SMITH DIES SUDDENLY IN SAN JOS THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, JANUARY 23, 190Z. San Franciscan Fall s Unconscious After Leaving a Train and Soon Expires. “TABER PAOTO AR AR AN JOSE, Jan. 22—Sydney M. Smith of San Francisco died sud- denly at the broad gauge station this forenoon, shortly after he had alighted from a train from the metropolis. Mr. Smith, accompanied by Mrs. Smith, had come to the city to attend a meeting of the board of directors of the Figprune Cereal Company, in which he is heavily interested. They ar- rived cn the 10:55 o'clock train, and after alighting started across Bassett street to take a First-street car. It was Mrs. Smith’s intention to stop at the St. James Hotel while her husband attended to business affairs. As they were about to board the car Mr. Smith thought of an umbrella he had left on the train. He turned and hastened back, running siowly toward the cars, He had got the umbrella and stepped from the train when he suddenly sank uncon- scious to the platform. The unfortunate man was picked up and carried into Wells-Fargo Express of- fice, where he was ed i a chair. Dr. D. L. Deal of this city was at the sta- tion and attended Mr. Smith. The latter never regained consciousness and death came in a few minutes. Mr. Smith’s demise was due to paraly- sis of the heart. He had been suffering from a weak heart for some time, and the hurried trip after the umbrella was too much exertion and brought on the fatal stroke. Coroner Kell was summoned, but as a physician was present at Mr. Smith's death an inquest was not deemed neces- gary. The body was removed to Wood- row’s undertaking parlors, where it was placed in a casket. At 2:40 o'clock this afterncon the remains, accompanied by the grief-stricken widow, were taken to San Francisco. SRR WAS A CALIFORNIA PIONEER. Sydney M. Smith’s Fortune Made in San Francisco. Sydney M. Smith was born in Boston in | 1842 and came to California before he had reached his’ sixteenth year, arriving at San Francisco in 1857. Soon after his ar- ion with the Cutting Packing Company, one of the largest and most important concerns on the coast, and his connection with the company was ned until severed by his death. 3 g SAN FRANCISCO CAPITALIST TO WH DEATH CAME UNEXPECTEDLY. £ b Going in first as an under clerk, he passed successively by rapid promotion to the positions of head galesman, manager and vice president and finally he became president of the company. Though always giving close attention to the affairs of this concern, in which he laid the foundation of his fortune, he was a stockholder and director in various other enterpr such as the Figprune Cereal Company, the Pacific Vinegar and Pickle Works, the Pacific Sheet Metal Works and Railroad Company in Arizona, of which s elected president on the death of K. Masten some time ago. Mr. Smith was married in I to Miss Greene, a Boston lady, sister of Charles S. Greene of the Oakland Public Library, and a descendant of' General Nathaniel Greene of Revolutionary fame. She, with their three daughters, Mrs. Lonsdale and Misses Helen E. and Bertha J. Smith, survives him. Mr. Smith at one time owned a beau- tiful country home near San Rafael, which he presented to his daughter Ethei on the occasion of her marriage to Lieu- tenant Lonsdale, who lost his life in the Samoan troubles in April, 1899, Mr. Smith was a member of the Bo- hemian Club. Though a public man in one sense of the word, he was a home- loving husband and father, averse to no- toriety of any sort. He took only a quiet part in politics, but on account of his high character and eminent qualifications he was prominently mentioned for the Republican nomination for Mayor in 1900 SOUTHLAND GETS LIGHT SHOWERS Enough Moisture to Lay the Dust in Los Angeles.

Grosh of Del Rio, Tex., an engineer on the South- ern Pacific, arrived in San Diego this af- ternoon and is a guest at the Horton House. He is here to attend the trials of H. R. Hall and Bessie Hall, the alleged diamond thieves. Hall was a night oper- au:lr and station agent of the Santa Fe, and was arrested for looting bagga; at the depot. He and his alleged sister were found to have opened the trunks of Senator Stowell of New York and abstracted $2500 worth of diamonds. Grosh, it {s said, is the husband of Bes- sie Hall, the alleged sister of H. R. Hall, He 1s registered ab the hotel as “E.

