Great Improvements on the Ocean Beach and Almshouse High- ways Contemplated. The San Francisco Boulevard and Driv- ing Association was formed last evening in the parlor of the Baldwin Hotel. Itis composed of gentlemen who are interested in obtaining and maintaining good streets aud driveways in and about the City. It | is surprising how many were interested in this movement. The room was filled to the doors, and nearly every man is the | owner of or interestea in good horses or | fine carriages. The greatest enthusiasm prevailed, and the business was transacted | with a snap that denotes purpose and de- termination. At the preliminary meeting Monday evening a committee was appointed to give the organization a name and frame constitution. Last evening the committee presented the name stated, which was adoped. The constitution was also adopted and signed by the charter members, It set forth that the association is to | originate and aid measures for putting driveways in the best possible order, rec- ommend legislation and municipal meas- | ures for the improvement of existing roads and building new drives, and to assist the proper ofticials in seeing that_the street and road laws are observed. The follow- ing officers were elected: President, Charles C. Bemis; vice-president, C. S. Crittenden; Treasurer, Charles Hugg; sec- | retary, Joseph Magner; board of directors, i C. Bemis, Charles l‘.iu;"—"'.“ alter H. Hobart, John McCord, Con O’Connor, J. W. Murphy, Major R, P. Hammond, Colonel W. Little, S. Seymour, James Hurst, Henry J. Crocker, Grove P. Ayre, James O’Kane and Joseph Magner. The ofticers are to hold and are (o pass upon the eligibility of all applicants for membership. A committee, consisting of J. McCord, C. 8. Crittenden, R. P. Hammond, Con O’Connor and Colonel Little, was. ap- pointed to visit the Street Committee of the Supervisors this morning and explain the aims and objects of the association. | The committee will ask the Supervisors assistance and co-operation in the follow- ing improvements. Improvement of the Almshouse road and which will consist of widening the road. way and giving it a proper grade; also the improvement of the park entrance of seventh avenue, which is now covered with I navle grade. In this respect much opposition is expeted irom the Spring Valley Water Company, which has its large mains laid and claims that great expense will attach to a change in the grade. A large amount of improve- ments will be asked for on the Ocean House road and the Ocean House Park boulevard. It is desired that roper connections of these roads be made. Much of the work can be done by the con- victs in the House of Correction’if proper guards can be obtained. e ——— F¥avoring Home Industries. Several days ago the secretary of the Manu- facturers’ and Producers’ Association wrote to Mayor Sutro, requesting that he order the in- terior furnishings and the bar fixtures for the new Cjiff House from California manufacturers instead of sending East for them. Yesterday the Mayor sent an answer to the effect that he had nothing to do with that part of the busi- ness, which is in tae hands of J. H. Wilkins. The ' secretary at once sent & letter to Mr. Wilkins making the same requestof him as was made of Mayor Sutro. A similar letter was sent to Christan de Guigne, who has charge of the finishing and furnishing of the big Parrot building. zame on this coast | office for one year | its approaches, | EASTERN HORSES COMING, A Special Train of Thorough- breds for the Ingleside Racetrack. FIVE HUNDRED STALLS FULL. ‘ | The Pacific Coast Jockey Club’s Build- ings Are Ready for the Great Opening. The many Eastern horsemen who have made arrangements with the Pacific Coast Jockey Club to race their horsesat the Ingleside track in this City are busy nowa- days with preparations for moving their stables to San Francisco. A special train will leave Chicago on or about November 9 with fast horses repre- senting various breeds and stables, all bound for the Pacific Coast Jockey Club track at Ingleside. There will be eight cars in this remarkable train—‘“palace horse cars”—with padded stalls and better accommodations for the valuable steeds than for the grooms. Then A. G. Blakeley | will arrive here within a week with his string of steeplechase and hurdle horses. E. J. Baldwin’s string isalready on the | way, and it appears now as if the next two | weeks will see_great activity at Ingleside, | accompanied by the neighing of spirited horses and the patter of their hoofs on the | new track. | Up to yesterday avplications for 490 | stalls were made to the club. H. W. | Laugenour of the Terrace stable has