THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, APRIL 30, 1896. WED BY THE ARCHBISHoP ¥ Nuptials of Miss Isabel Cohn and Ernest Brandt Yester- day. COVERS WERE LAID FOR FORTY Mrs. Whittell Entertains a Large Party of Ladies at a Rose Luncheon. One of the prettiest weddings of the season was that of Miss Isabel Cohn and Ernest Brandt celebrated yesterday at noon at the residence of the bride’s uncle, M. H. de Young, 1919 California street. 1t was a simple wedding, but the very ab- sence of all ostentation made the cere- mony all the more impressive. The en- tire ground floor of the De Young resi- dence was placed at the disposal of the wedding guests and lavishly yet artistic- ally decorated with flowers. In the drawing-room a bower of Glazen- wood Beauty roses was erected from which dangled numberless tiny wedding bells. The bower was triangular and novel in shape, and the effect of the whole was one of surpassing beauty. At noon the bridal party entered, keeping time to the bridal chorus from “*Lohengrin” chanted by seven young ladies. First came the maid of honor, Miss Ida Callaghan, followed immediatety by the fair young bride leaning on the arm of her | uncle, M. H. de Young. The groom and his best man, George Heazelton, met the bridal party at the im- provised altar, where Archbishop Riardon read the ceremony which made Belle Cohn and Ernest Brandt husband and wife. After the ceremony a wedding breakfast was served in the ballroom. The tables were all decorated with orange blossoms and covers were laid forone hundred. The bride wore a handsome white satin yn. The jupe was made full and flow- and the corsage trimmed with lace, ued in chiffon over the satin. A bridal tened to the coiffure by a wreath of blossoms completed the handsome a Callaghan, the maid of honor. wore gown of yellow taffeta, pompadour g was attired in & magnificent wn of black lace over & green silk foun- amie Dean wore a modish gown, the b ‘was fashioned of white moire, sage of white chiffon and pompa- e of yesterday is one of the most women in society.

Mr. Brandt is largely interested in mines in San Andreas, Calaveras County, and it is there the young couple will spend the summer months, On Tuesday afternoon Mrs. Whittell gave an elaborate luncheon at her new home on Cali- fornia street. Forty ladies enjoyed a delicious menu seatea at a table shaped like & Maltese cross and artistically decorated with roses— | pink, snading into deep red. This is the first entertainment Mrs. Whittell hasgiven in her elegant new home, and her guests were lavish in their praises of the hand- some apartments and exquisite furnishings. Mrs. Whittell’s guests included Mrs. Grant, Mrs. Cunningham, Mrs. Dr. Hopkins, Mrs. Tatum, Mrs. Welsh, Mrs. A. oore, Mrs. George Howard, Mrs. William Woods, Miss Wood, Mrs. Darling, Mrs. Garness, Mrs. A.

The first part of the evening was passed in rouud dancing. At10 o'clock a signal for the cotillon was given. It was led by Sanford G.

The elub will begin its seventh season early next winter. The young ladies were all hand- somely attired, and the gathering was & most enjoyable, successtul and brilliant affair. |{AN ANGRY DRESSMAKER Mrs. Jane de Bouchor Arrested for Obtaining Money by False Pre- tenses. Mrs. Jane de Boucher, who conducts a school of dressmaking at 121 Post street, was arrested on a warrant yesterday after- noon charging her with obtaining money by false pretenses. The complaining witness is Miss Nellie Sorgenfrey, who claims that she paid Mrs. de Boucher $70 to teach her the art of dressmaking. After a few days she be- manded the return of the $70, which she alleged Mrs. de Boucher refused to do. Mrs. de Boucher was indignant over her arrest. Borgenfrey for $40 of the amount and said she had returned ber other small sums. She denied owing the young lady any- thing, “It is nothing but a - blackmailing scheme,’’ said Mrs. de Boucher. “There was no need for me to practice dishonesty. as my husband and I are worth $150,000. Idon’t see why I should be detained here, as it is an outrage. I have several en- gagements this afternoon and must keep them.” She was released on $300 bonds. "THE CALL” RACING CHART. fine.

