PIRATES MAKE A
 RICH HAUL
(From Saturdays Daily.)

Far more exciting and to a more in the Balkans, was the organization of the Pirate Club and the accomplish ing last night of the first official act of the Skull and Crossbones members, who in the dead of night stole a march on their rivals, the Radiators, footing their treasury of all the drink checks gathered by contribution from the diff ferent members for a Christmas cele- bration.
 In a stout box with a massive lock and a small slit, have been deposited for the past two or three weeks checks for drinks the relief for which the Radiators constantly pray. A red label proclaims it to be "The Radiator Re- lief fund"
 The act of The Pirates was perfectly legitimate according to their bylaws and rules the meaning of which is 'get everything possible in any possible  way" The booty is now in the pos session of a trusted member of the Pirates and will be held to celebrate later the event of the first official act of the new club.
 Detectives Find Treasure.
 Detectives Harry Hill and Gus Mil
 
 early this morning, traced the relief fund box and recovered the treasure taken by the Pirates. Suspicion had been directed toward the two men by other members of the Radiator Club, and their recovery of the booty has again placed them in good standing.

(From Saturdays Daily)
 Harry Barnett, one of the. owners of the steamer Kotzebue, which was sunk in Grantley Harbor last week, returned from Teller this morning on the Teddy Bear after raising the vessel and. tow ing it into shallow water near Bay Creeks
 Barnett left for Teller upon hearing of the sinking of the vessel and with five men, horse team and two barges raised the boat in just twenty hours and placed 1t in good winter quarters. A barge was placed at the nose of the vessel and a lead taken over blocking on the barge. Triple blocks on shore with the team of horses lifted the bow of the vessel from the water.
 The bow of the other barge was placed under the stern of the Kotze- bue by ballasting the end of the scow, and the vessel raised by shifting the ballast to the stern, In that way the steamer was hauled ashore and made fast. Barnett found that no damage had been done to the steamer with the exception of the loss of three or four hatches and two doors. The vessel will be ready for use again next spring.

60 MILES AN HOUR!'

 NEW YORK, Sept. 24.-Ricochet, 1e, new-styled racing craft, built to make speed by skimming along the surface of the water instead of driving through it, promises to eclipse every thing in the motorboat speed class. Chevalier Jos. de Korwin, the in ventor and owner, has demonstrated his boat Is capable of. speed of 30 miles an hour with a 12 horse power gasoline engine. He is now having 100 horse power engine and boat constructed and declares it Twill be tapable of speed of 60 miles an
 De Korwm calls his boat a hydro plane. It is but F feet in length, and the propeller instead of being parallel with the body of the boat, makes an angle of 20 degrees, thus Keeping the bladessin the water at all times no matter how rough the sea is.
 The width is uniform throughout and the bottom slants from the bow to the middle. When the engine is started the angle of the propeller has the effect of pushing the boat upward as well as onward, and when travel ing at the high speed, it skins along the top of the water, only two points one of the middle and the other at the rear-coming in contact with the water,
 By thus almost wholly eliminating rthe resistance of the water. the craft is ahle to travel about ten times as an engine of the same horse power

 The instant the power is shut off, the boat settles in the water and comes to d standsdll. The chavalier claims that when travelling at a speed of 30 miles an hour, he can come to a dead stop within a distance of five yards
 Cnevalier de Korwin is a sportsman of wide reputation throughout Europe. He is chief of aeronautics of the Aus trian army, and has made a number of perilous ascensions. In one of these he attempted to fly from England to Austria and narrowly escaped being swept out over the Atlantic. After giving himself up for lost he made a landing near Dieppe. more dead than alive

 And the men, sober heads of fam lilies, staid brokers and sedate mer- chants, they look at the radiant groom, and they, too, remember.
 The women, who make their own bread and butter and occasional jelly cake down town, smile hickery little smiles and look extremely bored when the brides name is mentioned.

ARKELL BORE ASSUMED
NAME IN SAN FRANCISCO
Former Employer Says Prisoner
Was Fond of Money, but
Doubts His Guilt

Gustav Arkell, who was arrested in
Emeryville for the murder of Mrs. Dom
ohue, was known in San Francisco by
the alias of Alsted He did carpenter
work for a number of persons in the
Mission district. His work consisted
principally of odd jobs. Within the
last few days he had done some work
for Prof. Arthur d. Gatchell, an herb
doctor, with Offices at 1859 Market
street.
'I have known Alsted probably for
three years. said Professor Gatchell
last night. "He was an understood
man, Swedish. with yellow hair, and
was about so years of age 1 knew
he lived in Emeryville, but / did not
know he went under the name Of
Arkell there.
Il have counted myself as Alsteds
friend, and I do not think he has COM
mitted a murder. He did mot strike me
as a man who would have the courage
to commit such a crime. He was close,
to the point of stinginess, and loved
money more than anything else on
earth. ] have known him to walk from
my store, nearly 25 blocks from the
ferry, in order to save cents car fare.
IF the woman was strangled 1 do
not think Alsted would have had the
strength to do it,"
