LOSES HIS LIFE
IN THE STORM
Wind Squall Upsets Boat
Of Manuel Olivari and
He Is Drowned.
Companion Clings to the Up
turied Craft and Is
Saved by Rover.

Manuel Olivari, an italian fisherman.
was drowned yesterday morning off Point
Richmond by the capsizing of his boat.
His companion, Phillip Charestrello,
climbed to the bottom of the upturned
craft and was taken off after drifting
about for an hour by the tug Sea Rover.
Olivari leaves a wife and three children.
The two men started out early yester-
day morning for the fishing grounds in
San Pablo Bay. They were off Point
Richmond about o'clock, when series
OF heavy squalls swept the bay. Twice
the stanch fishing boat was beaten down
on her beam ends and twice the skillful
seamanship of Oliyari enabled her TO
right herself. The third squal. however
came down with terrific force, upset the
boat and threw the two occupants into
the storm-ruffled water
Olivari was swept away by wind and
tide. and had disappeared when Chares-
trello, after hard struggle. climbed on
the upturned boat. In a thrashing rain
and with seas washing over him, the
survivor chung to the derelict and waited
for assistance. Help came in about
hour, when the tugboat Sea Rover, bound
for Port Costa. sighted the capsized boat
and took off CharestreIlo. He was numb
with cold and could not have maintained
his hold much longer
Kind hands on the Sea Rover did all
that could be done for the half-drowned
street about o'clock, when the tugboat
returned from Port Costa.
Olivari owned the boat, which was
taken charge of by some Chinese fisher
men. He was poor man and leaves his
family In destitute circumstances.

CHtiGUra Soap, Ointment and Pills

COMPLETE TREATMENT, SI.OO.

The agonizing itching and burning Of
the skin, as in eczema; the frightful
scaling, as in psoriasis; the loss of hair
and crusting of the scalp, as in SCALED
head; the facial Disagreement, as in
pimples and ringworm; the awful suf-
fering of infants and the anxiety of
worn-out parents, as in milk crust, tet-
ter and salt rheum, all demand a rem
edy of almost superhuman virtues to
successfully cope with them. That
Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills are
such stands proven beyond all doubt.
No statement is made regarding them
that is not justified by the strongest
evidence. The purity and sweetness,
the power to afford immediate relief,
the certainty of speedy and permanent
cure, the absolute safety and great
economy, have made them the standard
skin cures and humour remedies Of the
civilized world.
Battle the affected parts with hot
water and Cuticura Soap, to cleanse the
surface of crusts and scales and soften
the thickened cuticle. Dry, without
hard rubbing, and apply Cuticurs Oint-

MANIAC ATTACKS
YOUNG WOMAN
Miss Amy de Turbeville
Suffers Terrifying
Experience.
Is Held by a Madman While
Blows Are Rained Upon
Her Head.

To have been in the arms Of an un-
known maniac and beaten almost into
insenslbility on the public street in the
broad light Of DAY was the terrifying ex-
perienoe Of Miss Amy dc Turbeville at a
few minutes after s o'clock yesterday
morning. She is now at her home, ll06
Sacramento street. confined 10 her bed
- the result Of the nervous shock at
tending her fearsome adventure.

as mstron in the Episcopal Mission o.

