DARING BURGLARS AT WORK.
A Gents Furnishing Store on Kearny
Street Entered and Valuable
Goods Stolen.

A daring burglary in Selig's gents
furnishing store, 21S Kearny street. was
reported at police headquarters yesterday
morning and Captain Bohen detailed De-
teCtive O'Dea on the case.
The store had been entered between
11:40 O'Clock Saturday night, when it was
closed, and 7:30 yesterday morning, when
the burglary was discovered. The daring
character of the burglary was shown by
the fact that entrance and exit had been
made by the burglars through the tran
som over the front door, and that besides
the regular policeman on the beat there
is a special Waterman on the block.
The interior. Of the store showed that
the, burglars had taken ample time to
make selection of the most expensive
and less bulky goods Boxes had been
emptied Of their contents and were
thrown on the floor, but no attempt had
been made to rob the safe or cash
The value of the articles stolen amounts
to about $500 and they consist of forty
one dozen silk handkerchiefs twenty
boxes of gloves, five dozen neckwear, two
dozen link sleeve buttons and six dozen
assorted plated collar buttons No trace
Of the burglars has as yet been obtained.

noblest knight who ever wore an armor is the
chevaiier of the cross. With his loins grit about

ness and his feet shod with the preparation of
peace, with the shield of faith, the helmet of
salvation and the sword of the spirit, our mod
knight is prepared to meet the archenemy
OF human souls and all the cohorts of evil.
DIR. Locke then defined sin, and spoke
of its origin and the various theories of
the devil, and what the Bible means by
Satan and temptation and then discussed
at some length what ne termed the mis-
takes of the devil" He referred to the
patriarch Job, who, after repulsing the
temptations of the evil one, was given
twice as much as he had before"
Among the other caiamtous blunders
made by the enemy of souls, he spoke of
the sale of indulgences and the protest of
Luther, of the persecution of the Puri-
tans in Europe. of the introduction of
slavery into the New World and how the
freedom of all the slaves of Christendom
was thereby precipitated. He also re-
ferred to the treatment which the Bible
had received at the hands of its enemies,
and he closed by speaking of the evil of
lntemperance. His argument was that
all of these Vaccinations for the over
throw of righteousness had but aroused
the people of God to greater activity:
and that the citadels of evil would some
which they occupied should be known
no more forever. In referring to the
anti-canteen law, he said:

CHARLES H. LEAVrTT DEAD.
One of San Francisco's Earliest Me
chanics Passes Away.

Charles H. Leavitt, one of San Fran
ciscos earliest mechanics, died at his res
idence, $40 Ellis street, yesterday morning
at the age of 70 years. The deceased was
one of the pioneers who in his time and
day helped to build San Francisco from a
tented village to a great metropolitan
city.
He arrived in San Francisco in the
month of January, 1850, at the age of 20
years, coming from York. Me. Immediate
ly on his arrival he associated himself
with the Pioneer Iron Works. then located
on Jackson street, near Montgomery, and
at once set to work in turning out such
castings as were then in use for the build
ings about the city. His first and princi-
pal heavy contract was in casting the iron
doors, still in use, for the Broadway Jail
and the old City Hall prison. From Jack
son street the Pioneer Iron Works was
moved to 227 Beale street, where the
foundry was located for a number of
years and known as "Kittredge & Leav-
tits Safe and Lock Mandatory" At
this place considerable work was turned
out for the then modern buildings going
up in and about San Francisco. One of
the, heavy contracts undertaken and
pushed to satisfactory finish was the
iron work for the State Capitol dome at
Sacramento, which was put in place I'M
der the immediate supervision of Leavitt.
ne +COHSlIuCllO1 VI dill the steel vaults
now in use at theSafe Deposit building at
California and Montgomery streets, the
construction of the gas tanks and piping
in use at the Hotel del Monte, the iron
work for the Palace and Baldwin hotels,
with several other buildings, were the
work of the deceased. In former years
the only safes in use in this city, and on
the coast for that matter were
those turned out by Kittredge &c
Leavitt. AS an expert on locks
Leavitt had no superior in his
day, and even up to a short time before
his death his services were invariably
called for by bankers and merchants to
open safes that had become refractory in
their workings or where combinations had
been lost
One of Leavitt's room-mates for a num-
Der of years was Billy O'Brien of bo-
nanza fame, when that genial old man con-
Quoted a whisky saloon in connection with
Millionaire Flood on Washington street.
Injuries to his eyesight caused him to
retire from business about ten years ago,
since which time he lived quietly with his
wife and two daughters at the place
where he died. His funeral will be held
tomorrow at 2 o'clock from his late resi-
dence, with interment at Masonic Gene
terry.

