A LOVE-S|CK FIRST MATE.
Louis Wagner Makes Two At
temptS to Commit Sui
eide by Poison.
He Proposed Marriage to a Young
Lady on Scott Street and
Was Rejected.

Louis Wagner, first mate of the schooner
Allena, is determined to end his life. On
Saturday night he proposed marriage to a
young lady on Scott street, but she would
not accept him. He had, proposed on a
former occasion, with a like result, and
this time he prepared him self to do some
thing to work upon the young lady's sym
pathies Therefore, when she rejected
him, he pulled vial out OF his pocket
and swallowed the contents Then he
staggered out of the house and tum bled
about on the street.
He had also written letter to the young
lady, but he forgot to hand it to her before
staggering out of the house. While being
driven to the Receiving Hospital in the
patrol wagon he pulled the letter out of
his pocket. Policeman Mangan made
grab for it, but Wagner managed to tear it
In pieces.
When he reached the hospital he
showed no evidence of having swallowed
any poison. He told DR.. Kingswell that
he had taken dose of laudanum, and the
doctor as matter of precaution, admin
istered the usual remedy, which had an in
Simultaneous effect upon him. 1t was after
ward learned that the vial contained 100
homeopathic pills which were harmless.
Yesterday morning Wagner begged the
doctors to discharge him from the hospital
as the schooner was to sail in the after
noon, and as he appeared to be all right he
was allowed to go. Three hours later the
patrol wagon took him back to the hos
pital. He had brooded over his rejected
suit, and as he had been fooled by the
druggist on Saturday night he took care
not to be fooled again. So he bought some
morphine and swallowed it. The usual
remedy was again administered, with sue
cessful results, and he will have another
chance to end his life.
! Wagner is a strong, healthy looking
young fellow, and when asked yesterday
why he was SO anxious to shuttle off this
mortal coil the only reply he would give
was that he did not know He refused to
give the name of the young lady to whom
he proposed and expressed his indignation
at anything about her having been pub
lished.

FRENCH CAPITAL COMING.
DR.. BoySen'S Mine Being Sold
to a Wealthy Partisan
Syndicate.
He Leaves for Paris Soon-Other
important Sales VIII Proba-
bly, Be Made.

Some two or three months ago the Baron
de Choisy and E. de Bourgade, editor of
the Matin, one of the leading dailies of
Paris, were out here in the interest of an
immensely wealthy Partisan syndicate,
looking for chances to invest in mines.
With them came from Colorado Douglas
L. V. Browne, mining engineer, as ex-
pert. They looked at a number of large
properties on the northern lode and went
away with options on number of large
mines. Some of these were said to be the
Allison Ranch and others about Grass Val
ley, the Kennedy and DR.. Boysen's Pho
neer mine at Plymouth.
Dr. Boyson was busy yesterday at the
Palace Hotel packing up for trip to Eu-
rope.
He was asked if this had anything to do
with the mining deals. Although averse
to making any definite statement, he ac-
knowledged that the trip was partly on
business connected with the sale of part of
his Pioneer mine at Plymouth to the
French syndicate.
As to the Kennedy mine, in which he is
the largest shareholder, he said: mo OPP
ton is given any parties in the Kennedy
nor has there been any given, nor will
one be given unless an offer is accompanied
by cash deposit of considerable size as an
evidence of good faith, for the mine is now
in as prosperous condition as it ever has
been. We have evidence amounting to
positive proof of rich developments on the
lowest, a new, level"
DR.. Boysen expects to be gone about
three months, and on his return will open
up some other properties at Plymouth.
The doctor was one of those who in 1886
took hold of the Kennedy mine, which
was then old and abandoned with nothing
in sight. A great deal of money was spent
and work done for a period of over four
years before the mine was put on a paying
basis, but the doctor and his partners
stuck to it with pluck and perseverance
until they made it one of the richest pro-
ducers of gold in the State. Since 1890 it
has paid large dividends and has the prom
Use of great future before it..
Douglas Browne, who has been making
the examinations of the properties, is now
down south looking at some mines, but
will probably join DR.. Boysen in New
York.
There is no report yet as to the other
mines owned by the syndicate. but it is
likely that the French capitalists made
large investments here.

POETS AT PLAY.
The Gambo1s of "a Flock OF Literary
Dreamers on Miss Knapp's Farm
Near Oakland.

Yesterday flock of gentle poets gam
boied in the shade of the trees on Miss
Knapp's little farm near Oakland. They
talked rhyme and sentiment, ate fruit and
cream, slipped coffee and sighed. The
hostess was Miss Knapp herself, and her
guests were Ina D. Coolbrith, Charles War
rem Stoddard, Edna Smell Poulson, Viii
liam Greer Harrison, Mrs. Keller, Mrs.
Schermerh orn, Professor Markham, Art
list Kahler and Mr.. Keller.
They sought to define poetry and trace
its influence on human life. On many lit
tie incidental questions they did not agree,
but they all subscribed to the cardinal
proposition that poetry was the supreme
influence for good in human life.
1t was very well for the peace of the de-
lightful covey of songsters that they SO de-
cided, because William Greer Harrison
presided and any other decision would
have been reversed.

salary as professor, was "jollied" all over
the farm, because with all the beautiful
sentiments of his nature he was still I'M
mated. Neither did the hostess herself
escape without some chaff of the same
light kind. 1t was in the breeze, this
light gossip of life. The day was good to
the poets; the sunshine genial, the tenn
perature of the atmosphere delightful and
the views of land and sea and sky en-
chanting.
They all came back to earth again on the
O'Clock train from Oakland, wondering if
at some time all the poets in the world
would hold reunion in California-the
land of poetry and sunshine.

MORAL MASONRY.
Rev. DR.. HemphiIPs Ideas on the Bull,
ing of Character


Rev. John Hempnill, DID,, pastor Of
Calvary Church, spoke last evening on
"Moral Masonry" taking as the basis of
his remarks the quotation from the book
of Amos, Behold the Lord stood upon the
wall with plumbline in his hand"
''As the plumbline determines the per-
feet building" said the speaker. $50 the
figure of the text denotes that all Gods
measurements are exactly in accordance
with the rules of justice. Each of us is
building character which shall be tested
by God, even as the mason's work on
building is tested by the master mason"
The preacher emphasized the points
that, as each has but one character to
build, and as it is being slowly but ire
vocably formed, it behooved him to look
well to the materials used in its formation
and to make sure that it had the only
proper foundation upon Christ Jesus.
