Panama.
CRUEL SPORT ON THE DOCKS
A Nightly Collision at Sea Between the
Bark c. C. Funk and the
Schooner Gotama.

The Pacific Mail steamship San Juan,
Captain Pitts, arrived yesterday, twenty
seven days from Panama and way ports.
She left the Isthmus two days late, and
lost several more at way ports. She
brought seventeen cabin and seventy-six
steerage passengers. Samuel Howe, a
cabin passenger and resident of this
City, died on the passage up between San
Bias and Manzanillo, and was buried at
sea. The deceased was about rs years old
and was very infirm.
Among the passengers were thirty naval
apprentice boys from the United States
schoolship Alliance, New York, in charge
OF Lieutenant D. W. Hodges, U. S. n.
They, as well as the officer, are bound for
Mare Island to become part of the crew
of the United States cruiser Boston. The
San Juan had a clean bill of health and
was permitted to dock.
The barkentine c. c. Funk, which ar
rived from the Sound yesterday, reports
that early on the morning of the 5th inst,
in latitude So degrees 80 minutes north and
longitude 124 degrees II minutes west,
she collided with an unknown
schooner. The night was dark and
foggy and when the lookout saw the
stranger she was close aboard heading di-
agonally for the barkentines port bow. So
suddenly did she drop out of the fog and

Thompson found that the bullet had not
injured the brain, and that Plaetrich would
soon be all right again.
Plaetrich, who is widower, said he was
tired of life. He had been out of work for
some time and run up an account of $40
with his landlord for room rent. The land
lord was pressing him for payment, and as
Plaetrich had no funds and no prospects of
obtaining employment he thought the best
way was to seek relief from his earthly
troubles in death. He is man about so
years of age.

principals over there as they have the
more civilized races on this side of the
world. The Japanese, from the indica-
tons at hand, are immortalizing their
prowtss to suit their own particular taste,
and with their natural talent for painting
and sculpture are handing down to pos
terlty mementoeS upon which the younger
generations may look with pride as the
monuments to the valor of their ancestors.
At the battle of Ping Yang. beginning
September 16. 1894, and lasting a few
hours beyond three days, 1900 Chinese
and 100 Japanese were slain.
During the fight the Chinese General
Sasoto Gas near as it can be called in Eng
lish) ran against sword or two which
mutllated his anatomy to some extent
The two principal wounds were a slash
some inches deep on the right side of the
face above the ear, and the other well
placed swipe under the second vertabra
which severed his head from his body.
With due regard for convenience the
japanese left the trunk and limbs on the
field of battle, but packed away the gen.
erals head as a trophy. 1t was placed in
pickle jar and judging from the appear
ance of its reproduction as it IS seen in
this City, either the picking or the wound
in the neck was not to the generals liking.
The head is here, not the picked one,
but its exact counterpart, carved in wood
by Yashima, probably the greatest wood
carver in Toxic.
One of these heads has reached here as
a present to James Orndorff, the we'll
known Virginia City man, who in turn
presented it to George Jennings for his
ca binet of curiosities.

movement against impure milk in San

that San franclsco'S reputation for hon.

Yet the world is full of good men who are

"There are three kinds of tenants of

so quickly did she approach that almost
Immediately she plunged the tip of her
bowsprit into the barkentine's bulwarks,
smashed the rail and carried away some
of the gear. For a moment she hung to
the larger vessel, the seas hanging her
against the side of the barkentine. Then
she broke away, dropped astern and was
quickly swallowed up in the night and fog.
Not soul was seen aboard of her nor
were there any voices heard. Even her
lights were invisible, aud whatever
damage she sustained cannot be guessed
at. The c. G. Funk was quickly put over
on the other tack to heave her wounded
side well out of the water and an examina-
ton made. But no leak nor serious in
jury was found.
The sequel, however, of this midnight

The Stock ton steamer J. ID. Peters broke
down yesterday morning about seven miles
this side of Stockton. She was bound to
this City, and had big passenger and
freight list. All were taken back to Stock
ton and will doubtless be forwarded to San
Francisco by another boat.
The officers of the Society for the Pre-
vention of Cruelty to Animals would find
fruitful field for labor if they could be
induced 10 patrol the water front occa-
sionally. Every day, and especially on
Sundays, the young gamins from Tele-
graph Hill and the northern portion of
the City congregate around the docks with
their dogs, which they pull or push into
the water. Often the animals are wretched
ownerless ours which evidently have been
picked up in the streets, and which have
no desire for cold bath in the bay. These
are thrown in the water and forced to
swim around until frequently they are
drowned.
Yesterday three small, ragged young
sters kept little dog in the water by
string tied around its neck until the poor
animal persisted. No one seems inclined
to pay any attention to or to check this
pastine, which is as stupid as it is in
human.
The big Pacific Mail freight steamship
Aztec came in from Panama yesterday
with only a water ballast aboard. The
fact that SO commodious vessel is per-
mitted to run idle for hundreds of miles
along coast pierced with ports appears a
remarkable proceeding.

A Large Audience Applauded the Vio-

A Large Audience Applauded the Vio-
1inist and His Company.
The musical public seems to have awak-
ened at last to the fact that Divide Musin
is in the City and that his concerts are
first time during his present visit, he at
tracted large audience; indeed. the Bald
win Theater was nearly filled by people
who gave every sign of thoroughly enjoy
ing the programme.
Musin himself naturally took the most
prominent part in the performance. In
the movement from the Beethoven violin
concerto, as well as in the Mendelssohn
concerto, he played, particularly in certain
passages, with remarkable fiuency grace and
delicacy. Fire and majesty were not par
tlcularly conspicuous in Musin's perform
ance, but he was in much better form than
at his concert last Wednesday, and won
ovalions at the conclusion of both the con-
certos, particularly at the Beeth oven one,
where his facile execution of the cadenzas
aroused the enthusiasm of his hearers.
As an encoae to the Beethoven concerto
he played "Serenade" by Pierpierne, and
after the Mendelssohn number he gave
"Manzaniilo" by Rolbyn. Musin also
played an effective Caprice" of his own
composition.
Annie Louise Musin's easy vocali2ation
in an aria from 1.-The Magic Flute and in
The Bird Merchant" made her popular.
Her encores were ''Sing, Sweet Bird and
'Ohe Mama
Eduard Scharf, the pianist, played an
"Etude' by Rubinstein particularly well.
The orchestra, in addition to acco M
panying Musin, played couple Of over
lures.
