Two Sailors Fight With Knife and Re- volver on Barbary Coast. John. Papavacchi, a sailor, became in- volved in a quarrel with Constantini Bian- chiani in a saloon at 11 Vallejo street late last night, and used a knife to defend him- self from the revolver wielded by Bian- chiani. Both men are in the Receiving Hospital in dangerous conditions. Papavacchi has three bullets in his_bedy, while the other man has three knife wounds on his head, two on his left armand two on his left side.. He may die. e The two men had been drinking together and became involved in a dispute. They went outside and began usiu§ stron; language. Papavacchi pulled his knife an stabbed Bianchiani in the head before the later could use hisrevolver. The knife-wielder followed up his man and had inflicted serious wounds before Bianchiani fired the first shot, which struck his asuilanlt)o‘iin the breast and passed through his A Befgre the hlogdy duel ended both men were in a dangerous condition.

BUSYBRUSHES AND PALETTES SaN FraNcIsco PRoMISES TO TAKE A PROMINENT PLACE IN ART WORK. Art work has begun in earnest for the year, and all the students in the city are busy with brush and pen. The art feeling is growing stronger and stronger evi day, it seems, for the classes are steadily increasing in size, and the number of pic- tures to be submitted at the spring exhi- bition promises to far exceed those of any preceding year. | The general opinion seems among thc: older artists to be that work this year will be found to be especially good, but there is | no concealing the fact that there is a woeful lack of unity among even the s(ude'ms, ‘ much less the more advanced artists. | There is no pulling to- gether for the general artistic welfare of the local arti: There has been thin the past few weeks some excessively bad form made plain by the ac- tion of established ar- tists that ought to know better than be impolite to a stranee. The meeting held F day night at the in- stituteshowed no com- munity of feeling, and this in the face of the fact that art in San Francisco never before showed 0 many signs of promise. 1t is to the older ar- tists that the students look for encourage- ment and advice, but if these elders are squabbling among themselves and saying ill-natured things of each other there is lit- tle hope for cohesion among the students, and it is among the latter that the success of the art futare of the city lies hidden. The fact that John Laforge is to exhibit in_a separate gallery this year at the Champsde Mars Salon a collection of his works is being talked about right and left as a proof that the Amer- ican artist is deemed worthy of the strong- est commendation from the most careful judges in Europe. La- forge has shown by his career what an American artist can do, and the fact that he is to be accorded a separate gallery in the salon referred to provesthe possibilities that lie before each young artist on the Pacific Coast. It also shows that in order to succeed the student must neglect nosingle branch of bis work. In all that the term applies, Laforge is a master of his art. A W. Buck is distinctively consistent, so far as her knowledge of her teacher goes. What she may do depends to a greatex- ~——TF Clnpman, Mo s e A Quiet Smoke.

