A DETERMINED STOWAWAY,

He Is Only 10 Years Old, But Has
Crossed the Ocean Ten Times.
Robert Wade, 10 years OF age, has been a
stowaway on ten different steamships that
have arrived in this port within the past
year. He was on the Etruria and was
turned over to the Barge Office officials.
Robert is small for his age, with chubby
face, large brown eyes and dark hair. He
smiles when lie talks, and is altogether quite
interesting. When questioned yesterday,
he said that his mother died five years ago.
Three years later his fathers death followed,
and he was left to the care of his ten
brothers and two sisters. The brothers are
all sailors, except one, who is a bar-keeper
for the Manhattan Club.
He first slowed himself away in the steam-
ship Servia and was sent back by the Conn.,
missioners of Emigration, but came back In
her on her next trip. He was put to work
peeling potatoes for the cabin passengers,
and had good food and bunk. He went to
his brother at the Manhattan Club. and
secured work with DR.. Andrews of fremont.
He was given coed clothes and performed
his duties for three months Then he be-
came tired and cams back to the city. His
brother paid his passage on the Alaska, at
the same time saying that it was the last
time he would do it.
He returned to Liverpool, but only re-
NAMED there two days, and again slowed
himself on the Servia. He went to the fire.
mems quarters, and they Cal ed for him. On
arriving here lie was again sent back, but
was not dismayed. He slowed himself on
the Gallia, and went back again. without ii
being known that he was aboard. He re-
remained in Liverpool two weeks. and then
walked aboard the Etruria, slowing himself
behind the donkey engine. As the sea was
rough he was afraid he might get crushed.
He left his hiding place and landed here at
the end of the trip. He continued to do the
same thing. going back and forth, until ten
days ago, when he concluded to pass the
winter in New York. The Barge Office
officials notified his brother of lis arrival.
Bobby" says he does not want his family
to take care Of him, but prefers to work for
himself.-New York Press.

OBITUARY z.
DIR. r. Z. COLE.

DR.. r. E. Cole died yesterday morning In
Oakland. He has been prominently identi-
fed with its history for thirty years. The
deceased was an Ohioan by birth and ar
rived in San Francisco in October 1919, and
commenced the practice of dentistry, soon
amassing a fortune. He was one of the
twelve original proprietors and owners of
the present Southern Pacific ferry and local
railroad systems, but sold out his rights
when the great corporation became inter-
ested on this Coast. From 1878 to 1887 he
WAS one of the Directors of the Oakland
Bank of Savings, and was repeatedly urged
to run for Mayor on the Republican ticket,
but always declined, his reason being that
he would have to sign the liquor licenses,
and, being total abstainer, this would jar
against his principles. He was a member
OF California Lodge of Masons, which he
assisted in organizing in 1S49. The deceased
left a large family.

The several tailoring establishments in
this city, Sacramento, Los Angeles, Port
land, Oregon, and Seattle, Wash, have been
attached by the creditors of Robert Gordan,
the proprietor, TO secure the payment OF
claims held by Reiss Bros. 81 Co., amounting
to close upon $4,000, and other claims in
the hands Of George Goeitinger amounting
to $4,000.
Gordan asserts that his stock Of cloths is
more than sufficient to pay off mis- creditors,
but among the merchants this statement is
taken with considerable allowance. 1t is
thought that Gordan's indebtedness amounts
% between 100000 and $4,000, mostly due
to Eastern houses. The failure is credited
to depression of business and to heavy ex-
penses in which he was involved by his
wife'S proceedings for divorce.
