PR Holds Up Two Men a Week [f[Ago and One of Them Knew Him Personally. FEA RS T The masked robber who has been ope- rating on the Barbary Coast has been ar- rested through the persistence and | shrewdness of Detective McMahon and | Riordan. He is Eugene Cazneau, an ex- | conviet, and he is now in the City Prison with charges of robbery against him. | The detectives, after working on the case | for a few days, were satisfied that Cazneau | was the robber about whom complaints | had been made and copies of his photo- | graph from the “Rogues’ Gallery” were circulated throughout the State. as they had ascertained that he had left the city. Cazneau formerly worked in the sugar re- finery at Crockett and Constable Moiles | discovered him there yvesterday morning and brought him to the city. Charles Romano. a barber, living at 744 Broadway, had almost reached his home shortly, after midnight last Saturday, | when ‘a8 man with a mask over his_face pointed a revolver at him and ordered him to throw up his hands. While the robber was trylng to extract Romano's watch from his pocket Romano grappled | with him and grabbed hold of the revol- ver, his forefinger getting behind the | hammer. The robber tried twice to fire, but each time the hammer fell upon Ro- mano's finger and the weapon did not ex- plode. During the struggle the robber’s | mask fell off and Romano recognized Caz- neau, who finally succeeded in breaking from Romano, leaving behind his which was later found by Police- man Peshon. Romano -again identified Casneau in the prison yesterday after- noen. A peculiarity of the hold-up was that Cazneau got a friend who lives on Filbert street to borrow Romano’s revol- ver on the day previous, so that his in- tended victim would bé unarmed. Cazneau is also supposed to have held |up and robbed Frank Demartini about | half past 10 o’clock a week ago Saturday night in the same locality. On that occa- sion he did not wear the mask, as De- | martini did not know him. Cazneau was sentenced to four years in San Quentin August 20, 18%, for burglary, for having entered the residence 1417 Du- pont street. He belongs to a respectable family, his grandfather having been a dis- ed soldier. ? | morning on “The Helight of Christian Ex- perience.” The oratorio of “St Paul” by Mendels- sohn will be supg at the First Presbyte- | rtian Church to-night by an augmented choir.

Samuel Shak, a machinist lving at { Fifth and Natoma streets, was treated at the City and County Hospital last night for a disjointed shoulder received by be- ing struck by car 1090 of the Howard- | street line at the crossing of Eighteenth and Howard streets. Shak was dragged quite a distance before the car stopped. As he is 60 years of age his injurfes may | prove serious. —_——— Wants to See Colzgosz Die. Conrad Bucher, a laborer, demanded at the office of the Chief of Police yesterday | a permit to see Czolgosz, the murderer of | President McKinley, executed. As Bucher | Was insane he was locked up. MERE CHILD STARTLES WORLD OF MUSIC WITH HER RECITALS Alma Stencel, a California Girl 14 Years of Age, Plays Before Crowned Heads, Critics and Impresarios and Is Accorded Highest Honors After Professional Appearances in Europe she has won the admiration of crowned heads, musical critics and famous impre- sarios. The following cablegram from Berlin was received here yesterday: Alma Stencel, the 14-year-old California pian- ist, a pupil of Hugo Mansfeldt, gave an or- chestral recital here tonight which proved a sénsationnl success. Six years ago Alma Stencel's musical education was begun. Her first public ap- pearance ‘'was made at the age of 10. In the spring of 1900 she gave eleven recitals in California and New York. Her success in Europe has been phenomenal. In January of last season Jan Kubelik gave a recital in Vienna, and on this pro- gramme appeared the announcement that he would be assisted by Alma Stencel from America. At the conclusion of the concert Impresario Dunkel of Budapest arranged for an early appearance of the little pianist in Budapest with the Phil- harmonic Orchestra. On the same even- ing Kubelik’s manager, Alexander Rose, secured Alma’s co-operation for Kubelik's seventh concert in Vienna, to be given two weeks later. The morning following her debut in Vienna the newspapers praised the musical feeling, power, intel- ligence and delicacy, and almost flawless technique of the young artist. In Buda- pest her success became an ovation and it was with difficulty that she was finally allowed to retire from the stage. Return- ing to Vienna she appeared there twice. On the last occasion the imperial family occupied their box and manifested great pleasure in the performance of this little prodigy. : At the conclusion of the concert her im- perial Highness, Maria Yosefa, accom- panied by her son, the heir apparent, came to Alma’s room to compliment her personally. After this her services were eagerly solicited by Vienna's most ex- clusive circles, but not many engagements were accepted, as Alma's mother soon brought the little girl to Berlin, where she has since pursued.a course of uninter- rupted study under Hugo Mansfeldt, her former teacher. INDICTMENT AGAINST DIMMICK IS QUASHED The Charge of Stealing $30,000 Must Be Handled by the Next Grand Jury. The matter of the larceny of $30,000 from the Mint must be presented to the Federal Grand Jury to be impaneled next month. United States District Judge de Haven handed down an oral opinion yesterday quashing the indictment charging Walter N. Dimmick with the theft of that sum, the court remarking thatsprobably an er- ror had béen committed in sending the case back to the same Grand Jury after the preceding indictment had been strick- en_out The first indictment was dismissed on account of informality, and a new indict- ment was presented by the same jurors, without having taken any additional or Collins, the defendant’s attorney. the contention that the jurors were biased and prejudiced, they having found a true bill of indictment upon no testimony at all.