There are so many young men and wo- men intent upon artic- tic careers that one sees paint boxes and palettes in almost every corner. Up out-of-the-way stairs and to the to; floors of dingy build- ings there is a” steady rush and scurry to catch morning lights, - noon lights or which- ever particular hou light best suits their studio and subject. Young artists gen- erally prefer water- colors as a medium, and the four students, specimens of whose work are reproduced herewith, promise, ac- cording to their teach- er, Mr. Latimer, to do strong work this year. It is not. prophesied thatall the young artists of the city are bud- ding Lafarges, but from the reception ten- dered California work at the Columbian Ex- position there isevery ground for believing that among the students now working there are many future salon exhibitors. C. P. Neilson's “Mexican Water Cooler” is a fair representative of that gentleman’s work., In most of his studies he shows delicacy of treatment, with just a trace too much of the impressionist. ~ As his teacher is amything but impressionistic the ten- dencyis personal. In her “Young Redwood" study Mrs, M. his study, “An Es- thetic Maiden,”shows, he has undoubted abil- i Miss Josephine E. Chapman is one of the most energetic of San Francisco's young students, and energy was a long time ago said to be the soul of genius. Among the other Latimer students who are promising are: Miss H. S. Coleman, Who is studying hard in water colors; Miss Alice L. Roberts, in black and white; Miss Fanny C. Condon, in water colors; Miss E. Berwick of Oakland; ‘William Ireland of Oakland; P. H. Rud- dock, Misses E. and L. Humason, of Port- land, who are study- ing here; Miss L. H. Allyne and Miss A. F. Gish. All of the students in the city have their artistic salvation to work out for them- selves, but the fact that so many of them are at work — some independently and some under tuition— promises a future for the city’s art. The older artists who are watching the work of the youngsters de- clare that within a o) A MEXICAN WATER-COOLER. [From an eriginal sketch made for the “Caill” by C. P. Neilson.] that within a very short time the entire art feeling Liere will have undergone a very material change. Every now and then come stories from the Eastern cities, such as the reports of Miss Alice Donlevy’s success and a point- ment as chairman of the committee on technical art training for the S*ate of New York in the woman’s division 'of the At- lanta Exposition. Miss Donlevy is a West- ern girl who went East, and her work has proven that the Western scholar has noth- ing to fear from comparison with the stu- dents of any other geographical location. ) FOUL JURDER IN CHINATOWN. J. B. FORMAN OF BERKELEY, OUT ON A GooD TIME, ROBBED AND SLAIN, FATAL BLOW IN THE NECK. Two EXx-CONVICTS ARRESTED ON SuspicioN oF COMMITTING THE CRIME. J. B. Forman, a woolworker, 35 years of age, was found dead in Cum Cook alley, Chinatown, by Officer Bakulich at 7: o’clock yesterday morning. Investigation revealed that it was a case of murder, and “Piggy” Johnson and Billy Madden, who have done time at Folsom and San Quen- tin, were arrested on suspicion of having connection with it. Forman was believed to have been em- ployed by George S. Webb at 2131 Bancroft way, Berkeley. He came over to San Francisco on Saturday evening on a ‘“‘good time” bent. He visited the tenderloin dis- tricts, Barbary Coast and Chinatown. ‘While drinking in a saloon on Jackson street he ran across the men who are now held on suspicion of having struck him the blow on the back of the neck which caused a meningeal hemorrhage of the brain and spinal cord, from which cause Forman died. As an evidence that robbery was the mo- tive of the murder the pockets in the clothes of the dead man were turned in- | side out when the body was found. There | was nothing of value found on his person. A few cards bearing the addresses of sa- | loons and disreputable persons were found in his pockets, showing that the unfortu- nate man had made the rounds before he came to his sad and untimely end. The body was removed to the Morgue and Dr. Rachael made the autopsy with the results already stated. Sergeant Conboy and Detective Bohen | and 2 number of others went to work on | the case. Conboy, so long and thoroughly acquainted with the district, soon fell on | the trail of the dead man the night pre- vious and learned that he had for his drinking companions the ex-convicts, | Jonnson and Madden. The three men were last seen together in Chinatown at a late hour on Saturday night. Forman was very drunk. While making the tour of the saloons he spent money freely, and |it