DROWNED IN MENDOZA
Wisconsin University Oarsman
Loses His Life.
Squal Capsizes the Teams Racing Shell
Others Injured.

Madison, Wis, April 7.-While at prac.
tice yesterday afternoon a mile out on
Lake Mendoza a squall struck two shells
manned by oarsmen of the University of
Wisconsin's crew. One man was
drowned and two others are in critical
condition.
The dead:
JOHN DAY, GAINESVILLE, Wis, only son Of
Mrs. jeanette Day.
The injured:
Lester Street, Dixon, Ill.
Curran G. IcConyille, La Crosse, Wis.
Late in the afternoon the boats started
out for short working trip for the men.
At the time the weather did not seem
sQually and the lake was fairly calm.
Within a few moments after the boat
left shore, however, the wind began to
rise, and just as one of the boats was
about to make the turn it was struck by
the squat.
In this boat were P. j. Odea, the as
sistant trainer, Day and McConville.
Water began to roll over the stern of the
it was swamped. The men succeeded in
turning it over and in getting on top Of
the shell. They were soon washed off by
waves. Day, who could not swim, failed
to regain his hold and was drowned.
The other boat, with Trainer Andrew
Ouea ana street, was some distance
away when the first boat settled and i'm
mediately turned to go to the rescue.
The waves were too high for it also,
and it was soon swampol. Meanwhile
men came from shore and picked up the
occupants of the first boat, but they
failed to see that the second boat was
also in trouble and the latter's oarsmen
were not rescued until later, the surviv-
ing occupants of the first boat having
been in the icy water about fifteen min
utes and those of the second thirty min
utes.
Day had records which numbered him
among the best ten all-around athletes in
America. He was considered one of the
best men on the crew. Street and Nc
Conville also are good oarsmen, but they
probably will not be able to row again
this year, both being in precarious con-
dition on account of their terrible suf-
fering in the cold water.
Days body was recovered at 10 O clock
last night

The vote for aldermen as compared
with the city tickets shows surprising
and apparently inconsistent results. For
instance, the Democratic city ticket car
ried the Fourth comfortably, but two
Republicans were elected to the council
from that ward. The Democrats car
ried the Eighteenth ward by $50, but
the Democratic nominees for aldermen
received the closest call Democrats have
ever had in that ward, while the Re
publican nominee for supervisor pulled
through. Both aldermen from the Sixth
ward are Republican, but the supervisor
is Democrat. Great interest was man
ifested in the Eleventh ward. Rudolph

At THE SHRINE OF ART,
Open House for Everybody
at the Hopkins In.
Stitute.
A Fine Collection of Oil Paintings,
Water Colors and Statuary
on View.

Five thousand persons, at a conserva-
tive estimate, attended yesterdays free
exhibition in the Mark Hopkins Institute
of Art. All day long, and until 10 o'clock
at night, the palatial edifice was thronged
with people, many of whom remained for
hours. Four policemen were on duty to
preserve order, but they earned their pay
easily, the only busy member of the
quartet being the oungest and best look
ing, who ignored the man-made works of
art upon the walls in order to study tn e
Creators handiwork as exem plitied in the
fair female forms which fitted past him.
All the pictures are worth seeing and
some are real works of art. Ernest c.
Peixotto has several good things. particu-
larly his painting in oil, with the Dolls, "
and his life-like portrait OF Horace G.
Plat.
Another gem is Sidney j.. Yards lovely
water-color, 1.-THE Close of Day." 1t rep
resents flock of sheep huddling together
in Q verdant valley just after sunset. The
moment of night is depicted with a rich
warm coloring, as restful to the gaze as it
is true to nature.
Rupert Schmid has fine portrait bust
of General Grant, and Massimiliano Poli's
dainty wood carvings, looking like sculp-
lures in ancient ivory, were much ad-
mired.
An interesting group in the conserva-
tory comprises the three prize paintings
in the Phelan contest. The subject is
THE Discovery of the Bay of San Fran
cisco by Portala, and it is interesting to
observe the different way in which each of
the successful contestants treats the same
theme. Mathews, Keith and Pissis are
the happy trio, and their masterpieces
merit careful study, and what is more can
stand it.

announces that hereafter the artrooms
will remain open on Sundays, from 10 A. M.
to 5P. M, with an organ recital during the

Miss Calhoun declares che is in San
Francisco solely to visit her relatives and
to recuperate. Already the absence from
professional cares seems to be benefiting
her, for, aside from a slight nervousness.
there is nothing in her demeanor to indi-
cate that by sheer force of hard, honest
work she has succeeded in winning the
commendation of jealous public. 1t is
reported that her voice has given out
temporarily, and, while this may be true
as regards its capability to stand the
strain of continuous stage performances,
there is soft melody about it in CONVEX
sation which would suggest anything but
impaired vocal organs. This visit, like
previous ones, will be but brief, and Miss
Calhoun will haste away to seek new
laurels across the water.