FIVE FAVORITES WERE BEATEN Crescendo Beaten in a Drive by Ca- brillo — Greyhurst Tock a $1100 Stake Event. The California Jockey Club certainly gave racegoers the worth of their coin yesterday. Eight events at various dis- tances were down for decision, and it was with a sigh ot relief, thankful, no dount, that they were alive, that the crowd started for home at the conclusion of the day’s entertainment. It was the last day of the Bay District's two weeks’ meeting, and the revelations of the ‘‘dope’ book were set at defiance. Horses that in the past have been dead, or existing merely in a comatose condition, suddenly came to life, while others ran as though fit sub- jects for the Coroner. Three winning favorites out of eight easily explains the cause of the speculating fraternity’s down- fall. One of the most unexpected dumps of the day was the defeat of Crescendo in the mile and a furlong handicap, with but six starters. The big chestnut was exten- sively supported at odds of 4 to 5 and even money, and bad to acknowledge defeat at the hands of R.Van Brunt’s uncertain performer, Cabrillo, with odds of 7 to 1 about him 1n the ring. The outsider was the pacemaker through- out the running, trailed by the.iavorite, and although hard ridden through the stretch Crescendo nad to bow to the in- evitable by half a length at the wire. The winner’s time for the distance was 1:5514: The 4 to 1 second choice, Wheel of For- tune, with Marty Bergen in the saddle, came from the far rear the last three fur- longs, finishing a goed third. The Bay District handicap for two-year- olds, at six furlongs, drew out seven {)oungswu and proved a gift for the El + Primero _stable’s pair, Greyhurst - and Fleur de Lis, who ran one, two. Four to five was the general price laid against the duo. Thae stable wanted to win with Grey- hurst, and his stable companion traveled under “wraps.” The gray shook Dolce off after a quarter had been covered and passed the wire, ridden out, three parts of & length before Fleur de Lis in 1:153;. Hohenzollern, one of the lightweights of the party, was a close third, Dr. Rowell’s recent purchase, Claude Hill, romped in the easiest of winners in the opening five and a half furlong scram- ble, with twelve starters, at odds of 6 to 1. Isabelle took the ylnce. something over a length ahead of Yreka. Myron at 24 to 1 ruled favorite in the betting. A mile run under selling conditions that followed furnished an opportunity for Jack Richelien to win a purse. The old horse held sway in the betting at odds of 81t0 5, and heading his field before striking the stretch, passed the wire an easy win- ner, in 1:44. Imp. Fullerton Lass took the place from Polaski in a drive. Fourteen cheap-selling platers started in the third event at five and a half furlongs. The winner turned up in Ruinart, backed down from 25 t08 to 1, ridden_by Marty | Bergen. Favory, a 12 to 1 shot, finished in the place. Nic Nac, the 9 to 5 choice, was unplaced. Another mile run that followed the two- year-old stake put one more crimp in the talent. Rebellion, who was third to Heartsease and Senator Bland on the pre- vious day, took the lead below the furlong pole from home and won like a veritable stake horse. Miss Ruth, an outsider, was second, with the favorite Long Lady third. The winner went to the pos: 4 to 1 in the books. Tim Murphy carried the shekels in the seventh race, over eix furlongs, starting a 6to 5 chance. He showed the way into the stretch and then faded away to noth- ing. Sea Spray then passed Elmer F, who had been running in second place, and beat him out a length. The ring laid 5 to 1against the winner. The Burns & Waterhouse entry, Good- win II, starting at odds of 7 to 5, won the concluding fiveand a half furlong scramble, i@dden out, a length before Wandering Nun. R A TRACK AND PADDOCK ITEMS, - Ingleside track will throw open its gates for the public’s patronage again to-day and the change will be welcomed by all, for the sport at the old track was rapidly becoming shop-worn and musty. Not that officials in the stand were not vigilant in the exercise of their duties, but they were combating against influences over which they had no control. Ingleside has been noted since its opening for clean and hon- est,sport, and its management will en- deavor to keep it up to a high standard of excellence during the present meeting. As formerly the occasion of the openin, will be ladies’ day. The card is a go one and the ‘‘regulars” will no doubt be out 1n full force. The California Jockey Club has offered a reward of $500 for the detection of the person or persons implicated in the De- cision and Marjorie affairs. A noted astronomer once endeavored to discover whether or not the man in the moon wore whiskers. Itis to_be hoped the culprits will be brought to justice. Ruinart and Road Warmer have been matched under the same weights and con- ditions as carried in yesterday’s race and over the same distance for $500 a side. The owners of each horse posted a forfeit of $200 last evening. Bozeman was set down for fifteen days for aride on Mirambo thatdid not suit the judges. The showing made by Cabrillo was a ruarked improvement over his race on April 25, and Trainer Murry was asked for an explanation. Murry said that on that occasion the horse was started against his approval; that yesterday he told Owner Van Brunt to. give the jockey the instructions him- seIE and that he personally did not bet a cent on the racer, but played Crescendo. Mr. Van Brunt backed his horse, however, showing conclusively that it is not always the trainer thatis the wisest. ‘What a world of good Tuesday’s race did Rebellion. Yesterday he ran like a stake horse. Crescendo pulled up lame at the conclu- sion of his race and 1t was thoughthe had broken down. About a furlong from the wire he way struck on the nigh fore ankle by Cabrillo, and on examination later by a veterinary showed that the injury was only trifling. 5 Jockey Shaw, who was set down at the last Ingleside meeting for a ride on Gold Bug that did not suit Judge Murphy,shoula be given another trial. It is not always the “kick” of a disgruntled member of the bookmaking fraternity that constitutesa poor ride. Marty Bergen gut up about as poor a ride on' Wheel of Fortune as that good mare has ever had. Four miles and she might have been in il PATROLMEN PUNISEED. One Is Dismissed ¥rom the Force and ‘Two Others Are Heavily Fined. The Police Commissioners 'had four patrolmen before them last night on vari- ous charges. Joel L. Stoddard and William Doran were charged by Captain Gillen and Lieu- tenant Burke with being in a saloon on the Ingleside road for twenty-five minutes while on duty. The charge was sustained, and Stoddard was dismissed from the force, and Doran was fined §50. Stoddard is the policeman who gave evidence in the Ingleside holdup case as to picking up Middlemiss, one of the defendants, who was drunk, and_riding downtown with him on an electric car. This was the third time since then that Stoddard had been up before the Commis- sioners. Cornelins Rial was charged by Captain Spillane with failing to report at a fire and with being under the influence of liquor. It being the first offense he was let off with a fine ot $100. A charge of unofficerlike conduct pre- ferred by Fred Junker, a butcher, against Herbert D. Mathewson, was dismissed. e A WELL-FILLED HOUSE. The Girls’ Union Benefit at Golden Gate Hall a Success.

