A thrill went through the whole of the large congregation when in a =oft voice, full of emotion, the Bishop made reference to her as one having recelved the benefit of confirmation years ago. Simply he told of the pathetic scene of her and the other women on the wrecked Valencia'singing “Nearer My God, to Thee,” while facing death and eternity with the joy of a victory of | faith. | The full vested choir and congrega- tion sang beautiful hymns and the ser- vice throughout was intensely iinpres- sive.

He was ordered out of there when he told his troubles, and on reaching the Central Emergency Hos- pital found the place deserted by all save Dr. Magner, for the coming of the man had been heralded over the 'phone. Dr. Magner finally examined Marvin and felt convinced the latter was suf- fering from a mila attack of smallpox. The patient was taken to the pest house.

MANIAE CLINBS LIKE A HONKEY Crazy Man Dances on Roof and Leads Detectives a Chase on Crowded Street o AP R Barefooted and bareheaded, a maniac climbed the side of the Jockey Club building at Kearny and Market streets vesterday by means of a water pipe, and, descending by the same means, dashed down Kearny street through the crowd. He gave Detective Bell and an athletic citizen a desperate battle be- fore he was subdued and put into a patrol wagon. He gave his name as Lewis B. Wonack. The man had been seen in different sections of the city during the day, acting in a queer manner. He Invaded a fruit stand near Eourth and Market street early in the afternoon. Chat- tering llke an.immense monkey he seized a bunch of bananas and at- tempted to scale a telegraph pole. But the banana man was hot on the trail and the madman leaped on a Market- street car and escaped.” At Kearny and Union' Square avenue the desire to get back to antedeluvian days again selzed him. He stooped | down and removed his shoes. Before any one of the amazed bystanders could prevent him the maniac seized hold of the water pipe and was half way up the bullding. The crowd increased and watched the wild antics of the mad- | man until the arrival of Detective Bell. l When he decided that he had enough of the roof garden the maniac de- | scended hand over hand. | Detective Bell attemted to seize him, but the maniac struck at him viciously and got away. The fellow dashed down Kearny street with Bell in hot pursuit. The detective and an athletic citizen caught up with the madman near Post street gnd succeeded in subduing him after a rough tussle. It took four men to get the maniac into a straitjacket at the detention | ward of the Central Emergency Hos- pital. He refused to give his name, but from remarks that he dropped It is thought that he is an escape from the State Insane Asylum at Ukiah. His clothing bears a Ukiah label and he admitted that he had been in a strait- jacket before. He had $86 40 in his possession.

Kill Herself While ‘Her Son Sits Opposite Her at the Dinner Table WIFE OF WELL KNOWN MAN SAYS HE BEAT HER Tiring of Life of Sorrow Parent Takes Child and Seeks Solace in Death by Swallowing Poison Mrs. Tillie Ferguson, wife of Daniel M. Ferguson, proprigtor of a gand- blast concern and one time race track man, attempted to kill.herself in the presence of her little son last night. The despondent woman, ‘who tells a tale of abuse from her husband, took her 9-year-old child into the Nabob restaurant at 308 Mason street and while she engaged the lad’s attention she poured a bottle of lysol into a glass containing a little water and drank it. Timely treatment at the Cen- tral Emergency Hospital saved her. Mrs. Ferguson returned from a visit with her parents at Dixon last Satur- day night. She says she went away to escape her’ husband's cruel treatment. She and her little boy stayed at the Golden West Hotel on Saturday night. The woman avers that she was afraid to go to her home at the St. Augusta, 536 Geary street, fearing further mis- treatment. To Dr. Millar, chief sur- geon of the emergency Service, she told a harrowing tale of abuse. She says that her husband is many years older than she and extremely jealous. She bore his blows and curses until she could stand them no longer. Last night she decided to end it all. Packing a few little beloved trinkets in a hand, satchel, she took her child, Leon,” a bright boy, telling him that they would go to dinner. It was § o'clock when the two arrived at the Nabob. The eating place was de- serted. Mrs. Ferguson and the child entered a room. When the boy was not watching her she tossed off the dose of lysol. In a moment she was writhing In pain on the floor. Leon cried out and the restaurant walters rushed to the woman's assistapce. Po- liceman Samuel Orr was called in and he gave the woman an emetic. Drs. Magnus and Millar pumped the would- be suicide's stomach out and pro- nounced her out of danger. Mrs. Ferguson is a comparatively young woman. he was well dressed and rather pretty. On the bed at the hospital she begged the doctors to let her die. Death, she averred, was bet- ter than kicks and blows at the hands of her husband. She comes from Dixon. When seen at his rooms at the St. Augusta last night, Ferguson swore under his breath when informed of his wife’'s rash deed. He denied that he had beaten her and said that she was “fiighty and quick tempered.” He would offer no reason for his wife's attempt on her life. Ferguson was a few years ago well known in'race track circles. When As- | sistant Attorney General Post was sent to Alturas, Modoc County, to prosecute the lynchers Ferguson went with him as a bodyguard. He is now connected with the Union Tron Works. —e————— RECEXVES NEW ASSIGNMENT. — lll]or Samuel W.

