WEATHERHLS DROWNING
UNDER INVESTIGATION
Collision Between San Pablo and One
OF CroWley's Gasoline Launches
Before Local Inspectors.

United States Local Inspectors
Bolles and Bulger held an investiga-
tion yesterday into the facts of a col
lsion on the bay on November % be-
tween the ferry steamer San Pablo and
a gasoline launch owned by Thomas
Crowley. The launch was navigated
by 17-year-old boy named Leonard
Madden, who had with him Ernest
Weatherill, a plumbers apprentice, 19
years old. Weatherill was drowned
and Madden was rescued by the crew
Of the steamer.
After Madden had been taken on
board he was asked by Captain A
Dunnigan of the San Pablo whether
he had attempted suicide by running
the launch into the steamer. He re-
piled that when Weatherill warned
him Of the steamers approach he
added that he thought they could cross
the San Pablo's bows.
The inspectors drew out the fact
that the launch was not provided with
side lights. The case was taken under
Amusement.

CHILD SUFFERS
FROM NEGLECT

Starving to death, her little body torn
and bruised from continual beating,
four -year-old Margaret Connors was
taken to the Central Emergency Hos
pital last night in a precarious condi-
tion. To DR.. Glover, the wan little
child told a pitiful tale of abuse and
mistreatment.
The child's mother died a year and a
half ago.
The baby, up to few days ago, was
in charge of her aunt, Mrs Emma Con-
nors of Vallejo. Her father, Henry
Connors, a teamster in this city. took
her from his sister last week.
Connors placed his little girl in the
care Of Mrs. Mamie Clark of 314 Third
street. Last night Mrs. Clark became
alarmed at the child's emaciated ap-
pearance and weakened condition and
sent for the ambulance.
When the pale little waif was exam

cred that Margaret was suffering from
tuberculosis and a debilitated condition

up was denuded Of large spots Of skin
On quizzing the patient the surgeon

who attended the recital by Alfred A.
Farland heartily indorsed the senti-
ment His was not the banjo of the
plantation, coupled with black-face
minstrelsy, rag-time and knock about
turns, but from the once-despised in
strument he drew forth genuine
music delicate tones which held the
audience breathless, and louder vibra-
tons which made one almost wonder
il an orchestra were not concealed
behind the curtain.
Mr.. Farland's repertoire included
classical selections. popular melodies
and some lively airs. Farland holds
the title of the worlds greatest banjo
list. He is certainly a wizard with his
favorite instrument. Many of the
numbers rendered by Farland last
night were especially arranged by him
self and in them he showed the hand
of a master.
Mr.. Farland was ably assisted by
Alice Kellar-Fox. who not only accom-
panied him with the banjo in instru-
mental selections, but also rendered
scme choice vocal numbers
Mr.. Farland is billed to appear at
the Orpheum next week and it is pre-
dicted that he will make great hit
there.
