Prominent Bicyclists Say That the Road Is Very Badly Needed. Considerable interest has been aroused among San Francisco wheelmen in the ef- forts of the Half-million Club to have money appropriated by the Supervisors to build the boulevard to San Jose, which was first suggested by the CavrL. Captain A. C. Thornton of the Olympic Cycling Club said yesterday: “There is not a wheelman in the City who can fail to be interested in the proposition of building a boulevard to San Jose, and, to my mind, horsemen ought to be just as much interested. At present there is only one road out of the City that wheelmen and horsemen can use,and that lies all through Butchertown and along by the slaughter-houses and the mud flats. A boulevard could be built that would avoid the hills and run along a pleasanter route. “The only way to get the boulevard is to keep on agitating. I know the members of the Olympic Cycling Clubas individuals are thoroughly in sympathy with the scheme. As for donations or assessments I have no authority to speak before the matter is brought up before the club; for myself Ishould be glad to be assessed a reasonable amount if I was sure the sum would go into the boulevard and that there would be no jobbery. A good road outside the City would be worth three inside.” Captain Thornton added that he intended ol ix up the matter at the next meeting of the Olympic Cycling Club as the mem- bers might be willing to take action, and he believed some of them might have good suggestions to offér. C. N. Langton, secretary of the Bay City ‘Wheelmen's Club, said that every cyclist must be interested in the plan to build a boulevard to San Jose, and that he be- lieved the Bay City Wheelmen would take hold if the scheme seemed likely to go through. The members of the Young Men’s Chris- tian Association Cycling Club have dis- cussed the boulevard proposition a good deal in an informal way, and the presi- dent, James Sims, intends to bring up the matter at the next meeting to see if the club will take formal action in the matter. Mr. Sims said yesterday : *“The boys take a good deal of interest in the suggestion, and are anxious to see it become a reality. Till after the meeting I cannot say whether they are prepared to take any action, but in an informal waiv) d have heard many of them say that they would be willing to assess themselves $2 a year each for good cycling roads.” V. Tucker, president of the Imperial Cycling Club, has announced his intention of bringing the matter before the board of directors next Monday. In discussing the matter yesterday he said it was his opinion that the scheme should have the support of every wheelman in the city. The probability is that many other clubs will give the subject of the boulevard their attention, as the proposition has every- Wwhere veen favorably discussed. Mr. S. W. E. Hawkins, advertising man- ager of the Stearns bicycles, says in the Newspaver Maker that next year, after the present contracts expire, bicycle advertis- ing will be done mainly in the daily papers instead of in the monthlies as now. R‘ehe daily paper is the paper of the present. The magazine is to it what the almanac is to the morning’s weather report. ————— A mysterious pool is located near Brooks- ville, Fia.

NEW SAN RAFAEL CHURCH, Presbyterians Have Just Com-~ pleted a Fine Stone Edifice. MRS. PARK'S GIFT BEGAN IT. Montgomery Memorial Chapel Is Almost Finished—An Orphan= age Started. The residents of San Rafael are quite proud of the new Presbyterian church, which occupies a corner at Fifth avenue and E street. It is what might be called a home product from chancel to beliry, for the fine quality of blue stone, of which its walls consist, was quarried near by, and the interior woodwork and doors are from wood peculiar to the Pacific Coast only. It has cost the Presbyterians probably $35,000 altogether. The donation of §20,000 from Mrs. Treanor W. Park was the finan- cial basis the worshipers builded upon, and Rev. Arthur Crosby, Dr. and Mrs. W. H. while, out of deference to public opinion and for the good of rowing, their crew will not row on Sunday next, nevertheless they are prepared and anxious to match their crew against the winners for a special trophy. 2 At present it seems that the contest will Test with the following: Qlympics, Acmes, Ariels, Pioneers and Dolphins. _Though the Olympics are to Yow & spe- cial race at Santa Crnz to-morrow they are still looked upon as sure winners of the race Sunday, and some even expect them to win at Santa Cruz. A DAMAGED PHONOGRAPH. | The Result of Alleged Carelessness by | Southern Pacific Men. G. M. Rogers has commenced an action in the Justices’ Court to recover the sum of $270 from the Southern Pacific Railroad | Company. From the allegations in the !compluim it appears that on the 19th of | last September Rogers was a passenger on | one of the trains of the company defend- ant on his way from Suisun to Benicia, | and at that time had on his lap a phono- ! graph, which did not occupy any unusual amount of space and did not inconvenience | other passengers. The conductor informed him that he would not be allowed to carry that package | on his lap, and that it would have to be | deposited in the baggage car. It was taken from him by a brakeman, who placed it in | anotner car, and when Benicia was reached the phonograph was thrown from the car THE FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH OF SAN RAFAEL. Noble, Mr. and Mrs. A. W, Foster, R. J. Trumbo, Robert Dollar, Charles H. Fish, Mrs. T. Wintringham, Mrs. A. E. Kent and other ladies and gentlemen interested have succeeded in erecting what the city regards as one of its most attractive archi- tectural adornments. The style of the church may be said to be