se- cured nine stalls; W. L. Appleby, P, J. | Donahue and George B. McAnerny ten stalls; Oakland stables, including E. F. Smith and J. G. Follansbee, six; 0. Ap- pleby, six; Elkton stable, including Charles Simpson, F. Van Necs and J. Ramsdell, thirteen; A.B. Gonzales, three; A. P. Miller, four: Bonnifield & Knight, four; William Dixon, four; Owens Broth- ers, six; W. C. de Lopez of Livermore, Australian horses, seven; Kerr & Ward, | | six: Shaner & Burlngame, eight; Pleas. | anton stable, including J. Talbot Clifton and D. J. McCarthy’s horses, fourteen; Rancho del Sierra stables, Theo Winters, Woodlawn _stable, Matt Storn, nine: Hoag & Little, five; Lone stable, including ‘William Murray and J. E. Terry of S mento and Thomas Lundy, twent; Abraham, seven; A. B. Spreckels, twenty- two; Del Monte stable, including H. H Hunn and W. S. Hobart, twenty-two; Santa Anita stables, E. J. Balawin, twenty- five; she, seven; Burns & Water- house, thirt: The Eastern horsemen who have ap- | plied for stalls and secured the required ac- commodations for their horses represent the leading element in horseracing be- yond the Rockies. Louis Ezell of Chicago has engaged 17 stalls: White & Clarke, Chicago, 5; Marcus Daly’s string, under the manacement of W. D. Randall, will have17 stalis; J. G. B 11; John Bren W. -} nock, Chicago, 7 for his jump- ers: W. J. Speirs, St. Louis, 15; Frank Phillips, Chicago, 8; J. H. Shields & Co., Chicago, 5; Barney Schreiber, St. Louis, 30; John Robbins, Chicago, 12; C. F. San. ders, Chicago, 7; 1d Corrigan has engaged 30 stalls for his string. Although there are 19 stable buildings now completed at the Ingleside track, | with accommodation for 580 horses, each | in a separate stall, the board of directors | finds_itself confronted with an urgent de- | mand for still more stable room. To con- | sider this question, which has arisen from | the overwhelming 'success of the Pacific Coast Jockey Club’s venture, the board will meet to-morrow in the Palace Hotel. | It is believed that tke result of this meet- ‘ing will be an order for 170 new stalls for Eastern horses, to be built immediately. | The track will open November 16 with a dazzling card and_under very favorable auspices. The buildings are practically | the painting, which, fract, must be fi | The track, stables are ready for according to con- ished Saturday night. and grand stand, etc., use. By a peculiar com- bination of color the long rows of stables | have been given a picturesque and an odd appearance, the roofs being painted red, | the walls slate color and each having a letter from A to Z, six feet high, in white. As a whole the buildings are symmetrical and pleasing to the eye. The railroad company has been rushing work on its branch to Ingleside, with 100 teams and track. Trains from Thira and Townsend streets will run to the edge of the track, whence a covered walk will lead to the | grand stand, so that passengers may be | protected from inclemency of the weather. The construction of a carriage-house, or shed, near the track fence, to accommo- | date 100 vebicles, was begun this week. : THE BICYCLE ORDINNCE The Special Committee of San Francisco Wheelmen Draft a Law. | iSpeed, Lights, Bells and Penalties for Transgressions Duly Con- sidered. A week or so agoa committee consist- | ing of L. R. Ellert, C. A. Adams, Judge F. H. Kerrigan, Henry Wynne and Joseph F. Coffey was appointed to represent the prin- cipal bicycle leagues and clubs of this city | for the purpose of drawing up a suitable ordinance to regulste and govern the use of bicycles in the public streets. Last evening the committee met and after con- | siderable discussion indorsed the annexed | draft of an ordinance prepared by Mr. ;‘ Coffey : | Section 1. No person shall immoderately, carelessly or negligently ride or. drive a bi. cycle, bicycle tandem, or other vehicle or ma- | chine of a similar character upon or along any public street or highway within the City and County, or ata rate of speed faster than seven (7) miles per hour over or upon any street crossing within that Bor!ioh of the City and County lying east of Devisadero street, north { of Thirteenth street (formerly Ridley), and east ot Guerrero from Thirteenth street (for- | merly Ridley street) to Twentieth street, and | lying north of Twentieth sireet from Guerrero | street to the waters of the bay. | Sec.2. No person shall ride or drive a bicy- cle. bicycie tandem or other vehicle ormachine of a similar character on any street in the City | and County between half an hour after sun- | set and one hour before sunrise without having atteched thereto and in front thereof a lighted