THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 14, 1%95. Gerry strutted off to her stable with head high'in the air, looking every bit a 2-year- old in actions.

Service was a mild sort of a choice around post time, with Mayday, Rico and Tar and Tartar next in demand. Service led until within something over a sixteenth from_the wire, where Tor and Tartar, Mayday and E. H. Shirley closed on him and heé gave it up. In e very exciting drive Tod Sloan on Tar and Tartar got his horse past the wire first by a neck, with Mayday a nose in front of Shirley. Green Morris, brother to Tournament, the “*‘doggy” Sir Play, even-money favorite for the third, went at six furlougs, led his field until within a hundred yards from the wire, when he stopped toa walk and finished third. Ramiro, second choice in the betting, won by a length, with Grady in the place. : The talent thought the mile and a six- teenth selling race about fitted Oakley, and he came out a well-played 4 to 5 favorite.

This E\'nnla make a good attraction for ladies’ ay, The second edition of the Form Book has been issued in very handy pamphlet form. It is far superior to the old-s turf guides and has found zreat favor with racegoers. The one just issued contains the Eastern races from November 11 to December 7 inclusive. The greatly exaggerated accounts of the little tilt between Starter James F. Cald- well and Plunger Riley Grannan that oc- curred at the Palace Hotel and found 1ts way into print resulted in Riley tendering profuse apologies to Mr. Caldwell, and say:- ing that the affair would never have oc- curred but for too liberal an indulgence in intoxicants. Both gentlemen are on the friendliest of terms. Grannan backed Oakley heavily, but partially saved his money by having a bet on the Spreckels entry, Foremost. The gentlemen’s race at six furlongs, originally carded for ladies’ day, will not be run until Thursday of the coming week. George Miller came out of the paddock s0 full of run for the last race that he came near getting away with young Slaughter, running a furlong at fuli speed before the boy could pull him up. Charley Quinn went down the line on May Day to win the second race. and it was only due to Tod Sloan’s vigorous fin- ish on Tar and Tartar that he did not cash his tickets.

Mayor Sutro’s Donation of Land Widened the Circle of Friends ! of the Home. The handiwork of the inmates of the California Girls’ Training Home will be exhibited at a bazaar to be held at that in- stitution, 26 Hill street, on Thursday after- noon and evening. The homeless, friendless girls who have been rescued from the streets by the body of Christian women who constitute the board of managers of the institution are busy in their preparation of useful or fancy articles for the sale. Itis a prond and happy time for them, for they are learning their first leszons of genuine use- | fulness. Thev were gathered about a work- table vesterday fashioning big, golden chrysanthemums, purple California vio- lets and carnations of every tint frém a pile of vari-colored tissue - paper. Their pride and pleasure were evident from the unusual brightness of faces, that bore, young as they were, traces of the bardness and misery of their Ii A pretty young woman from one of the churches was instructing them in the art of making blooms from the product of the paper-mills, and all were talking of the coming bazaur. *Ob, I hope lots of ladies will come, said one, “and that we’ll sell everything we've made,” said another, adding a dainty touch to a pink carnation. They chatted about the big Christmas tree to be decked with their handiwork, and hoped that when the last visitor was gone the last article would also be gone, for the girls are thoroughly n ; with the spirit of the home, and all th: work is for the purpose of raising mone for the institution, and the proceeds will go toward the fund for the new building on the lots recently donated by the Mayor. The programme wiil consist of a wand ex- ercise, conducted by Miss Mabel Sweet- land, recitations by Mrs. Elizabeth Shear- er, music and the stories of a skilled palm- ist. Tickets are being distribdted at the home and by the lady managers. ‘The news of Mavor Sutro’s donation of a building site and the unremitting efforts of the directors have created a wider in- terest in the institution than it bas ever enjoyed. Contributions are becoming more liberal. Requests are coming for a presentation of the aims and progress of the work, notably from the First Congre- gational Church of Oakland, which was re- sponded to in person by the president, Mrs. R. L. W. Davis, and some of the di- rectors yesterday. Daily classes are being conducted by ladies interested in the institution, as follows: Miss Mabel Sweetland gives physical culture drills on Monday; Mrs. Russell, Bible study, on Tuesdey; * Miss Morrison the divine art of music and the homely art of darning, on Wednesday; Mrs. Frank J. French, gospel meetiugs, on Thursday; the Persevering Circle of King’s Daughters from Westminster Presby- terian Church, dressmaking, on Friday; Miss Helmers, fancy work, on Saturday. Devotional exercises are provided by Trinity Presbyterian Y. P. S. C. E. the first Sunday of the month; Mrs. M. A. Keeley, the secona Sun- day; deaconesses from the Bible Training School on the third; young ladies from the Third Congregational Chuich on the fourth; Mrs. Tenney on the fifth. Contributions are being received from Sacramento, Stockton and other towns of the State. FIVE INQUESTS. Bartlett Said Mrs. Mabel Wilson Told Him She Intended to Commit Suicide Because of Him, Five inquests were held by Coroner Hawkins yesterday. ' In the cases of Mrs. Mabel Wilson, who poisoned herself because her lover, Albert E. Bartlett, had abandoned her; Rolf J. Rolfson, the Bay-street inventor who shot himself because of domestic troubles; Phillip Button, the Polk-street cigar- dealer who cut his throat; and Hugo Frauenholz, the brewer who shot himself at the Cliff House because of business re- verses, verdicts of suicide were rendered, and in that of C.B. Buscocio, 'who was drowned, the verdict was ‘‘accident.” Bartlett testified at the Mrs. Mabel Wilson inquest that the women had told him on Wednesday night that she was going to commit suicide because he would not live with her, and he said he tried to dissuade her from her purpose. Melville Ferre, a clerk of the Owl drug- store, stated that the woman purchased the strychnine from him to “poison rats,” as she said. He registered and labeled it aceording to law, he explained.

