NOTED MEMOR|ST DEAD,
Professor Loisette, the Well
Known Lecturer, Expires at
the Palace.
Before Royalty and Notables
in Many Countries to Advance
His Views.

Professor Alphonso Loisette, the we'll
known musician and lecturer of New York,
died last night about o'clock, at the
Palace Hotel, of dysentery.
He had arrived from New York last Mon
day, accompanied by his wife, and they in
tended to remain on this coast for several
months. The professor had just con-
Guided a lecture tour occupying three
years, during which he travelled through
the United States, Canada, India, South
Africa, New Zealand, Australia and China.
In all of these places he gave lectures
and readings under the patronage of the
most distinguished personages. Including
presidents of colleges, sup rintendents of
education and Governors of States and for
eign colonies.
In Canada the Governor General and
Lady Aberdeen were his patrons, and in
India the Viceroy extended his courtesies.
The Earl of Glasgow was his friend in
New Zealand and in China Sir William
Robinson saw that he was given recogni-
ton.
He was lecturer of rare merit and
drew large audiences wherever he ap-
peared. His principal study was the mem
DRY, which he claimed by peculiar sys-
tenn of mental exercise could be improved
Upon this subject he lectured and pub
lished volume which has been widely
read
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1896-02-06

months, he informed the Italian Consul,
his cruiser has been almost constantly at
sea, the visits paid to various ports during
that time having been only of few days
duration. In consequence of her long
cruise the commander considers that his
ship requires a thorough spring cleaning
before being submitted to the critical eyes
of the American public, and he has set his
men to work to polish everything on
board. Their Iabors will not be ended till
Saturday night, and on Sunday, from till
4 O'Clock, the Cristoforo Colombo will be
thrown open to all who choose to visit her.
The drive which Prince Luigi, Count
Cent and Prince Poniatowski took was to
Golden Gate Park and thence to the Bay
District track.
The Prince was an interested spectator
of the steeplechase event and was appar-
emily delighted with the dangerous sport.
Not yet initiated into the intricacies of the
American bookmakers' methods, his High
ness made no wagers, contenting himself
with being an onIooker. The royal party
was shown every courtesy by President
Thomas H. Williams of the California
Jockey Club and it's officials and left the
track with an evident longing to see more
of the "sport of Kings"
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1896-02-06

side, to connect with the new track for
cyclers that is being constructed south of
of the main drive. The length of the
brldge will be 100 feet, and the approaches
to it VIII be marked by granite posts and
chains between each. Venetian masts at
each end will designate the lines of the
paths for pedestrians and cyclers.
In the cen ter of the bridge there will be
granite base with a statue on it, possibly
an equestrian one, to the right OF which
teams moving in either direction will have
to pass. On each side of the bridge there
will be a highly ornamented balustrade or
parapet bout four feet in height. At the
ends OF these, on each it is proposed TO
place granite bases, on which will rest
groups of bears, emblematic of the State.
Electric lights will illumine the bridge.
Underneath the center of the bridge will
be the tunnel 40 feet long, OF good width,
and 20 feet high from the floor to the GEN.
ter of the arch. The facings will be of
granite, and the arch will be patterned
after the famous arch of Titus in Rome.
The interior of the arch is to be of concrete,
which will be, as to the roof, set in panels
to be arranged in very artistic manner.
On each side of the entrance there will be
| sloping grass-mounds, which will add to
the effect. From the north entrance two
| paths, each twenty feet wide, will diverge,
one toward the northeast and the other to
the southwest, and lead to Fulton street,
near where the main entrance to the Mid
winter Fair was.
From the southern entrance there will
be the path that will lead to the concourse
and one leading to the museum on the
west, and another to the tunnel under the
circular driveway being constructed around
the concourse, leading to the aviary.
'In preparing this design for bridge
and arch" said Ernest Coxhead, "we have
| taken into consideration the fact that the
Commissioners desired something pictur-
esque and attractive, and have, we believe,
produced something that is artistic and
| which will be a credit to the park and
something that the people will feel proud
of. The work will be of the best work
manship and be done in a style the like of
which has never been seen in this City"
Superintendent McLaren stated yester-
day that the contract for the stonework
has not yet been let, but that the excava-
ton and the concrete-work will be done by
men in the employ of the Commissioners.
This new tunnel will furnish a safe pass
age to and from the music course for the
thousands who will visit the spot where
the band will discourse sweet music on
Sunday afternoons.