lamp in good order and condition, or at the option of the rider, abell or a warning whistle, which must be sounded while passing over a street crossing. Sec. 3. No person shall ride or drive a bicy- cle, bicycle tandem or other vehicle or machine of & similar character upon or along the side- walk of any public street or highway within the City and County. Sec. 4. No person riding or drivinga bicy- cle, bicycle tandem or other vehicle or machine of the ‘similar character sha!l carry on the same upon or along the streets, highways or public grounds of this City and County any child under the age of six years. Sec. 5. Any person violaiing the provisions of this order shall be guilty of & misdemeanor and be punished by a fine not exceeding £500 or imprisonment in the County Jail of this City and County not exceeding six months, or by both such fine and imprisonment. The ordinance was placed in the hands rown & Co., Chicago, | completed in every particular, excepting | men making a fill_near the | of Supervisor Hirsch, who will endeavor to have it passed by the Board of Super- visors. 4 It was intended for the committee to draft a similar ordinance to regulate the use of wheels in Goiden Gate Park, but the plan was changed and Mr. gliert and Su: pervisor Hirsch were appointed to call upon the Park Commis: views and wishes. This committee will report back to the main committee next week. BARNEY FARLEYE UPPERCUT. He Knocked Out a Man Who Flung a Weight at His Head. “I can whip any man of my age and inches in this world,” said old Barney Farley yesterday, after relating an inci- dent which came very near costing him his hfe. It appears that a few days ago a man en- tered Farley’s hostelry, which is situated on the Ocean House road, and challenged the old Trojan to play him a game of shuffle-board, which defi was quickly ac cepted. Farley, who is an expert at the game. allowed his opponent to run upa very promising score, and then, when the stranger thought that he had the old pu- gilist_cornered, Farley settled down to scientific playing, and, in the language of the shuffler, he ran the game out on the invader. The defeated sport grew angry, and when Farley had turned his back upon him he flung a weight at the once famous pugilist, which passed within an inch of the latter's head and went flying through a mirror that was hanging on the wall. As the murderously intent stranger had reached for another weight, Farley had him by the coat col and a rough-and- tumble fight ensued. The a_i;ed pugilist had much the better of the mili, knocking his young and able antagonist on his back with a nose broken, the result of a good right-hand uppercut. Farley is to-.day the proudest resident of Ocean View. SN JOSES VICTORIOUS, ESan Franciscos Meet With De- i feat in the Central Park Diamond. A Good Game Is Played With a Nine to Six Score for the Visitors. The San Franciscos went down before the San Joses yesterday at Central Park by | a score of 6 to 9, with the last half of the | ninth inning unplayed. There was noth- ing particularly brilliant about the game, but there were two good double plays and a good catch against the left-field fence by McBride. In the first inning Riley of the San Fran- | ciscos was out on first. Lally was givena | base on balls, and Frank hit to Daniels. | Lally stole second and scored on Bolan’s | error, Frank coming to third and home on | Straus’ hit to short. Sweeney was out on irst. Then McBride, for San Joses, hit out over the sheds for two bases. Weaver se- cured a base on balls, Niles followed suit, advancing McBride to third, and McBride and Weaver scored on Twitchell’s hit, which struck the umpire by the pitcher's box and glanced past short. In the second inning the San Franciscos | did nothing, but the San Joses added two | runs to their score_by Weaver's home run, | which brought in McBride, who got to first | on four balls. In the fourth inning the first double play | occurred, in which Sweeney flew out to Holiingsworth, and Straus, on first, was | put out before he.could return to his base. | The other double play occurred in the | sixth inning, when Straus flew to Mec- Bride, and Werrick, who was on first, was | touched out by Hollingsworth. | Fraser pitched a good game, although he was a little wild at first. In the eighth inning he btruck three men our, and he | held the San Jose team down to seven base hits. Daniels also put up a good game, but he was hit much oftener than Fraser, though not always for a base. To- day Fisher will pitch for the San Joses and Harper will hold down the box for San Francisco. The official score is as follows: A.B. R. B.H. 5.B. P.O. A.

