ALONG THE WATER FRONT
Sad Ending of a Man Who Was
Once a Wealthy Citizen
of Oregon.
Remarkably Quick Time Made by the
German Ship Christine to
This Port.

There was a tragedy on Howard-street
wharf yesterday morning. An Austrian,
who at one time was quite wealthy,
Jumped overheard and left a note in his
overcoat pocket saying, 'Died from
hunger"
He never came to the surface again, and
the police were of the opinion that his
body was weighted. His overcoat, coat,
hat and shoes were found on the wharf by
Officer Charles Callahan and taken to the
Harbor Police station.
The name of the deceased was J. Beo-
vich, who once owned considerable prop
erty in Oregon. His brother is a Catholic
priest in Austria and another relative is a
wealthy merchant in Vienna.
Beovich told his friend, S. Zarro, at Ii
East street, that he was going to commit
suicide, but the latter only laughed at
him. Zarro says that the man must have
been crazy, as b need never have wanted
for meal. His numerous friends would
only have been too glad to have helped
him.
A wagon-load of stuff for the schooner
Viking was ordered back to the warehouse
Yesterday by the wharfnger at Mission
street wharf. 1t was composed mostly of
dynamite, and Captain Luttrell was in
formed that he would have to wait until
he got his vessel into the bay before he
could ship the dangerous cargo.
The German ship Christine which made
the smart run of forty-eight days from
Newcastle, n. S. W., to San Francisco,
made an equally smart run from other
ports. From Hull to Cape Town the trip
was made in sixty-one days, and from
Cape Town to Newcastle was only thirty
seven days. This Captain Warneke con-
siders slow time as the American bark
Fresno made it in thirty days. All in all
the actual sailing time of the Christine
after discharging and loading at two ports
was only 146 days, and a great many of
the coal feet have been longer than that in
getting from Swansea to San Francisco.
G. W. McNear Jr. took quite party of
his friends up to Port Costa on the
Spreckels tug Active last night. The
young men examined the grain sheds and
visited number of the British ships now
loading up there.

O'Rourke scored on IrwIn's hit to left,
after having reached first on a single and
stolen second.
The fifth started with Sweeney at first
on Johnson's error. Power followed with
four balls from Johnson Fraser's single
to center was so badly handled that
Sweeney came home, Fraser reached third
and the batter got second. Harper's little
infield hit retired him at first and left two
men on bases, when Stanley landed two
Dagger into right scoring both men. Lallv
just beat the ball to first, while Stanley
reached third. Frank tipped up a little
one to the catcher and went out at hrst.
Werrick followed with a foul that Wilson
closed on like a rat-trap and San Fran
cisco's run-getting was over for the game.
Oakland managed to get two in the sixth
and last, when Johnson scored Mullane
with a two-bagger and crossed the plate
himself on Sweeney's failure to handle q
fielded ball.

A Good Thing.

The Star Is in receipt of copy of the
memorial recently adopted by the Cleve-
land Chamber of Commerce praying the
two great parties to shorten the National
political campaign. 1t is a convincing
document and should produce an effect fol-
the benefit of the commercial interests OF
the country There is not an organization
of business men in the United States that
cannot consistently subscribe to such a
plea. and. indeed, the reasons that actu-
ate them in their opposition to long
campaign should appeal strongly to the
sensibilities of the workingmen who
could easily exercise great influence upon
the solution of the question put by the
Cleveland business men. - Washington

Snap Shots at the Chutes.

The Camera Club attended the water

noon in body and about 200 shots were
taken. The extreme difficulty of getting
satisfactory results has baffied the Chicago

cities no gratifying pictures have been
made. However, the San Franciscans
think that when their negatives are de-
veloped some great pictures will result.

Diseases are more prevalent than generally
supposed, and among them all none is more
horrible than Syphilis. Indeed, If not checked
in time, it becomes even more horrible in its
secondary and tertiary stages than leprosy
ITSELF Many doctors suppress this terrible
disease by filling their patients systems with
mercurial poison, with that damnable curse
from which your children as well as yourself
will suffer, but DOCTOR sWEANY warrants
a positive and permanent cure of Syphilis with
out Injurious drugs. He also effects a speedy
cure in all cases of elect, Gonnorrhea, inflam-
nations pains, itchings, swellings and dis
charges of every kind, Structure, irritability of
the bladder and kindred troubles, many of
which are the result of improper treatment of
former diseases by other physicians.
