THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 14, 1897. VETEREN KARNS' BAD NICKELS Two Years’ Imprisonment Given to an Old Soldier. | | desired to read to the court was a state- | men: addressed to him and written by the prisoner in the Alameda County Jeil. The statement gives a sketch of the life of Karns s a Union soldier, He enlisted in July, 1861, in Company A, Thirty-eighth Obio Volunteer Infantry, for the term of three years, or during the war. In the Iatter part of 1861 his compzny was with the command of neral George H. Thomas at Lebanon, Ky., where he acted as Provost Marshal, Ou that occasion he was ordered to repurt 1o General Thomas, | who instructed him to_deliver a dispatch to Brigadier-General Seff, then at Sum- merat, eigiity miles away. He succeeded in delivering the dispatch, although fired upon several times by the enemy. At the battle of Mills Springs ke had the honor of receiving and transmitting the first order oi General Thomas on the battle-field. He was not more than thirty feet from the Confederate general Zolli- coffer when the latter fell from his horse iatally wounded. Karns was afterward selected as one of the scouts for General Rosecrans. He remained with his regiment until after the fall of Corinth. He ntelped 1o storm Missionary Ridge. He was in seventy- 1wo engagements during the war and was wounded in the leg with a bullet at the battle of Chickamauga. It would not have been proper to have allowed the siatement to be read in court after the prisoner had been convicted, and it bad no bearing on his case. This was probably why Judge Morrow would not allow it to be read. Karns will be taken to San Quentin on Saturday. His attorney wiil appeal the case.

VARI-CO-CELE Wasting Weakness, Failing Man-| hood and Nervous Debility Are Easily Cured by While you sleep at night this belt soaks your weakened nerves full of electricity and restores your health. It is surer and cheaper than medi- cine. Sanden’s Belt has a newly pate makes the current mild is on the body. No other belt made can be regu- lated. The digease known as varicocele has baffled the medical profession at every turn, | T'he various attempts to remove it have all proven ineffective, and some of them even more injurious than te disease itself. The knife, vacuum, com bave all been tried and all failed, and yet Varicocele and its large follow: weaknesses can be cured. Varicocele is a cdngestion of the stagnant blood in the veins, with considerable distention of the glands. Electricity will decompose this congested state and drive the stagnant blood into the circulation, relieving the veina | college of this des of the weakening strain, at the same time contractfig the glands which have zrown | been affiliated with weak from the disease, thus curing the whole trouble, DR. SANDEN’S ELECTRIC BELT, Recognized by the medical profession as the most scientific method for the gpplication of the electric current to the body, and backed by many thousanis of cures of various mervous and chronic cases, is now acknowledged the best means of reaching the dread Wasting disesse VARICOCELE. Its power over this disease is remarkable. Cures have been completed in one ‘month, 2nd the worst cases can be reached in three months by this belt. As an evi- dence of recent results the following will be interesting: “Iwould like to add my testimony to mumerous others in possession of Dr. SBanden’s Electric Belt Co. I purchased a belt from Dr. Sanden about tHe first of Avpril, which I used according to directions, and after three months’ trial T am happy #o state that my varicocele, which was of twelve years’ standing, is almost entirely disappeared, my testicles being almost normal. T take great pleasure in recommend- ing this Belt to any one suffering from like trouble. Respectfully yours, “W. E. JOENS, 1139 Market street, San Francisco, Cal. “On receipt of your Belt I was requested to report in thirty days and T therefore Tet you know how I am getting along. I must say that the results are away beyond my expectations, and I now. believe in the'wonderful power of the Beit. I notice an improyement all over my body and especially the varicocele, which before I wore the Belt were large swollen veins, have almost entirely and completely disappeared, and the seminal weakness which I have suffered from for a long time has entirely disap- peared. Iam now as strong in this particular as I wish to be. I wish you to publish #$his letter that other sufferers my profit by my experience.”” DAMATO, Penryn, Cal. “ The losses are nearly all stopped and the varicocels almost entirely zone. Your Belt is a good one.” J.N. ESTHER, Emigrant Gap, Cal. v varicocele, which was very bad and painful, so that I had to wear a support, was heiped right away and in one month had disappeared aitogether.’” A.

Think of the happiness, the deep, heart-whole con- tent that settles upon your mind when you say to your- self, ‘I am strong and manly ; I have preserved the gift of manhood that nature gave me.” Yes, you who can say that, and say’it honestly, think of how much you owe | to nature, the giver of manhood. Yet not many can say it. There are too many pitfalls, too many temptations in the path of young men, and too many of them fall. It is to correct the error of youthful folly, and to point out the happy recovery of manly vigor by his won- derful Electric Belt, that Dr. Sanden has given to the | oy ofatsehce to pursue s course at Cui- world his famous book, ‘‘Three Classes of Men.” He | will send a pocket edition, free, sealed, to any sufferer, or |} Get it.

