Mr. Evans was taken ill while on a vacation trip at Lowrey, Tehama County. He returned in poor health, and after a few days’ stay at his home in this city went to the hospital. His condition seemed to be satisfactory un- til yesterday, when his heart gave way. Among the young men of promise and marked ability in his profession the deceased attorney occupied a high place.

He was admit- ted to practice in 1896. Three months ago Mr. Evans- established himself with Court Commissioner Clarence Crowell, A. P. Leach and John de Lancey in his law work. In the literary fleld Mr. Evans had displayed a strong bent for short story writing. His work has appeared in a number of magazines, including McClure's, the Century, Scribner’s, Sunset, Out West, Western Field and the Overland. Outdoor life attracted him and much of his writing was in the portrayal of Western scenes. Mr. Evans was re-elected to the Board of Library Trustees at the last munici- pal election. He was active in the af- fairs of that institution. He was a founder of the Unity Ciub and financial secretary of the First Unitarlan Church of this city. Mr. Evans was the son of Mr. and Mrs. James Evans, with whom he re- sided at 536 Twenty-second street. A brother, Fred Evans, also survives. Mr. Evans was 27 years old, a native of California. The funeral will be held Sunday afternoon at 2:30 o’clock from the Evans residence. L T S Death of Miss Hazel Hogan.

Dredger Pumps It Out of Buffalo Bayou, Which Is Being Made Into a Channel Box Is Believed to Contain .

The dredger is working just off the San Jacintc battle ground and for days dozens of Spanish muskets, thousands | of Minie balls and other relics of the flight, which were hurled into the stream by Santa Anna’s men in their hurry, have been pumped out. Yesterday a heavy object fell from the exhaust pipe. With a pickax, a workman pried it open, then picked it up and ran off, managing to escape, although pursued. Several of the Span- ish coins dropped from it. Santa Anna is known to have made way with two chests, each containing $12,000, by throwing them into the stream and treasure hunters have been at work for years trying to recover them. small e SUTTER-STREET CLUB WANTS UNDERGROUND WIRES ON ROAD Improvement Club Discusses Question and Will Take Matter Up at Next Regular Meeting. The Sutter-street Improvement Club asks that in event the present cable car system on that thoroughfare is changed to an electric system, that | the trolley wires be placed under- ground. It was decided at the meet- ing of the club yesterday afternoon that the question of underground wires was the issue the club should take up. W. H. Hazell, as fhe president of the club, suggested that matters that passed through the hands of the Board of Supervisors required time | and that there would be a question in- | volved regarding the curtailment of the present franchise, which gives the | privilege of conducting a cable sys- tem. - It is within the hopes of the club that there will be some scheme ad- vanced by the United Railways to put their system under electric control and enable the residents along Sutter street to have the protection that may be granted by underground wires. The club adopted a set of by-laws and a constitution that will govern all future actions. The document pro- vides that twelve members shall con- stitute a quorum and that all matters of vital interest shall be considered | and arrangements made by a board which shall include the president, vice president, secretary and treasurer. Circular letters are to be sent to all property owners on Sutterstreet in or- der to inform them that the club is in existence and that dues are $1 a month.” If the property owner is en- gaged in business that requires the ! use of a second floor along the thor- | oughfare he is only to be charged upon | the basis of 50 cents a month because | he has to pay additional rent and in- creased taxes. There is going to be another meet- ing of the club on Tuesday, June 14, at Golden Gate Hall. The by-laws passed yesterday will be read and fur- ther action agreed upon.
