THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, JULY 18, 1897 THE PLANS FUR THE VERSITY Europe and the Fast En- thusiastic About Them. | | WARMLY DELEGATES RECEIVED. | At Least Twenty-Eight Build- ings Will Be Required i for the Ideal. | 10ESS OY THE MODE OF COMPETING. Regent Reinstein Returns From Europe and the East—Will £oon Make a Report. At last something has been determined | s; in the way of form the magnificent b ating the plans for ldings which will at | some day re grace the Univer- | ty o yrnia grounds and be an ever- | lasting ornament and pride to the Gelden | State. Nothing definite Las been deter- mined on, however, for the time was too short to do that when such a stupendous | wder 1z was the theme, but the very | methods gone about to secure the plans for the buildings must prove of great in- terest t Attorney | firm of Reinstein & Ei the Board o! Regents of the unive has just returned from a t of two d a balf to the Eas'ern States | | which is B ein of the legal sner and one o months nd to the principal cities of Europe, the | being partly professional and partly haview to further the obtaining of the permanen*® architectural plan of the grounds and buildings of the university, for which Mrs. Plcebe Hearst bas uppoint- ed three trustees—Governor Budd, repre- senting the State; Professor William Carey Jones, representing the university; and Mr. Reinstein, representing the Board of Regents. She hasalso turnished the necessary moneys for getting such a plan. The leading authorities of Europe and the East think that at lcast twenty-eight | buildings wiil be required for an ideal | university. Marble and stone are the fa- | vored materials. 1 Last winter Mr. Maybeck, teacher of | architectural drawing in the university, | and Attorney Reinstein visited the iead-| ing architects in the principal cit stern States, and Mr. May been for about seven months in seeing the great architects, artisis and landscape-gardeners of Europe, with a| view of obtaining their ideas in reference | to Mrs. Hearst's scheme, and with a view | of enlisting their aid and symparhy for ir. From ahout the middie of Mav to the end of June Attorney Reinstein has bren with Mr. Maybeck, partly on the same errand. They took with them a topo- | grapnical map «f the grounds and buiid- ings of the university and photographs taken with an idea of uiustrating every | portion of the groundsand the situation | of tle university with reference to the | surrounding count | had lantern slides of the situation, | 1 were exposed in the different citie of Europe as well as in tLe principal citics | of the Eastern States last winter. i The two have been to London, Edin- | burgh, Manchester and to the towns and | cities of Great Britain containing the prin- | cipal monuments of architecture, and | have interviewed the leading architects, | artists and landscape gardeners of knge land. They have been in Paris, Brussels, Hamburg, Denmark, Berlin, Dresden, i e, Prugue, Frankfort, Strasburg, | org, Munichi, Vienna, Buda-Pesth, Verona, Venice, Rome, Florence, cities, interviewing ariists and land-cape | ing architects, gardeners of those cities, and enli-ting | their interest and aid in the scheme | of obtaining this architectural plan, | and are more than gratified with| the result; for the greatest and most | renowned ‘architects, artists and land- | | scape gardeners and those most promi- nent all over the world matters have not o given most cheer- | fully and m freely tueir time end at- tention, suggestion and counsel, but have received the proposition with unbounded enthusiasm, and hs entered ingo its ac- comp.ishment as zealously as though it | were a matter in which they were person- ally emp:oyed. in c.iuc:n:nn:nli And all this bas been | done hout any hint or thought of pe- cuniary recompense, and everywhere | Maybeck and Reinstein have been told | that the obtainment of thia plan affords | the greatest opportunity that vas ever | been offered in the bistory of architecture. | The beauty of the site of the university., | the large area of its grounds and their | situation on a gen:ly rising hill over- looking the Goiden Gate, and a glorious panorama of the bay of San Francisco, and the surrounding bills, and the 1ace that Mrs, Hearst has not restricted the amount of money necessary to obtain this plan, all tend to make a great opportunity, which the architects, artists and land- scape gardeners of ths worid have appre- ciated thoroughly and quickly. The metbod of obtaining the plan will | be determined by the three trustees, but | the general impression of those constlted | seems 10 Le, though nothing has becn de- | cided as yet, that there wiii be an inter- national concurrence of architects, with the aid of artists, sculptors and landscape | gardeners, to bring about the best resuits, | There will be a programme, as iz is tech- nically called, of the requirements of the | university, and this, tugether with the necessarv dala—such as a topographical map of the grounds, puotographs, eic.