SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 19..The
local papers, a few days ago. con-
tanned a brief announcement Of
the passing of John Warner. ma
tive of London, England, i'm the
oath year of his age.
To the men of today this an
nouncement meant little, but to
those who helped mould history on
the Pacific slope during the late
'40s and the early Sos 1t brought
back memories of man whose es-
tablishment, THE Cobweb" saloon.
on the North Beach, was a famous
show place in the old days; mem
cries of a man versed in art and
literature; memories of man
whose cafe, known from the At
lantic, yes, even from foreign
shores to the Pacific, was the
haunt of Bohemians, of soldiers of
fortune, of sea captains, of Bonan-
"a kings-in fact, of all men who
enjoyed the good things of life in
unique surroundings and served

new and entertaining yarn to tell
The "Cobweb" saloon was Just
what the name implies. From it's
opening day to the hour of it's de-
struction in the great earthquake
and fire of 1906, John Warner
never molested a spider that came
to spin a dwelling place on its
walls.
The top of the bar, the bottles
containing the rich and rare
viands that stood upon the back
bar, the glasses In which the
sparkling liquor was served were
kept polished. There was a clean
swept pathway leading to the bar
from the front door, and there
was a clean swept space of about
three feet in front of the bar. All
other sections were sacred. No
broom o rduster, no polishing
cloth, no water, ever went beyond
the deadline. Rare paintings GOV.

had spun webs about them to the
depth of nearly foot, and heyHf

From the ceilings, drapeG fes,

PORTLAND. Ore, Nov. 49,
Joseph Way, Swiss laborer liv-
ing at Rose Park, visited police
headquarters and asked Captain
Bailey il that official would direct
him to some institution where ba-
bies could be checked at so much
day. The man stated that he
was unable to properly support his
wife and six months old girl upon
the salary earned by him, and his
spouse is DESTROYS of assisting in
the bread winning.
Owing to the tender age of the
child the mother cannot leave ii
alone, and therefore wants to place
the infant in some home during the
day. According to Way, he is pay
ing SIS month for three rooms,
and not having employment stead
lily, cannot afford such high
rental.

NEW YORK CITY, Nov. 49,
Eighteen months old John Eodice
was almost torn to pieces by a
savage bulldog while visiting his
godfather, Pasquale Picarilli, at 23S
West Thirtieth street yesterday
afternoon. He is now dying at the
New York hospital.
The little boy was in charge of
Antoinette Picarilli, the IA year old
daughter of the house, at the time.
The father was attending to his ex-
press business and Mrs. Picarilli
was on shopping expedition. The
child had been left with them ow-
ing to the serious illness of his
mother, who resides at 800 East
One Hundred and Sixth street.
The two children were in the
kitchen playing with blocks, while
the dog was lying quietly behind
the stove,
The baby suddenly jumped up
and playfully pulled the animals
tail. With a snarl the brute seized
the child's arm, hurled him from
side to side, at times dashing his
body against the walls. Antoinette
ran downstairs and shrieked for
help.
Neighbors to the Rescue.
Neighbors ran to the rescue. A
man rushed into the room with a
NAL a crashing blow across the
head. Then a woman appeared
with red hot iron and laid it
heavily across the dogs nose. With
howl he loosened his jaws. The
man caught the child, and all
within the apartment succeeded in

without effect and the dog landed
on the chair held In Creevy's
hands, splintering 1t.
Finally the animal ran into a
bedroom and crawled under the
bed. The men fired two more shots
and he rolled over as though dead.
Without warning the animal re-
vived, grabbing Creevy in the right
thigh, tearing cash Of several
inches and cutting the leg of his
trousers entirely off.
Then he sprang for the last time,
and his jowls were within foot Of
Wedder's throat when the last shot
struck him squarely under the eye,
killing him. The time of the fight
was 20 minutes.
Every one of the II bullets fired
had passed through his body. The
dog was a pure white English thor
oughbred of the fighting stock and
had been regarded as dangerous
for some time.