was this extravagant generosity that first attracted the attention of ti@crimi- nals, who soon wormed their way into his graces. The ex-convicts were the last persons seen in the company of Forman, and this circumstancd makes the case against them | quite strong. They were found by Ser- geant Conboy and Detective Bohen in the company of degraded women in a disrepu- table lodging-house on Jackson street, near Kearny, and were taken to the new City Hall Priton. Cum Cook alley runs off Dupont, between Jackson and Pacilic streets, and is inhab- | ited by the gambling and criminal classes of Chinese. It is narrow, dark and lonely, especially after midnight, when drunken- | ness and debanch have Staggered home, | and is well adapted for the waylaying and striking down in cold blood of an unsus- pecting person. There the highbinder is seen to come out of his hole like the rat to bask in the sun: there is found the dens of | the Chinese women of forgotten virtue; there the opium-smoker hits the pipe an dreams his life away. Frank Johnson, alias “‘Piggy,” is a grad- uate in crime from the old Industrial School. Then he served two terms in the | House of Correction for petty larceny and | rand larceny. On November 25, 1891, he | was arrested by Detective Cody, along with Con_Shea, Jimmy Boyd and Elias Flop- boyd, for burglary, and got_three years in Folsom penitentiary. is now 37 years of age. ‘William Madden, alias Ryder, is an all- round ‘‘crook.”’” He is 2 ars of age. On November 19, 1836, he received two and a | half years for burglary in the second de- | gree, and on_September 7, 1889, he re- ceived a similar sentence for burglary. His last sentence was on September 27, 1892, when he was sent to San Quentin for two years for burglary. | Standish Webb, son of T. F. Webb, | whose card was found in Forman’s pocket, | states that last summer a man who gave | | his name as Benjamin Forman was em- ployed at his futfmr‘s ranch, about four miles from Gazelle, Siskivou County. About six months ago this man left the ranch and came down to San Francisco to look for work. His cousin was a stone- cutter, employed at San Francisco. Noth- ing was heard of Benjamin Forman after | that. While there he claimed to hail from Ohio. He isa man about 35 years old, of | medium size, as near as voung Webb can | recollect. While in Gazelle, where he was employed for several months, he received | no mail. MISS BURROUGHS IN JUDAH She Will Be the Attraction at the Bald- win for This Week—At the Other Theaters. Miss Marie Burroughs will be seen to- night in the character in which she made her first great success, that of Vashti, the fasting girl in Henry ArthurJones’ drama, “Judah.” Tt will be presented at the Baldwin Theater just as it was given when E. 8. Willard carried it successfully through the Eastern cities. The play gives Miss Burroughs a wide scope for the display of her talents, and also Mr. Kel- lerd. who plays the role made prominent by Mr. Willard. “Judah” is said to be an interesting play in many respects. Like other works of its author, and like the great Tun of the playsof to-day, it lays stress on the moral responsibility of man and woman, and emphasizes the old but ever-truthful thought that whatever a man soweth that shall he also reap. At the California Theater “A Temper- ance Town’’ will begin its last week. None of Mr. Hoyt's comedies of recent years has been such a glittering success as this. The Charles Riggs Company, headed by Miss Rose Stillman, a pretty’and capable actress, will present “‘The Clemenceau Case” at the Alcazar Theater this evening. Miss Stiliman’s impersonation of Iza has been spoken of very highly, and A. C. Henderson, who plays Pierre, is well known as a good actor. A x_xoveity will be introduced to San Francisco in conjunction with the play in the form of a whirlwind dance, which™ is performed by the Sisters O’Brien from the Alhambra, London. The Orpheum will bring out some new people to-night. Among them are Magee and Crimmins, grotesque comedians,s[m | not disappointed. Regolancita and her sisters, dancers, and the brothers Forrest, singing comedians. The bill at the Tivolifor this week is Lecocq’s opera_ ‘‘Girofle-Girofia.” All of the Tivoli favorites will be seen in the cast. The burleSqI\{xe “‘Pocahontas,” produced by the Marie Rostelle burlesque company, will be the attraction at the Wigwam. A double bill will be presented at Stock- well’s. “The Black Crook” and ‘“Humpty Dumpty” and a number of new specialties will undoubtediy prove a strong attraction. So great has been the success of *‘In the Ranks” at Morosco’s Grand Opera-house that it will be continued for another week. For