SAN JOSE, Jan. 22.—Guests of the St. James Hotel, where the Orpheum Road Company, that played at Victory Theater, stopped, were aroused last might by a tragedy outside the company’s repertoire, Aglos and his wife, the equilibrists, were the principals, while the hotel guests, one of whom was armed with a revolver, made up an enraged audience. : At midnight shrieks from the woman aroused the guests, She and her husband evidently had quarreled; she had tried to escape from the room and he had caught her. Aglos could be heard beating his wife's head against the wall and the room shook with the violence of the blows, It was feared she would be seriously injured. Guests gathered in the hall and demand- ed that Aglos cease beating the woman. One lodger had a revolver and it took his wife and another guest to prevent him breaking in the door to attack Aglos. The hotel clerk ordered Aglos to desist or leave the hotel at once, Aglos could be heard moaning most of the night.

Factions Quarrel After Trial and Bullets Are Ex- pended. BELLEVILLE, Tex., Jan. 22.—Three men were killed, one was fatally wound- ed and three others were slightly wounded in a fight at the railroad station here at 6 o’clock this evening. The dead are: & RAYMOND WHITE, constable at Wal- s. MILAM ODOM, his half-brother. HENRY DIPPERT, a bystander. The fatally wounded man is Walter Pennington, shot through the bowels, the bullet going entirely through the body. The wounded are Elihu Pennington, scalp ‘wound; Antone Dippert of Belleville, a bystander, flesh wolind in the side; John Havkvath of Sealey, a bystander, bullet through foot. The case of Walter Pennington, under indictment for the murder of J. C. Odom, a brother of Milam Odom and a half- brother of Raymond White, was called in the District Court to-day, and a large number of people came here from Wallis at witnesses, among them relatives of J. C. Odom. - There was no outbreak until the parties met at the station, where a large crowd was assembled awaiting the train. Just how the affair started no one seems to know definitely, but it is generally -claim- ed that the first hostile act was committed by the Odom faction. The first person wounded was Walter Pennington. The buMet entered his stom- ach and passed through him. He then opened fire, and in an instant the shooting became general. The two Dipperts were standing together and had no chance to get under cover. Henry was struck by a bullet and dropped dead. Antone’s wound is in the side and it is believed will not Fmve dangerous. Havkvath was shot while trying to get out of range. ‘When the shooting ceased it was found | that White and Odom had been killed. White was dying with his pistol cocked and ready to fire. He and Odom were ly- ing close together. Walter Pennington was carried to the hotel, where he now lies in_a dying condition. His father, Elihu Pennington, was struck only once, the ball plowing through the scalp on the left side of his head.

OAKLAND, Jan. 22.—The management of the Reliance Club announces that both Gilfeather and Snailham have completed tuelr training for their bout for the coast bantam-weight champlonship Friday night and will have no trouble in weigh- ing in under the limit. Both fighters are confident of winning. though realizing that their previous contests show them to be very evenly matched. The recent draw which they fought aroused so much rancor in both camps that each has trained with the utmost care, Gilfeather under the tuition of Jack O'Brien, “Doc” Flynn and Frank Rafael, and Snailham under Alex Greggains. “Kid” McFadaen has been promised a match with the winner upon agreeing to get down to 115 pounds. The second event of the evening is the go between “Doc” Flynn and Toby Ir- win, which was once prevented by the interference of friends at the conference at which the match was arranged. The fight will settle a long-standing grudge between the pair. They will meet at 138 pounds. The two main events will be preceded by a six-round preliminary contest. Kelly & Racing at New Orleans.

