The board of directors of the Olym- plc and the Corinthian Yacht passed resolutions of sorrow and & rected that beautiful flora! pleces be sent to grace the bier of the departed club- man. Death was due to a cancerous growth in the throat. Two years ago Mr. Finnle was re and blood p: soning set in. A physician was called i mediately and Mr. Finnie apparently wa soon out of danger. A new complication, however, set in and caused him great s fering. A cancer made its appearance and despite the best medical attenda it spread until finally it caused his v timely demise. Deceased had been con- fined to his home for the past three | months. William Finnie was extremely popuiar and had a host of friends, For fifteen years he was a member of the Olvmpic Club and for a long time was identified with its athletics, particularly exceliing at pole-vaulting. He - represented the “winged O’ in many a field day and car- ried the colors of his org#nization to vic- tory. He held the championship of the coast for many years in this event. He not only possessed a sweet tenor voice but was a dancer of high order. He was a familiar figure at the annual out- ings of the Caledonlan and Scottish This- tle clubs and usually carried off prizes for LOVE TRIMPHS OVER THE LAW Woodland Couple Jour- ney to Reno to Be Married. Special Dispatch to The Call. WOODLAND, May 10.—Walter F. Mal- com and Mrs. Emma Watkins, both of this city, journeyed to Reno on Wednes. day night to evade the California law which prohibits marriage for one year after divoree and were there married yes. terday afternoon. These two young people were sweet- hearts in their school days. The mother of the bride, Mrs. E. C. Laugenour, took her to North Caroiina to prevent a union to which she objected. While in North Carolina Miss Laugenour met a young man named W. H. Watkins. After a short courtship they were married and returned to California. So far as the outside world could observe they lived happily together for two years and a half. During that time a daughter was born to them, and if they entertained an opinion that mar- riage was to them a failure they discreet- 1y kept all evidence of it from the public. Last January the young husband sud. denly announced his intention of return- This announce- vaded the Watking home. The fact that Mrs. Watkins accompanied him a part of the way on the journey and that their re- lations appeared to be as cordial and con- fidential as ever apparently gave the lie to these rumors. Early in March Mr. Watkins returned, accompanied by a friend. About the mid- dle of the month M; Watkins filed a suit for divorce, alleging faflure to pro- vide. The suit came on for trial almost immediately. Mr, Watkins was in town, but did not put in an appearance in court. The whole proceeding did not occupy ten minutes. A settlement of property inter- ests was made out of court. The terms were not made public except in so far as they affected the little daughter. The court appointed her father guardian and her mother deeded her a considerable piece of land. It is evident that the ar- rangements for a legal separation were amicable and were agreed upon before the papers in the suit were filed. During all these proceedings the two were almost constantly to:e&her and nobody not in the secret would have suspected that the relations between them were strained. As soon as the divorce was granted Mr. Watkins quietly took his departure for North Carolina without offering a word of explanation. Less than two months thereafter came the sequel to this domes- tic drama in the marriage at Reno.

SAN JOSE, May 10.—Creston de For- rest, the 13-year-old son of the assistant manager of the Hoffman House in New York, is one of the two boys who arrived in Sacramento penniless some weeks ago. They then gave the names of Charlgs and Fred Roberts and said they had been sent by their mother to visit their grandfather. De Forrest, who lived at a place called Willows. The railroad officfals tried in vain to locate such a man and finally sent them here.

The offending | articles, it now appears, were abusive at- | | tacks on King Edward, Cardinal Vaughan | and the address to the King, which, the paper declares, was such as might have been presented to a Legree half a century ago. The article finds consolation in the fact that the presentees were English Catholies, ‘“‘who are repudiated by the | only rga Catholic nation now in ex- | istence; The loyalists represented Eng- land only, and if the Knglish Catholics choose to acknowledge themselves super- stitioud idotators it 18 no fault of ours,” ‘The following a me of the personal ities of, The Irish Peopie which caused the paper's seizure last night: Sharp Words for the King.

LONDON, May 10.—At the conclusion of the session of the House of Commons to- { day John Dillon (Nationalist) moved the 2djournment of the House in order to call attention to the selzure of The Irish Peo- ple. 'Dillon complained that the action | of the authorities was grossly illegal and | asked whether it was due to the attack | on Wyndham, the Chief Secretary for Ire- | 1and, for to the attack on the King. Wynd- | | ham'replied that it was owing to the at- Continuing Dillon sald he was not con- cerned to defend the violence of the at- tack,, but any seizure should have been | done through the courts. Far more vio- lent attacks on Queen Victoria had been made, in the English papers without their being' seized. The present action was a blow at the liberty of the press. Wiltiam Redmond (Nationalist) charac- terized the article complained of ag a very proper and patriotic attack on-the con- duct of the Chief Secretary. Wyndham, in defending the seizure, declined to- “‘soll his lips with reading the attack on the King; which constituted seditlous libel, | nor would he wound the feelings of mil- lions by propagating the outrageous, gross | and scurrillous lies of the article.” The motion for an adjournment was de- feated by a vote of 252 to 64. The morning papers are unanimous in denouncing the scandalons attack of “1' Irish People” upon the King, but serious aoubts are raisea as to tne wisdom of Wyndham's actlon in seizing the paper, | first,, because the seizure was illegal, it | being @ case for prosecution; and second, | because to the delight of the Irish mem- bers it has given world-wide publicity to O'Brien’s hitherto little known paper and will, .the Natlonalists claim, be worth thoudands of dollars to 'them from American sympathizers. Many friends of | the Government consider it would have | been, better had Wyndham ignored the | matter. 1t appears that O'Brien was lving {ll at Mallow and was not responsible for the | 6bjectionable issue. It is understood that the Government has no intention to pros- ecute the paper. RECEPTION IS GIVEN AT THE INFANTS' SHELTER Pleasing Entertainment Given by the Ladies Who Aid the Institution. The rooms of the Little Sisters’ Infant Shelter, which is located at 512 Minna street, were filled with life and color last cvening. It was the occasion of a recep- tion tendered by the charitable ladies who are helping those who try to help them- | gelvgs. The interior was beautifuily dec- | oratéd with flowers and greens, and the commodious yard in which the little ones play while their parents are at work pre- fented a pretty appearance. Chinese ian- | terns, potted piants and festoons or greens acged gayety to the scene. Upstairs in the many rooms of the bulld- ing children slumbered, unmindful of the sweet strains of music that filled the house. The ladies paid frequent visits to these apartments and gazed fondly at the sleeping babies. During the evening an_excellent pro- gramme was rendered. Mrs. Arnold and W. Young sang a duet; the Misses Sherman rendered a number of selections on the violin and piano; Garner Stenhouse seng; Miss Ada Clement played a plano solo, and Mr. Young and Mrs. Arnold ren- | dered a number of pleasing songs. | The Little Sisters’ Infant Shelter was | organized for the purpose of caring for | and instructing little children whose pa- | rents are called from home to work. It | is one of the few institutions of its kind that does not rely on State ald. Accord- | ing to the annual report submitted by the | matron of the institution, two hundred ! and sixty children have been admitted to | the shelter durlng the past year. Of this | number seventy-five became permanent boarders. The officers of the charitable organization are as follows: firesldent, Mrs. C. E. Cooper; vice pres- ident, Mrs. W. D.

