10 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1902. BARELY ESCAPES AN AWFUL DEATH Carpenter Claims Three Men Tried to Burn Him Alive. T. J, Skiffington Relates a Startling Story to Police. SR PR e T. J. Skiffington, & carpenter residing at 261 Sadona street, Ocean View, made a startling statement to the police in which he claims to have nearly met an awful death by being literally roasted alive in the back room of Murphy’s saloon, Ocean View, late last Saturday night. If the man’s statement be true he was made the wvictim of one of the most fiendish crimes that has occurred in this city for many a gay. SN'T it time that the lemon-squeez- ers of society, who believe the world is going to the bad and social life is becoming hopelessly corrupt, should change their minds? Never in the history of San Francisco have so- ciety women been more active in phil- anthropic work than at present. The so- cial season has scarcely begun, yet sev- eral benefits have been given that exceed | in interest the coming-out teas, and a dozen more are being arranged. It is be- coming a common occurrence to drop in for a chat with this girl or that one and | find that it is her day at the free kinder- | garten or for hospital work, or that she is assisting at a sale of some sort to ben- efit her less fortunate sisters. It is good According to Skiffington’s statement, he entered Murphy's saloon at a late hour last Saturday night and after taking 'a drink, ‘seated himself in the back room of the place.

Only last week I heard the names of | some popular girls who have found time | and money to furnish and name one | room each in the California Girls' Train- | ing Home, which is being purchased in Alameda, the present building at 147 Na- | toma street in this city being inadequate. | It is pleasing to note the growing interest | in this enterprise and the modest way in which the generous women managers do | practical work gratis. S| The home was organized eight years ago by a number of charitable women, | one of whom found a girl of 12 years in | court’ charged with vagrancy. It was shown that the mother had compelled the | child to marry a man of 4 vears, from { whom she fled. She was not a subject for | the Magdalen Asylum or orphange, and | this need suggested a home for character building and manual training for girls rescued from bad surroundings. 1 liked the spirit of a woman who wrote | them a check last week, aptly saying that if there were more such homes for young | girls there would be less need of main- taining foundiing asylums, which is very true. Miss Amy Gunn is showing her sympa- thetic interest by announcing that she | will give a tea on December 6 at her home, Green and Devisadero streets, for the benefit of this Girls’ Home. It is certainly a lovely thing for such a busy society girl to do, and she hopes to raise $00 to add to the 36000 which must be raised within four weeks for the last payment on the new building. The sum of $500 may | seem Tike a drop in a bucket, but it is the spirit of helpfulness that counts, and | others will also take it up. Less than a month ago John I. Sabin sent $1000, say- ing in that matter of fact way of his that he did not want to be thanked, as he was only too glad to have the chance. Miss Rena Scott, daughter of George W. Scott, who recently sent $1000 to the girls, is going to give a little tea on next Saturday, the 22d, at her home, assisted by the girls of her fraternity—the Alpha Rho, the proceeds to furnish a room. I have heard that Rafael Weil remits regu- larly. Mrs. Susan J. Locke also sent $1000 and is furnishing a room, as are also her son and daughter. A few others who are fur- | nishing and naming rooms are: Mrs. Emma _G. Wright, Mrs, W, H. Barnes, Mrs. G. W. Percy, Mrs. G. XK. Fitch Mrs. | W. J. Gunn, Mr_and Mrs. L. H. Jacobi, Mrs. | Bertha Coulter, ‘Mrs, D. J. Walker, Mr. Pen- [dleton. Miss Elizabeth Westgate, Mrs. W. A. Bisseli, J. Garrett, C. B, Cheek of Oakland, Mrs. Keliey, Dr. F. L. Smith, Mrs. C. W. Alexander and Mrs, C. J. Okell of Alameda. Fifty rooms are to be furnished, as there are already 40 girls, but I cannot begin to tell it all now. + s s How did the women at the California Club’s Oriental symposium manage to look so well Saturday evening after so much hard work for the affair? Mrs. Richard Mulcahy was one of the best gowned women present. She wore a black-dotted net over pink taffeta, with a transparent yoke of pink tucked chiffon. Insertions of jet sequin trimming and white lace medallions applique gave the true