With bly a few exceptions the usual Satur- day battalion assembled to do battle for the God of Mammon, The few absentees were possibly temporarily embarrassed financially, but on the turf such obstacles are expected to be met with. A number of new faces were noted among the crowd in the betting ring, anxious perhaps to try their hand at the seductive game, before the legislative crusade being waged against the turf in the East might be wafted west of the Rockies, and the opportunity would be gone. The usual pumber of intricate curves and inshoots were thrust upon the talent, and they were successful in solving but two of them, Eventide at 9 to 5 and Lordal at even money. The other favorites met with disaster. The mile and a quarter handicap was the feature of the card, and it gave that splen- did racehorse Lovdal another opportunity of demonstrating what a really high-class performer he is. Picking up top weight, 120 pounds, he made his own running, and won as he pleased, covering the distance in 2:1 piloted by Johnny Weber. Roma, with 15 to 1 against her, was second, and Gilead a poor third. McLight, backed down to second choice, seemed at sea in the heavy going. A milé selling race, first on the card, afforded the first opportunity of downin, a favorite.

The seven-furlong race was a “pipe” for the 2 to 5 favorite Rear Guard, but McFar- lane, with 7 to 1 against him, ridden by Eddie Jones, went out in front and the favorite was never able to overhaul him being beaten_a couple of lengths. Del Norte was a distant third. The maiden two-year-old dash, at four and a half furlongs, narrowed down to a duei between the 9 to 5 favorite Eventide and Rejected the third choice at 834 to 1. In a hot arive down the stretch the favor- ite gained the verdict by a long nose. Irene E finished a fair third. The second choice Elsie ran disappointingly. The steeplechase was a very pretty race, being entirely free from falls or accidents of any description. Longwell, the Lark and April carried the bulk of the public’s @ money, The Lark finally closing a 11 to 5 choice. Longwell was backed from 8 to 8l to 1. After Lonnie B had led over the first two jumps, North, with 6 to 1 against him, went to the front and was never headed, winning by two lengths from April, with The Lark third. Gold Bug dumped the talent hard in the last race,a five-furlong spin, after bein, sent to the posta 2to 1favorite. Mante! was a heavily backed second choice, and Alaric and Hymn also carried some good commissions. _Taking the lead soon_after the field was dls(fxtched, Hymn sailed out in the lead and defeated his field in a canter. Alaric was second, three lengths ahead of Man- tell. MULHOLLAND. SUMMARY. BAN FraNcisco, May 4, 1895. 8"4 FIRST RACE—One mile; selling; three- D%, year-olds and upward; purse $300. Ind.

The Assoclation Trophy Goes This Year to San Diego, After a Tie 5 With San Francisco. The Fay diamond medal contest was the event of the second day of the California State Sportsmen’s Association tournament at Oakland track yesterday. This prize was captured by M. Chick of San Diego, who tied Robinson, the holder of the medal last season, on nineteen birdsina twenty bird-match. In shooting off the tie with five birds Robinson missed his second pigeon—a swift “‘incomer’—giving Chick the medal on five straight hits. Chick has already held the Fay medal for three seasons and lost it to Robinson last year. McMurchy, who made an exceptional record on the previous day, did not ‘enter the medal contest, not being eligible by reason of non-residence. In several other watches, however, he shot up to his usual form. Fay, who has done good shooting in the past, made a poor showing yester- day, withdrawing in several matches after successive misses. His trigger finger seems to have lost its cunning, but his zest for the sport is as keen as ever. Young Richards of Stock- ton did some excellent work, and expe- rienced trap-shooters look upon him as a coming wonder. The best score of the day was made by Fendner, who killed twelve straight birds without using his second | barrel. Before going into the medal shoot, a ten-bird match was arranged with an entrance fee of $5, for which there were eighteen entries. Robinson, Slade, Chick, Fendner and McMurchy tied on ten birds each and divided first money.

