THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, MARCH 12, 1895 COULD TARDLY BE CALLED A HATCH ROMAIR WENT TO THE POST LAME AND WAS NEVER IN IT WITH INGOMAR, VORITES FARED WELL, REDEEMED HIMSELF By | EATING Lucky Dog anp | OTHERS HaNDILY. | 10t0 1, Conde 5 to 1, San Lucas 30 to 1, Sea Spray 7101, Vuican 20 to 1, Howard 100 to 1, Catalogue 100 to 1, Motto 12 to 1. Around the Ring. Griffin rode the winner of the first two races and was second on Roma and Rear i Guard. Felix Carr did not ride yesterday. Joe Rose got down off his block long enough to play Roma for the place. = Dave Gideon was credited with a *kill- ing”’ over the win of George L. Charley Quinn was scooting around the ring, getting aboard Lucky Dog at the top price. ¢ Mose Gunst thought 20 to 1 against Thornbill a long price and took a chance. Bookmaker Hayden played Ferrier on ;1_.0 outside and laid 6 to 5, the field against him. Frank Dale smiled when he saw George L get away in front and began feeling for his tickets. A Pittsburg Phil didn’t make much noise about it, butfhad a good-sized bet down on Ferrier. quiet money also went on Ross in the last race. Barney Schreiber stood to cash some good bets if Hiram Argo won. _The bank roll of the wealthy young Englishman, J. Talbot Clifton, was dimin. | ished to the extent of § v the match | race at the track yesterday between his | horse Romair and the Kentucky stable’s | Ingomar. The distance was seven fur- | longs, each horse to carry 120 pounds. As | a betting affair the match a decided | failure, Ingomar being an odds on favorite. | Romair went to the post on three legs and | finished on_two. It was only through suf- | ance t Chorn allowed Romair to keep within a length of his mount, and contented himself with winning by a couple of lengths. Romair pulled up so | lame that it was with difficulty that he limped back to the paddock. The Bur- | lingame horseman took the matter very philosophically and seemed to feel keener the loss of his friends that had bet on the crippled racer than he did of his own van- ished wealth, The cool weather evidently had a de- ssing effect on the speculative frater- for betting was much lighter than on most of the days last week. It was a very good day for favorites, five of the six events going to the first choice. | Examiner, the 8 to 5 favorite, won the | opening race for maidens over the short six-furlong course after adrive with Aretic, also heavily backed. Locl was third. J O C got away with his | jockey and ran two and three-quarter miles before he was then excused. Griffin followed up his success in the opening event finishing in Ferrier, the favorite, for the second race, a | full six-furlong run.” The big chestnut was | a4 to 5chance, with Lucky Dog a very | warm second choice, going to the post 7 to | 5. Quirt and Thornhill receiyed some back- | ing for the place. | Lucky Dog delayod the start for some | time, refusing to line up with his field, and | when the flag finally feil he got the worst of the start. Quirt, away third, took the lead, holding until an eighth from the wire, where the favorite collared and passed her | and won easily by one and a haif lenpths. | Lucky Dog was third, about the same dis- | tance behind Quirt. The third was distinctly a “crab” race and nearly every i 3 support. Rom hing in it received some | seemed to be the best of & poor lot and was made a2 to 1 favorite. | Considerable wise money went in on George L, cutting his price from 8 to 5 to 1. | Mutineer and Road strongly played When the flag fell it was to a very strag- | gling start, George L getting away in front. | fe held his lead throughout, winning by | three parts of a length from Roma. on | which Griffin put up a delightfully listless | fin Steadfast finished in third place. With any kind of a fair start, Mutineer, | who got ‘several lengths the worst of the star ould have been close to the money. hat very rapid little bit of horseflesh, Nebuchadnezzar, fairly waltzed away with | the fifth race, a mile selling affair. Com- mission opened a 7to 5 favorite, but re- ceded in the betting until he was second | chol Rear Guard remained at threes | tbroughout the betting. A play on Mollie | )\:(]15 brought her price down from 30 to 12 | to 1. Nebuchadnezzar, bubbling over with | run, led from start'to nnish, winning under | restraint by a length from Rear Guard, | who nosed Commission out the last few jumps. Bernardo pulled up bleeding pro- | fuse The last event on the card, a five-furlong spin, was taken by the favorite, Venus,who | 100k the lead shortly after the flag fell, and | never headed, wi | parts of a length from Ross. Hiram Argo, | who would have been very dangerous had | he not beencut off once, finished third. | The winner, Venus, opened up 8 to 5, but | receded in the betting until 12to 5 was at | one time obtainable. | | SUMMARY. | SAN FraNcisco, March 11,1895, | 57Q, FIRST RACE — About six farlongs; | DI O. maidens; d upward; | purse $300. | 1 Horse. weight, jockey. . 1% Str.

