10 CHILD BLINDED BY YOUNG FIENDS Five- Yea.r -0ld Cecelio Blanco Loses Sight of One Eye. ——— Four Youthful Desperadoes Throw Lime Into His Face and Rob Him. R PR Cecelio Blanco, a 5-year-old son of Jose Blanco, a Mexican laborer, had the sight of one and probably both of his eyes de- stroyed yesterday afternoon by the flendish act of four boys, the oldest of whom 18 but § years of age. | The parents of the lttle sufferer reside at 9 Virginia place, near the corner of Broadway and Powell street. During the afternoon Mrs. Blanco sent the child to a nelghboring grocery store to make a small purchase. The little fel- low had just turned the corner of the street when he was accosted by the four boys. Without a word of warning one of them struck him full in the face with a paper filled with lime that had been taken rom a kiln close by, where a bullding is in the course of construction, Taking a strong hold about his victim's neck and still keeping the package of lime plas- tered over the child's eyes, the boy held him captive while the others of his gang searched him. ¥Finding in one of his ockets the nickel which had been given ’ im by his mother, the infant desperadoes seemed to have accomplished their pur- pose of robbery and ran away from the roene Some of the nelghbors witnessed the as- gault, but thought at first it was in play, but when they saw the little fellow grop- ing wildly about and heard his piteous eries for help some of them went to his aid. At first they were loth to belleve that the young fiends had accomplishde such a terrible injury, but an examination told too plainly that the sight of one of the little fellow's eyes was completely de- stroyed The ohild was taken to Dr, Von der Leith's drug store, where he was treated, and m there he was sent to the Central Imergency MHospital, Mre, Blanco went with him in the ambulance. 8he is in & dellcate condition and the excitement, it is_thought, will have a serlous effect Dr, Armistead did what he could at the hospital to ease the suffering of the child, Je sald that the sight of the right eye is entirely destroyed and that the other eye may become similarly effected through symputhy he lime, was W molst of the eye. The case was n*smflml to the police and ective Tom Coleman arrested Joe Nu- aged 8, Louls Robles, aged 8, and Emil Arata, aged 8 years, and held them at the City Prison. The father of the vietim related at the hospital that on Sun- day last the same boys assaulted his child at church and that the little fellow still has & lacerated scalp wound in evidence of that fact he sald, had slacked when it od by coming in contact with the PROMINENT DRUGGIST IS CLAIMED BY DEATH W.

THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, MAY 27, CHINATMAN SERIOUSLY INJURED BY A MYSTERIOUS EXPLOSION Dynamite or Giant Powder in Unoccupied Room in Stockton-Street Lodging-House Tears to Shreds the Foot of Porter Who ‘Is Cleaning Up in CAUSEDBY ExPLOSION, [ Y— H KI, a Chinese porter, had his left foot torn to shreds yesterday afternoon by a mysterious explo- slon in Chinatown, What ex- ploded {s not known, but the character of the damage done leads to the supposition that it was a glant powder eAp. The explosion occurred In a little room on the top floor of the four-story bullding at 70 Stockton street, corner of Bacra- mento, known an “The Castle” A hole was torn in the flopr and the celling of the room beneath, but no other damage was done to the contents of the room Ah Ki I8 a nephew of Wing Hing, & prosperous Chivaman, who conducts & woodyard around the corner from the lodging-houss, on Sacramento stroet, and who {8 the landlord of numerous other Chinese rookeries, Ah Ki was directed to clean up & room, 48, on the top floor of the old bullding in anticipation of a visit of the “white devil” health inspectors, and {t was while he was engaged in that task that the accident occurred, The injured Chinaman is not able to give an ldem of the immediate cause of Anticipation of Visit CURRED, — the explosion, His foot was torn by the force beneat evidently f an explosion directly it, and a sharply defined hole 18 torn in the floor. Apparently some such explosive as a giant powder cap lay upon CHINDEE PORTER WHO HAD HIS FOOT BLOWN OFF AND THE SMALL ROOM AT THE TOP OF "THE CASTLE" WHERE THRE EXPLOSION OC- of Health Inspectors the floor, and Ah Ki stepped upon it with his heavy