She Wants to Join Her Husband
in the Spirit Land When
Under Them.
IS NOW IN A PADDED CELL
The Doctors at the Receiving Hos.
pital Can See No Signs of In.
sanity in Her.

The case of Mrs. Allie Gender, widow
53 years of age, will form subject for in
vestigation by the Insanity Commission
ers this morning.
She is in padded cell in the Receiving
Hospital charged with insanity, but any
one who talks with her cannot see the
slightest sign OF mental alteration in hel
conduct or speech. Yet her friends say
she is crazy, and too dangerous to be al
large.
Twelve years ago her husband was killed
in railroad accident. He had an accl-
dent policy for $500, and this sum was
paid to the widow. or rather to Albert
Shainwald, her brother-in-law, living at
207 Geary street, who was administrator Of
her husbands estate.
The widow was left with three young
children, boy and two girls. They were
put in home and the mother worked
hard to support herself and them. The
$500 was placed on deposit in the San
Francisco Savings Union bank and with
interest it has reached the sum of $2100. OF
this amount $500 has been withdrawn and
loaned to G. Petrie, printer in Alameda.
Mrs. Gender about two years ago went
to live with her brother-in-law, but three
weeks ago she removed to 238 Sixth street,
where she engaged a room. According TO
the landlady, Mrs. George, she showed
symptoms of insanity shortly after being
in her house and on Saturday she became
violent and threatened to take her life, so
DR.. Bohm was sent for and he ordered
that she be sent to the Receiving Hospital.
Her chief hallucination is that her hus-
bands spirit is constantly with her.
When walking on the street she imagined
hat har hnos do J., II
verse with him as if he were in the flesh
at night she would alarm every one in
the house by going from room to room
searching for her husband and when she
could not find him she became violent and
had to be placed under restraint.
When she became calm she would talk
nationally and say she wanted to Join her
husband in the spirit land and if the
money was only divided among her chill
dren she would soon be with him.
The Oldest, young man % years of age,
is in Mendocino County, where he has
bought some Government land. One of
the girls is married and the other is a
servant with family on Union street.
Apparently the money is not to be di-
vided till the youngest. who is now 20
| years of age. attains the age of 2i.
| Speaking of her arrest Mrs. Gender said
yesterday: sl think it is all a Joke to
keep me here. was in my room vester.
day when two men wearing blue uniforms
came and asked me to put on my shoe.
and come with them. Then they put me
in patrol wagon and brought me here
| But | don't know why. l am not crazy
and | cannot see why l should be kept
here"
The doctors at the hospital who have
conversed with her say that she does not
exhibit the slightest symptoms of in.
sanity, but the landlord and landlady o.
the lodging-house at 238 Sixth Street, DR.
Bohm and others say that she has spells
and when under them she is violently
/ insane.

AMBITIOUS YOUNG JAPS,
They Are Now Anxious to Join
the National Guard of
California.
Success in the Parade Inspires a De
sire for Something More Than
Cherry B ossoms.

The ambitious little brown men who cut
such swell figure in the National cele-
bration on Saturday last are not satisfied
with the laurels earned on that occasion.
They simply had taste of genuine Amer
lean patriotism, ana now they long for a
closer bond.
In brief, the Mikado's subjects, or,
rather, those marching in the parade, are
anxious to join the National Guard of
California How to go about it, pre-
Stunning they are eligible, is what troubles
them, II the thing can be done, however,
it will not be long before the first Amer
ican Japanese military will be ushered
into existence.
: The Japanese club wss organized about
two years ago for social purposes only.
AS it grew in strength, however, the war
spirit developed, with the result that the
men were instructed iE the different move
ments. The club now numbers fifty men,
bers, the military end being under the
command of S. Yamato. There was some
little friction with the Fourth of July COM
mittee as TO how the club should appear
in the parade. Several loyal members in
sisted on carrying japanese flags along
with the red, white and blue. The a sahi
band at first refused to play unless this
concession was granted.
flnaIly, however, everything was ar
ranged satisfactorily, and now the gallant,
wnite-suited JupS want % become genuine
American soldiers. Tn eyare anxious to
trade the pretty white duck suits and
sprigs OF cherry blossoms for regulation
uniforms and guns that will shoot.
Commander Yamato has as vet taken
no steps toward accomplishing the end
desired but during the coming week will
enter into correspondence with Governor
Budd. In the meantime the Japanese
club meets nightly at 41S Post street and
Upton's military tactics are taken in doses
to suit the size of the room and the Capacity
OF the aspirants for National Guard honors.