SULD BY DRUGGISTS, Pike’s Toothache Drops Cure in One Minute, OAKLAND VISITED BY MRS. PERRINE. THE PRESIDENT'S MOTHER-IN- LAW WITH FRIENDS IN THE CITY OF CHURCHES. DOWLING NOT IN CONTEMPT i JUDGE OGDEN ORDERS ALIMONY FRrROM VARIOUS DERELICT SPOUSES. The mother-in-law of the President of | the United States, Mrs. Henry E. Perrine, is ng in Oakland. Mrs. Perrine arrived a few days since with her husband and is the guest of Mrs. H. B. Hall at 1601 Telegraph avenue. Mr. Hall is a brother-in-law of Mr. Perrine. { Mr. Perrine was a resident of California | back in the fifties, and has many old busi- | ness and personal friends on the coast. He was engaged in the mercantile busi- ness in 1857 in San Francisco and after- ward returned to the East, where he mar- | ried shortly after the wedding of his wife’s daughter with Grover Cleveland. Mrs. Perrine is a lady of very quiet tastes, but owing to her relation to the President she is rendered somewhat of a national character and is always the sub- ject of attention in traveling about. She said yesterday that although their stay in Omaha was but brief she was the subject of much attention from members ofthApraNens FH i e Yoverelad by the demands made on their time from this source. A part of yesterday was spent by Mr. and Mrs. Perrine with San Francisco friends. Tt is their intention to leave for Los Angeles the last of the week and to start for a return trip to their home in Buffalo, N ., the last of March. The Ferrines attended the First Presby- terian’Church in Oakland on Sunday night. Dowling Dismissed Judge Frick yesterday dismissed the contempt proceedings against D. E. Dow- ling an(Y discharged defendant. Dowling is the superintendent of the Standard Soap Works at Berkeley, of which Captain lrhomas, the insolvent cap- italist, was the president. When Thomas became involved he transferred 1020 shares of stock of the California National Bank to Dowling, and the assignee of the bank, John Chetwood Jr., asked the court to find out under what circumstances and why this transfer was made. Judge Frick accordingly cited Dowling to appear and show what he had done ear and took with the stock. Yesterday Dowling did a& the stand to tell his story. e said he had no further control over the stock, that be- fore the order of the court was served on him he had transferred it to a man named Parker of Ogden. This transfcr was made January 21 last. When asked if Parker was notan agent of the soag company, { Dowling said he was; that he had handled the goods, but was not employed by the company. In considering the matter Judge Frick said that though there was evidence in sup- port of the allegation that Dowling had been assisting Thomas to defeat his creditors, the testimony at present did not show that he wasin a position to comply with the court’s order, and the contempt proceed- ings were accordingly dismissed. ‘Barthow Ordered to Account. Hannah A. Barthow died in Oakland February 26, 1886, leaving considerable property. William Barthow was made ad- ministrator. One of the heirs under the will was Miss Rebecca Douglass, daughter of deceased, who yesterday entered suit | against Barthow. In her complaint she | alleges that she was absent from California at the time of her mother's death, and that she did not hear of it until 1891, stat- | ing that the fact was concealed from her, She arrived in California in DecemberJast, | and has since been investigating thor- | oughly the affairs connected with her dead | mother’s estate. | She says the mother left a large property in Odakland and San Francisco, and in her will made plaintiff the beneficiary, but she now alleges that this property Barthow has put to his own uses. Included in the property is a portion bringing in an income of $30. Out of this Miss Douglass says she has had no ac- counting and that Barthow has refused to return into court any inventory of the | estate. It isalleged that since 1886 he has | collected rents, but has frandulently con- verted the same to his use. Barthow has been given until March 25 to file a full account of his actions as ad- ministrator of the estate. Three Legs for Five Men. The five crippled beggars who have been housed on Ninth street, near Franklin, for some time, were all arrested Sunday night for drunkenness and fighting, and yester- day morning appeared in the Police Court a queer jumble of humanity. Three of these men, of whom two are colored, have no legs, but go about on stumps. A fourth man has one leg and the fifth has two legs, but misshapen feet. The others jumpes on the latter and were preparing to carve him with a knife, when the officers