brogan, causing it to explode. The room was formerly occupled by Lee You, a brother of Wing {-nnx. ‘who among other things had formerly been a miner. Later he had dabbled in gmduce in China- town, and a year ago he died, a falrly well-to-do man. The room has' not' been occupled eince and everything in it is dusty and neglected. The explosive either was lying upon the floor or was knocked off a table or shelf by the porter. Ah Gin, a chalrmaker, who lives in the room benegth and who was at work when the explogion occurred, was frightened so badly that he was unable to go to Ah Ki's aid. Policeman P. A. Peshon heard the nolse and hastening up the stairs T found the infu man in the hallway, where he had crawled from the room, Ah K1 wan taken to the City Recelving Hos- ital and Dr. Armistead amputated the njured foot. L e e B B B b B e i B R R S ] "PHAOS0" STIRS SLUGGISH BLOOD Henry Miller to Appear in a Play New in This City. Filled with adventure and pulsing with strong, red life, “Phroso” s a play to stir the blood of the sluggish and fill the intrepid with a desire to do things. The big audience at the California felt this last evening, and worked fitself up until when the climax of the strong third act was reached they had the curtain holsted five times to the thundering ac- companiment of a palm-to-palm tattoo. While “Phroso’’ follows closely the Hope novel, to which it owes its title and its life, it tells its own story clearly and concisely, and one need never even have heard of the tale to follow and enjoy the play. Neill gives to “Phroso” the very best the company affords. The play, rich in material, is a beggar in parts, and, though some twenty names ornament the pro- gramme, five characters carry it through the stirring acts to its happy end. Miss Chapman is a delightful Phroso. Now fierce, now tender, one moment de- fiant the next clinging, she invests her port with a splendid humanness. Phroso is a star part, and Miss Chapman does not miss her opportunity to twinkle. In Lord Wheatley Neill has just such a character as he has enjoyed in many of his productions, and he plays it quite as well. Donald Bowles plays Denny, a re- freshing, brave youth who dislikes being referred to as a boy. Frank McVicars, with a magnificent make-up, plays Mou- ank B. Camp is a villainous Constantine, with a magnificent supply of villainy constantly on tap. The play is gorgeously mounted. e ““The Toy Maker” at the Tivoll is still éGrawing fine houses. A special matinee will be given on Decoration day, May 30, and another toy souvenir matines will be given on Saturday next. Every child at- tending the last named performance will be presented with a handsome plaything. R The new people at the Orpheum and the hold-overs presented a fine bill last night. Harry Lee, in his impersonations, pleased the audience. Al Leach and the three MISSION GROCERS 3-DAY SALE! PHONE MISSION 9. Extra Dry Granulated Sugar, 18 Ibs $1 We sell the best only.

He was accompanied by his wife, who explained that her hus- band was a very sick man and that he had been in a sanitarium in Southern California. All went well until early yes- terday morning when Vogel apparently came violently Insane. He attacked his nurse and had almost choked him to death when the people in the adjoining stateroom heard the struggle and reached the scene just in time. Vogel was pulled off his victim and locked up in a spare room. By some means he secured a razor and made an attempt to end his own life by cutting his throat. The wound was not a dangerous one but, but in order to prevent any more such attempts he was put in a straight jacket. Vufe\ is a member of the firm of Vogel & Flint, saloonkeepers, 38 Stockton street, and his home is at 941 Jones streat. When the Queen arrived yesterda%vu. delegation from the order of United Workmen was down to meet him. The members of the delegation offered to care for the sick man but when they heard of his attempt to murder his nurse and then take his own life they decided that the police were the proper people to handle him. Vogel was placed in a cell in the De- tention Hospital, where he imagines he is being pursued by enemies who want to kill him. His wife visited him during the afternoon and came to the conclusion that it will be necessary to have him commit- ted to the asylum. .She will swear to a complaint charging him with insanity this morning.
