Lyon, avho is returning from service in the Philippines and of whom much has been saild in Bastern papers in reference to his witnessing the “water cure” practiced on Filipinos, is at the Occidental. The doctor served with the Elghteenth Infantry and was present at Igbras when the Filipinos were forced to take water sdministered by American soldiers. The officer takes the stand that the soldiers were perfectly right in the action they took and that he went from Fort Sheri- dan to Washington recently and volun teered to give testimony before the inves- tigating committee from Congress, but that he was not called to the stand. “What I have to say is in favor of the * said the physician. best friends are under investigation and I want to defend them to the best of my wbility. . “I was with a detachment of the Eight- | ! | | “Some of my | eenth Infantry and often had to,act as chaplain as well as doctor. I.and other officers found that the ‘water cure’ was the best way to frighten a Filipino, be cause they are all superstitious and when they get filled with water they are afraid they are going to drown. Now they don’t want to die without making their:confes- sion to a priest and recelving extreme uncton, so when they have taken a few drinks of water they give up and tell all they know. “7 have tried the ‘water cure’ for ex- periment and so have the other officers who were with me. I found that I could take just three pints.’” Dr. Lyon weighs fully 2% pounds and whether he expected a diminutive Fili- pino to contain as much water as himself will probably be lost to history, as he did not express his belief on the subject. “There is no real physical pain in fore- ing a man to drink a limited amount of water,” the doctor continued. ‘““There is, certainly, I must confess, a personal in- convenience—you become very sick at the stomach, but you soon get over this. “I have heard it stated that American soldlers_have made Filipinos drink can- teen after canteen of water. I say I have heged of this, but never have seen it. Wheén I was present I have segn a Filipino take two or three glasses of wa- ter and then he always became frightened and told all he knew.” . Dr: Lyon went on"to explain that those who were treated this way were always matives who had committed some capital crime. He said that he had never seen a Filipino thrown down and gagged and | water forced down his mouth.

PEK 5 HIS THEME It was a case of standing room only | last night,.at the Young Men's Christian Assoclation Auditorium, Mason and Ellis streets, when Gilbert McClurg, secretary of the Colorado Springs Chamber of Com- merce, d his lecture on “Peal, P: aided by 200 stereopticon PIKES _He lectured with but one short interrup- | tion, for two hours and not one minute of it lagged. An enthuslast concerning I Colorado Springs, he made enthusiasts of his listeners and many of the views brought forth much appilause. Beginning from the time when the In- dians swept the plains, he brought his listeners to 1871, when the firgt spike of the Denver Rio Grande was driven into the ground. He told of the energy, of General Palmer, who had been the main- | stay of the railroad from its inception.and the backbone of the movement to creafe |a city. At one minute was seen the | famous Log Cabin. Colorado Springs’ first | eating house; at the next, the handsome | hotels, public buildings and .residences. of the present day city of 30,000 inhabitants. The lecturer told ‘a story of two men meeting at Castle Rock and one said he was going to Colorado Springs. ‘“Don't you do it,” sald the other; ‘‘there’s not a drop of whisky’ to be found in the town and they have six Shakespeare clubs go- ing at the ‘'same time.” A very fine colored view of the spot Wwhere the new sanitarium is about to:be buflt -and to which General Palmer has dorated 100 acres of ground and $50,000 in cash was shown. He gave an interesting account of the Cheyenne Mountain Coun- try Club in the suburbs of Broadmore and showed some fine views of the big game of the_count which so delighted Pres- ident Roosevelt's heart, including bison, deer, mink, elk and bear, and finished the first half of his lecture by showing his audience Helen Hunt's grave under the pine trees, sealed with its funeral pile of red rock. and leading it through Mon- ument Park with its innumerable curious- 1y_formed oillars. During the interval H. J. McCoy; secre- tary of the Y. M. C. A., spoke a few words concerning the good work that tha association had done and told how an- xlous the association was to continue that work im Japan, to which end he would ask the audience to give something. A collection was taken up by the ushers. The second part of I\Ir. McClurg's read- lng‘was taken up with the mining district of Cripple Creek and the beautiful scenery of Manitou, ‘showing colored photographs of the Caves of the Wind and the many waterfalls and streams of that district. The reading abounded with stories -both sad and comlie, TURNS ON THE GAS AFTER TAKING TRIONAL Max Reichert, Long Afflicted With a Painful and Incurable Disease, Kills Himself. Invincible disease, being only a burden to well-meaning relatives, I find sufficlent cause for suicide—for an unmarried man hardly a sin, as with this act he only does good to others while he does not leave other good people sufter. MAX REICHERT. After having written these words in pencil, Max Reichert swallowed a quan- tity of trional and turned on the gas. He was found dead on the floor of the bath room yesterday morning at the residence of his brother, 211 Third avenue. The unfortunate man had been in the tubacco " business in- New York City for several years, but becoming afflicted with spinal complaint, came to this city early last year for the benefit of his health. He had been suffefing great pain recent- ly ‘and had been obliged to take trional to induce sleep. His suicide’ was not a surprise to-his friends. He was 43 years cld and a native of Germany.

