In order to gain recognition of this na- ture at the hands of the institute remark- able service must be rendered in the in- terest of science. Very few Americans have been honored ‘with this distinction. This is not the first time Professor Davidson has been honored by foreign ed- ucational bodies. In 1894 he was unani- mously elected a corresponding member of the Bureau of Longitude of France ani in 1878, for his services as president of the jury of awards of machinery at the Parls Exposition, he received a commemorative medal and’diploma. = " i /"““‘“/, ) V" el N i\, \\ \ J £ 5. ! PROF. DAVIDSON, WHOSE WORK HAS WON FOR HIM NEW HONORS. o 'LONG PENDING: LIT TERMINATES OUT OF COURT Settlement of Debris Controversy Enables the Government to Bui The obstacle which has prevented the United States Government from proceed- ing with the construction of a dam in Yuba County for the impounding of debris has finally been removed. United States District Attorney Woodworth yesterday received information from the law firm of Forbes & Dinsmore that a deed from Ste- | phen Harrison for certain property neces. sary for the construction of the dam, ac- | companied by a letter of submission, had | been forwarded under the date of April 10 to the California Debris Commission. Thus a long pending suit for the con- demnation of Harrison's property has been amicably settled and the Government is left at liberty to commence its work. The suit is still pending in the courts, BRICK’S WIFE OUTWITS HER SPOUSE’S WAITING CREDITORS Walks Out of Columbian Bank With Gold and Notes | and Smiling at Her Discomfited Watchers. While anxious ereditors of Brick & Co. were hurrylry and scurrying to secure an attachment On moneys deposited in the safe deposit vaults of the Columbian Bank, shortly before noon yesterday, Mrs. Brick, laden with gold and currency, walked out of the bank, winked one twinkling eve at Detective Curtin, the expectant merchants and anxious credi- tors, and took the money to some place | where attachments are hard to place. The woman in the case is supposed to have been interested in the affairs of the clothing firm at 2829 Greenwich street, which had been selling raiment to soldiers about to be discharged. She rented a safe deposit box from the Columbian Bank, and frequently deposited large sums of money there. Her husband in the meanwhile se- cured credit with various business houses to the amount of $16,000.

The Government was unable to carry out the provisions of ths act because of the refusal of Harrison 1o dispose of his properiy, and a condemna- tion suit was accordingly instituted by United States District Attorney Frank L. Coombs, Work will be commenced in Yuba Coun- ty -immediately. The settlement means the protection ¢f rivers and harbors and the expenditure of larze additional sums | in the future as the occasion may require. Yuba and Sutter counties are especially interested because there are the lanas hich have suffered most from the over- ?Uws due to unrestrained hydraulic min- ng: | Co. were the heaviest creditors, and mourn the loss of almost $6000, while the balance of the accounts are . scattered througn the entire wholesale district. ‘When Brick went to collect money from members of the Thirtieth Infantry, re- cently discharged, he was treated to a blanket ascension. He claimed that dur- ing his involuntary aerial flight he dropped ! a large amount of money, previously col- lected, and thai the discharged soldiers ran off with it as fast as it fell from his pockets. Investigation Set on Fogt. This tale of woe was repeated to each creditor in turn, but an investigation was set on foot, which, it is claimed, led to the discovery that Brick, instead of being financially blanketed, had stowed away the proceeds of his sales. Curtin's agency was engaged to find out some- thing about him and his actions. By means of a decoy letter it was ascertained that Mrs. Brick had a large amount of money in the vaults of the Columbian Bank. Attorney Napthaly went out to the City Hall yesterday to get a writ of attach- ment and Mrs. Brick went to the bank in | extreme haste to get the money, but for- | ot her key. Her husband had a dupli- cate one, the box was opened and the money taken out. Mrs. Brick, supported on either side by | her husband and brother-in-law, walked out of the bank vaults just five minutes before Attorney Napthaly, a deputy