Red, Yellow and Pink Dwell Together in Mutual Rebellion, The Board Forsook High-Priced Chairs for Oocobola Trimmings and Artists Weep, It was a rustic damsel whoinformed the dry-goods clerk that she wished no “flary- garey colors—jest plain red and yaller. 1t was the Board of Regents of the Uni- versity of California which fitted out one of the handsomest rooms in the Hopkins Art Institute in pink, yellow and red— especially red. It is the local artists who say things which require no knowledge of technique to understand every time they inadvertently find their esthetic gaze wandering in the direction where wise authority is wont to condnet its decorous deliberations, amid hues which howl mal- ediction at each other. The room where the regents have broken ihe ten commandments of artig one which in days of yore was the delight of the learnedly aeschetic. It was origi- nally the guest chamber of the Hopkins mansion, and as befitted the hospitality of the owners it was the most beautiful room in the house. A great bay-window lets in abundant light from the south and commands a magnificent view of the water. The room itself is finished in cocobola, a rare and beautiful wood which takes a magnificent finish. The polisher had here expended his greatest skill. The delicate pink tone was brought out beau- tiluliy and the effect was a feast to the eye of the artistic mild paintings of dreamy-eyed pine and musty-looking monasteries hung upon the wall. Yellana had a sunset which showed effectively amid its subdued surround- ings, and there was a general air of peace- ful propriety about the room which filled the keart of its beholder with joy. Right bere is where the regents appear upon the scene. For a number of years the regents have been meeting in the music-room of the in- stitute. The music-room is admittedly the coldest room in the house, and has several other minor disadvantages, but it is furnished with chairs which cost $300 apiece and a table which cost thousands. Some people would hesitate before ing any but an expensive motion on that kind of a table, but nothing is 100 zood for the regents. There was a subtle attraction about those $3u0 hand-embroidered chairs that was noi to be lightly resisted. Inthe music-room camped the revents. Three hundred doliar chairs and $1000 tables may be pretty warm in the und r- standing that prevails on the curbstone, but in the literal worid of fact they ward off no more drafts and cnills than would ,the $75 installment sets constructed for novices in matrimony. That's why Judge Wallace had a continual cold in his head and his Excellency’s rul:ngs were inter- rupted by the sneezing concerts of Arthur Rodgers and Timothy Guy Phelps. This condition of zffairs had about reached a climax when some one whis- pered to some one who knew a regent that upstairs there wes a room furnisbed in cocobola. That settled it. If there was any cocobola in the house they wanted it, and the room committee was sent coco- bola-hanting. It stalked the game successtully and the old guest chamber was marked for their— kindness forbids the word slaughter. The committee was shocked to find the room had no carpet. The floor was pol- ished till you could see vour face in it, but that wasn’t a carpet. The committee was accordingly empowered to purchase one. The secretary of the institute refused to allow them to move the chairs that cost three hundred plunkers and the table that cost enough to start a bank. That meant | more furniture. tute a short time after pletea their furnisbings toward the old guestroom. He gasped and blinked savagely. Then he lookea again, and the awful truth forced itself upon him. The regents had seiected a carpet that was red—a bpold, defiant, ruddy red—that shone out where tne light struck it like an intoxicated danger signal. There were fizures worked in it, and they were red. The somber pink of the cocobola faded away to a dull brown. Yellanda’s sunset was about as expre ive as an overdone fried egg. The cows looked as thoush they would have been unfortunate to encounter the tuberculin inspector. The only things that could stand the shock wese those new tables and chairs. In the selection of tables and chairs the committee showed its partiality tored did not amount toa hobby. Red might be well enough for a carpet, but for tables and chairs they wanted something bright. That is why they chose yellow. When a Board of Regents feels like sit- ting in yellow chairs at yellow tables, it might just as well be understood it 1s go- ing to Yo it, and no oid red carpet or cocobola finishing is going to ve consulted. Thats why Keith murmured in agony, and 1o rest his eye went and gazed out of i the window at a sunset, as he sees them. Graduaily he managed to work himself aown to the things of this earth. Tie new furnishings of the guestroom have a great many admirers, especially on the free day. Secretary Martin says it is a greal nuisance the way the Chinese monopolize that day. Taeir ideas of art are mainly of the josshouse order. MERCHANTS' O-RTIFICATES, Their Price in Foreign Ports Has Been Advanced 1o $95. Collector of Customs Jackson said yes- terday that he was preparing etter to the Treasury Department, suggesting that American Consuls at ports, such as Ma- cao, shipping shiploads of mercbants and other than laborers, should be requested to refuse to vise certificates unless they know that the holders of the certificates are other than laborers. It is not b:lieved, however, that the suggestion will do any good. A Consul who would certify that a of whom he knew nothing was a merchant is beyo nd the reach of purely verbal suggestion. The market value of certificates has been advanced to $95 each. —_——— Hurt by a >hunting-Stick.

Philip Barth, a prominent member of the Stock and Bond Exchange and one of the most successiul financial brokers of this city, died in Paris yesterday. The news was received here by cable and caused great sorrow among the friends and relatives of the dead broker. The deceused had been in Europe for several years, and had been sutfering for some time from organic trouble. It is propable that death resuited from a surgi- cal operation which was performed in Paris about ten days ago. r. Barth was & native of Bohemia and was about 45 vears of age. Coming to this city in the early '70s he entered the em- ploy of L. Glazier & Co., stockbrokers, as a clerk, and in 1881, when the firm went cut of b ess, Mr. Barth became a broker on his own account. Two years later he joined the Stock and Bond Exchange. He was interested with a great many heavy transactions in stocks and bonds and amassea a considerable fortune. His relatives in this city consist of a brother, Jacob Barth, who is also a mem- ber of the Stock and Bond Exchange, and two sisters. He aiso bad relati n New York and Europe. —————— ADVANCES made on_ furniture and pianos, with orwithout removal. J. Noouan, 1017-1028 Mission REVENUE REQEIPTS.

