THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, APRIL 9, 1895. A JOCKEY'S BAD TUMBLE, Young Reeves, Who Had the Mount on Chemuck, Se- verely Injured. THEY BEAT THE FAVORITE. McLight Downed the Field in the Mile Race Very Cleverly Yesterday. Jockeys of the feather-weight persuasion are in great demand at the track these d: nd to secure one of any note it is necessary to get a permit from the Chief of Police, put in an application about ten days beforehand, and if the pedigree of your horse extends back to the cub mare, you may be successful in securing one to accept the mount of your horse. In despair some of the lesser lights among the owners have been experiment- ses. That this is a dangerous experi- ment was demonstrated in the second race vesterday. Among the starters was the mare Chemuck, ridden by a young lad named Reeves in the employ of Sam Cooper. Shortly after the flag fell to a well- bunched start, the mare stumbled, throw- ing the boy heavily to the ground. Carried to the paddock, the announcement board stated, boy not hurt, but this proved a trifie misleading, for on a more thorough examination the boy was found to be suf- fering from a fracture of the arm, leg and collar-bone. He was later removed to the hospital. The monotony of a rather uneventful ay’s racing was somewhat relieved by an incident that will likely inangurate another sellin, ce war. After Arctic, running in the colors of Wyatt Earp, had won the fourth race, Nick Hall, owner of Sweet Alice, the second horse, bid the winner, entered to be sold for $200, up to $1000, the usual $5 retaining him for the owner. From the d of Mr. Earp’s conversation after the race the ran-up is likely to_prove a rather unprofitable investment for the owners of selling platers. There have been days when picking win- ners was a much more pleasant as well as profitable vocation. Backed down from fives the 8 to 5 Don Gara, winner of the last race, was the only post favorite to poke his nose past the wire first. In the opening event, a half-mile dash for maiden two-year-olds, George Coving- at his latest purchase, Birdie C, loose, in a gallop with 41¢to 1 against den by. the “Major.”* The 9 to 20 favorite Mermaid was second and Spry Lark third. Covington repeated his success in the first race by pulling off the second event on the card with C M C, who has been a “pipe” innumerable times. Martinet, with Gritfin up, was favorite, going to the post 7 to 5, but quit badly the last sixteenth. Had Prince Devine won, Daggie Smith would have been suddenly transformed into a capitaiist, for he backed his horse down from 200 to 3 C M C, how- ever, the second choice with 5 to 2 against him, got away in front,and was never headed, winning by a length from Blizzard, with Prince Devine third, the favorite fourth. The favorite Thornhill was badly snowed under in the mile selling race, finishing “‘absolutely.” Opening at 8 to 3 he went to the post 6 to 5. When the flag fell Carr on the favorite accepted much the worst of the start and at the first turn was nearly lost on the outside. Eddie Jones took the light weight Nebuchadnezzar out in front, leading the second choice, Mc- Light, five lengths at the half. McLight rapidly closed on him in the stretch and at the end won easily by three lengths. Ingomar, who showed none of his sulking tendenc! yesterd: was a good third. - After Sweet Alice, the 2 to 1 second choice in the fourth race, a short six-fur- long run, had set a rattling clip into the stretch, leading by a couple of lengths, Arctic came on from third place and the two indulged in a most exciting drive to the wire, Carr landing Arctic winner by a nose. The even money favorite, Commis- sion, with Griffin up, was third, but a neck ying four pounds overweight Boreas an “Indian” with the handicappers, and they put their checks down on Captain Coster, getting fours against their money. In this case figures proved correct, for the Captain took the lead at the start and was never extended, winning handily by a lengtn from Boreas, who went to the post 9 to 10. Duchess of Milpitas was a poor third. There was considerable shifting about in the odds on the last race, the second di- vision of the half-mile race for maiden two-year-olds. The El Rio Rey filly Silver Queen opened a 6 to 5 favorite, but a strong [ii\ went out on Don Gara, who was backed down favorite at post time, 3to 1 being against Silver Queen. The ‘‘good thing”’ led from start to finish, winning by balf a length from Silver Queen, who proved a filly with a good turn of speed. Gladetta gelding was a poor third. Wyatt Earp trains the winner, which in compensated him for the run-up he d in the fourthrace. And, by the v, Mr. Earp seems to be a very shifty sort of trair for very few of his ‘‘good things” go astray. MULHOLLAND. SUMMARY. 8ax Fraxcisco, April 8, 1895.