A DANCE AT THE CLUBHOUSE. All Arrangements Completed for the Regatta of the San Franciscos. With music, wine and dance the San Francisco Yacht Club hailed the dawn of the season at their clubhouse yesterday. Had the day been fair a most glorious gath- | ering would have been found in the house in the shadow of the hill. But as it was the drizzling rain could not entirely shut out the gentler sex,and Professor Blan- chard’s music was played to no idle accom- paniment. In front of the clubhouse placidly riding at anchor in the adornment of flags and day, and as the track was in fine condition Sooa racing was the order. OLD PEOPLE'S HOME. Business Transacted at the Annual Meeting of the Managers and Trustees. Yesterday was the twenty-first anniver- sary of the organization of the Old People’s Home, and the annual meeting of the Board of Managers and Trustees was held at the home on Pine and Pierce streets for the purpose of electing officers for both boards for the ensuing year. As aquorum Wwas not present to elect, the members of the old boards retain office. Mrs. Charles Nelson, who has retained the presidency of the Board of Lady Mana- agers for the past twenty-one years, re- signed. . V. 8. Gibbs, vice-president of the home, rendered a touching tribute to the retiring president, Mrs. Nelson, in an elmiluent address, Thanks were expressed to Mr. Charles F. Hanlon and Dr. A. P. Woodward for professional services freely given during the pastvear. Resolutions of appreciation of the work performed by Mrs. Charles Nelson were read and adopted, as were also the n:gorts of the committees.

The Blue Label Will Be an Im- portant Factor In the Cigar Business. The first State convention of the Union Cigar-makers of California opened for busi- | ness in the assembly-room of Union 228, under Metropolitan Temple, yesterday afternoon. The following-named were present as delegates: P. G. Zimmerman, E. C. Chim- son, San Jose; T. G. Burns, M. L. Gable, W. E. Kelley, Fred Westcott, Francis Schmidt, P. Fanchaber, William Rechker, San Francisco; O. A. Smith, J. W. Wuel- zer, Oakland; H. Clemens, Sacramento; —— THE YAOHTS IN HOLIDAY APPAREL, bunting were the yachts Chispa, Romona, White Wing, Frolic, Catherine, Sultana, Ripple, Annie,Gracie, Aggie, Rover, and in the distance loomed up the stately Lurline and the handsome Lilly L. Great interest was centered in the Satel- lite, Dr. V. P. Buckley’s new launch, which was launched in the early part of the week. The trim little craft was an- chored between the clubhouse and the depot, and a number of excursion parties went off to her during the afternoon. Everybody who looked at the Satellite pro- nounced ber the swiftest launch on the bay. A few of George Knight's friends mur- mured ‘“wait awhile and we'll show you something that will surprise you.” The result of the miurmur was the laying of a number of private bets on the merits of the two launches. ‘When Attorney Knight started to build his launch hLe bad only one idea in view and that was to beat anything that Dr. Buckley put in the water. When the learned barrister came to look upon the doctor’s boat he said, ‘“Well, she’s a good one; she ought to beat anything in the bay in smooth weather, but T think I am going to have a craft that will knock her out in rough water.” *‘Colonel Knight means well,” said Dr. Buckley yester?isy, “but he has'nt any- thing that he will ever enter in arace against the Satellite.”” Without a doubt before the season is over there will be one of the greatest launch races ever known on the bay. _When night closed in one of the pret- tiest marine sights ever seen was presented in front of the San Francisco clubhouse. Yachts came dancing over the troubled waters from all parts of the bay, and their anchor-lights contrasted vrettily with the brilliant illuminations of the c]u{house. In the big assembly-room at the latter place tables had been spread and the yachtsmen sat down to a feast of clam chowder, beans and coffee. ‘While the amateur sailors were regaling themselves with the steaming brews the craft were riding up to a safe anchorage. Launches were gliding up to the landing steps, small boats were dashing to and fro, lights were flashing across tie bay, and from above came the sweet strains of the orchestra, to which after a while merry feet beat time, and it was late in the night when the music ceased and the yachtsmen repaired to their craft to repair for the struggle of to-day. The regatta of to-day promises to be one of the greatest events in aquatic circles which has been witnessed on the bay in many years. LOWELL HIGH SCHOOL.

