s g THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, MAY 21, 1895. THE BAY DISTRICT RACES, Tar and Tartar Downs Morven g in an Exciting Nose-and- g Nose Finish. TIM NURPHY IS BEATEN. _Royal Flush Not Equal to a Brulsing Finish, and Succumbed to Red Glenn. While owne? by W. O'B. Macdonough but ;wo mares were bred to Sinfax, the stockily suilt Verague b. :g one of the get. Nick Hall cashed a good bunch of tickets sver the win of Tar and Tartar, but dumped a 200d sized portion of his winnings back into -he books by Tin. Murphy's defeat. Ed. Purser backed his horse Red Glenn aeavily around the ring, and it was fortunate hat the flag 1=11 to a straggling start, for with A better seniuuil Del Norte would have landed :he money. * Among the string that will shortly sport By Holly’s Glenn colors will be Melanie, Florence Montana out of fusilade’s Lest, and possibly El Rayo, who it s thought will agein stand training. The clever light-weight rider, Charley Weber, ans returned to California, having asked for sis release from the Santa Anita stable, and ‘ode his first race on Spry Lark in the two.year 51 event. He was unfortunate in getting yway last of the bunch, but finished a good fourth. ‘Walt Vivell, a very capable trainer, formerly n the employ of A. B. Spreckels, arrived from Chicago last evening. With him came F. Jack- on, a light-weight jockey who has been riding At Roby with more than ordinary success, and s said to be as honest as he is clever in the saddle. | There is very little disposition among the Sastern horsemen sojourning here to shake the florious dustof California from their feet, in Hew of the present unsettled condition of rac- Ing affairs in the East. Arthur White, of White & Clarke, says he is well satisfied to remain liere, and many others who contemplated rossing the mountains will undoubtedly linger & while long . The week’s racing was ushered in with a select but rather light racing card, the combined number of starters in the last hree events numbering but thirteen. Speculators bad a fairly successful day of '] it, the racing being free from any startling ! weversals of form or muscular exhibitions 5f jockeyship. Three first choices, a sec- >nd choicer and one outsider were success- ul in pulling down purses. One of the severest jars the talent re- ived during the day occurred in the urth race, a short six-furlong sprint. ‘WVith but three to oppose him the old roan sprinter, Tim Murphy, was a warm 1to 2 ‘avorite, although later in the betting 3 to » was obtainable. Arnette was second * :hoice, with Mantetl, the third horse, in lemand. Tim was visibly not himself, for Arnette ed him the entire distance and won easily )y two lengths. So badly did Tim tire the | “ast fifty yards that Mantell, under persua- sion, nipped the place from him by a send. The opening race, a cheap selling event, Lyver the short six-furlong course, was taken v the 8 to 5 favorite Rose Clark, with Hinrichs up, who led all the way. Lin- sille, the third choice, was a good second. and Olivia third. The kindergarten race was the source of nuch guesswork. Spry Lark. Instigator, veragua, Walter J and Cardwell all re- seived substantial backing, the first-named inally closing favorite at 17 to 5. Away second when the fiag fell, Veragua, *idden” by Shaw, took the lead and held it shroughout, winning handily from Card- well by three parts of a length. Walter J, the second-choice, wound u]p in third place. '} The ‘thira race, a six-furlong gallop over the scenic route, up and dewn hill, fur- hished the prettiest finish of the day. k all’s Tar and Tartar was again fa te, 18 to 5 being the ruling price. Miss Ruth, &ith twos about her, was second choice, {rith Morven third call in the betting at f to 2. When the flag fell Hinrichs was firstaway and leading the entire distance he looked » “moral” when he struck the flat stretch Lo the wire. Sioane working hard on the ! favorite managed to draw np nearly on j2ven terms with the leader, and the two ndulged in the hottest kind of a drive to ' ‘he wire. The last jump Tar and Tartar nanaged to poke his head in front and d the verdict. Miss Ruth finished {* The last race, a mile {>nded in a rather close fin! {"ng in the betting at even money, Royal {/Flush went back to 7 to 5, at which figure Red Glenn also closed, backed down from t0 1. Del Norte with Paget up had many finends at 6 to 1. & The race was marred bya r sendoff, {iDel Norte and Roma getting much the | Wworst of the breakaway. Weber szailed out i'n front with Royal Flush, followed by ‘Red Glenn, und this was the order until a “uriong from home, when Red Glenn had | Royal Flush in difficulties. Despite Web- i 2r's hard nding on the *‘dickey-legeed” Hon of Three Cheers, Red Glenn beat him | but very handily by along neck. Roma | was third. Del Norte came like a flash on the outside at the finish, and many thought | he had won. MULHOLLAND. H SUMMARY. g affair, also After open- BaN Fraxcisco, May 20, 1895.

