Little light was cast to-day on the mystery surrounding the death of aged Jeremiah Denehy, whose body was found yesterday in the shallow water at the foot of a cliff, a few hundred feet from Vallejo Junction, by J Peterson, superintendent of the Port Costa Lumber Company. After a careful investigation, however, Sheriff Veale expresses the belief that Denehy mi hig footing in the dark, and feil over the cliff to his death, and this theory is borne out by the fact that there were no evidences of robbery. When the body was examined to-day it was found that the head was badly cut S TWO LIC] Jan 3 Berkeley -9 and bruised, the nose broken, and the wa Chap- | skull fractured, but all these wounds i ne might have been inflicted either by & blowg from gome blunt instrument, or by contact with sharp rocks in the fall down the cliff.

SAN JOSE, Jan. 26—The body of H. F. Llewellyn, employed for many years by the Btanford estate as a gardener, was discovered this evening in the San Fran- clsquito Creek near Palo Alto. Llewellyn had apparently . fallen from a bridge which stands a short distance away and been drowned before help’ could reach him. A watch in his pocket had stopped at 12 o’clock and it is probable that he was returning home at that hour when the accident occurred. The body was found by Homer Wheelon, a Stanford student.

Hose, an elderly man who conducts a small grocery at Fifty-fitth and Lowell streets, gave bat- tle to him, and despite the fact that he wrs armed and masked, he fled before the onslaught of his intended victim, Hose was gitting with his wife in the grocery, reading an evening/ paper, shortly after 8 o'clock, when a young man of medium height, wearing a soiled plece of muslin as a mask, entered. The intruder carrled a revolver, which he pointed at Mr. and Mrs. Hose, demand- ing that they throw up their hands. In- stead of obeying the command Hose grabbed for the weapon and a desperaté struggle ensued. The highwayman, how- ever, was younger and stronger than his intended victim and he broke away from the older man’s grasp and fled. Hose fol- lowed him for a short distance, but soon realized that the chase was useless and returned and notified the police by tele- phone. There were several hundred dol- lars in the safe of the grocery, —————— T WILL DISCUSS ALUMNI HALL.

Sk WOREN DI N HOTEL FRE LOWELL, Mass, Jan. 27.—At least six persons lost their lives in a fire which rartly destroyed the Richardson Hotel in this city early this morning. The fire started a few minutes before 2 o'clock and the flames rapidly communicated to vari- ous parts of the building. A large num- ber of guests were in the hotel, and those who were in the upper part of the build- ing had little chance to escape by the stairways. The firemen at 2:30 o'clock found the bodles of six women on the top floor of the hotel. ‘Within half an hour after the fire broke out more than twenty injured had been removed to St. John's Hospital PRINCESS ANSWERS CALL,0F THE WILD RENO, Jan. 26.—A touch of nature that makes the world akin was witnessed yes- terday morning when Princess Chinguilla, the Cheyenne Indian mald, playing at a local theater, discarded the habiliments of civilization and garbed as Mahala went out among the Plutes. It was like the ““Call of the Wild,” and had the com- panions been her own tribesmen, it is not certain that she would have come back at all. As it was, her manager spent a nervous few hours and was greatly re- lleved when she returned. The restraints of convention were for the time abandoned and her education was forgotten, For the first time in many years she was able to speak the tongue she first heard when strapped to the broad back of an Indlan mother. The Indian girl talked 1ast night about her escapade and laughed to think how happy she bad been. “I am an Indiany'’ *she said, “and T like all Indians. I wanted to see my people here and so I went.” Chinquilla is a full blooded Cheyenne Indian princess and has been highly edu- cated. She speaks the English language very fluently and has adopted the cus- toms of the whites in every respect. e BISHOP O’CONNELL HONORED BY POPE ROME, Jan. 26.—The Pope to-day signed the papers appointing the Rt.

Rev. W. H. O’Connell, Bishop of Portland, Me., to be coadjutor to Archbishop Willlams, has been antlcipated in this city and Portland, where the Bishop is held in high esteem. Bishop O'Conneil’s advancement in the church has been unusually rapid. He is but 46 years of age, and nine years ago was assistant priest in 8t. Joseph's Par- ish, this city. He was called from that position to the rectorship of the American College at Rome in 1897, and in 1001 was elevated to the bishopric, being made head of the diocese of Maine. At the close of the Russo-Japanese war Bishop ©O’'Connell was sent to Japan on a special mission by Pope Plus. The position of coadjutor to the Archbishop of Boston has been agitated for the last fifteen years owing to the age of Archbishop ‘Willlams, who is now 83 years old.

Peter's marital troubles began four years ago, when he and Nis wife, Minnie, ‘were living in Chicago. They were Rappy, he says, until Nicholas Tampakes came into. their lives. Nicholas had known them only a short while Whe one day he suddenly disappeared. Mrs. Pappas disappeared with him, according to the husband, but later she returned and all was forgiven. Then r brought his wife to Qakland In the hope that would forget Nicholas. Not only did she forget Nicholas, but gshe met his cousin, James, who conducted a restaurant at 8§73 Broadway, and beeame so infatuated with him, according to her husband, that she has gone with him to parts unknown. They left three days ago. This Is Pappas’ description of his missing wife: Age, 33 years; height, ¢ feet 11 Inches; weight, 120 pounds; complexion, dark.

The deserted husband followed the pair to a hotel on Franklin street, .and, confronting them, demand- ed that his wife return to him. Tampakes, enraged by the demand of the husband, thrust the woman into a room and, drawing a revolver, swore that he would end 'the trouble right there. Pappas, being unarmed, fled from the house. The angry restaurang owner pursued him for nearly a block, twice, according to- Pappas, trying to discharge the weapon, which missed fire. Pappas says he will have Tam- pakes arrested to-morrow. ‘ MORE DIPLOMAS ARE CIVEN 00T Yesterday was another busy day in the various grammar schools through- out: the city, hundreds of bright pupils recelving their diplomas entitling them to enter the high school.

Kennedy, one of the pest Xnown mining engineers in this city and a well-known business man, was to-day instantly crushed to death, 1200 feet underground in the Pittsmont mine, while engaged in.measuring the distance of a drift.

WATERSPOUT BARELY ' MISSES A STEAMER HONOLULU, Jan. 20.—That the steam- er Claudine was not sunk by a huge waterspout off the coast of Hawali this week is remarkable. The great volume of water was heading directly for the steamer, when the course of the vessel was changed in time to avold the danger and permit the whirling mass of water to pass on the lee side of her. The col- umn seemed to reach from the sea to the sky. At the base the mass of waves seemed to be 200 feet in diameter and at the top to branch out like a puge flower. The center of the column of whirling water was narrower in dlameter than the base and top. The upper part of the top clouded a large part of the sky, for the vapor was dispersed by the winds. ‘When the waterspout was first seen it was about four miles to the north- west of the steamer. but was coming on toward her port bow. It looked as 1f the spout would certainly strike the The stalt of investigators will be, charge of the sclentific | BEFORE DEATH were espe- vessel.
