SAVES TWENTY
FROM DEATH
Captain Paulsen of Curacao
Rescues Passengers of a
Wind-FOrsaken Schooner
SIX CHILDREN ON BOARD
People on Kitty of San Diego
Found Dying of Thirst
and Picked Up by Steamer
SIX CHILDREN ON BOARD

Captain Paulsen of the steamship
Curacao, which arrived yesterday from
Guaymas, on the outward voyage saved
a score of people, six of them chill
DIRE, from a lingering death in a wind
abandoned schooner off the coast of
Lower California.
Two days before the Curacao reach
ed Ensenada the schooner Kitty was
sighted near Geronimo Island, be-
Gained and flying signals of distress.
One of the CuracaO's officers boarded
the sailing vessel and found there a
distressing state Of affairs.
On board the Kitty, in addition to
the crew. were fifteen passengers, in
GLIDING j. Smith, wife and six chill
dren and several Mexican men and wo-
men. The Kitty was from San Diego
and bound for Lower California.
She had been becalmed for eighteen
days where the Curacao found her.
The food supply was exhausted, the
last drop of water had been consumed
and death in one of its most dreadful
forms seemed inevitable when the
white hull of the Curacao doomed up
over the horizon.
The children had been the greatest
sufferers and their pleading for "a
drink of water had added many fold
to the pangs of their grown-up ship
mates.
The fifteen passengers were trans
ferred to the Curacao and tenderly
cared for. Two days later, when the
steamship reached Ensenada, where
the fifteen were landed, most of them
had recovered from the effects of their
experience on the Kitty.
From the steamships stores Captain
Paulsen replenished the larder and
water tanks of the Kitty, which was
left in charge of the crew to await the
belated breeze.

BUSINESS FIRST is
THE MOTTO OF KUBLI
Finds Room Full of Gas, but Does
Not Turn 1t OF, Because
Customer Waits.

Casper Kubli, proprietor of the gro
Gerry at 1896 Sacramento street, is a
man of business and his testi-
mony yesterday before the Coroner's
jury showed that death has no ter
rors for him when somebody wants to
buy a loaf of bread. 1t was he who
found the dead body of Ernest r.
Williams, his clerk, with the gas
turned on last Friday morning. His
testimony was that he did not turn off
the gas because a customer came to
the store to buy loaf of bread and
Kubli went out to wait upon him.
He admitted that he did not know
whether or not Williams was dead or
only unconscious, and on being asked
by the Coroner why he had not shut
off the flow of gas replied that he
would have done so had he not been
obliged to return to the store to sell
the customer a loaf of bread.
A verdict of suicide was rendered.

GROWS TESTY
Expresses Himself FOrtibly
on Proceedings Regarding
the Ballinger Controversy

Judge Dunno has taken another week
to reach a conclusion in regard to the
case of George 7. Ballinger, charged
with felony ENLIGHTENMENT on complaint
of William Schroeder. president of the
California Art Glass Works. The case
is on the Judges calendar for trial, but
Ballinger has been discharged by Judge
Graham on a writ of habeas corpus.
Attorneys Barry and Barrett for the
defendant submitted a motion two
weeks ago for the dismissal of the in
formation toto Judge Dunno, but he
seems determined not to grant it if pos
sible.
The point at issue is whether or not
the writ of habeas corpus was applied
for prior to the fling Of the informa-
ton, both having been done on the same
day. At the previous calling of the case
Deputy County Clerks Doran and Wells
testified that the application for the
writ was made in the morning and the
information was filed in the afternoon.
Yesterday Louis Ferrari, assistant in
the District Attorneys Office, testified
that he was in the habit of filing infor
nations in the morning, but sometimes
he did it in the afternoon. He had no
independent recollection of the Bal
linger information.
The defendants attorneys objected
to Ferraris testimony. and the Judge
testify said that he desired to find out
the whole course of the proceeding.
Il have carefully gone through the
records" said the Judge, and l am
satisfied that public .offense has been
committed. You can object to the
whole proceedings if you like, but am
going to instruct the District Attorney
to proceed and do his duty
There was no further evidence to Of
fer and the Judge continued the matter
for a week.

CATS HUNTED

Hayes Valley Lads Raid the

Cats are shy in Hayes Valley-shy
in numbers, shy in disposition. Only
an occasional kitty, hurried and fear
some, prowls through the sunlit alley
ways. The midnight meow and cater
waul sound pianissimo from the back
fences of Western Suffer street. The
golden canary can hop from his cage
with neither Tom nor Tabby there to
stalk him along the soft carpet, and
the mouse, grown overbold, plays to a
circuit of catless houses.

ing to the Hayes Valley ladies who

blue-blooded Angoras, is because DR..

ROUND UP CHILDREN
WORKING IN CANNERIES
ence in Enforcing the CompuI-
sorry Education Law.

Ne
Truant Officers Floyd and Campion
made a descent yesterday on the
Code ortwood cannery. located on
Bryant street, between Ninth and
Tenth. having been informed that
a number of children under the
age Of IA years were working in the
place in violation of the compulsory
education law.
The alarm was evidently given, for
at the appearance of the officers some
forty girls disappeared as If by magic
and for a time the officers were unable
to find them. The girls were finally
located behind a heap of boxes, where
they were huddled together and trem-
bling from fright. They were all un-
der IA years OF age and were served
with notices that they must attend
school or else be hailed into the Ju-
venile Court.
The gatekeeper of the cannery was
also notified that he must not admit
the children, under penalty of the
law. The officers are visiting all the
canneries in their efforts to enforce
the compulsory education law.

States Consul General I'm Paris
Wants His Fees.
The case of Alexander B. Garrett,
charged with the murder Of Major j.
w. McClung on November % in the
rooms of Mrs. Elizabeth Hitchcock
Colt in the Palace Hotel, was set for
trial yesterday in Judge Lawlor's
court, but has again been continued
till August 8.
Attorney Grady said he had received
letter from the United States Consul
General in Paris, France, asking for
the fees for taking the testimony of
Mrs. Colt. He requested the Judge to
make an order on the City Treasurer
for the Consul's fees, but the Judge de-
clined, as it was outside Of his juris-
diction. Grady demurred, saying it was
hard that a man charged with murder
and penniIess should be compelled to
pay $50 for procuring testimony but he
promised to send the money and asked
for a continuance till September 1.
Assistant District Attorney FerraI
protested against any further delay.
The Judge continued the case for trial
till August 8, agreeing to continue it if
a proper showing were made at that
time.
