John McGovern, late manager of the Royal Hawailan Hotel Anpex, Honolulu, died Baturday morning at his residence, 147 Cook street, this city, after a linge ing iliness of four months. Mr. McGovern was one of the best known hotel n on the Pacific Coast and for sixteen years was manager of the Commercial Hotei when that property was the possession of | the Clay Street Bank. He later assumed charge of the New Western Hotel, which post he resigned to go to the “California.” In all positions his ability won recognition from his employers and his genial person- ality made him a host of friends among the patrons. Wor the last two years he was connected with the Royal Hawalian Hotel at Honolulu as chief clerk and later as manager of the Annex at Wakiki. Mr. McGovern was a native of Ireland and came to California when quite young. He was 52 years of age at ae time of his death. He leaves a wife and five children te mourn his loss. Rev.

Eleven Months Lead 1900 by a Margin of First - Magnitude. el AR R The sales of realty in San Francisco during the first eleven months of the present year have amounted to $25,000,000 | in round figures. What the total for the year will be cannot be safely predicted, but the indications are that the present month will make very heavy additions to the record for 1%01. Large transactions are under way at this time which, if they are finally wound up in the next two days, will make a fine record for the month of December, 1901 ‘Without the last month of this year the record for 1901, up to the end of No- vember, leads the total for the entire year of 1900 by $7,000,000 in round figures. What the total for the year would have been if the strikes had not ti place in this city it is difficult to aj ximate. The total quoted justifies amply all the predictions that have been made con- cerning the market for realty during the several past months. At the close of 1901, according to the views of the conservative brokers, the situation is better than it has been for a long time. There will naturally be a luli for a few days while the merchants are taking stock, but this will be only a brief interruption and it may prove to be of inconsiderable effect. Deals of the Week.

Filing of Will Recalls a Fa- mous Naval Court- Martial. The will of Mrs. Harriet J. Vogelman, | the wealthy wife of Dr. D. J. Vogelman, a dentist of Vallejo, was filed for probate yesterday. She leaves her husband $1000, Emily C. Swift, an aunt, $2000, and the residue of her estate, which is located in Vallejo and is worth $200,000, to Albert Wilson Tobin and Helen Marie Tobin, children by a former marriage. Mrs. Vogelman was the sister of G. W. ‘Wilson, president of the Vallejo Commer- clal Bank, which institution was founded in, the early '50's by E. J. Wilson, their fether. Mrs. Vogelman's first husband was the late W. J. Tobin, a pay clerk in the United States navy and one of Val- lejo’'s wealthiest young men. The two children to whom Mrs. Vogelman left her estate are the result of this union. Their married life was an unhappy one and Mrs. Tobin secured a divorce, subsequent- ly marrying Dr. Vogelman. Tobin later married Gracle Plaisted, the well-known actress, who was also a Vallejo girl. His second matrimonial venture was also a failure, for Gracie Plaisted Tobin also sued him for divorce. He then became a clerk in the navy and was very prom- inent through his connection with Pay- master Webster, whose court-martial at Mare Island some few years ago attract- ed great attention. It was brought about through a charge made by Tobin that Webster had charged his mother, the late Mrs. J. F. Tobin, $1000 for his appointment as pay clerk, claiming that the $1000 was a bond required of all pay clerks in the ser- vice. The court-martial lasted several weeks and resulted in Webster’s suspen- sion and reduction in rank. Mrs. Vogelman names her husband and A. Heynemann as executors of her es- tate. | —_— | McKinley Fund' Is Growing. The McKinley monument fund is grow- ing daily.

The price has been raised to $ per thousand. A builder who has been talking to the Los Angeles Herald makes the statement that | the laths have been cornered and are only | procurable at one yard in Los Angeles, ; and that there is a corner forming or shingles and redwood rustic. Concerning | the situation the Los Angeles Herald | ys: Building in Los Angeles has been seriously retarded by a dearth of laths in the local market, and it has been cl that the shortage in this material is due to an attempt | on the part of the lumber dealers to form a combination for the purpose of cornering the market and thereby raising the price of that commodity. For several weeks builders have been unable to secure all the laths needed for the numerous bulldings in course of construc- tion. The number on which interior work has been held back, it is estimated, runs into the hundreds, causing a loss of much time, to lathers and plasterers as well .as other work- men. As to the reason for this shortage th;} o lumber men claim it is due to their inabllfty to procure sufficlent material to supply the hundreds of new structures, while others have stated the belief that it has been caused b' movement to force up prices. formed to control and raise the price of | FIRST REGIMENT HUNNING 00N Mrs. Vogelman Leaves| Numerical Strength of| Organization Is at Low Ebb. Commander of Artillery Bat- talion Wants to Make a Record. There has been another reduction in the numerical strength of the First Infantry Regiment by the discharge of twenty- three men from the service for various causes, such as removal from the city, | good of the service, term expired, five en- listments in the army and one appoint- ment on the police force. This brings the regiment to the lowest point since its re- organization after the return from Ma- nila as the First California. During the past month there were six enlistments. Colonel O'Neil hopes with the advent of the new year, when work will be re- sumed, to create a spirit of enthusiasm that will spur the company commanders to recruit up their companies to within at least 76 per cent of the maximum. There is a report in circulation that one of the companies of the First Infantry Is anxious to withdraw from the regiment and organize as an independent artiliery battery. Those who are said to be'at the head of the movement refuse to discuss the matter at this time. Orders have been issued by Major Bush, commanding the first battalion of artll- lery, to the effect that, commencing Mon- day, January 20, there will be guard mount every Monday at the battaidon armory. The detall for the guard is one lieutenant, one sergeant, one corporal, one musician and seven privates. The following promotions are announced in the battalion: Private Harry W. Mitch- ell of Battery B and Private Franklin H. Locke of Battery A, each to the rank of | corporal; Private John W. Ellery of Bat- tery C has been advanced to musician. Upon recommendation of the command- er of Battery D, Corporal Willlam K. Bush has been reduced to the ranks for neglect of duty, and Corporal Frederick R. Haigh has been reduced at his own re- quest. Twenty-one men have been discharged from the regiment, ten on account of re- moval, eight for good of the service and one each for term expired, dropped and enlisted in the United States navy. The major in reviewing the organiza- tion says: There is every inducement to cause such an increagg: a popular branch of the service, the only aftillery force in the State, fine quarters, new uniforms, a host of friends and a recog- nized appreciation on the part of superior headquarters and the citizens of this city. There Is, therefore, every incentive to make this the banner military organization of the Pacific Coast, not only in numbers, but in dis- cipline and esprit de corps. Every officer and man must assist. No laggards are wanted. A strict and prompt attention to all duties on the part of officers and men is required and will be enforced. ‘““Forward!”” must be the counter- sign for the ngw year. During the vear there will be practice marches, lectures and other entertainments. Holiday ADVERTISEMENTS. Fun and Folly Too much of a good thing!
