A syndicate of Scotch gentlemen, repre- sented by James Bell, and challenging through the Royal Clyde Yacht Club, sent the cutter Thistle, against which the sloop Volunteer, owned by General Charles J. Paine’ of Boston, was chosen to sail. On September 27, 1887, the Volunteer won by 19 min. 233 sec. and on September 30 she beat the Thistle 11 min. 494 sec. Special interest was given to the Thistle- Volunteer contest, and the cup which had been successiully defended in 70, 71, ’76, ‘81, ’85 and 86, was saved in ’87 in-two splendid contests. Interest in the struggle of 93 against Lord Dunraven'’s Valkyrie of the Royal Yacht Squadron by the sloop Vigilant, | owned by Commodore Morgan, C: Q. Iselin and others of the New York Yacht Club, was as intense as any of the races of the past. The contest of '95, unfortunately, is not as popular as it would have been: had an accidentnot occurred at a most critical time. It CRICKET CHIRPS. Most Recent Reports From English Telegraph Boards. The feature of the rapidly waning Eng- lish cricket season seems to be the decisive nature of the victories obtained in the inter-county matches. Individual scores have fallenoff and collective scores have increased proportionately. Among the recent first-class events are the following: ‘Warwickshire beat Cheshire by 178 on the first innings; Berkshire beat Hertford- shire by an inningsand 95; Norfolk vs. Oxfordshire — a draw; M. C. C. beat Worcestershire by an innings and 25; Som- erset beat Kent by 7 wickets—in this match G. N. Roe, who was, and, I believe, is yet, champion scorer of England, played for Somerset and made 36: Surrey beat Kent by 77: Yorkshire beat Middlesex by 205; Gloucestershire beat Notts by an innings and 93, W. G.Grace contributing 119 for the vietor; Warwickshire beat Hampshire gy (i}wickets; Derbyshire beat Lancashire y 63. One of the most notable performances of the season is that of Tyler of Somerset,who in the match against Surrey took all the champion’s ten wickets in the first innings. ‘Those captious critics who know it all— who comment upon the quality of local cricket and prophesy the rapidly ap- proaching extinction of the game in Cali- fornia—were eloquently answered by the performances of both teams in the Anson benefit match on Monday last. With one or two exceptions every catch was taken and difficult fields with smart returns-were to be seen in eyery over—and this in spite of a ground much better adapted to-po- tato-raising than cricket. The batting, too, was good er.cmgk OQ The | interest the mfost” experienced spac: W. Robertson’s 86 was a masterly per- formance. It was made against timie, but ever) run was legitimately earned and no undue liberty was taken with the bowling. Hood, Moriarty, SBloman and Irwin all gave exhibitions of sound batting, playing every good ball with judgment and punish- ing the loose one without mercy. If the match did nothing else it proved that a team selected from the various clubs of the California Cricket Association will be able to hold its own against a pretty able antagonist—when he comes along. The scheduled cup matches for to-mor- row are: Pacifics vs. Bohemians at Ala- meda, and Alamedas vs, Californias at Klinkerville. Both games will commence promptly at 11 A. M. UMPIRE. — Handbali.

SAN JOSE, CAL., Sept. 13.—The marshes about Alviso and along the narrow-gauge are covered with hunters from San Franciseo and San Jose on Saturday evenings and Sundays, and just what attracts them to these grounds is unknown. The closed season for ducks and rails doeghot expire until October 15, and it is thought that the game laws are being fla- grantly violated, There are hundreds of rails about” the cloughs and the game warden should visit the marshes on a Sunday and see what kind of game the hunters are killing. The Garden City Cyclers Gun Club. an: the Olympic Gun Club of San Francisco will shoot & match on Sunday, the 29th inst. It isnot definitel led yet where the shoot will be held, but it will probably beat Murphy station. A barbecue will be given in honor of the visit- ing club. The Admi; day meet of the cyclers, while & guccess financially, was a miserable exhibi- tion of racing, and mue adverse comment s heard on all sides. The Mercury, which voices the sentiment of the city, devoted considera- ble "lmml space Thursday morning to the t said: The clubs may as well léarn now as to learn bitter experience later- on that the people ! not tolerate any such fake racing as was held at the track in this city last Monday. The character of that meet disgraced the cinbs and materially injured the fair name of the city. There were & few good races, but the leading riders made no attempt to sustain their repu- tation for speed. There was no time limit nor restriction of any kind. Nearly every alleged contest Wes a go-as-you-please, and ihe riders pleased to make as slow time as possible with- out coming to an absolute standstill. ““The people who I ad paid their money at the gate felt, and they were justified in {sel(ns- that the wheelmen had got. possession of their money under false pretenses.

