The police have Information that Brock was arrested in New Orleans, but that is all they know about him.

John Maloney Returns After Pour Months' Absence With a Companion. 1UNK0 MEN ARRESTED WITH VICTIM IN TOW A horrible sight met the eyes of Annie Balser, housemaid in the King's Daugh ters' Home, 317 Francisco street, when she entered the room of one of the Inmates last Tuesday morning and found aged Charles P. Smith lying on the bed with his throat cut and weltering In his gore. She ran screaming from the room and a surgeon was sent for, who dressed the wound. Owing' to the hemorrhage and his advanced age— S2 years— Smith died yesterday forenoon. A bloody razor and a penknife, with which the wounds had been inflicted, were found on the bed. Smith had been an Inmate of the home for about ten years, during which he had been a Bufferer from rheumatism and pa ralysis.

Inmate of the King's- Daughters' Home Commits Suicide While Sick and Despondent. , OCTOGENARIAN CUTS HIS THROAT WITH A RAZOR The patronage of the circus is deserved, for the programme is splendid. Ringling Bros, are not set in a groove and they present many novelties. The Nelson fam ily, famous acrobats, are the headliners of the show and without doubt they are the greatest in their line. The bareback riders make daring acts and their dash ing leaps to the backs of galloping horses are watched with suspense. Captain Webb's performing seals are wonderful and their tossing and balanc ing of a ball put the slippery fingers of many baseball players to shame. The opening spectacle of the Crusaders Is well arranged, the tableaus are full of color and all the participants In the act are handsomely costumed. The menagerie is both Interesting and instructive. The greatest attraction is a tigress with six cubs a month old. The giraffe has much fun watching the crowd, and with his head peering out far over the "* cage he Is a typical specimen for the cartoonist. There are two performances, one at 2 p. m. and one at 8 p. m. Twelve thousand people attended the performance of Ringling Bros.' circus last evening. Every reserved seat was sold early In the day and by 8 o'clock last night hundreds of people were turned away. Thousands suffer from a short, hacking cough who might bo cured by Ptso'a Cure. • Programme Is Full of Clever and Daring Acts. Mrs. Loo Lin Admitted. MONTREAL, Sept. 9.— Owing to the ef forts of Miss Clark of New York, Mrs. Loo Lin, the Chinese school teacher, wife of a New York restaurant keeper, who wa? detained at San Francisco by order rf the United States Immigration authori ties and brought in bond to Montreal, will be entitled to go to New York in a few dayg, having obtained the requisite pass port. June 6 was the only day this year when it was warmer than yesterday. • The tem perature on the former occasion was % degrees Fahrenheit. The mercury fell twenty degrees yesterday from the max imum in a period of three hours, and the weather last night was of the bnimy character which makes California famous the world over. Professor McAdie of the Weather Bu reau has compiled statistics from the of ficial reports showing that there have been but eleven days In San Francisco during the summer months of the last thirty years when the temperature has risen higher than 90 degrees Fahrenheit. The cause of yesterday's heat is trace able, according to McAdie, to the exist ence of an area of high pressure over Oregon and Nevada. The heat in the in terior of the State was intense yesterday, although no records were broken. More warm weather is scheduled for to-day. Professor McAdie said yesterday: "There is nothing like .San Francisco weather anywhere else in the world. I foresee that as the population of the United States Increases this city will be come more and more popular as a sum mer resort. It is never very hot for any length of time, and we know nothing of the cold weather. which* makes life in the East so uncomfortable during the wln-f ter. San Francisco's weather Is bound to make her greater and richer than if she had within her boundaries the greatest gold mines in the world." A genuine hot wave struck San Fran cisco yesterday, and although it did not tarry long on its way Into the Pacific. It made Itself generally appreciated. The mercury stood at 64 degrees Fahrenheit in the early morning and rose very grad ually. About noon it began to be hot in earnest, and at 1:20 o'clock p. m. the ther mometers registered 92 degrees in the shade. Rabbi Jacob Voorsanger was the guest of honor at a banquet tendered him last evening by 200 prominent Jewish citizens, who desired to express their appreciation of his completion of thirty years' work for the cause of Judaism. The hosts of the banquet are members of the Independent Order of B'nai B'rlth, of which Rev. Dr. Voorsanger Is a dis tinguished leader. The banquet was given at a downtown restaurant and an elab orate menu was In evidence. Max Popper acted as toastmaster, and in a brief speech he tendered a welcome to the guest of the evening. D. S. Hirsh berg proposed the toast "Our Guest" and delivered a eulogy on the career of Dr. Voorsanger, whom he designated as a "God-appointed leader of Israel." The speaker dwelt upon the broad views of the rabbi and his earnest efforts to as similate the religion of the Jew and har monize all points of doctrine with Amer ican citizenship. On behalf of the members of B nai B'rlth Mr. Hirshberg then presented Dr. Voorsanger a massive gold goblet, suit ably engraved. In delivering his response Dr. Voorsanger was visibly affected, and he assured his hearers that he would ever cherish the kindly feelings that had prompted the banquet and presentation. The rabbi spoke eloquently ' of the ad vance of Judaism in America, and said his life's efforts had been and would al ways be devoted to the end to put thor ough Jewish sentiment Into Americanism and to teach that the narrow environ ments of the past must give way to the broad progress of the present, thus bene fiting religion and citizenship. Toasts were also delivered by Wallace A. Wise, Rev. M. S. Levy, E. Myron Wolf, George Samuels, Otto Irving Wise, Rev. M. Friedlander, Marcus Rossnthal and H. Gutstadt.

