Pioneer of Valley Ex- pires Through the Burst- ing of a Blood Vessel. B H. WASHBURN, one of Cali- fornia’s sturdy citizens, a pio- neer and without doubt the Q greatest of all developers of | Yosemite Valley, passed away suddenly and peacefully at a private sani- tarium in this city early yesterday morn- ing. When life left the ola mountaineer's body the State lost one of its grandest | characters—a man who had never inten- | tionally wrought an evil act and who had scarcely any knowledge of the existence | of wrong. Washburn's nominal residence | was San Francisco, but the greater por- | tion of the past half century was spent in | the rugged fastnesses of the beautiful | valley he called his own, surrounded by | the environments of nature that won his adoration in childhood. Those who are left to mourn are by no means -limited to the Golden State. Ce- | lebrities of the world have followed the | | pioneer over the precipitous paths that | led" to splendid scenery, and in taking | théir departure have carried with them a | remembrance: of his fine character. ‘Washburn was born in Vermont sixty- six years ago. He was a stanch Green Mountain boy. In the early fifties he came to the coast and located at Bridge- port, Mariposa Count.y ‘When Galen Clark discovered the Big Tree Grove Washburn entered the Yosemite Valley and at once commenced to prepare roads and foot- ‘ways that would render access to the in- terior easy. He constructed roads from Merced, Madera and Raymond, after hav- ing run a wagon road to Mariposa and a saddle trail to the end of the route. ‘When Charles Crocker, father of Colonel 4id not complete the wagon road he re- plied that he had not funds. Crocker then backed him and he of the valley. burn had done more than any other man in constructing and improving ‘passages, and expended thousands of dollars in .such work. At thé time of his death he had over 400 horses employed in the transportation of tourists, and It is esti- mated that during his lifetime he guided over 75,000 visitors through the paradise that had entranced him in his youth. Among the latter were men of title and of foreign climes. Presidents Hayes, Grant and Garfleld saw the valley under his girection, and only recently several celebrities made the trip with him. ‘Washburn was taken ill one week ago Wednesday. His condition was serious er. xsnounced the malady one of ptomainc pol- soning and prescribed for such. Shortly after 3 o’'clock yesterday morn- ing a blood vessel burst in the patient’s brain and he passed away soon after- ward. He leaves a wife and a daughter, Mrs. Charles Higgins; two grandchildren, Charles H. Higgins Jr. and Henrietta Higgins, and two brothers, B. H. Wash- burn and John W. Washburn. The latter reside at Wawona, The funeral will take place on 'Tuesday from St. Paul's Epis- copal Church. @ il b @ PLANS A GREAT BEACH RESORT New York Man May Pur- chase Santa Cruz Island. SANTA BARBARA, Oct. %.—B. M. Dickinson, a New: York capitalist who has been spending the summer at Catalina, arrived at this place to-day on his private yecht, Lillian. To-morrow with a party of men of this city he will leave for Sznta Cruz Island, one of the Santa Bar- bura channel sroup, with a view of se- lecting a suitable site for a tourists’ ho- tel. If it be found overtures will be made, it is understood, for either the purchase of the entire island or enough for hotel purposes. Santa Cruz Island is thirty miles from Santa Barbara. it is thirty miles long and nine miles wide and has some of the finest marine caves in the United States. The island is at present owned by and cultivated for a San Francisco vineyard syndicate. ————— “I don't see whgl there should be any Among the Parlor Goods A continual disturbance on the parlor furniture floor—rapid selling and the’ arrival of new pieces the The above pictured pieces are built of mahog- anized birch wood and are upholstered with silk damask cause. in pretty floral patterns. arm chair, $11.50; the reception chair, $3.00.
