Andrus died at an early hour yesterday morning after a long and severe illness. Tae first signs of fatal gisease came in December last, when he suffered a paralytic stroke which com- pelled him to take to his bed. After that he was almost entirely belpless, but was tenderly cared for by his wife. ? Andrus was born at Farmington, ., in 1841, and came to California in becoming connected with the San Francisco Manufacturing Company. He married the wife who survives him, for- merly Mrs. Prentiss, in 1886. Six years ago Mr. Andrus’ sight, which had_been failing for some time, left him entirely, and he was compelled to retire from the active business life he had led up to that time. Andrus served two terms as Mayor of Oukland, being elected in 1878 by the Workingmen'’s party, and again at the next election, his last opponent being D. W. Standeford, who was indorsed by both the Republican and Democratic parties. he ex-Mayor was in power at the time the City Council passed the ordinance authorizing the institution of the water- front suits, and signed the ordinance. It was said that be was offered $8000 to veto the measure. In 1820 he was appointed secretary of the Board ® of Wailroad Commissioners, and served until 1887. De- ceesed wasa )‘Kamn in high standing, and the funeral will be helf from Masonic Temple on Sundnmext uuder the aus- ices of Live OQak ge No. 61, of which e was 8 member. Bones Being Sued. Contractor 8am Bones of the Seventh- street local is being sued for a divorce by his wife. They haye been married for thirteen years and now Mrs. Bones charges |of the same. His knowledze about | Boogar’s legal affairs was limited except | as to his own fee, which was $2500. The trial will be resumed to-morrow morning. The Druggists’ Trial. Druggists Osgood and Kellogz were brought before Judge Wood yesterday to answer to a charge of selling hiquors, H. | Netshe, a whisky expert from San Fran- | cisco, was placed on the stand and testified | that the so-called malt whiskies sold by druggists are really not malt- whiskies at all, Tor they contain little or no malr. He exhibited a bottle of pure malt whisky | which he said was sufiicient to scent the whole courtroom if poured on the floor. | The matter of glycerine was brought up. The expert said that glycerine could not be detected, as it is tasieless, and he fur- ther said that there is more or less gly- cerine in all whisky, whether sold by * | druggists or others. Aclerk of Druggist Kellogg testified that | he had been instructed to sell liquors for | medical purposes only. The case will be | taken up next Thursday when a decision will be rendered. | The New Athletic The proposition of A. L. | of the Oakland, San Le: | wards Electric Railroaa Company, to build | a handsome athletic park at Elmhurst for the use of the differentathletic clubs about | the bay, is being very favorably re- | ceived. Last night President Neece of the Grounds. tone, secretary | Club. and President Fitzgerald of the | Reliance Athletic Club met Mr. Stone and | bad an informal talk on the suject. They | are all hizhly enthusiastic over the pro- matters will be carried through with a rush. No action can be taken until the members of the differentclubs. Mr. Stone will draw up an agreement to be presented to the clubs at their next meeting. Going to Camp Fairbanks. | fantry, N.G. morrow for Camp Fairbanks, Petaluma, for a weeis’s stay. Captain G. H.

Southern Pacific’s assessment are: | 400, rails $18,000, coal $43,600, piles $5000, machinery and tools $40,700, total $180,500. It was thought by many that the raii- road company would fight against paying case as they have already paid their taxes on personal property to both the city and the county. Lakeside Tennis Tournament. The new Lakeside tennis conrts have given a great impetus to the society game in Oakland. The tournament begun on Decoration day has been going on all this week and the contest has narrowed down to two players, Frost and Selby. The finals will be played to-day. Selby has a handicap of 30 and Frost 1-15. Both players have’ been doing excellent work lately, but it is thought Selby will win on account of the big handicap. Lambert’s Trial Postponed. ‘W. R. Lambert, formerly clerk of the Police Court, who is charged with misap- ropriating public money, was to bave Ead his trial in Judge Frick’s court yester- day, but it was postponed on account of the Collins trial not being finished.

