The Electric Line Expected to Be in Run- ning Order To-Day. _Actual construction work on the exten- sion of the Mission-street electric railway, from China avenue to Ingleside, was com- pleted shortly before noon yesterday, and the remainder of the day was devoted to b_roperly ballasting the roadbed and put- ting on the finishing touches, which are ai_ways necessary to permit of smooth run- ning. At 8 o’clock this morning a trial trip will be made, and, as soon as it ig found that the tracks are in shape for carrying pas- sengers, sufficiént cars will be put on to carry all the traffic that may offer up to noon. After that hour the entire fifty cars that are to be used on this line will be placed in service. This will permit cars to leave the ferry every two minutes for the new racetrack and transportation will thus be provided for 2000 each hour. All the cars will be kept in service during the en- | tire day, after the noon hour, but will be | so bunched as to afford the best possible | accommodations during the *‘rush” peri- ods, both going to and coming from the racetrack. It is expected that the new line will be tested to its fullest capacity, as it will be opened under pecuiiarly favorable circum- To-day is the opening of the new se of the Pacific Coast Jockey raceco { Club; it is a holiday and the line runs | through new territory. and all these causes will no doubt contribute to make traflic heavy. From the ferry to the other terminus of the line the distance is eight miles, the ex- tension "just completed having added two | miles to the road. The work on the exten- sion was one of the most rapid pieces of street-railway construction ever performed Actual work was not com- menced until the 20th of this month, and it was virtually complete by noon yester- day. The actual time consumed in the task, from the breaking of the ground, was seven and a half days and three nights, during which time two miles of a double- track railway was made ready for traffic. The new track isonly directly reached by the Mission-street line, but transfers are issued to this line from the following roads: Postand Leavenworth, Oak, Turk and Eddy, Filimore and Sixteenth, Sutter and Larkin, San Francéisco and San Mateo | Electric, Third and Twenty-second streets. It is expected that it will require about a week to ballast and take off all the rough edges from the new line, and after this is accomplished work will be started on the Folsom-street lines Additional facilities for those desiring to g0 to the races will be provided by South- ern Pacific trains leaving from the Third and Townsend streets depot. to-day special trains to and from Ingleside will run daily except Sundays as follows: eet at 12 . 30 P.

Competing With Oscar Osen Did Not Make Them Professionals. Otto Ziegler. The suspension of C. M. Murphy, the great class B racer, from all tracks for life, as published in THE CALL yesterday, cre- | ated a great deal of comment among the wheelmen. The punishment seems se- vere, but it will serve as a great object les- son to other riders, and will teach them | that the racing rules of the League of | American Wheelmen must be followed to the letter, and that any infringement will result in suspension penaing investigation, I and possibly expulsion from the league. | A morning contemporary printed a story | yesterday about certain of the Olympic Cyclers being made professionals for having competed with Oscar Osen in short-distance road races at Mayfield last There is no foundation for this statement, as R. M. Welch of the racing soard and R. A. Smyth, the official handi- yesterday. While those who competed against Mr. Osen may receive a friendly warning from the racing bosrd to be care- | ful, still they have not as yet actually infringed upon any of the league rules relating to amateurs and profession- als. The races were informal affairs upon Beginning | WIFE-RIGHTS SWEPT AWAY Extraordinary Decision on Prop- erty Titles Rendered by a Judge. NEW AND SENSATIONAL LAW. A Construction That Community Prop- erty May Be Transferred by One Party. A decision, which if sustained by the erty titles in this State, has been rendered by Judge Slack in the case of Spreckels vs. Spreckels, in which Claus and Anna Spreckels are suing for the possession of certain stock in the hands of Rudolph Spreckels. The decision is upon a de- murrer submitted by Rudolph Spreckels, and by its terms the demurrer is sus- tained. In sustaining the demurrer Judge Slack announces practically that the consent of the wife need not be necessary in the transferring of community property in Ler estate is but one step better than an estate in expectancy. The stock in question includes 5000 shares of the Paahua Plantation Com- pany, of a value of $500,000. These shares were transferred to Rudolph Spreckels by Claus Spreckels in July, 1893. Thg stock was community