AN AWFUL ROW AND A BUCKLEY VICTORY,

the first sentence when the Buckley fac
ton, who realized that they were baing
throttled and that Watkins was presenting
death warrant from that committee, rose
with an awful roar of protest.
That began the row, that lasted, with
now and then just moments pause, till
Mcguire took hand. "Call the r-o-o-i ]"
was the burden of ten minutes, while Wat
kins stood helpless The Buckley men
were willing and anxious to vote,on sine
die adjournment, but they wanted the
roll corrected, as Watkins had promised.
After a while Assistant Secretary
Hughes, who had much to say, got in a
motion to adjourn sine die. motion by
Joseph Rothschild, who had finally forced
recognition, about fixing the roll, was
pending Watkins, after a siege of war,
made the ruling to the few about him who
could hear him that the motion to adjourn
sine die was not debatable, and he pro-
posed to put that motion at once.
The meeting became disorder, and as
men of both sides crowded to Watkins
with protest, urging and reasoning, he
hesitated and didn't know what to do or
how to do it.
Junta people who knew the programme
were disgusted because Watkins hesitated
about cracking it through under the cir
cumstances. "If the old rooster don't
stand up we're gone" declared Deputy
Recorder Fitzgerald, who was one of the
aggressive shouters and fighters on the
Junta side.
A minute still enough to allow loud
voice to be heard came along and an old
Democrat in one aisle got as far as Gen
tlemen, l am here in the interest of har-
mony and" when fist was seen to pass
through the air down among the seats. 1t
struck J. J. Maloney and in fraction of a
second hundreds jumped on chairs and
leaped to the platform to see the fight.
A few moments before Captain Price and
six policemen had come to the platform,
and Officer McGrayne had leaped tercely
at John J. Fitzgerald in a front seat to
force him down. That had started the
complete disorder, and now it came.
Four fights followed during the next ten
minutes, while angry disputants crowded
platform and argued with Watkins and
themselves, a table holding the water
pitcher went, and then it was that Gavin
McNab told one of his friends to turn out
the gas. That was the last possibility of
salvation for the Junta.

there were fifty-one appeals by working

DR., v. D, JOHNSTON DEAD.
The Chair of Chemistry at Cooper
Medical College Left
Vacant.
A Well.Known Physician Who Figured
Prominently in the Bowers Case
Passes Away.

DR.. William D. Johnston, the well-known
physician, died at the Lane Hospital, Clay
and Webster streets, at an early hour yes
terday morning, after a painful illness OF
three weeks.
The deceased medical man was well
known not only to the profession of which
he was an honored and respected mem der
but to people of this City and State gen.
orally, in consequence of the prominent
positions he held a. chief of the chemistry
department of the State Mining Bureau
for number Of years and until he ten.
dered his resignation to Governor Budd
last April; also through his occupying the
chair OF chemistry and toxicology in the
Cooper Medical College from the founding
OF that institution up to the time of his
death.
In addition to these responsible and
honorable positions, he had been fire.
quently called into the courts as an expert
in medlco-legal cases. The most proml-
nent of these were the celebrated DIR.
Bowers case, where that medico had been
tried and convicted of the murder of his
wife by administering pills containing
a phosphorus substance, the ingredients of
winch, on an analytical examination by
DR.. Johnston, were found in the woman's
stomach; and the case of John Martin, r, :.
Gently tried in this City. where the two
widows of the deceased Martin brothers
had legal complications regarding the
property left, with which the public is
familiar.
DIR. Johnston was born in Albany, N Y,
in 1916, and came to California with his
parents when years of age. He was edu-
ceted in the public schools of San Fran
cisco, graduating from the High School,
after which he placed himself under the
preceptorship of the celebrated DIR. L. c.
Lane, and at the same time he entered
the medical department of the State Uni
versity, from which he graduated in 1871,
receiving tie degree of doctor of medicine.
By the faculty at the Cooper College,
as well as by all his associates through
life, the deceased was much esteemed as
genial, warm-hearted man. His funeral
will take place from the auditorium con-
nected with Cooper College this afternoon
at clock, under the auspices of Mount
Moriah Lodge of Free and Accepted
Masons, of which lodge the deceased was
past master. In addition to this he was

SHARK STOPS A STEAMSHIP.

Medical Missionaries.

The success of the Christian medlcal
missionary abroad is yielding new fruits.
First there were a few men where now tnere
are hundreds; then came the female lneul-
cal missionaries. who have achieved more
than their male colleagues; then came
female trained nurses, who are now u De
found in the more thickly populated, non
Christian countries, and row, last OF all,
native women are being sent to Europe
and America, there to be educated as phy-
sicians.
The two who are in this country have
been REINFORCED by Mei-Li-Shl and Plng-
ung-Cheng, two Chinese women, VINO are
now studying medicine at Ann Aroor,
Mich, and by two Chinese and one Japa-
nese, who arrived last month, but nave
not vet matriculated at any collegiate IN
stitution. In the London schools no less
than fifteen young women from japan,
China, and especially India, are pursuing
similar courses. One of these an Indian
princess, has gone so far as to be taxing
special course at Oxford University. The
work which can be done by these women
is far greater than what might be supposed.
In all of these lands, but especially China
and India, there is profound prejudice
against foreigners. 1t is not because they
are foreigners, but merely because most
foreigners have no caste or class dlstlnc-
tions, and violate those which prevail In
the countries mentioned.
A prince, an ambassador, a consul,
general, a colonel, an admiral, a commo-
dore and captain are always welcomed
in the East, because their position is as
sured and because they themselves observe
a system of rank and etiquette which cor
responds very closely to their own. On
the other hand. in the Orient merchant
or business man has a very low caste. IN
addition to this complicated condition of
affairs it is universally regarded as shock
ingly immoral for men and women to
meet together socially. Woman's society
is composed exclusively of women
and mans of men. This accounts
for the success of our female med
ical missionaries, where the males
sometimes fail When, however, the ma
tive women who know and understand
fully the nature of class ana caste in their
own communities become qualified Md 8
they can penetrate any and every house

remarked in one of his most touching
fables: immortality is to be found In
that house where sickness and death have
never crossed the threshold" The few
Christians who are already carrying on
their double duty of healer of the body as
well as of the soul have had the greatest
success in both apacities.-Margher