arrived on the scene. Then there was scattering and the cripples tried to run away from the police, but were quickly overhauled. Most of the men have been arrested for begging, but Judge Wood found it impossi- ble to hold them under the general law. He gave them a strong dose for drunken- ness, however. Sixty days was the sen- tence for two of them, five days for a third and three days each for the other two. The Money Lying Idle. Suit has been brought by Aurelia E. | James and Cornelia E. Booth against the Oakland Bank of Savings, Grant I. Taggart, and George 8. Montgomery, executors of the will of Francis A. Bell, deceased, to re- cover from the bank named the sum of $6350 alleged to_be on deposit there in the name of plaintiffs and Francis A. Bell. The executors hold that the money in question is a part of the estate, but the plaintiffs deny this and will make a fight jor the same. He Wants $25,000 Damnages. The Oakland Consolidated Street Rail- road Company has been sued by W.T. | Wheatley for §25,000 damages for injnries sustained by his wife, Sarah Wheatley, in March, 1893, in a car collision at Sixteenth and Grove streets, when she received in- fi)ries such as to render heran invalid. r. Wheatley sues for expense incurred and for being” deprived of gis wife’s com- fort and society. The Home Directors Upheld. Some time since an inmate of the Adult Blind Home, Herbert Tuck, was expelled from that institution by the directors, and he smg,ht reinstatement by the courts. Judge Ogden decided on a demurrer to the petition only. The case wa: gesled to the Sus ody has just deci ors of the home. Tonks Must Put Up.

He was a native of Pennsylvania, aged 46 years. He leaves a widow and daughter. The subscriptions at the First Presby- terian Church on Sunday last to lift the church debt of $10,000 amounted to $6000. Lawrence Harris was arrested in San Pablo yesterday and brought to the County Jail. He is charged with failure to pay his wife alimony. ALAMEDA, Antone Galindo made a gruesome dis- covery yesterday morning near a weeping | willow on Prospect street in the inclosure of the vegetable gardens of Bruzzone Bros. | Galindo is a scavenger and kicked a bundle of papers and exposed to view a new-born male infant. The discovery was reported at the police station, and Deputy Coroner Wever went after the remains. The body was wrapped in a piece of cloth, evidently | torn from an undergarment around which | was a copy of the CALL of February 12. There was nothing to indicate the identity of the mother of the babe, and she will probably keep her shame a secret. The {)ody bore no marks of violence, but an autopsy will be necessary to ascertain whether it ever breathed. The birth could not have occurred many hours prior to the discovery. School Improvements. The School Directors have decided to award the contract for painting the Knci nal and Haight school-buildings to Will- iam F. Burns for $850. 'W. P. Dillon, who made a bid for $1100, will superintend the work under a bond of $500. The contractor who will build the annex o the Porter school-building has announced his readi- ness to proceed with the work, and Super- intendent of Schools Sullivan dismissed the pupils yesterday for two weeks during the period that the building will be raised. Will Not Run. A petition signed by 247 citizens was pre- sented to Colonel Babcock yesterday re- questing him to stand as a nominee for the oftice of City \tmrnef' at the coming municipal election. Colonel Babcock an- swered positiv that he would not be a candidate, considering it as against the best interests of the Good Government Club, of which he is chairman. Into Actual Practice. A petition is being circulated asking the City Trustees to submit to the people the question of making a special tax levy of 25 cent on the $100 for the purpose of erecting library building. The petition will be ® filed with the City Clerk ina few days, and | the referendum will be put to a test at the coming spring election. Third Party. The Non-Partisan party of Alameda held its convention last night at Harmony Hall. The convention was called to order by Chairman I. P. Allen, The Harmony: ites always draw a good crowd and last night was no exception to the rule. Another Fire. The department was called out last even- ing at 6:30 o'clock for a chimney fire in the house at 910 Eagle avenue, occupied by H. T. Stagrave, a clerk of Oakland. Dam- age nominal. BERKELEY, Mrs. P. Vollmer of West Berkeley was awakened about 5 o'clock yesterday morn- ing by the grip of fingers on her throat. Leaning over the bed was a man attempt- | ing to choke her into silence.

