Probably the most interested spectators of the racing yesterday at San andro, as well as the ‘most observed of all, were the Eastern riders, who arrived Saturday— E. C.

ATHLETES COMING FROM Oak- LAND, ALAMEDA AND PORT CosTa. A grand tournament of all the Gaelic games popular in Ireland for centuries will be held under the auspices of the Gaelic Athletic Association at Central Park on Sunday, March 17, St, Patrick’s Day. Ex- tensive preparations have been made for the occasion and additional attractions will be included in the programme of events, such as a tug-of-war between the team of the Knights of the Red Branch and a team selected from the “Sandows” The knights are well posted on the game, and under the able leadership of M. Casey, who has had a large experience in thisline, will, no doubt, give the Sandows a hard rub. The latter may be seen every evening at Central Park, training hard and getting into shape for the event. J. 0'Dowd of the Emmets has taken charge of the team and puts his men through the paces every evening with an ability that augurs ill for the redoubtable *knights.”” he prize for the winning that it was time to play it was discovered that neither team was %nll—tliat is, neither had a sufficient number of men to fill the several positions. So Captain Riley repre- senting one team and Captain Powers the other made a lively skirmish in the aundi- ence and by main force dragged outanum- ber of balltossers and pressed them into service. Fach team, instead of being a picked nine, was a picked-up one. The men of each team went to work with as much energy as if they were doing battle with the champions of the East. Some very pretty plays were made, which awakened the latent interest in the cranks, who yelled until they were hoarse, just as they used to do in the days when 20,000 people sat and watched the games. The game terminated at 4 o'clock, and a vouthful crank who had kept track of the game on the back of an envelope an- nounced with all the gravity ofa $5a day scorer the “de game stands 17 for Riley’s team to 8 for Powers’.”” The players picked up their traps and moved to the dressing-room and that was the end of the glory gt the Haight-street ball grounds. These grounds were opened in the latter part of March, 1887, the initial game being {n[uved between the Haverleys and the ’ioneers; that game resulted in a victory for the Haverleys, by a score of 6 to 5, and it was hotly contestéd, being witnessed by the largest crowd that ever watched a bail game in this city. The batteries on that occasion were McMullen and Carroll for the Pioneers and Incell and Stein for the Haverleys. On these grounds some of the best ball-players in the United States made their first appearance and it was on this diamond that Colonel T. Peculiar Rob- inson won honors.

He has secured com- modious quarters in a roomy house at Eighth and Wood streets, and calls his place the Manse. It combines all the fea- tures of a school and home for entertain- ment and education. Thereis a polyclinic school auxiliary to the Manse for those who seek improvement. The young minister who presides over the destinies of the Second Congregational Church, near the Manse, is %ery enthusi- astic in his work. He said on the subject: “We have been some time and to great expense in getting our Manse to its pres- ent footing.

He spoke against the Populists in general and John L. Davie, their candidafe for Mayor, in par- | ticular, and wound up by saying that he was then making his last speech in Oak- land. He said he would in the future be found in San Francisco, from which point he intended carrying on the work he had undertaken in connection with the indus- trial army. Died on the Street.

It was 9:43 a. ». when the first race of the day was started, the ten-mlle sealed handi- D event of the California Cycling Club.

The referee for the day and necessary umpires, timers, starters, etc., have not been selected, but will be announced at next Sunday’s meeting of the managers. The interest in the relay race mentioned a week ago is increasing as the day draws near, and though the full teams from each club have not been announced a close observer might notice the absence from r usual haunts of the well-known sprinters of the various clubs, as Palmer and Creede of the Emmets, Hurley and Browne of the Parnells and McInerney and Alll are, no doubt, in active training, and with good reason.

ON THE DIAMOND AT THE HAIGHT- STREET GROUNDS BY A SCRATCH NINE. THE FIELD WHERE MaNY PLAYERS Mape THEIR DEBUT Is DooMED. The stars and stripes waived yesterday for the last time over the Haight-street baseball grounds. When the colors were struck it was the signal of the defeat of those who battled to maintain the grounds for a ball-field. They fought hard and did all they could to hold the field, but they were not strong enough, and to-day the work of demolishing the grand stand and the bleachers will commence. The work will continue until in a short time nothing will remain but a memory of the diamond on which so mainy prominent ball-players have met and contested for supremacy. Yesterday the last game was played there. It had been announced tgu it would be iglz\yed between the Oaklandsand the San Franciscos for the benefit of Joe Langendorfer, in recognition of his ser- vices during the ball season as peanut artist. In that line Joe was a success, but when he saw the few that were in the benches he must have thought that not only republics and corporations, but also baseball cranks, are ungrateful. Then when U’mpire fiomlme announced of a few years since, | S A great game of ball should | Asa solace for defeat the losing | ranges yesterday and a record made that stands best on the Pacific Coast, if notin the country, for rifles at 200 yards.

Btrecker, who is a member of the California Schuetzen Club, allowed Jungblut, who belongs to the San Fran- cisco Schuetzen Club, 300 points and won by 105, making the unusuai score of 2214 out of a possible 2500. Jungblut scored 1809, and with his handicap of 300 stood finally 2109, and the loser. Fhilo Jacobi, the president of the California Schuetzen Club, said: “That is phenomenal work, es- pecially in the range and under the condi- tions. As a fact Strecker gave Jungblut 214 inches on each shot, or 225 inches in 100 shots, and then beat him by 303} inches. It was fine work.