The family in the Zoo in Golden Gate
Park is increasing. About ten days ago
a baby elk made it's appearance in the
deer park. the first one born there, and
yesterday morning another one came.
Within an hour after that the family in
the buffalo paddock was increased by one
The new arrivals were concealed by their
parents in the brush and several DAYS will
elapse before the youngsters will come
out from under cover to be gazed at by
those who delight in looking at the ami
mails and feeding them.
The only work of importance being done
in the park at this time is on the bicycle
track. When that is finished the wheel
men VIII be required to ride upon it.
To-day carpenters will commence put
ting up the partitions in the annex to the
museum, and worBmen will place in posi-
ton the marble arch which will be the en-
trance to the room in which the minerals
are to be displayed. This is the arch
which was at the Midwlnter Fair. and
eral exhibit at the Colum bian Exposition
in Chicago.
]. l.. Bardwell has donated carved
wooden mask, the work of Hirazuma, a
noted japanese wood-carver; the head of
a seal and some antique pottery from
mated very rare specimen of the owl
family.
On the Fourth more than 5000 persons
visited the museum.
The weather was not very clear yester-
day, still there were a great number of
people at "SutroviIie by the Sea" to watch
the many attractions, including the per-
formance OF a tlght-rope walker, who
made successful trip in spite of the
heavy wind that was blowing.
Many within the baths were delighted
with the exhibition designated as 'the
water carnival" There were a mum Der of
barges and gondolas, bright in colors and
tinsel and filled with young women and
men in the picturesque costumes of
Venice, and when they were all in line in
tow of a small steam launch they pre-
sented pretty sight.
The first was guard boat with herald
which announced the approach of the
Doge and Duchess, and then came a shell

complete humiliation of the man that
planned it. After he had made all ar
rangements for the walkout he lost his
nerve and remained at his place.

mother of one of the "boys' went to
the hotel yesterday to attempt to have her
son reinstated, though he himself refused
to return.
Twelve new men have been employed to
fill the places of those that quit and OF
the doorooys that were released recently
in expectation of the introduction OF the
extra work to be given the bellboy force.
All the bel!boys are now working under
the regulations that maintained before the
strike.
One of the old men says that the men
who went out expected too good fare for
hotel keep. "The grub amt any too good
it amt the best in the market or what the
guests get, but it's a darn sight better
than the help get at any of the other big
hotels in town"

accommodate the twelve women, who will
occupy the remaining rooms tonight.
There were twenty-five inmates and two
babies sheltered in the building, and as it
was impossible to accommodate all in the
undestroved rooms, We procured outside
lodgings for ten of them. They will re-
main in their new lodgings until we pro-
cure another building. 1t is impossible to
ascertain just how the fire started, but l
am inclined to believe that it was caused
by bomb"
Tears dim the eyes of the inmates of the
charitable institution as they look upon
the ruins of their once comfortable home.
1t had been the only home they had known
for many months, and it was pitiful to see
them look with sorrowful eyes at the
charred timbers and blackened embers.
They moved in and out of the burned
rooms, over the unsteady floor, and poked
into the ashes in search of little relics
which they had long treasured and had at
last been taken from them. Their posses
sions were few before the fire, now they
have none and they are heartbroken.
Captain McFee, whose headquarters are
on Market street, near Seventh, searched
many hours yesterday afternoon and last
evening for a suitable house for the
woman's shelter. He failed to find one OF
suitable size and rent however, but will
continue his search to-day.
1--WE lost fully $1,000 by to-day's fire."
said Captain McFee last evening; that is.
it will cost that much to refurnish new
building and again place the institute on
on solid basis. We need help from the
charirably disposed, and l hope we will re-
ceive assistance"

In the Capitol Rotunda.

The unprecedented distinction which
awaits Mr.. Cleveland is that his portrait
and figure are to appear in the great
frleze OF the rotunda of the Capitol. Sem
ator Hansbrough and his committee on
library have decided to finish out the
frieze, on which work was stopped seven
years ago, by adopting for the vacant pam
els these three historic scenes: ~ the
discovery of gold in California; (2) the
driving OF the last spike in the trans
continental railway; (3) the formal
opening OF the Columbian Expo
sltion at Chicago by President
Cleveland. Sketches of three scenes
have been made by the artist Costagginni,
and In few days these sketches will be on
exhiDliion in the marble room of the SEN
ate. Probably they will create good deal
OF sensation. The Democratic ana Popu-
ilsilc Senators who hate Mr.. Cleveland so
intensely are expected TO put in a vigorous
protest against painting the face and figure
OF the PRESIDENT in the great frieze, there
10 remain as long as the Republic stands.
Ine idea is repugnant to them, and few
OF them WHO have heard of the plan have
sworn to kick up such a row as never be-
fore seen in the Capitol. According to their
notion 1T would be an eternal disgrace to
the United States to put the President up
tnere among the saints and heroes of the
Repuolic.-W Washington correspondent of
the Chicago Times Herald.
