Yesterday afternoon and the girl of his choice, Miss Ma- mie Cannon of 223 Perry street, tripped | merrily down to St. Rose’s Church and there the matrimonial knot was tied { by Rev. Father O'Neill. Manning’s hasty plunge into the mat. rimonial sea will not come altogether | as a surprise to those who know him well, for it has been common gossip for some time that the king of the gold dust realm was smitten with the charms of the fair and winsome Miss Cannon. But then there was another whom, rumor had it, Manning regarded with more than common esteem, SO many of those who supposed they knew all will now open their eyes in surprise. Both Manning and his bride did all in their power to escape notoriety and whenever the talk of marriage was brought up both were wont to take on a mysterious expression and pass the subject off by giving evasive answers. | But what is to become of the other fair ong with whom the dashing miner was formerly infatuated?

Wreckage of the Vessel Is Found at the Mouth : of River. | I!Yakutat Indians Patrol the Beach for Bodies and Have Already Found Man’s Coat and Piece of Mast. e o SEATTLE, Wash., Nov. 22.—A special 5 | dispatch to the Post-Intelligencer from | | Juneau, Alaska, announces that J.| Bent, a passenger on the steamer Ex-| celsior, arriving to-day reports that a mass of wreckage from the steamer Discovery was washed ashore at the, mouth of Seal River, thirty miles below | | Yakutat. 4 | Bent’s information makes it practi- cally certain that the Discovery is lost | and leaves little hope for either pas- sengers or crew. It is believed in fact that everybody on board perished. Th'e‘ wreckage found, Bent says, consists of | pieces of lifeboats, life preservers and | large pieces of her hull. He states that | a terrific storm prevailed for a week| | prior to November 16, on which date he | boarded the Excelsior at Yakutat, hav- | ing walked 90 miles from Seal River to| catch the steamer. The Yakutat Indians were watching the beach for bodies and they claim to have | found a large piece of mast and a man’s | coat. | " The number of people aboard the Dis- | covery, passengers and crew, is esti-| mated at thirty. The vessel left Yaku- | tat October 24, according to the offi- | cers of thé steamer Nome City, and was never seen after that. She is believed | to have encountered a storm which sim- | ply broke her to pieces, the disaster oc- | | | | curring probably within taventy-four hours after she left Yakutat. | The Discovery was built at Port | Townsend in 1898 for the Puget Sound { trade. She had been in the Nome traf- fic for the last three years. | Of the men known to have been on board the Discovery, Captain M. R.| Waiters was born in New York State | |38 years ago and came here eighteen years ago. He has a wife and five boys | |in Port Townsend. Captain Walters | | was interested in the schooners Frank ! W. Howe and Vance of Port Townsend | and owns a fine dairy farm in Jefferson | | County. He is also one of the stock- | | holders of the American Tug Boat | Company of Everett and went north as manager for the company. Captain J. H. McGrath, master of the Discovery, was until last yeer with the | survey steamer Patterson. | Eawara Ford, first officer, 1s a brother | of Captain Ford of the steamship Fa- rallon. Guy Welford, chief engineer, lives at Everett, where, just prior to starting north this year, he was married. He is |36 years of age and for a number of vears engineer of the revenue launch | Guard, stationed at Port Townsend. Edward Vansice, purser, is a native ! of New York State and came to Port Townsend in 1887. He is 40.years of age. | William Dangerfield, steward, has been a resident of Port Townsend for four years. A Robert Carlson, deck hand, has been | in the employ of the company for the past three years and was aboard the steamer Elmore for three seasons in northern waters. Albert Kiseell, who was making the trip down as a waiter, is a son of N. J. Kissell of Port Townsend, & prominent real estate man. | Other members of the crew that are | known are Henry Price, second engi- | | neer, of Everett, and Willlam ‘Shady, | fireman, of Everett. e STORM ON NORTH SEA CAUSES MANY WRECKS BERLIN, Nov. 22.—Communication | by telegraph, particularly west of Han- over, has been interrupted by a gen- eral storm. All of Western Europe is at present only indirectly connected | with Berlin. At Frankfort-on-the-Main all street car traffic has been stopped and trees have been uprooted. A new, four-story building has been demiol- ished at Chemnitz. A tug sank at Em- den, one man being drowned. Several lighters were sunk on the River Ems, and it is believed that numerous lives have been lost. Seven passengers were seriously injured by the derailing of a train at Seehausen. Many shipwrecks in the North Sea are reported. The Hamburg-American line steamer’ Deutschland broke adrift at Cuxhaven and sustained extensive damages. —_————— Devote more time to making the home bright, beautiful and clean.