S. Chappelle of New York City, better known in San Francisco as “Manny” Chappelle. Four years ago Chappelle left the Pa- cific Coast for the East, determined to win fame and fortune. By sheer deter- mination and strict adherence to busi- ness he returns as a representative man of affairs. There was no more familiar figure in San Francisco a few years ago than “Manny” Chappelle. Then suddenly he dropped from sight, and it was learned that he had sought broader fields. Going to New York, he became assoclated with @ prominent firm of whisky distillers and forged to the front. When James J. Cor- bett decided to start in the saloon busi- ness in Gotham he left the selection of a location to Chappelle, who also attended to the matter of decorations and general plan of the place. Chappelle took charge of the clgar counter at Corbett's piace, dnd his bohemian qualities brought him in contact with the socfal and political leaders of New York City. Success after success followed Chavpelie, and a year ago he was made the agent of a promi- nent champagne firm. _As past grand president of the New 'k Aerfe of the Order of Eagles Chap- will sit in the Grand Aerie. In the meantime he is busily engaged in looking up his old Frisco friends and receiving their congratulations. He is accompanied by his wife and baby. @ ettt oottt > it OLD-TIME LODGE HOST AT AN ENTERTAINMENT Valley No. 30 of the Ancient Order of Workmen Celebrates an Anniversary.

The members of the Street Committee of the Board of Supervisors expressed themselves yesterday as being opposed to Supervisor Reed's proposed ordinance creating a commission on parks and boulevards, waich was referred to the committee for report. Supervisors Con- nor, Dwyer and Curtis stated that they would in all probability recommend the ordinance for indefinite postponement. The ordinance makes it the duty of the commission to suggest tne needs of new squares and boulevards as the develop- ment of the city may demand. The Su- ervisors named think that the present gurk Commission is fully competent to carry out all improvements that may be deemed necessary. They will cer(ainl¥ re- port against the bill unless the Park Commissioners give their consent to the appointment of a new commission as con- templated by the ordinance. — Morphine Causes His Death. The unknown man, who was found un- conscicus in a rooming-house at 174 Jessie street, Thursday, died yesterday in the Recelving Hospital. The police believe the man was a morphine flend and acci- dentally took an overdose of the drug, from the effects of which he died. They are making every effort to establish his identity. NORTHERN COUNTIES CLOSE CITY OFFICE Representative at Headquarters of State Board of Trade Is Re- called. Doubtless the people of all sections of the State will be surprised to learn that the Sacramento Valley Development As- sociation has withdrawn its personal rep- resentative, Mr. Wright, secretary of the association, from San Francisco. The ex- planation is that some of the countles rep- resented last vear in the association have not contributed the amounts for.which they were assessed by the commiitee of the assoclation for the purpose of carry- ing on the work for another year. Nr. with an office :n the main exhibition room in the ferry building, where the products of all the countles now exhibiting are arrayed. Flere Mr. Wright met Eastern visitors and distributed literature and im- parted knowledge personally to all in- quirers concerning any particular section which seemed to them to be adapted to their uses and needs. It is possible that the discontinuance of the work in this city by the Sacramento | Valley Development Association is only temporary. If the counties contribute the sums assessed very likely rangement will be resumed with the State Board of Trade. ——— ‘Will Not Pay the Bill. The local Board of Health vesterday re- ceived a bill of $22625 incurred by the State Board of Health in clearing off the lot on Pacific street, near Dupont. The work was done by Contractor James . O'Brien, who employed from three to nine teams for six days to remove the refuse on the lot. The local board will rcpudiate the bill on the ground that no agreement was, ever made to have the work done. —_—tee—— Severely Burned About the Face. Miss Carrol Crouse, the well-known singer, was severely burned about the face vesterday morning. A lighted coal oil stove set fire to the kitchen of her home at 610 Fols6m street. She ran into the room to save some valuable papers | and the flames struck her in the face. The fire was quickly extinguished and the papers recovered by Captain Comstock of the fire patrol. e Permit for Boxing Exhibition.
