The little girl and boy lovers of juvenile literature, of the old fashioned sort, who daily mourn the fact that the fairies are no more, might find ground for comfort by visiting the San Francisco Shoe House to- day at 931 and 933 Market street, opposite Mason. Only day before yesterday was the new furniture received and placed in position and the profuse and pretty decora- tions so noticeable yesterday, and the im- mense throng of visitors last night, were in nonor of the formal opening. Critical men and women who have traveled a bit on both continents, pronounced the store the most beautiful they had ever seen. George E. Fairchild, the president and general manager, is certainly to be con- gratulated on the reception his efforts have met with in this City. ———————— Frank M. Palmer Dead. Frank M. Palmer of the firm of DuBary & Co., the Mumm champagne representatives in the United States, died recently in the East from blood-poisoning, arising from a small carbuncle which appeared on his foot.

PACIFIC MAIL CO’S CHANGES. Alec McLean Goes to Central America on the Schooner Una—Out of Quarantine. The American Forest Comedy Company had an exasperating experience on the front yesterday. The members were booked to appear at San Rafael in the evening and a large audience was ex- pected. From San Rafael the company was to go to Petaluma and thence by easy stages to Healdsburg. The manager failed to appear with the necessary cash and the players were stranded. Late in the even- ing the female members of the troup went to the whar! and under the supervision of an officer took away what things they actu- ally required. The trinkets and scenery were held for money aue the Stockton steamer. The steamer San Jose sailed for Panama and way ports yesterday in command of Captain Martenson. Captain Russell of the Mail Company’s packets remained ashore, and this means a change all around. On the arrival of the Rio de Janeiro from Hongkong Russell will take command, and Captain Smith will take the City of Peking, vice Ward, resigned. Captain Trask will probably resume hisold pos tion on the Peking as chief officer, and Captain Caternach, now in command of the Rio, will probably be given the City of Panama. It was thought that Chief Officer Saunders of the China would get the Rio de Janeiro, but the powers that be in the Pacific Mail Company came to the conclusion that older servants of. the cor- poration could not be overlooked. The members of the Cordelia Club had an experience last Sunday they will not forget in a hurry. They were late in leav- ing the club grounds and their steam launch Nemo was pushed to her utmost capacity to catch the train at Teal station. When half the ground had been covered the launch broke down, and the hunters were in despair. Just in the nick of time the Owl came along and hooked on to the disabled eraft. An extra spurt was put on and the belated hunters were towed in just in time to catch the last train. The officers of the Pacific Mail Company are anxiously watching for the steamer ndale. She took aboard at Yokohama the freight booked by the steamer Belgic, and according to schedule time should have been here last Sunday. Since her day of sailing nothing has been heard of her, and the agents and underwriters are beginning to wonder what is the matter. The Evandale, however, is anything but a fast steamer. She is a half-tramp, half- passenger steamer, and, therefore, cannot be expected to make as good time as the Belgic or Oceanic. Insurance men think that she may come in either to-day or to- morrow morning. The schooner Una is loaded for Central America and will probably sail to-day. Captain Hawkins is in command and will take Captain Alexander McLean as a pas- senger. The latter is well known as the commander of the sealing steamer Alex- ander. He is to take charge of the schooner Nicoline, but just what he is to do with her no one seemsto know. If it is to run arms and ammunition from Aca- pulico to some point in Salvador, Ezeta could not have chosen a better man, as Alec isdaring to recklessnessand a bold and skiliful navigator to boot. The British ship Marechal Luchet, which arrived from Japan last Sunday night, has been released from quarantine by the Board of Health. Captain Read, who is in command, is well known in_San Fran- cisco. He was here as first officer of the Dawpool, and was also chief officer of the crack Atlantic tiner G. W. Wolf. — CONCERT BY CHILOREN Little People of Tender Years Give Their Services for Charity. Helen Dodd Distinguishes Herself as a Pianist — A Baby Dancer. The children’s concert, given in the As- sociation auditorium last night, was a complete success artistically and, to judze from the large house, a very respectable sum