THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 1895. DEL MONTE RIVALRY. The Country Club on the Verge ot Friendly War.

The dinner-hour is honored by the gen- tlemen appearing well-nigh universally in the conventional full dress, a few only of the Tuxedo coats being noticed in the great throng. The chip hat and English cap are worn indiscriminately, all other forms of headgear for gentlemen being a sure and effective bar against an entrance to the charmed circle of those who are “in the swim.” The ladies seem to prefer the delicate 1 indefinable shades of pink and pale blue or light green for evening, their cos- tumes being composed of light fabrics. An occasional white costume is shown, all the more n eable in contrast with a rare one of rich black velvet and satin, all, of se, made walking length. The pre- ng taste seems to be an increased ridance of display in this line and a rked simplicity in all forms of adorn- t. It is quite the proper form fora to carry a mammoth bouquet of roses color her fancy may suggest to the , and to preserve them for r use during her promenades about and parlors of the hotel or even unds. In the matter of roadsters and fancy the presentation here made would be hard to.surpass. Some of these coach teams would hold their own ‘anywhere. The coaches, carts, traps and many of the ages are all that could be suggested purposes used. The Country Club originated these cele- brations at this point,and to this organiza- tion may be attributed the ssocial success which has attended them thus far, but in the future there will be a great rift in the social world, where it was hoped by many the diplomats of society that this meet- ¢ might heal what of social difference had heretofore existed between certain of its elements. This feeling of difference had been grow- i all the week until Friday, when the Club proper held its annual shoo nt at the race track. The contestants and their immediate friends attended the event, but the dead cold cut was given to the entire contingent repre- club by the new and so-called >t,”” not one of whom did the just below the k a b be intentional there is no doubt, and they are able to express themselves very freely. The end not yet, and if the signsin the social horizon do not speedily change there can be but little doubt that a storm will soon arise that will disturb the structure in this part of the country. The races to-day could scarcely have been better. If any one who attended them wae not fully satisfied with the pro- gramme then he must be very hard to please. The interest, however, was such as to encourage the sport, and, in a meas- ure, to repay the gentlemen who have labored so bard and persistently to make the event a success. The weather was favorable and at an early hour in the afternoon the interest in the events became marked. The guests of the Del Monte were not slow in leaving for the track, and to these were added a large gathering from all over over the country. The attendance was fully equal to that of Thursday, and more interest was shown in the programme than on that occasion. The betting was unusually strong, and of course when one bets the interest increases proportionately to the amount wagered. The gentlemen swarmed about the pool- box, much after the fashion of men at othier points, and purchased their $5 tickets in a way that showed that it tooka very decent amount of investment to make the races interesting to them: And the ladies? Oh, yes; the ladies also invested—just enough to make it interesting, you knowA— only a stray $5, $10 or $20. And they did become interested, discussing the merits of the pretty horses and the skill of the ridel_'s, with an interest which could not be mis- taken. - Racing will become a society event if to-day’s experience be taken asanindex finger pointing to the current of event.l. The grand stand formed a very pretty pic- ture filled asit was with richly attired ladies and their escorts, while the comple- ment of this scene appeared opposite and within the circle of he racecourse, where the coaches, carts, carriages and drags were ranged in -line, filled with the leading society representatives of this coast. The first race of the afternoon was a half-mile handicap, the starters being the Del Monte stables’ Brandy; Audrey, owned by Captain Wainwright, and Pea- cock, owned by Mr. Beylard. After his winning on Thursday Brandy became a big favorite, and in this race he had a “‘cinch,” winning from the start hard held. Audrey was second, Peacock third. In the second race, one and a sixteenth miles, the Del Monte stables presented Romulus and Tigress; and Pasha of Rick- shaw stables, Bernardo, Raindrop and Hello, well known