Wood Wins Another Premium for a Speed Trip. HOW THE GALENA GOT AWAY. Marshal Collins of Petaluma and His Runaway—A Steel Schooner for This Coast. One of the coast greyhounds, the bark Rufus C. Wood, which arrived from Nanaimo yesterday afternoon, won another prize for her master, Captain McLeod. He mace the round trip between this and the | day of July, 1895, and attended a mock- marriage ceremony wherein Inez Mercer and Westcott were the principals. - ml'ullaccounts of the proceedings in Judge Slack’s court have been published in THE CaLL. After the hearing of the applica- tion facts were adduced to prove that the marriage was genuine and that Isaacs was not present at the wedding. Detective Edward Gibson handled the case and lined uP the witnesses to sustain his findinfi:. Mr. Gibson testified, and so did James R. McElroy, clerk of Judge S8lack’s court. The Grand Jury also heard the official stenographer of the court, who had in his possession the original notes and tran- scripts of the Isaacs testimony. In addition to this overwheiming evi- dence, Inez Mercer herself, whose aspira- tion for fame in the world of the drama, is justified by her style and looks, went be- fore the Grand Jury and produced a good impression. She made a clear straightfor- ward confession of the facts connected with the hearing of the casein Judge Slack’s court, admitting that I[saacs vol- unteered to go on the witness-stand and testify that thejmarriage cetemonyjin Port- land was a farce and the result of an inno- cent “lark.” She was not pressed by the District At- torney ot the Grand Jury to commit her- self.

H The bark Galena started to sea Thurs- day. her captain intending to take advan- tage of the favorable wind and a strong | ebb tide and sail out. The treacherous | currents, however, threw the vessel over | near Angel Island, where she almost went | ashore. She drifted clear, and was draw- | ing dangerously near the rocks off Lime | Point when the anchor was let go. | The bark lay in her {»cnlous position all | night, with the breakers booming close | aboard. Yesterday the captain concluded that the services of a tug would be the | safer investment, and the tug Sea King | dragged the Galena to sea without further | mishaps. | Yesterday Marshal Collins of Petaluma | had an interesting runaway at the Tibu- | ron ferry. He was in charge of Del Kirby, | a 15-year-old boy, wanted in Petaluma for | robbery. Young Kirby, with a companion | known as the “Kid,"” stole a small sloop | two weeks ago and went pirating among sloughs around Petaluma and Lakeville. Like the freebooters of the Spanish Main they levied upon everything they came across. Boats and hunting arksof sporting clubs were pillaged, barnyards were invaded and the throat of many a slaugntered chicken bled. They were overtaken ana arrested, however, and the Petaluma offi- cer yesterday started home with his pris- oner,whom he compelled to carry a bundle of oars stoien at Lakeville. That the boy cou Id carry his plunder the Marshal took the handcuffs irom his wrists, which was amistake. Suddenly young Kirby dropped his oars and darted away. The pirate of the sloughs clapped on all sail and sped across East street with Collins and several policemen in pursuit. Kirby led them a merry chase through water-front alleys until they captured him in a barn, where he had stowed himself. Marshal Collins took no more chances with his nimble prisoner and the hand- cuffs were in use the rest of the journey. | The barkentine W. H. Dimond and brie | W. G.

