ANNIE CONROY'S DEATH.
The Young Lady Did Not Commit Sui
eide, but Made Mistake in
Taking Medicine.

Taking Medicine.
The statements published yesterday
morning to the effect that Miss Annie
Conroy had committed suicide are posi-
lively denied by her sister Lizzie, her
father, and also Dy her brother law,
]. T. Wiseman, who resides at 506B Turk
street. They have authorized Clay w.
Taylor TO make the following statement of
the facts in the case:
The young lady, Annie Conroy. was
sufferer from heart disease and rheuma-
tism. She procured from Mrs. Ferrall, the
landlady at 532 Jessie street, two bottles of
medicine, the contents of one to be taken
inwardIy and the other for outside appli-
cation. The same kind of medicine had
brought relief to the landlady's niece and
so Mrs. Ferrall prescribed it for Miss Con-
roy.
J. C. st. John was sent for Monday with
reference TO a business proposition. He
was in no sense the lover or beloved of
Miss Annie Conroy. The business with
him pertained to negotiation for loan
of money. The Conroy ladies' owned tim
ber land in Shasta County and desired to
pledge that property as security for loan
to enable them to establish a lodging
house here. OF this land-ownership Clay
w. Taylor is familiar. During the inter-
view Miss Annie Conroy reached for her
medicine and took dose. Immediately
after she swallowed it she exclaimed to
her sister: "Oh, Lizzie, have made a
mistake and taken the wrong medicineW
Her sister Lizzie ran for salt and at once
directed 81. John to run Tor doctor.
When DIR. Fitch arrived he found the girl
unconscious and had her sent to the Re-
ceiving Hospital, where she died Tuesday
evening.
The family is greatly grieved over the
publication of stories that the young lady
took her own life by design. and desire
that the widest publicity should be given
tn the denial

The Imposing Edifice for
the Sacred Heart
Parish.
It Will Be of Brick and Stone
and an Ornament to the
City.
D1GN1F1ED CLASSIC BEAUTY.
Construction Will Be Commenced
Without Delay and Pushed to
Completion.

It will be only matter of a very short
time now until the Sacred Heart parish
will have an imposing church at the south
east corner of Fell and Fillmore streets.
This edifice, its builders say, will rank
among the best monumental buildings of
San Francisco and will be an ornament to
the CITY. From its commanding location
at the top of an eminence it will be seen
from almost all parts of town and its lofty
tower will be one of the familiar land
marks.
The Rev. James Flood, pastor OF the Sa-
cred Heart parish has decided to build his
new church OF buff Roman brick with
terra Gotta trimmings, and stone columns
at the vestibule. The Italian renaissance
style, combining imposing outlines with
simplicity of detail. so as to be very effect
i've, has been selected.
1t is the intention to build at present
only so much of the church as can be
erected without interfering with the ex-
isting church and to build the rem aiming
portion as the funds become available.
Construction will be commenced immedi-
ately.
The church will be classic in outline and
details and the principal feature will be a

of the building. This tower is in the Italian
campanile style, and is at once simple ana
effective. throughout the design the aim
has been TO get an effective outline with
out excessive ornamentation.
The main portico at the west front is 30
feet long and 26 feet high, and is sup
ported by four stone columns, between
which columns are the three entrances to
the vestibule, all inclosed by handsome
wroughtiron gates. The church will be
155 feet long 81 feet wide and 49 feet
high.
The interior is designed specially with a
view of future decorations. Pilasters with
Corinthian caps divide the side walls and