morning 10 go 10 her place Of daily en-
ployment and was walking down the
steep hill on Mason street, between Sac
rsmento and California streets, when she
noticed a man standing in the angle of
the masonry Of the high wall running
along the adjacent property. He was
talking excitedly to himself and had such
az unusual appearance that Miss dc
Turbeville started 10 turn out TO avoid
him.
Seeing her movement, the maniac, for
such he proved 10 be, suddenly made
spring IN front Of the defenseless woman
snd without a word seized her in his
arms and began TO belabOr her on the
head and shoulders with closed UNI
brella. which he carried under his arm
Paralyzed with fright, Miss de Turbe-
vile could not call out and there hap
pened 10 be no one on the street at the
time TO come 10 her assistance.
Fear gave her superhuman strength,
however. and after a terrific struggle
with the madman she succeeded in
breaking from his grasp. She ran down
uho hill and. taking car, pursued her
way 10 the mission, but she was so un-
uerved that she was forced 10 give up
her work for the day and return TO her
home Her condition was such last night
that she could not be seen.
no clew 10 she identity of her insane
assailant can be obtained. Miss de Tur-
beville can give no very accurate descrip-
ton Of the man who gave her such a
nerve-racking experience. as she was so
frightened by his attack that she took
little note Of his appearance.

route to Washington. He is going
to the national capital to vigorously
protest against the recommended tions of the
Senate Committee on Hawaiian Affairs
on the question of establishing Federal
land laws in the Territory and the propo-
sition of making the leprosy settlement at
Molokai a general leper asylum for the
whole country. Regarding these questions
he said:
At the islands It is deemed that the Federal
land laws are not suited to the conditions
that exist there. There but very few
sections OF the islands where the law could
be made applicable at all and in those cases
there would be very little demand for land
under the Federal land laws excepting for
the purpose OF speculation.
There was well defined land system under
the Hawaiian monarchy for more than
hundred years and about 1SlS new and care
fully considered system adopted. This
known as the great mahele. Home
stead laws were adopted later and finally. in
1895. a general land act was enacted relating
to the remaining public lands.
This was largely based on the New Zealand
system. which system worked admirably in
New Zealand and under circumstances more
akin to these that exist in Hawaii than any
other system with which the Government Is
familiar.
Under the act OF 1895 the acquisition of
land for homestead purposes is made easy
and inexpensive and the opportunity for spec
uation is very small. The system is not

Business Men Will Fight
Bubonic Plague
Reports.
Health Committee Declares
for a Battle to the
Finish.

Alarmed and disgusted by the malicious
lies in reference to the alleged existence
OF bubonic plague in San Francisco and
determined, II possible, to demonstrate
to the satisfaction of every one that the
scourse is not and never was present in
California, the leading business men of
the city have taken steps to put a stop
to the acknowledged injury that is being
done to the industries and general pros
perity of the State through the machina-
tions of it's enemies. The directors of
the Chamber of Commerce, State Board
OF Trade, Merchants Exchange, San
Francisco Board of Trade. Manufacture
ers' and Producers Association and the
Merchants Association met at the rooms
OF the first named yesterday morning
and discussed the situation in all its
phases.
1t was shown that certain Eastern
publications are constantly printing ac-
counts of alleged cases of bubonic plague
In this city: that Australian ports and
the cities of Mama nita, Mexico, and
Guayaqun, Ecuador, have already estab-
llshed quarantines against this city; that

was being done to this best and cleanest
section of the country as a result and
1t was resolved to make a tremendous
effort to shake off this incubus. 1t was
asserted that the representatives of an
ambitious but SOmpwhat IlOSpr-iDulOl1S
city Of Washington State had endeavored
to wrest the transport business from this
port on the strength of the same falIa-

WILL ACT SPEEDILY.

1t was the unanimous opinion that i'm
mediate action of some sort be taken.
The best method of informing the people
abroad Of the harmless condition of San
FranciscO's health was the subject of
some debate. 1t was decided that the
Mayor be waited upon and asked to fur
nish advice. After learning what steps
may be necessary to be taken with the
State authorities the Governor will be
consulted. If 1t then be deemed wise TO
take further action the President will be
memorialiZed.
All were firm in the determination to
get at the root of the evil and eradicate
the harm which has been accomplished.
The members of the committee were will
ing to leave the administration Of their
private affairs to others and work with
might and main until the laudable object
of their appointment may be accomplish
ed. They will meet again in the near fu-
ture. probably to-day, at the rooms of the
Merchants Association and deliberate