A number of well-known citizens in Mill Valley, Marin County, among whom are Lovell White, Joseph G. Eastland, M. M. O’Shaughnessy, A. A. Martin and others, organized an athletic association, to be known as the ““Mill Valley Country Club.” A large tract of level land near Mill Val- ley, known as the old homestead property, has been leased from the Tamalpais Land and Water Company, and the building of a commodious clubhouse will shortly be commenced. The home of the club will be provided with the usual athletic apparatus and a tank and other facilities for salt-water bathing. M. M. O’Shaughnessy, who sur- veyed and laid out the grounds of the Mid- winter Fair, is an enthusiastic member of the organization and one of its founders. ‘When seen at his home in Mill Valley yesterday Mr. O’Shaughnessy stated that the club now consisted of about sixty members, most of whom are prominent business men of this City. The club originated, said Mr. 0’Shaughn- esy, among a number of the young men in Mill Valley, who called a meeting to con- sider the best course to bring the project before the public, W. K. l?rigg!, C. A. Wainwright, Rich- ard Jones, Mr. Terry and myself formally m:fgamzed the club on the 7th inst. at the office of the Tamalpais Company in Mill Valley. Mr. Lovell White, the cashier of the San Francisco Savings Union, who is a sreat baseball enthusiast, was present and was tendered the presidency of the as- sociation, which he accepted. The other officers are A. A. Martin, vice- president; Louis L. James, secretary; C. A. Wainwright, treasurer, and Ernest Claxton, captain. A. A. Martin, well known among sport- ing circles in this City, has been indefatiga- ble in his efforts to place the club upon a solid foundation. He has spent considera- ble time working for the welfare of the club and has thus far secured by donations from sporting emporinms complete cricket; ba:abn 1, tennis, football and trap-shooting outfits. Prominent people have expressed their desire to dunate various sums to the club and the prospects of Mill Valley having one of l_g:e finest country clubs in the State are very bright. 2 The colors of the club are blue and white and the emblem a crescent surrounding a star. The grounds are to be laid out for golf, cricket, tennis, foot and base ball. trap- shooting and all outdoor recreations. The people of Marin County are very en- thusiastic over the project and the success of the club is assured. 5 The North Pacitic Railroad Company is expected to subscribe quite a large sum, and this with other numerous subscrip- tions will go far to place the club upon a solid financial basis.

Van Guelpen, representing the | union in San Jose. E. C. Chimson of San Jose was elected temporary chairman and J. W. Wuelzer of Oakland temporary secretary. The fol- lowing committees were appointed: On permanent organization—H. Clem- ens, 0. A. Swith, P. G. Zimmerman, W. E. Kelley, T. F. Burns; on resolutions— George W. Van Guelpen, William Rech- ker, Francis Schmidt. After the committees had been ap- vointed the convention adjourned for one hour. The recess was devoted to arrang- ing the future work of the convention in such a manner as to make all things run smoothly for the remainder of the session. The committee on permanent organiza- tion submitted a report, which was adopted, providing for certain permanent officers and the adoption of a constitution and by-laws. When it came to the point of electing permanent officers Mr. Gable asked: ‘“Where shall be the headquarters of the organization, and is it necessary that the president and secretary be chosen from the city or town where the headquarters are located 2" The question created a lively debate that lasted nearly an hour, The matter was finally settled by a unanimous agreement that the headquarters shall be wherever the president is located. Permanent officers were then elected as follows: T. F.Burns of San Francisco, president; H. Ciemens of Sacramento, vice-president; P.G. Zimmerman of San Jose, secretary; George W. Van Guelpen, representing San Diego, treasurer, and O. A, Smith of Oakland, sergeant-at-arms. Atter considerable discussion as to the further work of the committee on perma- nent organization it was decided that the commirttee proceed to perfect a constitu- tion, and that its report be submitted to- morrow morning when the convention re- convenes. It has not yet been fully decided what shall be the name of the organization, but most of the members of the convention are in favor of calling it “‘The California Blue Label League,” which name is de- rived from the protective label now in use by the San Francisco Cigar-makers’ Union. The convention will meet again to-mor- row morning at 8:30 o’clock. THEIR NEW UNIFORMS. The New Colors and the Emblem to Be Worn by the Camera Club Cyclers.

