THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, 'THURSDAY, MAY 13, 1897. A BABY BOY'S AWFUL PLUNGE August Bernard Falls Fifty Feet to a Concrete Floor. Thbe Youngster Struck a Clothes Line in His Descent Which Saved His Life. His Only Irjuries Were a Broken Leg and a Bruised Forehead—A Miraculous Escape. Little August Bernard, the three-year- old son of Joseph Bernard, who resides in & big family rooming-house at 6 Maiden ne, underwent a terrifying experience st Toesday aiternoon and it is littie short of miraculous that the babv boy escaped with his life. This plump-faced child with golden curls plunged from the top story of the tenement-house to the concrete floor below, a distance of almost fifty feet. Fortunately he struck a clothes WANTED TOVIEW b PALATIAL HOME | W. H. Van Pelt Surrepti- tious!y Eanters a Capi- talist’s Residence.

Van Pelt, who claims to be a tailor by occupation, was locked up in | the California-street police station last evening on a charge of burglary. It is | bardly probable, however, that he will be convicted on the charge, as the action on his part which caused his arrest seems to | bave been prompted by an overwhelming desire to view the interior of 2 million- aire’s residence rather than a lust to break | in and steal.

The barrel coliapsed under the force of the little falling body and the child fell, | his head striking the concrete floor. He lay quite still for a minute as though life was extinct, but finally slowly turned over | and cailed for his mother. Angelo Arata, a boy playing on the sec- ond floor of the building, heard the child’s cries and picked up the weeping baby and carried him A physician was hurriealy summoned, and it was found that the baby had sus- tained a fracture of his_left thigh bone, just below the hip. A big bruise over the forehead showed where the boy's head struck the concrete floor. These were the only injuries sustained by the child after a plunge through the air of haif a hundred feet. Little August was placed in his crib and after the limb had been set and bandaged an extension weight weizhing ds was attached to his ankles. For days that weight wili pull the limbs with cruel force keeping the bones end to | end that the child might escape the misery | of going through this life a cripple. The little boy does not cry or iret, but lies and looks with wondering eves on those around him, who staud ever ready to add 10 his comfort when possible. It was owing to the rotten railing around the court on the upper floor that the accident occurred. FOR ST. JAMES OHURCH. A Large Audience Pleased With an En- tertainment at Metropolitan Temple.

The stranger smiled, mumbled a few words and politely bidding the servant 2ood day walked siowiy from the house. Mr. Denicke, who is the president of the Mechanics' Institute, forgot the dig- nity of his position when informed of the occurrence in his parlor and quickly grasping his hat ran out of the house in zearch of the intruder.