— | would be sent to the various architects of | the world, who would send in, by a given | date, preliminary drawings, not in great | detail, but something in the nature of a | rkeich, from which a certzin number of the best would be selected, ard their au- thors requested to enter into a second compeliiion, with more definite and de- toiled and comprehensive drawings, the best one of which will be selected as the permunent plan for the grounds and buildings. The idea for the first competi- tion is to have a German, an Englishman, 2 Frenckman and an American, together with a university regent, act as the judges. 1n the record competition they could have the power to name four more. This programme has been in cours of | preparation in Paris now for some time, by Prolessor Guadet, who has had, per- haps, the largest experience on such sub- jects of any verson living, and Messrs. Maybeck and Reinstein have bad frequent consultations with him in this regard. The programme <honld be finished within a month. It will then be submitted to the leading authorities of the world for suggestions and criticisms, and will then, together with the-e suggestions and eriti- cisms, be finally passed upon by tte trus- tees, provided the trustees adopt the method of com petition to obtain this plan. Attorney Reinstein will hand in his re- port of what the leading authorities of the world think of the project in a few days. He iscareful to impress the fact upon the mind, Lowever, that everyihing is subject to the regents’ideas, aud that nothing can yet be regarded as definite. He said; I nave not mentioned the names of the va- rious persons wnom we have seen in this con- nection, but I think it may be truly said that almost every architect or landscape gardener of world resiowa has been seen snd consulted, and has given us the benefitof his suggestions and advice in this matter. We have had some most interesting expe- riences and interviews in this connection. On the trip from New_York to Queenstowr, Mr. Potter, Bishop of New York, who is an enthu- siastic sdmirer of California, and who knows this State very thoroughly, expressed his be- 1 hat tnere was 1o site for a university on | this earth so beautiful as that of Berkeley. He was botn interested and delighted at the ddea of such bui'aings as are contemplated for University of California and the prepara- iion of the geueral pian of the entire group of buildings tefore any of them were erected. ‘Ihe presidents of the leading universities of this country expressed their opinion last win- ter that the harmon ous grouping of beautiful buildings for a upiversity wouid have an im- portant effect on the education and character of the students, who would be necessarily io- fluenced greatly thereby. We had several amusing incidents also in Psr:s which iilustrated the fee ing among the | architects of that city toward each other and | 1oward any great enterprise such as they con- | sidered this. For exampie: We had intrusted | the preparation of one part of the programime | 10 an architect of world-wide fame, and there- afier, in un interview with a somewhat older architect of even greater fame for aavice and consuitation, | e very promptly stated, not at our request,’ that lie would be glad to call | uron the architect who was preparing the partof tnis programme. We cxpressed sowe little fear that thi might be resented, perhaps, »s a&n interfe ence, whereupon pe said: “Oh, 1 don’t thin so, for this is an enterprise to which all archi- | vand art s's shou d be giad both 10 give and to receive counsel and suggestion; be- sides, of course yor know, he 1+ my pupil, and | Iam sure will not res>nt my advice.” \ hanked him grea aud on the next o.der architect—practically the cture in the | roiession of archit d he sa.d, without our request, that | be glad 10 aid_the two former archi- | “o! he would | teets with nis eounsel, and stated that he | e them both on the following Wednes- smuch ac they both came to him as great cities of Eurepe wad both a striking and a1 defi ite and controliing standards in and in obtaining fine artistic re- suits; resuits which are the more important 1 desirable because, as a rule, they are of & tcharacter and produce their effect who regard them for many veers. vliere we went, In_Europe. we bitants of zreat cities mani- f:sting a pride in the beautifying of their ciiy, productive of both esthetic and ary benef of this C ve believe wili in no make this City, sO superb y situ- main resort of the peopleof the BABY SHARK CAPTURED The Youngster Netted by Fish- ermen Off Angel Island.