According to rumor, every youngster that started in the first race had worked half a mile in 48 seconds or better, yet it was won easily in 4914 seconds. 2 Ed Purser {inally landed ona winner; he played McLight in the mile race. The fifth race on yesterday's card was | declared off, the two-year-old event being split to meet the difficulty. The Guilla filly was virtually left at the post in the last race, Glover pulling up as the flag fell. Arctic had his usual tantrum at the post, but after a vain effort to run away with Carr the reverse way of the track, conde- scended to be led back to the post.

OLYNPC CLUB GAOUIDS They Will Be Closed in May, Much to Mcintyre’s Sorrow. Grading Soon to Commence and Then a Bulkhead WIill be Necessary. The outdoor athletes of the Olympic Club received quite a surprise a few even- | ings ago. when they learned that the | directors had concluded to dispense with the services of Peter McIntyre, who is superintendent of the outdoor grounds. McIntyre has received notification that after this month his position will be de- clared vacant. Naturally the old athlete, who has done such yeoman service for the Olympic Club during the five years he has been employed as caretaker and manager of the beautiful outdoor grounds, received quite a shock when he learned that his time for quitting his position had arrived. The reason for the discharging of Mc- Intyre is owing to a policy of retrench- ment which the club intends pursuing in the future. In speaking of the matter one of the directors said last evening that it is quite possible that the grounds will be closed after May 1, as they have been a burden on the shoulders of the club from the start, and that several thousand dol- lars have been wasted on their keeping and improvements. he directors are at_present in hot water over a notice they had recently received to the effect that grading on the Seventh- avenue side of the grounds immediately back of the 100-yard stretch will be com- menced in the near fature, which will mean that a sandbank twenty feet in height will be piled up against the wooden fence, which structure cannot, of course, withstand such enormous pressure. The directors immediately held a con- ference with J. T. Doyle, the owner of the property upon which the outdoor athletic park stands, and that gentleman advised the club to tear down the fence and con- struct a bulkhead, which would put the Olympians out of pocket to the extent of between three thousand and four thousand dollars. The directors, however, could not see their way clear in the expenditure of such a large amount of money and sug- gested to Mr. Doyle that as he was the owner of the land in question he should build with a view of protecting the club’s interest. This Doyle refused point-blank to doand tho directors concluded that their only safe policy in the premises would be to close the grounds and await the results that time and sand will bring. Should their property be damaged to any extent a lawsuit will be unavoidable, but whether the owner of the Yropeny or the city will be held responsible 1s a question that is nlow being discussed by the officers of . the club. The latter pays Doyle $210 a month rental for the grounds, the first five years’ lease of which expired on the 1st of this month, and according to the contract the club has had with Doyle the former must pay the property-owner the sum of $210 per month forthe next five years to come, it matters not whether the athletes use the grounds or not. Theclubis in a big dilemma, and the directors are at their wits’ ends about it. Mr. Doyle is well aware of the fact that the club” has been daily losing money in the maintenance of the grounds, and he has suggested as a means of decreasing its expenditure that the property be converted to a more profitable end than that of a park in which the young athletes now enjoy themselves. Amateur athletics have been very poorly patronized ever since the time of the open- ing of the grounds and notwithstanding that several very excellent field days have been given in the past five years, the club cannot recall one single instance where the rmfiu, athletically speaking, ran ahead of he expenses. A committee has been appointed to in- uire into the present value of property in the vicinity of the grounds and it will re- })01'1 at the next meeting of the directors. t is said that the land in the immediate vicinity of the grounds has decreased in value since the closing of the Midwinter Fair, which at the time of its greatest pros- perity gave property in that neighborhood quite a financial turn for the better. Visiting the South. Samuel Rainey and Chief Engineer Sullivan left town yesterday afternoon for & prolonged trip through the southprn counties of the State. They stert hence for