So popular was he, both in his officlal ca- pacity and as an after-dinner speaker, that when his term of three years ex- pired, in April, 1901, his Government re- sponded to public sentiment at Washing- ton and reappointed him In violation of established rule, later making him Minis- ter of Commerce.

The engine, | whether out of cussedness or incompe- tency, refused to pull two coaches over hill and the passengers, rather than camp out in darkness and desolation all night, sted the train to the summit. The train was crowded with humanity | when it reached the curve just this side | of the old Italian Cemetery. There it | stopped. The engineer pulled the throt- | tle wide open, but the wheels refused to revolve. Coal was heaped in the firebox and the blower put on until the safety valve popped at 150 pounds pressure, but a the only motion was when the breaks | were released and the train slid back down the hill, Nearly half an hour passed with the train still stalled. Finally the engineer | appealed for assistance, and the conduc- tor quietly passed the word that if the | passengers’ wished any dinner they had | better lend a helping hand. The crowded | cars were quickly emptied.’ Women and | children walked ahpad, taking the fnabil- | ity of the locomotive to perform its duty | good-naturedly and two lines of men on | either side of the train, threw their | strength against the braces. The train |moved slowly forward covering a dis- | tance of about 300 yards in fifteen min- | utes. Once over the hill the train went | through to the station by gravity. Loco- motive No. § will elther go to the repair shops or be consigned to the scrap pile.

He Sustains Wounds on Head, but Surgeons Say He May Recover. — Charles Vandergrift, a soldier attached to the Eighteenth Field Battery, lles In & Pprecarfous condition at the Post Hospital at the Presidio, with two severe lacera- | tlons of the scalp and a possible fracture of the skull, due to his horse falling with him on Van Ness avenue, rising and drag- ging him for nearly a block and kicking him while his right foot was caught in the stirrup. At 9:30 o'clock yesterday morning the young soldler, riding a spirited horse, came up Van Ness avenue from the Pre- sidio at a hand gallop. As he neared Jackson street a passing car caused his horse to swerve and balk. With the ends of the reins Vandergrift struck the shy- ing animal a couple of sharp blows. The horse broke into a brisk canter, but had only gone a few strides when the slippery asphalt brought horse and rider heavily | to the ground. The horse fell on its right side, pinning the trooper's leg under its body. The man had barely recovered from the shock when the horse started to get on its feet. As the weight of the ani- mal's body was lifted from the man he | made frantic efforts to reach the stirrup |leather but fafled. His right foot was jammed in the stirrup. The horse, al- | ready frightened by his fall, broke into a | run, dragging the unfortunate man after | him. The trooper kept his wits about | | him wonderfully and made desperate ef- | | forts to stop the animal, but the contin- | | ued pounding on the unylelding asphalt | soon rendered him unconscious. | An effort was made to stop the horse at the corner of Washington street, but the | animal turned quickly down that street | |and made for the pavement. This turn | | brought the man’s body directly behind | | the horse’s heels and he lashed out vi- | ctously, kicking the unconscious form | again and again and dashing the body | with great force against a telegraph pos: | The foot came free at last from the stir- | | Tup and the man lay limp on the grass | | that edges the sidewalk, his limbs and face twitching In agony. Blood poured | | from wounds at the back of his head, be- | low his right eye was a cut and contusion, | | his clothes were torn and his body | brused. 3 Dr. T. L. Mahoney, who resides at 1659 | Washington street, was quickly on the | spot and made a rapid examination and | | | found two lacerated wounds of the scalp and a possible fracture of the skull. The doctor bound up the wounds and advised | that he be removed at once to the Post | Hospital at the Presidio. This was done, | | The surgeons at the Post Hospital do not | think the skull is fractured and stated later in the afternoon that the man had | | a good fighting chance for life. JEWISH CONGREGATION | DEDICATES SEPHER THORA | | P | Rev. Dr. M. S. Levy in Performing Ceremony Speaks of Heroism of Hebrews. A most interesting ceremony was per- formed at the Congregation Chevra Thi- lim, Howard and Sixth streets, yesterday, when a Sepher Thora was dedicated. The address was delivered by the Rev. M. S Levy, In the course of which he spoke of the persecutions to which the Hebrews | had been subjected and related Instances | of martyrdom which had been suffered heroically by many of their race. Dr. Levy said that without religion a man could not make a good citizen, and he called upon the congregation to stand by its place of worship and above all to maintain its religion, which he said was the oldest of all religions. The Jew, he said, could boast of the bluest of blue blood. They had had their kings and their queens, their army and their navy and when called upon the Jew, he de- clared, was ready to fight for his country The rabbi instanced the number of Jew who had volunteered to go to the Phil- ippines and one of their co-religlonists, he | gald, was the first to fall in battle on the | island for the United States. Dr. Levy then opened the scroll and for the privi- |lege of writing in the unfinished letters in Hebrew there was a brisk bid of money. The sums offered are to be de- voted to the fund of the synagogue. —_—————————— ASKS IF THE MEN HAVE | FORGOTTEN GALLANTB.Y! o | Mrs. Fowler Is Saddened at Finding Men Puffing Cigarettes in City’s Restaurants. Mrs. O. 8. Fowler addressed a large au- dience at the Alnambra Theater yesterday afternoon, her subject being “Progressive Peychology.”! Mrs. Fowler took occasion to allude to social affairs of the city and expressed her astonishment that customs have changed in San Francisco since her last visit here. She regretted to find that {in the restaurants men smoked r cigarettes and cigars notwithstanding the presence of women. Mrs. Fowler asked whether the men of San Francisco had lost their gallantry. She deplored to see such a change and promised that before she left the city she | would say a good deal more on social matters as a result of her observations. it was her Intention, she declared, to speak out firmly and give her opinions of what she had seen since returning. Mrs. Fowler added a great deal of spir- itual advice, recommending that the high- est_and most ennobling course should be | pursued. | THREE YOUTHFUL THIEVES LOOT A GROCERY STORE Climb Through Transom and Steal | Quantity of Tobacco and $15 | in Cash. Frank Sullivan, aged 14 years, and who | lives at 15 Scott place; Harry Gallatiban, | age 12 years, of 977 Pacific street, and a colored boy named Wallace McKnight, 1so 12 years old and living at 1021 Clay | ftreet, entered the grocery store owned by John Schleef, at the corner of Pow- eil and Jackson streets, Saturday night, and stole $15 and a quantity of tobacco. | | Sullivan was the ringleadef.