Minear, the Man in the Case, Has Not Yet Gone Home to His Wife, 8he Went to San Jose Yesterday and | a Divorce Suit for Cause May Follow. Petite Violet Foster Clowes, the brief “‘Dot Foster” of the stage, lay in her black casket yesterday morning, in the cozy parior of her frieud Julia Vollertsen, at extreme point of the tail and weiehs fifty | pounds. The tail is about three and a half feet long. Sharks of this speciss grow to immense size, weighing from 600 to 1000 pounds each. The baby shark from which the accom- panving skeich is made ison exhibition at J. B. Inguclia & Co.’s, 520 Merchant re-t, and will remain there to-day. The statement is made by the fishermen hat this is the first of the man-eating sharks ever caught in the Bay of San Francisco, although they are common enough in southern waters off the coast of Mexico and Central America. It is sur- mised that this young fellow lost the school to which he belonged and in seek- ing for warmer waters entered: the bay. He is well cquipped with three rows of teeth. The fishermen estimate that he was able to strike a 300-pound blow with his tail. st ONG LIST OF ERRORS Park Yesterday by the Santa Claras, The Hitting on Both Sides Was Very Light and the Fielding Poor. The San Francisco Violets were de- feated by the Santa Claras at Cential Park yesterday by a score of 3to 6. The hitting on both sides was very light and the Violets lost the game chiefly by the errors of fielders. In the ninth inningthe Violets made a strong effort to save them- selves and succeeded in scoring two more runs. Following is the score: VIoLE AB. R BH. SB.PO. A. E.

The resignation of Superintendent of Construction cf the New City Hall D, E, Meliis was pressnted to the City Hall Commission at its session yesterday and was accepted. Buperintendent Mellis has received a call to go to Venezuela as consulting en- ineer on an important piece of work. Villiam Lenihan, the foreman of the roo’, who was dismissed a few days ago for economical reasons, was reappointed to superintend the work, in the place of Mel- lis, at a salary of $150 a month. On account of the cracks in the concrete of the new roof it was decided to give it a coating of asphalt. —————— PERSONALS, W. D. McMillan of Benicia is at the Cosmo- politan, 0. H.

They looked upon her face and wept, for though the features were calm and re- poseful, as tae features of the dead always are, the sunken cheeks told of sorrow that preved upon the mind and body alike. The parted lips with the pink hue of life yet in them, the upper row of white, regu- lar teeth exposed as in iife, the refinea face, were tuose of the Dot of old, ana the friends of oid who looked upon her wept with the sincerest affection. Flowers that she loved in life were there in profusion. If her dying complaint written on the sands of tAe ocean beach that she had not received kinaness here was true, it was equaliy true that there was a world of kindness awaiting ber if she had looked in the right quarter—if she had turned irom Minear, tiie man, to the good and gentle of her own sex. Sweet paas, roses and lilies were there in wreaths and festoons and bougnets, put together not wit hired hands, but by the loving hands of iriends who found the ta k alaoor of love. “From Ed a,” read a card affixed to a bunch of swe t peas, The gift was from a little girl who lived in the same bouse with V olet and loveu heras an elder sisier. Then there were flowers from “F.orence and Alma,”’ friends of happier days. The man for whom she threw her young life away was not there. The services were simple and touching, bearing as they did so close a relation to the grief of the young girl who lay dead in the midst of the monrners. Reyv, W. 8. Urmy, pastor of the First M. E. Church, conducted the burial rites, and when he spoke of the dead the pathos of the refer- ence drew tears from all, Then came a portion of the twelfth chapter of Ecclesias:es, one of the grand- est philoophical poems in literature: “‘Oc ever the silver cord be loosed or the golden bowl be brok ‘n or the pitcher ba broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at ihe ci:tern. Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was, and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.” Hood’s beautiful poem, “The Bridge of Sighs,”’ was quoted by the reverend gen- tleman, and his recitation of the verses was punctuated with the sobs of the weeping women. And then the climax came 0 appropriately: Owning her weakness, Her evil b hivier; And teaviig with weakness Her suws (0 her Savior, The pall-bearers were young men who haa known and respected the poor girl in lit. They were: B. Whittemore, Charles Peters, William Peters, Fred Nor- man, Arthur Lewis and Whiting Briggs. The remains were taken to the Luurel Hill Cemetery, where a last praver was said by Rev. Mr. Urmy. The casket was placed in the vault to await the coming of W. F. Clowes, brother of the deceased, who is now on his way here. The inquest will not be held until the Coroner returns from his vacation, which will be some time next week. e THE MAN MINEAR. H> Did Not Go Home, and His Wife Went to San Jose. Ever since the publication of the fact that the last message of the suicide was addressed to humn and for substantial rea- sons, John I. Minear, the man in the case, has not gone home. He has been drink- ink heavily since the girl’s death and his consequent exposure, and remained away from uis shocked and heartbroken wife. His absence on Thursnay night alarmed her, and she went to the Coroner’s office to make inquiry for nim. While there she said that she had never heard of the girl before and that the revelations made |in the newspapers of her husband’s per- | fidy came upon her with the snaaenness | ofa thunderbolt. He did not go home on Friday night either, but spent the time in the Hammam Baths recuperating. Itwas i there that he tcld the story of his rela- tions with the girl. He did not admit that those relations were improper, but he said that he had kept company with her |ing with her. He took an interest, he | said, in her ambition to become an actress and helped her with advice. The last time he was in her company | was on July 2, when he took a trip to | 8tock on in one of the river steamers with her. After that trip it was determined that it would be better that their rela- brcken-hearted. suicide and that she had !eft a packet of | room at 415 Jones street he went to her | room and took them away. Inthe packet was a book, “Tne Imitation of Christ,” | which had been presented to her by Rev. | Father Ramm, a Catho/ic priest, who hada assisted in her conversion to that faith. To this book she had fastened a jeweled ring and had written on the flyleaf: “Al- ways keep and read this, as I loved it in my best and truest moods.

ANOTHER RICH MINE, Over Seven Million Tons of Ore to Be Had for One Dollar Por | Ton. | OAKLAND, Can, July 17— Captain Thomas Mein of this city is now in Alavka, as the agent of the Exploration Company of London. He has recently forvarded to the home office an interest- ing report concerning the Tread well mine | of that Territory. | He declares that the deposit of pay ore for several months and often went out rid- | tions should cease, and the girl went away | He said that after he had heard of her | his letters and other things for him in her | 13 much greater than has been antici- pated. Two sections that were considered waste on the 220 level have developed into the basc ore in the mine. He estimates that there are 400,000 tons | of goud mitling ore in the block. Alto- | gether he thinks there are 7,000,000tons | in that level. It is now proposed to build a dam on | Lemon Creek, which will give 180 feet bewdway, and to erect another eleetric vlant. He further recommends the erec. | tion of a 240-stamp mill at a cost of $500,- 000. With this and the one already in | operation, he says, the milling of the ore could be done at a cost not to exceed $1 per ton. 1 NEW PARK ENTRANCE. | Point Lobos Improvement Cluh Awake for Progress. At a meeting of the executive commit- tee of the Point Lobos Improvement Club held Friday evening the following resolu- tion was unanimously adopted: Resolved, That a committee of three be ap- | Park Commissio ers and urge ‘hem to a¢ once prepare plans and begin the construction |'of a permanent and snitab'e eutrance and gateway Lo the park opposite the end of First aveuue boulevard, now in course of construc- tion, and that they also coustruct s suitable driveway counecting the same with the main park drive, thereby forming and completing a continuous driveway from the Presidio reser- vaiion to the ocean beach and Balboa boule- vards. George R. Fletcher, James Dever and Frank B. Gibson were appointed a com- mittee to look afier the interests of the same. | the construction of a boulevard on Twenty- | fourth avenue, connecting the park w:ih the United Stales Government reservation at that point. This would, of course, necessitate the construciion of gateways at the park entrance and at McDowell avenue on the Presidio reservation; also the erection of a long bridge over Lobos Creek. The coramittee was unanimous in the opinion that the benefits to be derived wouid more than offset the expense to be incurred, and that the work should be | commenced without delay.

