring proiessor.

He was taken to the Receiy. ing Hospital and in the afternoon was able to g0 home. ———————— Trunks Moyed 25 Cents. Commercial Transfer Company, 43 Sutter st.

F.Small, Mr. and Mrs. Witham under the roof where the shaft of counterbalance meets Lhe rafters. Tropp was tightening some bolts, and, knowing that he was working in the ele- vator shaft, the man in charge of the machine called to him toask if everything was clear. “Allright—go ahead!” shouted Tropp, and the cage was started. Tropp’s head was partially inside the runway of the counterbalance, and he must have miscalculated the time he had in which to withdraw it, for the huge weights caught him and almost tore his head from his body. C. M. Barrows, an employe of the firm, said that something was wrong, and yelled to the eleyator man to stop, but it was too late, and when the cage ceased to move Tropp’s lifeless body fell to the second story. Death must have been instantaneous, for the cage was moving rapidly and the counterbalance, ‘which weighs several hundred pounds, lsnded square on the back ot his head. Tropp's body was removed to the Morgue, where his employer Charles Kromburg, called later to make arrange- mente for the funeral. He stated that Tropp alone was to blame, as he had given the word to start the elevator and should have at once withdrawn his head from its dangerous position. He also stated that Tropp had no relatives in this City, his wife having died six or seven years ago. Deceased was 60 years of age and lived at 33 Twenty-fourth street. The elevator that caused the accide..t was the one used to carry the patrons of Smith's Cash Store to the upper floors of the establish- ment. The man in charge of the elevator was William Moore. He was 80 frightened that he could give no lucid account of the terrible affair except that the carpenter told him to eo ahead, and he had sup- poseé that the shait was clear, A Change of Attorneys.

DETERMINED TO DIE. Wing Hung Makes Three Attempts Before He Finally Succeeds in His Purpose, Wing Hung, & Chinese barber, who lived in one of the rookeries on Jackson street, attempted to commit suicide on Wednesday night by swallowing a dose of opium. He was taken 1o the Recelving Hospital, and Dr. O'Brien applied the usual remedies with satisfactory results. Wing Hung said he was sick and out of work and wanted to die. He was placed in one of the inebriate wards, and last evening he made an at- tempt to hang bimsell. He tore strips from his mattress, tied them together and then to the gaspive on the wall He wound the other end round his neck, stood on & chair and kicked it from under bis feet. Dr. Kinne and Deputy County Clerk Daly heard his groans and cut him down. His hands were strapped behind him and it was thought he was all right. He worked for some hours to get his hands released, but did not succeed. About 10 oclock he was noticed suspended from the gaspipe, and oo being cut down it was found that he had finally succeeded in ending his life. He had used bis teeth in tearing portion of the matt: and in nxing it round the gas pipe and his neck. chrig Jr., Miss | tform lecturer, was bidden | ANOTHER SALARY - IS NOWIN DOUT Superintendent and Archi- tect on the Same Footing. | | | { One More Tangle in the Mission [ High School Excess | Contracts | Auditor Broderick Thinks He Will Return the Warrants Without His Approvel. | Auditor Broderick said yesterday that | approval, the warrant for the payment of | Architect Havens of the Mission High | School. He also said that if the archi- to place the elevator mispi:u\mhus were seen those of Mr. and tect's warrant cannot be paid neither | can the recently elected superintendent of | construction draw salary, for they stand, | legally, on the same footing under the | existing conditions. That Mr. Broderick questioned the lezality of Mr. Havens’ claim as the archi- | tect of the Misston High School has been come as news to the board that the com- pensation of the newly elected superin- tendent of construction may also be dis- puted by tae Auditor. For the last few days the Auditor has busily engaged him- self in the consuitation of authorities and the decisiuns of courts, accumulating the law books in his private office until a small-sized law library was there. Yesterday he said that while his mind was about made up he still wanted to get another opinion. There is no dispute that the plans have been prepared by Mr. Havens. The trouble is that the con- tracts already awarded exceed the esti- mate made by Mr. Havens in an advisory capacity for the use of the board. Havens tigured the cost of the building at $137,000. The contracts already awarded amount to $140,138, or $3138 in excess. Mr. Havens has figured his commission on the basis of the cost of $140,000 instead of $137,000. Auditor Broderick thinks that the board, having accepted $137,000 as the architect’s statement of the cost, is bound by that. Moreover, he thinks ihat the architect is bound to see that the structure | is built for that amount of money. How the same general proposition has been re- cently viewed, in another case, is in- stanced by the Affiliated Colleges. The contracts for the construction of the Affiliated Colleges buildings having ex- ceeded the appropriation, the architect could not get his lees out of the appropria- tion. Whether he will get the fees by a special appropriation by the Legisiature or by what plan he will be paid the Audi- tor does not know, but the Auditor holds that under the general law, there is no way to pay the architect of tho Mission High School, and be thinks that the gen- eral law controls him. It there is no money to pay the architect, there is no money to pay the superintendent of con- struction. Mogan Wants His Salary. Joseph M. Mogan has asked for a writ of mandate to compel Auditor Broderick to sign a warrant for the payment of his salary as Fish and Game Warden, which office he formerly held. He says the Su- pervisors have no legal power to remove him from that position. A NEW TWO-STAR PLAY. Manager Kemper's Plan of Bringing Louls James and an Unknown to the Front. A rumor has been in circulation for the last day or two that Collin Kemper, man- ager of the Louis James company, had pur- chased the copyright of a new romantic play by a noted American author. The play, according to the story, requires 1wo stars, and Louis James is to be one of those. Mr. Kemyer, who was seen last night in reference to it, said he had a cew play in view, but was not yet ready to an- nounce the details of it, as his present contract with the company he is now managing would not end till May. ——————— A Well-Backed Mining Company.