HE MeT WI1TH ROUGH TREATMENT ‘WHILE PERFORMING His DuTy AT Napa. The Fish Commissioners have evidently been perusing the articles which were pub- lished in the CALL recently relative to the killing of trout during the closed season. “The newly appointed Commissioner, Harry Emeric,” said R. Huson, “is cer- tainly cutting out a good and serviceable policy in dispatching officers to places where the law is being violated, This is something the Commissioners of the past had neglected, and, as a consequence the streams adjacent to this city have been for some years past fished out by the 1st of April. I am more than pleased to see Mr. Emeric giving his attention to an im- portant matter which had been neglected s0 long, and that is the atop{;\ing of poaching in fresh-water streams, and especially dur- ing this month. A full board composed of such men as Mr. Emeric would soon bring about the good sport anglers enjoyed eight or ten years ago.” J. H. Davis, a newly appointed Deputy Fish Commissioner, has done excellent service since he commenced to patrol the streams. A few days ago Mr. Davis made an arrest of a poacher near Napa, and as the former was leavin? that town he re- ceived a warm send-off from the friends of gathered pur- posely to ‘‘egg’’ the dep“‘g as the latter was boarding the cars for this city. While the eggs were flying around the officer, an old lady caught one of the missiles on her ear, the contents of which ruined her dress. Although the affair was witnessed by constables of Napa no arrests fol- lowed. - On Sunday last Mr, Davis visited Glen Ellen, and’ succeeded in bagging a man who had a_basket of fine trout. The poacher was brought up before Justice of the Peace Gibson, who imposed a fine of $25, which sum was paid. The Justice has set a good example, which will materially assist to rid the beautiful stream of Glen Ellen of a class of men who cannot see any }mrm in transgressing the fish and game aws. e Work of an Improvement Club. Quite an assemblage of people representing the newly formed Chenery-street and Fair- mount Improvement Club met yesterday after- noon for the purpose of obtaining alectric lights, sewerage, water, etc. The following- named officers were elected: President, John L. McLauglan; vice-president, Thomas F. Crouch; treasurer, John McCaulley ; secretary, John Ward; sergeant-at-arms, John Kerrigan.

Oh! How Nasty They Are! I took a bottle of Sarsaparilla containing iodide of potassium, thinking to cleanse my blood. I never thought what a lot of worry it would entail. Things were running easily in my life until I woke up one fine morning and looking in the glass discovered those pimples. When I peered in the mirror I was bewildered. Never before had my face been covered with so many red blotches. Henry was coming to see me that night and he wounld be sure to ask me a whole lot of questions about those pimples. I hurriedly dressed and eagerly ran downstairs to breakfast. It was served in its accustomed home-likeness, and I thought I would at least enjoy a good breakfast before any one tortured meabout those pimples; but lo and behold ! As soon as Sambo brought in the coffee he forgot that he was a servant and exclaimed: “Law! Missus! What has done come over your face ?*’ These words rang in my ears like the cannonading at Alexandria. “Whathasdone come over your face ?”” I had no appetite for breakfast. T had no desire to face Henry with those red blotches. Mother soon came in, and, of course, she had to declare: “My dear child! what | have you been doing to yourself ?” When I told her that T had been taking a sarsapa- rilla containing iodide of potassium she called in the family physician, and he told her that iodide of potassium is a mineral drug and that invariably he or she who takes have those red blotches, those horrid pimples, those sore trademarks on their face. Now it is & positive fact, it is a truthful state ment, indeed, it is the veriest truth, that the Great Home Remedy—JOY’'S VEGETABLE SARSAPARILLA—contains no mineral drugs, no deadly poisons; it is wholly and entirely made up of herbs grown in the foothills, in the valleys, on the mountain tops of our own State—California. He or she who desires a good blood medicine, a liver regulator and a stomach alter- ative can make no mistake in using Joy’s Vegetable Sarsaparilla. When your druggist gives you a substitute be sure and see that the bottle contains no iodide of potassium. Sarsaparilla containing iodide of potassium will surely bring out pimples on the face. Joy’s Vegetable Sarsaparilla contains noiodide of potassium or any mineraldrng. That this is true is certain, and to make assurance doubly sure, ask the well-known chemists, Thomas Price & Sons, whether or not Joy’s Vegetable Sarsaparilla contains any mineral drug. This remedy has been analyzed by these good chemists, and they declare it to be free of all mineral drugs, and of all deadly mineral poisons. TESTIMONIALS. nearly drove me frantic.

T had been troubled for a long time with liver and Kidney troubles, and had tried many remedies with little or no effect, but your Californian Remedy acted like magic with me, and with the first bottle I was relteved from a_case of the worst sick head- ache that one ever has.

Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla being recommended to me for general debility, I commenced taking it. It allayed the nervousness and made me sleep more soundiy than had been my habit.
