The Gasoline Schooner Crystal of. Seattle Wrecked at Yakutat. odd fellows return Chinese Cause Trouble Over the Burial of Their Dead at Sea.

The schooner Kodiak arrived from i Cooks Inlei. yesterday and reported the total loss of the Seattle gasolL.e schooner Crystal. The latter was on her way from Cooks Inlet for Sitka with a number of miners aboard. A heavy gale sprang up and the vessel headed for Yakutat. In attempting to make the harbor the Crystal lost headway on the bar and in a few moments was thrown higli and dry on the beach.

The passengers and crew managed to get ashore, but lost their effects and in a few hours the schooner was a total wreck. Captain Peterson of the Kodiak could not do anything for the shipwrecked men, so they waited for the steamer Dora, which will bring them to San Francisco. The steamer was not due at Sitka until the 7th and the miners and sailors had a lonp wait. They were made comfortable at Yakutat, however, and the Indians did everything in their power to help them. "Very few of the miners will remain at Cooks Inlet this winter," said W.

L. Washj burn, agent of the Alaska Commercial Company, yesterday. He was one of the on the Kodiak and know 3 just how matters are up there. ''Four or five miners were doins fairly well," continued he, "but the remainder did not make bread and butter. A couple of them were so nard-up that Captain Peterson brought them down out of charity.

It was all alluvial but the field was not nearly as extensive or rich as they protended. "There are, perhaps, five or six good mines out oi the lot. and those do not more than pay expenses. Alaskan fields are certainly not a poor man's As far as the two miners who came down on the Kodiak are concerned they have no words bad enough In which to paint their prospecting tour in Alaska. After their little ready money went they were at the mercy of the storekeeper, and their daily earnings barely sufficed to keep body and soul together.

According to them the held at Cooks Inlet will never pay for the working.

Seiners. The Ranger came here direct from Acapulco, and brings no late news of the disaster at La Paz. A telegram to the Merchants' Exchange stales that the British bark Rathdown, THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1895. Johnson, one'of the prettiest models, who posed for the New York artists, has disappeared, and her disappearance has recalled the dinner famous in the luxurious Bohemia of men of fame and fortune. The girl is 17 years old, the daughter of a wellto-do mechanic.

She accompanied a friend, who was posing in one of the big studios, and presently became a model first for the face and neck only, but at last for the altogether. She was made much of by the artists, was wined and dined and was dazzled by the glitter of the new life. She concealed the questionable part of her life from her parents. Last May Henry Poor, the Wall-street bunker, gave a dinner at the famous studio of James L. Breese to his friend, John Elliott Cowdin.

The guests were all men of note. Thirty-three men and two women sat down to the banquet. The party drank 144 bottles of champagne, an average of nearly four and a half bottles for every guest. The dinner cost $3500, $110 dollars per plate. When the coffee and cigars wore placed on the table six waiters came in.

bearing an enormous pie. This was placed in the center of the table, the head waiter cut the crust, the pie fell apart and showed Susie Johnson, dressed in filmy black lace. A great bevy of canaries that had been in prisoned in the pie with her flew about the room. The little Eighth-avenue girl was the queen of that night. Now her mother is searching the studios for her, for she has abandoned her home, and her father threatens to murder tho man who enticed her away.

from Astoria for Queenstown with a I of wheat, has put into Auckland for repairs. The carpo shifted and the vessel will have to he surveyed. She sailed from Astoria for Cork on July 8 last with a cargo shinned hv Balfour, (Jmhrie Co. and valued at $54,000. About this time she shoukt be somewhere near her destination, but instead Bhe turns up at the other end of the world.

With some the opinion is advanced that the telegram is wrong, and that Falkland (Island) should be the word instead of Auckland. Others contend that when the cargo shifted all the captain could do was t'j put his ship before the wind and run until the storm was scent. One thing is certain, the Rathdown is now 102 days on her journey and no nearer home than when she started. Tales of disaster keep piling up, and the underwriters are afraid to open a telegram for fear it contains the news of another loss. Ihe news arrived yesterday that the British bark Glenclune, before reported ashore, had become a total wreck.