THE CITY T0 OWN ITS WATER WORKS Progressive. Move Made by the Improvement Clubs. Will Force the Issue Before the Board of Super- visors. Competent Engineers to Make a Complete Inquiry Into the Subjec.-Matter. The San Francisco Association of Im- provement Clubs met last evening and determined that this City must in the near future own its own water, gas and electric-light plants. The association feels strong eno to accomplish this, ana it proposes to bring to bear ali the strength of the affiliated improvement clubs of the City, the labor unions and all of the strength of the local civic and commer- cial bodies that can be induced to take up the fight. The first move will be to secure munici- pal ownership of the City’s water supply. This was decided upon last evening at & special meeting of the represen:atives of the associated clubs. The matter was brought up by the report of the special committee, which reads as follows: To the San Francisco Association of Improve- ment_Clubs—GENTLEMEN: Your commitice on public utilities beg to submit for your consid- eration the following resoluiions with the recommendation that they be adopted: WHEREAS, The Board of Supervisors of the City aud County of San Francisco has for some time past been eugaged in tiie investigation of the subject of water rates, and particuiarly of the value of the Spring Valley Water Works, in order to establish a basis by which they should be guided in fixing reasonabie water Tates for the ensuing year; and whereas, the valuation put upon its property by the Spring Valley Water Works is grossly inflated and steadily increasing from year toyear, and that Dy reason thereof the waier rates based upon such valuation are unjust and exhorbitant not only to the mubieipality, but also to the individual rate payers; and whereas, various propositions bave been sub- mitted t0 {ormer Lioards of Supervisors of this City and County which sre now on fiie in the office of the clerk of said Board of Supervisors, offering 1o furnish this City with a good and sufficient supply of pure water for a reason- abie sum of money, whereby the rates for waler in this City would be reduced at least one-half and thée municipality saved at least $213,000 per annum; therefore be it Resolved, iy this nssociation, that the Board of Supervisors be requested to appoint without delsy & corps Of engineers to examine into and report to the Board of Supervisors as to the cost, quantity and quality of. water and practicabiiity of the various propositions now pending before the Board of Supervisors for the City and County of San Francisco; and be 1t further Resolved, That if said corps of engineers re- port favorably upon any of seid propositions City and County of San Fraucisco immediately proceed toarquire such property and take such steps as wiil lead to municipa’ ownersnip of water coordance with the provisions of d 8 of an act of the Legisiature of ¥ cities, towns and municipal cor- incorporated under the laws o this State for the construction of water works, sewers and a1l necessary public improvements or for any purpose whaiever,” as said sections are amended by the act of March 1, 1893 and be 1t further Eesolved, That the secretary of thie associa- tion be instructed to transmit & copy of these also to all civic organizations, requesting their esriy consideration and joint co-operation; and be it further Resolved, That we commend the efforts of the Mayor aud Board of Supervisors and the of water rates and properties now available Nearly every one present had a word to say favorable to the foregoing resolutions and its purpose, and many statistical facts were dwelt upon showing the advan- tage of municipal ownership of the City’s source of water supply. The resolutions passed without « dissenting voice. It was decided that the co-operation of | the entire public be asked in this move. | President Fletcher, by direction of the association, appointed a committee of five, who will present this matter to the Super- visors at once, and before the meeting draw into this movement as many other organizations as possible. The committee consists of ex-Judge A. W. Thompson, L. Samueis, Major D. McKinne, C. A. Alpers and Joseph Sheerer. President Fletcher and Vice-Presidents William Metzner and Joseph Grady will also be on this com- mittee. GIBSON UNDER A STRAIN This Is the Reason He Publicly Assigns for His Resig- nation. Emmanuel Church Has Offered to Increase His Salary to Induce Him to Remain. There was an unusually large atten- dance at the quarterly business mesting of Emmanuel Baptist Church last night as the matter of the resignation of Rev. Geaorge J. Gibson was on the tapis for con- sideration. There were about 125 members present and there was a unanimoussentiment made manifest in favor of the retention of the pastor. It was finally decided to tender him an increase of salary n inducement to re- main, and a committee of five was ap- pointed to confer with him in reference to the matter. His salary 1s now $100, and the proposition is to advance it to $125. The conference will take place at the resi- denceof C. W. Taber, one of the trustees of the church, on Saturday evening. Mr. Gibson was present during the dis- cussion, ana in explaining his reasons for being so persistent in his efforts to have his resignation accepted stated he was de- sirous of changing his field of labors, be- cause of the peculiar associations that at- tended the double tragedy enacted within the walls of the church. Hedeclared that for the past two years he has been undera constant strain, owing to these matte and hoped that a change of scene woul restore to him his peace of mind. Incidentally the financial affairs of the church were discussed, and it was an- nounced that it was in better condition to- day than it hud ever been before in its his- tory. ——— Alumni Banquets.

