St. Dunstin, the 7 to 5 choice, fin- ished third behind Early Notice. The post odds against Dolce were 4 to 1.

He opened an 11 to 5 choice, receding in the books until it was13 to 5 againsteither Walter or Doubtrul. = Macklin on the former bad his mount in tte lead after a quarter had been traveled, and he had no trouble in winning by balf alength from Brametta. All Smoke was third. The erratic Mt. McGregor II was the startling surprise in the seven-furlong spin. Going to the post 12 to 1, Jones had the big colt in front almost from the jump and he won romping in 1:28)4, with ‘Babe Murphy and Mobalasca, each at 6 to 5 in the ring, trailing in bebind in the order named. _Sam Hildreth’s chestnut gelding Wil- iam Pinkerton, was an even money chance for the fifth event over six furlongs, and leading the entire distance, passed the judges an easy winner by a length from Judge Denn am Leake, the 7to 5 second choice, ran disappointingly. The betting on the concluding race of the card was very open, there being no very pronounced choice. When the horses were called, Tim Murphy was first in de- mand at threes, with Service, Shieldbearer and Sir Richard fancied in the order named. Practically friendless, with 15to1 about him, old Toano headed Shieldbearer at the end of a quarter and cameina shifty winner, a scant length before Sery- ice. Tim Murphy was unplaced, Shield- bearer finishing in the show. Track and Paddock Items. The card for this afternoon is a grand one, seven well-filled events being down for decision. The feature of the day’s sport is the General Arthur cigar stake, at one mile and a sixteenth, with one of the greatest fields that has yet faced the starter at the meeting. Among the prob- able starters is the crack Libertine, asked to carry top weight—120 pounds. With Sister Mary, Installator, W heel of Fortune and Pepper also in, a new track record should come very near being hung up. W. L. Stanfield’s consistent gelding George Miller has placed so many races to credit that many racegoers have a cu- ansas City Hindoo”’ company with some of the “‘best of ’em.” He will be given an opportunity on the coming “ladies’ day”” at Ingleside. The management has arranged a special race at ive and a half furlongs, for a $1000 purse, weights to be 10 pounds below the scale. The starters with their weights will CL | be: Glenrge Miller 110, Libertine 113, Belli- Magnet 109 and Yankee Doodle 97. This event will excite more interest than any that has yet been given since the advent of the Eastern division. Dick Ledgett did some great ‘‘rooting’’ for Walter J when that colt was leading his field to the wire in the second race. Dick owns imp. True Briton, sire of the youngs:er, and is very proud of the black horse’s record as a getter of winners. George Barron, the wealthy young turf- man, has booked six of his mares tobe bred to Ledgett’s horse. Following is the list: Lottie L, Carasade, Monday mare, Fabiola; mare by Kingston and a mare by Judge McKinstry-Ursula. Sir Reel refused to break when the bar- rier was raised, and the stewards decided to refuse his entry in the future. PARDONED, BUT DYING. William Mugarrieta Has Only Escaped San Quentin to End His Life at Home. There was a sad scene at the Sausalito ferries yesterday when the steamer that connects with the San Quentin train srrived. A convict who had been pardoned by the Governor was on his way home to die. Justas he was being welcomed by his mother and sisters, a violent fit of coughing seized him, and a few minutes later blood was flowing from his mouth. A violent hemorrhage followed, and for a time it seemed as though he would die on the wharf. The police ambulance was summoned, but by the time it reached the ferries, the man had partially recovered and was driven home in » hack which his relatives had in readiness. The unfortunate man is William Mugar- rieta, and he was sent to San_Quentin in February, 1895, for robbery. Even at that time he was in very delicate state of health and his attorney made a strong plea on his vehalf. The Jud%e was inexorable, how- ever, and gave him the full seuntence. Ever since his relatives have been trying to get his term commuted. Governor Budd would not acquiesce until last Wednesday, when the prisoner had two hemorrhages. Warden Hale telegraphed the Governor that the man was dying and recommended his pardon. The Governor at once acted on the suggestion, and Mu- garrieta was set free. HINCNTHS AND VOLETS California State Floral Society Holds a Successful Ex- hibition. Exquisite Display of Bulbous Plants, Roses, Tulips and Wild Flowers. Tke California State Floral Society held a very successful meeting yesterday at the maple-room annex of the Palace Hotel. The