Santa Barbara and will be absent three weeks. At the last meet- ing of the Boerd of Fire Commissioners the Chief received a month's leave of absence. Messrs. Rainey and Sullivan are accompanied by their wives. Mrs, Samnel Rainey has been indisposed for a long time and is now endeavor- ing to recuperate. A SCORING FOR DAGGETT. Charged With Conspiring and Scheming With Sam Rainey. POPPER MAKES REVELATIONS. He Criticizes Statements Made by the Superintendent of the Mint. Superintendent of the Mint Daggett has aroused a veritable tempest in the ranks of the Democracy. The gentlemen who are to lose patronage claim that all Mr. Daggett's appointments were made with the idea of getting the complimentary vote of the Democratic minority for the United States Senatorship. They also declare that the head of the Mint has Sam Rainey for his right hand man, and that his following in the Legislature consisted entirely of those whose friends or relatives held places in the Mint. This following, it was also pointed out, voted for the infamous As- sembly bill Tf}‘.’, known as the streetcar bill, and almost without exception voted against the bill allowing the San Joaquin Valley Railroad terminal facilities. “Mr. Daggett's statements are of more than ordinary interest,” said Max Popper last night. ‘‘He says that his manage- ment of the patronage of the Mint was the greatest factor in nominating and electing Governor Budd. If he has, as he claims, the power to make Governors I must admit that he was most self-sacri- ficing to take only thirteen of the thirty possible Democratic votes when he wanted complimentary recognition as a possibility for United States Senator.” Mr. Popper then told of Mr. Daggett's services from. 1857 and of his preventing attempted Republican gerrymandering in 1881 by skilHchonuol of the Democratic minority. The tale of how, when a few years later, the Senate stood 20 to 20 on the question of reducing freights and fares was also related. “Daggett was then Lieutenant-Gover- nor,” said Mr. Popper. “He had been elected on a dplntform to reduce freight charges. The deciding vote lay with him and he cast it for the railroad as against the platform of the Democratic party and the interests of the State. “It was for that and nothing else that Mr. Daggett and the recreant Senators were read out of the party. Later an at- tempt was made to bring the disrupted factions together, and to help effect this | Mr. Daggett was made a vice-chairman of the State Central Committee.” Mr. Popper says Mr. Daggett obgosed him because he was friendly with William D. English. Daggett had announced that he was tired of having such men as Eng- | lish, White and Barney Murphy at the head of the party. Mr. Popper explained that the patron- age of the Mint, had it been distributed in the interests of the Democracy, should have been distributed equally among the Democratic members of the Legislature of 1893, who had, in spite of temptation, ad- hered to the party platform. Instead of that only some of the Senators were recog- nized. “These men were holdovers,” said Mr. Popper. i United States Senator, and to each of those who were given places for friends, Mr. Daggett intimated that their vote might be useful if he were to be a candidate for | that senntorshi{n “He claims he acted wholly in the in- terests of the Democracy in his i ments. That is so, undoubtedly Daggett constitutes the whole Democra tic | party.” Mr. Pop{er, in commenting upon the fact that Mr. Daggett claimed to have practically nominated and elected Budd, called attention to the fact that when the places were given out Budd had not been dreamed of as a possibility. He also pointed out that Senator Arms, who had resigned his place as warrant clerk at the Mint to go to the Legislature, had upon the adjournment of that body renewed his old duties. Senator Arms voted for Mr. Dag- gett and for the streetcar bill and against “They had a voice in naming a | the bill granting the San Joaquin Valley road terminal facilities. In these things Mr. Popper could see no elements of strength for Governor Budd, who was electeg on an anti-Southern Pacific platform. “You might say, too,” M. Popper con- cluded, ‘“‘that if the truth were known Mr. Daggett and Sam Rainey would be found to be political partners. ~ Mr. Daggett could not handle the newly elected members of | the House very well personally, so Mr. Rainey did that for him. it is noticeable that many of the Mint employes owe their places to the pull exerted by Mr. Rainey after some of the Assemblymen had ‘promised to do the right thing.’ | "Amonfi the men now at work who have to thank Rainey for their places are Aleck Greggains, the ex-prize-fighter, George Ryan of the Forty-tourth district who was let out of the Fire Department, Charles McCourtney of the Twenty-second district and Nathan Seligman. “These men may have been appointed to_elect Budd. They may have been ap- pointed to strengthen the Democratic party, but when Mr. Daggett says so his | statement i¢ in line with his action in fail- | ing to keep party pledges.”’ YOUNG. DUTCHY FURIOLS He Throws Down the Gaunt- | let to Senator Earl of Alameda. Prize-Fighting Compared to Sen- atorship to the Detriment of the Latter. Fred Hansted, or “Young Dutchy,” as | he is generally called, is fairly furious over Senator Earl’s denial that Hansted was his appointee as sergeant-at-arms of the Senate Committee on Education and Pub- lic Morals. Hansted makes no denial of his lobby work; but declares generally that he has | done work for the alleged ‘‘combine” for | which he has not been pai In addition he hints at possible revelations as to the manner in which certain bills were either stopped or passed and in which more than one pretty woman is supposed to have | been prime factor. In talking over the | matter last night Hansted could hardly | control his wrath. Against all the Sen- ators implicated in either the pilot, chari- ties or scalpers’ bills, Hansted is arrayed | in battle form. He swears vengeance and | declares that he is in the fight alone for | what is legitimately due him. | When asked to deny | statements, he said: | “It is true that I have been a prize- fighter in years gkone by, and that profes- | sion_is, think, no’ disgrace to me, |as it is far better for me to | get into a 24-foot ring to do battle for my | dollar than to have people of my county | send me to Sacramento, and, whether I vote | aye or no, there is always an envelgge ut | on the table with several $100 or $500 bills. | Iwould like to know which of the two | ought to be the proudest, a prize-fizhter | or a State boodler. |~ “In reply to Senator Earl from Alameda | I will say this, that I did not know that I | Senate so informed me. n | the Senator should kick at being chaffed | on account of the fact that he had a prize fighter for sergeant-at-arms. He could not ngk his minister to be sergeant-at-arms of | the Committee on Education and Public Morals because of the work to be done, and I think that the Senator and myself were | both well adapted to the positions we held. “‘Senator Earl showed bad taste in expos- ing his hand without a pair of deuces. In the first place, he says he did not appoint me. If he did not appoint me I stole over $200 from the State. Why then am I not roséeuted? If he did appoint me why oes he try and throw the burden on the shoulders of Senator Hart, who is a thor- ough gentleman? It is not at all likely that Senator Hart would ask Earl for an appointment to the latter’scommittee, and 1780 ot think he ever did. That I was | Senator Earl’s sergeant-at-arms is a fact | of which the Senator should be proud, for | without me he would have fallen disas- trously by the legislative wayside. “I am in this boodle fight to stay, and no combination or clique of boodle Senators can scare me out.”” e oy e S0 ‘ The three most common names in Eng- land, Scotland and Ireland, respectively, are Smith, McDonald and Murphy.

McPHERSON SUCCEEDS HIM, An Investigation of Some Things at the Hospltal Prom- ised. The Board of Health held a special meeting yesterday morning, the only pur- pose of which was to oust Edwin L. Parra- more, resident physician of the Alms- house. For along time complaints have bee; made to the board that Dr. Parramore wa neglecting his duties, and was careless and incompetent for the important position he held. It was intimated atthe last meeting of the Board of Health thatsome summary action was to be expected at that time, but the meeting adjourned without a word being spoken in the matter. Yesterday morning the board came to- gether under a special call, Mayor Sutro being called from his office to preside with- out previous notice. Dr. Mays stated the case—that the re- moval of Dr. Parramore was deemed ad- visable, as he proven himself careless and incompetent; that charges had been made against him on these grounds. The Mayor called for more specific de- tails, but for answer Dr. Bucknall repeated the speech with no additions. “Has he been intemperate?”’ asked the Mayor. 