must have been raised toward start- ing a building fund for the King’s Daugh- ters’ Home for Incurables. More than twenty little girls under 12 years of age took part in the performance, which was under the direction of Miss Ida Diserens, assisted by Miss Charlotte Ebbets and Miss Joey Low. Some of the little performers were only 4 and 5 years old and those on the shady side of ten were quite in the minority. Haydn’s “Toy” symphony, the allegro, menuetto and finale, formed the overture. It was played with remarkable grace and precision by the foilowing little girls: May Schlutler, Irene Muzzy, Iva Knowl- ton, Stella Ford, Fernanda Doria, Lucy Jordan, Winnie Moody, Florence Nach- trieb, Barbara Partmann, Edith Standart, Annie Herbst. They were conducted by Miss Diserens and accompanied by Miss Pratt. Helen Dodd, a wonderfully gifted little pianist 6 years of age, played foar different numbers during the course of the evening. In the duo for two pianos, a sonatina by Clementi, she was accompanied by Miss Diserens, and young as she was, little Helen showed a remarkable appreciation for the quaint grace of the old master's music. Her solos, all of which she played charmingly, were a “Nocturne’’ by Field, a Schumann ‘“Album Leaf” and Smith's “Shepherd Boy.~’ The Pasmore children distinguished themselves in a trio for I.iano and strings. Little Dorothy, the cellist (6 years ord hrased very artistically, and Susie showu‘] Eerse]lw be an able accompanist. Mary Pasmore, in addition to playing in the trio, also rendered well three solos, two of which were by Schubert. The other in- strumentalists, who also won warm ap- lause, were the little pianists, Elsie Cel- arius and Fernanda Doria and Paula Wolff, who played two harp solos. Theresa Ehrman showed herself to be a finished pianist for 11 years old. Stella Ford and Viola Samter were both pleasing vocalists, Maud Muller recited well and four-year-old Zeala Cook danced like an incipient Taglioni. The audience was very enthusiastic, and all the little performers had recalls and flowers. Cruatiesddamad JEWISH WOMEN. Miss Ray Frank’s Eloquent Lecture at Beethoven Hall. Miss Ray Frank, the gifted young Jewess, delivered an eloquent lecture on “Jewish Women in Fiction’ at Beethoven Hall vesterday afternoon to a large audi- ence, chiefly of her own sex. She reviewed the works of fiction, in which Jewesses were prominent, and gave glowing pictures of the Rebecca of ‘‘Ivan- hoe,” Jessica of the “Merchant of Venice,” Mirah of “Daniel Deronda” and other Jewesses in whose characters were found the rare union of strength and sweetness. The favorable impression Miss Frank has never failed to make upon her hearers was deepened by her effort of yesterday. The third lecture of the series \\'ifi be given at Beethoven Hall on Tuesday at 3:30 P M. IN A FELON'S CELL. George O’Brien, Son of a Chicago Millionaire, Awaiting Trial for Forgery. The preliminary examination of George O’Brien on the charge of forgery will be held in Judge Joachimsen’s court to-mor- row. He is accused of forging the name of J. B. Gariand of the Globe Publishing Company to a check for $10, which he passed on J. P. Langdon, a saloon-keepar. Every effort is being made by his friends to save him from punishment, but the parties interested are determined to push the case against him. O’Brien’s father is Martin O’'Brien, a Chicago capitalist, who made his fortune as proprietor of a fine art store on Wabash avenue. After graduating from college young O’Brien took up newspaper work in Chicago and was for a time attached to the staff of the Chicago Herald. Later during the World's Fair he engaged in business on his own account. He lived a fast life and his father had heavy bills to meet for his extravagant expenditures. Some rears ago his father sent him to Seattle where he engaged in newspaper work, and when the northern real-estate boom burst it left him penniless. He re- turned to Chicago and continued his gay life and finished up by eloping with an actress, which turned his father against him. The actress left him in Mexico and he arrived in this City recently almost penniless, He soon wasted all his money in drink. He declares that if convicted he will never go to the penitentiary alive. MEAT PCKERS ALARMED, May Not Be Able to Ship Goods for Foreign Ports This Season. An Order From Washington That Makes No Allowance for Californian Climate. The Marufacturers’ and Producers’ As- sociation has interested inself in a matter of great importance to California butchers and packers. Several years ago an act was passed re- quiring that all meat packed for export must be passed upon by an inspector before shipment and that the customs officers should not issue clearance papers to any vessel