BRITISH SHIP GLAUCUS LOSES MAN OVERBOARD IN MIDOCEAN Boat Is Manned and Lowered in Seven Minutes, but Crew Fails VARIED BILLS AT THEATERS STRANDED MEN APPEAL FOR D to Save Life of the Unfortunate-—Curacao Arrives From|Thanksgiving Matinees s°h°°n°rL°ng ' Passen- Mexican Ports——-Schooner Alexander Fails to Reach Fort Bragg THE SEASON. BRITISH SHIP GLAUCUS, WHICH ARRIVED FROM ANTWERP YESTERDAY, MAKING THE BEST TIME OF SHE MADE THE RUN IN 1209 DAYS, AND HER CAPTAIN SAYS HE WOULD HAVE BROK- EN THE RECORD HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR THE FOG. ek MONG the vessels arriving yester- day- were the Pacific Coast Steamship Company’s Curacao from Mexican ports, the schoon- er Alexander, that left here on the 12th inst. for Fort Bragg, and the British ship Glaucus, from Antwerp. The latter made almost a record run, covering the distance in 129 days. This is the best run of the season, beaten in years. The Glaucus had an uheventful run, save for the loss of one of the crew. The aceéident occurred on July 31, last, when | the ship was in latitude 40 degrees north, longituds 15 degrees west. L. Eriksen fell overboard and, in spite of every ef- fort to save him, he was drowned. The ship was hove to and a boat lowered in seven minutes, but when it reached the spot where the man was last seen all that was left was his hat and a few bub- bles. He had gone down just as help Was at_hand. The Glaucus comes into port in first- class tri fter discharging will load wheat for Europe. 22— Mexican Mail Boat Arrives. The Curacao arrived from - Mexican ports last night. She did mnot bring a large passenger list, but among her cargo was a lot of concentrates and bullion, valued at more than a quarter of a mil~ lion dollars. Those who came up on the vessel were: Mrs. C. H. Ramirez, Miles E. Stratton, F. W. Albrighton, Carlos 8. de la Toba, Carmen Jofre, Adelaida Jofre, Antonio Perez, Francisco Arias and two children, Estefa Bustamante, Asencion Davis and three children, and Ramon Miramontes. The Curacao left the TUnited States trajning ship Alert in Magdalena Bay. She was to leave that port for La Paz on December 1. She will coal st the lat- ter place and then proceed to San Diego, arrivink about December 18. + The Alexander Is Safe. The four-masted schooner Alexander, which was off port Tuesday night, salled in yesterday. She left here in tow of the steam schooner National City for Fort Bragg, and when off hergefltinauon was anchored because there Wwas not enough room in the harbor for her. The National Cify went in and lcaded, but during the night a gale came up and the Alexander had to slip her anchor and put to sea. Captain Zahn says he was driven away off shore and then beat his way back, but as there was no tug to help him he could not make his way into the harbor at Fort Bragg, He accordingly stood away for San Francisco and made port vesterday mogning. At no time was the schooner in any danger, and she is now getting ready to make a second attempt to reach Fort Bragg in tow of the Na- tional City. Both vesels will sail to- morrow. LI Accident on Ocean Wave. The Santa Fe's ferry steamer Ocean Wave will have to be laid up for . repairs. On the 8 a m. trip yesterday one of the cylinder heads blew out and one of the deck hands was slightly scalded by the escap- ing steam. The vessel's engines were rendered useless, but the tug Reliance towed her to and from Point Richmond during the day, so that there was no de- lay. and no inconvenience. To-day the Am.‘\lur will take up the running unfil the Ocean Wave is repaired. Water Front Notes. The Harbor Commissioners held a short session yesterday and awarded the con- tract to Healy, Tibbitts & Co. for the re- piling and repairing of the north side of Tolsom street wharf No. 2. The firm's bid was $2685. Bids for constructing a shed over Union street wharf will be opened December 11 Edward Brown asserts that he was robbed on the water front Tuesday night. Two men, €0 he says, knocked him down and rified his pockets of $7. He reported the occurrence to Officers McCormack and Dower, but as he was under the in- fluence of liquor not much credence was placed in his story. The police are inves- tigating the matter, however. Reinsurance on the bark Prince Albert was advanced-to 40 per cent yesterday. The tug Monarch picked up a two and one-half ton anchor off Black Point yes- terday. It had been located by some wreckers and is deemed a good find. * NEWS OF THE OCEAN.

