10 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1902 CAPTAIN BUNN OF BRITISH SHIP CARMA — o B is the world’s only collector of match box labels. His name is Bunn. He is commander of the British ship Carmanian, now loaded with California grain end in the stream all ready to commence & voyage to the antipodes. Willlam F. Bunn, collector, he prefers to be called, end, as far as match box labels are con- cerned, says he is the only rider in the world of that hobby horse. He has sailed the seas for two generations and while of late years he looks for and gathers in ©0dd toys and curious pictures for a small army of grandchildren in England, he de- wotes most of a large leisure to collecting and pesting into massives tomes the la- bels by which the world’s match makers &im to attract attention to their wares. As a navigator he has visited many lanGs and every country that uses the match of modern invention has contrib- uted to the Bunn collection of labels. He has more than 3000 different specimens. When he reached San Francisco last Sep- tember his collection numbered 2083. Dur- ing bis stay in port he has hunted day end night, has corresponded with friends in @ifferent parts of the country and has secured the seventeen labels necessary to bring up the numerical strength of his collection to a good round figure. . in match box labels he takes more pride than do many parents in their off- epring. He is the only collector and con- sequently has the finest collection on earth. He hopes to have 5000 labels be- fore he retires from the sea. Captain Bunn’s cabin on board the Car- manian stands dione as a floating curios- ity shop. “Junk” might be the verdict of the uninitiated and casual observer. There are boxes of dried bones that to ne but Captain Bunn would appear ittle value. These are the breast ; albatross, turkey and do- n; and on these skeleton scuvenirs of former feasts Captain Bunn builds strange looking craft, mod- els of Chinese junks and miniature war vessels of a bygone d He b a whole fleet of these odd look- ing vessels and each is in a glass case by itself, resting on 2 teak ocean, carved to a storm-beaten roughness and painted a deep sea green. From the beaks of the albatross family he has built barges and gondolas and other anatomical scraps have furnished foundations for concelts of fearful and wonderful construction. The whole construction is displayed on ghelves and sideboard, on the cabin table, attached to the cabin walls and swinging in the space below the skylight. Captain Bunn's most precious treasure, however, is kept out of sight. The ship’s safe small, but whatever document is left out- ride there is always space Inside for the tomes containing the 3000 match box la- lels, the only collection of its kind in the world McCulloch Goes on Cruise. The revenue cutter McCulloch, which has been lying at Sausalito for some months past, went out of the harbor yesterday for a cruise. She will go north as far as Point Reyes and while out may run south as far as Santa Berbara. e part of the cruise will be devoted to target practice and if the weather tavorable the vessel's speeding ability will be ziven & few tests. The revenue cutters lead probebly the easiest life of any vessels in T am’s service and the McCulloch's of- hted at the prospect of an thing ¢ vary the monotony of the idle £ Seusal Beyond crossing the bay at e 3 tervals to replace the coal used up in keep- g in operation her electric batteries the cCulloch has done nothing since her last cruise in the north.

John Malone, second officer of the ship Elwell, was convicted by#a jury yesterday in the United States District Court of beating and wounding A. G. Johnson, a member of the crew, during the voyage from Newcastle to Acapulco on May 19 of this year. % The evidence showed that there had been rough times on board the ship, owing to the presence of one or two sail- ors imbued with socialistic opinions. John Fitzgerald, one of the sailors, attacked Captain Willilam Ellis, master of the ship, ‘with a razor, and the captain was obliged, in self-defense, to draw his revolver and shoot arfd serlously wound his assailant. Mate Malone introduced evidence to show ithat Johnson was a skulker, and that on the occasion of the battery John- son had deliberately left his watch on a dark night and had gone to sleep in the forecastle. United States District Attor- niey ‘Woodworth represented the prosecu- tion. —————— Soldier Severely Punisted. A soldier from Angel Island with the peculiar name of Cerogf Cerogf was con- victed of the charge of battery by Police Judge Mogan yesterday and was sen- tenced to pay a fine of $200, with the al ternative of 100 days in jail. Sunday ernoon Cerogf was drunk on Washington street, near Kearny, and amused himseit | by striking citizens who passed him. One of them, Henry Dietrich of 639 Washing- ton street, had his lips cut by a blow from thegsoldier’s fist. Last Saturday the Judge -imposed a similar sentence upon Maurice Johnston, a drunken soldier, who abused a citizen on Montigomery street. e Wcman Heavily Fined. Mrs. Rebecca Scott, who keepsfa lodg- ing-house at $44 Mission street, was con- victed by Police Judge Mogan yesterday of selling liquor without a license and was sentenced to pay a fine of $100. The money was at once paid into court. NIAN HAS HOBBY ALL HIS OWN GRIME AROUSES THE GITIZENS Benicia Proposesto Make Life and Property Secure. _— Greeks Who Caused Riot and Killing Are in Conflnement. e B Special Dispatch to The Call. BENICIA, Dec. 15—A state of unrest and anxiety has prevailed here since last night's riot and murder, but no disturb- ance occurred to-day. The citizens of Benicia are determined that security to life and property shall again be restored in this community and definite action is being taken to bring this end about. It was intended to hold a mass meeting of citizens to-day, but this was postponed until to-morrow evening. The reason for the postponement was that the Board of City Trustees met with members of ths firm of Kullman, Salz & Co., who employ the Greeks who caused the disturbance. As a sesult of this meeting the employ- ers ordered all the Greeks into the tannery enclosure and locked them up there. Their bedding and personal effects were taken in and they will remain in confinement until the strike is settled. Hopes are now entertained that a settle- ment will be brought about. The Greeks had been kept in the tannery from the time that they arrived here three months ago untik the 1st of December, when they ‘were released and sent to the hotels to board. Coroner McDonald impaneled a jury of nine men to-day to inquire into the death of Jacob Jensen, who was killed yester- day. The jury viewed the remains and then adjourned. No date for the inquest has been set, as it is necessary to procure considerable evidenc: Constable Hyde swore in five deputies to-day and it is belleved that the peace will be kept until a final settlement of the trouble can be reached. The citizens have issued the following call for the mass meeting: “In view of the recent riot and murder perpetrated In this community the pres- ent situation here seems to be an intol- erable one which calls for the prompt ac- tion of every citizen, and therefore the people of Benicia are requested to as- zomble en masse at the City Hall Tues- day evening to consider how to secure per- manent peace and security in this city. “CITIZENS' COMMITTEE. At a meeting of the Tanners’ Union now on strike held this evening it was de- cided to publish in the San Francisco pa- pers a statement of the umion’s position, saying that the union men have not start- ed, participated in or had any connection with any of the brawls and rows which have occurred in Benicia since the strike began. The union also decided to attend the funeral of the murdered Jacob Jensen in a body. Peter Salos, one of the Greeks who fired into the crowd of men, women and chil- dren Sunday evening, was arrested to-day on a /complaint sworn to by a citizen charging him with assault with intent to commit murder. He was held under bonds of $5000 and failing to secure bondsmen is now in jail here. s von § : % B e T e T T T T e D T R S R R aanas JORROROORN RN §§ | % | 5 | RESIDENCE TELEPHONES OUR RATES ARE CHEAPER Than Any City of Proportionatc Size in the United States On and After January 1, 1903 Individual Line, no nickel attachment, unlimifed city switching . . . $5.00 per month Two Party Line, no nickel attachment, unlimited city switching . . . $4.00 per month Pacific States Telephone & T élegraph Co. 216 Bush Street. 216 Bush Street.
