WORLDS FAIR.
Firemen's Day-Another jam at the
Grounds.


Grounds.
CHICAGO, Oct. 10.-There are indica-
tions that the attendance at the exposition
will be very heavy this week, as large
number Of the people who were attracted
to the city by the Chicago day pageant
will remain for several days. They added
materially to the attendance to-day. The
weather continues perfect.
The physicians and their attendants
worked nearly all night over the people
who met with accidents in the fearful
crushes yesterday and last night, but the
patients were rapidly discharged this
morning.
In pieces of paper, empty lunch bask-
cts and their generally trampled appear
ances this morning, the grounds gave evil
dence OF yesterdays great host.
This is North Dakota day and Governor
Shortridge, Ex-Governor Burke and
other prominent citizens of that State
took part in the exercises at the State
building.
1t was also Fireman's day, and veteran
firemen were at the fair in great num-
bers, prominent among them being the
Veteran Firemen's Association of Cali
fornia, escorted by old fremen of Chi
cago. They paraded through the grounds,
having with them an old hand engine
built in New York in 1920 for Martin Van
Buren,. 1t was the first fire engine in the
State of California. The Chicago men
bad with them an engine that was used
in the Chicago fiIe. The veterans spent
most of the day in the California build
ing, where they were royalty entertained.
The National Commission to-day in
structed the Committee on Ceremonies to
prepare for the grandest exercises yet
given as q fitting close of the fair. 1t is
not yet determined whether the cele-
bration will be on the last day only or the
last three days.
That the great mass of people who went
to the fair yesterday did not have enough
of it is evidenced by the fact that the total
attendance to-day reached 335. .264, OF
which 0S,613 were paid.

Another Girl Dies From the Effects of
a Criminal Operation.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 10.-Miss Amelia
Weekly, or Donnelly, aged Is years, died
this morning under suspicious circum-
stances. The body was removed to the
Morgue, and upon examination it was
found that death resulted from the effects
of criminal operation. On Monday
night DR.. Samuel Newman was call ed in
to attend sick girl. her mother claiming
that she had been treated for pneumonia
by Mrs. DR.. Godfrey without success.
DR.. Newman soon discovered that all was
not right. and in making an investiga-
ton of the room found several instru-
ments used in unlawful operations.
A visit was paid to DR.. Godfrey, who
turned out to be Mrs. DIR. Lephame,
proprietress of the Folsom-street Hos
pital. She at first disclaimed all knowl-
edge of the sick girl, but upon being
pressed finally stated that she had treated
the girl for cancer, but as she could not
effect q cure had given the case up. Her
story is not believed, and at late hour
tonight she was arrested by the police,
and will be held pending an investigation
by the Coroner.
Mrs. Lephame is the woman who sew
eral months ago was accused of murder
ing babe belonging to one of her
patients.

There was dead Chinaman on the

loathsome and almost pestilential Nearly
all are penniless, having gambled their

prietors Of canneries to run them from
o'clock in the morning until midnight,
II necessary, to pack the days supply of
fish. 1t is contract work, and the China
men are driven to their utmost capacity.
The inhuman strain has resulted, accord

in several deaths among the Chinese al

duced their vitality, and their food,

MYSTERY YET UNsoLvED.
Case of the Disappearance of River

Case of the Disappearance of a River
side Man Before the Courts.
RIVERSIDE, Oct. 10.-Facts attending
the mysterious disappearance of one
Charles Potter, a resident of San Jacinto,
some months ago, and the subsequent
discovery of dead body claimed to be
Potter's near this city shortly after his
disappearance. were revived to-day when
the widow of Potter applied to the court
TO be granted letters of administration of
the property left by the missing man.
Mrs. Potter produced evidence going to
show that the body found was that of her
husband, although the proof did not con-
clusively prove it to be such. Potter,
when he left home last March, had in his
possession considerable money, and he
has never been heard of since. 1t is pre-
sumed he met with foul play. The petit
ton of the widow was not decided by the
court, and as yet the mystery of Potter's
disappearance, as we'll as to the dead man
found near here, are unsolved.