The Ranks Unbroken by the Enemy and the Campaign Outlined. leaves shortly for Mrs. Henrietta E. Brown Refutes the Charge that the Organization is Sectarian. The ranks of the Women’s Federation for Public Good seem in no wise dismayed by the alleged counter movements of op- posing companies of women warriors against the powers of vice. The committce on by-laws held a meet- ing vesterday at the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union headquarters, and the results of its deliberations will be sub- mitted to the federation at the Monday afternoon meeting in the Y. M. C. A. lecture-room. Mrs. Henrietta E. Brown, a prominent memter of the California Woman’s Chri tian Temperance Union and one of the or- ganizers of the federation, said yesterday: “We are more in earnest and more san- guine than since the organization was effected. Monday’s meeting promises to be of more than usual interest. We in- tend to discuss the matter of incorporation at that time. Plans of work wili be de- cided upon and committees will be ap- pointed to take up the various lines of work already presented. It is expected that atleast one weman'’s society from each church will send representatives. We in- tend that the work shall soon be syste- matically arranged and a thorough cam- paign against vice inaugurated. Inquiries are constantly being received from those who are anxious to assist in the work laid out. It is the purpose of the organization to push the work energeti- cally. “As the society is entirely and emphati- cally non-sectarian representatives from every woman’s society organized for pub- lic good will be gladly welcomed. We ex- pect more societies to be represented at this meeting than at any previous one. The plan of work is so broad that every one who desires can find a place in which to work.” — e Reception and Tea.

The ladies would particularly at this time appreciate gifts of blankets. he’ present accommodations of the home will soon be exhausted, and ere long the. management will have to enlarge their present quarters or secure a new loca- tion with increased facilities. ————————— Ah Wah Held to Answer.

Something About Morphine, Sulphur, Molasses and Other, Things. From the Evening News, Newark, N. J. Among the popular saciety leaders in East Orange, N. J., Emma L. Stoll, a charming young maiden, stands in the foremost rank. ghe is of & lovable disposition and the light of the social set in which she moves. For two years she has been a sick girl from internal troubles peculiar to women, and having re- cently recovered, has given our reporter the following interesting account: “Instead of improving under the care of my physician I became worse. For five weeks I was unable to get out of bed, and about 6 o'clock each morming I suffered horribly. My lips were sore and lacerated from the marks of my téeth, for in my efforts to keep irom scream- ing I sunk my teeth deep into my lips. At such times I rolled and tossed until the bed shook like an aspen leaf, and it. {inally got so serious that the doctor—I won’t tell you his name—gave me some morphine pills to take. The very thought of them now makes me shiver. These morphine pills simply put me to sleep for a while and when [ became con- scions again my agony was renewed. “The pain in my stomach and back was more than I could stand. ‘Your blood is poor,’ said the doctor, ‘take sulphur and molasses,’ and I did until it was a great wonder that I was not a molasses cak t was time wasted in taking it, because I was nof benefited in the least; my suffering continued but, by a mighy effort, after being in bed so long, I got up. Oh, but wase sad sight then. From 112 pounds I had fallen *o ninety; my cheeks were }ule and sunken, and I limped; yes, actually hobbled from the extreme pain inmy side. Then I read of Dr. Wiiiiams’ Pink Pills for Pale People, and the testimonial in the News inutlud me with hope. I got the pillsand took them. Before many days I began t0 im- prove, and before I had finished one box I felt as if I could go out and walk for miles. I[soon stopped limping, and through the Pink Pills [ soon bid goodby to my headaches, while the pain in my stomach and back slowly but surely succumped to the influence of these pills, that seem to be able to persuade all pain 10 leave one's bod{ Now I am as I used to be; well and strong, light-hearted and merry, but never without "the pills. See, I have got some of them now.” and from a nearby desk she handed out one of the boxes. Dr. Williams’ Pink Fills contain, in a con- densed form, sll the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves.