property and Mrs. Anna Spreckels had given no consent to the transfer, nor did she ever ratify it. Upon this ground suit was brought for the re- turn of the stock so transferred, upon the ground that the transfer beinfi of com- munity property and without the consent of the wife was void. This complaint was demurred to by the defendant. Supreme Court will play havoc with prop- | gift under certain circumstances, and that | | | the husband in such property. and it remains | to be seen whether or not the amended com- plaint warrants the position that the stock was acquired by the community before the amend- ment went into effect. Tke court then states that as the plead- ings must be construed against the pleader inthe absemce of any allegation to the contrary it must Le cgncluded that .the stock was acquired prior to the approving of the amendment. In pursuing this con- clusion the court holds further that this matter of acquisition of prop- erty. has no bearing on the ques- tion in view of the wording of the amendment. It would lead to end- less confusion, the opinion states, to have the written consent of the wite necessary" in all cases, and consequently, in following the rule that statutes should be coustrued for the greatest benefit of the greatest number, the court holds that “such com- munity property’’ means all community property, and so the amendment does not apply to this particular case. R The last point is perhaps the most dis- tinct of all. The court holds that as Mrs. Spreckels did not protest within the statu- tory time her right to protest falls anyway, regardless of statutes and amendments, and so the demurrer must stand. PARE AND COSTLY CURIDS, A Part of Mr. De Young's Col- lection of Antiques at the Casino. They Will Be Inspected by the Mid- winter Fair Committee This Morning. This morning at 10 o’clock M. H. de Young will exhibit and describe to the Midwinter Fair committee the curios he has gathered from the countries of Europe for the instruction and enjoyment of the multitudes that attend the park. For several days Charles P. Wilcomb, custodian of Golden Gate Park Museum, and five assistants have been busily un- packing the first ins.allment of the curios and arranging them in the Casino for the The case depended mainly upon an | inspection of the committee. amendment to section 172 of the Civil There are 200 boxes in the entire collece SOME OF THE CURIOS OF TEE DE YOUNG COLLECTION. (Sketched by a “Call’’ artist.] Code, approved March 31, 1891, which pro- vides tnat the husband cannot make a gft of community property, or cgn- vey the same without a valuable consider- ation, unless the wife consents to the transter in writing. The complaint, as where stated that the transfer of stock was a gift, but, continuing on in its state- ment of the case, the court as- sumes such to be the fact and pro- ceeds to pass upon it. Indoing so the court announces that had the stock been acquired after the amendment became in forcea gitt of the same by the husband and without the written consent of the the road, without special officials, prizes or other details, and were more in the spirit of good fellowship and friendly rivalr than actual com petitions for suprema There was no reason to scare Messrs, Butz, Coffroth, Tantau and others half out of their wits by saying that they nad made themselvds ~professionals by competing | ith Osen, and that they would have to resign from the Olympic Club in conse- | quence. The protest and suggestion to | professionalize them came from the other wheeling annex of the club, and it is easy to understand the animus which prompted it when one considers the bitter feeling and rivalry existing between the Oiympic | Club Cyclers and Olympic Club Wheel- men. The Bay City Wheelmen will have a run Sunday next to Redwood City, leaving from Golden Gate avenue and Polk street | at%:30 A. . Lieutenant George P. Cald- well will lead the run, Captain Plummer being absent from the City. The whereabouts of Otto Ziegler Jr., the great racer, is still a mystery. He was from Louisville, where he has been break- ing records. The Olympic Club Wheel- men, whose guest he will be while here, say that they expect him in at 10:45 this | morning. He will probably go direct to | San Jose, where he expects to try for rec- ords on the Garden City Cyclers’ cement track. The rain has not affected the quarter- mile track at Petaluma, and the meet of the Petaluma Wheelmen will be held on it to-day. The races are ali for class A riders, and there is a large entry list, already pub- lished. All riders must be provided with bells now, and must ring them while approach- ing and passing street crossings. Lamps are not a necessity according to the new ordinance, but may be carried if desired. Bells must be carried and used, however, both night and day. e —————— A Remarkab) In Santa Clara Valley.