She was on her way from Hamburg to Port I Los Angeles with a cargo of cement for i the Southern Pacific Railroad Company. The bark Merom arrived from Karluk yesterday afternoon with 195 Chinese and ninety-seven white fishermen. During the run down the coast the skipper had almost a riot on his hands. The Chinese got up i the disturbance over two of their com- panions who died at sea, and had it not been for their "boss" there would have been trouble. A few days after leaving Karluk one of the Mongolians died.

His body was placed in pickle and the coolies were satisfied. On September 30 a heavy gale came up, however, and everything on deck was i awash. The foresail was carried away, the forecastle door stove in and the sailor's quarters flooded. The cask in which the dead Chinese was pickled broke adrift, and when the head came off the dead fisher- man was washed into the scuppers. The sailors did not know what to do, but finally one of them fastened a weight to the remains and overboard it went.

The gale continued, and the Merom was constantly swept by heavy seas. Another Chinese died, and when it was proposed to throw him overboard a howl went Up. The ''boss' 1 explained matters, however, and the Mongolian was given a "white man's burial," as the chief officer of the Merom put it. That is, he was sewed un in a piece of canvas, with a lump of lead i at his feet. The caotain read the prayers, and as the words "Till the sea gives up its i dead" were uttered the plank was tilted, 1 and the remains of the Chinese shot into the depths.

In order to prevent the seas from breaking aboard while the ceremony was going on, oil was poured over the bows of the bark, and it proved very effective. All the fishermen did well this season, and in consequ-nce all were in good humor when the Merom got into port Satur- day. The fteamer Cleone left yesterday after repairing her foremasthead. While lying i at Westport on her last trip she got under the mooring wire, and a sudden swell did the damage. The repairs were made at Main-street wharf in this City.

Millions for California. The editorial on the Stanford case in the i News Letter to-day will strike a chord of patriotism. It discusses the de- cision of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals, sustaining the demurrer of the defendant in the case of the Government vs. Leland Stanford estate. The attitude taken is surrounded with originality and common-sense.

The downfall of the Populist party is another briiliant "leader, and their new light on the millions, in the "Looker-on," with a lot of gossip concerning Colonel J. A. Fillmore and Page Brown's accidents, and Joaquin Miller's "Lost Beverage," and unwritten history of General all these are bits of gossip which will remind society to seek a further pace, where some recent weddings are discussed. The New York gossip is tilled with bits of Californians' adventures in Gotham, and the San Francisco millionaire's purchase of a New York paper is among the exciting topics. Regarding fashions, theaters, arts and music, nothing has been forgotten.

The News Letter maintains the traditions of the best Eastern and European society journals. The chronicles of the Four Hundred are never lacking, and are always delightfully accurate. GOOD-BY NORMAL SCHOOL The Board of Education Preparing to Close Its Doors. surprised the teachers No One Will Be Selected to Fill the Vacant Princi- PALSHIP. The Normal School is gome to be abolished.

That point was practically decided at the special meeting of the Board of Education yesterday afternoon. The teachers in charge will be gradually transferred to other schools. This is a surprise that the half-dozen candidates battling for the principalship never calculated on. Ever since the death of Principal Kennedy there has been tireless wirepulling to get the place, with its $250 a month salary. Among the candidates were W.

W. Stone, principal of the South San Francisco Richard D. Faulkner of the FranKlin Grammar, Principal Kellogg of the Boys' High School, Teacher Milton E. Blanchard of the same school. Miss Jennie Smith of the Longfellow Primary, Principal Mrs.

Cclina R. Pechin of the Cooper Primary, Principal Miss Emma Stinson of the Whittier Primary, William S. Monroe of Pasadena and Kincaid, formerly principal of the school, principal Joseph O'Connor of the Horace Mann School was urged by his friends to enter the contest, but he gave as an excuse that his present position was perfectly satisfactory. Several of the aspirants gathered in the anteroom of the Board of Supervisors' chambers yesterday afternoon, expecting to be called inside to give their views on i how the Normal School should be conducted and a fair estimate of their own abilities to fill the office of principal. They laughed and chatted with one another and the first intimation they received of the big change in contemplation was when the members of the board tiled out of executive session and made the announcement.