to lovers of the course, started. Atthefallof the flag Tigress took the lead, Bernardo second, They ran well bunched up to the three-quarter pole, when Bernardo, well ridden by Joe McCarty, took the lead and won handily from Tigress. Romulus, with Whittier up, was left at the post. Then came a match between Baldwin's Frondeur and Hobart’s Sallle M, distance five-eighths of a mile. To an even break Sallie M took the lead, Hobart tarning wide in the stretch, carrying Baldwin out and coming in handily. Baldwin rode with very poor judgment. He could have | taken the lead at the head of the stretch and, no doubt, have won the race. In the next event four entries were scratched, leaving five to face the starter. To an even break Hobart, on Fusilade, took the lead. Finesse, well ridden by Whittier, collared him at the half-mile post and won easily. Mr. Whittier lost one stirrup at the start, and rode the race remarkably well under difficulties. Ger- onimo was third. The betting was about even money, with Finesse the favorite. The fourth race was a two-mile steeple- chase, handicap, and proved the most in- teresting not only of the day but also of the entire meet. The race was between three good horses—Mestor, Ali Baba and | Guadaloupe, Barcaldine being scratched | at the last moment. Guadaloupe led by | courtesy for a mile and a half when the | race wason. At the head of the stretch it | looked Ali Baba, but Mestor, ridden and | placed with excellent judgment by Hen- | nesy, won out by a length and a half easily. This makes the second winning | for Mestor here, and good judges say it would take a good horse to beat him in a | two-mile race. The sixth and last race of the day, which was a mile and a half steeplechase, was won handily by Doc Tevis. After the runaway of this mount on Thursday he was well thought of by the talent here for this race, especially as Hobart's special jockey (Mara) was up. It was predicted that he would win hands down. At the fall of the flag he took the lead and was never troubled, winning by three lengths or more from Li Hung Chang. Gaiety Girl finished a very ‘tired third. About $5000 changed hands in the betting ring. To-night the grand ball of the occasion is in full swing, The hotel presenis an animated scene as the throng of merry- makers surges through the halls or prome- nades on the verandas and through the beautifully illuminated grounds. SAN BERNARDINOU’'S FORGER. A Confidence Man Who Works on an Ewxtensive Scale. SAN BERNARDINO, CaAw., Aug. 81— The clever forger who succeeded in pass- ing two bogus checks on a couple of San Bernardino merchants by using a leading business man’s name as a bait was evi- dently prepared to reap a harvest in this portion of the State. This afternoon a number of torn checks were found a few miles south of the city on the road to Colton. Many were filled oui with the names of business men of Colton, Pomona, Redlands, Riverside and S8an Bernardino. Most of the checks were on the San Ber- nardino National Bank and the Orange- growers’ Bank of Riverside. Along with the checks on common note paper was a list of names of businzss men from South- ern California points. After working two firms in this city the man went to Colton, where he spent money quite freely in the saloons. From there, it is thought, he went to Riverside. Heis evidently well posted on the places he works, as he picks out a leading man and then sends letters with checks by a boy to a firm with whom he knows his man has a good standing. He selects the nighttime for his work, claiming in his letters that he needs the money very badly. S Los Angeles-Milford Line. LOS ANGELES, CAL, Aug. 31.—The rumors in regard to the Nevada Southern road have had the effect of stirring up the Terminal Railway. Two corps of surveyors have been put in the field to select the best possible route to form a connection with Milford, Utah, the south- ern terminus of the Utah Southern Rail- road. . Hold-Up at Sacramento. SACRAMENTO, Cjr., Aug. 8l.—An electric car was held up by highwaymen at Twenty-eighth and Y streets to-night and the conductor was forced to give up $17 75, all the money he had. There is no clew to the identity of the robbers. NG ——aaaaaT PACIFIC COAST NEWS, Escape of a Bandit From the Eureka Jail. RUSSELL'S CLEVER RUSE. Placed a Dummy on His Cot, While He Remained in the Corridor. SECOND BREAK FOR LIBERTY. Notorious Crook Who of Late Had Devoted His Time to Purloin- ing Bicycles. EUREKA, CAL., Aug. 31.