McWilliams, president of the Siebe Shoe Company, and one of the can- didates for Supervisor on the Republican ticket, received vesterday the sad news of the death of his father, which occurred the day before in Hongkong, where he went some months ago in search of health.

His first experience was gained in driving TASE OF DENT Autopsy on the Body ot Late Capitalist Martel. —— Is Stricken While Bathing at Orystal Salt Water Baths. An autopsy performed yesterday under the direction of Coromer Leland made known the affliction that brought death to James L. Martel, the well-known capital- ist and pioneer, while he bathed at the Crystal Salt Water Baths, Friday after- Ipoon. Martel’s heart, it was found, had been in an extremely weak condition. He was undoubtedly stricken when he got into the tub of hot water and died im- mediately or lost so much strength as to be unable to prevent himself from drown- ing. "fartel was one of the oldest and most nr:fe“ed citizens of San Francisco. He lved on the coast from New Orleans in 1846. He joined the American navy shortly after his arrival and was assigned to the sloop Dale. Later he was made purser's clerk on_the storeship South- ampton. In December, 1846, he was placed in charge of stores in the Mexican cam-~ pall and at the time of his death was one of the few veterans of that war. Martel retired from active business eleven years ago, after having amassed a fortune through his business in ity and sterling worth. He held the position of Inspector of Customs under three dif- terent Port Collectors—Harrison, Collyer and Thomas Butler King. He wch.god a tract of land near Mountain View and since has lived a retired life with his family. His domestic life was exemplary.

There was a “roof garden” party at the Concordia Club last evening, and a very fashionable gathering was present. The hall was beautifully decorated in pink and green, with subdued light. The pro- gramme included many of the greatest of the Orpheum and Tivoll performers. Mon-~ Toe, Mack and Laurence presented their Clever one-act comedy entitled “How to Get Rid of Your Mother-in-law,” Signor Gaudenzio Salassa of the Tivoll sang two solos from ‘“Bohemia,” Tommy Baker, the monologist, told a lot of stories and sang 2 few songs, as_did the “Beaux and Belles” octet. The orchestra, under the direction of E. M. Rosner of the Orpheum, helped to make the party, which was con- ducted in the approved roof garden style, decided’ suecess. 2 he regular orchestra was under the di- ection of Leo Bruck. At midnight the Enor was cleared and dancing enjoyed. — || ported shoes were largely sold in this country. Only in Europe are Sor caused a trade riot. The local shoe-makers, 600 strong, appealed to the government officials for protection, claiming that the Sorosis Company with their improved methods could manufacture shoes 30 per cent cheaper and of much superior style than they were able to produce. They even went so far as to threa‘en to mob the store should one be opened. The cables were full of the incident at the time it occurred, but the newspapers, with that liberality which has ever been their most | distinguishing trait, very carefully avoided all reference to Sorosis, for | fear of giving them a little advertising free of charge. justed Boys’ Before their perfection im- l Now the most eagerly I || sought for footwear in foreign cities is Sorosis, at a large advance in || price over what you are privileged to buy them at in this country.