Mercer Made a Straight- forward Confession to the Grand Jury. Inez Inez Mercer’s marriage éngaged the at- tention of the Grand Jury yesterday. After the examination of seven witnesses the jury reported to Judge Slack of the Su- perior Court and presented indictments for perjury against William C. Isaacs. It was disclosed in the testimony of Ig- natz Edlinger, Mrs. Aloise Edlinger of the Belmont House, and the bedmaker of that lodging establishment, that Isaucs was in San® Francisco, stopping at the Beimont, on July 26, 1895. In Judge Slack’s court, during the hearing of Inez Mercer’s application for the annulment of her marriage with A. B. Westcott, Isaacs testitied that he was in Portland on that | Rev. Dr. Cornelius, the late pastor of | the same place. made a full confession. \ She is detained as a witness for the State | in the prosecution of Isaacs, but will prob- ably be released on bail to-day. Before she went into the jury-room she | was_ affectionately kissed bya lady com- | panion. who no doubt fancied that the | osculation would brace up the witnese to | r the ordeal of meeting such austere | citizens as District Attorney Barnes, Fore- | man Frank Maskey, Secretary McLennan, Theodore Payne and others of the Grand Jury. Itdid not take Ler long to tell her story, for she emerged from the room within ten minutes after she entered. The | scene could not have been a very trying one on her nerves, for she came out appar- ently placid and unruffled. A male escort adjusted her wraps about her shoulders, and then she retired with a deputy sheriff as one of her companions. The Grand Jury also found an indict- ment for embezzlement yesterday avainst Henry L. Fox on the complaint of Bridget Holland, who intrusted to Fox's care twenty shares of Spring Valley stock. The District Attorney did not ask for the issue of a bench warrant. He explained that Fox was already in custody on the same charga in another form. The Grand Jury is constantly besieged | by attorneys and others who desire that | cases dismissed in the Police Courts should be taken up. Many witnesses were in waiting yesterday to be called in such pro- | ceedings. The present Grand Jury did re- | solve in a sense to have nothing to do with cases which properly belong in the Police | Courts, but the resolution has been broken, | and the resvlt is that nearly all the time | of every session is given np to the hearing of criminal case; BECEPTION 10 SHNKEY, Great Audience Charmed by the Sweet Gospel Singer. Addresses by H. J. McCoy, Dr. M. M. Gibson and Songs by the Evangelists. An immense audience assembled at the Young Men’s Christian Association last evening to greet the sweet gospel singer, Ira D. Sankey, and that other other sing- | ing evangelist who is following so closely in his footsteps, George Stebbins. The auditorium was crowded to 'the walls during the earlier part of the even- ing, when the formal programme was ren- dered. After the audience sang “*At the Cross” Secretary H. J. McCoy introduced Mr. Sankey. The famous singer proved his right to the title of speaker as well by an entertaining reminiscent talk about his labors and travels. He sang with pathos and force, though with somewhat less sweetness than of old, “Some Day We’'ll Understard,” pre- facing it with the life story of the author, several churches on this coast and in Den- ver. He told also of his finding the hymn, “Ninety and Nine,” in an old newspaper, and of his improvising the air while sing- ing to an audience in Scotland. When he sang the pathetic air many in his audience last evening were moved to tears. Kev. Dr. W. W. Gibson made an address full of humorous and pathetic allusions to his long frienship for Mr. Sankey. Mr. and Mrs. Stebbins sang Fanny Cros- by’s hymn, “Saved by Grace,” and Mr. Steobins sang ‘‘Homeland,” both efforts greatly pleasing their audience. Mr. Steb- bins’ voice unites, in a rare degree, sweet- ness and strength. At the close of the formal exercises the visiting evangelists repaired to the parlors, where, with Mrs. Sankey and Mrs. Steb- bins, they received those—and there were many—who desired to be presented. Mr. Sankey and Mr. Stebbins will be heard at the association at 3 p. M. to-mor- row, when they will address an audience of young men. At 6 P. M. they will speak to an audience of ladies and gentlemen at B Man Was Made to Mourn, Perhaps, but rheumatism need not add to the calamities to which we are more or less subject, when there is such an efficient means of counter- acting the dire complaint as Hostbtter's Stomach Bitters. When the liver, bowels or stomach are out of order, or the kidneys or nerves troublesome, he took Peter Jackson, the colored pugilist, round the country in “Uncle Tom’s Cabin.” This time he is the manager of John L.

If all the boxers were like Joe they would be an honor to the profession. I may make a match between him and Maher on my return.

If it were only as expeditious in pnssing other laws as it was in prohibiting fighting the country would be very much better off than it is to-day.” & : While Mr. Davies is known as ‘‘Parsen” all over the world there are not many peo- ple who can tell how he received the appellation. Davis was’ directing an ath- letic and boxing tournamentin Madison- square Gardens, New York, when William K. Vanderbilt asked: ‘“Who is that digni- fied gentleman there among the sports? He looks like a parson.” - “Oh, thatis Parson Davies,” replied a friend of the famous patron of sports. And the littie crowd went down to the ring and shook hands with the ‘‘parson.” A WAGNER CLUSTER. Some Good Music Given at the Sym- phony Orchestra’s Con- cert. The sixth popular concert of the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra was given yesterday afternoon in Golden Gate Hall to a thoroughly appreciative audience. All through the performance the music was good, but the Wagner cluster aroused more interest and applause than any other part of the programme. The overture to “The Flying Dutchman’’ was played in a dramatic and musicianly manner which aroused a strong demand for its repetition. The vorspiel to “Lohengrin” was a little more* rough, particularly as regards the strings, bat it was by no means an unsat- isfactory performance. W. H. Coivard’s playing of the “Song to the Evening Star” as a trombone solo fairly brought down the house. The player was accompanied by the piancforte and the strings. The from “‘Tannbauser,” which was ex- played, finished the Wagner cluster. The rest of the programme consisted of Becthoven's overture, ‘‘Egmont,’” and the good old “Intermezzo” from the ‘‘Caval- leria,” The latter has not lost a whit of its populanity evidentiy, for the audience insisted on its repetition. Miss Caroline Shindler, the voealist, was accompanied by the orchestra in the soprano recitation and romance from “William Tell,” and the musicians did good work in not overpowering the young lady’s pretty, childish voice. In the songs by Godard and Chadwick, which Miss Shindler sang with piano accompaniment, her upper notes, the best in her voice, were heard to good effect, but she in- dulged in the tremolo more than a vocalist is justified in doing if she wants to keep a freehold to her voice. On the 13th inst. the programme _of the symphony orchestra will include Beetho- ven'’s First Symphony. J. Hamilton Howe will, as usual, conduct. ——— END OF AN OLD SUIT.

