When She Died,

San Francisco, Feb. S.-After making
a tour of Alaska and saving several
thousand dollars, Angela Cheresa An
tollguccl, an Italian woman, aged 30
years, met her death in Golden Gate park
Late yesterday afternoon. Heart disease
is the cause of death, evidently, as she
had suffered for months with pains in
that organ. She was riding a bicycle on
Strawberry Hill, near the park, when
she toppled over and fell to the ground.
She died in "a buggy while being taken
to a hospital. "A search Of her clothing
developed the fact that she carried $12,-
600 in drafts and coin and jewelry VAL
ued at over $1,000.
An account of her death is given by
Alfred Maury, who was with the Woln-
am. Maury is a Frenchman and about
As Years old. He says tina they went
to Alaska together two years ago. They
conducted a grocery store in Dawson.
About a month ago the woman suffered
from heart trouble and they decided to
come Y OF the aiming place with the
Fortune they had made. They arrived
in this city last Tuesday and took rooms
at 515 Kearny street. a thrse-story lodg-
ing house conducted by a French wom-
an. The latter woman denied that the
couple lived in her house.
Maul'y says that since their arrival
MISS AulOlS uCCI Hdu Oecn under treat
ment for heart trouble. When they left
their lodgings yesterday they went to
the Copper Medical college, where she
was treated, and thence they went to
the park. where they hired bicycles.
They had just passed the bridge on
feeling faint. They rested a few min
utes and then r~amounted. They had
gone only a few feet when Miss An
onguc collapsed. A buggy driven by
Richard 'O'Connor conveyed the woman
to the Park Emergency hospital, but
as there was no doctor there she was ia
ken to Mt. Zion hospital, Suffer street,
near Scott. She was dead when taken
from the buggy.
The remains were taken charge Of by
Deputies Meehan and Flanagan. They
made a search of her clothing and found
the following valuables: A certificate Of
deposit for 5000 in favor of Maury on
the Bank of British North America Of
B. CT; a customers draft on
the First National Bank of Juneau for
$4,000 and ~greenAbcks aggregating $215.
The jewelry consisted of one gold breast
pin with five diamonds in it: "a gold ring
with a large diamond; mother gold .ring
with three large diamonds; a gold ring
with the design OF a heart and a large
diamond, a plain gold ring, and a ring
with three small diamonds.
She Wore a heavy gold chain about her
shoulders, with a charm containing sew
eral designs emblematic of the Klondike,
and a pair of earrings with large sap
phires. The property has been turned
over to Public Administrator Boland,
who will apply for letters of adminis-
tration Of the Woman's estate. Maury
says that the draft and certificate belong
to HIM and that he gave them to the
woman for safe keeping.
Mr.. Wilbur of the Public Administra-
tors office visited the rooms occupied by
the couple. He found them filled with
costly things that ave been gathered in
a tour that almost circled the globe. 1t
appears that they have travelled together
for twelve years. They have visited
Paris and Pretoria and have toured
Algiers. The trunks of the dead woman
are filled with costly laces and furs,
From the klondike they have brought
several bags of nuggets worth thousands
of dollars.
A letter written several years ago by
| the Princess Ghykia was also. founo.
! Princess Ghykia is a sister of the Queen
of Servia. The letter explained the re-
! grets of THE writer for not being able to
keep an engta 6 cement made with the dead
woman Miss Antonucci was a sculptor's
model, it appears, and acted in that ca
! pacfty for the princess, who was an
amateur sculptress. The writer said that
as the woman had made an engagement
she would like to have her pose for her
bosom friend, Mile. Wendell. For some
| years the deceased followed the occupa-
tion of a variety actress. Several pic
lures taken in Dawson were found. In
one she sat on the back of a large St.
Bernard dog.