A fool there was an: (Even as you and I) To & r.g & bone and a hank of halr. ‘When Otto Dobbertin, the sculptor, first read the famous lines of Kipling and saw the cut of Burne-Jones’ equally famous painting which is supposed to have in- spired the lines, his ariist’s soul was { shocked. That such a beautiful composi- tion should be addressed to such a work as Jones’ seemed to him little short of sacrilege. Every time he read the lines or repeated them from memory in his soft musical voice there arose in his mind two visions, one of a ruined, desperate man, with disheveled hair and a pale, hopeless face; the other, a beautiful, fair-haired woman, smiling and debonair. And in this woman’s eves he saw alw the same expression, an expression which raii 1o him plainer than words: *‘lam done with vou—I have gotten everything you have— Now I have no further use for you.’ As the days went by and the sculptor repeated the poem, the beauty of which, to him, was ever marred by the insistent vision which came as a black cloud on a brilliant scene, his artistic senses rebelled. Try as he woula he could not put out of bis mind the picture which detracted from. bis enjoyment of the poem. It was not right, bie thonght. That a woman—a bad woman at thai—should ruin a good man and then contemptuously toss him aside was not flattering to the masculine vanity of Mr. Dubbertin. At last come to him an inspiration—one which he believes should be accepted by the world as much more worthy such a transcendent poem. The woman sbould no longer be allowed 10 spurn the man. He should be the one to do the spurning it thera was uny to be done. What right had a woman to deal contemptuously with a man? Itshould be the other way, which would be the natural way. And the artistic discord in the sculpior’s mind was immediasely dispelled. With a man of Mr. Dobbertin’s nature execution always quickly follows con- ception and at once he set to work to pnt into visible form his idea with the result that he just finished a remarkable work. The statue is that of two forms, tue male standing erect with face turned up- wurd and one arm extendea, as Mr. Dob- bertin expresses it, “Ciimbing the ladder of fame,”” while with the other hand he grasps the wrist of a woman and seems to be pushing her away. Sueison her knees in a supplicating a:titude, eviaently where Mr. Dobbertin thinks she ought to be. “That is as it should be” said the sculptor; *‘that is much more artistic—it has more strength—the man is tired of the woman— she retards his progress and he is putting her away so that shewcammot spoil hi future.’” The idea of 8 woman interiering with a man’s ambition. It is too presumptuous. The statue will be ready for exhibition shortiy, and the sculpter thinks his con- ception should receiv- universal com- mendation. He has cailed it, "*A Rag, & Bone and & Hank of Hair,”’ and no mat- ter what the verdict of his critics may be, Mr. Dobbertin has eased his artistic mind and assuaced his injured vanity. Thera was & fool and he made his prayer (kven as you and I) T0a rag. a boue and a hank of hair. The words now fall as sweet music on the sculptor’s ear, for has he not at last put the woman in her proper place—at the foot of man, and has not Burne-Jones been set an example which would serve d he made his prayer, 1 him in good stead ?