Parisian touch to the gown. A sin- gle diarfond ornament was worn. A black picture hat and a white coat completed | i | | [ | | | { \ A DRUNKEN MAN Charles Rice Is Chased Several Blocks and Captured. Two men were observed robbing a drunken man on Market street, in front of No. 803, by Policeman P. J. Mitchell shortly after 3 o'clock yesterday morn- ing. When they saw the officer they ran up Ellis street, pursued by Mitchell, who kept blowing his whistle. They ran through the Baldwin Annex to Market | street, thence to Powell, where they sep- arated, one continuing his course along Market and the other running along Powell to Ellis and down Anne lane to Eddy, where he was stopped by Police- man W. W. Wilson. e arrested man gave his name as Cirles Rice and was taken to the City Prison, where he was booked on a charge of robbery. When searched at the prison a picklock was found in his pocket, and an additional charge of having burglar's tools in his possession was booked against him. He gave his occupation as a broom- maker, but declined to say where he lived. When the officers returned to the scene of the alleged robbery the drunken man had disappeared, but every effort will be made to find him so that he can swear to a complaint against Rice. Nicholas Gomes, 81 Jackson street, re- ported to Policeman M. F. Joy Saturday | night that he had been robbed of his gold { watch and chain and coin of the value o 3106 in the Wisconsin saloon, Pacific and Montgomery streets. He said he had been drinking and entered the saloon about 1 o'clock yesterday morning. He had one drink there and almost imme- diately went to sleep on a chair. When he awoke some hours later one of the pockets of his trousers had been cut out and his watch and chain and money were gone. Hugh McCreedie, an engineer, living at 142 Perry street, reported to the police Thursday night that he and his friend, Sven Anderson, had been assaulted by three men.at Second and Mission streets and he had been robbed of $255. Detective Harry Braig was detalled on the case, but reported yesterday that he had been unable to find McCreedie, who had been on a debauch since the alleged robbery. From his investigations Braig said he had reason to doubt the truth of Mec- Creedie’s story. When McCreedie was taken to the Southern police station and searched his gold watch and chain were found in his vest pocket and there was money in every pocket of his clothing.

The coat of white cloth had broad revers and collar and cuffs of er- mine, and so richly was it trimmed that the effect was entirely fine. Mme. Emilia Tojetti was radiant and charming in a handsome French gray gown with white stripes. The garniture was Venetian point lace and blue panne velvet. Panels of tucked mousseline de soie were set in, surrounded with-black and white passementerie, which gave it good style. Mme. Tojetti also wore dia- mond ornaments and an aigrette in her dark hair. Mrs. Brandt wore a lovely gown of ecru silk, rich drawn work and embroideries. There were such loads of lovely gowns and, very happily, the wearers were per- mitted to wear their hats during the play, and this is very comforting to women for reasons best known to ourselves. . e . ‘The gift sale for the little tots closed gloriously, and the San Francisco Nur- sery for Homeless Children will have about $1500 for running expenses.

H. Bancroft, president of the Ore- gon Short Line, arrived at.the Palace yesterday. His headquarters are at Salt Lake City, and he says that his trip to the coast is partly for pleasure and part- ly for business. To-day he wilk hold a conference with Assistant to the Presi- dent Julius Kruttschnitt of the South- ern Pacific Company. In an interview yesterday he said: . “The report that President Harriman has sold 200 miles of the track out from Salt Lake to Senator Clark is untrue. President Harriman has not abandoned the plan of bullding a road from Salt Lake to Los Angeles, and work is now being pushed on this new road. The sur- veys have all been made, but when the road will be completed it is hard to say. I wish to deny emphatically, however, that an agreement between President Harriman and Senator Clark has been en- tered into.” President Bancroft is accompanied by E. E. Colvin, Mi W. Clayton, F. H. Knickerbocker #nd Thomas M. Schu- macher. The last named official was for many years general freight agent of the L;nlon Pacific, with headquarters in this city, No Feature in cow’s milk for infant feeding is so im- portant as its purity and the methods of preserving it.

