FLYING FISH BOARD
SIERRA IN M|DOcEAN
Lured by Mackenzie Cor
don's Voice Finny Covey
Come on Deck

There are fish stories and fish sto-
ries at this season of the year. but the
story told by the passengers Of the
steamship Sierra is one that Is backed
by facts.
AS the steamship was sailing along
from Honolulu on her way to this port
school of flying fish suddenly Invaded
her upper deck 1t was early in the
evening and as the weather was warm
all the passengers had gathered on the
deck to listen. to an impromptu con-
cert. 1t was bright starlight even
ing and the passengers could distinctly
note the glittering wings Of fish as
they sped along over the CLASSY sea.
Just at this juncture all the electric
lights in the ship were turned on.
Mackenzie Gordon and w. II. Hopkins
We're singing the 'Larboard Watch"
when the fish made sudden dart and
dropped on the decks TO the great
amazement of the passengers. Many
of the fish were caught and placed on
ice to be brought to port to show to
those who doubted the story.

MURDER YOUNG MEXICAN
Messboy of Steamer Sierra
Killed by Blow From

Mexican named Enrique. messboy

night by thugs, who struck him on the
head with some blunt instrument En-
rique and Antonio Torrslli, a fireman
on the Sierra. started out for a cruise
along the Barbary coast and when in
Jackson street between Montgomery
and Sansome two men jumped out from
the shelter Of a building and felled
them to the ground Torreli was cut
on the head and face and when he re-
covered consciousness found his com

stranger John Frazier, who was a
passenger on the Sierra. notified the
police and the victims OF the thugs
were removed to the harbor emergency
hospital. DR.. Hill examined Enrique
and pronounced him dead. He had
been struck but one blow, which had
left not even bruise. DR.. Hill thinks
Enrique was struck at the base of the
brain and that the concussion produced

ALL PACKAGES INSPECTED
The mystery of the package ad-
dressed to one of the jurymen. which
disappeared from the hotel Office Satur
day night, was partially cleared yes
terday, when 1t was found in the jury's
rooms. Elisor Biggy, who has been in
specting all packages and mail, could
not account for its presence In the room
without his knowledge, but ascertained
that it had contained nothing of a sus-
picious nature when found in the room
by its owner. AS a result of this Incl
dent q new method of examining pack
ages addressed to the jurors was put
into vogue yesterday, one of the guards
being appointed to inspect them during
the absence of the jury and have them
in readiness to be delivered to the own
ers on their return
The jury passed a quiet day yester-
day, owing to the illness of one of the
members, which made il necessary to
defer the trip down the bay by steamer,
which had been planned for the day.
The Juryman became sick during the
night, and was not well enough yester-
day to go on the excursion which had
been planned. although he felt much
better last night and will be able to
attend to his duties in the morning.

conditions and the educational institu-
tons OF the new world. He is strongly
impressed with the educational systems
Of California and speaks In high praise

In an interview Professor Leotsakos

some years ago by President Benjamin

Professor Putzker, Leotsakos sees an

|O0N'T MENTION CRAFT
IN THE NORTH CORRIDOR
OF ST. FRANCIS HOTEL
If You Do, Biggy Will Get
You for Talking in Pro-
pinquity to Jury
GUARD AND CENSOR
Elisor Passes Upon Conver-
sation and Edits Press
With Shears
"sh-h-h-hr

Sh-h-h-hr'
Don't try to walk down the north
corridor of the ST. Francis hotel and
talk about the graft situation or the
schmitz, trial. Elisor Biggy and a half
dozen guards are lounging around in
unsuspected corners, and they'll get
you, sure.
There's military organization and a
censorship in that north corridor that
has been reduced to science, and it's a
dangerous place to let expressions of
civic pride or anything else pertaining
to municipal government find utterance,
for in that corridor are lodged the
twelve members OF the Schmitz teial
Jury and no whisper of anything con-
nected with the trial or the local graft
situation must reach their ears.
Biggy doesn't do things by halves.
When the morning papers put in an ap~
pearance they are subjected to a merci-
less mutilation with a pair of sharp
shears in the hands of the elisor and
every word pertaining to the trial. graft
developments or even municipal poll
tics is carefully eliminated. OF course,
the news on the back OF the page con-
tanning this sort of matter goes also,
and the result is that when the papers
reach the hands of the jurors they
consist principally of want ads, with
here and there the continued end of
some item of which the most interest
ing feature has gone into the waste
basket.
Yesterday even the Sunday supple
mert of The Call suffered, for on one
page was o. Henry's story of The
Gentle CRATER" and this excited
Biggy's suspicion and led to It's con-
demnation. So, also. went some articles
in the monthly magazines because their
titles were suggestive of municipal rot
tenness. -
But this isn't all. Biggy reads every
letter addressed to a Juror and opens
every bundle. Sometimes it's slightly
embarrassing, for package delivered
by young wife or sister is likely to
disgorge nothing more than roll of
clean underclothing, and a missive may
contain more or less tender sentiments,
but BiEgy is something of hero in
meeting the unexpected and has so far
survived.
Just before meal time Biggy lines up
the jurors and calls the roll in true
military fashion. Then there is flank
attack on the washroom, splattering
of water and rubbing OF faces and
silent march to the grfllroom across
the street.
But they all seem to thrive in spite
of being incommunicado, and IL there
have been any kicks on treatment,
Biggy has censored them as we'll as he
has the newspapers and periodicals.

solvency. They then went out of busi-
ness. That was four weeks ago.
Saturday night the resort was
ablaze again. Women were there In
number and the old time life was re-
sumed with Sam Bloom as the man
.ager. The place was not molested.
Bloom admits he Is no longer the
owner Of the resort. Like Mulvaney, he
has been reduced. He Is only the man
ager. Who owns the resort? why,
Kid Sullivan, of course" he answers
The answer to the question is the
beginning of the riddle, for the night
owls ask: How could Kid Sullivan
own a saloon, and why would he buy
one. II he could, that had been raided
and raided and closed7'
To all of which interrogations the
wise" ones of the unsavory district
reply: That's easy The 'Kid' and
the chief are good friends. There will
be no more raids. Sullivan has no
money. but Dinan can raise enough to
buy two saloons"
They do not express surprise at the
supreme audacity of Chief Dinan who,
while resting under indictment for
perjury and an accusation of tamper-
ing with the Echmitz jury, still finds
time and nerve. they say, to go into
the tenderloin saloon business by
proxy.
