THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1895. slcughs of the marshes, where they remain ov x:rl night and return at early morning to the bay, This has been the programme carried out by the ducks for some weeks past, but with ‘a change in the weather the game will remain inland and good sport for the hunter is certain to follow. Canvasback are very plentiful for this year and some of the local sportsmen, who understand the topography of the marshes and the peculiarity of the *‘cans,’”” have h: some excellent shooting recently. Bruns and Kearney, the champion duck stoppers of the Sonoma marshes, succeeded in making a_great bag last Sunday at the mouth of Midshipmans Slough. Their combined strings numbered eighty birds, fifty of which were canvasbac The W 1 s brothers did not do as well as they expected, as a market-hunter had been shooting in the place they had chosen in 1y part of the son. ‘I did not mind t sq much,” said Williams, when relating s experience. “What made me real angry was the presence of a keeper from Tubbs Island, who anchored his boat within 100 yards of me in the slough and scared every duc that toward me. The slough keeper has no right to in- ny one's sport. He may find 1is mistake some day.” Prather, one of the members of the Mal- lard Club, who was enjoined from trepass- on the Teal Club’s shooting preserves, is now at liberty to pepper wild ducks to his b s _content. His case came Judge Buckles at Fairtield, 10 County, on Thursday, and as coun- sel for the plaintiff did not object to the injunction being renewed 1n this case, Mr. Prather can now fall into line and enjoy ne of the fine sport which, from all ap- pearances, should be first class to-day and to-morrow. When the second name was callea the Jawyers for the Teal Club raised all man- er'of objections against dissolving the in- tions, but argument on this point was tponed until next Wednesday, because some of the attorneys wanted to catch an A noon train for this City. The general ion of sportsmen is that the injunc- ns in all cases will be dissolved, as one man should not be made to suffer while other man is allowed to go free when h men are charged alike. If Prather 1d not committed a wrong 1n trespassing the Teal Club’s preserves it will be ler a surprise to the sportsmen and bers of the Mallard Club if his com- 15, who have also been enjoined, will > injunctions against them sus- Antioch, some i 1e favorite places of sportsmen | L00ting over ponds, but since ction of the German carp the ven Antioch and vicinity only notice.

It is expected when the Pioneers will bave their new house constructed that a ladies’ annex will be a feature. A party of Pioneer members and ladies rendezvoused at Hunters Point last Sun- ds,l\:. . Among those present were: T. o Neill, Fred Orr, James Brennan. George Collopy, J. St. John, Al Leech, J. Sullivan.

If was thought that they would have to change the loeation of their new house, owing to the extension of Van Ness ave- nue to the water’s edge, but everything has been amicably settled, and the Dolphin's are awaiting the compietion of the struc- ture, when a rousing house-warmer will be given. o e HANDBALL.

