The ilustration on the side dives yow a perfect view of it. The breadth of the shoulders is what imparts that smart air; the deneral det-up of the coat is smart and fash- ionable. To sum it up, it’s an'idealistic smdrt winter darment, and made jfrom ~the finest dgrade of that soft, yet durable Llama Thibet, an imported fabric, and right smart and intend- ed for high-class over- coatings; the sleeve lin- inds are of satin, a lux- uriows darment as a whole. In a pretty shade of Black Oxford, Bluish Gray Oxford and Brownish Oxford; these are the three smart shades for this winter. This Garment will be on sale in our Overcoat Room, second floor, Mon- day morning. A Clean-Cut, Refined Overcoat Fashion, at $15.00 It's the Peer of Any Overcoat Shown in This Southern Pacific and Detective Ryan of the local police were detailed on the case. They discovered that Erdmann had_sold quantities of brass to a foundry on Beale street, and Lewin engaged a room in a lcdging house opposite and awaited devel- opments. Thursday evening Lewin saw rdmann enter the foundry with a sack- ful of brass and placed him under arrest after a struggle. Lewin recovered 180 pounds of brass from the foundry which Erdmann had stolen and sold. Erdmann some years ago was employed by the Southern Pacific Company. He has invented a patent switch and it was to get money to perfect the patent that he robbed the railroad company. He is about 40 years of age. Barber Victim of Strikers. Frank Murphy, a peaceable barber, who conducts a shop at Third and Minna Streets, was brutally beaten last night by men who, he alleges, were strikers. Murphy was at the corner of Third and Howard streets when several men asked him if he was a union man. He sald he was, and then they asked him what he did. Before Murphy could reply he was knocked down and so badly injured by his assailants t he had to be taken to the Emergency Hospital.

Nowhere e\se such intricate wind- ings, such marvelous scope of land and sea and smiling towns!” Tamalpais on a clear day affords such beauties in scenie changes as no other mountain offers, and vet the rallway which makes the trip pos- sible is but indifferently palronixes, ex- cept by tourists.

A meeting of the Pacific Coast board of directors of the Denver Jewish National Hospital for Consumptives was held yes- terday afternoon at the. residence of Judge M. C. Sloss. ’rhfk, meeting was called for the purpose of arranging a re- ception to Mrs. Plsko, fleld secretary of the association. Mrs. Pisko Is also a noted woman ‘{n other branches of charitable work throughout the United 'States. Those present at the meeting were Judge Sloss, chairman; Rabbi Nieto, secretary; P. N. Ardnson, Bert Hecht, Ben Schloss, Jacob Greenebaum and Mrs. M. C. Sloss. Mrs. Pisko has been actively engaged in promoting the interests of the hospital since its foundation. Within the last two years 250 patients have been treated and, | although entirely supported by Jewish money, 10 per cent of ‘the patients have | been professing Christians. = The hospital has been especially designed to assist the poor. No fees are demanded and no money can be accepted for treatment. No canvass of San Francisco or the Pa- cific Coast has vet been made, but the mere knowledge of these facts has in- duced the benevolent Jews of this city to forward voluntary contributions to the | local secretary, who has already received | about $2500 from varlous sources. Each | mail brings contributions, and it is esti- | mated that San Francisco will subscribe about $10,000 to this humanitarian work. The date and place of the public recep- | tion will be announced through the press. _—————————— WILLIAM H. WEST LOSES i A VERY VALUABLE HORSE —_— !