sheriff and the writ of attachment ar- | rived. Now the creditors are guessing | what disposition has been made of the | money, pending the new civil and possible | eriminal complications that wiil follow. Did Big Business With Soldiers. Of the antecedents of the Bricks but little is known. They came here from Washington, D. C., ‘about the time the war broke out and started the small place | on Greenwich street. The original firm name was Brick & Rubenstein, and ap- |parently interested in the affair were A. Weinberg and Morris Brick. They did a big_business with mustered-out soldlers, and reaped a_rich harvest. Later, Abra- ham Brick, the head of the firm, took apartments at the Hotel Miramar, where he still resides and i{s now watched by detectives. If he attempts to leave the State it is propnsed to stop him by means of_criminal proceedings. Brick clams to be without ready means, but offers to settle with his creditors on the basis of 25 cents cash, 12% cents in six months, ani a similar amount at the end of the year. The matter now is in the hands of the creditors, who propose to use every means in their power to take off some of the gold plating from the inside lining of the Brick family pockets. General Shafter has ordered an investi- gatiog into the matter, and the alleged participation of Major Steele of the Thir- tieth Infantry in the blanket tossing epi- sode, It is not expected that any report gn this matter will be made for several s, Saloon-Keeper in Trouble. George Grueber, saloon-keeper, St. Mary's and California streets, was arrest. ed yesterday on a wsrrant charging him with receiving stolen property. He is ac- cused of buying from Frank Leonard a gold watch and diamond ring stoien from E. C. Mausshardt of th= tug Relief, valued at $140, knowing that they were stolen. Leonard has been arrested on a charge of grand larceny. Playing cards, poker chips, crib boards, dice and®tally cards:_the very best as- sortment and the low®t prices. For sale WOMEN MARAGERS BECEIVE CUESTS Fiftieth Anniversary of the Founding of Protestant Orphan Asylum. Many Friends of California’s First Organized Charity Entertained by a Programme of Songs by Children. The fiftleth anniversary of the founding of the San Francisco Protestant Orphan Asylum was celebrated yesterday after- noon. The institution and the children were in gaga day attire and hundreds of friends were received between the hours of 3 and 5 o'clock. The rooms of the asylum presented their usual appearance, except that the or- dinary routine was suspended. Flowers brightened the reception room and flam- ing bunches of poppies lent color to corri- dors and dormitories. The members of the board of manage- ment and the matron, Mrs, E. A. Mec- Near, Teceived the fuesl& The managers present were the following named: Mrs. William Alvord, president; Mrs. ‘William Ashburner, first vice president; Mrs. C. O. Gerberding, second vice presi- dent; Mrs. Kirkham Wright, treasurer; Mrs. Frederick MacCrellish, secretary; Mrs. Albert T. Spotts, assistant secre- tary; Miss Agnes Center, Mrs. Horace Davis, Mrs. Charles P. Eells, Miss Anna P. Greer, Mrs. Henry Haight, Mrs. D, W. Horsburgh, Mrs. Louis F. Monteagle, Mrs. John Moss, Mrs. Charles . Slack, Mrs. William R. Smedberg and Mrs. A. N. Tal ot. Miss Nellie Stow, the only member not present, is traveling in Europe. Visitors were shown the bullding from cellar to garret. Evidence of excellent system in management, scrupulous clean- liness and wholesomeness of influence was to he seen everywhere. The nursery, the kindergarten, sewing rooms, kitchen, storerooms, dining rooms, dormitories and the Infirmary on the top floor were all _inspected with interest by the One lone little tot, sick in the in- , was the ovly visible evidence that the children cared for by the institution ever have 1ills. Keith Makes a Gift. The hearts of the women managers were gladdened early in the day by the arrival of a beautiful landscape, daintily framed, the gift of Keith. It was hung in the schoolroom. The boys were dressed in their best suits and the girls from the smallest tots up to those of 14 and even older wore their neat- est dresses. Collectively they presented as pretty a picture of happy, healthy chiidhood as one need long to see, and guests departing beamed with happiness and gratitude that such an institution ex- ists to make the present bright and the