display of flowers was varied and beautiful. Violets of gigantic size and deli- ! cate perfume were most in evidence, al- though the tall stems and white blossoms of the narcissus, together with muiti-col- ored roses, tulips, wila flowers and guanti- ties of bulbous plants, did much to com- plete the excellence of the exhibit. An entertaining paper on the iris was read by Mrs. 8. L. Walker. “The Iris Germanica,” said she, “should be in every garden—it is exceedingly beau- tiful and easy blooming. Buddhist.priests take a lively interest in the plant, and the Buddhist shrines are largely decorated with the iris. It should be sown early in the spring and will grow well in afy rich soil.” The treasurer was instructed to hereafter pay the premiums as_soon as awarded, in- stead of waiting until the awards are ap- proved by the board of directors. The advisability of introducing at the rext spring exhibition the feature of prac- tical demonstrators in the cultivation of plants was discussed. This will be for the benefit of amateurs, and the work of trans- ferring_planus, budding and grafting will be carried on by competent persons. The society hkas in progress a grand azalea show at the nurseries, at Lombard and Baker streets. The display of azaleas is =aid to be particularly fine. The thirteenth semi-annual exhibition or spring exhibition will be held at the Palace for three days, commencing Aprii- 30. Theentire east side of the hotel, which includes the ladies’ reception-rooms and Marble and Maple halis, will be devoted to the exhibit. The exhibits yesterday were: Native bulbs, twenty varieties, by Carl Purdy, Ukiah; Golden Gate violet, Professor Emory E. Smith; new extraordinary varie- ties of violets, Duchess of Marlborough and Princess of Penosa, grown by De La Roche. The following s;reminmu were awarded : For the new collection of violets, to Mrs. G. C. Ross of Belmont. For the best col- lectior of bulbous cut flowers, Mrs. E. Lewelling of San Lorenzo. . A Coventry firm 1s executing an order for 150 bicycles for the use of officers of the Salvation Army. REV, MONSIGNOR NUGENT, The Liverpool Divine Will Ar- rive in This City Next Week. WORKS FOR HOMELESS BOYS. How He Organized the Youth of Eng- land Into Great Temperance Bands. Very Rev. Monsignor Nugent of Liver- pool, England, is coming toSan Francisco. He is now at Los Angeles. There is a probability that he will accompany the Archbishop on the return of the prelate from the south the latter part of next week. The Monsignor will stay in San Francisco for a week or more. He will be the guest of the Archbishop while here. The Mon- signor is well known as a lecturer and writer. He is the editor of the Liver- pool Catholic Times, which is said to have the largest circulation and to be the most influential Catholic publication in the Eng- lish-speaking world. Monsignor Nugent is a canon of the ca- thedral of Liverpool. He has always been prominent in rescue work and social re- form in that city. He invested several thousand pounds of his personal estate in founding and maintaining a home for newsboys. He is regarded as one of the pillars of the diocese ot Liverpool and was a great favorite with the late Bishop of Laverpool. He is idolized by the people and a great favorite with all classes by reason of his broad and tolerant religious views. Though advanced in years he is exceed- ingly active and bis mental faculties are unimpaired. In persoral relations with all he is simplicity and directness personi- fied. He bas always been very charitable, but is recognized asanable financier. None of his charitable enter%rises has been known to fall through by reason of poor management. ; Monsignor Nugent is perhaps the best known and most popular man in Liverpool of Irish ancestry; he is a great favorite with the sons of Erin who form so consid- erable a_proportion of the city’s popula- tion, while Englishmen, whether Catholic or Protestant, look upon him with much favor. His charities, so wise in their ad- ministration and so tar-reaching in their results, have endeared him to the hearts of all. He was the first to establish the League of the Cross in England. This organization has enjoyed a wonderful rowth in that country, and has spread to fimerica, where numerous bands of young temperance workers are springing up. It is after the English organization that the League of the Cross in San Franecisco was planned. Monsignor Nugent will doubtless receive a warm reception from the Irish and Catholic people of San Francisco. Already the officers of the League of the Cross are considering arrangements for his re- ception. IN THE QUIET SEASON, Elaborate Preparations for the Verein Bal Poudre This Evening.