THROWN FROM A STREETCAR. Death of a Ploneer—St. Mark’s New Rector Arrives—A San Pablo Avenue Wedding. BERKELEY, CaL., Sept. 13.—Much dis- cussion is now going on in the botanical department of the university, both among those instrueting in that branch of science and also among the more advanced stu- dents. The foundation of their comment is based upon the possibility that the school of botany which Professor Edward L. Greene spent so many years in developing may be changed from the systematic school which it now is to the physiologic or rather biologic. Professor Setchell, who succeeds Professor Greene as head of the department, and who will soon arrive from the East, was for a number of years con- nected with the Sheffield Scientific School ‘at Yale, where he made a_specialty of in- vestigating the physiological structure of subjects from the botanical kingdom, and hence he has grown to be what is com- monly termed a physiological botanist. His method of studying plant life accord- ingly is directly at variance with that of Professor Green, whose prominence in the list of great American botanists was due to his skill as a systema! Roughly speaking, the school of Dr. Greene may be termed the idealistic, while that of Dr. Setchell is the realistic. No instructions have been as yet received from the newly appointed professor &s to the general government and policy he will pursue, but since there seems to be such a wide differ- ence in the general methods of the two men, his arrival is awaited both by the in- structors and students with a great deal of interest and some apprehension. Another Pioneer Passes Away. J. B. Phelps, a pioneer of '48, died at his late residence on Bancroft way, yesterday afternoon,. at_the age of 85. Mr. Phelps was born at Hartford in 1810, and after thirty-eight gears’ residence there started for California in 1848, crossing the plains with a mule team. Upon arriving in Cali- fornia he at once headed for Amador County, where several years were spent 1n the gold fields. He also mined in various other parts of the State at different times. About twenty-five years ago Mr. Phelps took up his residence in San Francisco, and for the past twenty years has been an inspector in the Custom-house. Six months ago he moved to Berkeley for the benetit of his health, and during the past few weeks has been unwell, finally dying from sheer old age. Deceased leaves a wife and daughter, Mrs. Flora F. Farley. Mr. Phelps was one of the first members of the Society of California Pioneers. The remains will be taken to his old home in Amador County to-morrow, where they will be interred in the ceme- tery at Jackson. Reception to the Cl of '99. A grand reception was tendered the freshman classof the university this even- ing at Stiles, Hall, under the auspices of the College Young Women’s Christian As- sociation and the Young Men's Christian Association. About 500 guests were pres- ent, most of whom were members of the faculty and students. After an hour of social intercourse a short programme was rendered, consisting of an address of wel- come by Professor Thomas R. Bacon; re- marks in behalf of the Y. M. C. A. by Galen Fisher, '86; barytone solo, 98, Otto ‘Wedemeyer ; soprano solo, Miss Labaraque ; bass solo, C. H. Harwood, ’96; ’cello solo, Th. Hus, '98. At the conclusion of the exercises refreshments were served. This was the first general reception of the year to the incoming class, several other re- ceptions haying been held by the various town churches. Athletic Executive Committee Meets. At a meeting of the University of Cali- fornia’s athletic executive committee it was decided to give a theater party on the evening of the Thanksgiving football game with Stanford, the entire proceeds of which will be devoted to the paying off of the debt standing against the track team, which went East last spring. Professor Clapp and Captain Koch were appointed as a committee to Jook into the matter of securing a suitable standard emblem for the university athletes. It is expected that they will consider present- ing to the executive board an_embiem based on the idea of the big Y of Yale. St. Mark’s New Rector. The rector-elect of St. Mark’s Episcopal Church, George E. Swan, arrived to-night on the late overland from Indianapolis, Ind.,and will officiate forthe first time in his new field of labor next Sunday morning. Mr. Swan is an Englishman by birth, but received his clerical education in America, having graduated from the Bishop Sea- bury ’i:henlo ical Seminary in Minnesota. For a time ge was Bishop of the great cathedral in Indianapolis, after which he was given charge of the Episcopal school for girls in Indianapolis, which position he leaves to accept the rectorship of St. Mark’s in Berkeley. Mrs. Swan and ckild will join him within a few weeks. Thrown From a Streetcar. A middle-aged lady from San Francisco, whose name could not be learned was thrown violently to the ground from &n electric-car as it was crossing Shattutk avenue this afternoon. The injured lmly was taken toa drugstore,where her bruises were dressed and the mud scraped from her clothing. After a short rest she took the train for her home. '» Religious Fraud Entrapped.

His stock in trade consisted of a quantity of the cheapest grade of chromos, worth about 10 cents apiece, which he sold to the credulous for $3 each. Wedding in West Berkeley.