the third time since the opening of the theater under the present management a piece will be produced fora fortnight. Maud Edna Hall, the new leading lady, has made a distinct hit, and the entire company is doing most excellent work. As anovelty Company D of the Third Regi- ment will allow its drill corps to appear in the barracks scene during the remainder of the performances. —— WHY THERE WAS NO MUSIC. The Market-Street Rallway Managers Thought the Weather Was Bad. IfTovers of music who visit Golden Gate Park on Sundays to hear Scheel’s men play wish to avoid disappointment in the future they must see that flags announcing a concert in the park are flying on the Market-street cable-cars. If thereare no flags there will be no music. It has become a rule with the street rail- road company to fly flags on the cars, and in this way musicians learn whether they are to report at the band stand. Should the day be cloudy and threatening the rail- road managers decide to keep the flags in shelter. For sbme reason yesterday was regarded by them as too dufl and unpleas- ant to tempt crowds to take an outing in the park and no band played. Thousands of people Went out to the park, but were sorely disappointed after waiting on the benches in front of the mu- sicians’ shell pavilion. The majority of the people felt as if they had been drawn to a fake show and commenced to move away, but there were many who retained their seats, hugging the fond hope that the hour for commencement had been changed. 1. C. CogginsJthe manager of the band, when seen last evening, said: ‘It is too bad so many people were disappointed, but it is not the musicians’ fault. We got the usual notice that we were not wanted and we did not go to thé park.” *‘And this notice was?”’ “Why, the railroad company has the management of the concerts, and for years the musicians have been notified by flags. That is, if on concert days they see flags ANOTHER KEEL SCHOONER-TACHT LA PALOMA THE FINEST CRAFT OF HER DIMENSIONS ON THE BAY. TO JOIN THE CORINTHIANS. EXTENSIVE CHANGES BEING MADE IN ANUMBER OF THE YacHTS, The next new craft to be slipped off the ways and ushered into the mystical circle of yachting will be La Paloma, which is nearing completion at Stone’s shipyard, at Hunters Point, for Messrs. James Gre- holber of Sacramento and C. A. Hoffman of this city, From an interview with one of these owners it was gleaned that before the season opens two other prominent yachtsmen will buy a quarter interest each in her. La Paloma is essentially a cruiser, being rigged as a schooner, and in every dimension comfort is considered. The overall length is 48 feet, with almost a straight stem (typical of all of Stone’s craft), but the stern has more overhang than is usual in his boats. Her stern does = THE NEW YACHT LA PALOMA, [Sketched by a *“ Call” artist.] with the words “Concert at the Park to- | day” on cars of the Market-street Railway | noon and noon they know that they are to | report at the band ‘stand. If no such flags | appear then they know that they are not wanted. No flags were displayed and that | is why the musicians were not at the band stand. | ““Why the flags were not put up I do not know, but suppose it was because the weather lookelfthreatening.” | THE LAST OF THE SEASON. BRILLIANT CLOSING GAME OF GAE- LIC FOOTBALL AT CEN- TRAL PARK. THE EMMETS DEFEAT THE PaR- NELLS BY TWELVE POINTS | TO SIX. The last Gaelic football game of the season was played in Central Park yester- day afternoon between the Parnells and Emmets. It attracted an unusually large | number of spectators, who expected to see a struggle for supremacy, .and they were | ‘When these teams meet it is a foregone | conclusion that all the tricks in the game will be brought into play, and the referee 1 has no sinecure. Yesterday was no ex- | ception. Captain Andy McInerney of the San Franciscos was referee, but before the first half was over he retired, and President | J. Donovan filled the breach. Then the | tricky play was kept in check and the game was played-and won on 1ts merits. The Emmets Flayed a more dashing game than the Parnells and won by a| score of 12 to 6. There were many indi- | vidudl plays of brilliancy which called | forth tl‘:e cheers of the spectators. In | this respect D. Sugrue, Captain Palmerand | Maurice Daly of the Emmets and George Browne, Cai)tain Hurley and Condon of the Parnells particularly distinguished themselves. At 3 p. . the teams lined up as fol- lows: Parnells. Positions. oal . Fitzgerald J. ’Dowd | gru 31 Dal Creede | Murray.. Hurley (Capt. Condon Shinkwi Casey | Keleher. Jowd | Blattery. ‘Walsh | The Fmmets, after some even play, started