SUDDEN DEATH
Of ], H, MANGELS
The Bursting of a Blood
Vessel Caused His
End.
Deceased Was a Member of the
Firm of Tillmann &
Bendel.
He Was Only 81, and Was Well
Known and Esteemed In Busi.
ness Circles.

John Henry Mangels. one of San Fran
ciscos youngest and most respected busi-
ness men, a member of the wholesale
firm of Tillmann & Bendel, and native
son, died some what suddenly at 5 o'clock
Yesterday morning at the residence OF his
stepmother, Mrs. Claus Mangeis, 25l8
Howard street.
The news of Mr.. Mangels totally unex-
pected death at the early age of 81 years
and months will come as severe shock
to wide circle OF friends by whom he
was known and admired, both in COM
mercial and private life.
Mr.. Mangels apparently enjoyed excel
lent health until quite recently, and did
not cease to personally attend to his busl-
ness duties until last Saturday, when his
symptoms became so alarming as to COM
pei him to take to his bed. His illness Is
said to have been droDsical in character,
and toward the end water in the lungs
made respiration difficult. DR.. John
Moss, who was at once called in, also
found, upon examination, that other IN
ternal orsans were seriously affected. A
fatal termination, however, was hardly
anticipated, nor did the patient himself
seem conscious of his precarious condi-
ton.
The effort involved in breathing must
have been too much for his rapidly wan
ing strength, and eventually caused the
rupture of blood-vessel in the brain, death
ensuing soon afterward. He passed away
quietly and without any pain whatever.
in the presence OF several relatives, in
Guiding his uncle, Claus Spreckels and his
cousin, J. d. Spreckels, whose residence
ad joins that of Mrs. Mangels.
lOhn Henry MaOoels was horn in San
Francisco and received a public school
education in this City. He became a
memb.r of the firm of Tillmann & Rendel
about six years ago, but was also privately
connected with many important business
enterprises.
He belonged to Stanford Parlor, N. s..
G. W., and was an active member of the
Olympic and Bohemian clubs and of the
Pacific Yacht Club. He always displayed
keen interest In the affairs of the Ma
tional Guard OF California, ranking as
major in that body and acting on the staff
| of General James.
His popularity in all these walks of life
was deservedly great, and those who knew
him in either one or all of them will
deeply deplore his untimely demise in the
very prime of manhood. He was related
to the Spre ckels family by virtue of his
fathers union with sister of Claus
Spreckels. Mr.. Mangels Sr. died several
years ago. Deceased has two sisters liv-
ing, one of whom is the wife OF F. Till
mann.
The funeral will take place to- morrow
afternoon from the German church of ST.
Mark. corner of Cough and O'FarrelI
streets.

SUICIDE IN THE HILLS.

The Body Recovered and the Identity
Established by Letters Found.
The body of the man seen by James
Cameron and Roth Haskell was recovered
by the Coroner on the Stanford Heights
near the Corbett road yesterday forenoon
and brought to the Morgue.
From letters and other documents found
in his clothing it was ascertained that his
name was A. H. Griesbach, and that he
was employed by the publishing firm ci
ID. Appleton d Co. of the East.
A room key with the tag 46 was found
in his pocket, which from other lndica-
tions is supposed to be a kew to room in
the Cosmopolitan Hotel on Fifth street
The pistol that succeeded in sending the
unfortunate man to the other world was
found lying alongside of him.

j, {. Nea1on and L. f. Bonnet Defeat
Champions j. Riordan and p. t.
Donnelly.
The San Francisco handball court was
crowded yesterday, and several attractive
games were witnessed. The greatest in
terest centered in a game in which J. c.
Nealon and T. F. Bonnet played against
J. G. Riordan, the coast champion, and
P. T. Donnelly, amateur champion. The
game was marked by brilliant rallies and
splendid service.
Riordan and DonneIly strove hard to
avert defeat, as Nealon and Bonnet lowered
their colors few weeks ago. but luck was
against them. Nealon was in great form,
and was keenly on the alert, never miss
ing ball, while Bonnet played with his
usual skill and judgment Donnelly has
been singuIarly unfortunate this year, but
he is not by any means discouraged.
Phil Ryan and Dan Rodgers did their
level best to defeat George Mcdonald and
W. Hamilton, but were unsuccessful,
Rodgers and Rodgers blamed Ryan, and a
sngie-handed game will probably be the
result to determine the vexed question.
There were no games at the Union court
yesterday owing, probably, to the fact
that the court is uncovered.
Following were the games at the San
Francisco court:
M. Basch and r. Hausman defeated E.
Downs and t. Foley, 21-13. 17-21, Glib.
G. Mcdonald and w. Hamilton defeated P.