WIIl Next Be Divested of the Right to Sign Requlsi- tions. OARLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO Cu.t..} 908 Broadway, Sept. 13. In a short time, at the present rate of things, Mayor Davie will be to the mu- nicipality what Li Hung Chang was to the Chinese dynasty & year ‘ago—an -official bereft of power. Very gradually one office after another has been taken from ‘the Mayoral patronage and the appointment vestea in the City Council or in the Board of Public Works. Now there is very little left except the veto power and the signing of requisitions for_public supplies, and at the meeting next Monday night an ordi- nance will be passed taking the latter authority from him. A few days ago the Mayor gave notice that he was dissatisfied with the manner in_which the public departments were ordering their supplies. Large guantities were ordered that were not absolutely needed and there was no attention paid to the quality or price. In many instances the requisitions were not presented for signature until after the suughes bad been obtained and there was no check upon the amount supplied, and in every way the ;}stem is a very loose one. As soon as the ayor expressed Lis dissatisfaction with the existing conditions an ordinance was introduced taking the signing of requisi- tions out of the handsof the Mayor and giving it to the chairman of the Finance Committee. This ordinance will te vetoed by the Mayor, but will probably be passed over his veto. B ““The placing of the signing of the requi- sitions in the hands of the chairman of the Finance Committee,” said the Mayor to-day, *‘is not an action in good faith, but is an effort to rob the office of Mayor of an opportunity to see that the yuhllc treasury is not wrongly charged for goods not needed or not delivered. It will not work, and will create more confusion than there has been jn the past. The chairman of the Finance Committee is a man whose business is on the water front, and it is impossible that everybody who wauts a requisition signed can run after him, and he is not his own master but an employe, and it is not to be supposed that his em- ployers will give him two or three hours in the middle of each day to sign reqni: tions. Iam in my office from 8:30 o’clock in the morning to 5 in the evening attend- ing to the city’s business as the charter contemplated, and my_office is where.all requisitions must be signed if I can so order it.” TO SUE FATHER NUGENT. Administrator White Seeks to Recover Properties Which Belonged to Ellen Gallagher, Deceased. P. J. White, special administrator of the estate of Ellen Gallagher, through Attor- neys Henley & Costello, will commence suit in the Superior Court this morning for the recovery of certain properties now held by Father Nungent. The pertinent facts relative to this suit were told in TuE CALL some week ago. Ellen Gallagher died in April last, leav- ing the miajor portionof. an estate, valued at about $90,000, to the Catholic church. and appointing Father Nugent executor. The giit to the charch was not in the na- ture of a bequest, but was covered by a deed bearing date of September 19, 1893, acknowledged January 5, 1894, and placed on record April 11 of the current year. It is this deed that the relatives of Mrs. Gal- lagher hope to have the courts set aside, claiming that undue influence was used in securing it. It isalleged that the money obtained from the sale of the property ob- tained under the deed is now being used to build and improye certain church prop- erty. The complaint that will be placed on file this morning, after describing the property nvolved, says: | The plaintiff prays judgment against the de- fendant: First—Adjudging and decreeing in favor ot plaintiff a lien as special administrator upon said buildings and the ground upon which they are erected, for the satisfaction of all moneys belonging to sald estate which have been expended on their construction and the acquisition of the title to the land upon ! which they are buiit. That the said defendant, his agents and servants be perpetually enjoined and re- strained from proceeding any further with the | spending of any of said money which he ob- | tained as the proceeds of the sales of the said property, or obtained as rents, iamily allow- ance or otherwise, | That a receiver be appointed to take charge of, preserve and collect the assets in money of said estate pending the litigation. Beethoven was not a great reader but occasionally found pleasure in & novel. GOOD BLOOD. This is worth more to you than anything on earth, and luckily enough it is pretty easy for you to tell when your blood is out of order. If you find that you have little, tiny pimples coming out all over your skin, if you have a dull and heavy head- | ache in the morning, or if you do not sleep well, then you may at once decide that your blood needs purifying. And when you find that out there is no time to waste in speculating on the vpossible results. You want to get something that will put it right at once. For the purpose there is nothing in the world equal to JOY'S Vegetable Sarsaparilla. That has been proved thousands of times. Try a bottle and see. CONSTIPATION. Unless your bowels act regularly you cannot be in good health. That is true, no matter what any one says to the con- Itmry, and yet it is astonishing that at least one out of every two peonle you meet | suffers from this trouble. Pills and ca- thartics generally do harm rather than good. What you need is a gzood system regulator, and there is but one that can be depended on to do the work thoroughly and at all times. That is JOY'S Vegeta- ble Sarsaparilla. ‘What it has done for the people of California and this coast whose systems needed regulating is simply mar- velous—almost surpassing belief. THE HEART. If your heart palpitates whenever you in an unaccountable way, yon may be sure hat “the seat of life” is not doing its work roperly. You mneed a pure, vegetable remedy—one that has no vicious iodides, ¢r anything of that sort in it. JOY’'S Sarsaparilla is the one thing that will re- Neve you and regulate your whole system properly. | HEADACHE. Afllicted with headache, the life of any man or women is a burden instead of a bléksing, and itis not unusual for those suffer acutely from this affliction to themselves dead. But there is- no n for looking at the matter so hope- as that, for there is no doubt but headaches, no matter from what arising, can be cured by a a’ course Y’S Vegetable Sarsaparilla. [t works s, and moreover, it has never been to fail in these cases. BE CAREFUL. ight as well throw your money to winds of heaven as to accept any drugstore and ask for JOY'S Vegetabje Sarsaparilla you know what you that is JOY'S. Pay no atten- tion to the specious arguments of the man who would filch from you your good coin and give you an article about which you know nothing. And it is pretty good policy to \keep away from a man who at- tempts to rob you once. Don’t give him another clance. f NEW TO-DAY.