University Regents Post- pone the Affiliation Question. The Wilmerding School Site Also Elicits Much Dis- cussion. Cooper Medical Colleg: Makes a Petition—No Secretary Has Yat Been S:lected The regents of the State University met | yesterday at the Hopkins Institute of Art. | Governor Budd occupied the chair. Previous to the call to order a commit- tee from the Merchants’ Association, con- isting of Irving M. Scott, A. 8. Baldwin, 7. W. Dohrmann, E. B. Pond and Secre- | tary Freud, met in conference with a com- | mitiee from the regents and discussed the proposition of a site for the Wilmerding School. Information was given the board that a site would be presented free of charge, though iis precise location was not designated. In the judgment of the Morchants' As- sociation any of these sites mentioned as | available wouid answer every require- | ment. Mr. Scott presented Mrs. Stan- | ford’s recent communication to the trus- | tees of Stanford University, in which she | spoke in favor of locating the school in this City, and himself voiced the opin- ion that San Francisco is the place for the school. No action in the matter was taken at the time, but later on it was brought up | again by Regent Phelps, and after some discussion, in which Regent John E. Budd evidenced antipathy 10 its being taken es a ioregone coaclusion that the plum will fall into the local basket, the matter was referred to a committee, com- yosed of Regenis Arthur Rodgers, C. A. Siack and F. G. Phelps, to meet with a committee irom the Merchants’ Associa- tion and look over the -rounds that body bad in view. Before this committee can take any action it must report back to the board. The resiznation of Professor Neif of the veterinary department was received and acoeepted. A letter from Professor Hilgard was read, in which he cailed attention to the pressing necessity of taking some action | in the matier of university printing. The institntion 1: greatly perturbed over the the State printing appropriation. Regent Rodgers thought the matter shou.d be referr d to a special committee with instructions to make a thorough ex- amination and report thereon. Governor Budd here embrac-d the chance to give the board a verbal castigation. He said ihat the printinc investigation showed beyond all doubt that the university printing in _the past has been marked by unexampled extravagance. Governor Budd himself and Regents Grocker and Rodgers were appointed committee to inquire into the matter, but it was decided, nevertheless, to have 6000 | conies of the university register printed at Sacramento. Professor Langley sent in his applica- tion for a four days’ leave of absence with- sut loss of pay, and the same drew down the vigorous censure of Regent Foote. In fact, befcre he finished the gentleman grew almost belligerent. This board has absolutely no right r ibe rules to grant such a request. am opposed to it first, last and all the tme. It is contrary to the law on the subject.”” The maliter was referred to the law com- mittee without further discussion, but was important on account of tie fact that a similar instance rose later on, in which Regent Foote was antagonized to the ex- tentof a triumph on the part of his op- panents. The propos g | ition to afliliste the Hahne- mann College with the university vrought forth another strong protest from Regent Waliace. Leading medical men, he be- | sieved, were opposed to theidea. Any- wuy, they had asserted, so he said, that & iption had never yet s leading university, | except at AnneArbor, Mich., and that was ¢one by tricker Regent C pathic physic er Rowell, who is an allo- spoke against the pro- posed affiliation as being unwise and not | politic. He contended that homeopaths bad nothing new 10 offer in the way of af- filiation, and that the fairest thing was to grant them & chair of theory and practice in the medicai department of the uni- versity. Regent C. F. Crocker, who with Regents A. S. Hallidie and William T. Watts, brought in tie report, rose in its aefense. Mr. Wetts, he stated had voted adversely, but Mr. Hallidie himself had voted in favor of it because no one had appeared be.ore them and presented any reason why they shouid notafliiate. T..e matter was compromised by maxing it a subject for espeeial consideration ~at the August meeting. Then the proponents and opponents of the question could appear and settle the thing. Regent John E. Budd naively inquired whether the August meeting shoula be heid here or in Carson City, | tbereby serioasly interfering with the soiemn conclave of the board for some time. It was decided that in future the deposit of $10 required of students to psy the expenses of their diplomas should be reduced to $5. Regent J. B. Reinstein stated that only about $250 was required for that purpose, wherenpon Regent Foote wanted the balance refunded to the students. His desire failed to prevail, but an appropriation of $250 was made to relieve the expenses of the graduating class, insiead. The committee on the estate of Harold Whiting, in Massachusetts, which was leit as a legacy 1o tue university, reported that it could be secured by the payment of & collateral inneritance tax of $1000. The estate amounts to $20,000, The regents further signified their de- sire to have a chair of the Scandinavian ianguages endowed at (he earliest possible moment. By avote o/ 16 to 3 it was decided to sen’i Professor Law:on ns a representutive of the university to the International Geo- logical Convention to be held at St. Pe- tersburg. The technicality of allowing Lim no salary but expenses amounting to his salary in his absence was resorted 1o in order 10 avoid the legal provision on the subject. Regent Foote again ‘made vigorous ob- jections 1o such a proceeding, but to his evident chagrin was overruied. Professor True of the department of phy-ics endeavored to obtan a year's 0, but it was deemed inadvisable to #Tant him leave of absence at