future hopeful for unfortunate children, whom death has deprived of parents. During the afternoon the children sang choruses and solos and marching songs and went through the simple dances in the schoolroom for the entertainment of the visitors. The programme began with kindergarten songs and ended with a duet, “Jerusalem,” by two of the older boys, the older boys and girls joining in the chorus. It was excellently done, the ef- fect approaching that of the singing of picked and trained boy choristers. Refreshments were served at tables at one end of the schoclroom during and following the children’s songs. Mrs. Hor- ace Davis had immediate charge of that portion of the entertainment. Fifty Years of Noble Effort. The San Francisco Protestant Orphan Asylum was actually founded February 10, 1851, when a constitution was adopted and a board of managers elected. This action followed a preliminary meeting at the First Presbyterian Church on Stock- ton street January 3l. This was the in- auguration of the first organized charity in California. Dorations were solicited and a cottage in “Happy Valley,” now near Natoma and Second streets, was occupied as an asy- lum March 19. Five boys and four girls were the first inmates and a Mrs. Wilson was matron. In the following December the asylum was moved to a house on Fol- som street, near Second. The present site, on Haight street, be- tween Laguna and Buchanan, was pur- chased from the city February 28, 1853, for the nominal sum of $100. A solid foun- dation was found beneath the sand of the ‘hills that formed the site, stone was ghar- ried near by and a building begun which now forms the center of the substantial main_structure. It was .completed in March, 1854, and the sixteen children of the asylum were moved into it. Additions to the building were made in 1859 and 1862. The main wing, begun in 1862, was the gift of the Sansome Hook and Ladder Company, made on the dis- banding of that organization of volunteer firemen. The ground for that wing was given by James Lick. All gifts to the institution have been carefully preserved intact, only the in- come being used, and in consequence a considerable endowment fund has been collected. The present managers and trustees feel that the wisdom of those first in_control made the institution what it is. During the existence of the asylum 3520 children have been sheltered and educated in it and have gone out through its por- tals to lead in the main useful lives. At present there are 165 children in the asylum, of whom seventy-two are girls and ninety-three boys. The cash receipts for 1900 were $34,845 66, and the expendi- tures were $758 62 less than that amount. Expenses included the building of a new steam laundry. Gifts aggregating nearly $6000 were made to the asylum last Christ- mas. The board of trustees is composed of Samuel T. Bigelow, Willlam Babcock, Charles R. Bishop, William B. Hooper and S. Prentiss Smith. NEW TRAINS ON ___ COAST .LINE Also Some Changes to Take Plas To-Day. A new schedule goes into effect on the Cdast Line of the Southern Pacific to-day which involves quite a number of impor- tant changes. Several trains will have their runs considerably lengthened and in some places additional trains are found necessary to handle the growing travel. The noteworthy changes are as follows: The South San Francisco train, leaving Third and Townsend streets at 6:10 o'clock, will be extended to Palo Alto, and a new San Jose suburban train will be put on, leaving here daily at 10:30 a. m. The morning local to Santa Cruz, Pacific Grove and way points, which was changed on the 3ist ult. from 9 o’clock to 9:30, will be put back to 9 and its run extended to San Luis Obispo. This being the opening of the summer excursion travel to Monterey Bay points, the two Sunday excursion trains to those points will be resumed on Sunday next, one leaving from Third and Townsend streets at 7:15 a. m. and the other from the ferry depot via the narrow gauge at 7:45 a. m. To-morrow night will be the last hunters’ accommodation train for this season. On Sunday next a slight change will be made in the Stockton-Fresno service. The train now leaving at 3:30 p. m. for Stockton and Lodi, via Martinez, will be changed to the Fresno run via Merced, and the train now leaving at 4 p. m. via Livermore for Fresno will be changed to the Stockton and Lodi run, still via Liver- more.

