A PIONEER CHEMIST
JOINS THE MAJORITY
DEATH OF JOHN REYNOLDS IN
THIS CITY YESTERDAY.
Was President of the California
Chemical Works and Made
Many Discoveries.

John Reynolds, president Of the Cali
fornia Chemical Works and vice president
of the San Francisco Sulphur Works, died
at his home, 2416 Howard street, of par
alysis yesterday. Deceased was nearly
70 years of age and was one of the pioneer
citizens and business men of the COM
munity He was highly respected in COM
mercial as we'll as social circles, and his
death will be deeply regretted. Reynolds
came to America from Ireland on the
Patrick Henry" in 1S4S He had studied
chemistry in London and after remain
ing in the East for a short time drifted
West to st. Louis, where he established a
chemical works. Later he came to San
Francisco and in 1862 constructed a gold
and silver refinery on Brannan street In
the same year he settled at Washoe, Ne
vada, and in Carson City, Nevada, ex-
perimented on bullion refining, evolving
a refining process of much value. At the
present day this process supersedes all
others where bullion refining is done
Reynolds mastered the more exact
science of chemistry as it is known to-
day, and a number of important discov-
cries are credited to him in his chosen
line of work.
The deceased mans ancestors were the
Lords of the McGrannuills (now Angli-
Rynn. He has been a widower for a num-
Der of years and leaves one son, George
T. Reynolds, to survive him. In 1891 he
purchased an extensive vineyard in Napa
County and since that time has been
noted as a wine grower.

them five days to clear out and they evil
IDENTIFY determined to make some money
to pay their fares.
Yesterday afternoon George Rays, a
discharged soldier from the Idaho Regi-
ment, who arrived on the Senator from
Manila, Thursday night on his way home
was walking along Kearny street when
'Dink" accosted him and asked him to
direct him to Golden Gate Park. Kays
said he was stranger and "Dink'' soon
made friends with him. They had a drink
together and then 'Dink" steered him to
a room in the building on the corner of
Pine and Kearny streets.
There were five or six men in the room
and game of poker was proposed. Rays
got some chips and in a few minutes had
got outside he concluded he had been
swindled and notified Policeman Capels
Rays told Capels he had left ''Dink'' in
Donleavy's saloon, ALI Kearny street, and
as soon as Capels entered "Dink' ran out
the rear door, closely pursued by Capels.
He got into Somers street, and as he
a man and before he could recover him
self CapelS was upon him, and "Dink'
quietly surrendered.
Wilson is an Eastern crook who first
came into prominence here in the early
part of 1898, when he was suspected Of
being the companion of Louis Matheny,
who was shot and killed by a policeman
in Oakland while committing a burglary
He was shortly afterward arrested for
petty larceny and burglary. He was SEN
fenced to six months by the late Judge
Campbell on the petty larceny charge and
gave straw" bonds for his release on the
burglary charge. BY some blunder the
fact was overlooked that he had to serve
six months for petty larceny and "Dink, =
as soon as he got his liberty, disappeared.
1t was then discovered that his bonds
were worthless.
A young girl, a bookkeeper for her
father, was infatuated with Wilson and
she also disappeared. It was through her
that he was traced to New York and ar
rested. He was brought back to this city
July 27, 1895, by Detective Whitaker, and
August 80 he was sent to San Quentin for
four years. He was released August 80
last year and was restored to citizenship.

to the crime, subsequently exposing Brsn-
nan. With these two men in the tanks

DR.. TlLLMAN AND HIS
SMALLPOX PATIENT
TWO YOUNG MEDICAL HEROES
VOLUNTEERED.
The Case at the Pest House Real
Smallpox, ane Many May Have
Been Exposed.

The case of smallpox discovered in a
Post-street lodging house on Sunday and
promptly removed to the Pesthouse has
developed into a severe form of the dis
ease, and DR.. Frank Tillman, the heroic
inferno of the City and County Hospital
who volunteered to care for the case, has
settled to a three weeks quarantined
stay with the patient who will probably
pull through.
The patient is Charles Tully, a single
man, 30 years of age, and a brakeman.
He started from Colorado some weeks
ago to work his way 10 California by way
of New Mexico and Arizona, in which re-
gion he was exposed to the disease.
When the nature of his Illness was dis
covered the disease had passed the
period of incubation and had developed
seven days before, so that for nearly that
time his disease was infectious A good
many people were thus doubtless ex-
posed who will not be protected by the
burning of the bedding, ETC., in his room
by the health authorities.
When the case was hustled to the
Twenty-sixth street hospital on Sunday
afternoon, DR.. Sussdorf, resident physi-
clan at the City and County Hospital,
stated the situation to the seven or eight
young doctors acting as internes, saying
that a physician was needed but that no
one was compelled to go. There were two
volunteers it is reported, Drs. Roche and
Tillman. DR.. Roche was serving in a
ward from which he could not well be
spared, and DR.. Tillmans insistence on
this point won him the commission. With
hastaily gathered medicines and supplies
he hustled away to a three weeks retire
ment from the world amid smallpox and
leproSy.
DR. Tillman graduated from Toland
Medical College about six months ago, is
26 years old and has just begun promis-
ing career.

The Pilferers Get Or Of the House

From an Evening at the

Burglars entered the home Of A. P.
Sartori, 1925 Sacramento street, late
last night, and carried off jewelry val
ued at $500. They were disturbed in
their pilfering by Mr.. and Mrs. Sar-
tori returning home from the theater.
Only the choice and most valuable
possessions of the Sartoris were appro
priated by the nocturnal visitors. The
haul consists of a gold watch, emerald
ring, diamond earrings and a diamond
crescent pin. Clothes and ornaments
were packed in heaps by the burglars
ready Tor a removal, but they were left
when the return of the Sartoris made
escape a matter of immediate necessity.
The house had been unoccupied since
o'clock, when Mrs. Sartori left to meet
her husband at Campi's restaurant, of
which he is the proprietor. About s
o'clock the occupants of the fiat below
heard sounds above, but they supposed
the Sartoris We're at home 1t was mid
night when they returned from the
theater and the burglars were still on
the premises. Mr.. Sartori opened the
front door with his latch ko-- and as
he did so the door in the back part Of
the house suddenly slammed. He
thinks the burglars escaped by means
of the stairs in the rear. The burglary
was Immediately reported to the police.
