DANGEROUSLY INJURED VICTIM OF STREET CAR ACCIDENT ON LARKIN STREET LAST NIGHT. > + Grip Hits Bumper With Great Force. In an accident to a Larkin street car last njght two women were seriously in- jured, a lttle girl narrowly escaped death, and several men who were riding on the dummy escaped with —minor scratches. The accident oceurred -at 9:15 last night ag car No. 3 and dummy No. 6 of the Polk and Larkin streets line ap- proached the Sutter street crossing at Polk street. It was caused by the failure of the grip to release the cable as the car approached the crossing, and the rapidly moving cable threw the car full speed against a bumper in the cable slot, bringing the vehicle to a sudden stop, As a result of the accident, Mrs. Eiugene Sullivan lies dangerously hurt at her home at 1814 Larkin street, and Mrs. Mary Burng is 111 from shock and hysteria at 701 Web- ster street. In hddition to shéck Mrs. Burns - complained of a wrenched - back and a physician was summoned to attend her. Mrs. Sullivan’s injuries are of a serious nature and but for a thick coll of hair at the back of her head she would have been fatally hurt. She was thrown from the car and when picked up was un- conscious and afterward became deliri- ous. Her husband, who was on the car at the time and who was also bruised and cut, placed her in a cab and she was taken home instead of to the Central Emergency Hospital. The Injuries sustained by Mrs. Burns were caused by her successful attempt to rescue her 15-year-old daughter, Alice, who was also on the car. The little girl ‘was. scated on the front. of the dummy ‘while her mother was at the side. When the gripman lost control and the car be- gan its race toward the crossing Mrs, Burns hastily caught her daughter and held ‘on to’the iron upright. car stopped suddenly the little .girl was thrown forward toward the dashboard and the mother was swept off her feet by -the shock but managed to stay on the car. Patrolmen Maurice O'Dowd and D. Reavis soon arrived and began to aid those who were injured. Almost before the po- | lice were on the scene, the railway com- | pany had its employes and doctors giving aid. to the victim§ and ascertaining. the extent of their injurles. Offers of cabs and hospital service were freely made, | but in all instances were refused. Gripman Fffilk Nickel was in charge of the dummy. He says he brought the car | to a full stop as is the custom when it ap- proaches a crossing. When the signal ‘was received from Conductor Willlam Sellman to go' ahead, he clutched the cable to get up speed enough to enable the car and dummy to make the crossing, but when he attempted to release the | grip from the cable, the release lever failed to respond. car shot ahead| until it hit the bumper that protects the Sutter street cable and then stopped with great suddenness like a snap of a whip.

The Vedanta Soclety dedicated its new auditorium, 2115 Filbert street last even- ing before a large audience of members | and friends of the soclety. A special pro- i gramme was arranged for the occasion, jand after the opening address by C. F. | Peterson, president of the society for San Francisco, and several gelections of music | and prayer, Swami Trigunatita dedicated the auditorium, with a prayer, to the pub- lic at large. After the dedication Swami Trigunatita addressed ‘the audience on “What Is Vedanta?’ which proved to be |a very interesting subject. The Vedanta Soclety is a mission under the auspices of the Belur Math of India, and was first formed in Union-square Hall in this city on April 14, 1900. It has grown steadily from that time, until now it has over sixty active members. The temple just dedicated is the first of its kind in America, although tne society has branches in New York and Los Angeles. During the course of his address Swami Trigunatita said in part: Vedanta is the name of a religion and phi- losophy based on the Vedas—the earliest and the greatest scriptures of the gryans, the most | ancient forefathers of the human race, It is a religion and philokophy most rationally de- | voted to the truth and the practical knowledge | of the self and of our relation to the world. It | is very liberal and very easy for all classes of people, for ali phases of life. It Is so liberal | and easy that no one need depend on any par- | ticular church or society, views or doctrines, book or Bible. -No matiér where you are, no matter to what church. or faith you belong, | start from where you “are, ‘Consult your own self. | Grow by your own nature. “Thou art that, says. the Vedanta, spirit.is within you. You are in him. you are one. Shake Gff all fear, super | and prejudices. Shake off all weakness { on your own feet; realize your own sel ize your true mature—your. divine nature; and I'say 1n loud trumpet voice, *‘He and I are one.” | And thus be free.