a Defaulter.
Ho Is Arrested and Acknowledges
Losing About $1,000 by Playing
Against the Races.

r. J. Cooney, collector for the Indian

everlasting disgrace upon himself and his
young wife and child through his passion
for visiting those sinks of iniquity, the
poolrooms, and wasting the money col
lected by him for his employers.
On Tuesday morning Hamilton Page.
president, and G. f. Ochs, secretary, of the
company, called at the Office of the Chief
of Police and reported that Cooney had
embezzled $500 which he had collected
from customer. Detectives Seymour and
Whitaker and Policeman Phillips were de-
tailed on the case and they very quickly
had Cooney under arrest by covering his
home at 1908 Treat avenue and barber
shop and saloon that be used to frequent.
When searched at the City Prison five or
six racetrack handicap cards, a couple of
sporting papers containing the results and
tips of the races several poolroom tickets
and 500 in coin were found in his pockets.
In answer to questions he said he

Sherman & Clay's, where the tickets are
to be sold, as early as 10 A. NJ. yesterday.
There was struggling half-dozen at
first, and the number remained about the
same till toward evening. when it increased
greatly. Before 10 o'clock last night there
were sixty persons by actual count, who
had been engaged to wait out all night to
buy tickets. One or two spectators were
noticed on the sidewalk. It had been
expected there would be rush for the
tickets, and the object was to make money
out of them.
The regulation price is S. for anywhere
on the lower floor, So for the balcony and
81 for the gallery. The admission price to
each place is the same as for a seat.
Paderewski is to open at the California
next Monday night. He will appear after
ward at two matinees, namely, on Wednes-
day and Friday. These are all the per-
formances he is booked to give. Mr.. Sher-
man of Sherman e. Clay said last night
that no more than six tickets would be
sold to any one person.
The Polish pianist has never been here
before. He was engaged to come some
two years ago, but was prevented by q
stress of other entertainments. He is ex-
pected to reach here Sunday.
The ticket-buyers were seated on chairs,
stools and boxes secured from various
places. They made themselves as COM

ment.
Mortimer Has Been Selected by the
Pacific Kennel Club to Judge
Its Show.

At q meeting of the directors of the
Olympic Club last evening the question OF
building a magnificent Sandball court on
a lot that adjoins the building was ar
gued at length and a committee composed
of Messrs. Newha!l, Umbsen and Short
was appointed to estimate the cost of a
tirst-class court and to confer with the
owner of the property in question regard
ing lease of the lot.
Director Short said that handbaIl is now
the most popular of all interior pastimes,
and that a first-cIass court was greatly in
demand
There are at least four hundred mem
bers in this club" said Mr.. Short, "whose
principal means of enjoyment IS hand
ball, and If We cannot succeed in securing
lease of the lot regulation court will be
constructed i'll the rear part of the club
close by the swimming tank. When
everything is in proper shape handbaIl
tournaments will be held quite frequently"
The billiard tournament of the Olympic
Club will commence on the evening of the
1lth inst, and the following are the
entries in the different classes: First
class-Charles H. Williams, Henry B.
Russ, +. Il. Lewis, O. B. Burns and A c..