Leale From the San Quentin School Children. Captain W. G. Leale of the steamer Car- oline was treated to a genuine surprise yes- terday morning. The Caroline plies be- tween San Francisco and San Quentin and no man is better known or more popular on the water front than her owner, Captain Leale. About two weeks ago he gave an excursion to the children of the San Quen- tin district school, and yesterday the little ones presented him with a substantial token of their gratitude. Shortly after the Caroline docked at San Quentin the captain was asked to go uH to the school. The giggling of the childr and evidence of suppressed excitement told him that something was up, but he was guite nngrepared or the little scene which followed. Miss Jennie Powers, the teacher, on be- half of the pupils, presented the doughty na vigator with a handsome gold locket. In the center was a tiny compass set in a ship’s wheel, and on the reverse side was an appropriate inscription, and accompany- ing the gift was a memorial to which were attached the names of the scholars. The signers were Johnnie, Annie, Mamie, Gertie and Katie King, Leonard, Stella and Lizzie O'Connor, Adolph Klase, Eugene Sullivan, Claude Haskins, Arnold Hunt, Ella Mann, Ellen Keily and Fred and Bruce Jamieson. Captain Leale tried to respond in his usual happy strain, but failed to do him- self justice for once, and compromised on a promise to take the children on another excursion. FIELD OF SPORT. Olympic Swimming Tournament—Busi- ness House Wheel- men. The swimming tournament of the Olympic Club will be held this evening, and the ones who will be early on hand so as to procure good seats can expect to wit- ness first-class sport. On Bunday, the 26th inst., the wheelmen of the business houses will hold a relay race over the San Leandro course, starting at 10 A. ». sharp. The following are the houses and the wheelmen who will repre- sent them: The Neustadter Bros.’ team will be composed of J. H. Ballin, M. Bal- lin, F. Webster, F. Hoeg and A. Mahoney. Levi Strauss & Co. team—H. Fischer, J Waterman, G. James, A. Mains and J. F. Cunningham. Tillman, Bendel & Co.’s team—H. Mar- tens, A. Holling, E. Haller, W. van der Leith, Herman Bendel Jr. Dunham, Carrigan & Co.’s team—H. F. Coffin, J. 8.. Egan, W. A. Scott, J. R. Knight and W. A. Landry. Redington & Co.’s team is not completed yet. The race promises to be the most exciting thing on earth and there can be no such thing as doubting that all world's records will be knocked into smithereens on this great business wheeling occasion. AN HEIR 1N HARD LUCK. Worth Sixty Thousand Dollars and Tapping Beer Barrels. How the Horse Shoe Club Holds High Revel on Washington- Street Wharf. The Horseshoe Club was out in force on ‘Washington-street wharf yesterday morn- ing soon after the arrival of the Stockton steamer. Each memoer of the club carries acanand a horseshoe. The latteris for the purpose of opening the patented bungs on beer barrels and the cans are to hold the drainings of the keg, with which the club holds high jinks on the wharf. Yesterday morning there was a full as- semblage of the club with all kinds of horseshoes and nearly every variety of cans. Special Officer Hayes was kept busy dispersing the crowd, though he said it went against his heart to do so. “The hop water is meat and drink to some of the poor devils,” said the officer, “‘but they remove the iron bungsand the boys throw them overboard. Then the brewery men kick.”” ‘While the special was talking a man of abont 35 years of age, poorly clad, with several weeks’ growth of struggling beard on his pinched and drawn face, came sidling up to the kegs. “‘There’s one of them,” said Hayes. “Only a year ago that unfortn:mte lcl{ow was a sprightly young teamster, and on Sundays he was a howling swell, and look at him now—a broken-down wreck, a beer- tapper. T'll call him over and you can talk to him.”’ In response to a call from the officer the walking wreck shaped his course so that the full glare of his olfactory beacon shone on the officer, and the next moment he dropped anchor alongside of Hayes. The latter questicned him and drew out his history. His name, he said, was Thomas Edward Brady, and he was heir to an estate in Ireland worth $60,000. *Why don’t you go home and get it?” queried Hayes. “Think I'm a fool?”’ retorted Thomas Edward. “Do you think I'm going to give them Jews half the money to get it? Not much. They know me. They've got my photograph and they know I'm the right man. A lawyer dug me ufi some months ago and he takes me to the English Con- sul. Not this English Consul, but the one what went out. He gives me a $100 and my passage to the old country. T started for home and got as far as the Oak- land mole, when I meets a hobe. Well, T ain’t too proud to talk to any one, even if 1 have got money, so I teils this hobo what I was doin’. “You look out for them fellers,’ he says to me; ‘they’re pretty fly. Don’t you sign no papers.’ *“Well, I took his advice, and when the lawyer came to the train with a big roll of apers for me tosign I says, ‘Here, this 2 Hindoo-Erambaletta.