H. Jewett entertained a’limited number of friends at a card party at her residence, corner of Bush and Jones streets. Every entertain- mentover which Mrs. Jewett presides, elabor- ate or simple, is always characterized by some original and’ delighiful novelty.

There was a large and fashionable asse: blage at Odd Fellows’ Hall last evening to tend the regular monthly entertainment and dance given by that popular club, The Native Sons of Vermont. The programme, literary and musical, at these aftairs is always of & high degree of ex- cellence, but last evening’s entertainment by far surpassed any given by this organization this season. After an orchestral overture Alired G.Sanders gave with deliciouseffect the humorous recita- tion *‘How Rub{ Played.” Monroe N. Callen- der followed with a cornet solo, after which Miss Ida Valerga “nf with exquisite taste the celebrated cavatina from “Rovert la Diable.” The selections by the Press Club male quartet were received with enthusiasm, as was also ll\{"'l Inez Sexton Hutton’s song, “Forbidden nsic.’” “Six Months Ago,” & charming comedietta, with Harry E. de Lasaux, Thomas Irwin and Miss Minnie Perry in the cast, concluded the evening’s programme, after which the floor was cleared for dancing.

On Monday the compliment -of the marine band from the flagship Philadelohia was tendered, and a delightful hour’s concert was given un- der the palm trees upon the grand front of Ho- tel del Coronado. The verandas and balconies in keepin were filled with gay life, and many pictur- esque little groups were formed under neigh- boring palm trees. Mrs. Daniel E. Hayes and daughters, the Misses Hayes, have closed a delightful season at Coronado, which extended through many weeks, and have returned to San Francisce. Mrs. H. D. Underwood of Mare Island, with her child and maid, is at Coronado and is en- Jjoying the social life and glorious weather.

Sheriff Whelan took formal possession of sixteen pieces of property belonging to John T. Hill, the millionaire mining man who kept a record of his periods of hilarity in a “jag book,” yesterday on attachments issued in a suit begun by Charles P. Har- ris, the Pine-street stockbroker. This property consists of business blocks on Battery, Sansome, Broadway and other downtown streets and is said to be worth $500,000. Several years ago Hill, who is now president of the Benton Consclidated Mining Company, was one of the heaviest operators on Pine street and carried heavy blocks of stock in many then prominent mines. Through his speculating he be- came indebted to Harris to the extent of several thousand dollars, the latter carry- ing him at times when funds for margins were not readily available. About a year ago Harris asked fora settlement, but as the mining man was not in funds at the time he persuaded Harris to take notes to the extent of over $18,000 at 7 per cent in- terest. One of these notes, amounting to $1000, fell duein August last, and a suit on it is still pending. Day before yesterday notes for $8388 became due, and as the coin was not forthcoming suit was begun. Hill is said to be heavily involved and the Hibernia Savings and Loan Society holds mortgages, executed in 1894, on his real estate to the extent of $250,000, nearly all of which has been invested in mining ventures. Attorney George W. Schell, who repre- sents Harris in the litigation, said last evening that while the mortgage held by the Hibernia Bank was a_heavy one, there was little doubt that the property was worth far more than the obligation, and that the notes would be satisfied before the attachments were released. Harris also holds other notes against Hill to the ex- tent of $8500. TRUNK LINE IN CHINA. Colonel Jefferds Proposes to Build a Road 1400 Miles Long ¥rom Peking to Canton. Colonel M. R. Jefferds of New York, who has been six months'in China in reference to the building of a grand trunk, north and south railroad, is at the Palace. The road is to be 1400 miies long and extend from Peking to Hankow, and thence to Canton. Colonel Jefferds claims to have raised 10,000,000 taels in support of the road al- ready. He says, however, that the Chi- nese, as