this time. Alier earnest discussion it was voted hat an appropriation not 1o exceed ,000 be made to cover the éxpense of consiructing a two-story frume building between the library and” chemistry build- ing at the university. This building has become an absolute neccessity as a tem- porary expedient to reiieve the over- crowded condition now prevailing. Regent Denickeaiso spoke heartity in favor of an improvement to the gymnasium huilding. ~ Professor Soule was appointed to make lege buildings. Regent Denicke had brought specimens for examination by the board, and it was claimed that the cement used is of a very inferior quality. When the question of tne selection of 4 successor to Mr. Bonte in the office of genersl secretary of the universily was broueht forward the board weat into ex- ecutive session, It was stated by one of the regents alterward that there are no less than forty-eight applicants for the position. [t was found impossible to agreé on any one man, and the selection of a secretary was postponed for a month. It was decided to send a recommeuada- tion to the Secretary of War to appoint as instructor in military science at the uni- versity either Lieutenant Sidney A. Clo- man or Lieutenant W, H. Bertsch, With the former as first choice. An adjournment was finally taken till a week from next Tuesday, at which time all unfinished business will be settled. The following petition has been sent to the Board of Regents by the president of Cooper Medical College: To the Honorcble Roard of Regents of the Uni- versity of California—GENTLEMEN: The under- signed haviug learned that it has been decided 10 grant the degree of bachelor of science o students who aiter three years' study in the university then pursue the study of medicine in the medical department of that institution respectfully requesis thag tne same degree be granted 1o students of the universiiy who may fuilsue the study of medicine in the Cooper edical Colley This is asked for on the followlng grounds: Cooper Meaical College, as the succsssor ot the medical department of the University of the Pacific, founded in 1858, is the pioncer medi- caliusiitution of the Pacific Coast; it hns a class of students, averaging annually v_200. These students, through their parents and friends, represent’ a large numver of the taxpayers of the State of Califoruia, aud thus, they béing contributors to the mainien- ance of ‘the university, vour petitioner re- quests that they be conceded a iair share in its honors and privileges. Cooper Medical Coilege has risen to its present prosperity wholly through individual enterprize; its faculty works without salary. It has never appesled to the Legislature for aid, but on the contrary it pays heavy taxes. Evidence that Coopar Medical College is maintaint: igh standard o medical edu- cation is the fact that the institution i8 recog- nized by the leadiag medical sutborities of rope. In eddition to its course of four years’ study, the president of the school has recently founded a course of lectures 1o be given annuaily by some one who has attained & world-wide eminence in medicine. This course, ia 1896, was delivered by Professor William Macewen; and this year the lectures Christopner Heath, iate resident of the Rova! College of Surgeons, ngland. These lectures give the students of Cooper Medical Collcge an iestruction which otherwise tuey could only obtain abroad. Basing his request on the above grounds, the undersigned respectfully solicits your favor- abie action. L. < E, President of Cooper Mcdical Co:lege. San Francisco, April 10, 1397. PROMINENT JAPANESE.

Sl{e Arrived Frcm Sydney Last Octo- ber With an Infant Chid, Who Survives H-r. Dr. Gallagher held an autopsy yester- day on the bodv of the young English woman who died at 1914 Lyon street on the night before and whose case was re- ported 1o the Coroner by Dr. Shumate as suspicious. The autopsy developed the fact that death had been caused by blood poisoning brought about by the act of the young woman herself or of some person unknown. The deceased was known James Walker,” and had visiting cards with that name. She was also known as Mrs. Yvonne Walker, but frona letters in her possession there is no doubt that her real name was Miss Lulu Jobberus. One of the cards found among the effects of the deceased read: “Mrs. R. Walker, The Glen, Willis street, Wellington."” A memorandum-book in her handwrit- g contains the foll.wing: “Left Flood street end in April for Ridee street. Loris born 231 August, 18%. Left Sydney 28th September. Arrived in Frisco 22d Octo- ber, 1896.” The woman arrived here on the steamer Monowai with the child Loris, who is now being cared for by Mrs. Mornson, at whose house the mother died. Under date of Sydney, March 14, 1897, and on the leiter-nead of Stacker & Fischer, importers and warehousemen, ber father wrote io ner very kinaly and affectionately. He asks for the name of the person who gave her the money for her passage on the Monowai, and for the name of the father of Loris, with the inti- mation that it was tue duty of the child’s father to provide for it. There are also lotters from her mother and her sister Lily. The mother ex- presses the hope that the deceased might ot married here 1o some well-to-do man. The sister, Lily, i1s evidentlv a nurse in some medical institution at Ry :almere. A letter from the address, ‘300 Dariing street, Baimain, March 4, 1897, signed *Robo,” iy from some man connected With the Municipal Hospital of that place. The writer seems to Liave been on terms of undue intimucy with the deceased, and portions of his letter are unprintable be- cause of their obscenity. He may be the “R, James Walker” "whose name was taken by the deceased. The matier has been placed in the hands of Chief of Police Lees, and the in- quest will be deferred until the detectives shall have had an opportunity of further inquiring into the circumstances sur- rounding the deata of the girl.