She lived In China for nearly thirty years and up to a year ago, when she came to San Francisco, and with her son Gordon had resided at the Manhattan ever since. She was a highly cultured woman of much refinement and greatly beloved by the people with whom she came In con tact. Her untimely death is the source of great grief to all her friends. Her age was about 55 years. Mrs. C. C. Bennett died suddenly at the Manhattan Hotel Tuesday night. She was In excellent spirits during the day and her friend. Mrs. Sproat of the Stewart Ho tel, who dined with her, states that at that time she was In the best of health. She retired to her room 'shortly before 9 o'clock. The landlord, F. S. Skaggs, found her lying cold in death at 11 o'clock yesterday morning. From the position of the body she must have been in the act of arranging her hair prior to retiring when death came. When found she was in her night robe, lying face down on the floor, with a hair comb in her hand. The body was remov ed to the Morgue, where the Coroner held an autopsy, the report being that death was due to fatty degeneration of the heart. j Mrs. Bennett's son, Gordon, who was spending his vacation at Woodside, was telephoned for and arrived in town late in the afternoon. Another son, Charles R. Bennett, who is a member of the firm of Mustard & Co., in Shanghai, was cabled to regarding the funeral arrange ments. Three thousand people assembled at Schuetzen Park yesterday and enjoyed the picnic of Clan Fraser Xo. 78, Order of the Scottish Clans. Despite the heat cf the day the guests present took part in the athletic games and enjoyed the danc ing until a late hour in the evening. A number of valuable prizes were competed for and there was considerable rivalry among the contestants' to secure the trophies.

Truck No. 2, while drawing up at the scene of the fire, was overturned by the rear. wheels coming In contact with a heavy timber and the driver and tillerman were thrown to the ground. They escaped with a few bruises. A Chinese workman named Ah Jim, employed at the chemi cal works, was burned on the right side cf the face and was sent to the Harbor Emergency Hospital for treatment. The four-story salsoda and cream of tartar works adjoining the sulphur mill escaped injury owing to the splendid work of the Fire Department. The president of the Stauffer Chemical Company is C. de Guigne, and J. H. Wheeler Is the vice president, J. Stauffer being secretary and manager. A disastrous fire occurred yesterday morning at half-past 7 at the sulphur re fining and whiting plant of theStauffer Chemical Company, Pay and Dupont streets. It resulted in the total loss of a two-story brick and wooden building, the estimated damage being $30,000. The fire started in the sulphur grinding mill, and Is supposed to have been caused by sparks generated by a piece of flint being crushed by the rapidly revolving rollers. The flames spread rapidly, and when the Fire Department arrived the entire building was a mass of flames. A second alarm was sent in by Acting Chief Dougherty and a dozen engines and a water tower were engaged for more than an hour in fighting the fire. Owing to the dense sulphur fumes the firemen were compelled to work at some distance from the building. Fifty tons of sulphur and a large quantity of whiting were destroyed by the flames and water.

AMES LARGE CROWDS ATTEND CIRCUS Captain McCann thanked the members most heartily for their kindness and said that the surprise was so great that he could scarcely find words to show his full appreciation of the gift bestowed upon him. The sword is a magnificent piece of work, being made up by Litchfleld. The committee having the "evening at home" in charge was composed of the following: Privates- Frank D. O'Keefe, Fred Postel, Henry Schmidt, Robert El liott and Frank Burns. The affair proved a success throughout. Lieutenant William V. Johnson made the presentation speech, In the course of which he outlined the splendid work per formed by Captain McCann in bringing the company up to the high standard that it holds. This was made notable by the fact that when Captain McCann first took charge of the company one year ago It was almost on the verge of disbanding By his untiring efforts and work he has brought the company up to be one of the foremost in the First Regiment, League of the Cross Cadets. Cadets, the members of the company surprised him by presenting him with a handsomely engraved sword Tuesday evening, September 7, at their armory at Fifteenth and Mission streets.

