Mrs. John RosenfeId Buried in the
Home of Peace Cemetery by
Sorrowing Friends.

The funeral of Mrs. John ROsenfeld took
place yesterday from the Lick House,
where she had died Saturday night. Long

the hotel pariors and corridors, and among
them were many poor people sorrOwng

filled half the parlor and several people
had to stand in the hall while DR.. V1or-

eloquent and touching eulogy was de-
livered by the rabbi on Mrs. Rosenfeld's s
career. her virtues. and above all. her
charity and goodness. Beside DR.. VOor-
sanger stood DR.. Levy, who married Mr.
and Mrs. Rosenfeld in San Francisco
thlrty-fOur years and four months ago.
The latter clergyman had Just returned
from Paris. where he has been for years.
The funeral services over, those present
hied slowly out OF the hotel, and when a
passageway was made through the waiting
crowd outside Mrs. ROsenield's remains
were borne TO the hearse. The pallbearers,
all representative men, were: John Ber-

a peculiar larceny occurred at an early
hour yesterday morning in boarding and
lodging house kept by Mrs. B. Hamilton on
Stockton street.
Mrs. Hamilton aud all the occupants of
the house except one went out during the
night. The one who remained went TO
bed and slept soundly, as subsequent
events would seem 10 indicate. Nothing
disturbed her until almost dayOreak, when
a Chinese servant knocked at her door.

There was no evidence, in any of the