the scoring by D. Sugrue makinga Qoint by a fine kick from the right wing. Condon promptly followed suit by scorin, a point for the Parnells. Then ‘the ball | was rushed down the field and out of a sharp scrimmage D. Sugrue succeeded in scoring another point. Both sides made several unsuccessful tries for goal, till Daly, in one of his rushes, sent the ball straight between the posts. Horgan caught it just in the nick of time and swiped it back. Cnse{‘ secured it and made a fine shot, which was helped along by M. O’Dowd, who swiped the ball through goal. The first half closed with seven points for the Emmets and one point for the Parnells. In the second half the play was fast and furious. The Parnells, as usual, assumed the offensive, but the Emmets were as eager for business, and soon M. O’Dowd scored a fioal for them, which staggered the Parnells. D. Sugrue narrowly missed another goal, and Casey was equally un- fortunate. Then Captain Hurley had a try at the Emmets’ goal, but the shot was too high. Just about the close Keleher scored a goal for the Parnells, which left the Emmets six points ahead. ———— For the Mexican Exposition, Five of the eight gentlemen who have been eppointed by Governor Budd Commissioners to the Mexican Exposition of Industrial and Fine Arts, met at the Palace Hotel yesterday after- noon and organized. Colonel A. Andrews of this city was elected temporary president, H. Weinstock of Sacramento was chosen temporary vice-president and E. J. Molera of this city was elected secretary. A commitiee was appointed to ask the Legislature for favorable recom- mendation to the public. The Commission is to be supported by a percentage of money se- cured from sales of ifornia products at the exposition. SPURIOUS coin has no ring.

This will give her when floated a draft of about three feet. The bows{)rlt runs out board fully fifteen feet, on which will be carried d\.ugle headsails, The cockpit is very large for a craft of her length, but is well guarded by a high rail. 1t is built seli-bailing. Entering the cabin one is struck by the way uver_\'lhini aims at the one object of comfort. The highest point of head room is reached in the main saloon, which is 6 feet 4 inches, while in the galley there is at_least 6 feet. On the port side forward will be the lavatory, next to which there will be a 734-foot stateroom, which opens into the main saloon. On the starboard side forward will be the galley, next to which is another 74-foot stateroom, also opening into the main saloon. Forward o?both the lavatory and the galley will be the chain-lockers and storage-room. The main saloon is about 10 feet long, taking in the full width of the yacht. In the center of this will be placed the cabin table, secured to the main mast. The finish throughout the yacht, in- cluding the cockpit, will be in natural woods with a_high finish. It has not as yet been settled whether it will be of a light or dark nature. Along each side of the main saloon will be seats covered with red plush cushions, which, when necessity | demands, can be converted into sleeping bunks to accommodate at least four per- sons. The planking of this craft is of one and one-half inch cedar, while the ribs are of two and one-half by two and one-quarter steam-bent oak. The deck and cabin top are of one and one-half inch cedar. The steering will be done by wheel. It is thought that she will be well tuned up by the opening day of the Corinthian Yacht Club, of which one of her owners is a mem- ber. By the new measurement rule lately adopted. by this club La Paloma wiil be disqualified from competing in the an- nual regatta of the club. Stone has the keel set for a forty-footer for Mr. Donohue of San Mateo. This craft is of the modern type having a big over- hang forward and aft, with’ a very light draft. The yacht Daw is on the ways at Hun- ters Point, being thoroughly overhauled by her owner Captain Frank Bartlett. It will be fully a month before she will be | ready to go into commission again. Among the visiting yachtsmen to the yards yesterday was Captain Ames of the Elia, Richardson of the Dawn, E. Cur- rera of the old La Poloma and Commo- dore Tangent Cosine. The yacht Catherine, owned by Captain Southerland, has lately been overhauled | and repointed. She has been given a new bowsprit, which is fully twice as long as | the one taken out, which will enlarge the headsail. This was done to correct the terrible weather helm that she carried. The yachtsmen have been wondering ‘what the captain of The Pride of the Bay is going to carry on the 60-foot mast he has in his craft. Surely not sails? Half of the length would be an overabundance.