composite—that is, it combines Ro- manesque arches with old English walls and tower. coting_is of white oak, unstained. Contractor Barr did the wooawork and McKenzie the stone. The architects were Percy & Hamilton. A stained-glass me- morial window is dedicated to Ira Cook. Dedication of the building is to take place soon. The Presbyterians have been singularly | progressive. Not only is their new church finished and ready for services but the at- tractive Montgomery memorial chapel in the San Anselmo Valley, near the theologi- cal seminary, is almost completed. This, as is well known, was built according to the conditions of Alexander Montgomery’s munificent bequest. Anorphanage hasalso been started by the Presbyterians on E street, between Fourth and Fifth. Considerable ballasting of the roadbed has been done by the S8an Francisco and North Pacific Railway Company. About 3000 carloads of gravel have been dumped along the track northward from Novato during the last two months, Property-owners have been allowed sixty days in which to lay concrete side- \\'alfis on B street, from Third street to Fifth avenue. Mayor McCarthy at the last meeting of the Board of Trustees ad- vised harmony and systematic work in making the various street improvements. “San Rafael,” said he, *‘is now a nice, clean, attractive city, and I think this de- sirable condition should be continued.”” The board heartily agreed with him. Electric lights are to be placed at the following corners: Mission and Mary streets, Belle avenue and Laurel street, Forbes and Culloden Park avenues, Forbes avenue and I street and Palm and Olive avenues. BOAT-RACING ON SUNDAY. Crews That Will Certainly Start—The Olympians to Row at Santa Cruz. At a meeting of the regatta committee of the South End Rowing Club, held Tues- day evening, it was decided to row the race for the junior championship of the Pacific Coast Suaday next, at 10 A. M., over the Long Bridge course. There was much dis- cussion as to the hour of starting, and a resolution asking the referee to disqualify all crews not appearing at the starting line at 10 A. M. sharp was finally passed by a unanimous vote. The referee intends to act up to both the spirit and letter of the resolution. and will start the race promptly it only one crew appears. The whole course is visible from Long Bridge, which | can be reached by:taking the Third-street cars and transferring to the Potrero divis- ion and then leaving the cars after crossing the Channel-street bridge. This race is necessitated by the decision of the referee in ordering the junior race to be rowed over. On the 2d inst. this race was rowed, the Olvmgics and St. Mary’s finishing respectively first and second, but, as there were almost as many fouls as there were entries in the race, the referee decided that the race had to be rowed again. Bt. Mary’s will be unable to enter the race, but the Olympics will again demon- strate to the public that their crew cannot beaten. The Olympic _crew and a picked crew from the South Ends will go to Santa Cruz this evening to row a match race before the Carnival Queen of Santa Cruz. Cap- tain MacArthur takes with him his favor- ite boat—the Fly-Blister—while Captain Fritz pins his faith o the Felton. At a meeting of the South End Rowing Club the members decided to withdraw their crew from the race for the junior championship. Many circumstances led to this determination. The regatta is un- der the auspices of the South End Bowing Club. This club offers the prize for whic! the crews are to contest; their crew at the former contest, owing to an accident, fin- ished last. From these facts the members, believing that the public would think that they endeavored to have the race rowed again in order that their crew might win, assed a resolution requesting their junior P: circle the pool ! crew to withdraw. Though this resolution closer to | was passed the members still believe that their crew can beat any of the entries, and The massive timbers of the | truss roof are of Oregon pine and the | to the platform in such a reckless manner that it cost Rogers $60 to repair it. Butthat is not all. Rogers was to have 5§i\'en exhibitions with the phonograph in | enicia and San Francisco, in the public | schools, but by reason of the damage done to the instrument he was unable to do so. | Consequently he was at a loss of $15 a day, | which amount he claims the exhibitions | would have netted him. Having been un- | able to make a settlement with the rail- road company, he sues for the amount named and costs. PRIZE-FIGHT FOR BLOOD, Sloggers Who Are Booked to Scrap on the Isle of Monte Cristo. Tom Burns and Splder Kelly Are the Gentlemen Who Wwill Amuse the Gang. “Oh, pshaw! We will have de fun of de year on Sunday over at de Isle of Monte Cristo, see? You be there, sure, and you will see de scrap of yer life. ‘Spider’ Kelly | and Crackerjack Burns are drawn down as | fine as needles for de go.” The above conversation was heard yes- terday evening on Ellis street. One very formidable-looking specimen of the human pug was endeavoring to illustrate to his friend what a good time he would have by joining a select company of sloggers on | next Sunday evening on a trip to the “Isle of Monte Cristo,” in S8an Pablo Bay. A club, which is known to sloggers as the Pastime Athletic Club, with headquar- ters at 14 McAllister street, is arranging | the details for this proposed Sunday scrap- | ping-match on scrappers’ island. The names of the_ sloggers appear on flaming hangers, and the bill of fistic fare reads something like this: “The great fight of the season to a finish will be held on Sunday at the new resort over the bay which we have named the ‘Isle of Monte Cristo.” The scrap will be between the famous