A Gambler Arrested for Grand Larceny in Using a Ring With a Glass Reflector. John Sherwood, alias D. S. Hyde, was arrested last night on the charge of grand larceny. The complaining witness was R. Schrensky, who conducts a poker game at 317 Drumm street. Sherwood had been visiting Schrensky's place and won about $1000 from other patrons. On October 12 Schrensky was ap- proached by a friend of Sherwood’s, who suggested they should combine to relieve Sherwood of "his money. The friend was to stand behind Sherwood’s chair and signal to Schrensky what cards he had in his hand. Schrensky agreed to the plot, and they went to Sherwood’s room at 231 O'Farrell street. They played studhorse poker for an hour or so, but Schrensky lost steadily till he had dropped $55. Then he refused to play any more. He became suspicious, as when he had a good hand Sherwood would never ‘call’”’ him, but when he tried on a bluff Sherwood always raised him and won. Schrensky learned later that Sherwood wore a_thick gold ring with a glass re- flector in it so that in dealing out the cards he could tell the denomination of each. Heimmediately notified the police and at their suggestion swore out a war- rant for Sherwood’s arrest. When Sher- wood was taken to the City Prison the ring was found on his little finger, and it wilfbe used in evidence against him. ——————— To Remove Directors, In the case of Theodore Fox vs. the newly elected directors of the Consolidated California and Virginia Mining Comvany, an order has been issued demanding that defendants on November 7 show cause why they should not bedre;%?"d from office and a new election order oners and obtain their | First base on | THE BAY DISTRICT RACES | Flirtilla at Odds On Placed the Vestal Stakes to Her Credit. LADY GRAY FIRST AT 50 TO 1. Little Cripple Took a Handicap, De- feating Charmer and the Hot Fa- vorite McLight. | Triumph punlled up very lame at the con- clusion of the first race. Tod Sloane wili be seen in the saddle again to-day. Starter Ferguson wes prevailed upon to 1ift his suspension. Cash Sloane will be seen in the saddle for the first time at the meeting to-day. One of his mounts will be the gray horse Sir Richard. — Agitato, who went to the post equal favorite with Eimer F in the last race, broke down. But for this mishap he would undoubtedly have won. Ollie Johnson, the owner of Three Forks, who finished such a close second to Gold Bug, was fined $5 by the judges for not having his horse in the saddling paddock when the sad- dling bell rung. Mr. A. B. Spreckels has purchased of M. Kerr the ch estnut horse Road Runmer at pri- vate terms. He should prove a very useful horse this coming winter, as he has a great fondness for muddy going. The jockeys engaged to ride in the different races are now compelled to stay in the room provided for them and are no longer seen skirmishing around the paddock and betting ring. Persons having any business to transact with any one of the boys can see them by ask- ing permission, but a close wateh will be kept on the bookmakers’ outside men, who arc apt to make some very tempting proposals in the way of cigars, fruit, ete. To all appeerances the stewards are ex- periencing considerable trouble in deciaing as to the innocence or guilt of Jockey Chevalier of the charge preferred against him of pulling the horse Ransom in & race to the pecuniary benefit of his guardian, Dow Williame, who, Mr. Stein claimed, was interested in the book- making firm of Cook & Co. The matter came up at & meeting last evening, but no decision was reached on account of the absence of an important witness. The Vestal stakes for three-year-old fil- lies, one mile and a quarter, was the special feature at the track yesterday. Like most of the stakes created by the old Pacific Coast Bloodhorse Association, it resulted in a very tame exhibition of speed and stamina. Although unfortunate in many handicaps, Flirtilla, the game little daughter of the dead Peel, seems to be par- ticularly fortunate in stake events. She defeated the odds on favorite Flashlight in the Derby, andin yesterday’srace, starting al to 4 choice in the betting, had but to | defeat Umma and Bravura to place $300 wore to the credit of her owner. This she did very handily, covering the distance in 2:13, a very slow performance. The lum- bering Umma managed to down Bravura | for second money. Of the other five events