Waldron, colored, convicted of assault, has been sentenced 10 serve three months in the County Jail, ALMA 03BORNE HAS SKIPPED The Cleverest of Panel- Workers Eludes the Authorities. Said by the Police to Be One of the Most Dangerous of Criminals, Left Her Bondsmen in the Lurch. Sevkral Oharges. A vigorous but thus far vain search is being made for Alma Osborne, alias Maud Smith, alias Annie Williams, alias Lillie Thompson, who is considered by the po- lice to be one of the most dangerous women that has visited this coast in sev- eral years. The police want her on a charge of grand larceny, but her bondsmen are the most anxious, believing that she has skipped, leav ng them to settle up with the city, to the extent of $2000. "It is said that these same bondsmen were paid $150 each to qualify as her sureties. Alma Osborne’s specialty is the panel game, which she has worked with auccess in several towns on this coast, and it was for an offense of thiskind that she was ar- rested on August 15. She induced a guliible indiviaual named Jobn Griffes to t her in an apartment she had rented at 321 Elii« street, and while there he was robbed of $70. The woman had a wardrobe with a siiding panel in the back, placed againsta door leading into an adjoining room, and a confederate did the sneak thisf work, taking $70 out of the $170 in Griffes’ pockets. The dupe discovered his loss be- fore he had been ten minutes out of the woman’s company, and notified Police- man Frank Riley, who found her in her rooms at 42 Turk street, with her trunks pucked and ready to leave. Griffes iden- tified the woman, and she was charged with grand larceny. With San Quentin staring her in the face, she made every effort to regain her liberty, and after having been held by Judge Low for trial before the Superior Court in $1000 bonds, offered to put up $500 cash bail. Judge Low at first agreed to sccept this, but was warned that she would leave the State the instant she was released from custody, and finally refused to let her go. Then the woman and her friends tried another tack and went to judge Campbell with the piea that Judge Low was not to be found and that it was working a hard- ship on the woman to keep her longer in jail. He was prevailed upon to accept bonds in the sum of $2000 and did so. Since than Alma Osborne - has been miss- believed by the police that she has left for distant parts. Itis known that on the day of her re- Wanted in Los Angeles on | ing from her accustomed haunts and it 1s | believed to be her went out on the South- ern overland on the Jay after her release and it is surmised that she adopted her | somber garb to conceal her identity from | the officials of Los Angeles and other towns where she is wanted. | Her case was called in Judge Cook’s | court on Saturday last, but as she failed | to answer the matter went over for a | week. Yesterday it came up again and as she was still absent her bail was ordered forfeited and a bench warrant issued for her arrest. Since the day of her arrest the police have discovered that Alma Osborne, under one or another of her numerous aliases, is wanted by the police in many place: At Los Angeles the authorities would like to serve warrants on her on charges of grand larceny and embezzlement. There, as here, she worked the panel game with success and boasted that nine out of ten of her victims were “afraid to squeal.” She is described as a young woman of attractive appearance and a smooth talker. She always dresses in fashionable garb and is credited with careiully selecting her victims before attempting to acquire possession of their coin. J, F. TURNER SENTENCED, Condemned to Wear Stripes in the State Prison for Ten Years. John F. Turner, convicted of perjury, was yesterday sentenced by Judge Carroll Cook to serve len years in the State prison. This result was a great surprise to Tur- ner, for he has defeated the courts so long that he had come to have a Napoleonic faith in his star of destiny. When he ap- peared yesterday it seemed impossible in his mind for him to lose, since he expect- ed the court to grant the motion for an order in arrest of judgment that had been interposed by his attorney, George D. Col- lins, It was not until after this motion was denied tiat Turner began to realize that he stood indangerof striped clothing and a term of service behind bars. When the judgment of tbe court was pronounced Turner turned pale with as- tonishment. For the first time in his va- ried career luck or fate, or whatever he might call it, seemed to be against him, Many times he had been indicted and oth- erwise chargeda with crime, but hitherto he bad escaped near approach to panish- ment. He had deceived such astute finan- ciers as Asa Fiske, '‘Nooby” Clarke and otners of that class, and now at last he felt the ciutch of the law tightening on his collar. But he did rot despair, for he thought of the chances for escape and de- lay that lie in an appeal to the Supreme Court. Within an hour after the passing of sen- tence Turner had secured from the Su- preme Court a writ of probable cause and had prepared his papers on appeal. Pena- ing the hearing of the case in the upper court Turner will apply to be released on bonds. other charges are pending against Turner in the Superior Court. REE NN S e e Figel Arraigned. Theodore A. Figel was arraigned in Judge Carroll Cook’s court yesterday on seven charges of embezzlement and two charges of orgery. Two of the embezz'ement charges were objecied to by the defendant’s at:orney, and he was given & week in which to make further scrutiny of the pleadings. To the re. maining charges Figel p.eaded not guilty. It 18 understood that the murder charge will be tried first, the District Attorney having au- thority to choose which case shall take pre- cedence. The murder case will be set for teia] next Sawarday. st A Lol R Saturday Union Bible Study.
