John Schmidt and James Cheyen were killed. the The truth or falsity of these matters is especially referred to you for thorough investigation.’” The Judge then continued with an explanation of the rights, privileges and duties of grand jurors and their relations to others.

He says it was not over two seconds after cyclone struck him before it was all sver and he found himself under a part »f a lumber wagon with timbers, horses and machinery everywhere about him. He was unhurt, but badly shaken up. The storm passed on to the northeast, destroying everything in its wake, and was followed by rain in torrents and terrible lightning.

COUNTRY DWNCE ALMOST ENCS F A TRAGEDY Miss Elsie Jewell Is Badly Hurt. KICKED BY A RUNAWAY HORSE KNOCKED DOWN WHILE SAVING A YOUNGER SISTER. o L AccidentOccurs at Corte Madera Early Sunday Morning as the Pleas- ure Seekers Are Prepar- ing to Return. i While attempting to save her little sis- ter from being trampled to death by a runaway horse Miss Elsie Jewell, one of the most popular young belles of Lark- spur, was herself knocked down and se- verely injured at Corte Madera early Sunday morning. The accident occurred at the close of a dance given for the pur- pose of rafsing funds to build new side- walks at Larkspur. There were many young people present from the surround- ing country and in the excitement attend- ing the hurried preparations for depar- ture one of the anfmals became fright- ened and, freeing itself by a sudden jerk at the halter, started on a mad gallop down the road toward home. There was a general scurrying to get out of the way and the little Jewell girl fell directly in the path of the frightened animal. Miss Jewell saw her sister fall and, ralizing her danger, ran to her res- cue. She had barely time to push the child into a place of safety when the run- away was upon her. She was knocked down and the flying hoofs of the horse #lruck her on the head. inflicting pain- ful wounds and rendeéring her uncon- scious. Dr. Hopper of San Francisco, who was in the party, did everything pos- sible for the injured girl and accompan- ied her to her home. Miss Jewell also recelved several cuts and bruis about the body, but it Is not thought that any of them will prove serlous. The runaway was not captured until it reached San Rafael.

R Noted Anatomist Pronounces New Champion the World's Most Perfect Physical Specimen. LE e the Spectal Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, June 12.—In the area of the Coney Island Sporting Club, in which he won the championship of the world from “Bob” Fitzsimmons, on Friday night, James J. Jeffries to-night | boxed three rounds with “Jim” Daly, his sparring partner. When the big fellow climbed through the ropes and seated himself in the corner which he occupied when he fought Fitzsimmons, 5000 throats bellowed forth a welcome that fairly shook the building. The champion acknowledged the greeting by bowing and smiling to all. He then put on the gloves and sparred three lively two-minute rounds, during which he hit Daly’pretty hard, much to the delight of the crowd. Once or twice Daly landed on Jeffries rather hard, and several indlviduals shouted “Put him out, Daly.” There were cries for a speech at the end of the bout, and Jeffries, after consider- | able urging, responded. Said he: “Gentlemen, I thank you for your | kind applause, and I will do my best to defend the championship.” “Bob” Fitzsimmons has declined to accept Jeffries' offer of a benefit at the Coney Island Sporting Club on Satur- day night. Martin Julian, manager of the former champion, explained Fitz- simmons’ declination as follows: | “Fitzsimmons is not in need of finan- | cial assistance from any one at pres- ent; then again, he is considering the advisability of another match with Jeffries. Were he to accept a benefit from Jeffries now it would place him in a rather awkward position. In other words, we do not think it would be con- sistent on Fitzsimmons' part to accept a benefit from a man of whom he may later demand a return match. Fitesim- | mons appreciates the generous offer of | Jeffries, but he cannot accept it.” Jeffries has arranged to spar in the following places during the week: Hartford, to-morrow night; New Lon- don, Wednesday night; Providence, Thursday night; Boston, Friday night. One of the greatest anatomists in America, or in the world, has examined the new champion prizefighter. The opportunity to bring the two men to- gether was afforded when Jeffries was taken by his manager to Philadelphia. The anatomist who there examined Jeffries is Dr. T. Hollingsworth An- drews, who became well known the country over at the time he was a WS TO WEET [l demonstrator of anatomy at the Jeffer- | son Medical College, and who examined more of the world's famous athletes | than any other surgeon In America. Of | | comfortable means, he has retired from active practice of his profession, though the city of Philadelphia still retains his services as surgeon of the Police Department. Every policeman on the Philadelphia force—and many of them are giants:- has undergone a thorough physical ex- amination by Dr. Andrews. He has scientifically examined 25,000 men. One fad of the great anatomist for years has been physical examination of the | world’'s great athletes, both in Europe |and America. | As a result of the examination he has pronounced the new champion to be to-day the most perfect physical specimen in the world. In the very points where such men as John L. Sullivan and Sandow have beén weak, Jeffries was found to be strong. After an examination lasting an hour, no physical defect was found. |FLY-BY-NIGHT WINS THE FALCON STAKES ‘C-rb\mcle Made the Medium of a | “Killing” by Bettors at | Latonia.