Selvage on the Struggles Oregon Merchants Are Making. OVERDUE TERMINAL RATES. The Controlling Ambition of the Peo- ple of Humboldt Is, He Says, for a Railroad. T. H. Selvage, ex-District Attorney of Humboldt County and grana councilor of the order of Chosen Friends of Cali- fornia, is a recent arrival here. iIn speaking of the general conditions of the northern part of the State, Mr. Selvage said: - “I kave resided in Humboldt County since my boyhood and have a very warm regard for its peopls and a deep interest in its future prosperity. I know of no place where the man with moderate means can better secure for himself a home from which he can abundantly provide for his family all the necessaries of hfe. “Qur fruit and dairy lands are exten- sive and very productive and only need the energy and labor of the small farmer to make our county one of the richest in the State. It is true we are somewhat isolated and cannot easily reach railroad centers by land, but we have an excellent steamship service between this City and Eureka. On the steamship Pomona one can make the trip between the two ports in seventeen hours. ¢1“Our mail service by steamship is good, but by land it is inexcusably bad. THE CaLL by the overland mail reaches us at any time within one month after it leaves the press. ‘‘There has been considerable discussion between our people and the merchants of San Francisco of late over our trade rela- tions. Portland is reaching out for busi- ness along the northern coast, and has extended its trade as far south as Eureka. Its merchants have secured considerable business with our Eeeple. Our Chamber of Commerce has taken an active interest in promoting these trade relations. The reason for this action is not, as some peo- le think, inspired by an unkind feeling or San Francisco or her people. The trade with Portland is favored, in order to provoke competition between the trans- portation companies, that we may secure terminal rates from our port to inland and Eastern markets. { ‘‘At the present time we are unable to ship our lumber products to the interior and Eastern markets because of the high rates of transportation from our port to railroad communication with the East. Termival rates for Humboldt Bay either by way of San Francisco or of Portland would secure to us the same advantages in the cost of transportation of products as is now enjoyea by those cities. “We must have terminal rates from one way or the other. The direction from which it comes will of course secure our trade. ‘A transcontinental railway with a western terminus at Eureka would bring about the same results we are now looking for in the direction I have mentioned. Such a railway is of course the greatand controlling ambition of our people. *‘With the improved condition of our | bar and harbor resulting from the expen- sive and successful work now being done by the Government we will have a harbor second @nly to San Francisco. The asser- tion was made editorially in THE CALL re- cently that such a railroad meant connect- ing steamers direct to the Orient and that such an accomplishment presented grave questions for San Francisco. 1 believe, however, that there never can be any seri- ous rivalry between this City and Eureka resulting from such a road, as no trans- continental road will ever make Eureka its sole terminus, leaving the great Sacra- mento Valley and S8an Francisco trade to other lines. "I have heard it said that San Francisco needs a comgating railroad. The transcontinental road that has for its western termini San Franciscoand Eureka will be a blessing to the whole coast and a mutual advantage to both ports,” St R PO AN INSOLVENT ESTATE. Mrs. Julia Fratinger Wants to Settle for Twenty-Five Cents on the Doilar. Julia Fratinger has filed an account of her husband’s estate, and it tells a tale of insolvency. A.M. Fratinger, the deceased, was a well-known cloakmaker of this City and when he died, about two years ago, it was known that his estate was insolvent.