OAKLAND RACETRACK—Wedncsday, Jan. 22.—Weather fine. Track muddy. OAKLAND RACETRACK_-Wedncsday, Jan. 22 Weather fine. Track TICX O use the language of the riders, ‘Winnie O'Connor, on Durazzo “handed a bunch” to Mounce, piloting Sylvia Talbot, the 1 to 3 favorite for the two-year-old dash, yesterday at Oakland track. After some deliberation his mount was disqual- ified by the judges, a decision giving gen- eral satisfaction. Not that O’Connor is not just as popular as ever, but it was plainly apparent to all close observers that he had overstepped the limit on this occasion in his eagerness to win. Duraz- %o, a good-looking chestnut colt from Green Morris’ stable, and 10 to I in the ring, struck the stretch second to Alta- wan, with Mounce on the 1 to 3 favorite taking matters quietly in third position. As Mounce set down to ride O’Connor, who had now assumed the lead with the Morris colt, carried Sylvia out and about a furlong from the wire gave her a bump that nearly put the Schreiber filly out of business completely. Durazzo won by a length, but on Mounce's claim of foul was set back to last position. This gave the race to Sylvia Talbot, with Adiron- dack second and Altawan third. More than likely the major portion of the bookmakers did not put in a profit- able day as five favorites came through, all well played. Neither was there any consolation for the *pencilers in the win of Mountebank, for although it was a mild surprise the odds against the out- sider were forced down from 10 to 6. The track was muddy, but not holding. In the Point Arena handicap for three- year-olds, over a mile, the $10, black colt Corrigan, owned by Burns & Water- house, made 'his reappearance. Carrying 110 pounds and well backed at 8 to 5, he was sadly buffeted abouc the first quarter of a mile. Ransch kept him headed for the front and he won at leisure. Milas could not untrack himself in the going, so Commissioner Forster secured - the lace, two lengths ahead of Halmetta. edan retired after displaying a neat turn of speed for half the distance. Frank Phillips’ Moabina took the open- ing sprint for maiden three-year-old fillies, layed from 5 to 2 to 8 to 5 favoritism. ohnny Woods, who had the mount, took the lead turning into the stretch and won easily, five lengths before Jungfrau, the Schreiber entry. Tibs, a 75 to 1 shot, fin- ished third. Mountebank, backed from- 10 down to 5, was cut loose for a good thing in the futurity course sprint with a fleld of ten iolng to the post, and won almost by imself. Light Ball, another well sup- gorted outsider, beat Harry Thatcher out or the place. Foul Play, the heavily played favorite, got away from the post poorly, never showing in a prominent po- sition. As things transpired, Rollick showed to be pounds the best of the four starters in the mile selling event. The Burns & Waterhouse horse, a 9 (o 10 favorite, was slow to get away from the barrier, but experienced little difficulty in getting to the front, defeating Decoy with ease. Wyoming ran third, a head in advance of Herculean. “Plunger”’ Léwis made a mild “killing” over the win of the concluding race by his recent‘rurchase, Pompino. The books laid 4% and 5 to 1 against the gelding, and with See up, he disposed of Redwald and a big bunch of platers without much ef- fort. At post time the winner closed equal favorite with Pat Morrissey. Track Notes. J. Ransch reached the wire first astride two winners. Green Morris need not mourn the loss of one purse, for Durazzo will experience lit- tle difficutly in leaving the maiden class. Rio de Altar, a starter in the last race, fell, injuring himself so badly that it was with difficulty he finally managed to limp back to the Baldwin stable. Ransom escaped with a mud bath.

