She enjoys dancing and singing, and often now when among friends and in a merry and reminiscent mood she will entertain them with a few of the fantastic steps that she tripped with the picturesque cavaliers when a maiden in the City of Mexico ninety years ago. Ocoasionally Senora Barone warbles verses from old Spanish love and cradle songs that she learned from her mother a century ago. Her voice is not as clear as in bygone decades and quavers because of the rents of time, but the heart and spirit of her girlhood days are reflected in the amorous lay ‘When the Old Men's Singing Club gave its ini- tial concert last year this remarkable old woman rendered a Spanish air, “La Hoja,” to a guitar accompaniment by Senor Joseph Balderamos. Senora Barone says that she was born in 1798 in a little village called Mexiclan > + in Mexico. That was before the death of George Washington. Her childhood was passed in the vicinity of the City of Mex- ico. After her marriage she came to Cali- fornia, and for eighty years has lived here. Sixty years ago she visited the present site of Alameda, her home at that time being near Mission San Jose. Her husband died fifty years ago and all the members of her family, with the excep- tion of the daughter with whom she now makes her home, have likewise passed aw. This daughter, Mrs. Lopez, is ap- proaching- 7- years. Senora Barone is known to many of the pioneer Spanish families of Alameda County. For years she lived on the prof- its that she derived from the sale of herb medicines of her own manufacture. She was always welcomed in Spanish familles where sickness existed and was treated with great respect becawse of her venera- ble appearance and healing skill.

DEATH GLAIMS GED MARINER Captain William Whit- ney Suddenly Strick- en in Alameda. ALAMEDA, Feb. 3.—While sitting in a room of the station at Alameda Point this morning waiting for a train Captain William Whitney of the schooner Jessie Minor. toppled to the floor and in a few minutes was dead. Medical aid was sum- moned from Oakland, but the stricken mariner had ceased to breathe long be-| fore a physician arrived. Deputy Coroner | James Fowler conveyed the body to the local branch morgue, where an inquest will - be’ held to-morrow evening at 5 a'clock. Tt is thought that death was due to heart disease, from which the master mar{ner had suffered. Captain Whitney was widely known among the shipping and seafaring men of the Pacific Coast. He was a native of New Orleans and was 67 years of age. His wife died some years agd, since which time he made his home when in port with relatives in San Francisco. He had spent several days on board of the Jessie Minor, which is laid up in Oakland Creek. He intended to cross the bay this morn- ing when death overtook him.

Rogers surrendered, and was sent to the City Prison. The pistols, two ra- zors and other household effects he had gathered together were taken from him. Mrs. Frisble had been attending to do- mestic duties, when she heard three long | rings of the front door bell.

Investigating, the startled woman saw a man in a rear room. Quietly Mfs. Frisble rushed out of the house and gave a passing wagon driver the alarm. A tel- ephone message was sent to police head- quarters, and Captain Wilson quickly dis- patched the posse of officers, who sur- rounded the residence. Kyte saw the un- suspecting burglar at work and plunged into the house, with his companions. It was only a minute's work to seize and handcuff the surprised marauder.