carrying such goods not properly inspected. This act was a dead letter until recently, when it was brought to the surface by an order from the Department of Agri- culture through the Treasury Department. By the order the customs officials were instructed to secure competent inspectors for this district and see tkat the law is enforced. The order in its present form will work a hardship upon the packers and cattle- men of the entire Pacific Coast, and in this district it is likely to canse packers a loss of about half a million doilars in foreign orders. It contemplates only the packing season of the East and not the season of the Pacific Coast. The situation is ex- plained in the following letter from Secre- tary Mead of the association to the Secre- tary of the Department of Agriculture: We are informed that there are orders for meats, for exportation, amounting to $400,000 or 500,000, now being offered to the butchers nd meat-packers of this State. These orders ceented, must be delivered in January and February. In this State meat is packed from the 1st of August until the 1st of January, and if the orders that are now being offered are taken by California packers, the meat must be packed between this and the 1st of January, and shipped after the 1st of January. But according to the instructions, and ac- cording to telegraphic advices received by Mr. Jerome, the special deputy collector of this ort, meat packed between now and the 1st of January without inspection cannot be shipped after January 1. If this order is foilowed but to the letter it means that the California packers cannot accept the orders now being oitered. In fact they cannot accept them un- less there is an extension of time from January 1 to March 1, 1896, granted to this section of the country. In addition to this, in order to give Califor- nians an opportunity to compete with other localities in the exportation of meat, the in- spectors for this district, and they should num- ber at least five or six, should be appointed at the very earliest date,’so that the cattle from whick the meat which will be packed in the next few months will be produced may be in- spected. Unless the packers of California can at least secure the privilege of shipping meat that has been packed without inspection up to the 1st of March, 1896, they will have to re- fuse to accept#he orders now being offered. Further, if this concession is to be granted in order to do the good that is hoped for, it must be granted immediately, so that the packers will know where they stand and will not unnecessarily lose time in getting to work, On behalf of the butchers and meat-packers of California I would therefore most respectfully | request that an extension of the time in which non-inspected meat may be shipped be granted up to March 1, 1896, and that the in- spectors for thi district be appointed immedi- ately if possible. Yours truly, L. R. MEAD. COMSTOCK’S ARREST. Captain Lees Knows Nothing of Him and Did Not Order His Detention. The news conveyed from New York that Charles M. Comstock of this City had been arrested there for stealing jewels valued at $6500 from Mrs. Caroline Colton Martin of Berkeley created much interest and many inquiries were made as to his connections here. Captain Lees said last evening that he knew nothing of the affair or of Comstock except by hearsay, and that the young man had not been arrested on any orders from him. He stated that he understood that a firm of attorneys, employed by Mrs. Martin to learn the whereabouts of the jewels which she had given Comstock through mis- representation, had wired to the New York authorities, and that it was probably through their efforts that he had been ap- Erehended. He knew of no steps that had een taken to bring Comstock here. TO BE A TEST CASE. Game-Dealers Charged With Selling Wild Ducks Out of Season. ‘When the case of R.K. Malcolm and Charles Campodonico, game - dealers, charged with selling a wild duck out of season by Game Warden Mogan, was called in Judge Low’s court yesterday Attorney Robinson asked for a continu- ance till Saturday, as the Attorney-Gen- eral desired to be present to prosecute the case in person. A jury had been summoned and Attor- ney Riordan, who appeared for the de- fendants, objected to a continuance, but the Judge decided against him and ordered the jurors to return on_Saturday. The defendants are determined to make the case a test one, and considerable in- terest is being manifested in the result. —————— Vitriol Throwing. Mrs, Teresa Basler, 521 Green street, was waiking out of the Grand Opera-house on the night of October 16, 1894, with a lady friend when her husband, Charles Basler, threw vitriol at her and severely burned her on the