Every reserved seat was sold |early in the day and by 8 o'clock last night hundreds of people were turned away. The patronage of the circus is deserved, for the programme is splendid. Ringling s. are not set in a groove and they resent many novelties. The Nelson fam- fam: acroba are the headliners of ‘the show and without doubt they are the greatest in their line. The bareback riders make daring acts and their dash- ing leaps to the backs of galloping horses |are watched with suspense. Captain Webb's performing seals are | wonderful and their tossing and balanc- {ing of a ball put the slippery fingers of many baseball players to shame. The | opening spectacle of the Crusaders is well arranged, the tableaus are full of color and ‘all the participants in the act are | handsomely costumed. The menagerie is both interesting and instructive. The | greatest attraction is a tigress with six cubs 2 month old.

Owing to the fact that the; footpads wore masks none of the other victims have been able to identlfy them. —————————— STAUFFER CHEMICAL WORKS : DESTROYED BY ILAKES’ Two-Story Building Is Gutted and Chinese Workman Is Burned About the Face. | A disastrous fire occurred yesterday | morning at half-past 7 at the sulphur re- ing and whiting plant of the Stauffer mical Company, Hay and Dupont streets. It resulted in the total loss of a two-story brick and woobden building, the estimated damage being $30,000. The fire started in the sulphur grinding mill, and is supposed to have been caused by sparks gencrated by a plece of flint being crushed by the rapidly revolving rollers. The flames spread rapidly, and when the Fire Department arrived the | entire building was a mass of flames. A | second alarm was sent in by Acting Chief | Dougherty and a dozen engines and a | water tower were engaged for more than | an hour in fighting the fire. | Owing to the dense sulphur fumes lhet firemen were compelled to work at some distance from the building. Fifty tons of | Py Truck No. 2, while drawing up at the scene of the fire, was overturned by the rear ,wheels coming in contact with a heavy timber and the driver and tillerman were thrown to the ground. They escaped with a few bruises. A Chinese workman named Ah Jim, employed at the chemi- cal works, was burned on the right side cf the face and was sent to the Harbor Emergency Hoepital for treatment. The | four-story salsoda and cream of tartar works adjoining the sulphur mill escaped | injury owing to the splendid work of the | Fire Department. | The president of the Stauffer Chemical | Company is C. de Guigne, and J. H.! | Wheeler is the vice president, J. Stauffer being secretary and manager. | The loss of the company is fully covered by irsurance and the work of rebuilding the destroyed mill will be done Mthoutl delay. i ————————— OCTOGENARIAN CUTS HIS THROAT WITH A RAZOR Inmate of the King’s Daughters’ Home Commits Suicide While Sick and Despondent. A horrible sight met the eyes of Annie Balser, housemaid in the King’'s Daugh- ters’ Home, 317 Francisco street, when | she entered the room of oneof the inmates | last Tuesday morning and found aged | Charles P. Smith lying on the bed with his throat cut and weltering in his gore. She ran screaming from the room and a surgeon was sent for, who dressed the wound. Owing to the hemorrhage and his advanced age—S82 years—Smith dled yesterday forenoon. A bloody razor and a penknife, with which the wounds had been inflicted, were found on the bed. Smith had been an inmate of the home for about ten years, during which he had been a sufferer from rheumatism and pa- ralysis. He became despondent recently, | and without doubt he had meditated sui- | cide for a long time. He was a native of Denmark. —_————— Robbed While Asleep. C. G. Artsman, 121 Scott street, reached the city from Menlo Park on August 30 and fell asleep in a doorway in Howard | court. When he awoke he discovered | that 65 cents and two baggage checks had been stolen from his pockets. The follow- ing day the checks were presented at the baggage-room at Third and Townsend | streets and the articles taken away. The police were notified, and Peter Enright was arrested by Detectives Regan and O'Connell and identified as the man who presented the baggage checks. He was booked at the City Prison yesterday on a. charge of grand larceny. —_——————— That Yosemite Excursion September 17, via Southern Pacific, will be strictly first-class and personally conducted.

