Several vs ago his anchors down in the bay got afoul h other and he could mot unmcor ship. Yesterday, the mudhooks at last clear, he made preparations for another start. This time it was the members of the new crew that fouled. About half of the men are A, B.'s and of course know the rude touch of a marlin spike from the soft caress of a kid glove, and the | rest know more about sawmills and broncos than of & reef-tackle. The ‘‘farmers’” con- cluded that the princely and luxurious life of the sallor as pictured by the water front board- ing-house runners was too rich for their sim- ple tastes and decided to go ashore and home. The able-bodied portion of the crew, who know that such inexperienced shipmates make double work for the experienced, abetted the spirit of desertion by threatening to break the rustic heads the moment they all got to sea, if not before. So insubordination is rampant on board the Alice A. Leigh and she cannot get away tor Newcastle. AR s B Rough Weather at Horn. that gets up from the Every vessel Horn tells of rough weather and high rolling seas | around that tempestuous point. The big steamer California, which recently arrived here logged seven days of fierce warfare with Cape Horn storm, and the British ship St don, Captain Patterson, 134 days from Swansea, encountered the same gale, and for a week fought her way through and out of the stormy zome. The French bark La Pelier, which arrived in port 148 days from Hamburg, brings the same re- port of weather at the Horn. The athdon spoke the French Madeline October , bound for San Francisco.

A change took place in the list of overdue vessels yesterday. Two arrived tardily, and a new name was added to the number of dc- lays. The Russian ship Dorothea has arrived «at Falmouth and the British bark Shakespeare came into Barbadoes. The new overdue is the German ghip Serene, from Liverpool to Vai- paraiso. She is out 133 days, and the rein- | surance is 10 per cent. The other vessels are the schooner Advance, 68 days from Mississ- | 1ppt to Venesuela, 35 per cent, and the ehip | Gaetano Casabona, from Sidney to Table Bay, | out 110 days, 5 per cent. b M Fell From Aloft.

Rigdon was had yesterday morn- | ing in Judge Murasky's department, | and the Judge announced that he' would decide to-morrow as to the ad- ! missibility of the Chicago affidavits as evidence tending to relieve Rigdon from responsibility in the transaction | relating to the Smith ticket. Attorney | Shortridge said that if the affladvits | were not admitted he would take depo- sitlons of the Chicago witnesses. Three witnesses were put on the | | stand by Mr. Shortridge yesterday for the purpose of proving that the railroad | companies depart from the printed re- | strictions on their tickets, and that their own agents advise purchasers to sell the unused portions of tickets to | other persons. Attorney Foshay Wal- on this line. | John Webber testified that on August | 27, at Chicago, he went to the Chicago and Northwesetrn office to buy tickets to San Francisco. He told the agent that he thought he would wait until the middle of September and take ad- vantage of the cheap excursion rates. | The agent, he says, urged him to buy the excursion tickets then and told | him that he could sell the return por- tlons here. In order that it might not be difficult to counterfeit his name, | he was advised, he said, to sign “J. ‘Webb,” which he did. He also signed for his wife and son. Mr. Walker here admitted that it was’the common prac- tice for members of families to sign | for others in a family for whom tick- ets were bought. Thereupon Mr. Shortridge declared that the Smith | ticket was signed in Chicago by some one authorized by Smith’s sister to sign his name. Rudolph Holzhausen of St. Louis had | a similar experience. He went to the | Burlington office at St. Louis, intend- | ing to buy a one-way ticket to San| Francisco. The agent induced him to | buy a round-trip excursion ticket, tell- , ing him that it would be easy to dis- | pose of the return portion here. Holz- hausen signed the ticket “R. Holz.” He decided to return to St. Louis and took the ticket to the Southern Pacific office at New Montgomery street to have it | validated, but the agent refused to val- | idate it, giving as his excuse that he believed Holzhausen was going to sell | it to a broker. | The witness made several efforts, and finally the agent told him he would fix the ticket so that if he wanted to | 8o to St. Louis the ticket would be | handed to the conductor when he got on the train, “I declined to be sent | that way,” sald Holzhausen. Mr. | Shortridge accompanied him to the office on one occasion, and the agent | again declined to validate the paste- | board. 2 L. F. Beyreiss, the validating official, was called and testified that he had | refused to validate the ticket as stated, | except under the condition that Holz- hausen should first board the train and | the ticket should be handed to the con- | ductor. | —_————— INTERESTING BAZAAR | { OPENS AUSPICIOUSLY | Ladies of Bethlehem Congregational | i Church Preside Over Very Pret- | tily Decorated Booths.

Coroner Leland held an inquest yes- | terday upon the body of Ida Allsop, a 14-year-old girl. Ida died in this| city on September 6 from injuries re- ceived in an accident at Tacoma while “looping the loop” inside a hol- low sphere. Mrs. M. Allsop of 217 Harriet street, mother of the girl, testified that she had leased her daughter to J. Collins for a season of six weeks in acrobatic performances. The mother was to receive $§2 for each perform- ance, but Collins had not paid her anything. She had been informed | that the accident happened at the | Mardi-gras grounds in Tacoma through neglect of the men whose duty it was to catch in a net the sphere containing the child after the performance of the loop. The sphere missed the net and fell about ten feet, jarring the girl's spine.

School Directors Boyle and Altmann of the Board of Education made a joint visit to the cosmopolitan schools yesterday afternoon, and as a result of their visit will recommend that a separate class be started for the in- struction of grown Italian children who are not able to speak English. The law provides that scholars in the first grade primary may only stay in that grade a year. This places at a disadvantage many Italian children who come to this country at the age of nine or ten and enter the primary grades with American children of five or six years of age. A proposition will also be submitted to the board to al- low children to remain a year and a half in the first primary grade if necessary. In some of the schools fully 90 per cent of the pupils are of Italian parentage.