Two Hermann-Street Boys, Each of Whom Held a Grudge for the Other. “Ei” Dennelly and “Billy” McDonald Were the Principsls, and “Bil.y” McKnight the Referee. A desperate prizefight, in which two young men well known 1n Hayes Valley were the principals and & newspaper man of that vicinity the referee, took place on Sunday morning last at the stone quarry on Kifteenth and Tilden streets, and all concerned have been making strenuous efforts to keep the matiter quiet for fear of complications with the police. The battle laated through fourteen bloody rounds and only terminated when both men were too exbausted to continue and the referee decided the contest a draw. Ever since J. J. Corbett, erstwhile cham- pion of the world, who was a Hayes Val- ley boy, made his debut in that role boxing has been a favorite pastime with the vouth of the section and many promising “scrap- pers” have been aeveloped. Among them are “Ed” Donnelly and “Billy”” McDonald of Hermann street, and between them a rivalry has long existed that recently at- tamed tue dignity of a grudge. From bard feelings to fight was but a short distance for the embryo pugilists and a couple of weeks ago a contest toa finish was arranged and both men went into training. The affair became public talk in the valley and when the men went into the ring that had been pitched, on Sunday last, a big crowd of onlookers, who had quietly sneaked in from all directions, was present to see the battle. Each man was seconded by two friends and “Billy” Me- Knight of the Hayes Valley Advertiser was chosen referee in the absence of a well-known young man who was com- | pelled to go on a trip the day previous. The men were equally matched in size and weight and lost no time in getting to- | gether when Reierce McKnight called | *'time.” Old ringsters would have traveled miles | to see that mill, for both men were glut- | tons for punishment and were so nearly | equal as to cleverness that the tide of bal- tle did not turn perceptibly to either. Hard gloves—practically skin tight, be- | cause thev only weighed Lwo ounces each— were used and the blows that landed told, the faces of both being covered with blood | before many rounds had been fought. For ten rounds the fight was fast and | furious, but the tremendous exertion told on both, and toward the close the young were so exhausted that they were scarcely able to stand. Knockdowns were | frequent, but neither was able to land & decisive blow. At the end of the fourteenth round, when the seconds had to lift their men out of their corners in order to get them on their legs, Keferee McKnight decided that honor had been satisfied, and that both of the fighters might be called game, They were carefully escorted home and are still nursing tbeir hurts, while the | valley discusses the mill with admiration | and bated breath. i 1t is rumored that the prize for which Donnelly and McDonald fought was the good will of a certain fair one who is| nameless, but this is a matter of conjec- ture except to a favored few. | L T T e T T T T T e PURE FOOD OONGRESS. The Promoters Will Soon Make This a | Permanent Organization. The regular meeting of the directors ot the Manufacturers’ and Producers’ Asso- | ciation was held yesterday, and considera- | ble attention was given to the sub- | jectof permanent organizatien of the Pure | Food Congress which was recently heid under the auspices of the association. The desire is to spread the movement all over the State and have all of the local | county bodies members of the Congress, | The directors yesterday did not decide | upon a plan, su the matter was left in the bands of A. Sbarboro, L Jacobs and Sam | McKee, who will suggest the lines upon | which the congress will permanently or- ganize. This committee will also look after cases of violation of the pure food | laws now before the Police courts. It was siated that Judge Campbell will dismiss 2ll of these cases unless the prosecutors take hold of these matters in earnest. President Kerr was instructed to ap- point ten delegates to the Trans-Missis- sippi Congress, ‘which will meet in Salt Lake on Juiy 14. These delegates will be instructed to make a fight against the shipping into California of convict-made goods. Secretary Mead was directed to send a telegram to W. R. Hearst of New York, requesting, in the name of the association, that he uee only California materials in the construction of the new Examiner building on Market ana Third streets. FOUND HANGING TO A TREE Max Von Schassen, a Browery-Wagon Driver, Commits Sulcide. The body of Max von Schassen, a driver for the Pniladelphia Brewery, who re- sided at 554 Folsom street, was found banging from a tree near the life-saving station, on the ocean beach, last evening. It is presumed he committed suicide several days ago. The cause which prompted Von Schas- sen to take his life is unknown. He left no message and never intimated to his friends that he intended committing sui- cide. He was last seen alive Friday even- ing by P. Schmidt and to him be dic not { complain of ill health or financial embar- rassment. His friends are at a loss to understand his rash act. The body was removed to the Morgue. Deceased had no relatives in this country 80 far as known. It is believed his parents reside in Germany, Taylor Was Acquitted.
