Edward Lahore Attempts to Kill Justin La { Grange. - | Justin La Grange, a French laborer, | shot and probably fatally wounded | yesterday afternoon during a quarrel in a saloon at 1341 Fifth avenue, South San Francisco. Edward Lahore, another | Frenchman, was arrestéd soon after the ! affair and charged with the crime. The, accused man admits having shot La| Grange, but claims that he acted in self- defense. Lahore is a foreman in the fertilizing | works of Bayle, Lacoste & Co., at Fifth avenue and M street, South San Fran- cisco, where, until about three weeks ago, La Grange was employed as a laborer. Lahore declares that he was forced to dis- charge La Grange because of his laziness and frequent dfunken spells. Since his; discharge, so the foreman claims, La Grange has made many threats against him and that lately the threats were of such character and so frequent that he feared that his life was in danger. Shortly after 6 o'clock last night La- hore walked into the saloon where the tragedy occurred and was accosted by La. Grange and invited to drink. Lahore says | that he was not pleased with the manner | of the invitation and refused it. After a | few words, La Grange struck him, he de- | clares, and to protect himself he fired twice at his assailant. Both shots took keflecl in the lower part of La Grange's body. The wounded man was.taken to the | City ‘and_ County Hospital, where Dr. Mc- Elroy, after an examination, pronounced | the wounds serfous and probably fatal. | “The wounded man made a statement ] through an interpreter and declared that Lahore had shot him without provocation. | He was in the saloon, he sald, and on | seeing Lahore enter the place invited him | to drink. When Lahore refused he asked | him if he still carried a pistol to use on | him, when, without a word, Lahore shot m.

It was about o'clock when a strong westerly breeze caused boatmen to look to their safety, and all but one of the | sailing parties came through the heavy seas and strong breeze without mishap. Members of the Dolphin Boat Club, who | were at their clubhouse, were startled by | seeing the yacht Gazelle capsic. | he occupants, notwithstanding the fear- | orce of the wind and the heavy sea, ded in clinging to the capsized yacht.

Many People at Park. An unusually large crowd visited the | “hutes yesterday to see Hardy Downing loop the loop” on a bicycle. Downing s | 2 well-known rider, who has just finished | an engagement at Los Angeles. He will do the *loop” every afternoon and even- ing at the Chutes. | The “loop” is composed of an inclined track, long enough to give the wheel the | terrific momentum with which it shoots around the perpendicular circular track. As the time approached for the rider to perform the feat, all eyes were turned upward toward the _starting place. Promptly at 5 o'clock Downing mounted his wheel and started on his flight. Every | one held his breath as the man and wheél | turned a complete somersault ‘inside the | huge wooden wheel. It was all over in | a few seconds and the rider glided castly | up the short track at the base of the “Joop.” There is a slot in the narrow track through which passes a welght at- tached to the bicycle, preventing the wheel from leaving the track if the mo- mentum should be insufficient to keep it on. There was the usual large crowd in the Park yesterday, enjoying Leader Stein- dorff's” collection of musfcal gems. Few people went to the CIliff, there being a cold wind blowing. —_——— BEREAVED MOTHER IS SENT DEAD SON’S MEDAL The Late Private Leahy Received Distinguishing Honor at Hands of the President. Mrs. Mary Leahy of 1028 Treat avenue, this city, has received a medal of honor from the War Department, awarded her son, the late Cornelius J. Leahy, formerly of Company A, Thirty-sixth Infantry Vol- unteers, by request of the President, for most distinguished gallantry in action in | defending and driving off a superior force of insurgents and with the ald of one com- | rade bringing from the field of action two fallen_soldiers, one killed and the other wounded. The particular act for which the late Private Leahy received the distinction of | the medal of honor occurred while he was | on a scout near Porac, Luzon, September 3, 1899. Since that occasioh the brave young seoldier lost his life in an engage- ment at Pilar, Luzon, December 1, 1900. His remains were brought to this city on the last journey of the transport Meade and will be buried to-morrow with mili- tary honors in the National Cemetery, Presidio. ———— Funeral of Robert J. Ferral. Funeral services over the remains of Robert J. Ferral, who died in New York City June 7 last, were held yesterday at the residence of the family, 86 Haight street. There was a large gathering of friends who had known young Ferral when he was a student in this city. After the service the remains were taken for in- terment to Cypress Lawn Cemetery.

FIREBAUGH, THE ATTORNEY g o+ oo o rCe e em | o+ - WELL-KNOWN ATTORNEY ‘WHO DIED YESTERDAY AT l HIS PALO ALTO HOME. H city, died at his home in Palo Alto yesterday morning at 10:20 o’clock. He was born in September,.1843, in Bellefontaine, Ohfo. When he was 12 vears old his parents moved to Craw- ford County, Ill. During the Rebel- lion he desired to join' the army, but on account of his physical condition was not accepted. He then journeyed to Indiana to attend school; thence to Delaware and thence to Ann Arbor, from which latter place he was graduated in the law. Owing to failing health he determined to leave Newton, Ill, where he practiced law, and came to California. Arriving in San Francisco without money he was forced to take a job driving oxen, but the owner of the oxen considered him too light to do the work. His next move was to get aboard ‘‘the boot” of the stage and go to Healdsburg, where he practiced law until 1866, when he returned to San Fran- cisco, since which time he has followed his profession in this city and as far East as Boston. Deceased served one term in the Legis- lature of this State, being a member of the twenty-sixth session. He was a stanch supporter of Senator Stanford at his first election as United States Senator.