L e e o e e e S 2 Y TOWN MUST MOYE - OFF RESERVATION Havilab, Kern County, Is on Government Land. BAKERSFIELD, Jan. 22.—Havilah, for- merly the county seat of Kern County and in early days one of the most pros- perous and lively towns in the surround- ing mountain section, is found to be lo- cated within the Government forest re- serve. In consequence the residents of the town will be forced to vacate, unless the. Government authorities are induced to change present conditions. The citi- zens- of Havilah have been notified and steps will be taken to present the matter to Congress. Haviiah first came into prominence in 1866, ‘when gold was discovered there. When Kern County was orgarnized in 1866 Havilah became the county seat and re- mained as such until 1873, when the county seat was moved to Bakersfleld. No title to_the land on which the town was located has ever passed from the | Government, and a recent survey showed that it was within the forest reserve. An investigation was conducted by Forest Superintendent C. 8. Newhall of Fresno. As Kern County, which, prior to 1866, formed portions of Los Angeles and Tu- lare counties, has builded up in various sections, Havilah has . gradually retro- graded and has developed into a place of but little importance. It is now merely a station, with ‘a few residences, a store or two, several saloons and a blacksmith shop. Tven the earliest settlers were not aware that the town was on ground pat- ented by the Government, and as they never dreamed of being disturbed in the possession of their homes no effort has been made to look ‘into the title of the property. WILLIAM INGRAM WILL NOT SUE FOR DIVORCE Former Sacramento Merchant and His Wife Arrive at a Set- tlement. SACRAMENTO, Jan. 22.—Willlam Tn- gram, the former hardware merchant, who disappeared last May and returned | a coupie of weeks ago, has arrived at a | settlement with his wife and will take up | his residence in some city. other than | Sacramento. It was expected that In- | gram would sue his wife for divorce, but this action has been averted by the agree- ment reached to-day. By the terms of this agreement, money on deposit in this city, amounting to $28.- | 000, §s divided equally between husband and wife. Real estate, valued at $5000, in Mrs., Ingram’s name, shall remain with her, and the two shall live apart. One of the two children shall live with the father, the other with the mother. Thus ends one of the stranglst cases recorded in local annals. In May last In- gram left the city penniless. ;or more than elght months his whereabouts re- mained unknown, even to detectives. It is believed that he spent that period as a laborer on some ranch, but he has never given out any statement as to this point. Mr. Ingram, at the time of his disappear- arce, was a member of the firm of Schaw, Ingram & Batcher, wholesale hardware merchants. S N Makes Good the Shortage. SANTA ROSA, Jan. 22.—The United States Fidelity and Guaranty Company to-day paid into the city treasury the amount of the shortage of City Marshal and Tax Collector Charles. H. Holmes, caused by the recent alleged robbery. A draft for $1204.13 was given into the oz gession of City Treasurer Carter. Citv Marshal Holmes was present and money was paid under his protest, in or- der that he and the surety company may receive their rights should the robbery be subsequently proved.

It SAN JOSE HOTELS PUT ON AUTOMOBILE SERVICE Eastern Tourists Will Be Conveyed to Surrounding Points of Interests. SAN JOSE, Jan. 22—The Hotels Ven- dome and St. James of this city have in- stalled an automobile service in connec- tion with their hostelries for the benefit of Eastern tourists. Many Easterners are expected here in the next few*months and the automobile service will undoubtedly prove an attraction to the sight-seers. A short time ago Orlando Stevens, man- ager of the San Jose Automobile’ Com pany, received ‘ten automobiles from the East to be run on routes to Alviso, Los Gatos, Saratoga and other suburban towns. In the number were five immense touring machines, capable of carrying ten passengers each. The hotels have made arrangements with Stevens to use these “mobiles.” The plan is to make up parties of tourists and send them about the coun- try to see the different resorts. A daily trip to Lick Observatory will be made and special visits to Alum Rock Park, Los Gatos, Stanford University and other points’ of interest will be arranged. —_— STOCKTON, Jan. 22.—The body of James Beckett was found a mile and a half this side of Midway, in this county, He had been killed' in a runaway. 1 have devoted my life to the development of viger in both men and women. made a great succe: My methods are approved by lhehsrea!est doctors and o) Pve proved that electric- ity is the basis af all ani- mal life and that “‘weal men,"” dyspeptics, rheumas- ics, sufferers from lost en- v ete., are weak in electricity.
