The yachts taking part-in the race.to Santa Cruz were towed out to the North Heads by the tug Reliance yesterday morn- ing, and at 8:15 they crossed the starting line and filled away for the south. They were led by the Lurline, in command of John D. Spreckels, having on hoard Charles M. Shortridge, ‘D. M. Delmas, William Cunningham, E. F.

Such a condition of affairs was predicted nearly twenty years ago by a number of - political . economists, who stated that the day would come when the white people would work for the Cninese.

A PULL FOR FOLSOM STREET. Nearly the Whole Ground Is Gone Over—Improvement Clubs Are Insistent. The committee-rooms of the Board of Supervisors were crowded last -evening with representative business men and property-owners together, by invitation, with the Board of Education. The ¥inance Committee had gathered to discuss further items of demand. for room on the tax levy.

SANTA CRUZ, Cax., July 2.—Early this morning preparations were made to re- ceive the fleet of yachts from San Fran- cisco. The gun used for testing the pow- der at the California works was placed in position at Lighthouse Point to signal the arrival of each yacht and notify the skip- The swift Lurline was the first to cross the point, arriving at4:04 ». M. At 4:39:30 o’clock the Gracie S arrived. Following her came the Annie at 4:50 and the Nellie This gave the Lurline the raci and first prize, a solid-silver tureen. The Annie, calculating time allowance, got sec- ond, and the Gracie S third. The three beautiful prizes offered by the Santa Crnz committee will be presented to- morrow evening. The first prize is-a solid silver soup tureen, the second a champagne cooler, and the third a toddy kettle. These articles, always handy aboutia yacht, are of beautiful design, and represent artistic workmanship, The presentation to win- ners will take place at the Pacific Ocean House, where an invitation ball in com- pliment to the visiting yachtsmen will be Fiveu by Mr.and Mrs. J. F. Chace of the hotel. Speaking of the speedy trip from the l-;olrz;en Gite to Santa Cruz, John D. Spreckels said to-nighi: “This is the best time made by the Lurline since her run six vears ago, when she came down 1 5 hours and 20 minutes, The time to-day was 7 hours and 49 minutes. - We carried every- thing that would draw.” 5 Alex Swanson said: “The Lurline spread 9000 feet of canvas.” After passing Pigeon Point we put up the balloon stay sail. ‘When the Lurline made her famous run six yea®s ago she had a half gale and could not carry so much canvas.” Charles M. Shortridge said the trip was delightful in every respect.. A speed of thirteen knots an” hour was maintained when the yacht got the wind. . D. M. Delmas, Ed F. Preston and Wll- liam Cunningham, who were aboard the Lurline, were equally delighted. Mr. Del- mas remarked that he had never had a better sail. s Commodore Caduc of the flagship Annie mentioned the dehghts of the trip to a host of friends in Santa Cruz. The yachts- men are partaking of the hospitality of Santa Cruz citizens this evening. From Santa Cruz the Lurline will sail south to San Diego. WORKING FOR CHINESE. White Women and Girls Are Being Em- ployed by Asiatic Orchardists in Fresno County. Labor Commissioner Fitzgerald yester- day received the information that a large number of white women and girls are be- ing employed by Chinese orchardists in Fresno County. His informant stated thata short time ago several Chinese pur- chased the Mulger ranch, north of Traver, and up -till recently used cooly help to work in the orchards and harvest the crop.: For some reason, mEposed “to be the scarcity of cooly hefp, the Chinese ranch- owners this year are employing white women and girls. The latter are engaged i picking and packing fruit, and, of | the public with it. President Burns s “‘So far asour agitation has gone we have | found ‘the demand for California-made | cigars ,lgrenuy on the increase, ang I think | with a little more activity on our part we | may be confident of very encouraging | results.” The meeting was mostly taken up with a discussion of ‘the best ways and means of getting the new blue label before the public. Mr. Van Guelpin charges the Evening Post with error in making him say that he was opposed to the appointment of P. N. { Wellin on the Election Commission. *I | Mr. Van Guelpin, “‘and haven’t had time | to inform myself yet on Mr. Wellin. Ido | not know anything about Mr. Wellin_one way or the other. 1did not tell anybody that I was opposed to his appointment.”’ _The matter of Mr. Wellin’s appointment did not come up before. the union in any shape. LATE CYCLING NEWS. Captain Dodge Rewarded for His Brave ery at the Association Run. The Imperial Cycling Club held its an- nual members’ meeting Monday evening at theclubrooms, 636 Golden Gate avenue. During the evening Captain Theodore C. | Dodge of the Bay City Wheelmen was pre- t sented with an elegant solid silver cup, | suitably inscribed, in recognition of his | bravery in rescuing L. Detoy, a member of | the Imperial Club, from drowning at the annual run of the California Associated Cycling Clubs to Niles Canyon on Sunday, une 2 | . The presentation was made by President | W..H. Tooker, and Captain Dodge, who | had been at a loss all the evening to under- stand why he was wanted at the Infperial Club rooms, was so overcome with sur- rise he could hardly find words to express | his thanks. Afterit was over all adjourned | to another room, where a light supper was enjoyed, and jollity reigneffihe rest of the e\'enmé. The Camera Club Cyclists will enjoy a moonlight run to the ‘beach Friday even- ing, and will journey to San Leandro next Sunday.

