To-day Mr. and Mrs. Varnell leave on a honey- moon trip to Santa Cruz. They will re- turn next week and go to Watsonville to prepare their home of the future.

When we entered Currie and Wilson were there, and they immediately attacked us with bottles and beer glasses. I was struck on top of the head and there is a | big lump marking the spot. We ran out of the saloon when Currie pulled a re- volver out of his pocket, but not before Durham had knocked the weapon out of his hand and picked it up. Durham gave me the revolver and I put it in my pocket. “We walked a block or two and finally went along Fourteenth street, as Durham wanted to take a car to go home. As we were passing Currie's house, at the cor- | ner of Shotwell street, Wilson came out and struck me. We clinched, and Currie appeared in the doorway and fired a shot at Lally, the bullet striking him on the THINKS HACKMAN HAS HIS DIAMOND RING William Ross Says He Lost It While Being Driven to the Bohemian Club. William Ross, formerly connected with the passenger department of the Southern Pacific Company, reported to the police last evening that he had been robbed of a diamond ring, which he values at $400. Ross said he lost the ring two nights ago while being driven from the Palace Hotel to the Bohemian Club. He ex- pressed the belief that the hackman, while assisting him from the carrlage at the club entrance, removed the ring from | his finger. e —— Girl Mixes in i Fight. Miss Susie Forbes, who says she is 3 candymaker and Is 19 years of age, 8ot mixed up in a fight at Fifth and Mission | streets early yesterday morning with Jo- | seph Smith, a bartender, and James Brown, a carpenter. She was struck on the mouth by Brown and her lips were cut. Policeman Hyland appeared on the scene and arrested the trio for disturbing | the peace. Brown showed fight and had to be clubbed into submission. The girl | and Brown were taken to the Central Emergency Hospital before being locked up in the City Prison. They were all bailed out. — e Surrendered by Bondsmen. Anthony Curtin, known to the police as “Babe” Curtin, was surrendered by his bondsmen yesterday and now occupies a cell in the City Prison tili his transfer to the County Jail. He was out on bonds awaiting trial on a charge of burglary. His brother and sister were his sureti but when they ascertained that “‘Babe had been mortgaging his share of his father's estate they decided it was time to quit. Curtin and a companion ware discovered trying to open a safe in a grocery on Mission and Mary streets by Special Officer Maloney and a shot was | fired at the officer. Avlted a Panic. George Marks was seized with a fit in the Central Theater last night and dur- | ing the excitement that followed some- body shouted “Fire.” Henry Shumer, who was on the stage, averted a panic by an- nouncing to the audience the cause of the commotion. In a few minutes Marks was on the way to the Recelving Hospital and the play continued. ———————— Stabbed a Bricklayer.

Currie fired two other shots, and I heard Wilson say that he had been shot. We then ran away. I left Currie's | revolver in a saloon at Twenty-third and | Valencia streets and told the police where to find it." Durham corroborates McGoldrick's story | | and says that he took Lally to the office | of Dr. John Wagner, 2049 Mission street, who attended to his wound. He declares that the only shots fired were by Currie, who stood in the doorway. The police are actively engaged in en- deavoring to fix the responsibility for the shooting and Currie will undoubtedly be | taken into custody and asked to give his | version of the affair. The members of | the wireworkers union are reticent about the matter and there seems to be a de- | sire to throw every obstacle in the way | af the police. Physicians Have Trouble. Dr. Max Axelrod was arrested yester- day morning by Policeman Maloney on a warrant charging him with battery. He | was at once released on bail. The com- | plaining witness is Miss L. J. Stratton, a physiclan of 758 Bush street, who al- leges that Dr. Axelrod attacked her on Saturday during a dispute as to rent. Dr. Axelrod says that Miss Stratton owes | him some money for rent and when he asked her for it she refused to pay and he tore up the hall carpet. He denies that he laid a hand upon her.

During a Playful Struggle for Firearm Boy Is Shot. —_— ‘While struggling in play for the pos- session of a rifle of small caliber, Frank Hoeckle Jr., fourteen years of age, acci- dentally shot and killed his brother Ed- dle, two years his junior, about 10 o'clock yesterday morning, at their parents’ home, 1419% Sanchez street. The two boys were preparing to o across the bay for a Sunday outing and were dressing for the trip in their room. The younger brother had taken the rifle from a drawer and laid it on the bed dur- ing the temporary absence of the elder from the room. When Frank returned he started to pick up the gun, grasping it by the stock, and Eddie caught it by the barrel to take it away from him. They had struggled only a moment, when the gun was discharged, the bullet striking Eddie over the left eye and penetrating the brain. He fell to the floor, uncon- scious, and although he lingered until 2 o'clock in the afterncon, he never .re- gained his senses. HIDES HIMSELF IN TERROR. The elder boy, dumb with terror, tried from the floor and then, overcome with the horror of the situation, ran away and hid himself. It was two hours before his parents could find him. The moans of the dying boy awoke the father, who was sleeping in an adjoining room after a wearisome night's work. He | went into the room to find his child lying in a pool of blood on the floor and too far gone to offer any explanation for his condition. The rifle lying on the floor told a mute story of the cause of the tragedy. Immediately the father had the wounded boy removed to St. Luke's Hospital, where the physicians pronounced the wound fatal. After death the body was removed to an undertaking establishment and subsequently taken back to the home. Fitzgerald and Graham made an investi- gation of the case. Their conclusion was that the shooting was entirely accidental. BOTH BOYS HAD CARTRIDGES. The unfortunate fratricide was taken to the Hall of Justice, accompanied by his father, where he told in detail the story He was unable to state He had some cartridges that fitted the gun. He boy who loaded the gun. At the time of the shooting the father and the two boys were the only ones at | home, the mother and the five other chil- dren having gone to church. - The father runs a grocery at Sanchez and Du can streets and the family residence next door. Both the dead boy and his elder brother carried routes on a morning newspaper. As a precautionary measure the police determined to book the elder boy for man- slaughter and he was released later on $500 bail. Both of the.parents are heart- broken over the tragedy. ——— Books bound for 25 cents up; postal or tele- phone 5051 Main. Mysell-Rollins, 22 Clay. * e Accused of Burglary.