Won 17 straight races wife would undoubtedly be of no effect; but once more the court proceeds upon assumption and assumes, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, that the stock was acquired previous to the taking effect of the amendment. In pursuance of this assumption the amendment of March, 1891, is practically eliminated from the case. . The court then proceeded to define the interest of the wile in the community property as being something i the nature of an estate in expectancy, and an interest which during his life made the husband practically sole owner. Prior to the amendment of March, 1891, the interest of the wife was in this state, but commenting upon the effect of this amendment the court says: : It is evident that the interest of the wife in the community property has been enlarged by the amendment of 1891 in so far as the amend- ment extends, since the power of the husband to dispose of the property by gift is subject to the wife's written consent, and to that extent the interest of the husband is lessened and his vested rights in the community property acquired before the amendment became & law are impaired, Property, as is well said by the learned counsel for the plaintiffs, is the compound, not only of the right to possess—the jus possidendi—but also of the right to dispose—the jus disponendi —and if the vested right of the husband to dispose of the community property is inter- fered with by legislative enactment the law ia that respect is unconstitutional. Continuing further and commenting upon an earlier act the opinion says: By a statute of 1879 it was enacted that the husband should have no power to sell, convey or incumber the community real estate unless the wife joins with him in the instrument by which the real estate was sold or conveyed or incumbered. It was held that a husband could not, after the passage of the latter statute, without his wife joining, make a valid contract to sell community resl estate acquired before the statute was 1 one who knew that the real estate belonged to the community, and the vender could not, therefore, maintain an action against uzai husband to recover damages for breach of the contract to convey. It was urged that tne statute interfered with the husband’s vested rights in the land, but the court decided otherwise, nvlr:g‘u reason that the proprietary interests of husband and wife are equal in community property, and s the husband’s previous disposition wasa mere trust conferred upon him as a memberand head of the community in trust for the community, and not & proprietary right, it was perfectly competent for the Legislature of 1879 to take it from him and assign it to himself and his wife eonjo(nni Of course no other result was pos- sible on the assumption that prior to the statute the interests of husband and wife in the com- munity property were equal, and the husband acted as a mere trustee of the community in managing and disposing of the community gmreny. Hn!‘.ll heretofore seen, the wife in alifornia has had no interest in the commun- iy property, to which the term property could be applied. It resuits, therefore, that the amendment, if intended to affect the gifts of the community property already acquired, is invalid, as an im- prover interference with the vested rights of | the opinion of the court announces, no- | | jewel casket of a Marie Antoinette. tion, seventy-seven of which have been re- ceived and opened. Owing to the lack of room in the museum Mr. de Young's pur- chases will remain‘in the Casino until the annex of the museum is completed. The collection comprises specimens of nearly everything ancient artist has de- signed and ancient artisan executed, from an Egyptian kitchen utensil of baked clay to the magnificent inlaid throne-chair of the great Napoleon. There are a thousand keys of every variety of shape and size—long keys and short keys; Keysthat have on them th corrosion and rust of centuries, and k that gleam with the brilliance of incorrupt- ible gold; massive and cumbersome k¢ a foot long that, perbaps, opened the nonderous gate of a feudal hall, and keys of exquisite workmanship, inlaid with precious stones, cast only to unlock the There were poinards thickly inlaid with emeralds and rubies, Arabian rifles, highly ornate, inlaid with mother-of-pearl, used in the eleventh centul;y; crossbows that came from the forests of Engiand, and the more powerful lanista that hurled lead and bars of steel. There was a large collection of knives and forks, delicately chiseled abeut their ivory handles, of very ancient make and used probably by the nobility during the reign of Louis XTII. Among the warlike exhibits were several complete snits of French armor with the linked mail shirt.