LEAGUE OF THE CROSS OF FICER WHO WAS PRE • SENTED WITH A SWORD. Hubbard was charged at the Hall of JuKtice with assault to commit murder. His story, in so far as the shooting is concerned, was corroborated by several witnesses, who, however, could not fur nish a description of the man who had as sailed him, and the police also failed to find any trace of the man who had fled. At The Oaks it was denied that a man named Hubbard was a lodger there, but the prisoner still Insists that he has a room there. Dr. Kergan said that he and his wife hi^d been to the theater and were about to board a car for the ferry when he heard the report of a pistol and was Ftartled when his wife suddenly shrieked and fell to the ttreet. The woman, who proved to be Mrs. Katherine Kergan, wife of Dr. W. W. Kergan, living at 957 Eighth street, Oak land, was hurriedly carried by her hus band into the entrance of the Phelan building, where she expressed a doubt as to whether fhe had been hit by the stray shot, tut complained that the lower por tion of her body was numb. A carriage was called and in company with her hus band and Officer Driscoll. Mrs. Kergan wa& conveyed to the home of Dr. J. B. Kergan, 22$ Hyde street, where an exam ination developed that she had been wounded slightly in the right thigh. Later she was conveyed to her home in Oak land. As the woman fell several person* rush r-d to her and as they did so one of two men who had been quarreling near the rurb on the south slda of Market street, suddenly ran up Market street to ward Fourth and the other, turn ing, darted into Becker & Hender son's saloon, a few doors below where they had been standing. He ran to the rear of the saloon. wh<>re he was over hauled by Becker, who immediately turn ed ' him over to Police Officers Daniel Drisccll and Michael Farrell. To the police the prisoner gave his name as C. T. Hubbard and said he was < mployed as a telegraph operator by the Southern Pacific Company at' Selma, but l:ad been visiting the city for a few days and was staying at The Oaks on Third street. Regarding his share in the shoot ing affair Hubbard, who is about twenty f'jur years of age, said: I had been to the Alcazar Theater and was n turning to my lodging*. Coming Cown O Terrell street, I crossed , Market at Grant avenue and was proceeding on my way along the nou;h eicie of Vurket when a etranger puddpnly accepted me. He made several in euitlns-n-inarks about my -clothee, to which I responded, 8-nd lie then turned and hit me on the raouta with his list. I quickly recovered Jrom the effects of the blow and drawing my pistol nred a shot at him. When he saw me reach lor thu he bee^-n to run and was soon out of elKtit. 1 do not know who the feliow was juid I doubt If I could positively identify him If we met again. The sharp report of a pistol, followed by the shrieks of a woman, who, a sec ond later was eeen to totter and fall in the middle of Market street, just oppo site Grant avenue, startled the pedestri ans on the big thoroughfare shortly be fore 11 o'clock last night and for a time <aused them to believe that a murder had been committed. E. F. HeaJy, a newspaper man living at 8390 Twenty-third street, reports that a tall and a short footpad hold him up shortly after 1 o'clock yesterday morning while he was on his way home and re lieved him of $6 SO, all the money he had in his pockets. He had reached Clinton Park and Valencia street when the taller of the two footpads, who was masked, pointed a revolver at his head and ordered him to throw up his hands. He promptly obeyed and the smaller of the two deftly went through hla pock ets, extracting his coin. Then lie was told to go about his business. Shortly after the hold-up he met Policemen Pow ell and Coulter and notified them. They made a search of the neighborhood, but could find no trace of the footpads. One is described as about 5 feet 9 inches tall and the other about 5 feet 5 inches. Detectives Dlnan and Wren have not yet succeeded In arresting the two foot pads who operated at 252 O'Farrell street on Tuesday afternoon. They are satis fled that the footpads are addicted to the same vice as the men who were robbed and that they knew each other. The vic tims, who are known as "dope fiends," told the detectives that if thev made any arrests they would not prosecute the case. The arrests -will, however, be made. John Smith and Dennis O'Brien, who are supposed to be the two footpads who held up John Bohner, 300 Turk street, and his patrons; John Sere, Seventh and Natoma streets, and his patrons, and Henry Elmers, 1345 Sacramento street, were booked at the City Prison yesterday on a charge of robbery, following the identification of Smith by Elmers as one of the two footpads who robbed him in his store. Owinie to the fact that the footpads wore masks none of the other victims have been able to identify them. John Smith and Dennis O'Brien, who were arrested last week by Detectives Dlnan and Wren, are not the only tall and short footpads who are optrating in this city together. There were the tall and the short men who held up several people In Golden Gate Park and a man at Bush and Polk streets last Friday night.

Miss Agnes Miller, o! Chicago, speaks to young women about dangers of the Menstrual Period — how they can avoid pain, suffering and remove the cause. " I suffered for 6ix years with dys- menorrhea (painful periods), so much so that I dreaded every month, as I knew it zae&nt three or four days of intense pain. The doctor said this rras due to an inflamed condition of the uterine appendages caused by repeated and neglected colds and feet wetting. "If youns girls only realized hoir dangerous it is to take cold . at this critical time, much suffering would be spared them. Thank God for Lydia E. PinJcliam's Vegetable Com- pound* that was the only medicine which helped me any. Within three weeks after I started to take it, I noticed a marked improvement in my general health, and at the time of my next monthly period the pain had diminished considerably. I kept up the treatment and was cured a month later. I am like another person sinca I am in perfect health."— Miss Agsks MuxEir, 25 Potomac Ave., Chicago, I1L £5OOO forfrtt If original of above letter proving genuineness cannot be produced.