Attractions of Merit for De- lectation of Showhouse Patrons. There will be a special holiday matinee at the Columbia Theater this afternoon. ‘William Collier and his fine production of “On the Quiet” will remain at the Colum- bla up to and including Sunday night. The comedy is one of the cleverest ever seen here and the actor is without doubt the leading star in his line of work now before the public. He is exceedingly popu- lar here and his audiences are aiways en- thusiastic. This morning the advance sale for. the comedy semsation, ‘‘The Girl From Maxim’s,” gins. Theater-goers have heard much of this successful Erench farce from the pen of the author of “The Gay Parisians’” and a crowded house will be on hand Monday night to greet Lena Mervile and the other members of the strong -cast appearing.in this amusing work. “The Girl From Maxim's” has to its credit a long and successful run at the Criterion Thea.ler. New York. “The Geisha,’” tha ‘:l‘lvoli's current bill, is the best thing the Pollard children have yet presented. It is staged to admiration; the costumes, imported from Japan, and the mountings being of the most satis- factory sort. The stage manager is a youth of 19, by the way, and his work is .wanderful. Madge Woodson is as usi a favorite in the cast; little Daphne is an- other tiny charmer, and pillie Pollard as Wun Hi. the Chinaman, is as funny as they make them. There will be a matinee to-day and the bill remains the same for next week. & e “Yon Yonson” will be played at a cial Thanksgiving matinee this afternoon at the California, -while to-night there is indication that the biggest crowd of the season will turn out to laugh over this funny ;;llece The new Yon has already ed himself as a great favorite ances he may make during a performance, he is greeted each time with enthusiastio applause. On Sundaflanlght comes “A Stranger in a Strange nd.” This is a clean legifi- mate farce, which does not depend upon French suggestiveness for its success. While the piece teems with good comedy and side-splitting situations there is not a vulgar line nor a suggestion of vulgarity in the entire play. The advance sale opens this morning. e e * “We 'Uns of Tennessee” has found strong favor with Alcazar patrons _this week. The piece is bright, strong and full of interest and thrill and is done to a nicety by the clever meémbers of the Al- cazar company. The cast is excellent and each member has that to do which he can best do. Charles Bryant in particular shines and Miss Jullet Crosby is another favorite of the cast. Next week ‘“An Enemy of the King” will hold down the boards. “We 'Uns of Tennessee” will have a matinee pertom{a.nce this after- noon. S A matinee performs,nce will be given at the Central ’I'helter.no-daf' with “Sibera,” the thrilling Russfan melodrama, as the bill of fare. The scenic appointments of “‘Siberia’” are excePtionally good and there are clever mechanical and electrical fea- tures that add considerably to the illusion. The drama is well cast and well acted and is pleasing the Central clientele. Nelt week the famous old melodrama, ‘“The Streets of New: York % wfll be put ot A “ladies’ bricklawing contest,” a bl ‘vaudeville bill and Harry Harmon's Hg diving are the special attractions at the Chutes and Zoo to~dfly. e ‘The openin; uf the Minnle Seligman season at the Grand Opera-house, an- nounced for next Monday evening, has been postponed.

City Attorney Lane filed an opinion yes- terday with the Police Commissioners ad- vising that he knows of no ground what- ever upon which permission could at this time be given to an ex-officer to with- draw a resignation accepted by their pre- decessors in office. e says a member of the force upon presenting his resigna- tion, and ‘the same being accepted, ceases to be a member of the depar'.ment and the Police Board has no power to annul 1ncceptance or permit the withdrawal of the resignation, which would be tanta- mount to reinstatement on the force. There is no question as to the power of their predecessors, to accept a resigna- tion from the department, and such ac- ceptance must be regarded as final, — e Christmas number of Sunset Magazine now out.

The Board of Works recommended yes- terday to the Supervisors that no exami- nation or license be required of the ope- rators of any class of automobiles. ’Fhe board takes the stand that in examining and licensing the operators the city, in a mnreasure, would take upon itself the responsibility of insuring the fitness of the licensee, thereby rendering itself to a certain extent responsible for his or her |/ conduct; while placing an operator on the same basis any driver puts such responsibility where it belongs and makes the operator more careful, both of his vehicle and of the safety of others.

Nov. 27.—Advices from thd north bring news that the long overdue schooner Ealph J. Long from Nome lies stranded at Unalaska with 115 passen- gers. The vessel's .arders are empty and the passengers have spent all their money to obtain the absolute necessities of life, and they now appeal for help to the War Department. L. Frank Brown, a lawyer of this city, presented a resolution to the Seattle Chamber of Commerce to-day, giving the facts in the case and urging the necessity for immediate aid for the unfortunate passengers and crew. The members of the chamber were unanimously in favor of acting at once and a request will be made to the authorities in Washington, ‘asking them to send a revenue cutter or some Government vessel to bring down the starving people. The Long lies at Unalaska witiout stores and the ‘pusen ers and crew are practically_ pennil le vessel reached nor water abourd. Since that time the conditions have grown from bad to worse. The storekeepers at that point refuse to advance enough provisions to allow the schooner to reach Puget Sound, and tha passengers are afraid to venture out in a helpless condition.

NO GREASE OR DANGEROUS DRUGS In “Herpicide” the New Seientific and Successful Dandruff atment. Have you dandruff? Then you have a contaglous parasite disease, unpleas- Kant unhealthy and one that will event- ally lead to baldness. To cure it you must destroy the parasite that eats at the root of the hair. The only pre%an.- tion for destroying these germs is New- bro’s Herpicide. Charles Klein of Lar- amie, Wyo., says: ‘“‘Herpicide allayed the itching, cured the dandruff and stopped my hair’s falling out; and it is bringing & new crop of hair.” Herpicide is free from grease or dangerous drugs, and makes hair glossy and soft as silk.
