Leon Faure Shoots a Man Attempting to Break Into the Hermitage. OAKLAND, CAL, May 31.—Two masked men attempted to break into the Her- mitage, at Upper Fruitvale, yesterday morning.. Leon Faure, who conducts the place, thinking that they wanted lodgings, threw up hLis window and shouted that he hud no rooms empty. An hour later they broke off a heavy gate in the rear of the house and set it up against the wall for a ladder. Faure had watched them when he found they did not leave, and when the first man steppe i up to reach the window he threw it open and fired three shots at him. With a groan the masked man fell to the ground exclaiming, “He hasshoi me.”’ Faure ran around the house as soon as he could, but the t¥o men had disappeared, leaving fresh buggy iracks near by. A pool of blood marked the spot where the man fell. Every effort is being made to success.

Elijah Hook, one of the loading mer- chants of this city, died somewhat sud- denly this morning while visiting in San Francisco. Hook has been in business in Oakland, and Le bas always shown a progressive spirit, and has done bis part toward bui d- ing up the community. Twenty-two years ago Mr. Hook opened afurniture estabiishment. | A movement was being agitated to induce Oaklanders to purchase at home instead of spending their money in San Francisco. Mr. Hook believed that the only way to induce people to stay at home was by giv- ing them the same opportunities on this | side of the bay as were offered on the other side, He decided to put this dea to the test and he was successful. He | bulit up a large business, and was one of the besi-known merchants in the county, About two yeurs ago he decided 1o re- business to his two sons. For several months he has been suffering from com- plicated diseases but his death was not | expected. Mr. Hook came to Oakland sabout thirty years ago from his homs in Contra | Costa County. Hismotrer, sister and two brothers still reside there. Mr. Hook on Guerréro street and last Thursday night ne was taken with a severe hem- orrhage, which resulted in hiz death this morning. The deceased had been for many years a member of University Ladge, No. 141, 1. 0. 0. F., and Pacific Lodge, A. O, U. W. his children, so there is nothing to be dis- tributed by & will.

OAKLAND, Can, May 3L—Mrs. Albert Deal startled the neighborhood of Third and Franklin streets at a late hour Inst night by ber screams of agony. When assistance reached the spot sne was found upon - the sidewalk prostrate, with An- arew Hecht, a teamster, standing over her, She ield a bottle of carboli¢ acid in | her hand. Mrs, Feeley, who saw the woman, ran to the receiving hospital and asked for an antidote for carbolic acid poison. Mrs, Deal ciaimed thial she was using the gcid for a sore on her hand. She had r.8ov- ered sufficientiy to-day to 1alk, and said: ““Whatif [ do bave my troubles and want to cemmit suicide? Whose business is it? Infact Idid not try to dieatatl, [ was only bluffing.

About 3 o'clock in the morning his oid trouble came back, |and caused him so much pain that ne | called his daughter, MissiJennie Blair, to | | give him some medicine to relieve the | pain.. The daughter thought the medi- ine had given relief, for the old man was very quiet during the remainder of the might. | _ When the family went to his bedside at ! | 7 o'cioek they found that the old man had | passed away. Dr. Luke Robinson is of the opinion | that the severe reiching had burst a blood -vessel in.the brain that resulied in death, The shock to the family was so great | that but little preparation was made for | the interment. This. much was decided, | that the funeral will take place to-mor- |row afternoon from Calvary Church, of | which Captain Blair was a member. The body will be interred in Cypress Lawn | Cemetery. 3 | Deceased leaves a widow and & son and daughter—William Biair and Miss Jennie Blair, who are well known in San Fran- | cisco ‘social circles. Captain Blalr is well known all along | this coast, naving been engaged in the | shipping, lumber and land business in | this City for fully forty years. In fact, he has grown up with the City. | | He wus of Scotch extraction. His an- | cestors settled in Ireland, and it was in | the Jittle 1siand thiat he first saw the light | of day, sixty-seven years ago. His birth | place was Lirae. | " Atan early age he came to this country. On November 14, 1849, the young Sco | man saleda for the Golden West in the [ ship Mary Waterman, arriving in San | Francisco on May 14, 1850. Captaln Blair, for even at that early age | he had justly acquired that title, went to e mines on the North Fork of the Amer= an River and labored with pick, shovel | ana rocker. This life did not suit his | tastes, for he loved the salt water, and he | returned to this City and became con- | nected with a shipping-house. Has fir<t work lere was to raise and float the sbip Utica, which was sank near Goat Islana. His next was to make a trip to| | Ausiralia in 1851 in the ship Indepenaent, | {and upon his retarn he engawed in ship- ping on his own account. For seve al years Captain Blair ran a number of smail vessels up and down the northern coast in the lumber trade, and he added a coaline fleet to his posse: after purchasing an interest in ths Cedar River coal mine in Washington. Later on he became the sole owner of the mine and efocted a large sawmili at Glen lair, more commonly called ** Pua- ding Creek,” in Mendccino County. For |'several years he has had & goodly fleet of | coasting vessels running for conl to Washe ington and to Furt Bragg for lumber, As stated, Captain Blair grew up with the City, but hie never 100k part in poli ical movements. However, in early duy when society in this City was decidedly | mixed and disturbances by the rough ele- meut were frequent, Captain Blair was a stanch supporter and at times a Jeader of ftne law and order ment. He was alwsys known asa home man, and teok | more pleasu e in bis lumily circle thau in social or club funciions. His friends, and they ary masy, speak of the captain as a man of a nobe and charitable nature, and his deceise as & greal lcs: to the com- munity ‘When a dog barks st night in Japsn tke owner is arresied and sentenced 10 work a year for the neighbors that were dis: | turbed.

C., asserts that he suffered for many years with dyspepsia, indigestion and biliousness. He tried every known remedy, consulted many physicians with the hope of geiting cured or even relief, but nothing seemed to relieve him. After meals he would feel as if a ball of lead was lodged in his stomach, tired and listless, as though life was scarcely worth living. Finally he was attracted to the ad of . RIPANS TABULES and concluded to try them. After taking the first.two or three he was surprised to find the relief they gave and soon he felt like a new man. He has never been without Ripans Tabules _ since, nor has he suffered since.