—Russell, alias Ferrin, alias Moran, bicycle bandit, burg- lar and all-around crook, made another dash for liberty this morning, completely outwitting Under Sheriff Ferrill and Deputy Sheriff Brown. Russell yesteraay took out the gas- burners near his cell, and when the Depu- ties came to lock up last night there was little light. A dummy with bis “sweater’ on had been placed in the cell cot and Russell had climbed on to the grating above the cell. When the officers ap- proached, the door of Russell’s cell was pulled to by an attached string, while the dangling of his boots upon the floor made it appear that he was walking within, As soon as the officer who unlocked in the morning was at the further end of the room, Russell quietly slipped down, stole out of the jail door and disappeared through the Sheri window, carrying with him a fifteen-pound Oregon boot. . An alarm was given that all the prison- ers were escaping, and the doors were quickly barred, locking within with the prisoners a barmless plumber’s apprentice who had come to repair the gas fixtures. Searchers spread out over the surrounding country, but the escape had disappeared, and not the slightest trace of him has been found. i This is Russell’s second break from jail in this county, and he is wanted in Madera for bicycle stealing and jail-breaking. About a month ago Russell was arrested while making his way toward the county line with two stolen bicycles. These were not the only wheels Russell had made away with, for two others were traced to his door. On the morning of his examination, Rus- sell neatly gave Constable Brown the slip, and then started on his bandit career. For eight days he avoided his pursuers, and his appearance in any section was followed by reports of bold robberies and hold-ups. After robbing Jim Martin’s cabin Rus- sell met the offiers before daybreak. Upon his refusal to halt they fired a harmless volley after him as he disappeared in the brush. A horse stolen from William How- ells took Russell away from . his pursuers, and it was not until several days later that he was captured, while endeavoring to get ameal. Every one supposed that Rus- sell’s wanderings were over when he was lodged in the County Jail, and great was the surprise when his clever escape was re- ported at 8 o’clock this morning. DIVORCED AT SAN DIEGO. Mrs. Clifton E. Mayne to Resume Her Maiden Name. SAN DIEGO, Carn., Aug. 8l.—Judge Pierce to-day granted a divorce to Zilla Mayne from Clifton E. Mayne on the ground {of cruelty. The only witnesses were Mrs. Mayne and her attorney, W. J. Murphy, who was formerly attorney for Mayne, There was no attempt to prove infidelity and there seemed to be an agreement be- tween the attorneys to avoid any reference to charges of that kind, as being liable to rejudice the case now pending against ayne at Los Angeles. though an at- no defense I‘Ey and no At the conclusion of the trial Jud, Pierce ;nnteq the decree, restoring the plaintiff’s maiden name of Zilla D mouriez and nting her mony of $30,000. This sum the piaintiff is alleged to have loaned to Mayne in cash since their marriage, and though Mayne is reported to be almost penniless the judg- ment will stand against him for the amount. L 1) UZTAH WOMEN NOT TO VOTE. Decision of the Supreme Court ow the Suffrage Question. SALT LAKE CITY, Uram, Aug. 31.— The Territorial Supreme Court to-day handed down its decision on the woman’s suffrage question, holding that only male citizens are entitled to vote on the adop- tion or rejection of the State constitution and for the first State office. The basis for this decision, as stated by the court, was that the Edmunds-Tucker act, which disfranchised women in the Territory of Utah, is still in force and ap- plicable until it is repealed or the Terri- tory actually becomes a State, Chief Jus- tice Merritt (Democrat) and Associate Justice Bartsch (Republican) agreeing in that view. Associate Justice King, a Democrat, de- livered a dissenting opinion, holding that the enabling act by implication repealed the provision of the’ Edmunds-Tucker act, and that women were entitled to vote on tl&; constitution and for the first State office. —_—— FIRE AT SANTA MONICA. The St. James Hotel Burned to the &rnyer for ali- SANTA MONICA, CarL., Aug.3L—The 8t. James Hotel was destroyed by fire this morning. Flames broke out this morning at 2 o'clock in aroom over the kitchen, and soon the entire structure was a mass of flames. The tire department could do nothing to save the structure, but prevented a spreaa of the fire to adjoining buildings, and saved the baggage of the guests, all of whom, with the servants, got out without any accident. 'he cause of the fire was a defective flue. The loss to furniture and personal prop- erty of Mr. Tucker is $1500; insurance $400; to building $4000; insurance $3500. uy Mosaze P —— ‘f"g; A UTIE A% WooDWARDS MNEDAVS 7 Ty Banos SuooTs o0y THe BIRD.