New Boats and Clubhouses That Are Belng Buiit for the Scullers. All the boathouses are being renovated b inside and out, boats are undergoing repairs and many orders have been given the local boat-builders for new boats, as the present equipment is inadequate to the demand of the members. The South End boathouse has been newly painted, and large crayon pictures of the crews who took part in the regatta at Long Bridge on May 30 will embellish | the already well fitted up apartments. The club will soou hold a high jinks, and a feature of the day will be the four-oarea barge race, which is now being arranged between attaches of the County Olerk’s and Sheriff's offices. The County Clerks are enthusiastic over the matter. County Clerk Curry and | Deputies Oscar Lewis and Charlie Long are already members of the South Ends and clever oarsmen, too. Enough new members have been taken into the club lately to almost form a new | organization. The membership of the ciub | is now 150, | members initiated last meeting | V. Curtis, James P. O'Day, J.J. | land; and those proposed for membership | William Brown, Thomas F. Drumm, | McGinn, Vincent Dolan, Ber: nard J. Hyland, W. D. Flinn, A.J. Ken- | nedy and James Pallas. The South Ends will soon let a contract for three outrigger skiffs of the latest model, and it is thought that several single-scullers will be developed through | the use of these boats, as they are built on the lines of a shell and will afford scullers | every opportunity of learning the art of | .\in:fe sculling. | James W. Pembroke of the Alameda | Boat Club and champion outrigger skiff | rower of the coast will be challenged to row for the championship by 4 S8outh End oarsman as soon as the club receives its skiffs. | The South Ends now hold the cham- pionship in everything except in the out- rigger skiffs, and they claim to have a man who will prove an invincible at skiff rowing. The medals received at the Olympic | Club the other evening by the victors of the Sacramento regatta of September 9 are considered the finest ever given the oarsmen, and the rowers say if such medals will be given in the future they will not besitate to enter a race. < Heretofore the medals given in the majority of instances were not worth wearing. : The Ariel Rowing Club will give an en- tertainment and dance on Friday evening, December 3, at Union-square Hall. An elaborate vaudeville, musical and dramatic programme has been arranged, and a number of professional as well as the best amateur talentin the City have volunteered their services. - The Ariel Club has a membership unique ia its personnel. Billy Welsh, the only man who ever de- feated Corbett, is a member of the club, as is also Thomas Geary, the Congressman; Joe Choynski, the pugilist; Henry Peter- son, the oarsman,and Harry F.

Death of an Old Man Foretold by His 12-Year-0ld Boy. The death of an old man named William Hughes at 1104 Mission street yesterday afternoon was reported to the Coroner’s office by Police Sergeant Reynolds. Hughes’ wife died at the City and County Hospital about a week ago, leav- ing a 12-year-old boy to the care of Hughes, who was too old, weak and poor to do any- Yesterday the boy said to his father; “Mamma died a week ago, and you are going to die to-day. His lpredlction proved too true, A glass with a small quantity of car- bolic acid in it was found in the old man’s bedroom, and at first it was thought he had committed suicide, but investigation developed that he had died from natural causes. s e KIND SPANISH WORDS. Revista Del Pacifico Highly Praises “The Call’s”” New Building. Rev'sta del Pacifico, the leading Span- ish paper of San Francisco, had many kind words to say for THE CavLyn in- its last issue. The position of honor—the title page—was devoted to Trr CaLt, contain- ing an elezant half-tone picture of the new bu:lding now in process of construction at the corner of Third and Market streets. The consistent course of THE CALL in the line of legitimate journalism is appreciated by the editor of the Revista, wiuo himself is striving to build up the commercial re- lations between San Francisco and the Spanish-American countries on the Pacific Coast.

At half-past 3 o’clock this afternoon Re- liance and Olympic will line up for the big football game at Central Park, and the spectators will undoubtedly get their] money’s worth, for two complete thirty- five minute halves will be played, the tirst regular halves this year. Heretofore the colliege teams in their games with the athletic clubs this season have shortened the playing time to fifteen Pete Smith, Captain and Left Guard of the Olympic Team. or twenty minutes to avoid long over- exertion before the men should be in per- fect training and able to endure the full time of play. It is generally thought that to-day’s match will be liberally springlea with in- dividual manifestations of inter-club bit- terness, 1n other words that some of the men will be precipitated into slogging matches if they receive aggravations, _ Each tesm will carry plenty of substi- tutes to fortify itse f against the less of players by injuries or, perhaps, by being prozaptly disqualified for foul playing. eam subject to be made at the The line-uv of the tw a change ¢« ¢wy chat m last moment, is as follows: Fosition.