The History of a Brave People Who Initiated Free In- stitutions. Declared to Have B:en at One Time Pre-eminent in A1 th: Wa ks of Human Life. Rev. Dr. C. W. Wendte of Oakland deliv- lecture at Golden Gate Hall last in a manner both historically instructive and entertaining. Dr. Wendte in his introductory remarks | related how when a happy boy in his na- | tive city of Boston the only grief he knew was occasioned by his playmates, who, on the strength of his foreign patronymic, ealled him a Dutchman, “‘They were unaware,” said Dr. Wendte, ‘“of any distinction bpetween the two branches of the great Teutonic family, but included them all under the peneric and mildly contemptuous term ‘Datch,’ whom our school geographies were want to describe as brutes wholly givea vver to gross and sensual pleasures.” Later in life, the lecturer said, when he had removed to San Francisco, and in the Mercantile Library of this City first pe- rused the glowing pages of John L. Mot- ley’s “Dutch Republic,” be felt pemitent that eyen as a boy he shoula have been ashamed to besr their name, With this preliminary Dr. Wendte pro- ceeded to condense into an address of something more than an hour the experi- ences and impressions derived in the course of a ten days’ tour in the Nether- lands. He described the characteristic physical aspect of the country, with its marvelous system of dikes, which has redeemed it from the inroads of the ocean and has involved an expenditure of some- thing like $1,500,000,000. He reviewed the history of its most notable cities and seats of learning and the associations which bave made them | famous, and described the habits of the people and the aspects of social life. In conclusion he told of the heroic struggle maintained for centuries against the hos- tile forces of nature and war with the Spaniards, a struggle which culminated during tbe supremacy of William of Orance and his equally illustrious son Maurice. From the Hollanders, the lecturer in- sisted, the Pilgrim Fathers first obtained their knowledge of free institutions, which they in turn conveyed to this continent, and thence it was that the English im- ported them into their own country. It was a strange circumstance that a people so essentially practical as the Dutch have always been should have pro- duced one of the most remarkable schools of painting the world has ever seen, and that music, the most ethereal of human studies, should at one time have in- cluded among its greatest exponents men of the same nationality. Two witty aud significant sayings hit off very happily the history of the Dutch people. The one is proverbial and runs: *God made the sea, but we made the The other emanated from the fer- tile brain of Butler, the author of *‘Hud:- bras,” and'is 10 the following effect: “A ——————————————————— Mr. | (D Skin Diseas and other internal organs. cases solicited, and perfect cures guaran- teed.

Ata meeting of public school teachers held on Wednesday it was decided to appoint & committee of teachers on legislation to go to Sacramento, especially in reference to the certificate bill. The rain kept many teachers away. The discussion was informal. In addi- tion 1o the certificate matter, the changes pro- posed in the pension law were also considered. The objection to:the certificate changes is based on the provision that teachers may hereafter, when applying for a renewal of certificates, be examined upon branches upon which they were not originally examined. “For instance,” sald one of the teachers sar- castically, *how wohld it do to examine s policeman for perpendicular penmanship, or 8 lawyer or physician on their qualifications sor playing the plano.” The discussion was earnest and energetic.