The members of the First Presbyterian Church of Berkeley have finally decided upon a site for the erection of their pro- osed new building, as stated in yester- ae"s CarL, % Various sites upon which to build have been considered, the last of which was a lot at the corner of Durant avenue and Fulton street, for which property the church recently paid $4800. On May 8 a | congregation meeting was called and it was decided to build on the newly pur- chased lot, but since then W. E. Sell has offered a $1600 lot to be used as a site for the church and a donation of $1000 has also been offered if the new building be erected on the site of the present church. The building will be in the old English style of architecture, 124 feet in length, with a frontage of 30 feet on Ellsworth street. It is to be erected on the expansive plan, that is, so constructed that the au- ditorium and Sunday-school rooms can be | thrown into one large hall. The seating capacity of the auditorium, including the galleries, will be between 600 and 700, and with the Sunday-school room thrown open 1200 can be accommodated. It is proposed to have the pulpitin the corner, with the choir loft behind and above. Among the accessories to the main structure will be parlors, infant-class room, pastor's study and library. Small classrooms will be par- titioned off around the sides of the main Bunday-school room. The board of trustees expects that the work on the main_structure will be com- menced at once. Itis estimated that the building will cost in the neighborhood of $15,000, nearly all of which has been sub- scribed. The membership of the church is about 300. The pastor is Rev. H. A. Ketchum, D.D., and the board of trustees consists of J. M. Whitworth, Professor J. K. Stuart, C. K. Clark and Daniel Fair- banks, with C. P, Hoay as secretary. Reception to the U. C. Athletes, A movement is under way to give tha victorious athletic team from the univer- sity a big reception upon their arrival from the East, about July 1. ident Morrison of the Alumni Association, W. N. Friend, ‘:reaident of the Associated Stu- dents, and Walter Magee, physical direc. tor of the university, are the most actively engaged in making preperations for the re. ception. t is expected that a delegation of stu- dents and others from Berkeley will go as far as Sacramento to meet the athletes upon their return. E. M. Wolf, secretary of the Alumni Association, who is now living in Sacramento, is working among those in the capital eity who are irterested in university athletics. Mrs. Whiting’s Last Check. Probably the last piece of business trans- aocted by Mrs. Harold Whiting, who was lost with her family in the Colima disaster, was to make a donation to a charitable institution. Yesterday a check was pre- sented to the Berkeley Commercial Bank, signed by Julia Dana Whiting, and drawn in fayor of the San Francisco Institution for Homeless Children. The charity of both Mrs. Whiting and her husband was a feature which marked their lives while in Berkeley. e Shooting Rattlesnakes. On October 9, 1891, I was hunting on Skitchewaug. a peculiarly rough and pre- cipitous mountain in Windsor County, Vermont, famous, among other things, for its rattlesnakes, although they are seldom seen o late in the season as that. The morning sun beat warmly in upon the masses of loose rock at the bottom of a cliff, and this, I presume, had brought out the snakes. fien’mg a slight rustling in the leaves, I turned and saw a big rattler gliding slowly along within a dozen feet of me. Ihad never killed one, and rejoicing in this opportunity I gave him a charge of go. 8 shot, says a writer in the Forest and tream. THE BAY DISTRICT RACES, Imp. Ilvy Dumped the Talent Hard in a Five-Furlong Handicap. WON AT ODDS OF 15 TO 1 A Poor Start Killed the Chances of De La Guerra, Played for a “Killing.” W. 0’B. Macdonough was in great form yes- terday ana quit the day fully $8000 ahead. He had wagers down on Tamalpais, imp. Ivy and l Garcia. Josephine, winner of the first race, by imp. St. George out of Una B,is a haif-sister to Hymn, but comes a long way from possessing his great turn of speed. “8teve" Peters rode the winners of the first two races. “Steve” did not have his feet in the stirrups when the flag fell on the first start, and finished with them dangling at the horse’s sides. Joe Flynn, an elder brother of Willie Flynn, who was recently ruled off the turf jor his pe- culiar ride on Realization, leaves for his home in Uniontown, N.J., to-day. Joe feels very gloomy over his brother’s trouble, and thinks that many of the charges of crookedness made against him were due to incompetency, s Willie was never considered a top-notcher. That beiug the case, he can take a few pointers while on the ground, and ii taken, and the stew- ards see fit to reinstate him, he will be more carefulin the future. The boy is young and should not be too harshly judged. That the game at the Bay District the last few weeks has been a hard one to beat is a generally conceded fact, and it is grow- ing harder daily. The sea that the talent launched their craft on yesterday was a tempestuous one, but that its early wreck was due to overloading is questionable. The causes were many, principal among which was Starter Merrell’s ragged work with the flag. In his early efforts Merrell bid fair to prove a formidable rival to Fer- guson, but of late he has fallen off woe- fully and his starting has been the cause of much unfavorable comment. And then the horses, what a forlorn, jagged, weary- locking lot they are, with a sort of I'd- like-to-have-a-vacation air about them. Many of those starting have bumps and lumps on their legs not unlike the mis- shapen pedal extremities of the jester in a comic opera company, and everywhere is seen marks of the firing iron. The bet- ting ring plainly shows the want of a free silver bill, or a subdivision of this world’s | goods among those of the lower classes ac- cording to the anarchistic theories. The | better class of turf devotees no longer crowd the clubhouse balconies, but have passed the deal over to the specu- lators who would play the horses if the races were run in Patagonia and it took six days by winding, tortuous routes to get the results. Two out of five favorites won yesterday, the others going to outsiders, one a 20 and one a 15 to 1 chance. But those first