- A nondescript collec- tion of steel stirrups used by the old Cru- saders, and a fantastically shaped saddle of red plush and gold usea by one of the esquires of Boabdil, the Knight of Granada. All sorts of musical instruments of an- tique make were unpacked, one being of striking beauty—a harp of ebony and gilt, standing nearly five feet high, used prob- ably by a troubador of France. There were mandolins and flageolets, Sicilian pipes and grotesque looking bas- soons. < The most remarkable specimens are in the ivory collection, among which is a hunting-horn over four feet long, carved out of a single piece of ivory and covered with - delicately cut figures of nounds, huntsmen ana fleeing deer, and a pipe five feet in length, ornately carved from a single piece of ivory. There were medals without number, rare and ancient, and miniatures of all sizes, painted on porcelain and ivory. Some very beautiful vases of Sevres and majolica ware stood out quite conspicu- ously, while among the rarest of the speci- mens were two large medallions of bisque, the figures being cut with marvelous delicacy. These were very old and of Grecian origin. % The curios will not be on exhibit for public inspection probably before the first of next ye: .

The Annual Puzzle i “You may talk about catching rainbow | trout in the Eel and Fruckee rivers, but for right good sport you should repair to Powell-street wharf and try your hand at catching young salmon,” said John Stack, a well-known local sportsman and angler for salt-water fishes. “I was aown there yesterday and caught some beautiful grilse. The wharf was lined with fishermen, and it wasa most | amusing sight to watch some of the anglers trying to land those game fishes. “The young salmon, which are now on their journey to the Sacramento River, have wonderful vitality, and when hooked WHAT TO GIVE FOR A theimasives fom the oot~ ot < | L IDAY *I think there must have been thirty or | PRESENT. more of those game fishes caught yester- day, and as the tides will answer for this kind of sport during the week, some big catches will certainly be made.” When asked for an opinion as to the best method oi‘angl'm , Mr. St;ck said that i the first place a long and stiff pole was s. s necessary, and as sogme of the fishes run lee some’thmg that has large, a good reel and plenty of line should | yge and durability as well also form a part of an angler’s equipment. oy 2 3 “sén;:e people re]g_upnn agaff for land-| as mere prettiness.

The worm should be run up the full length of the hook, and the herring strip fastened on the barb so that it will wobblein the water and attract the fishes asthey swim past it. The bait should be permitted to sink about six feet under water, at which distance the grilse pass in schools on theirrun to fresh water. “When a fish of six or seven pounds is hooked it will certainly break away if the man at the butt end of the rod does not understand how to handle a game fish. You can’t yank one of those fellows out of the water as you would & rockcod or sea trout. Not much; they won’t tolerate any such treatment. I saw a fellow lose two beautiful fish yesterday, because he yanked | them too hard. Oneof those big fellows, | when hooked, will demand line, and vou must not offer an objection, but let him have all he wants for the first run, pro- vided he does not head for the spiles, in which instance he must be checked. Two or three wild rushes generally ends the worst part of the battle and then comes the landIng, which requires skill also. “I have watched the maneuvers of some of the grilse when inspecting the bait. They will swim around it and run their noses against the wriggling worm two or three times before they wili conclude that | it is the genuine article, but when they do take hold you must look out for business, as they frequently make a run of twenty yards or feeling the sting of the sharp steel.

He believed she had se- cured $50,000 from her deceased husband’s estate, and so when he found that he was utterly mistaken, and that her deceased husband’s estate was in fact insolvent, he leit her. This was two months after her marriage. Since then Mrs. Bailey has found that her husband has beena gambler, and is badly wanted in Ohio for some crooked work there.