PROJECTED TUNNEL UNDER THE OCEAN Britons Favor the Scheme of Bring- ing England and Ireland Into Closer Accord. LONDON, June 12—At a largely at- ténded meeting of peers, commoners, en- gineers and others held this evening in the House of Commons, a resolution was adopted to address a petition to the First | Lord of the Treasury, Arthur J. Balfour, relative to the projected tunnel between Ireland and England. The scheme is fa- vored on the ground that it would not only unite England and Ireland more closely, but tend to bring the United States and the United Kingdom into more intimate accord. The proposed route is a distance of twenty-five miles under eighty-five fath- oms of water, and the estimated cost of the undertaking is £12,000,000 ($60,000,000). s B Jurors to Try Pool Room Cases.

But neither the War Department nor General Otis as recognized it in a public manner in a way that might soothe the feelings of the volunte or the constant evidences of distrust, sometimes amounting to con- tempt, manifested toward them previous to the opportunity they had of proving their worth. From the rank and file ot the regulars the volunteers receive their full measure of praise. They attribute the superiority of the volunteers here to the experiences of their Western life. Foreign military experts on the ground write in the frank admission that the best army of its size in the world to-day is the small body of volunteers which has accom- | plished in three months what Spain did | not achieve in 300 years. | However, the volunteers do not make a life business to engage in war. | of the opinion that it is high time for | the regular forces to relleve them and take up the work which they make their | profession.

S Spectal Cable to The Call and the New York Herald. Copyrighted, 155, by James Gor- don Bennett PARIS, June 12. day: “I am very M. Charron said to- much surprised at the turn the proposed international au- tomobile match has taken. It promised at the start to be a serious affair, but apparently it has stopped off suddenly. “Mr. Winton issued a challenge for any amount. I took him up, fixed the stakes at 100,000 francs and accepted all the conditions made by Mr. Winton. I paid over to the Herald 20,000 francs as a forfeit. “I do hope the American sportsmen will understand this difference between the terms akes' and ‘forfeit,” as 20,000 | francs forfeit cannot and never could be twisted into meaning ‘stakes.’ “Having placed this 20,000 francs for- feit in the hands of the Herald, Mr. Winton does in a like manner, deposit- ing his 20,000 francs in the office of a New York newspaper. But this prov beyond any question that Mr. Winten accepted the conditions I laid down and which were published immediately in the Herald. “New York newspapers which have | taken up the interests of Mr. Winton | so much in this matter will sureiy find money enough through their readers, among whom will be found persons who have confidence enough in Mr. | Winton and who will complete the sum in his behalf which is fixed in my let- ter published in the Herald. But the whole sum should be placed with the Herald, where my forfeit now lies, and where I shall pay in the stak: “I may say that »o far as I am con- cerned 100,000 francs was found in twen- ty-four hours. Just as socon as Mr. Winton finds an equal amount I will pay over to the Herald the full sum of 1100,000 francs. I hope Mr, Winton on hig part will do likewise. - - | AUTOMOBILES FOR | SANTA CLARA COUNTY | | Line to Be Placed in Operation for the Transportation of Passengers. SAN JOSE, June 12.—Automobiles prom- ise to be an important factor in settling | the various portions of Santa Clara Coun- ty and making San Jose a business center. L. Lion & Sons have large land interests at San Martin, eighteen miles south | here, and they are contemplating putting | on two automobiles between this city and San Martin. The firm owns over 5000 acres | there and it is proposed to cut them in | small tracts. Two of the firm will go East in a few d and while there wiil investigate automobiles. If they should prove a success on the San Martin route more will be purchased and the auto- transportation scheme extended in all di- rections, taking in Campbell. Los Gatos, Milpitas, Mayfleld, Mountain View and Palo Alto. The expense of operation is slight and from fifteen to eighteen miles an hour or a little more could be made on the fine roads of Santa Clara County. This would furnish quick and cheap transportation. Thousands of visitors would be attracted to San Jose by the introduction of these machines and as the routes would run through the prettiest orchard districts of the county it would advertise th: Death of an Educator.