Clubs rooms in Oakland on Saturday
evening.
The Pacific Kennel Club managed to
secure quorum last evening at its
monthly meeting, which was held in the
Occidental Hotel. III. Bier presided and
Secretary Vernon read several letters from
those interested in kennel matters.
T. J. Watson was appointed by the club
to represent it on the advisory board
which will pass judgment on man
named Shell who was expelled from the
club last year. If the advisory board con-
cludes that Shell has been sufficiently
punished for transgression of the laws OF
the club he may possibly be reinstated.

Coming Investigation Into the
State of the Bering Sea
Fleet.
D1sMAY AMID THE OFFICERS.
The Healy Inquiry Drawing to ;
C1ose-The Daniels Case Next
in Order.

1t now appears as though the Healy in
vestigation were to be merely the premon-
tory rumble preceding seismic upheaval
in the maritime revenue service. A gen
tlenan thoroughly competent to speak on
the matter was heard to remark yesterday:
''The treasury officials at Washington
are about disguised with the tales of
drunkenness, disorder and anarchy in the
Boring Sea fleet, and have made up
their minds to institute a general and
searching inquiry into the actual state OF
things, with view 10 keeping the com Pc
tent officers and getting rid of the re-
mainder. The wedding out process will,
it is believed, result disastrously in the
cases of many officers who now imagine,
or until recently have imagined, that they
were settled for life in an easy. lucrative
service.

The Supervisor and the Committee of

The following communication from the
committee of K. R. B. for the 4th OF March
celebration, indorsing Supervisor King, is
self-expianatory:
SAN FRANCISCO, February 5, 1896.
AL general meeting of the 4th of March
committee of the K. r. B. organization, held in
the publication of articles published in the
san Francisco CALL and Chronicle, which
articles spoke disparingly of Supervisor Joe
King as mem Der of the reception committee
TO receive the Hon. John T. Finnerty, it was
unanimously resolved by all of the mem bers
OF the general committee that the statements
contained in said articles concerning the for
nation OF the committee, and the alleged
ordinations OF the members thereof, were en-
tirely false.
The general committee has full confidence
IN each and every one of the members OF the
reception committee, including Joseph King,
and instead of declining, as Sserted in said
articles, they have each and all OF them ac-
cepted the appointment. The general COM
mittee furthermore believe that the publica-
lions referred to were inspired by malicious
motives and suggested by the enemies of the
Irish national cause.

He kept ALL The MONEY,
Suit to Recover From Barclay
Henley What His Part
ner Pocketed.
A Charge Against Howard MacSherry
That Involves Forgery as Well
as mbezzlement.

Thomas Gibson, resident of Roseburg,
yesterday against Barclay Henley and
Howard MacSherry, attorneys of this
City, to recover S445 alleged to belong to
plaintiff and to have been fraudulently
appropriated by MacSherry.
Gibson alleges that he employed Hen.
ley & MacSherry, and through them an
other attorney, George William Hart OF
New York, to effect the settlement and
distribution of the estate of Sarah NIGEL
hany, deceased, of Brooklyn. Hart was
to receive for his services 40 per cent of the
moneys due Gibson. The work was done
and $40 10 collected, and Hart sent a
draft drawn to the order of Gibson on the
Madison-square Bank for $445 dated Febru-
airy 2, 1893.
The draft was received by the San Fran
cisco firm, and, without authority. in
dorsed by MacSherry as follows: "Pay to
the order of Henley 81 MacSherry, Thomas
Gibson, Henley & MacSherry. Howard
MacSherry." With that Endorsement it
was cashed by the First National Bank.
Hart, it is alleged, made frequent in
qulry by letter as to why the check was
not sent to Gibson, and was answered by
MacSherry to the effect that he had power
of attorney for indorsing and collecting
the money, but did not say as to whether
it had been sent Gibson. To Gibson. Mac
Sherry denied at first that he had received
the money. Later, iii June, MacSherry
wrote that he had received a draft. and
when collected he would remit. Gibson
declares he has never received the money.
although he has since learned the facts in
the case, as he states them. He sues to re-
cover the amount.