Povey 21 Afraid of Luxuries. “Not long ago,” said H. H. Coleman of Chicago, at the Shoreham, *I had the leasure of attending a swell dinner given y one of our millionaire townsmen, at which 'Gene Field was an invited guest. Field’s brilliancy as a vriter is in inverse ratio to his ability as a money-getter. In fact, the element of thrift is sadly wanting in his makeup. There were many good things to tempt the palate, among them strawberries, which are a costly luxury in the dead of winter at Chicago. “When Field’s bowl of berries were placed beside him he looked at them with the scrutinizing air of an epicure, and then, in a very emphatic way, pushed them to one side, noticing which his host sai ‘‘‘Aren’t you fond of strawberries, Mr. Field?” * ‘Yes, very much indeed; but they spoil ?ytuppeuw for prunes.’ "—Washington ost. —.— PLEURISY PATNS, Asthmatic and all Throat affec- tions are soon relieved by that certain remedy for Coughs and Colds, Dr, Jayne's Expectorant. benefit of indigent children, classes in in- tellectual topics, which are conducted with every regard to increasing the mental ca- pacity of the pupil, and from time to time we give lectures on common topics. “‘Recently we had a series of talks on ‘Manufacturing Industries and Money dur- ing Washington’s Administration,” = Our relations with the Associated Charities are amicable.

We are preparing an exhibition of pre-Raphaelite pictures, the same as was recently given in San Francisco.” In speaking of the locality Mr. Hinckley said: “West Oakland, socially, is almost a city by itself. According to the census of 1890 there were 13,250 people in the First ‘Ward, whereas there is no other ward in Oakland that can show over . We are, in a sense, removed from close social in- terzourse with the rest of the city, and have felt the need of an institution which would have for its ob‘*cz the amelioration of the workingman. There was a bad ele- ment_here during the late strike, which has, in a measure, been removed, and we are pleased to see the standard of society here rapidly improving. “The five-room cottage adjoining the Manse on the east has been secured and will be occupied by the school of poly. clinics. Dr. Medros, resident physician of the Manse, will occupy the front room, a servant the back. and the other three rooms will be devoted to the use of the clynical board, of which Dr. Card is the president. The stalf is complete except as to dental surgery. We will also have an auxiliary board on hygiene and nursing. “We do not give out medicine, but do give free treatment to the indigent when necessary. There is no money-making feature in our work. Our object is the up- liftment, socially, of the workingman.” The Race for Mayor. Oakland will hold a most important election to-day and politics is the only topic that interests. A full line of city officials, from Mayor down, is to be chosen. The interest seeras to center in the two leading men for Mayor—J. W. Nelson, who hiis nominations from three parties, Republican, Democraticand Non-Partisan,_ and John L. Davie, who is the candidate of a strong wing of the Populists. Davie has opponents in the ranks of the Populists, but he is said to have gathered strength sufficient from other sources to overcome the defection, notably among G. A. R. veterans, of whom there are many in Oak- land. Davie speakers are making an issue of the water-front fight and say that the city under Non-Partisan rule wasted $70,000 in trying to regain the water front. Théy point to Davie and say “He would have taken the front. What is the need of paying for that which already belongs tous?” The Nelson Amopl(’, on the other hand., say that Davie did not take care of his own business affairs and should not be trusted with the city’s; that the monef paid out in the water-front fight was for legitimate expenses, and that the fight is in better shape and the prospects for the city secur- ing its own have not been so near fulfill- ment in the city’s history. One of the spe- cial attorneys for the city, William Lair Hill, has addressed a large meeting defin- ing the position of the city in the case. %he Nelsonites say that Davie made his best showing in the last campaign, when he was beaten by Pardee. The voteat that time was 3500 for Pardee, 2700 for Davie, 2300 for Fitzgerald, 960 for Barker and 47 for Dr. Woolsey. Davie’s opponents say it will be impossible for him to increase this vote and that Nelson will beat him 2 to 1. The figures of Nelson’s friends are 5000 for their favorite and 3000 for Davie. This is the most, they say, that he can possibly get. Davie petiple, however, pooh-pooh this assertion. They say that their favorite was beaten last election by a trick, and that had not Fitzgerald been run in as an afterthought he would have secured all the Democratic votes that went to him, and that with a clear field this time he will get nearly all this vote. The Davie people make no_figures on their man, but insist that he will be elected. Conservative peo- ple estimate that if he gets in it will be by a very close vote. Beggars Take the Town. Oakland is overrun with crippled and deformed beggars, black and white, and they have become so bold that if refused alms by the passer-by thef become insult- ing and brutal. Theend of it is that a citi- zen would sooner give than submit to their insults. They have a rendezvous in a shanty on Ninth street, between Franklin and Web- ster, erected by Ambrose Sanders for a cheap eating-house. And in this place five or six cripples and a number of tramps hold forth and terrorize the neighborhood. Their orgies and carousals are said to be something fearful, Among them are two legless negroes, both said to have bank ac- counts, 2 They, with their crippled white com- panions, waylay citizens — men and women—and "have made themselves a nuisance in the town. The police have ar- rested some of them, but complain that this is useless, as they are let ofpwith such light fines that they find no trouble in keeping out of prison. The people in the vicinity of Ninth and Franklin “streets, where this rabble is housed, haye become so sick of their unde- sirable neighbors that they threaten to clean out the place if the police do not soon take steps to that end. An Angry Candidate. Ross Morgan, who 1s the Non-Partisan candidate for City Engineer, has been ac- cused by his enemies of having, with his father, wrecked the office of City Engineer when they retired from it to make room Mr. Bennett made arrangements ye: terdu;; with Walter Foster, the ex-cham- pion bicyelist of the Pacific Coast, to ma! a trial for the world’s record for one mile | straightaway on the speed boulevard.