Orlow addressed a large and appreciative audience last evening at up- per Golden Gate Hall. The theme, “Cheer- fulness,” was discussed in all its phases, the speaker emphasizing the importance of good nature and optimism in the bat- tle for success. In addition to his regu- lar Sunday evening lecture Dr. Orlow will speak on Monday evening, November 2, in the main Golden Gate Hall on the subject of “Color,” showing the influence of colors upon success in life. L o o T e e e o He remarked, “Let it go at that; I can stand the loss.” Braig’'s conclusion is that McCreedie and Anderson got into a fight and that McCreedle was not robbed. ——— Every time a man blows himself he comes out at the little end of the horn, = s white. The husband of one of the di- rectors lost his overcoat, and an elaborate lace handkerchief disappeared. It is the wish of the board to give time for the quiet return of the articles, otherwise clever detectives will unearth some sur- prises. N Much interest is felt in the coming mu- sical debut of Miss Virginia White at Century Hall next Wednesday evening. Society will be well represented in the crush that evening, as the patronesses are well known and have hosts of friends, to say nothing of the singer’s own popu- larity. H. J. Stéwart is directing the af- fair, and Miss Frances Nourse, recently of Boston, will assist. Miss White, to- gether with Mrs. Frank Richardson Wells (then Jean Hush), studied voice with Sig- mund Beale of Oakland for some time, and has been a pupil of Loenser in Bos- ton for the last-five years. Her rare tal- ent ang technique were greatly admired when she sang recently before the San Francisco Musical Club. AT A The injustice of some of the prevailing rules in Uncle Sam’s great army can be no’ better illustrated than that which gives the superior officer the claim upon the quarters of the inferior, no matter how long the latter may have occupled the same and how cozy his hands may have made it, Lieutenant Lowenberg and his bride (who was Ruth Dunham) were nicely settled in a pretty vine-cov- ered cottage at the Presidio, kindly of- fered to them by Captain Johnston, who had occupied it. But along, came a col- ored officer, Captain Young, who desired the cottage, and lo! the lieutenant and his bride have now rented a house on Scott street, where they will be undis- turbed. A darker bride may soon grace the interesting cottage. SALLY SHARP. VISITS THE PARK BENT ON SUICIDE Mrs. “Jake” Rudolph Is Taken Into Custody by the Police, Mrs. “Jake” Rudolph, wife of the politician of that name, who was at one time Chris Buckley's guide, went to Golden Gate Park yesterday afternoon With the evident intention of com- mitting suicide by drinking carbolic acid. Before she had a chance to swallow the deadly acid Ser-| geant of Police Helms of the park sta- tion took her into custody ‘and sent her to the Central Emergency Hospital. She Wwas in an extremely nervous condition, brought on by family troubles. Later she was taken to her home. Mrs. ~ Rudolph . left her residence shortly after 10 o'clock in the morning. She purchased a’botgle of carbolic acid, and going out to the park rambled around for some time. The strange actions of the woman at- tracted the attention of a soldier, who notified Scrgeant Helms. The officer went to the park and found Mrs. Rudolph sit- ting on a bench and talking to herself. When searched the acld was found. On the way to the hospital Mrs. Rudolph was in charge of Police Officer de la Guerra. When questioned as to why she wished to end her life the woman replied that there was no use llving when one Wwas better off dead. Some time ago Mrs. Rudolph and her husband were mixed up in some trouble with Police Officer Mulcahy on Powell Etreet, which was settled in the Police ourts. Jailed for Discharging Pistol, Frank Jones was arrested at Turk and Taylor streets late last night and locked up on a charge of carrying concealed weapons and discharging firearms within the city limits. Jones claims that he was assaulted by some unknown person, and while trying to protect himself his pistol was discharged. Officers Sullivan, Snow- ball and Alexander, who made the arrest, thinks that Jones shot at some one. b gt tmiii. Store Entered by Burglars. The store of D, Sternberg, 118 Third street, was entered by burglars early yesterday morning, but they must have been frightened away, as nothing had apparently been stolen. The front door had been forced open and was found in that condition by Policeman Regan, who | scarched the premises. —————— Trapper's Oll cures rheumatismand neuralgta. Drusgiste, 50c fask.

