Way, Who Taught San Francisco’s First School, Laid to Rest. ALAMEDA, Oct. 11.—The funeral of the {late Thomas H. Way took place at 11 o'clock this morning from the residence, corner of Madison and Market streets. Rev. W. W. Scudder officiated. Deceased was a pioneer of the State, having come to California during the first rush for gold. He located in San Fran- sco, and during the year 1849 Mr. Way and his wife taught the first school opened in San Francisco and took first pupils to receive instruction in that city. Mr. and Mrs. Way were both born in | England, in which country they had both | been thoroughly educated. Mr. Way was an accomplished Latin and Greek schoiar. and Mrs. Way, whose maiden name was Maria Wheeler, was proficient in music and French particularly. The voung peo- | ple both went to Sydney, Australia, and | there met and were married, fifty years | month. They had decided to come Francisco and open a school there, and Mr. Way had a house ready built, in sections, to take along. They embarked for the new EI Dorado at once, spending their homeymoon on the ocean. Arriving in San Francisco, they put their house together and in due time put up a sign that pupils would be taken, the first of the kind in the then rapidly growing min- ing camp. The school prospered from the start, and it was not long before it pe- came necessary to seek larger quarters. A larger buildlng was erected on Bryant | street, in the old South Park district, to | which the school was later on removed. In the earlier days they received as high as $200 per, month for the tuttion of a sin- gle pupil. The greater part of the couple's active life was given up to their private school. For a brief period they were em- Eloyw} at the University of the Pacific e as a teacher of Latin and Greek and she as a teacher of music. They contin- ued their residence in South Park, San Francisco, until set they came to this city to reside. Mr. Way was an earnest Christjan and devoted a great deal of time to church and mission work. For many years he was superintendent of the Chinese Sun- day school of the First Congregational Church of San Francisco. He was also a deacon of that church. Since his residence in this city Mr. Way has been prominent in the First Corgregational Church here, and was greatly respected and esteemed by all who knew him. Mrs, Way survives her husband.

Captain Wallace voiced the sentiment £ the meeting when he .at ihe log rafts were the most to be feared of all dangers to sea navigation. “Thousands of lives were endang: the raft of logs which has recent towed into this port after drifting about for three weeks,” he sa:d. “Full soldiers entered and left San Franc on the transports during that brief pe- riod, in addition to the thousands of pas- sengers on other vessels. 1f any of these ships had struck that raft they would have gone to the bottom, and enormous loss of life would have resulted. A dere- lict raft like a huge rock out in mid- ocean with no signal lights to warn ap- proaching vessels and no convenient shore to which passengers might escape after the wrecking of their ship.” On motion of Captain Wallace, the sec- retary was instructed to compils lated statement of the number of ships that arrived and departed from this port while the-derelict raft was adrift, gether with the number of passe each and the value of the ships and their cargoes. This statement will be attached | to a petition which will be sent to every | member of Congress, asking for an | amendment to the navigation laws pr | hibiting log rafts from entering or leav- ing a port on the Pacific Coast A bill of this kind w last session of Congress and passed by the Senate, but failed to get through the House owing to the pressure of other business. This time it is proposed to keep | up the agitation until the me: re is en- | acted into iaw. An invitation was extend- | ed to all other organizations to send rep- | resentatives to co-operate with the com- t and mittee, en an adjournment was | taken until Wednesday night. | —_———— " PROBABLY FATAL FALL. J. Maccabe, Attorney, Has His | Skull Badly Fractured in a | Florist’s Store. I J. Maccabe, an attorney at Larkin and Grove streets, met with an accident yesterday that will probably prove fatal.

He was taken to the Receiving Hospital in an unconscious condition and Dr. Stephen found that his skull had been badly fractured and his chances for recov- ery were doubtful. Maccabe came to this city from New York about eight years ago and estab- lished an office on Market street, giving advice gratis. He is said to own mines in Colerado and to be worth about $50,000.