choices that were downed were of such a torrid character thata wet blanket was thrown on the winnings of the two favor- ites that did survive. There were all sorts of trouble for the talent in the five-furlong handicap. Quirt | opened a 3 to b favorite in the books, but went back to 15 to 20 with the customary ugly rumors of ha\'lnfi undergone the em- balming process. ymn, the second opened at 8 to 5, and these odds were obtainable as he went to the post. Imp. Ivy it was said had suddenly become acclimated and the ‘‘wise push” got aboard, getting as good as 15 to 1 against her. Gypsy Girl was the otner starter. Lettin% a good breakaway pass him Mer- rell finally dropped his flag to a poor start, Quirt off clear of the others, Apparently not overburdened with speed, Quirt was soon passed by Gypsy Girl, and on the far turn was &ussed by Ivy. The latter soon assumed command, and al- though Hymn came sirong at the end she held him safe and won cleverly by a length. Quirt was a_fair third. No records were broken, the timers hanging up 1:013. d a half furlong race for maiden is opened the day’s racing, and a érive by the 8 to 5 favorite, Josephine, who beat the fine-looking daughter of Torso, Theresa K, a head at the wire. The latter was a 15 to 1 shot, and would have snatched victory had the distance been a few yards further. Linda Vista,a 5 to 1 chance, was third, a head away. % The next, a short six-furlong run for non-winners at the meeting, drew out a fine assemblage of “goats.”” De La Guerra was the “pipe,” and opening at 6 to 1 was backed down to twos, being the post fayor- ite, and his winning meant a heavy loss to the books. 3 & Merrell dropped his flag with the “good thing” off last of the bunch of nine start- ers, and although he made a great run, after being injudiciously ridden, could not catch Tamalpais a 20 to 1shot, who won by a length. Halifax finished third. The fourth race at the same distance developed another ‘'pile-driver” in Green- back Jr., who opened at 2}¢ to 1, and was thumped down to 6 to 5 in short order. He got away a couple of lengths in front of the flag, and won as he liked, four lengths in front of the second choice, imp. Cal- phurnus, with Red Wing third, about four lengths further away. i 3 Another prominent favorite, Rico, was covered with moss on the last event, a mile selling affair. Opening at6 to 5, he went to the post 13 to 10, and was never in it. Bernardo led until the far turn was reached, when Garcia headed him and won in a big gallop by five lengths in 1:42. Del Norte coming strong at the end, beat Ber- nardo out nearly two lengths for the place. ‘The odds against the winner were 5 to 1. MULHOLLAND. 1003, EIRST RACE-Four and half far- $300.

ALL KINDS OF SPORTING, What May Become of the Olympic Athletic Grounds. The Colma Athletic Club Has Matched Mahoney and An- thony to Box. The directors of the Olympic Clubare feeling jubilant over the prospects of leas- ing the outside athletic grounds to an Eastern company for a term of five years ata monthly rental of $200. The com- pany, which will in all probability take possession of the defunct athletic park in the near future, proposes to tear down the grand stand and tennis courts and construct an immense water chute on the toboggan®plan, where boats will be in readiness to give pleasure- hunters a ride around the grounds. Itis said that chute-riding in Chicago is now a very popular pastime. The Olympic Club "is now paying the owner of . the grounds $240 a month rent, and if sat- | isfactory terms can be made between the Eastern water company and the club the latter will have to pay only $40 a month rent until the time for the expiration of its lease, which will be five years from now. The Olympic Gun Club met last evening, but nothing of any importance was trans- acted, as a general meeting of gun clubs interested in clay-bird shooting will be held on Saturday evening next. The crews which competed in the regatta on May 30, with the exception of the St. Mary’s College crew, have agreed to race again on Sunday, the 16th inst., over the same course. The Olympic Club’s crew had a practice spin last evening. The Colma Athletic Club matched James Anthony of Austraha and Danny Mahoney last evening to box twenty rounds at Colma on the night of the 25th inst. The reliminary will consist of a ten-round gout between Mulverhill and Johnson (colored). = - ; TheMKeneral opinion of sportingmen is that Mahoney and Anthony will put up a first-class fight at 114 unds, the weight they have agreed to fight at. The Saint Bernard Club met last evening and a few new members were elected. The club feels highly elated over the very excellent showing it made in the dogs at the recent bench show. ALAMEDA. The much-disputed title to the office of Library Trustee will probably be the sub- ject for a test case before the Superior Court next Tuesday. When City Treas- | urer Wheeler was first served with the writ of mandamus he desired to consult the City Attorney before paying the claim of the librarian of $100 for salary for the month of May. Afterthinking the matter over Treasurer Wheeler has come to the conclusion that he will not cash any of the library warrants. Colonel Wheeler called upon City Attor- ney Taylor yesterday morning, and after a short consultation with tbat official stated to a CALL representative that he con- cluded to show cause for not cashing the warrant. “I shall not pay vhe money yet,’’ said Colonel Wheeler. “The mandate is not peremptory, but alternative, and by cash- ing the warrants nothing would be de- cided. Iam not suprosed to know which is the legal Board of Free Library Trust- ees, and shall therefore appear before Judge Ogden next Tuesday and state that as my reason for not cashing the librarian’s warrant. I want to be relieved of this un- certainty and be at liberty toact.” An injunction is still hovering over the new board and the refusal of the Treasurer to honor the warrants of the holdovers fur- ther complicates matters. The Superior Court will be resorted to for a decision, Meyer Property Attached. The property of Lounis Meyer, at the cor- ner of Pacific avenue and Lafayette street, has been levied on by J. J. Rauer to satisfy & judgment obtained in the Superior Court of 8an Francisco for §4570. Mrs. Meyer is trying to save the property and has filed a declaration of homesteadon it.