A S COURTS A FULL INVESTIGATION Dr. Winslow Anderson | Replies to Charges of Associates. Dr. Winslow Anderson, president of (he} board of trustees of the College of Phy- sicians and Surgeons, is evidently not worrying over the attempt of a number of former members of the faculty to wrest from him the control of the in- stitution. Dr. Anderson returued last | night from a trip to the Yosemite and lished in yesterday's Call to the effect that a meeting of several physicians who had been connected with the institution had been held at which it was agreed that the conditions prevailing in the in- stitution- were such as to demand a ju- diclal inquiry with a view to placing it in charge of a new and larger board of trustees. Dr. Anderson denies all the allegations made at the meeting and says he is prepared for a full investigation of the affairs of the institution “The men who are seeking to make trouble for themselves and the College of Physicians and Surgeons,” said Dr. An- derson, ‘‘are a set of malcontents who at one time were members of its faculty, but who for reasons best known to them- selves resigned therefrom and are not now connected with the institution. We certainly court a full investigation by the proper authorities and we have noth- ing to conceal. TERM OF GRADUATION. “Regarding the charge that students have been graduated by the trustees after having failed to pass the faculty exam- inations and have not taken one-third of the curriculum, I will say that no one shorter time than that prescribed by the rules of the American Medical Associa- tion, which we follow to the very letter. The papers and records are on file at the dean’s office and are at any time open for inspection. “As to our failure to increase the num- ber of trustees from five I will say that our articles of incorporation make the minimum number of trustees five and the maximim fifteen. We have five now and should we find a man competent to act as trusfee by unanimous consent of the board he will undoubtedly be chosen. There is no occasion at present for in- creasing the number. I deny that the | standard of the college has declined and | as proof will say that we have as many students this year.as any vear in the past. Out of thirty-three students in the medical department eleven failed to pass at the last examination and I maintain that the standard is higher than it ever has been. - HOSPITAL FOR POOR. “There has never been any misappro- priation of funds unless you choose to call the establishment of a general hos- pital for the sick poor a misappropriation. All this matter was threshed out two or three years ago when an arbitration com- mittee consisting of Judges Foote, Car- penter and Cotton made a full investiga- tion and every finding was m favor of the college as a matter of .aw. The decision of the committee was final and there is no appeal therefrom. ““The trouble with the malcontents is that they are claiming ownership and there can be no ownership in an educa- tional institution. They are displeased at not being on the board of trustees and because wé are spending money m estab- ;Ilh.!‘l;“ a hospital instead of paymg divi- ends.” LDB BRawen & CO Monday Tuesday Wednesday G Table butter—psrsquare 43¢ 2 squares 8gc Eggs—-guaranteed 25¢c Coffee—EKona—reg'ly 2c1b 20¢ Has strength and flavor Oyste‘S—Our Choice reg’ly 3oc—large tin Mackerel-reg’ly $1 25—s Ib pail $1 Tea—Mandarin Nectar—ablend 45¢ Ancoombra Ceylon—Bee brand 45C reg’ly 6oc Ib Finnan haddies—Nears 13¢ reg’ly 20c tin—winter novelty Tomato catsup—6.B.4& Co. 15¢ reg’ly 2oc bottle—natural or sweet Bovril—Meat extract reglly specia) Take a teaspoonful 20z 335¢ 25C to a cup of water— 40z65¢c go¢ we recommend it highly s Sweet pickles—home made 15¢ Old Virginia—reg’ly 20¢ 25¢ and 30c bottle Royans a la Vatel-large tin 123¢ reg'ly 15¢ and rzjc—small tin 1OC Crystola—reg'ly soc doz doz 45¢ A good scouring soap Lentils—imported 33 1bs 25¢ reg’ly 23 Ibs 25¢ Salad dressing-pure oil used 25¢ Sierra Madre—reg’ly 30c bottle Figs—Smyrna—reg’ly 25 b 20¢ They'll soon be gone for this year R Toilet soap—Meiba 37kc reg’ly so¢ dozen Talcum powder 3 for2s¢c Jeanette’s—reg’ly loc tin— good for sunburn Window screens 20¢ Oak frnme—;; x 37 inches wide adjustable-reg’ly 25c—3sc here 30C Liquor department Whisky—Cedar Brook—bot $1 15 reg'ly $1 s0 and $6— gal 4 50 Cognac—F. 0. . bot $1 15 Hennessy—our bottling— gal 4 50 reg’'ly $1 50 and $5 Gin—Wynand Fockink $125 Stone jug or large black bottle— reg’ly $1 30 bottle $275 Claret—ExtraV V reg’ly $3 5o dozen—quarts— allowance for bottles returned soc 4 Send postal for catalogue 432 Pine 232 Sutter 2800 California San Francisco Thirteenth and Clay Streets Oaklans | Weekly Call, §1 per Year. f
