Oil King and Party Paying a Short Visit to San Francisco. John D. - Rockefeller, muiti-millionaire, Standard Ofl magnate, ‘eunder of the University of Chicago, which he has en- dowed with several ordinary fortunes, and owner of big slices of stock in the Union Pacific, Southern Pacific and other Western roads, is in San Franeisco. The famous man of finance arrived here yes- terday from Southerm California, accome his wite, Johr. D. Rockefeller Jr. and wife, Miss .. M. Spelman. a stster Rockefeller Sr., Miss Adella Prentiss of Cleveland, who an old friend of the family: the millionaire's pri- vate physician, Dr. H. F. Biggar; and & corps of valets and malds sufficient in number to attend to tha wants of th party. The present visit of John D. Rock- efeller completes the fourth trip he has made across the continent since 1334, and it will not be his last If providence per- mits, for the Standard Oil man delights in California climate and has caid that he intends to spend his winters here. He started on his Western trip from New hen the East wa being disturbed by flerce blizzards. HI journey westward as far as Albuquerque | was a rather circuitous one, owing to nu- merous washouts along the route he had orginally selected. Two cars, the “Cas- and “Atlanta,” the latter George were provided him for his journey of over 7000 miles, and on arriving at Albuquerque the younger Rockefeller and his wife were switched off from the party in the car “Atlanta™ and made a trip to Mexico, rejoining the miilionaire later in Pasadena. A great change has been wrought in the appearance of John D. Rockefeller since his last visit to San Francisco two years ago. A disease which medical sclence has fought hard to conquer, but which is sup- posed to have originated:in the stomach, has deprived the millionaire of all the hair on his body, giving him the appear- ance of a man much older than he really i=, and greatly embarrassing him by rea- son of tne notoriety that followed his af- fliction. Stories have been telegraphed broadcast that Rockefeiler has offered fabulous sums for a curc of his disease, and the effect of these tales, which Dr. | Biggar onounces absolutely false, has been a continual annoyance to the pa- tient, who is pestered by cranks and spe- clalists, eager to have a chance to win the rich prize which Rockefeller was reported | to have offered. His evasive methods with newspaper - representatives during his westward journey are attributed to his fear that some cold-hearted scribe might try to force him into a discussion of his physical troubles and add further notorfety to them. As a _safeguard against any such possibility the million- alre has delegatéd his physician to act as his spokesman. Dr. Biggar is a life- long friend of the Rockefeller family, and discussing the stories that have been cir- culated about him, said yesterday ir. Rockefeller came West simply for recreation, and [ can assure you that he has enjoved his trip immensely. As re- gards his health it was never better, a | fact that was demonstrated by his activ- ity in Southern California. He 18 a man who enjoys outdoor exercise, and he had plenty of it while in the south. He ts a | good golf player and indulged in the in- vigorating sport whenever the opportu- was afforded him on the links. “Mr. Rockefeller always takes good care of himself. He carefully sele his food, like any sensible person should, and the reports that he is a dyspeptic or an invalid from stomach trouble are pure rubbish. He certainly Is in no need of a new stomach, a fact that I feel able to emphasize in my professional capacity as his medical advisor.” Dr. Biggar had no need to confirm the reports concerning Mr. Rockefeller's loss of hair, for its absence upon his head Is conspicuously noticeable, but the learned physiclan, however, remarked that the predicament of his wealthy patient is by no means as serfous as was first sup- posed. . ‘Mr. Rockefeller,” said Dr. Biggar; flered the loss of his hair through ill- ness, but it Is slowly returning and there are the best hopes that he will regain a full- growth.” Discussing the trip to the coast, Dr, Biggar said that the only business attend? eu to by the head of the party was to read his mall, which accumulated at cer- tain points along the route and to inspect several small roads which he owns in the Southwest, where he had nct been for nearly elghteen years, notwithstanding his four trips West in the interim. The stay of the party will be a short one in the city, for it is their plan to leave to-night or te-morrow morning for the East, by way of Ogden. DECIDE TO THROW OPEN GALLERY TO THE PUBLIC Directors of Art Association Provide for Free Exhibition of Fine Pictures. The board of directors of the San Fran; cisco Art Assoclation has decided to give the public the benefit of the last week of the spring exhibition at the Mark Hops kins Institute and open free of charge tha Mary Frances Searles gallery in which the pictures are hung. This does not re, fer to the institute proper, for which the usual admission fee will be required, but only to the great gallery. which has @& separate entrance and was built with just such occaslons as this in view. Therg the models submitted in competition fof the varfous monuments which have res cently been erected in this city, work of the School of Design and other prog ductions have been exhibited in the pash and invariably drew large audiences. This is the first time that a pletur exhibition In this gallery has been opene: to the public for a long time. There i3 every reason to belleve that it will prove a great attraction. This particular ex- hibition has been universaily pronounced to be one of the best representative die- plays, so far as quality is concerned, that has yet been made by California artists. The assoctation, realizing how desirable is for the public to become more familias with what is being accomplished by our painters, provides this opportunity for a leisurely study of thelr most recent work. The gallery will be open during the day from Monday until Saturday, between th= hours of 9 and ————— Chinese Gambler Dies.