BOMRD OF SUPERVISORS, The Majority Puts Through the Bituminous-Rock Job. HOPE TO AVOID THE VETO. But It Won’t Work—A New Water Resolution Sprung on the Minority. The Supervisors yesterday—that is, the majority of them—smiled and smiled, and put through the bituminous rock job as serenely as though they believed it was a public service they were doing. It wasa wonderful thing to look at. After seeing which one can better understand how the criminal in the dock oaught red- handed can yet look the court calmly in the face and say he didn’t do it. Supervisor Hirsch deserted the crowd for reasons which he gave to the Cauw last night. “The resolution establishes a monopoly. Iam convinced of that now, and I shall not use the the power and privileges in- trusted to me by the people to foist a mo- nopoly upon them for which they are liable to pay dearly. I am and always shall be opposed to granting special privi- leges and monopolies. That is why I voted no. The other members of the board, Di- mond, Hobbs, Spreckels and Taylor, who have hitherto stood manfully for justice and fair dealing on behaif of the City, were, of course, against 1t. What was before an “‘order” came up late in the session yester- day on the file of new business as a™‘reso- lution,” purporting to embody the recom- mendations of the BSuperintendedt of Streets, as to the method and material with which streets, proposed to be laid with bituminous rock, should be built in future. x These specifications have already been printed and commented upon. ‘When the clerk read the resolutions em- bodying these specifications to govern the future street contractor, Hughes moved the adoption. Supervisor Taylor, in the chair, wanted to know if it was the intention to move to adopt or to pass to prifit. Wagner arose and seconded the motion ““to adopt,”” as he understood it. Hughes agreed that that was what he meant. Hobbs moyed as an amendment that if it be fi“sed to print as important matter of the kind it should go through the regular form. Hughes looked pleased, and said that this resolution had eliminated all the ob- jections upon which the Mayor had vetoed the late order. It was recommended by the Street Superintendent, who, he said, was a capable man, and no one had ever questioncd his honesty, etc. This Su- erintendent of Streets had asked the upervisors w“(mss such a resolution. He wanted the rock to come to this City in its natural state, so that he could see what he was getting. It had been alleged that it could not be so shipped by water, because it would have to be mined “out of the boats upon its arrival here. 1If it wasshipped by rail it had to be mined off the cars, so what was the difference ? The objection offered to the late order was that it provided that the bituminous rock must contain no sand or gravel. These specifications said it must contain no “‘coarse’ sand or gravel. He thought this difference was all that was to be de- It had come with recommenda- tion of the street committee also. Mr. Spreckels, chairman of that com- mittee, took exception. “Not asa whole,” he said, “I, for one, of that committee, am opposed to it.” Hirsch wanted to know if the specifica- tions limited the supply of rock to any certain person or persons. Hughes said there were a number of con- tractors who could supply the rock desired. Mr. Spreckels said the statement was misleading, as it was not the fact. Hobbs said that if Mr. Hughes was so certain that this resolution was so entirely innocent and withou: fault it was hard to understand whyv he opposed its going to print. The delay of one week which that entailed could harm no one. The fact was, he said, that these specifications were pos- itively identical with the order recently vetoed by the Mayor. He hasseen the two Erinted side by side in the San Francisco CALL and the only difference was a few words that scarcely affected the meaning. Hughes replied that as Mr. Hobbs had seen the specifications in print he could not see why he (Hobbs) wanted furtner delay. He must know what it meant, and if he was opposed to it why not vote it down right now ? “I want this thing to go through the mill as an order,’” said Hobbs. “You are right. I do know what it means, but I know we have not enough votes to vote it down.” At this the “other side’’ smiled know- inf,ly and insisted on the question. The roll was called on Hobbs’ motion and it was defeated—King, Scully, Benjamin, Hughes, Dunker, Morgenstern and Wag- ner voting no, and_Hirsch, Dimond, Tay- lor, Spreckels and Hobbs voting ave. Then the motion to adopt the resolution was carried by the same vote reversed. The purpose of carrying the matter through in the form of a resolution was to avoid the necessity of submitting it to the Mayor for his signature, as they hold that a resolution differs from an ordinance in this respect and