neck. She then swore out a warrantfor his arrest, but he left the City. He has now re- turned, and yesterday she swore to a new com- Emnt in Judge Campbell's court ch-rgins im with vitriol throwing, Jealousy was sai to be the cause of the act. GREATER THAN EL DORADO A Wonderful Tale of Gold Comes From the State of Nevada. GENERAL ROBERTS RETURNS. He Brings Back Information About Buckeye That Will Startle the Mining World, Some very startling mining news comes from the State of Nevada, which, if true, will result in the revival of mining in that State. General Oliver Roberts, who owns sev- eral mining claims in the vicinity of Buck- eye, a group of mines recently bought by has just returned from the district, and in conversation with & CALL reporter yester- day said : is nevertheless true that the greatest de- posit of gold-bearing ore ever known of in the United States has been discovered in Silver Lake district. I went out to the Buckeye mines and made a close examina- tion of the whole district. “I am frank to admit that since I have Messrs. Hayward and Lane for $250,000, | “It is almost impossible of belief, but it | five years ago are now holding on to their claims to see what the market brings forth. “The result of the boom is thata great deal of unprospected countrv is being worked by miners for all it is worth. The stimulus, which appears to have got a good start, is proving of ~considerable worth to Nevada, and in the spring a great many idle miners will find employment in the Silver Lake district. It would be bad policy for miners to go up there now, asthere are no cabins to speak of and little timber from which to construct them. Winter is coming on, and the man who goes there now will find it difficult to do very much substantial prospecting. I would not care to spread fictitious reports regarding the extent of the lode, and un- less a miner can afford to grubstake him- self until he finds something it would be e for him to operate there.” lis Clarke, a resident of Carson, arrived in San Francisco yesterday and corroborated the statements made by Gen- eral Roberts. He says there never seemed to be a more javorable opportunity for capital to come into Nevada than at the present time REPUBLICANS ORGANIZE. The ¥orty-Third Distiict Formed a Club of Its Own. Republicans of the Forty-third Assembly District last night formed a club under the direction of General G. W. Backus, the representative of the Republican Executive Council. General Backus called the meeting to or- | der and stated the objects of the call to be an effort to organize Republican clubs in | each Assembly district, not only in San Francisco, but throughout the entire State, to the end that a more perfect system be established, and that harmony might be | promoted in the party. | A temporary organization was effected | by choosing C. L. Bonstell president and IWILLIAH ZIRN, THE MAN WHO DISCOVERED THE GOLD IN SILVER LAKE DISIRICT. . been engaged in mining I have never seen such a magnificent proposition before. The whole country seems to be alive with gold. All of the theories of geology have been expioded and laws that mining men | have always recognized are defied. ‘‘On the property recently purchased by | Hayward and Lane the prospectsare mag- nificent. One of the best known mining men in the State told me that they had | $120,000,000 1n sight and that it would take seventy years to work 1t out. The cost of bringing water in to work the gravel will be $500,000. It is to be piped from Fish Valley Creek, on the north branch of the Carson River, near Silver King Mountain. It is by far the most wonderful mining dis- covery ever known and the probability of a thriving town springing up in the dii- trict is not to be sneered at. “Carson City, the capital of the State, has taken on a new dress and property has gone up 100 per cent. Houses that were renting for $10 now bring $20, and real es- tate is at a premium. There is a prospect for Carson to become a much larger city than any other in Nevada, and when the owners of the Buckeye mines begin work, there will be =ome lively times in ola Nevada.”” : ““What is the theory regarding the pecu- liarity of the formation?’’ was asked. “‘Well, there are several,” said the gen- eral. “Personally I am inclined to the be- lief that the richest gravel they have found is but a continuation of the lost river bed which appeared to have given out near Placerville. Itappears thatthe rich placer mines around that section petered out sud- denly as though the old river channel had been cut off and removed to some other art of the country. Perhaps that was Just what did happen. The entire surface of Nevada, near the California line, shows volcanic evidence, and it is possible that the river bed was thrown on the side of the Sierra Nevada range during some convul- sion of nature. In that event, figuring on the river bed following its known course, the other end of it would have been cast off in Nevada. Remember that isbuta theory and may amount to nothing, but it looks very much as though it was the most reasonable conclusion. i “The statement that there is $120,000,000 in sight is due to the belief that there is at least three feet of placer ore covering a great J.»onian of the 1700 acres of mineral ground. This is putting it at a low esti- mate, as the recent prospects show. In sey- eral places they have sunk shafts forty feet deep and haye not yet come to bedrock. If nucg conditions continue to develop, the country will be the most marvelous ever known in the history of mining. “‘All of the mining claimsaround the Silver Lake district have gone up in the market and are now being bonded. The Schultz and Zirn group bonded by ;Chi- cago capital is about to be bought up. Twenty-five thousand dollars was to have been paid in December and the rest in June of the following vear, but the parties purchasing have agreed to an the whole amount, $75,000, in December and take possesslon of the mines. The Monarch group has been bonded for $100,000 to cap- italists in Chicago, who are about prepar- g to close the deal. Miners who located there when the excitement began some Dr. W. J. Pierce secretary. About 100 cit- izens of the disirict signed the roll. A committee on permanent organization was | appointed consisting of G. W. Owens, R. M. Steele and D. H. Evans. The temporary organization was made the permanent organization of the club. Judge M. Cooney was introduced and in a few well-chosen remarks urged the club to be active and consistent in its organiza- tion work. NEW SCHEDULE OF FEES, The County Clerk Now Does Business Under the General Law. Very Material Changes — Graduated Rather Than Fixed Rates. Acting under the advice of his attorney County Clerk Curry yesterday began to assess fees under the general fee bill passed by the last Legislature, the special law un- der which he has acted heretofore having been declared by tbe Supreme Court un- constitutional. The changes in the fees required are very material, and while in some instances they are much reduced the Clerk is of the opinion that on the whole the treasury will be benefited, The charge heretofore for bringing suit, for instance, has been $8 50, while under the schedule of the new law it is but $6. The charge of $4 for the entry of judgment has been abolished. On the other hand the charge for filing answer and demurrer is $2, and should any additional defendant file notice of his in- tention to defend the action he is charged the sum of $1. For filing notice of motioa for a new trial the charge is $2, which is an addition to the former scheduie, as is also the charge of §1 for the issuance of a writ of execution or other order of sale of property. Under the old law the charge for affix- ing a certificate to any document was a fixed fee of 50 cents. Now the charge is 10 cents per folio. Formerly the Justice Court clerk’s fee was 50 cents. It is now 25 cents. The price for filing a remittitur is now 50 cents and every claim against an insolvent has a tax of 15 cents attached to it. In the Probate Court the fee of $3 for commencing proceedings is increased to$5, and the fixed fee of $10 at the close is made a graduated one of $1 on every $1000 over $3000 of appraised value. This schedule will of course fall heavily upon_ the big estates, while the smaller ones will come off lightly. —————— Suits for Maintenance. Robena A. White yesterday brought suit for maintenance against her husband, Charles I. White. Anunie Nlinedorth brought & similar suit against her husband Abram, WHEN DOCTORS DISAGREE The Old, Old Point on “Schools” Starts Another Con- troversy. BOARD OF HEALTH AGITATED. The Eclectics Repeat Their Demand for Permission to Visit the County Hospital. A request on the part of the California Medica! College for permission to have its students visit the City and County Hos- pital has created a lively little breeze in medical circles. The Board of Health has the power to issue these permits under certain circum- stances. Last week it laid the request of the California Medical Coliege on the table, practically shelving it, and thought the matter would drop there. But Dr. McLean of the college is bound that the matter shall not end in any such fashion. ‘When he learned of the action taken by the Board of Health, he penned two pointed notes. One of them was addressed to Mayor Sutro, and the other, which reads as follows, was addressed to the Board of Health: Gentlemen—The secretary of your board in- forms me that the petition sentto you. in ref- erence to admitting the students of the Cali fornia Medical College to the City and County Hospital, was laid on the table. This may be an expeditious wav of disposing of a mattér, but it may not be just. The con- stitution of the United States, the constitution of the State and the sentiment of the American people are_opposed to granting privileges to one class of citizens which are denied to others. 