The choice finally lay among sweaters of tan, dark blue or white, and white was finally adopted because it would go with aqy complexion. With the white sweater will be worn a dark-blue cap and black stockings, the gentlemen to wear bicyeling trousers to the knee, and the ladies to wear either the latest style in bloomers or a short walking skirt. The inclination of the ladies leans more to the bloomers, however. The emblem adopted is a golden sun- burst, in the middle of which is a letter C.

The track athletes of the Oakland Young Men’s Christian Association, under the su- pervision of Mr. Roblee, their physical dl_- rector, held a few field events on the uni- versity cinder path yesterday afternoon.

The first in the order of events was a 100- yard dash, run in two heats. W. C. West won first place in the first heat, and Cheek second place; time, 11 seconds flat. In the second heat Boek took first place, with a four yards and half handicap, and G. Hoist took second place, from scratch; time made, 11 4-5 seconds.

EDWARD s ‘}\\\' o el \ \\ \ \ \ \ 1f one would ask the nelghbors of 205 O'Farrell street who I8 the jolly, big-hearted painter living at that number, the answer would be: He is Mr. Ed- ward N, Peterson, whom the children call “Ed” for short, for although he weighs 240 pounds and is said to be one of San Francisco’s most foremost painters, the little children love to romp with the | big fat man because they like him—because he is | honest and truthful with them. Many are the tales afloat of Mr. Peterson’s quiet charities and sincere generousness, but the best of men are liable to\all sick, and it was the misfor- tune of Mr. Peterson to be sick. His friends are now congratulating him, and he is congratnlating the Hudson Medical Institute. Here is his con- gratulatory letter: i “SAN FRANCISCO, January 12, 1895. | , ‘In view of the fact that what I write'may be of | extreme value to some fellow-siferer, such as [ myself was four months ago, before epplying to the competent physicians of the Hudson Medical Institute, I wish to state iy case in brief: “I have been for years a sufferer from nervous | prostration, complicated with a chronic ipflamma- tion of the neck of the bladder, which made my life one of misery. I tried one physician after another, and one remedy upon aznother, but could find no benefit whatever from any of them. “Four months ago, having heard of the good work being done by the physicians of the Hudson Medical Institute, I consuited them and was toid that I could be cured. I was satisfied that from the examination given me and the information jaunty cap of dark blue. Itis the emblem of the Camera Club’s cycling annex and will be worn on al! occasions by those whose fealty is divided between the tripod and the two wheels. At a recent meeting of the Camera Club cyclists the enthusiasts discussed long and earnestly the various merits and demerits of uniforms for the organization. There had to be a sweater, every one agreed to that, but the question of color was one which was of particular interest to the ladies of the club, and they took that given to me in reference to my case they thoroughly understood it, and immediately placed myself in their hands.' I have been treating oniy four months and can safely say that 1 am entirely well. 1 am satisfled that they will effect & permanent curein_a very short time, for I am feeling better every day as I goon with the treatment. I feel stouter, sieep better, am free of all distressing feel- ings caused from my debilitated nervous condition as well as the distress occasioned by the inflamma- tion of the bladder. “ most cheerfully recommend the physicians ot the Hudson Medical Institute (o any suffering as T have. Wil gladly answerany communication addressed to me from any one suffering from Chronic nervons diso; dits complications.” e 8 dIBOTCVATD . PETERSON, 205 O’'Farrell street. NEW TO-DAY. N.