Wale’ Market Street, Near Sixth DEATH SUMMONS CULTURED WOMAN Mrs. C. C. Bennett Falls Dead While Comb- ing Her Hair. DORSANGER 15 BANQUETED Rabbi Is Presented With a Massive Golden Goblet. DR. Mrs. C. C. Bennett died suddenly at the Manhattan Hotel Tuesday night. She was in excellent spirits during the day and her friend, Mrs. Sproat of the Stewart Ho- , who dined with her, states that at that time she was in the best of health. She retired to her room shortly before 9 o'clock. The landlord, F. S. Skagss, found her lying cold in death at 11 o'clock yesterday morning. From the position of the body she must have been in the act of arranging her | bair prior to retiring when death camxxl When found she was in her night robe, lying face down on the floor, with a hair comb in ner hand. The body was remov- ed to the Morgue, where the Coroner held Rabbl Jacob Voorsanger was the guest of honor at a banquet tendered him last who desired to express their appreciation of his completion of thirty years’ work for the cause of Judaism. The hosts of the banquet are men?bers of the Independent Order of B'nai B'rith, of which Rev. Dr. Voorsanger is a dis- tinguished leader. The banquet was given at a downtown restaurant and an elab- Max Popper acted as toastmaster, and in a brief speech he tendered a welcome to the guest of the evening. D. S. Hirsh- berg proposed the toast “Our Guest” and delivered a eulogy on the career of Dr. ‘oorsanger, whom he designated as a|an autopsy, the report being that death “God.appointed leader of Israel” The|was due to fatty degeneration of the heart. Mrs. Bennett's son, Gordon, who was spending his vacation at Woodside, was telephoned for and arrived in town late in the afternoon. Another son, Charles R. Bennett, who is a member of the firm of Mustard & Co., in Shanghai, was cabled to regarding the funeral arrange-| ments. Mrs. Bennett was born in Beverly, Mass. She lived in China for nearly thirty vears and up to a year ago, when she came to San Francisco, and with her son Gordon had resided at the Manhattan ever since. She was a highly cultured woman of much refinement and greatly beloved by the people with whom she came in con- tact. Her untimely death is the source of great grief to all her friends. Her age was about 55 years. She was highly conected with prom- inent people in the East and is reported to have left a large fortune in the Ori- ent and New York. — e Thousands suffer from a short, hacking coush who might be cured by Piso's Cure. » speaker dwelt upon the broad views of the rabbi and his earnest efforts to as- similate the religion of the Jew and har- monize all points of doctrine with Amer- fcan citizenship. On behalf of the members of B'nal Voorsanger a massive gold goblet, suit- ably engraved. In delivering his response Dr. Voorsanger was visibly affected, and he assured his hearers that he would ever cherish the kindly feelings that had prompted the banquet and presentation. The rabbi spoke eloquently of the ad- vance of Judaism in America, and said his life’s efforts had been and would al- ways be devoted to the end to put thor- ough Jewish sentiment into Americanism and to teach that the narrow environ- ments of the past must give way to the broad progress of the present, thus bene- fiting religion and citizenship. Toasts were also delivered by Wallace A. Wise, Rev. M. 8. Levy, E. Myron Wolf, George Samuels, Otto Irving Wise, Rev. M. Friedlander, Marcus Rosenthal and H. Gutstadt. ADVERTISEMENTS.

HOT WAVE PAYS - VISIT 10 CITY Temperature Rises With ‘ Most Astonishing 1 Rapidity. | A genuine hot wave struck San Fran-| cisco yesterday, and although it did not tarry long on its way into the Pacific, it made itself generally appreciated. The mercury stood at 64 degrees Fahrenheit in the early morning and rose very grad- ually. About noon it began to be hot in earnest, and at 1:20 o’clock p. m. the ther- mometers registered 92 degrees in the shade. June § was the only day this year when it was warmer than yesterday. The te perature on the former occasion was % degrees Fahrenheit. The mercury fell twenty degrees yesterday from the max- imum in a period of three hours, and the weather last night was of the bggmy character which makes California faffous the world over. Professor McAdie of the Weather Bu- reau has complled statistics from the of- ficial reports showing that there have been but eleven days in San Francisco during the summer months of the last thirty years when the temperature has risen higher than 9 degrees Fahrenheit. The cause of yesterday's heat is trace- able, according to McAdie, to the exist- ence of an area of high pressure over Oregon and Nevada. The heat in the in- terior of the State was intense yesterday, although no records were broken. More warm weather is scheduled for to-day. Professor McAdie said yesterday: “There is nothing llke San Francisco weather anywhere else in the world. I | foresee that as the population of the United States increases this city will be- come more and more popular as a sum- | mer resort. It Is never very hot for any | length of time, and we know nothing of | the cold weather which'makes life in the East so uncomfortable during the win~ ter. San Francisco's weather is bound to make her greater and richer than if she had within her boundaries the greatest gold mines in the world.”™ —————— 1UNKO MEN ARRESTED WITH VICTIM IN TOW John Maloney Returns After Four | Months’ Absence With a Companion. John Maloney, alias Jack O'Brien, alias John Mahoney, arrested at Third and Market streets yes- terday morning by Detectives Ryan and Taylor and locked up pending further developments. They had in tow George | Dickison, a visitor from Los Angeles. Maloney is a well-known bunko man and is wanted on a charge of grand lar- ceny for tricking Charles Nelson, a tan- ner, out of §i15 in a room at 34 Ellis street on May 22 last. He left this city at that time and had apparently just re- turned. He has served a term of seven years for grand larceny in Seattle. The police say he is one of the smoothest bunko men in the country. Brock is known as an Eastern bunko man, and it is supposed that Maloney had induced him to come here with him. The police have information that Brock was arrested in New Orleans, but that is all they know about him. —_—— Drink Causes a Fire.