Attacked With a Knife. Julien Bonetti was arrested last evening by Patrolmen Joy and Flynn and booked at the City Prison on a | charge of assault with a deadly weap- on. Ponetti is accused by F. Focada, an employe of the Western Sugar Re- finery, of having attempted to kill him with a knife. According to the story | told by Focada, he was walking up | Montgomery street on his return from work when he heard Bonetti using vile | and obscene language in the presence | of a lady who was passing. He walked up to Bonetti and asked him'to desist. | Instead of complying with the request | Bonetti whipped out a large knife and | made a savage lunge at Focada. 'The | men fell to the sidewalk during the ‘ struggle, and the latter escaped with a few scratches on the face. The officers arrived on the scene at this juncture, | but Bonetti refused to submit quietly to arrest, and it became ngcessary for Patrolman Flynn to use his club before | the refractory prisoner would consent . to proceed quietly to the Hall of Jus-, , tice. NOVEMBER 23, 1903 ETING AUN il DOWN Youth’s Career as Rob- ber Lasts but Half an Hour. Martin Noone Holds Up Men and Is Soon Cap- tured. ey iR Ak Snaps Revolver, When Cornered, at Deputy Sheriff Moffat and Surrenders When Latter Fires a Shot. i i SR Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway,' Nov. 23. A young Oakland man started out to be a footpad at an early hour this | morning and an exciting half hour, during which two citizens yielded up | their coin, a deputy sheriff’s pistol barked once and the police came hur- rying in answer to a telephone alarm, | saw the beginning and the end of the youth's career of crime. The footpad was captured by the ! men he had robbefl, the deputy sheriff | and his brother after a short chase. He said his name was Martin Noone and | that he lived at 1124 Campbell street. Shortly after midnight Frank Fer- guson, a . firethan employed by the| Southern Pacific Company and living! at 1124 Chestnut street, and Harry Or- | bell, a plumber residing at 1068 Kirk- | ham street,. were on their way home, when they saw a man leaning against | a building at the corner of Twelfth and Linden streets. He was smoking a cigarette and suddenly bounded for- ! ward with /a demand that Ferguson | and Orbell throw up their hands, at the same tiie pointing a revolver at them. | Ferguson resisted, when the footpad snapped his revolver, but the cart- ridge failed to explode. Ferguson, see- ing the footpad meant business, gave him $1 25, all the money he had in his possession, ‘and Orbell handed over | $1 50. The robber then ran along Lin- den street and was followed by the two men, who were joined by Deptuy Sheriff Moffat and his brother, M. Mof- fat. The brother of the deputy proved a fast sprinter, and he ran the footpad down in a vacant lot a block away and held him gt bay till the others ran up. Again the desperate young man tried to shoot, and again his revolver only snapped. i Then Deputy Sheriff Moffat fired a | shot at the footpad. The latter threw | away his useless revolver and surren- | dered. | The noise of the chase awakened many peobple in the neighborhood, and a telephone message was sent to the police station. A number of policemen | arrived on the scene as the capture was made. | R & BTN e VIENNA, Nov. 22.—Count Tisza, the Hungarian Premier, arrived in Vienna to- day and was received in audience by Em- | good voice one of them throws away, | | sketch, ~\FOOTPAD'S ~ |GEORGIA MAGNET | — I THE ORPHELN James M. Brophy Is Warmly Greeted at the California. prad SR “At the Old Cross Roads” Makes Great Hit Before Crowded House. It is not often that one comes away yawning from the Orpheum, but there’'s a good chance this week. With the ex- ception of Annie Abbott, the “little Georgia magnet,” a clever but snipped- off acrobatic turn by the three Zolars and some good cooning by the Brittons the bill is as dull as one gets in the Or- pheum