Majestic Ginger Ale NEWS PLEASES FRUIT CROWERS Arrangemént Between Ar- mour and Santa Fe Is ~Pronounced Beneficial —_— The exclusive story published in The Call yesterday of the agreement reached by the Santa Fe and the Armour refrig- erator car companies, under which rates | on fruit shipments are to be lowered and rebates positively abolished, was read with much pleasure by the fruit grow- ers of the State. They look upon the new arrangement as another step toward entire release from any oppres sive conditions in the matter of mar- | keting the products of their orchards that may exist. A prominent local can- ner and shipper said last night: The most important thing to the frult grower is the making of better time to' the Eastern market and the new arrangement will resuit in that if the companles allow each other's | cars to run on the tracks of both systems. | Bvery reduction in the price of transportation | is beneficlal, but speed and direct carriage to | market are vital to the fruit industry. ‘There may be some things behind this agree- ment that have not come to light. Perbaps the imminence of competition from the Gould | system has something to do with it. Then | there may be a fear that under the Hepburn | bilF the Interstate Commission will assume | control of private ear lines. GERBER NOTES BENEFITS. W. B. Gerber, president of the Earl Fruit Company, said at Sacramento last night' that he received from The Call in the morning his first information | that the Armour and Santa Fe refrig- | erator car companies had reduced tHe fruit rates to the East. He continued: This will be a great thing for the fruit in- dustry of the State. It means a reduction of 15 per cent in the cost of the refrigeration of | truits shipped to Eastern points, and to that extent will the fruft growers of the State re- ceive the benefit. Judging by last year's ship- ments, which amounted to gain to the frult growers of t! i ‘the service we get from the transportation and re: tign companfes. Nothing could com- pensate for & diminution in the excellence of this _service—certainly no reduction of rates could. But the companies have given us very tisfactory service$ and you will hear no complaints from fruit growers about the prices they realized from last season's sales. present reduction will be a substantial one and will make the cost of refrigeration $82 50 & car to New York. It was once §175 a car ad only five vears ago it was §$140 a car. The recent action by the refrigerator com- panies 1s only anothersof the many plain evi- dences recently offered that the future of Northern Californfa development is generally ized. The companies understand that the fruit industry In this part of the State is & big thing, and it is to their interest to encourage it to become still bigger. DIRECT SHIPMENTS. It seems to me, from reading the article in to-flay’s Call. that a policy for which I have al contended Is to b® adopted—that frult shipped -from Fresno and Visalla will not be brought to Sacramento before it Is forwarded Past, and that fruit grown in and around Sac- ramento will not first be sent to Mojave, but that it will be shipped from the localities in which it is grown by the most direct routs. I sincerely hope this is the case. o Tt & dmmit It will interest you tes of the great Fratt dmmmou h now n vnrl with the rallroads secure rate for declduous frutts o ‘any part ot (h. nlud States.