favorites cap- tured but one, Moss Terry taking the sec- | ond race and scoring the’ first win at the meeting for the Terrace stable. The first race of the day, a five-furlong dash for maidens, resulted in a big sur- prise. Lady Gray, neglected at 50 to 1, ridden by Rowan, showed in front when the flag sent the ten starters away and was never headed, winning by three lengths from San Marcus, the 11 to 5 favorite, who was away poorly. The next race at five and a half furlongs, | with light welter-weights up, went to the 214 to 1 favorite, Moss Terry, who was | away from the post first, and with the ex- ception of a quarter of a mile before strik- ing the stretch, when Perhaps headea him, was always in front, ana won, ridden out, | a length’ before Miss Pollard, who came | fast at the finish and nipped second place | from Oregon Eclipse. The fourth race was a similar affair un- der like weights and conditions. Billy | McClosky, the two-year-old, was an 8tob ‘, favorite, but finisbed outside of the money. Rey Alta, a 15 to 1l chance, headed the | procession into _the stretch witb a danger- | ous looking lead, but quit badly and was | passed by the second choice, Gold Bug, i who won by a neck in a drive from Three | Forks. Crawford was an ordinary third. The heavy bettors all considered Me- Lighta ‘‘pipe’”’ for the mile and seventy- yard handicap, with but three starters, and lunged on him at odds of 9to 10. Against Pateis Crinple 3 to 2 was the prevailing odds with Charmer, the light-weight of the trio, at sixes. The outcome proved disastrous. Charmer led until straightened away in the stretch for home, when Little Cripple went to the front and won easily by two lengths, with Charmer a neck in front of the favorite. Time, 1:453, a very ordinary performance. The last race resulted in another over- throw for the talent. Agitato opened a 6 to 5 favorite, receding later in the betting to9to 5. Elmer, who opened at threes, was backed down to the same odds. Faro, an outsider, led the field to the stretch, at which point Elmer F was second and Agi- tato third. The former horse looked to have the race won until a sixteenth from the wire, when Ransom came through next the rail and beat him out handily by two lengths in 1: . Agitato finished third. The post betting against the win- ner was 5 to 1. Thirty - fourth day, Wednesday, October 30.— Weather fine; track fast. 169, FIRST RACK_Eive furlongs: « maidens; parse §260.

The directors of the Olympic Club post- poned the meeting which was to have taken place last evening uniil next Wednesday. The ladies of the annex, who heretofore had only the privilege of the gymnasium in which to exercise, have been given an opportunity of exer- cising in any of the departments of the club. The ladies are delighted with the change and will now enjoy the pleasures accruing from natatorial exercises, bowl- ing and possibly rackets. Superintendent Kennedy says that he would not be at all surprised to hear of the ladies taking kindly to handball as an exercige through which much pleasure is derived. He contends that handball is not as severe a game as lawn_tennis and will eventually become a favorite pastime of the young ladies of athletic proclivities, “Theén there is fencing, a most polished system of exercise, which, no doubt, will be a feature of amusement which the young ladies will certainly enjoy, once they become conversant with the rules that govern this great Parisian pastime,” concluded Mr. Kennedy, as he wiped his diomond-mounted eyegiasses with a Chi- nese silk handkerchief—a stroke of relief as it were. In the past it was the custom of the club to give a ‘“ladies’ night” occasionally. This feature has been done away with to sowre extent, and instead of a ladies’ night the entertainments will be known as “gen- eral athletic nights,” when various fea- tures of sport will be introduced, including swimming, gymnastics, boxing, wrestling, etc. The idea of this change is to give the large numbers of spectators who attend the entertainments an opportunity of see- ing divers kinds of indoor athletics. -~ Hawthorne Entertainment. The Hawthorne Society will give an enter- tainment to-morrow evening in the Y. Auditorium. Miss Helen Kelleher will give a dramatic reading on Shakespeare, Dickens and Du Maurier, and there will be incidental vocal music pertinent to the authors, under the direction of Alfred Wilkie.