grab-bag. The “little Georgia magnet,” how- ever, is worth standing the rest for. She is the kind of thing useful to have round When you want the piano moved or your house shifted a block or two. Miss Abbott is a small person, in short, of rather extraordinary gifts. She first persuades a committee to straggle on the platform by telling it that the Czar of Russia and the King of England have done the same thing before them —though they didn't all speak at once last night in spite of the inducement. Once on, however, there was fun in plenty. One, two, five, ten of the men pitted their strength against the little woman, only to meet absurd defeat.| First she held a chair in the air be-| tween her open palms, and three men tried and failed to drag it to the ground. The same thing happened when | the little Georgian permitted a man to hold the chair in the same fashion while she placed her hands over his. A simple stick, four or five feet long, was also used to do the same trick, with| the same result. Mere man got it again when Miss Abbott successfully defied the whole committee to push her to the wall, against which she had placed her| hands, nine men, one behind the other, | straining every muscle in the, effort. | Then the little lady showed them that | she could just as easily make them (Ini what she pleased, as prevent them do- | ing what they pleased. She allowed | them to take the beforementioned rod, put all their hands on top of it, put a| man on top of that, and then carried | off the stick, the man and the commit- | | tee to the other side of the stage as easily as a sunshade. shows not the slightest her extraordinary feats. | The Zolas, as before said, are clever | folk, and furnished one of the neatest | and newest acts lately seen here in the | acrobatic line. The Brittons gre also | worth while, and if Bryant and Saville | would keep to their quicksilvery horn-| piping on the fiddle, and to using the| | Miss Abbott| fatigue after | there would be another good number. | Searl and Violet Allen have a poor| the Arminos Tito quartet do some well dressed and stupid dane- ing. Alice Kearney renders “A Stolen Kiss.” The biograph is worth waiting| for. BLANCHE PARTINGTON. | >R i After an absence of two and a half years from this city, James M.

Aiston’s presenta- | tion of “At the Old Cross Roads.” The greeting extended the popular actor was spontaneous and his entrance speech was interrupted for several mo- | ments by applause. There were others in the company that shared the warm | reception. Estha Willlams, Jane Cor- | coran and Julia Blanc are all former San Franciscans, and at the end of the second act the entire stage was spread with handsome floral tokens. The Southern melodrama scored a de- | cided hit with the large first night au-: dience. Its story of love, slavery and intrigue elicited the old sympathy and welcome, and the popularity of Ithe plot and lines has not grown less. From Miss Williams, in the leading role of Parepa, an octo- roon, to the slaves and members of the jury the cast is of the highest or- | der. It is an aggregation of talent that does credit to the play. -Miss Williams is a star in her character and portrays it with originality and power. In the scene of the murder, where restraint is | cast off and the silence of years springs | into fury, she evinces her ability and brings out the thorough melodrama.

From the time of his ap- pearance until he got killed in the | fourth act he had the interest of the | audience and all pronounced his work | well done” Mildred Hyland as Madge | Thornton, the villain’s favorite daugh- ter, and Owen McCormack as Tom Martin won favor for ekcellent acting. | The twelve others in the cast are all | deserving of praise. The male quartet in the second act was encored several | times and the singers were obliged to give five selections before the audience would allow the play to proceed. —_———— Cavanagh Files an Answer.