There is also some talk of a dark horse to go in as tackle, but there is no certainty that he will be obtainable, so his name is withheld. With the introduction of this possibility Porter will be put be- hind theline. Bowen, Middlemas, Sharratt and Pat- terson will be the Olympic substitutes. Cameron and Oldenberg are new men on the Olympic team. The Olympic line will be stiff and George I cMillan, Captain and Left 1ackle of the Reliance Team. strong, stronger comparatively than the backs, but not any too strong for Mec- Millan's and Felton Taylor’s irresistible plunges that no tackle has been able to stop this season. The Reliance men will come up this morning from Woodside, whither they accompanied the Stanford team, Though the Reliance line is a little lighter than their o},ponems‘. the well- known reputation of the men that com- pose it shows that they can concede some weight to men opposite tLen. Bunker, McMillan, Burmett, Hall, Har- relson and Harry Walton are all former Stanford players. _ 2 The Reliance right from tie line-up indicates a little less strength than the left of center, but Sherrard at end will be able to help restore the balarce changed by McMillan’s position, for the Relance cavtain, like the Olympic captain, 1s the tower of strength to the team. The Otympic men object most emphati- cally to {-Iarn:lson’ plaving with the Reli- ance, and claim that they have a written agreement from him that he would not vlay with the Reliance team after the trip 10 Butte. The Jocal team has exsvressed the opin- ion of many of the football cranks when it says the first ten minutes will be intense suspense, and if the Olympic men come through that all right the game will be a fierce, even contest. There is likely to be some change in the scheduled make-up of the Reliance team in to-day’s game with the Olympics if the efforts of tée latter prevail. Last night formal charges were preferred against two members of the Reliance team—Walton and Sherrard. Harry Walton is accused of haying violated the amateur rule in having played baseball and acceptsd money therefor. Jack Sherrard is alleged to have been disqualified by his discharge from the Olympic Club for non-payment of dues, therules of the Athletic Associa- tion not permitting his enrollment in an- other club until his credit is re-established. Both charges have been submited to Presi- dent Humphreys of the association, who will take action before the boys line up this afternoo A BUILDING TRADES TUNION. PR i A Strong Central Organization to Be Formed Next Week. After many yearsand many efforts there will soon be a building trades union in San Francisco. Heretofore each union has operated separately, and any troubles arising have been fought out by the union invoived without help or practical support from its brother unions. Finally a few bolder spiritsin the several building trades openly advocated a central union and the matter was agitated until committees from each union were ap- pointed to discuss the advisability of such a move. These committees have been holding conferences for the past month or more. At last the die was cast and a cen- tral union will be the result. The committee’s secretary, Mr. Rose, who is the ;»rcsident of the Painters’ and Decorators’ Union, has sent out cards call- ing for a meeting ofall of the committee which will be held in the Turk-street Te: ple on the evening of the 28th/inst. These committees represent the four Carpenters’ and Joiners’ Unions, the Carpenters’ Dis- trict Council, bricklayers. painters and decorators, plumbers, terers, metal cornice workers, grante-cutters, sand- stone-cutters and the hodearriers” and la- borers’ unions. —_— WHO OWHS THS 807 A Lad in the Youths’ Directory Who Comes From No- where. His Name Is William Thude, but Nobody Claims Him and He Knows Nothing of Home. There is a boy out at the Youths’ Direc- tory on Howard street who is nobody’s child, who came from nowhere in par- ticular, save that ambiguous other world, “the streets,”” and whose past is a complete blank. In fact this unfortunate lad hasno notion whatever of home or kinsfolk; nor has anybody sought him out—no anxious father or mother to take him with them from the institution. And yet the little fellow is brighter than the average boy of his years, He can talk two languages, German being the mother tongue with him, and the English one that came a year or two later. He has a shurp eye and a manly little face and appears to take all that has come to him of late as a matter of course. But more than his own name and his father’s he knows nothing that would offer a clew to his 1dentity. In the institution heisabout ! 10 become one of the unknown of his class—thetiny waifs found on the streets. who grow up to be men without a history and without kin in the world. The Directory register shows that his name is William Thude and his age 8 vears. The lad stated that his fatber's lived somewhere in thought he lived in the Mission and he knew Mission street. “It isa remarkable case,” said Father Crowley, the director. **As arule when a boy is brought here from the streets some of ‘his friends either call to see him or claim him, but with this boy he is utterly forgotten and abandoned. A police officer found him at a late hour on the streets re- cently and took him to the City Prison. for five nights. He was wholly ignorant of where he lived and had all the appear- ance of having been sadly neclected. Mr. Kane brought him to the Directory, but since then nobody has sought the lad.” Willie was called into Father Crowley's | oftice to give an account of himself. He walked without hesitation to where the | priest sat, and in his manner betraved something of the new discipline and con- duct to which he had been introduced in the home. “Where did you come from, Willie?” Father Crowley asked. “From the City Prison.” *“‘Anywhere else?”" “I don't know. I came from the City Prison.” “Had you a home?” “Yes, sir.”’ “Do ?’u\l wish to go back there?” “Father used to lick me. Don't know where it1s.” *‘Hdve you a mot “Don’t know, sir.