The Pacific Coast Medical Council, 930 Market Street, Who Will Give Their Services for the Next Thirty Days Free to All. Commencing Monday, September 2, and Continuing Every Day This Month Until Saturday, September 28, at 8 P. M., During Which Time Dr. A. H. Bryant Will Give Consultation, Ad- vice, Examination and Treatment for a Full Month Free of Charge—Surely This Is a Golden Opportunity. IOR THE PURPOSE OF EXTENDING THEIR already WORLD-WIDE POPULARITY, and with a desire to consent to the many earnest requests made from time to time by the friends and admirers of this progressive system, Dr. Bryant will give to all those holding appointe ments as well as all others who call THIS MONTH ONLY, and who desire CONSULTA- TION, ADVICE, EXAMINATION AND TREAT- MENT FOR AN ENTIRE MONTH FREE OF CHARGE, thus giving sufferers from all forms of CHRONIC DISEASES personal attention, and thereby all the advantages of this new sys- tem, which has worked such marvelous cures in San Francisco end surrounding country. Although the time and expense to him in giv- ing this FREE TREATMENT will cost him at least Five Thousand Dollars yet he feels the number he will treat will be so large, the cures he will make so varied, the good he will do will cover so large a field, that the advertisement will be double what could be obtained by the expenditure of $10,000 in any other way. He also hopes to bring to the notice of all invalids his MAGNETIC INSTITUTE at 930 Market street, as well as his especial system of prace tice. All he asks in return is that every patient 8o treated will appoint themselves a committee of one to state to all their friends the results obtained in their individual cases by the HU- MAN MAGNETS. So the rich and poor may come daily from 10 A. M.tol,and 2to 4 P. M. and 7 to 8 evenings for the entire month as above. Dr. Bryant treats all female troubles by the German method, which does away with all speculum examinations, rings, pessaries and local treatment. He also desires to impress upon all men who are suffering from the errors of youth that he is the sole importer of the justly celebrdted Hindoo remedy, so well and favorably known in the Old World as the ANTI-AGNECHAL TABLOID METHOD. fle will guarantee an absolute cure in all cases taken. All desiring to test this system will have such an opportunity to receive treatment for thirty days free of charge, providing they call at 930 Market street this month only. Dr. Bryant earnestly invites you to come, see and examine for yourself his institution, ad- vantages, appliances and success in curing the chronic ailments of suffering humanity. His patients are numbered from all parts of the world, and so remarkable has been his sue~ cess that we pause in wonder at the superior qualifications of the physician who can, FROM A STRICTLY SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE OF THE STRUCTURE OF MAN,. TELL DISEASE AT A GLANCE, WITHOUT ASKING ANY QUESTIONS, LOOKING AT THE TONGUE OR FEELING THE PULSE. No explanation is necessary from the patient, no previous knowledge of the case. Every ache, pain and disagreeable feeling pointed out and described better than the patients can themselves. He locates, describes, understands and explains disease at a glance, historizes its incipiency, progress and termination. Teach~ ing in his consultation the patients’ inherent power over all their weaknesses and debilities which lead to all the various diseases incident to their nature, gives the proper remedy and course of treatment necessary to a perfect and permanent cure. No person should doctor any longer or take any more medicine before consulting him. Not only will they be surprised at his wonderful knowledge of disease, his plain, concise ex- planation of every cause and effect, but at the rapidity with which he relieves and cures the most obstinate diseases by his very progressive system, the only system by the aid of which, coupled with his knowledge of the structure of man and his experience with the peculiarities of disease and its action upon the functions of the body, so demonstrates to the patients whose lives are endangered the real cause of their troubles, and points to an absolute relief and cure. 3 cylby They not only treat the blind, lame and erip pled, but all diseases quickly yield to their strange power. Catarrh, incipient consump- tion, chronic bronchitis, chronic diarrhea, neuralgia, nervous vprostration, aiabetes, Bright's disease, epilepsy or fits. tumors in all conditions, diseases of a delicate nature, dis- eased bone, hip disease, deafness, heart dis- ease. bladder disorders, hemorrhoids or piles, chronic rheumatism, obstinate constipation, diseases of women, cataract of eyes, cancer, sciatica. paralysis, fistula, asthma, liver come plaint, kidney troubles, scrofula, gravel, throat aisorders, impotency, and, in fact, all diseases yield to animal magnetism in the hands of these famous Magnetists. HIS CREDENTIALS. Dr. Bryant graduated with honor in New York City,and has been a careful studentof homeopathy, eclecticism and all the progres- sive schools of medicine. After an extended tour through Europe he visited nearly all the colleges and hospitals in London ana Paris, Edinburgh and Dublin, where the best ad- vantages could be obtained for his chosen field of labor. While abroad he was unani- mouslv elected & member of the Royal So cietv of Science. Letters and Art of London,* England, which was an especial compliment for his acquired ability in his profession. With these credentials, together with twenty years among the varied classes of chronio diseases with which his great practice has constantlv surroundea him, he is justly enti- tled to the eminent position he has for so long held in the medical world as an expert specials ist in chronic diseases. He has g NMORE CAPITAL INVESTED, MORE PATIENTS TREATED, MORE CURES MADE, Than Any Similar Institution or Body of Physicians in America.
