worth was sighted second time. No as

Frederick Kapp, gentleman well known
in California and for twenty five years past
a resident of Alameda county, died in this
city Sunday in his Attn year, He had been
renewed to San Francisco from his ranch in
Coatra Costa county in order that he might
have the best medical treatment. His death
will be mourne1 by numerous friends, who
had become attached to the man for his ster-
ling worth and amisble traits of character.

ever since that time borne an active part in
developing the resources of the State, paying
his special attention to farming in Alameda

Nothing new in regard to the whereabouts
of Henry Barnard, the missing Principal OF
Barnard's Business College, was learned yes
terday, and his location is as great mystery
as ever. Many of his friends incline TO the
idea that In respondent frame of mind,
consequent upon the loss of his property and
money, he committed suicide. Captain Lees
of the detective force also incliues to the same
opinion, and recalls the jumping overheard Of
an unrec ognizsd man from the Oakland ferry
boat, on the night Of the 18th or 26sh of Jauu-
ary, as the steamer entered the slip on this
side. 1t is somewhat doubtful, however,
whether the suicide was Barnard, as the
meager description furnished by passenger
on the boat leads to the belief that the man
drowned was a stair-builder named Martin,
belonging to Oakland, who has been missing
since the 25sh ultimo.