Another notable purchase of real estate has been made indicating the growing at- tractiveness of local realty in the eyes of Eastern capital. purchased the south corner of Third and Stevenson streets from Mary J. Anthony for Frederick and Albert Baruch of New York City for §85,000. The income rent of the present buildings is in the aggregate $480. The property measures 45 feet front on Third street and 75 feet on Stevenson. There stands on it an old two-story brick and plaster puilding which was jor many years occupied as a news stand anc stationery store and is now occupied as two saloons. The upper story is vacant; it was formerly the headquarters of the Lotus Club. 3 The New York principals in the new sale have instructed A.J.Rich & Co. to have plans drawn for an eight-story build- ingof steel and yellow pressed brick, with marble vestibule and lower stairway, to cost at least $50,000. As soon as the plans are approved the present buildings will be removed. Thiscontinues the series of big sales in this vicinity started by the purchase by Claus Spreckels of the corner of Third and Market streets for $306,000, and the adjoin- ing lot on Market street for $115,000. This was followed by the sale of the Snillaber property for $166,000. With the present sale the grand total reaches §672,000.

Ed Purser had several good-sized bets down on Sennitz who won'through Martin's splendid riding. Scimitar in his race proved himsel a good game youngster. He was bumped and knocked about several times during the running, but finished strong under Chorn’s riding and won cleverly, Mis sire, imp. Eothen, got the Futur- ity winner Requital. If ever & horse was messed about in & race that horse was Redington ridden by Donnelly in the lastrace. Atthe end the Emperor of Norfolk youngster was bubbling over with run, but Donnelly deliberately took him in next the rail behind Belle Boyd and Abi P, ruining all chance of winning. At the weights he should have disposed of Belle Boyd without effort. The cold mnortherner swept over the course yesterday, causing the dust to arise in clouds. Everybody was muffled up, and the betting was not heavy, even the plung- ers beine unable to thaw out. Five races were down on the card, and favorites proved successful in but two of these. Marty Bergen and Garner, the promis- ing lightweight, both made their appear- ance at the meeting in the saddle, the former riding a winner. The racing opened with a seven-furlong run, and the talent made a very poor pick to carry the coin. Rhaetia was sent to the vost a 3 to 2 favorite and failed to get a mark. In a driving finish the second choice, Regan, ridden by Cash Stoan, took the race by a head from Long d’Or. Imp. Trentola, a long-priced outsider, made a fine run from last position, finish- ing a close third. The Oakland stable’s Last Chance was a very warm favorite for the nextrun, at tive and a half furlongs, the general price around the ring being 9 to 10. This also | proved a disastrous choice for the crowd. Wiliie Martin on Schnitz reserved bis | horse for the final spurt, and, passing Sel- kirk the last fifty yards, won by two lengths. The favorite was third, a head | back of Selkirk. The third event, over seven furlongs, re- | sulted in a victory for the second choice, | Scimitar. Bernard, the 2 to 1 favorite, showed in front as the stretch was reached, ! but could not last and was passed by both | Scimitar and Raindrop, the former win- | ning in a drive by half a length. The following race at 4 mile resulted in | the casiest win of the duy. Ozkley opened | an even-money favorite. but there was | such a strong play on Hy Dy and Don | Ceesar that he receded in the betting to | 7to 5. Passing Don Ceesar after a furlong | had been traversed, he spreadeagled his | field, winning in a big romp by six lengths in 1:4114. an‘py Day easily disposed of Hy Dy for the place. The money all went in on the game Belle Boyd to win the last race. a seven- furlong dash. She was heavily backed at | 8 to 5 and won through Bergen’s good rid- !1ng. Leading all the way, Abi P came hot after her the last furlong, but the veteran Bergen outfinished Tod Sloane and got her past the wire first by a nose.