MUST BE ROWED ABAIN.{ It Was Impossible to Award | Places in the Junior Barge Race. TESTIMONY TO0 CONFLICTING. ably Take Place a Week | | | A New Contest Ordered Wil Prob- | { From Sunday. } | | There is to be another contest for the | trophies put up by the South End Rowing | Club. Such is the decision of Referee M. A. Whidden. When the junior barge race came toa | | conciusion last Sunday, a protest w: | mediately filed by Harry Brenra, cap of the Ariel crew, against the Olympic | crew on the ground of a foul. | The race was given under the auspices of | the South End Club, which offered a silver cup for the winner and a gold medal for the crew that came in second. It took place off Long Bridge, and was three- =, | quarter: of a mile and return. There were seven entries, the following clubs being | represented: Olympic, Acme, Ariel, South | End, Pioneers, St. Mary’s College and the Dolphin. Not only was there the formal protest of the Ariel made, but there were numerous other charges of fouling and failure to turn the outer buoys. Under these circumstances Referee ‘Whidden refused to make his decision un- tilhe had a conference with the seven judges who respectfully represented each of the contesting crews. This conference took place Wednesday night in Judge | Barry’s courtroom, new City Hall. In addi- | tion to the judues and the referee there was a large attendance from the clubs in- | terested, and the proceedings soon as sumed the dignity of a regular judicial in- quiry. Every one but the referee, judges | and " the newspaper representatives was | excluded from the room. The judges were: | John Elliott, representing the Olympic | | Club; Jobn L. Jaunet, St. Mar A. Melletz, South End; W. C. Espy, Pioneer; | James M. Stanly. Acme; J. 8. Uyland, Ariel; Albert P. Rothkopp, Dolphin. | Soon after the formal discussion opened the question was raised asto whether the | Olympic crew had turned the buoy before | starting on the return course. Consider- able desultory argument ensued, and it was finally decided to call in the captain | or oneof the crew of each boat to take testimony. There was not the slightest trace of acri- { mony in any of the proceedings and all| expressed their willingness to have the | referee decide the whole matter without taking testimony, but this responsibility Mr. Whidden refused to assume. While | this debate was going on Elliott of the | Olympics in the heat of enthusiasm for the crew he represented fiung out a challenge | to Uyland of the Ariels offering to put up a trophy himself for a race between the | Olympic and Ariel crews, no matter how | | the referee might decide the matter under | | discussion. His challenge was promptly | arcepted. | The defiance was directed against the | Ariels in particular, as the further issue has arisen as to whether the Ariel had | fouled the Dlympic boat or vice versa. | | Before it was determined to take testi- | mony a suggestion was made to havet Tace rowed over, but Jaunet, the St. Mary judge, stated that it would be impossible for the college crew to participate in an- | other contest, as commencement was ouly | two weeks off, and after that the crew | would be scattered. 1 After the testimony had been heard, | Harry Brennan, captain of the Ariels; | Fred A. Michels, captain of the Pioneers; | J. E Fickett of the South Ends, J. W. | Morton of the Olympics, William J. Hnn-l lon of St. Mar{'s,hmes Kennedy of the Acmes and William Patterson, captain of the Dolphins, a brief argument was made by Elliott of the Olympics claiming first place for his club. | After reading over carefully the notes he | had taken of the testimony and looking up | the rules of the Pacific Athletic_Associa- tion,which governed the race, Mr. Whidden | stated that he could not decide the matter | of placing the boats, as the evidence had | been too contradictory. He then con- cluded: My decision that the race be rowed ever at some future time.” | s given second place, the other crews to con- test for first position. On being put to a vote, the decision went against him. No | date was fixed for the race, but a sugges- | tion was made that it take place a week from Sunday next, and this will probably be favorably considered by the regatta com- mittee of the South Enad Club. As St. Mary’s will not be able to taka part in this contest, her crew was given the privilege of challenging the winner. Jaunet stated, however, that his club was now out of the affair altogether.