ONLY ONE BID
MADE FOR THE
CLIFF HOUSE
G. E. Loose Alone in
the Field.
HIS OFFER TO BE REDUCED
CONSIDERS HIS ORIGINAL FIG
URE TOO HIGH.
HIS OFFER TO BE REDUCED
Pabst Brewing Company Not a Com
petitor, but Interested in the
Furniture of the Sea-
side Resort.

w. A. Loose of Bodie Cal. is authority
for the statement that his brother, c. E.
Loose of Provo, Utah, is the only bidder
in the field for the Cliff House property.
In published article it was made to APP
pear that there was a spirited competition
among local and Eastern capitalists for
the acquisition Of the historic resort. c.
E. Loose, who has amassed a fortune in
mining, desired the property as an in
vestment and bid 100000 for it. Accord
ing to his brother, who is at present in
this city, this is the only written bid that
has been filed with A. ]. Rich & Co., who
are engineering the sale of the site. In
discussing the matter yesterday Mr..
Loose said
81 am quite positive that my brothers
bid of 500, 900 for the Cliff House property
is the only one that has been made. I
have been busy prosecuting inquiries on
the proposition and have communicated
TO him the result of my observations,
which may cause him to materially scale
down the price he has offered
I'm the first place the property cost in
all but $4,000, and the Pabst Brewing
Company put in about $4,000 worth of fur
niture. The only interest of the beer con-
Germ is to get back the money it put in.
The report that there was a scramble for
the property was made probably for the
very purpose of bringing other prospec-
tive purchasers in the field. The brewing
company has made no offer of s150,O00
my brother has considerable ready
cash which he desires to invest, but he
wants a fair interest for his money. 1
have since learned that the rental of the
Cliff House, which was originally $1,000
month, has been reduced TO 500, and even
at the lower figure the rent is not always
forthcoming and is now several months in
arrears. 1t was my brothers intention to
spend S25 900 additional in improving the
seaside resort. have advised him that
SIS 900 is a fair price for it and this, with
the $25, 900 for repairs, will bring it up to
the original figure of 500 600.
good one, as it is not likely that there
will ever be another cliff house built and
oily 1t was through Mr. wilkins, friend
of, my brother, that the idea was con-
ceived to acquire possession.
at is nv brothers option to reduce his
bid if he so desires, and it is highly prob
able that $4,000 is as high as he will go.
At that figure he can expect fair return
on his investment

GUNST STARTS FOR EUROPE.
The Junior Police Commissioner Will
Spend Six Months Abroad.

Police Commissioner Moses A Gunst
left on last nights overland train for New
York, where he will take passage for
Europe. Mrs. Gunst accompanied him.
They will remain away for six months.
during which time they will journey leis-
urely through the pleasant places in the
old world.
At a recent meeting of the Police Com
missioners Mr. Gunst was granted a leave
of absence from the sittings of the board
so as to enable him to take the trip. He
and his physicians decided that the rest
he needed could not be obtained in this
city, where he had so many calls upon
his time and energy from public and pri-
vate interests. Something less than a year
ago the Police Commissioner took SIM
liar vacation without receiving much ben
eft.