Objects to Statement That Her Face Would Stop Automobile, il e s For a tlme yesterday morning people Wwho reside in the vicinity of t07 Minra street thought that a reat Mount Santa Maria with all its accompanying korrors had commenced operations in thelr midst. A series of terrifying screams wers heard issuing from a house at that number and When the neighbors rushed to thelr win- dows to discover what was the matter they saw a sight which almost con- vinced them that a volcano or some- thing as destructive was at its deadly work. The windows of tne house at 607 Minna street were being shattered and the glass showered into the street. The door was battered from its hinges, and then, as if shot out of the mouth of a volcano, an indescribable quantity of fe- male garments were hurled into the street. The neighbors ‘who strange scene say that, the air for a few mirutes was full of 'hats, capes, furs, skirts, petticoats and other articles of clothing. As no one in the vicinity could even guess the cause of the strange scene, Officer Hemenez was called upcn to Investigate. With club drawn and ready for instant action, he stole cau- tiously up and peered through a broken window. It seems that Annle Gaynard, who lives at 607 Minna street, had politely Informed her sister, Mary Gaynard, that her face would stop an automobile. Mary resented the slur cast upon her personal beauty and proceeded to chastise her sister. Annie threw Mary’s clothing into the street and Mary retaliated by doing the same with Annie's raiment; then both proceeded to make a rough house. Annie finally succeeded in getting Mary by the hair 2nd put her sister into the land of dreams with a few hard blows. Officer Hemenez" placed the two bellig- erents under arrest. Annte was charged With battery and Mary went to the Cen- tral Emergency Hospital for repairs. TWO MEN BEING HELD FOR ASSAULTING O’BRIEN Injured Man Found Unconscious on Sidewalk With Wounds on Head. “E. H. Johnston, employed in the Wash- ington street market, and John J. Thom- as, employed in the Union Square market, Wwere arrested early yesterday morning by Policemen Pearl and Murphy as they Were running away ‘from the corner of Powell and O’ Farrell streets. Investigation by the policemen disclosed the fact that a man named James O'Brien was lying on the sidewalk in an unconscious condition with two wounds on his left temple. The two arrested men admitted that they had been in O'Brien’s company, and said that as the three left Massey & Dunlap’s saloon the injured man fell to the sidewalk. The two prisoners were taken to the city prison and confined in the tanks while the injured man was sent to the Central Emergency Hospital. He remained apparently unconscious all day, but the physician there thought last night he was merely shamming and. had him removed to the City and County Hospital, where he was reported to be improving rapidly. Detective Ryan was detailed on the case and yesterday afternoon he had a talk with the prisoners. Thomas told him that Johnston admitted to him he had struck | O’'Brien, but claimed he did not see the | blow. Under close questioning Johnston admitted the same fact, but said he had merely struck him with his fist because O'Brien followed them out of the saloon and abused them. Johnston had a beer bottle in his pocket at the time of the row, but says he did not use it as a weapon. —_———— SINGS BEAUTIFUL MUSIC AT SACRED HEART CHURCH Signor Dado Renders Forni’s “Ave Maria” and Selections From Verdi’s Requiem Mass. It seemed as though a multitude of the city's people crowded into Sacred Heart Church yesterday morning to participate in the service and hear the wonderful sacred music that was given by the or- ganist, Miss Gertrude Hopkins, and Signor Agusto Dado, the soloist. Signor Dado’s fine voice has often been heard during the grand opera season at the Tivoli Opera-house, and that he would render the noble music of Verdi effective- ly was anticipated. He sang the Confutatis maleditis from the gerat masetro’s Requiem Mass in a manner seldom heard in the city. It was sung at the offertory. Signor Dado sang also Forni's beautiful “‘Ave Maria” and Borghi's “Venite me omnes.” The service was also most impressive, the Rev. Father W. A. Fleming choosing for the subject of his sermon “The King- dom of God Like to a Mustard Seed.” The Rev. Father Phillp Byrne was the celebrant of the mass and the Rev. Father Hugh Lagan, pastor of Sacred Heart Church, presided in the sanctuary. At the conclusion of the service Signor Dade stated that he would again be pleased to sing at the church. witnessed the i ———— Falls From Streetcar. James Cashin, a blacksmith of Emery- ville, Alameda County, and employed by Healy & Tibbets, fell from a car yester- day while on his way to Harbor View. As the car, which was in charge of Motorman Nichols Barron, was nearing Hyde and Tnfen streets Cashin, who, it is alleged, \was under the Influence of liquor, fell off and was dragged for some distance before the car was brought to a standstill. Cashin was taken to the Em%rgency Hospital, where he was treat- ed by Dr. Weyer, who found him suffer- ing from a fracture of the spinal column. His lower limbs, as a consequence, were paralyzed and Cashin may die from the injuries. Motorman Nichols Barron was arrested and charged with battery, but was released on $20 bail. —_— ADVERTISEMENTS. What Shall We Have for Dessert ? ‘This question arises in the family every day.