MARY J. LINCOLN, Author Boston Cook Bwk.. FRE KICKS AND KISSES Dr. Jordan Addresses the Psychi- cal Society on Mental Evolution. A Free Will in the Same Category as Free Osculations and Recal- citrations. Dr. David Starr Jordan addressed the California Psychical Society on “The Evo- lution of Mind” at Golden Gate Hall last evening. Dr. Jordan said: The old psychology was based upon hypoth- eses. It1s notreceived with very much favor by the scholars of the day. The psychology of the present is in a sense an_exact science, that is as exact as a science can be. The ireedom of the will comes under the same category as the iree kick and free kiss. If you are permitted to kiss the osculatory act is free, otherwise not. The mind I would define as the sum total of mental activities. Psychic I would define as pertaining to the nerve forces. These defini- tions will suit our jurpose this evening. You will find that the funetion exists, al- though in a clumsy form perhaps, before the organ which discharges it. In other words there is thinking of some sort done before there | 1s a mind. | The consciousness bears about the same re- lation to mental effort that the flame does to fire. Of course there may be fire without flame, but when the fire is active there is sure to be flame. L Science knows nothing of immortality. The whole matter is outside the realm of psy- chology, or if not outside ];:ychnlngy it is with- out the science with which 1 am acquainted. You remember Ternyson's words to the flower he plucked from a cranny in the wall. We are in ll‘z)e same state of mind as he. Could we tell what that little flower is we could tell what man is. The tip of a plant is the sensitive part. It is the motive part. The brains and muscles of the plant are not segregated, therefore they may hardly be called brains and muscles. Dr. Jordan explained the structure and system of sensory nerves. “There is a necessity on the part of the lower animals of automatic obedience, and reflex action is a form such obedience takes in higher animals,” he said. ‘“Responses to the warnings of sensation become stereotyped and we call them instinct.” He contin- ued: The next step in animal rank is shown in the power, not of obedience to instinct, but to rise above such instinct and exercise choice. Intellect, I take it, is the ability to make a choice. Thataction is good which tends to the de- velopment of the person who periorms it or to the development of others. Sometimes that which is good for one person may be bad for another. Reconciliation of such divergent interests is one of the chief responsibilities of this life. Your ancestors have been good people, else you would not be here. x All nerve action is the resuit of information gained from the outside. The essential char- acter of nervous action is: First, the recep- tion of the information; second, its convey- ance to the brain; third, the result asshown in the influence upon the muscular portions. Impulses to action are the results of mem- ories either of the individual or of the race. Arrived Here Yesterday. [From a photograph taken by the Elite Gallery.] thrown off a train traveling forty miles an hour. We picked him up and he was senseless, His clothes were on fire, as some matches he had in his pocket ignited when he fell. He was cut and bruised frightfully, so that there was not a bit of his body the size of your hand that did not have a scar or bruise. We sewed up a long cut in his scalp on the train with piano wire, We had to wait until he re- covered.

The Coroner held inquests on five bodies yes- terday morning. In the case of S. M. Barton, who was drowned in & bathtub at the Lick Baths on the afternoon of the 2nd inst., the jury returned a verdict of accidental death. Verdiets of suicide were returned in the cases of William H. Byrnes, Gabriel Bishop and James Mack. Byrnes cut his throat with his pocket-knife at his parents’ home, 1939 Lex- ington street, on the 1st inst. Bishop took a uantity of rough on rats on the same day and 3had in the Receiving Hospital. Mack was brought from the Prescott House to the Re- ceiving Hospital suffering from opium poison, and died on the morning of the 2d inst.

Viso was found guilty yesterday before Judge Conlan of smuggling liquor into the City Prison. 3 When Mason’s bunk was searched yes- terday prior to his removal to the County Jail an old pair of overalls was found lit- erally stuffed with opium.