1f the students of the California Medical Col- lege will not be admitted to the City and County Hospital, you cannot expect that the students of other colleges will, and if you are prepared for that contingency I shall be satis- tied. Dr. McLean will be pained to learn that his communication_reccived the same treatment as his original request—tabled. First, however, it created a breezy little discussion, started by Mayor Sutro. Naturally enough the Mayor asked “What's the matter? Why not grant this request?”’ . 'ljhen he heard the words allopathic, homeopathic and eclectic. ; The California Medical College is an eclectic institution. L The Board of Health is made up of members of the allopathic school. A sec- tion of the code was read to the Mayor to show that the request of the college could not be granted: One each of said visiting physicians and surgeons to be nominated by the fa medical department oi the California, and one each of th cal lege of the Pacific (Cooper Medical College). The medical college of the University of California is composed of allopaths. So is the Cooper Medical College. Their students may go out to the City and County Hospital and do_pretty much as they list in the way of gaining experience, but students on homeopathic and eclectic lines well, they must go somewhere else— under the law._ All this was explained to Mayor Sutro. He shook his head dubiously, but as the doctors who explained the matter had four votes to back their opinions, he gave the matter a negative acquiescence by going on with other busine: J. P. Kincaid, inspector of school build- ings, asked permission to order the Rich- mond district school opened again. He promised all the necessary sanitary repairs should be completed in'a month. After some discussion it was agreed to allow the school to open, Tru\'iding all the contracts for repairs were let by November 5. 1n regard to the Sutro School, Superin- endent of Schools Babcock explained that the necessary sanitary repairs were being pushed as rapidly as possible. Postmaster McCoppin’s letter asking for definite information on the handling of vessels arriving here from infected ports provoked a long discussion and several resolutions. Dr. Hart moved that the resolution adopted by the Board of Health declaring Honolulu an infected port be rescinded. BDr. Wilhamson amended that, as a mat- ter of precaution, all vessels arriving in this port from Honoluln be detained across the quarantine line until the consular re- ports and bills of health have been sub- mitted and examined by the board. A communication was sent to the Super- intendent of Streets requesting him to de- tail some of his men to accompany the Health Officer in his investigation of the sewer system of the City, and that Profes- sor Davidson and Mr. Grunsky be invited to co-operate with the board and furnish the data to facilitate the investigation. One week from next Friday a special meeting of the board will be held to report on the state of the hospitals. A Teamster's Fall. Joseph Coomey, a teamster, met with a seri- ous accident in the City Hall tower yesterday. While ascending the ladder leading to the sec- ond landing ofthe tower he fell a distance of thirty feet. He was taken to the Receiving Hospital, where it was found there was a Incerated wound on his forehead and he had sustained & possible fracture of the skull. GIBSONS DRAWINGS, Decorative Effect of Pen and Ink Sketches. The original drawings of Gibson, Sterner, Renouard and a host of other pen and ink artists are in immense favor, but hard to obtain. The demands of this new fad must be satistied, and numberless artistsand amateurs haye been obliged to copy il- lustrations of the masters or create new cartoons. Forsurprises, jokes and gifts, these cartoons are very suitable and in ex- cellent taste. Prompt to realize the strength of the new craze and its peculiar require- ments, we have sought everywhere, here and in Europe, the best, the latest materials for framing these delightful bits. Mats of colors, passe-partouts of deli- cate tints were first secured—gray, ma- roon, sage green and sepia, some forty colors in all. Moldings, which for shage, color and finish have been declared ‘“‘up to date’” by popular artists, have been made specially or imported.
