When close to the Meadows an alarm of fire was givery, At that time I was in I jumped down to the deck and gave Immedlate orders for fighting the fire. The fire drill 3 was sounded and the crew of the boat, numbering twenty-three men, worked like nailers to get water on to that part of the boat that was burning. “The fire was under the forward boilers on the port side, as I made it out in the excitement. My men were exerting their efforts to keep the pas- sengers -from jumping. The fire was gaining every instant and the cries of people burning to death could be heard above every other discordant sound. “I got the boat under way for North place to attempt to land. The boat was driven on under full speed and pulled up sideways to the shore of the island. “Many had jumped prior to this. Many were jumping every instant. “My pilots, Edward Van Wart and Fdward M. Weaver, were doing every- thing to get safely toward shore and Engineer B. F. Conklin remained in the hold. Mate Edward Flannigan had charge of the fire brigade, but when the fire spread over all we had to get off the boat. My hat was burning when I jumped, and I was pulled out of the water and hauled up on shore under a tree before I remembered what had occurred.” STAGE TEMPEST WRECKS SINGER Miss Flora Redledge, Chosen Annabel in “Robin Hood™ at the Tivoli, Taken Off CHAMPIONS MISS ¢ During the Rehearsal She Speaks Out Her Mind and Has Her Contract Canceled EFFON LREN it The Tiv, stage tempests have another singer, and the lost rds have blown away in shreds of went down and yester- d - and comrade, Miss who had cast in place to wart ork as shown facto; in the rehears. but the singer avers in 1 octaves that her f f ndship and C ionship i Miss Sefton is threefold reason of her dis- the Tivoli powers-that-be ece of her mind, and Miss ippi will sing Apnabel in next week.

ELEVATOR BOY INHALES GAS Be Demented, Hires a Room and Kills Himself FINDS THE WORLD COLD Leaves a Despondent Note in Which He Say Conscience Smites Him Iid ey C. Bonis, landlord of the rooming- house at 435 Fourth street, saw a news- paper yesterday morning stuffed under the door of one of the rooms and, suspecting something wrong, forced an entrance and found Freder- ick Mitchell dead in bed with the gas | burner half opened and the room full of gas. Mitchell was 19 years old, and up to last Wednesday had been em- ployed as elevator boy with Hoffman, Rothchild & Co. A note in Mitchell's handwriting was found in the room. No money was found in his pockets, he having paid his last quarter of a dollar for the rent on the preceding evening. The lad lived with his brother-jn- law and his sister, Mrs. W. S. Dent at 2002 Pine street. He left his work voluntarily last Wednesday after in- forming his employers that he was sick and was going home. He went home on Friday night and left on Saturday morning without letting his relatives know that he was not working. The note is not addressed and reads as fol- lows: I am tired of life. I beg that you (that is whoever has the say of these matters) will not try to find out who I am, because the blow will be a hard ome on those I love, May God bless them all and forgive me. My life has be: a lonely ome, and I think I am better out of ghe world than in it. Dispose of my remains o1 lo whatever you want with them. But re- member my last wish and keep it. This Is #uch a cold, cheerless world for me. I cannot face those whom 1 wronged, as my conscience smites me, but I hope I am forgiven. M. home was a good ome, but I grew so restle: 1 cannot help it. Oh, how my heart aches I thank those who were so kind to me, but L must end this. Good-by. Mitchell left work in a similar way some time ago and was absent several days. during which he wandered about the streets. It is believed that he was demented at times. Thomas Mitchell, the boy's father, is an attache of the Sheriff's office. ————— Tinners Still on Strike. SAN JOSE, June 15.—Local tinners are still holding out for $4 a day.

SCIENTIFIC TURTLE HUNTING EXPEDITION A Party of State University Profes- sors Are to Visit the Galapagos Islands.

C. Butler. The only rational way to cure dyspep- sia is to remove the catarrh. Peruna cures catarrh. Peruna does not produce artificial digestion. It cures catarrh and leaves the stomach to perform digestion in a natural way. This is vastly better and safer than resorting to artificial methods. Peruna has cured more cases of dys- pepsia than all other remedies combined, simply because it cures catarrh wherever located. If catarrh is located in the head, Peruna cures ft. If catarrh has fastened itself in the throat or bronchial tubes, Peruna cures it. When catarrh becomes settled in the stomach, Peruna cures it, as well in this location as in any other. Peruna is not simply a remedy for dyspepsia. Peruna is a catarrh remedy. Peruna_cures dyspepsia because it is generally dependent upon catarrh. ‘women were unconscious.