Spider Kelly and Tom Burns, a champion from Australia. Tickets will be sold for $2, but no women or children are wanted. The purse, in cold coin, will be $250, the winner to take all. For further room 36.” For some weeks past a number of slog- fiers who are now traveling on their uppers ave been schemipg with a view of catch- ing some of the unsorbixficnted sporting men in a game called slog. It is only rea- sonable to suppose that they have suc- ceeded in lam})‘mg one or two gullibles, otherwise the match ‘“for a purse of $250,” between Kelly and Burns, would not have been consummated. The managers of the “‘great fight,” which is announced to come | off on_the Isle of Monte Cristo, state that | the officers of the law cannot interfere, as | the island in question is not under the jurisdiction of Uncle Sam. Of course the | opinions of the gentlemen who have | the arrangements of the battle in hand as regards the topogravhy of the country and the right of this Government to inter- {ere, are beyond question. Those are mat- | ters of small moment which the public of | this City will decide on Sunday morning next, when “the gang” will make its ap- Penrance on the wharf. The Chiei of Po- ice is assuredly aware of the advertise- ments drawing attention to a_ prize-fight, and there is no doubt that he will have some of his lusty men on hand purposely to see that decorum is preserved on the voyage to this new Island of Monte Cristo in San Pablo Bay. It is said that the Spider and his prospective opponent have been trained down as hard as nails and are xfindg fora great scrap next Sunday for lood. ——- An Extraordinary Freak.

THEY SECURE 25381-2 FEET. The Purchase Price $31,731—One- Third Cash and the Balance on Easy Terms. The great Comstock consolidation scheme for, the concerted development of the Brunswick lode is an accomplished fact. Yesterday four companies operating on the Comstock held shareholders’ meetings and in each case the stockholders voted unanimously to acquire further territory and authorized their boards of directors to receive deeds for the ground and to com- plete the purchase. The corporations which have thus ex- pressed their confidence in the richness of the Brunswick lode are the Chollar Mining Company, the Potosi Mining Company, the Best & Belcher Mining Company and the Gould & Curry Mining Company. That the stockholders realized the enor- mous importance of their action is shown by the large provortion of stock repre- sented and voted at the meetings. The Chollar Company has $106,000 capital stock, and of this $95,000 in shares was repre- sented at the meeting. Of Potosi $94,000 out of $106,000 was voted. Best & Belcher had $87,000 represented out of $100,000, and Gould & Curry $86,000 from a similar total. At each meeting appropriate resolutions were passed. Of them the preamble stated a description of the territory to be secured and the terms of purchase.” The enacting clause of the resolutions in each case read as follows: Resolved, That we, the stockholders of this corporation, at a meeting duly called for that purpose, do’ hereby ratify, approve and con- fitm said purchase of said mining groundat and for the price and sum above stated, and the officers of this corporation are hereby authorized to receive a deed for said ground and complete the purchase. By the purchase the companies acquire territory on the Brunswick lode as fol- lows: Chollar 700 feet, Best & Belcher 526 feet, Potosi 700 feet, and Gould & Curry 61234 feet. The purchase price is $12 50 a foot, a total for the four companies of $31,731 25, and the terms of payment are one-third cash, one-third at the end of three months and the balance at the end of six months. At first in the stockholders’; meeting there was apparent a little diffidence on the part of a few, but as soon as the expert Teport on the property was read this van- ished. Colonel J. B. Low was the expert employed by corporations to examine the Brunswick lode. He spent several days on the spot, and made a personal examina- tion of the ledge for its entire extent. His report is very favorable, and his conclu- sions most interesting. They are as fol- lows: In conclusion, the Brunswick lode is within a mineral zone.’ It is & very strong vein of good matrix and carries both gold and silver for the entire length, from the Monte Cristo on the north to the Occidental on the south. In every place where the vein has been worked to any extent pay ore has been obtained. Atall times when work was attempted heretofore, too much ‘water was encountered to render it practicable to mine ore of low grade. The exceptional richness of the ore found in the Comsteck vein attracted capital away from | other promising prospects in the vicinity. The entire Brunswick vein and all veinsencountered are now freed from water by the Sutro tunuel, thus enabling owners to work the mines for about 50 per cent of the former cost. Samples from the Occidental winze, on the 500 level, prove conclusively that rich ore exists at that point in paying quantities, and samples brought with me- ifom every other point mentioned fully justifies all the fore- going conclusions. Though the action taken yesterday by the four mining companies mentioned in the foregoing assures the success of the proposition to develofi the Brunswick lode, there are still three companies to take final action in the matter. These are the Hale & Norcross Mining Company, the Savage Mining Company and the Con. California & Virginia. The Hale & Nor- cross and the Savage companies hold stockholders’ meetings to-day and that for the Con. California & Virginia is set for the 21st inst. It is thought that the action in each case will be favorabl Every able-bodied male in Norway has to serve in the army.