MEZZARA'S WIDOW AT DEATH'S DOOR Was Suddenly Afflicted With Paralysis of the Brain. The Oid Lady Is Now Uncon- scious and Has But to Await the End. Ever Since Her Husband’s Death She Hs T:ught French for a Livaiihool. Mme. Amelia Mezzara, the widow of the artist and sculptor, Pietro Mezzara, one of the founders of the Art Association of | the Schuol Jf Design of this City, is now | Iying at the point of death in her home at 1404 California street. About two weeks ago she was afflicted with pa- ralysis of the brain, and, unconscious of her condition or surroundings, she is ex- pected to die any hour. Mme. Mezzara bas for many years been | a resident of this City, and -ince the death of her husband has taught French fora livelthood. She was born in France in 1831, and was there thoroughly educated | in music and languages. She was mar- ter from W.T. Sherman to the United States Minister at Paris. At tbe ciose of her work in France she was presented with a superb gold medal by the French republic in recognition of ber noble work in the fieid. On her return to California sbe was presented with an- other gold medal by the Frencn ladies of this City. On August 1, 1896, a pension of $12 was allowed ber for her acts of bravery and devotion during the Civil War. She was a member of the Fiorence Nightingale Amuiiance and Hospital So- ciety of Scutari and was also at Sebastopol during the war of 1855, and was subse- quently decorated with the Geneva cros Pietro Mezzara died in Paris on the 5th of September,. 1895. For many years he bad a swudio in Pioneer Hall on Mont- gomery street. He was recognized as an artist of more than average merit. Althouy did not receive material encouragement enough to make him wish to end his days here. He was an intimate friend of F. L. A. Pioche, the banker, and when the lat- ter committed suicide Mezzara's desire to return to Europe became tvo strong to be resisted. X Pioche had not forgotten him in his will, but without awaiting the results of the litigation over the estate he sold his claim and went to France. Among the works which he left behind may be mentioned the statue of Charity on the Masonic building; the groups of Romulus and Remus, which ornament the facade of the Mechanics’ Pavilion; the statue of Lincoln at the Lincoin Grammar School and the statuary at the State Capitol at Sacramento. Mezzara 1s supposed to have been about 60 years of age at the tima of his death. Mezzara's death caused much regret among bis friends in this City, as will the death of his wife, which the physicians say is inevizable. THE EINTRACHT TURNERS. Preparing for a Grand Beneficiary En- tertainment for Next Sunday Night. The Turn Section of the Verein Ein- | tracnt is preparing for a large benefit en- tertainment to be held next Sunday ever- ing in Eintracut Hall at 237 Twelfth MME. AMELIA MEZZARA, Who Was Stricken With Paralysi of the Brain Two Weeks Ago. ried to Pieiro Mezzara when but 16 vears of age. A few years later her husband came to Califernia in search of wealth and fame. Mme. Mezzara was about to leave New York for Cahfornia to join her husband when the Civil War broke out. Tuere w a call for three months’ troops to pu down the rebellion, and knowing that she would be detained that length of time be- fore she could leave for the Pacific Coast, she enlisted after a short training in a sciool for hospital nurses. - She was de- tailed for duty in Miss Dix’s corps of nurses. Soon after, at her own request, she was sent to the front, and was with the field hospitals in “Fighting Joe'’ Hoo! er's division. The weary years of conflict went on, and still Mme. Mezzara re- mained at her post until Richmond came down. Her next experience was during <be Franco-Prussian war. She left New York carrying with her an autographic letter and order from Generul Hooker received irom him during the Civil War. This letter testified to her de- votion to the wounded as well as recom- mending ber ability as a nurse to Count de Flariguy, president of the Geneva Red Cross Society. She also carried a let- street. It will be the largest ever given by these turners. The object is turee:fold. The turners want to raise money to renovate the zym- nasium, send a team to the prize turning at San Jose next year,and last to properly receive the delegates to the Bundestag- itzung who will visit this City in May, 1898, hese delegates are really the head of the turners of the United States.