yet having had no experience with railroads, are not fully assured that railways are beneficial to the country. They inve suggested that be see the Chi- nese merchants here, and if they are will- ing to commend the road and aid it in every way they can, they will come to the front and subscribe more. A tael is $1 35, Mexican money. Through Prince Kung, Superintendent of Military Affairs, and Prince Ch’ng, the assistant, representing the Emperor of China, Colonel Jefferds received a docu- ment somewhat in the nature of a conces- sion, and nutborlzinfi_ him to po ahead with his enterprise. The cost of the road is estimated to be 40,000 taels a mile. However, only the section from Peking to Hankow, a distance of 750 miles, is to be at first considered. The cafpitul stock is to consist of 100,000 shares of 100 taels each. Colonel Jefterds, after being here a week, will go to New York and Londen in the interest of his enterprise. A large portion of the route proposed is over almost level plains. ———— Baldwin Theater. It is announced that in consequence of the success of *“A Milk White Fiag at the Baldwin Theater, a performance will be given every Sunday night during the run of the piece. Loss of Blood and Dropsy. From the Nugget, Chehalis, Wash. The neighbors called her a walking corpse. For fifteen years she had suffered from loss of blood and Jm sy. She had not the strength to nd alone. She hed spent thousands of dol- lars with the doctors and haa been unable to find relief. Her case was considered hopeless. That is the expérience of Mrs. C. Reed, a well- known lady of Chehalis, Wash. A Nugget reporter called upon her at her home last Tuesday. She was willing to be in- terviewed, she said, if sbe could be the means of pointing out to other unfortunates the way to recovery and good health. “It _has been oyer fifteen years since the malady asserted itself,” said Mrs. Reed. “Since then, until within the last few months, I never knew what it was to be well for a single day. I could not sleep. My appetite went away and I began to lose flesh. This continued for years. 1 became so weak I could not upon myself. I had to have the help of others to dress und undress, even to walk from one room to another. I lost all my strength. In addition I had dropsy of the blood. My limbs were swollen and nothing I could do seemed to afford me relief. The doc- tors said I must take iron to strengthen and invigorate my blood. I took iron—took it by the %wule and by the box; took itmorning, noon and night; but it did no good and I had e. an account of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People. I thought this fitted my case exactly and I tried to get some of the pills. They were not keptat the drug- stores here and I had to send to Olympi They came finally. however. Ibegan to take them and experienced relief immediately. 1 sent for two more boxes to the Dr. Williams’ Company at Schenectady, N. Y., and by the time I had taken them I felt like a new woman.

There was an enthusiastic gathering of students of‘ Berkeley and Stanford uni- versities last night at the California Hotel, the occasion being the formation of two chapters of the non-secret college society, Delta Upsilon. The society’ hitherto has bhad no members on the Pacific Coast, and the proceedings marked an event. The Rev. Thornton B. Penfield of New York, a representative of the executive committee of the National Council of the fraternity, was present to initiate the -members of the two chapters. President Jordan of Stanford was also present to help the young men out in any wag he could. There were grave speeches and college songs, and when this part of the programme had been completed twenty-three Berkeley and twenty-one Stanford students had been initiated. Then everybody adjourned to the banquet hall. There a great spread had been pre- pared. The blue and gold colors of the college students were displayved in the violets and poppies which formed a large vart of the decorations. It had been arranged for President Jor- dan_to act as toastmaster, and his speech setting forth the good points of the Delta Upsilons was greeted with enthusiastic cheers.