One daughter, Blanche, died in 18% at the age of fifteen. Mr. Firebaugh's life had been a contin- ual struggle against {ll health and the trials of a law practice. The funeral will be held under the aus- pices of the Palo Alto Lodge of Masons, of which Mr. Firebaugh was a memb: Services will be held on Tuesday, the 17 instant, at Palo Alto, after which the body will be brought to Cypress Lawn Cemetery on the train leaving Palo Alto at noon and arriving at the cemetery about 12:30 p, m. @ civieieinbdeieisieeme e @ MEMBER OF NOTED LONDON PUBLISHING FIRM IS HERE George Macmillan Says American Authors Are Gaining Favor of the British. George Macmillan, a member of the well known London book publishing firm and one of the proprietors of Macmillan's Ma- gazine, arrived at the Palace vesterdas. Macmillan is accompanied by his wife and daughter and maid and they will remain in the State a week, returning to the East and London by the Canadian Pacific. ‘When questioned as to American books and authors in England, Macmillan said: “The works af certain American authors are being well received by British read- ers. The crisp style of the American writers is what captures the average English reader of fiction. I think the writ- ings of Americans are gradually forcing themselves in upon the English world of letters, so that in a few years the Eng- lish people will be as well acquainted with your writers as you are with ours.

Departing Pilgrims Heartily Pleased With City’s Hospitality. After many days of extraordinary ac- tivity all those who were connected with the Shriner festival of last week took a day off and rested yesterday. The various headquarters at the hotels were closed, and the scenes of festivity and merriment which were so conspicuous therein during the past seven days were sadly lacking. Red fezzes and bebadged Shriners had secreted their parapherna~ lia, and all those who were not seeking repose were making preparations to leave this oasis for the more familiar ones in the far distance. The fires of enthusiasm had burned themselves out, and all that remained was the ashes of satfety and that tired feeling which at- tends the strenuous in all human af- fairs. The headquarters of Al Kadar Temple, at the Lick, where so much melted snow was dispensed during the week, was closed for good and aye yesterday. The Portland Shriners are now on their way north, but the liberality with which they dispensed their so-called ‘‘melted snow from Mount Hood, 9,000 years old,” made them many friends in this city. There is a lurking suspicion in the minds of local Shriners who had the privilege of drinking some of this melted snow that the brethren from Portland had handed out a gold brick, and that the snow had’ received a Bourbon bath before being shipped to San Francisco. It is certain that the effect upon those who drank more than good judgment warranted was identical with that which accompanies a night spent out with the boys. FAREWELLS SPOKEN. The local Shriners were bidding their fellow Shriners farewell yesterday. Hun- dreds of the pilgrims shook the dust of this oasis from their feet and are now Journeying southward and eastward. Im- perial Potentae Akin and a party of twenty-five, not including a dozen or more Shriners of Islam Temple of this city, left on a special train for Los An- geles at 3 o'clock p. m. The party will} arrive at Los Angeles to-morrow, and | until Wednesday will be the guests of | Al Malaikah Temple of the southern city. The imperial special will return here on Thursday and proceed directly to Portland and Seattle, whence, affer two or three days of fraternal visiting, the Nobles will proceed homeward over the northern route. The members of El Jebel Temple of Denver, together with Cook’s band, left for Colorado yesterday morning. The band and drum corps played several live- ly airs as they marched to the fer where a number of local Shriners Lade | them bon voyage. The Nobles of EI| Jebel carried with them the trophy won by them in the prize drill last Thurs- day, and they promised to display it conspicuously on their arrival home. All the members of this temple speak in the highest terms of the hospitality of San Francisco, as was evidenced by their | warm reception and treatment while ini this city. The pllgrims from Lo& Angeles to the number of 100 left for their homes yes- terday morning, and at 3 p. m. 200 more followed them. The scene at Third and Townsend streets was a lively one prior to_the departure of the Shriners. Zuh- rah Nobles from Minneapolis, headed by Captain_Shuey. also left for Los An geles, where they will remain till Wedne: day, when they will return to this city on their way to Portland. After a day spent in that city the Zuhrahites will| 80 to Seattle for a brief stay, and thenee homeward via the northern route. ON THE HOMEWARD WAY. The Nobles of Mecca Temple, who came here on the McGee special, left| Saturday for New York. They were fol- lowed by Rameses Temple of Toronto in the afternoon. Their departure prior to the banquet of Saturday evening was a disappointment to local Shriners, who had counted upon entertaining the New York and Canadian contingent. The ex- planation was made that the Nobles from the sections named were pressed for time, and that business interests rendered their immediate return imperative. Among the Nobles still in the city is Captain J. George Cramer of Damascus Temple, Rochester, N. Y. Captain Cramer is a veteran of the Civil War, he having recruited and commanded Company_ D. One Hundred and Eighth New York Regiment. A pecullar circumstance in connection with his visit here was the meeting with W. W. Ross of Sanborn, Vail & Co., who was a private in hls company, and whom he had not seen nor heard from for forty years. Captain Cramer is a prominent business man of Rochester, and has a nephew living in this city, H. P. Scranton, an employe of Sanboern, Vail Co. The headquarters of the local Shriners in The Call annex was closed yesterday. Secretary Lutz was not to be found, nor were any of the committee in evidence except at the ferries and railroad depot. By to-morrow the events of last week, which interested the entire city, will have become pleasant memories. i Trapper's Oil cures rheumatismand neuralgla. Drugglsts, 50c flask.