SUBMERCES PA Newly Married Couple Speak First Cross Words as the Result of Ducking OVERTAKES Fond Papas Forced to Wade Out to Pick Up Their Dripping Little Ones B T They had come down from up the coun- try and were spending the first Sunday of their married life in San Francisco. To them everything was beautiful and happy in the world. In the afternoon they went to the Cliff House 'to see the seals and to eat real clam chowder. The beach was attractive after the visit to the little wagon-clam-chowder-house and they found a cozy spot behind a great rock. Pfesent surroundings were forgotten in their bliss of first married life and they | cared not what the crowd around them | said or did. So absorbed in each other did they become that they did not notice the crowd flee suddenly toward the higher ground. Neither did they hear the roar of the wave that came bounding in. There was a sudden splash, a woman's scream, an expletive that sounded above the water,. and the pair were completely submerged by a tremendous wave that had suddenly been driven in. Dripping, | they appeared, this time unhappily mind- | ful of the smiles of the crowd. “George,” she whimpered, you take me there?” He looked at her angrily as they hur- ried for a car. It was the first cross word since their marriage. “D—m the ocean,” he answered. This same wave caught a score more of pleasure seekers on the beach. It| came quite suddenly and many were un: able to escape before they were caught. It washed over several little children on shore and papas were compelled to rush out into the water to pick up thefr little ones. No one was hurt. Yesterday was a beautiful day at the park and beach. Thousands took advan- tage cf the weather and zot their outing. The beach drive was popular, horses and automebiles vying with each other for right of way. There were no accidents either at Golden Gate Park or the beach. New color pictures by Professor Wi liam Harring have been hung in the Park Museum... They are the gift of J. L. Bardwell. They attracted much atten- tion. Robert Kendall, an English salesman, was arrested during the afternoon by T. J. Duggan for blockading the entrance to a beach car. TOUCHING EULOGY OF BELOVED DEAD Dr. Wicher Honors the Mem- ory of Dr. John S. MacIntosh. A touching eulogy in memory of the Rev. John 8. MacIntosh, D. D., late president of San Francisco Theological Seminary, was spoken from the pulpit of the First Presbyterian Church, Van Ness avenue, /at yesterday morning’s service by Professor A. Wicher, D. D., a member of the seminary faculty. In part Dr. Wicher said: The death of our revered president has stunned us by its suddenness. We do not yet know what we have lost; we cannot yet measure his greatness. We know indeed that a great man is gone, but we do not vet realize it; and so out of our grief we copnot vet speak the word of appreciation which we would like to speak. I would praise our departed president for his broad . scholarship, his evangelical plety, his simple directness, his generous hospitality and his steadfast friendship. His was no dead and dry theology dissected into definitions and numerals, but a vital and vivifying faith in the living Christ, the Son of the living God. He believed with a pas- slonate conviction in the power of the Gospel of Jesus to meet the needs, to satisfy the longings and to assuage the SOrrows of man- kind. To this end he gave himself with tre- mendous energy to the promotion of the work of_evangelism, No one can tell how many friends have been won for our beloved seminary through the cordial spontaneity of our late president's open-heartedness, There was given unto him pre—minently “tha gift of goodfellowship. His great intellect will no longer be exer- clsed upon the perplexing problems of our time. His great volce will no more be heard in denunciation of wrong and In‘loving =x- hortation to righteousne: His great heart will no longer throb In sympathy with the world’s sorrows.+ but the- inheritance of the memory of his iife and words Is our precious possession for ever. The funeral, which wijl be attended by friends of the departed from all over the State, will take place at 1:30 this afternoon from the San Francisco Theo- logical Seminary Chapel, San Anselmo. —_———————— YOUNG PATTERN-MAKER FOUND DEAD WITH GAS TURNED ON CHILDREN “why did | Alfred Sehmitt May Have Committed Suicide, buts Facts Point to Theory of Accident.

SHODTS HORSE IND HINSELF Rich Man Injures the Animal and Then Takes His Own Life Near Colorado Springs Sty Sw s Special Dispatch to The Call COLORADO SPKINGS, Jan. T7—E. Crane Wilson, a member of the shirt manufacturing firm of Wilson Brothers of Chicago, committed suicide this afternoon by shooting himself througn the head with a revolver at a lonely spot on the prairie eight miles east ot this city. Do- mestic troubles evidently caused the suicide. The horse which Wilson rode | from this city to the scene of the tragedy. a thoroughbred single-tooter, whicn he had purchased recently for 30, was shot | in the neck below the ear by its master before the latter shot himself. Wilson left the Alta Vista Hotel, where | he had been stopping for the last eighteen months, about 2:30 o’clock this afternoon, called at the Canyon stables, and secur- ing his horse, said he was going out for a ride. At 5:30 this evening two young men of this city, returning from a drive, came upon Wilson's body. Beside it was his horse, suffering greatly, but unwilling to leave the spot. A coursing hound be- longing to the stable, which had been taken along by Wilson, was baying dis- mally, his barks attracting the young men to the scene. They hurried to a house con- taining a telephone and notified the Cor- oner. The latter is convinced, after an investigation, that Wilson killed himseit. Wilson’s 35-caliber revolver was found on the ground beneath his right hand with but two cartridges fired and three loaded. His gold watch and chain and all his money were missing, but a pearl shirt stud and pearl cuff buttons were still on the body. It is believed that Wilson should have had something over $100 in cash on his per- son, as he had paid his hotel bill yester- day with a check for $150, receiving $100 in_change. This evening a woman, Whose name has not been learned, called at the hotel where Wilson had been stopping and asked for him. She said he had made an appointment to dine with her and she was greatly disturbed at not being able to find him. It- is' understood that Wilson came here to get a ‘divorce. His wife is in Chicago. Wilson was 86lyears old and Is said to have been a millionaire. His place of business was at 332-338 Fifth avenue, Chi- cago. His brother, H. R. Wilson, lives in Hyde Park. CHICAGO, Jan, 7.—E.'C. Wilson was for many years a well known business man of this city, but for the past four years has lived in Colorado, having gone there for his health. At the time of his death he was a stockholder in the com- pany of Wilson Brothers. His family still occupies the homestead at 4613 Drexel boulevard, this city. GIIAVES WANTED IN SEATTLE FOR DEFRAUDING A WOMAN Borrows Diamond Rings From Her and Returns Them to Her With Stomes. J. E.