cannot be vetoed. Yesterday’s session was full of surprises, although this action in the bituminous rock matter was scarcely a surprise, as it was well known what was to be done. As the clerk ceased reading the minutes Morgenstern, chairman of the Water Com- mittee, who confessedly moved at the previous meeting for the adoption of the water-rate resolution, presented the fol- lowing: Resolved, That the minutes of the meeting of this board held on May 13, 1895, be corrected by inserting that the resolution’ fixing water rates for the year commencing July 1,1893, was passed for printing in lieu ‘of 'being adopted, as appears in said minutes, the inten- tion of this board being that the resolution so passed should be printed for public informa- tion before final action was taken thereon, and when so amended the minutes of said meeting be and are hereby approved. ALFRED MORGENSTERN. Taylor objected. He said that the records were correct, no matter what the *‘intention’’ of the board might have been. The minutes were expected to tell what actually took place at these meetings—they were not expected to guess at the inten- tion of the members.” The chairman of the committee had moved to adopt and_he (Taylor) had seconded the motion and if Morgenstern intended anything else theie was a way of going about it properly. This was not the proger way. Hu%:xes said that when he voted aye he thought it was on a motion to pass two print. B Dimond expressed surprise at the resolu- tion. “Thisisan attempt to falsify the minutes and not to correct them,” he said. ““The minutes are correct and we have no right to change them.” Mayor Sutro said: ‘“My recollection is clear in the matter—the motion was as the minutes have it.”’ Benjamin said he had been under the impression that it was going to print. He voted for the water order in the com- mittee, but reserved the right to change his vote in the board meeting. - “You can move to reconsider,” said the Mayor. : Dimond moved that the minutes be adopted as read. The motion was lost by the seven to five vote. Taylor then said: “Your Honor, we must do something with the minutes. They must be approved. It isclearly a fraud to change them by resolution from Tepresenting what actually took place. This resolution wasapproved unanimously by the Water Committee, and the chair- man of that committee moved to adopt the resolution. That was carried, and the minutes show that it was carried. The man who made the motion admits that he made it, and yet offers a resolution to change the minutes so that they will Tepresent us as doing something we did not do.” There was a pause and the Mayor put the question as to the adoption of Morgen- stern’s resolution, and it was adopted by the same vote that defeated Dimond’s mo- tion. And so the minutes were thus made to falsify themselves. The next surprise was sprung by Wag- ner, who offered a substitute water-rate resolution—a substitute for the laboriously vrepared resolution of the Water Commit- tee. In general terms it increases the rate for meters beyond that prepared by the committee; it leaves the hydrant rate the same, $5; the general house rate is reduced from 10 to 50 per cent below that of the committee, the 5 per cent penalty being taken off. The rate for public baths is reduced from 80 to 70 cents; the rate for horses from 35 to 30 cents. Wagner claims that it reduces the rate to 56,000 house con- sumers 15 per cent. The net cut on the water company’s revenue from the con- sumer is $120,000, but the increase caused by the hydrant rate is $70,000, which leaves anet cut of $50,000. This is $50,000 more favorable to the water company than the committee’s resolution, which cut into the company a clean $100,000. 4 In offering his resolution Wagner said that as the cuts where made were in favor of the people who most needed it, it would be acceptable to not only the people but the water company. The water company had declared that they would not make the extensions called for by the suburbs and the improvements which the Chief of the Fire Department said were necessary in the thickly poElllM.ed portions of town to offer reasonable security against fire if the committee’s resolution was adopted. ‘‘Have you any guarantee that they will do so with this?” asked Hobbs. red that they will give us all n reason,’’ was the reply. Dimond protested against adopting the resolution, which he “had not heard of be- fore,” he said. But the resolution was adopted, Di- Joond, Hughes, Taylor, Spreckels and Hobbs voting no apainst King, Scully, Benjamin, Hirsch, Dunker, Morgenstern and Wagner. Hirsch introduced a resolution to recon- sider the action of the previous meeting directing the gas and electric light com- panies to shut off their lights in the streets, which, after some discussion, was carried, Benjamin, Dimond and Taylor opposing