The hearing of the petition of Mabel Simmonds to have J. W. Bird, her em- ployer, appointed her guardian, she claim- ing that her father is cruel to her, was to have come up in Judge Slack’s court yes- terday, but in the absence of Judge Slack, Judge Troutt, who presided, said . that he had so much business in his own depart- ment that he could not devote the time to the trial of cases. in another department, and ordered the case postponed until next Wednesday.® Counsel for the father stated that he would contest the petition, ana wanted the court to hear testimony - to de- termine whether the father is not a fit per- son to have the custody of his own child, and whether the person nominated by the petitioner is a proper one to have charge of her. About forty witnesses will be ex- amined in this case. .

B.Jones. started the discussion with inquiries about the net demands. This was a cue for W. R. Sherwood, the next speaker. He said these were not times to indulge.in any extravagances. | Not half the volume of business was being done now as the merchants and manu- factirers did ten years ago. Heavy tax- ation would drive away capital. Los An- geles has the advantage of this City now | in many respects, and she will be in better sMape to control the business of the San | Joaquin Valley, so that this City will have to look to her laurels as against a city that a short time ago we 1ooke§flnmn as a mére vxllui;eA Heavy taxation, he said, would be a mndic;\}). _Thomas Magee followed on the same lines. He cited a number of instances as showing the general drop in rents. For | the small property-owner and the owner of | flats the fall in “incomes was especially hard. The property-owner he termed the universal Eckass who had to bear all the | burdens. e took the occasion to say that | if the bicycle-owner wanted the Juxury of good streets he should pay a tax to secure them. The only thing that was inereasing these days was taxation. Daniel Sullivan of the Folsom-street | Improvement Club was the first to change the melancholy: tenor of the discussion. | He was in favor of progtess; he believed | in the City paying its debts like an honest man. “I am not a silurian,” he said. *You will find that onlg' the big property- owners~ are those who make protests against improvements,- The small owner pays his assessments withiout a murmur, almost eladly if he is assured that the pay- ment means progress. We are not heavily taxed in San Francisco. New York has a4 much higher rate. The business men of that city have the foresight to know that to beautify their cit: means increased values. = You , can't make big fortunes without some outlay. I am in favor of pushing work, giving em- ployment to those who need itand keeping money in circulation. If the big property+ owners find themselves unable to pay the taxes let them sell out at a low rate to the poor and we will imy the taxes.” Mr. Magee said in reply that he had spoken not for the big property-owners, but had distinctly stated that he'spoke for the -small owners, whose back would be broken by the heavy taxation. “I don’t know a single small owner who has ~made any complaint,” said Mr. Sullivan. Mr. Sherwood said that Mr. Magee was the last man in the Uit{ who should be called a silurian, - W:th the exception of Claus Spreckels himself he had done more than any other one man ‘to free the city from the grasp-of the railroad monopoly and to generally further its best interests. He had given $15,000 to the San Joaquin Valley Railroad. *‘As for myself,” spid Mr. Sherwood, **I may te called one, but I may say that I gave $5000 to this road.” M. B, Jones took the floor again to say that merchants. were compe!le’é to car customers; times were lard; under ordi- nary conditions objections wonld not be raised; boulevards were all rightin their order, but it was best to buy bread before a swallow tail. i William Center of the Folsom-street Im- provement Club said that there had been a great deal of talk about boulevards, but the fact is that $50,000 or $60,000 will have to be spent on Folsom street i It is worn out and from six inches to two feet below the line of the railway tracks. The Western Addition has been carefully looked after for years, its streets are in good order, nicely paved, while in the Mis- sion there is not the same care manifested. Messrs. Rate, Scobie, - O'Brien, Went- worth, Sullivan, Maguire, Ambrose, Eng- lish and Baldwin spoke in forcible terms on the subject. £ The committee adjourned until next Tuesday ¢vening. z THE STREETS OF EI_O—EE(_)KD._ Petition for an Upening Up and Im- ‘provement of Some.

Then the dust and the heat both worked to make the trip at times tiresome. The ladies and the boys stood it well and were not particularly fatigued when we reached Santa Barbara. This ride has demonstrated to me the value of the rational bloomer costume for ladies who ride the wheel. If those who were with us had not had such costumes they could not have reached the journey’s | end. We traveled light all the way, taking no lunch along, but depending upon reach- ing places where we could find food and shelter. “There is one thing about our long jour- ney of which I feel proud, and that is that we did not puncture a tire nor havea break- down, We returned to the City by rail.” ————— COURSING AT XERRIGAN'S, Result of the Drawing for the Fourth of July Stakes.