DEATH ~ OF A PIONEER Nicholas R. Harris Suc- ‘cumbs to Attack of Apoplexy. Is Fatally Stricken While Walking Along Mont- gomery Street. Nicholas R. Harris, one of the oldest of California’s pioneers and widely known throughout the State, was stricken.with apoplexy shortly after 1 o'clock yester- day afternoon while walking along Mont- gomery street and expired in the arms of his son, who was actompanying him on a business trip. Harris had been in the pest of health and the news of his sudden demise will come as a great shock to his numerous friends. “About eight months ago he suf- fered from a light stroke of apoplexy, but soon recovered. Harris' was born in Boston sixty-six years ago and came to California in the days of the gold excitement. He crossed the plains in 1852 and engaged in mining in the northern part of the State. After a varied experience in the mining camps he settled in San Jose in the early '70's. He was elected Sheriff of Santa Clara County a few years later and served in that capacity for twelve years. While in the Sheriff's office he earned a great repu- tation for himself by .he capture of many notorjous . criminals who infested the State in those days. He was known as a courageous and honest official. Harr{s ‘was one . of the trio-of Sheriffs ‘whose hunting down of Mexican outlaws made them famous all over the country. His two associates were Tom Cunningham of San Joaquin and Harry Morse of Ala- meda. Cunningham died some time 0 and Morse is now the sole survivor of the famous trio who did'so much to rid the State of the criminal element. In 1880 Harris removed to Contra Costa estate. In 1882 he was appointed by Pfesi- dent Cleveland as United States Secret Service Agent and in that office he fur- ther distinguished ~himself by making many notable arrests. It was Harrfs who arrested Howell, the famous counterfeiter, who operated a bogus - money plant near Stockton and circulated the spurious coin all over the country. Harris worked hard to convict Howell, but after three trials Howell was acquitted on a technicality. Harris ‘was always a strong Democrat in polities and when the Republican ad- ministration came into power he was forced to resgin as Secret Service Agent. For the last six years he lead a retired l‘llle, attending only to private business af- ajrs. The deceased leaves a wife and four sons, one of ‘whom is a member of the local police force. The other three sons are engaged in business. The remains were removed to the family residence, 1010 Fillmore street. Harris was a prominent member of the Soclety of California Pioneers and that organiza- tion will probably conduct the funeral.