Edward D. BReylard. driver of the re- christened Burlingame coach, was regu- larly elected a member of the Hackmen's Union last night, but the expected initia- tion did not occur. The member whose duty it was to mnotify the prospective brother to be present and ready to ride a goat said to be harder to handle than any four piebalds in the State, failed, through {llness, to give the notice. ‘Beylard, knowing that his name was to be up for consideration fcr membership, felt a delicacy about appesaring at the door prepared for injtiaticn. He remained away and spent the evening with his Pal- ace Hotel associates. . The hackmen are a reasonable set and they cberish no ill-will on account of Beylard's non-appearance. They have all confidence that the Burlin- game whip will be present at the next weekly meeting. Yet there was much disappointment feit last night. An unusuaily large attend- ance attested to the desire of the hack- men to see the tallyho driver put through his paces on a union goat. Jod Burns. Dennis Murphy, Mike Higgins and other old-timers were there, rubbing their hands in glowing anticipation of the fun. When H. C. Rawlins explained that he had failed to notify the candidate to be pres- ent he was able to square himself only by a solemn promise to have Beylard given due notice before the next meet- ing. ““You see it is just like this,” “Mike” Coffey, president of the union, explained. “a man has a month to show up for initi- ation after his application goes in. Mr. Beylard's application went in a week ago, g0 he's got lots of time yet. If he toes the mark before the next moon, he'll be one of us for sure, and a good 'un he’ll make, gamble on it. If he don't get in- itiated inside of a month it’s all up with his five-fifty aud he's no better off than when he first got called down for being non-union.” Clara McCann Discharged. The charge of vagrancy against Clara McCann brought at the instance of J. J. Gottlob of the Columbiz Theater was dis- missed by Judge Mogan yesterday. A jury had been summoned and after twelve men were_in the box Assistant District Attor- ney Harris admitted that he had no evi- dence to convict the woman as Gottloo was on his way to Europe and there was no other testimony against her. Miss Mc- Cann appeared in court in a stylish tailor- made costume of gray. EXPOSURE CAUSE OF GIRL'S DEATH Verdict of Coroner’s Jury in| the Case of Aileen Sutliff. . —_— A Coroner’s jury decided yesterday that Afleen J. Sutliff of 1912 Central avenue ! died of tubercular peritonitis, “hastened | by exposure and neglect.” The witnesses who convinced the jury | that the little four-year-old girl had been | maltreated and unnecessarily exposed to the rigor of the weather were Mrs. Bessie Halpin, Mrs. Ray Schmidt, Mrs. Chad- bourne, Mrs. Bolin, Mrs. Martin, Mrs. Clements and indirectly Offfter H. Me- Murray and Beverly Hughes. The women, wno are neighbors of the Sutliffs on Central avenue, told how they had _seen little Aileen in the Sutliff back yard from early morning until sunset “in all kinds of weather,” except rainy, and clad only in light, washable goods. Mrs. Chadbourne of 1914 Central avenue said that her little girl told her that Aileen had informed her that she (Aileen) was obliged to remain in the back yard be- cause her mother would not let her re- main indoors. The witness often saw the child digging in the ash barrel for pleces of bread. She had seen the child in the yard as late as 5 o'clock in the afternoon in_cold, wintry weather. She also saw Afleen’s face on several occasions bearing marks of scratches and bruises. Other witnesses saw Mrs. Sutliff beat the child in the back with her clenched fists until the little one fell on the steps and the father carried her into the house. Mrs. Ray Schmidt of 1914% Central ave- nue told about the child being exposed and of having seen her eat dry bread out of the ash barrel with evident relish. Officer McMurray of the Society for the Prevention of Crueity to Children nar- rated a visit by himself to the Sutliff res- idence last Jul(. neighbors having com- plaired that Aileen was being beaten and Teglected. Mrs. Sutliff would not allow Fim to_enter the house, but spoke to him through a window. Mrs. Sutliff went on the stand and de- nied all the charges. Aileen, she said, used to go into the back yard immedi- ately after breakfast of hér own volition and was never forced to remain there. It was a sunny yard. Some of Aileen’s sis- ters threw Aileen's bread into the ash barrel on one occasion and she picked it out and ate it. The bruises on the child were produced by falls. The witness ad- mitted that she had beaten Afleen when- ever gshe was bad or disobedient, and then only s agyed or spanked her with the bare hand. Mrs. Sutliff denied having told Mrs. Halpin that she doubted that Afleen was her child, use when she was in the maternity hospital at the time Aileen was born several babies were mixed up. The fact of the matter was, she sald, that the babies got mixed up by a green nurse, but the mistake was rectified shortly aft- erward. She denied that she had been other than a kind mother to Afleen and the rest of her children. | i MUNYON'S COLD CURE Wearly everybody seems to be taking Prof, Mum. yon's Cold Cure whenever a cold appears.