A VARIETY. OF PRODUCTIONS' Burlesque, Comic Opera and Trag- edy—Bernhardt May Come. The California. The coming attractions at' the Baldwin and California theaters as arranged for by Al Hayman comprise a varied assortment of popular plays and prominent actors and actresses which will appeal to the local playgoers.. - Alfred Bouvier, the ~repre- sentative of Mr. Hayman, announced yes- terday in speaking of the programme of entertainment that during his twenty vears’ residence in this City he had not been introduced to such an array-of talent combined within the limits of a single season. The Baldwin Theater will open its four- teenth consecutive season on the 15th inst. with a presentation by Daniel Frohman’s Lyceum Company of the latest farce- comedy, “The Case of Rebellious Susan.” “An TIdeal Husband” will be presented the following evening, and on the 17th inst. the company will be seen in “The Amazons.” William Gillette’s “Too Much Johnson,” which had a run in the Standard Theater of New York for eighteen months, wiI_l be given with as much attention. to detail as it received at the Standard. There will be a four weeks’ season of John Drew’s well-known company with Maud Adams in Jeading roles. Thev ex- pect _to open with “The Banble-shop,” which made such a hit at Palmer’s Theater. Pauline Hall and her comic opera com- » a produetion for y of the brilliant | ine pany are to follow, givi the “first time in this City comic opera “‘Dorcas.”’ ~ “The Pa Show,” a burlesque on the leading pl and actors and actresses of the day, will also be among the attractions. There will | follow a brief revival of “Charley’s Aunt’’ by the original company which presented it at the Standard. A chef d’ceuvre will be A. M. Palmer’s Company in “Trilby,” This is going to be an elaborate presentation. The scenery is magnificent, and the play an exact repro- duction of the Garden Theater. ; De Wolie Hopper’s Opera Company will make its first appearance in San Francisco under Mr. Hayman, Mrs. Hopper (formerly Edna Wallace), is one of the company, and her role will probably be that of an_in- genue. Mrs. Hopper is a San Francisco girl, and made her stage debut in the East three years ago. Marie Wainwright, who has ever been a favorite of San Francisco theater-goers, is booked for a two weeks’ engagement, and Rice’s burlesque, “1492’ is down for a holiday attraction. Stuart Robson is on the programme for a short engagement in a new production, and with a big company. - Eddie Foy will be here in “Little Robiuson. Crusoe,” and it is pronounced “the best thing he fas done.” : Tavary’s- Grand Opera Company = will visit here for two weeks in one of its last year's suceesses, and the comgany will be | strengthened by the ‘addition of several | s, notably a new barytone. | chich will present Hoy t's “A. | 1k-White Flag,” carries two carloads of | scenery in ‘its travels, and it consists of | more than fifty persons. J Sarah Bernhardt will play at the Baldwin if ‘she makes ‘an American tour. James O'Neill is iisted to play two weeks in a big scenic revival. Charles Frohman’s Em- | ire Theater stock company will alsa be'| F e again. - Augustus Pitou’s produc- tion of “Madame Sans Gene’’ will be pre- sented, ‘with Kathryn Kidder in the title role. A notable booking is that of Olga Nethersole, the English actress brought over by Augustin Daly last year. She it is who made a pronounced hit in emotional roles, among them “*Camille.”” Frederick Warde will be here again with a fine company and new scenery, and Alexander Salvini is to follow in'_ the season. - Another engaged actress is Julia | Marlowe. ' An attraction which is sure to be a success will be a big production of | De. Koven’s “Rob Roy.” “Della Fox's comic opera company will present two operas and Palmer Cox's *Brownies” will | be given by the company that made the original production in Boston. Contemporaneous with these produc- tions at the Baldwin there will be a series of the latest novelties in a lighter vein and several standard attractions at the California Theater, which is under Mr. Hayman’s management. The hoekings include Thomas Keene, Louis James, May Irwin, Rotand Reed, Hoyt’s “A Black Sheep,”” Herrmann the magician, Robert Downing, a new melo- drama by Jacob Litt, ‘A War of Wealth”; Hoyt's “Civilized Community,” in which Mrs. Hoyt will appear; a revival of “In 0ld Kentucky,” a “productivn of “Town Tonics,” the latest farce-comedy success.

Since 1881 he has taught the graduating class of St. Mary’s College. Last year he was appointed director of the Sacramento Institute, but the climate of the Capital did not agree with him.

B. Hall last evening and the situation in Ireland dis- cussed. The opinion of the members was that action must be taken to prevent the prophecy. of the London Times becoming a reality, namely: “The time isfast ap- proaching. when a Celt will be as rare on the banks of the Shaimnon asa red Indian on Manhattan, and Ireland will shortly become what nature intended, the fruitful mother of flocks and herds.to supply the English markets.” 5 5 The following resolutions were unani- mously adopted: That we favor the holding of the proposed convention of Irish societies immediately. -~ That as parliamentary means have been tried and found wanting there isnothing to do but fall back on “The simplest form of argument That injured man.can show, Is the pathos of a pikebend And the logic of a'blow.” ——————— Colonel Barry Enters a Protest.