In making a search of the records of his department Captain Seymour yester- day discovered that Charles Hadley, the missing accountant of the Examiner, who is wanted for the murder of Nora Fuller, was a fugitive from justice when he first came to San Francisco. On May 8, 1889, W. M. Brackett, super- | intendent of police of Minneapolis, caused 1o be issued circulars offering $100 reward for the - apprehension of Charles Start, wanted for embezzlement, and-a copy of this circular as received by the San Francisco department and placed on file. It ‘will be remembered that during the fu+ vestigation. of Hadley's connection with the Fuller case it was discovered that his mother resided in Chicago and her name was Start. The description given in the circular would fit Hadley to a nicety, al- | lowing for the years that have elapsed since he fled from Minneapolls. His ar- rival in. San Francisco tallies with the date of the. circular. The police have no doubt that the embeszler is Hadley, more especially as they have information that confirms’ the: circular. ——— New Captain Makes Capture. The police raided the Baltimore House, 502 Bush street, and arrested eight opium | smokers last night. They were taken to the Hall of Justice, where one of them, Fred Hall, in an endeavor to escape, caused some excitement. He crept up the stairway and gaining the first floor made a dash for the street. He succeeded ‘n getting out of the front door and pushed past the crowd, but. Captain Anderson, who had just'been made a captain by the | Commissionets, followed and captured ! him. . ———— Threatened to Shoot Policeman. Policeman Dave Murphy last night ar- rested Ong Lee Ong, the janiter of a tenement In Chinatown known as the | “Palace Hotel,” because he threatened the | officer with a revolver. Murphy was mak. | ing a tour of the tenement and on open- | ing one of the doors was confronted by the Chinaman, who drew a revolver and threatened to shoot him.

The Board of Supervisors yesterday adopted a resolution providing that a sufficient sum of money be appropriated for the holding of three special elections during the next fiscal year. The first election will be held for the purpose of submitting to a vote of the people the proposition of acquiring the Geary Street Railroad. The second elec- ion 'Is for the purpose of submitting charter amendments including one to pro- vide for the submission of all proposed public improvements at one election. At the third election electors will vote on the bond issue for public utllitles and improvements. Before a vote was taken Supervisor Box- ton asked where the money for the elec- tions was to come from. Braunhart re- plied that he knew of several depart- ments that could stand a in tielr appropriations and the money saved would pay for the elections. Braunhart, as chairman of the Commit- tee on Fublic Utllities, reviewed the his- tory of the proceedings of that commit- tec In preparing for the proposed bond issues for public improvements. He stat- ed that it was the desire of the com- mittee to proceed slowly in the matter on account of the probability of having the issue declared invalid owing to some unforeseen technicality. For that reason not a single step was taken without eon- sulting the legal adviser of the board. Braunhart further said that one of the most important elections would be that of submitting proposed charter amend- ments to a vote. The charter is ambig- uous on the question of whether separ- ate elections shall be held for each pub- lic improvement. City Attorney Lane has advised that this is the safest course. However, one amendment making it pos- sible to submit all propositions to a vote at the same election will be submitted in order to take no chances in proceeding iliegally in the premises, » FINDS FAULT WITH BUDGET. Mission Federation Points Qut Where Saving May Be Effected. The Federation of Mission Improvement Clubs held a special meeting yesterday for the purpose of analyzing the various items in the proposed tax budget as recommended by the Finance Comnfittee of the Board of Supervisors with a view to pointing out where certain expenditures could be lopped off. As a result of the investigation the Kederation decided to submit the following requests to the Board of Supervisors: The engineering bureau fs allowed $00,000, whereas irom the small allowance made for improvements there will be very little en- gineering to be done. The sum allowed for guSinesring should be reduced by at least In view of the fact that there Is very little money allowed the Board of Public Works to expend for repairs and permanent improve- ments the salary allowance s excessive and should be reduced at least one-half. The flgures show that It requires $65,360 for sal- arles and $60,000 for engineering to expend $255, for repairs and improvements on streets, sewers, buildings, etc. The balance of the appropriation is for work done by contract, the Inspection of which is taken out of the varlous avoropriations. e would also request that your honorable board disallow the $43,000 recommended for a new firehouse and use the monmey to erect u school bullding, as the Fire Department s al- ready more than well provided for. Our investization of the allowance for the Board of Health shows that $01,620 is allowed for salaries in the general office and In emer- gency- hospitals and for maintenance $13.200, making a total of $104,500. . We would suggest s anpropriation be reduced so as not to excesd $00.000. o Cafe Zinkand serves a substantial bu Dess men’s lunch. FABER'S WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY, SATURDAY.