4 ““Well, yes, there is something of that kind,” said Dr. Mays. The motion to declare the place vacant and then another that Dr. George McPher- son be appointed fo the vacancy both car- ried without comment. Superintendent Weaver has been com- plaining of Dr. Parramore for a long time, as stated. He says that the physician fre- quently leaves the place for days at a time, his patients being wholly without medical care in the meantime. “Weaver tells me,” said a member of the board yesterday, ‘‘that Parramore was away from the Almshouse for three days at a stretch recently, leaving several cases | of sickness that should have had his con- stant attention. On the fourth day of his absence he walked into the office with the air of 2 man on guard and remarked to the superintendent : g *“Well, I've done one good thing, any- | how. I gaveold Mr. — a dose of some- that seemed to bring him round. at is very remarkable,” was Weaver's repliy. “inasmuch as that man has been | dead for three days.” It was this sort of evidence that seems to have brought the board to the point of making the change. Dr. McPherson, who was elected to the lace, is a considerably older man than Dr. arramore. He was physician in charge at the Sutro tunnel and works adjacent to the back of its building and the Mayor, although apparently unaware that his name was to ge presented, spoke highly of him. The change is to date from the 10th inst., although Dr. Parramore receives hissalary for the month. Members of the board say that the next thing in this line will be an inguiry into charges greferred to the effect that Dr. Titus of the City and County Hospital has been consenting to lon periods of absence on the part of some o the nurses there while still allowing them to draw salary for continual service at the hospital. The specific instances mentioned are those of Mrs. Watterman and Mrs. Rohié\son. Their pay is $10 a month *‘and found.” | thin By the terms of the will of one Dr. Wilde of St. Ives parish, Huntingdonshire, Eng- land, his trustees were directed to expend £50 in the purchase of a piece of land in St. Ives, the annual rent of which wes to be set aside for the purchase or six Bibles at a cost of 7 shillings each. To decide who shall have them he requested his trustees to “prepare a saucer with three dice upon the altar table of the parish church, and let the Bibles be raffled for.” THREE GREAT GOMPANIONS NEW TO-DAV. CELERY The valuable medicinal properties of this substance were first discovered by the em- inent scientists, Homolle and Joret, in 1849, They recognized in this agent an excellent substitute for quinine in all eases of mala- ria. They also found celery an exception- ally valuable remedy for the disease now commonly called La Grippe and for all Nervous Troubles. The entire medical profession at once turned their attention to the wonderful results attained by the proper use of this article, and to-day it is prescribed freely by the highest authori- ties as an agent to overcome sleeplessness, loss of appetite, headache, and the many other evils attendant on an overwrought nervous system. Celery appeals directly to the nerves, and when taken properly is almost immediate in its wonderful sooth- ing effects. An hitherto unknown calm comes to the sufferer, and in place of the jar and clash of unstrung nerves, he is given at least an interval of quiet happi- ness. With his mental faculties thus at rest, he is able to intelligently study him- self, and investigate the causes that have made these thonsand minute wires running through his organization vibrate so harshly and constantly. Celery stimulates and quiets the nerves, and in company with beef and iron, is the greatest and most per- manent consoler the nerves have ever known. BEEF By a careful method of chemical extrac- tion, our tonic contains only the vital ele- mentg.of prime. lean beef, and in this in- gredient alone even a single dose possesses the highest nutritive quality. It is not what a person eats, but what is digested that benefits the systems. The beefin Cel- ery, Beef and Iron ispredigested, and even the most delicate stomach can accept it, and be entirely relieved of all work inci- dent to digestion. At the same time the work of strengthening and building up progresses, until by easy stages the stom- ach is finally put into a condition to act for itself in a nataral and healthy manner. Beef is the bulwark of a sound constitu- same substantial nutritive qualities. In Celery, Beef and Fron these qualities are extracted, and offered in such doses as will at once attack the wasted forces, and lead the sufferer safely and surely to recovery. tion, and no food wsed incorporates the | IRON Nature provides that we shall take a cer- tain small proportion of iron in vegetables and other varieties of food, in order to stimulate and keep the blood in a healthy condition. It frequently occurs, that an affection of the nervous system, a delicate stomach or a waste of some vital force makes it impossible for the system to take up this grent requisite to health and vigor. It then becomes necessary to resort to other methods,and the physician isobliged to pre- scribe iron continually to his patients. The medical profession claims, however, that it is almost impossible to secure a dose that will prove equally efficient and assimilable.