it. Mayor Sutro offered alittle surprise him- self in a veto of the order making it un- lawful for any person to keep a horse and vehicle in the street in front of private property for a longer period than five minutes without consent of the property- owner. The reason given was that under this order property-owners practicall came owners of the street, and could rent the same for the purpose of kee ing wagons there. The Chief of Police had advised against it. enjamin introduced a resolution to the effect ‘‘that the position of driver >f the police patrol, now filled by Mr. Bushway, be declared vacant, and that John F. Mar- ten be appointed to fill the place so made vacant.”” It was adopted. Mr. Spreckels offered a resolution Tequir- ing that the Superintendent of Streets file forthwith in the Mayor’s office a list of all contracts for street or sidewalk work now in course of construction, showing therein the name of the contractor, streets em- braced and general terms of the contract, Second — That the Superintendent of Streets be required to file a daily report showing therein for the preceding day the names of all persons or corporations with whom any contract was made for work, street or sidewalk, the names of the streets embraced with cross-streets given, together with the specifications, time given to com- plete work and the price. Mr. Spreckels also_introduced a resolu- tion providing that in letting contracts for the construction of sewers the Superin- tendent of Streets require trenches to be kept open for st least one block, so that the joints of all pipes and all brick- work may be thoroughly examined and approved by him, and until the connec- tions bave been completed for the block. Messrs. King and Morgenstern filed a majority report against granting the con- tract for supplying hay to the various City deparuments to Scott & McCord, and in favor of granting it to Keefe & Co. The A resolution was offered by Mr. Spreck- els granting to Mrs. Jane L. Stanford the right “to exhibit livestock on_May 23 on Van Ness avenue, between Market and Fell streets.” A communication from the Folsom- street lmprovement Club, inviting the board to attend a mass-meeting at T wenty- second and Folsom streets on behalf of the Southside boulevard, was read and the invitation accepted. A communication inviting the board to accept the hospitality of Santa Cruz dur- ing its Venetian water carnival was also accepted The bid of the Pacific Supplz Company for furnishing supplies to the City prison- ers at 24.75 cents per head per day was re- jected on Dimond’s motion as being too igh, and the clerk was instructed to re- advertise for bids. The rate that this same company took the contract for last year was 19.95, and Dimond explained that, as the price of things was going down, there was no reason for an advance, which means something like $15,000 to the City. The other contracts were awarded accorx- ing to advertisements. Mayor Sutro had left the Supervisors’ room when the bituminous-rock resolu- tion was passed. He was apprised of the action by a CALL reporter last night. He said: { report was placed on file. do not believe they can do that. ‘What is the use of the Mayor and his veto if the Supervisors can evade it by simply running through a resolution having the same effect whenever an order is vetoed ? 1 will look the matter up to-morrow, and, if necessary, I will carry the matter into court and get a decision upon it.” CORRECT,, SIGHTLY AND WELL MADE ARE THE QUALITIES OUR TAN SHOES POSSESS, AND OUR PRICES ARE LOWER — THAN THOSE ILL SHAPED THINGS OUR COMPETITORS DISPLAY AS FINE GOODS.

Several Tons of It Breathed Out in a Lifetime. We breathe oxygen in and coal out. Experi- ments show that eight ounces troy of solid car- bon are given off by a pair of human lungs ev- ery 24 hours. That would be 64 tons in a life of 75 years. What would that amount of car- bon be worth in the form of diamond? A dia- mond is pure carbon. The price of diamonds concerns very few people, but the condition of the lungs is a mat- ter of supreme importance in this season of changing weather. Unless the lungs be strong they cannot expel the carbon. A cold attack- ingthem directly weakens them. Any depression, though it seems to affect only one organ, must be overcome by bracing the whole body. For this purpose the doctors preseribe stimulants. Duify’s Pure Malt Whisky is highly prized by the medical profession, because it rouses the latent energy of the body, creates a keen appe- tite, and is invigorating and nerve-soothing. If the use of it were followed by an injurious reaction, the doctors would not commend it. The fact is, that Duffy’s Pure Malt Whisky stimulates the organstodo their work prop- erly, so that 4il ground gained is held. Hence, it is a standard medicine; a house- old remedy of proven value.