The executive committee for the Italian celebration of the 20th of September has held its final meeting, and President G. Calegaris has been presented with a medal by his grateful colleagues. At this final meeting, which occurred Thursday, the president announced that the surplus amounted to $400. It was re- solved to hand half this amount over to the trustees of the Italian school, and to deposit the other half with the Italian Consul for the poor of the colony. After the meeting, F. Cayvagnaro com- plimented President Calegaris on his able work for the celebration, and in the name of his colleagues presented him with a handsome medal of chiseled gold, as a souvenir of the celebration, and as an ex- pression of esteem. The medal bears on one side a beautiful bas-relief of a figure allegorical of Rome, with the legendary wolf; beneath it are the words: “Roma Intangible; a Roma ci siamo e ci rester- emo.” The reverse bears in Italian the inscription: “The executive committee for the jubilee festival of Rome, the capital; to its president, G. Calegaris, San Fran- cisco, 20 September, 1895."" MURPHY-GRANT - REALTY, It Will Be Sold Under an Order of Court Within Sixty Days. G. H. Umbsen Chosen as Referee. Expects to Realize Over Half a Million Dollars. The Murphy-Grant property on the cor- ner of Sansome and Bush streets is to be sold, by order of Judge Slack, within the next sixty days. The order was entered yesterday in pursuance of the arguments which have been made by counsel for some time past. G.H. Umbsen, the real estate man, was agreed upon by all parties asthe one to conduct the sale, and he was accordingly appointed referce. The suit in whicli this decree has been entered was brought by Adam Grant. He sued to have sold all the property in which the Grant estate and the Murphy estate had title. This suit was opposed by the Murphy girls, or all but Lady Wolseley, and was favored by the boys, Sam and Daniel. The ground for the opposition was that the int erests of the Murphy girls in this property, which is determined by their mother’s will, is still a matter of litigation in the Oakland courts. The wiil of Mrs. Anng Murphy is before the courts, and until it was established or broken it was claimed that none of the property of the estate could be sold. The case was on argument several days before Judge Slack, and the action last taken is in the nature of an interlocutory decree which, while ordering the property sold, does not attempt to adjudicate the various claims against it. The proceeds of the sale will be turned in to the court. The property consists of the fifty-vara lot on the northeast corner of Sansome and Bush streets, upon which the Murphy- Grant building now stards. It is valuea at from $400,000 to $550,000 and _the inter- ests of the parties concerned differ aimost as often as a new claimant can be named. Adam Grant will get fourteen twenty- fourths of the proceeds of the sale; one twenty-fourth will go to the estate of Eu- gene L. Murphy; one twenty-fourth to Mary Helen Dominguez (formerly Mary Helen Murphy); one twenty-fourth to Frances Josephine Murphy; one twenty-fourth to Mary Margaret Isabella Murphy, and six twenty-fourths to those who are entitled to the real estate of which Anna L. Mur- phy died seized, that is to say to Mary Helen Dominguez, Frances "Josephine Murphy, Mary Margaret Isabella Murphy, Anna T. Wokeley (formerly Anna T. Murphy), David T. Murphy, Samuel J. Murphy, Mary B. Murphy, Eugene Besson Murphy and Charles Murphy. The inter- ests of all these are now under litigation in the Oakland court, and Judge' Slack makes no attempt to adjudicate upon them. Part of the property, described as hav- ing a frontage on Bush street of 137:6 feet and on Sansome of 80 feet, will be sold subject to a lease now held by Victor H. Metcalf as administrator of the estate of The lease will run until Anua Murphy. vs $2200 a month.