There were nine members of the board present and the sentiment wa3 almost unanimous that it was better to close the school under present circumstances. The few members who had candidates to pro- pose were so hopelessly in the minority! and the chances of their candidates ap- peared so poor that nearly all of them fell in line with the majority. President Dodge announced that the chief reason for closing the school was i economy. The City treasury is very low at present, and the School Department is sadly in need of funds to improve the schools condemned by the Board of I Health. Two schools, the Richmond and I the Sutro, have been closed within a month on account of their very bad sanitary conj dition.

A score more of them are black- I listed, and the chances are that they will be ordered closed unless steps are taken in the very near future to remedy them. By: closing the Normal School the department saves about $12,000 a year. Another reason for closing the Normal School at the end of the present term is the fact that there are three other Normal schools in the State, and this one is not an urgent necessity. There are about 100 pupils there, and two-thirds of ihem come from other parts of the State. They can very easily oe accommodated at the other institutions.

Accordingly the programme at present is to begin shaving the expenses of the Normal School. At the very first opportunities offered the teachers will be transferred to other schools. Miss Laura Fow leu the vice-principal, will remain in charge, as at present, till the doors are locked. Later on there may be some plan of opening the building as a school of another class. Nothing like this, however, will be discussed till the fuifds at the disposal of From the New York World.

the School Department are materially increased. Thus ends the institution which Professor Voder camp out from the East to whip into shape. Originally it was started as a preparatory class for graduates of the Girl's High School who intended to become teftcheri. The original idea was greatly expanded, and under Professor Voder and Principal Kennedy the institution a new life. Now it seems it is not exactly what is demanded and the order has gone forth to close its doors.

DIXEY AT THE TIVOLI. The Gifted Comedian Will Appear Xo- Morrow Afternoon. Henry E. Dixey, whose afternoon monologue created a sensation at the Columbia Theater a few weeks ago, will repeat the performance at the Tivoli Opera-house on Sunday afternoon. Mr.

Dixey will not call this a monologue performance, as he will be assisted by nine of his own people Mr. Cixey. and the Tivoli company. The performance, which -arill be given at 2 o'clock, will contain Mr. Dixey's scene from the barbershop, of "Adonis," his imitation of Hermann, Paderewski, Sir Henry Irving and other notables.

He will sing "lis English You Know," and a new song written for this occasion. Mr. Dixey makes up his impersonation of Sir Henry Irving on the stage so that every one in the audience can see him. He also gives a number of clever slight-of-hand performances. MRS.

BOOTH'S LECTURE. The Progress Prospects of the Salvation Army in America. Mrs. Ballington Booth of the Salvation Army lectured before a large and appreciative audience at Golden Gate Hall last I evening, the subject being "The progress and prospects of the Salvation Army in America." Mrs. Booth's address touched upon the rescue work of the army in the slums of New York, saying "that there was fully as much abject poverty, crime and sin to be met with in the metropolis of America as there whs in the lowest, parts of 'Darkest i England' and in 'Infidel In conclusion Mrs.

Booth remarked that i she was now ready to enlist all frienas of the army into the Auxiliary League. The league mentioned is composed of persons who, without necessarily indorsing or apj proving of all the methods used by the Salvation Army, are sufficiently in syrai pathy with its work of reclaiming drunkj ards and rescuing fallen women as to give i it their prayers, influence and money. Mrs. Booth will lecture at Metropolitan Temple this evening, the subject being: i Women Warriors." "The Wave." Decidedly The Wave is worth reading this week. In one place it upholds the supremacy of man over woman, and pleads eloquently the cause of capital against labor.

It suggests the abolishment of the local Normal School, criticiE2S the Board of Education and is instructive on Madagascar. It has stories of Wilton Lackaye, the Bohemian Club and William Alvonl, and an interview with Barnabee of the Bostonians. Another writer discourses on '-Ideal Wives." There are three s-onnets by L. R. Robertson and witty storiettes under the head of "Ripples." Society is treated at length, and there is a quantity of entertaining gossip.
