RECEPTION IN THE “DEN” Chris Buckley Other Than He Is Generally Knowa to the State. CHRIS JR. RULES HIS FATHER. How the Resident of Livermore Dif- fers Frem the Politician of San Francisco. OARLAND OFFICE SAN FrANCISCO CALL,) 908 Broadway, April 29. | Buckley, the politician. Very few ever give a thought to Cnris Buckley, the lord of the manor at Ravenswood. “I would give $100,000 to look for one minute at my boy!”’ It was Chris Buck- ley, the lord of Ravenswood, who spoke, and after he had uttered the words a tear rolled from his sightless eyes. Chris Buckley, the San Francisco voli- tician, is known to all Californians, and his alleged machinations have been given to the whole world through newspapers who are opposed to bhis policy. But it was not the Chris Buckley of the City Hall who spoke. Forget for a moment that Buckley ever knew a Supervisor or a city official; forget that his name was ever associated with any schemes that came under the piercing eyes of grand juries; remember that the man’s most powerful enemies to-aay were for- merly his friends and supporters or were supported through him, and that conse- quently their judgment of his doings may be a little warped; remember that he was but the center of a storm of indignation that enveloped others as completely as he; carry out these suggestions and invest the blind father with a mantle of charity and human sympathy, and then think for half a moment of the awful significance of the parent’s heartrending desire as he said: “I would give $100,000 just to look for one minute at my bo; The husband and parent at Ravenswood is a very agreeable and interesting man to meet. If visited in the forenoon, as he was recently, he will invariably be found walking in his garden, arm in arm with his wife, for the owner of Ravenswood de- lights to walk among his trees and shrubs to enjoy their perfume and to hear his faithiul partner tell of that which he can- not see. To everybody but the Assessor, however, the undisputed Lord of Ravenswood is Chris Buckley Jr.—the child whom his father has never seen. He it is to whom the father referred when he made the re- mark already quoted. Young Chris is the great source of com- fort and solace that compensates for the terrible loss of pleasure that his father ex- periences by not being able to enjoy the visible beauties of his luxurious home. There is a “den” at Ravenswood. It is a beautiful apartment that the fatner owns, the boy controls, and that both parents and the child enjoy. Thereisa handsome library in it, and a well-stocked sideboard. On the center-table are the daily papers and the magazines. Under- neath the table and in various places usu- ally held sacred from such debasement are drum-sticks, blocks, rubber lizards and borses and picture-books. They belong to Chris junior, and bis childish disregard of decorum does not disturb his father—he does not see it. He only knows that his boy is happy and that he has been told he is a pretty child, and like parents who can see for themselyes he firmly believes it. For hours each day the father devotes himself to his boy. He teaches him verses, tells him little stories, listens attentively to all the lively prattle and baby elocution, and is at once his friend, father and in- structor. The Buckleys live very quietly and un- ostentatiously in their beautiful home. Occasional entertainment of San Fran- cisco friends take place, and these are always royal events. At Livermore Chris Buckley is all but worshiped, He has enlisted the good will and Iriendship of all of Livermore Valley’s residents and those with whom he has had dealings. But then, Chris has not worried himself apout Alameda County politics and does not register from here. Mr. Buckley was asked how he came to seitle in Livermore Valley, so far away from the center of his political work. “I expect it was through the hospitality of my old friend, Assemblyman Joseph Black, pow dead. Visiting him often, I very soon discovered that the air here refreshed me, and that the climale the year around was most delightful. I have traveled all over this State, into every nook and corner of it, and 1 say in all sincerity I never found a climate that suits me so well as that which. I enjoy in this valley. We are | All the State is taking a daily increasing | Dever get any of it. Do you know, these interest in the reported doings of Chris | iobbers are the curse of the business, | ture will build their homes here then. Ravenswood, Chris Buckley’s Beautiful Residence Near Livermore, and Its Owner. | handy to San Francisco, and the prospect is brightening for more railroads in the valley and better and guicker communica- tion with the bay. This will supply the great need of our valley. Hundreds of San Francisco’s men of wealth and cul- I have lived here eleven years. 1t was rather funny, the way I came to christen this place Ravenswood. When the first house was nearing completion the builder insisted that we should have a christen- ing. Icould not think of a name, so the carpenter told me to think of the most | beautiful place I had ever seen. My mind went back to my childhood days and I thought of a charming bit of landscapp on Long Island. It was called Ravenswood, and so a bottle of wine was broken and my place had a name.” 1n addition to being a politician and the head of a beautiful home, Chris Buckley is also greatly interested in wine-growing. He was asked about the future of the wine industry of Livermore Valley and replied: “‘The prospects are brightening. Here we are free from phylloxera. The vineyardsof Napa and Sonoma are doomed. The reputation and demand for California wines, especially Livermore Valiey wines, is on the increase. With a dimishing sup- ply and a growing market there can be but one result. Those who will stay with the business intelligently and faithfully are sure to win. If my advice were sought as to what vines to plant, I should say, plant to quantity. There is absolutely no profit in high-class wines. I have in my cellar the choicest of aged wineg, that have probably cost me $1 a gallon, for which jobbers are offering me 20 cents. If I must give it away, those people will They are a worse nuisance than phyl- loxera.” “And as to politics?"” ““Politics never enter here,” replied Mr. Buckley. Then Chris Jr. rushed into the *“‘den” with a new flower that he had just found 'and asked his father to tell him all about it. The little child cannot Vet understand why his father always feels for his mother’s arm or why he asks her so much that little Chris can see for himself. Such is Chris Buckley of Ravenswood— not of 8an Francisco or Sacramento. THE WHEEL MWD GLOVE A New Six-Lap Board Track Has Been Completed at Central Park, OLYMPIC CYCLERS' RACE. Everything Ready fer the Boxing Tournament—George Maxwell the Probable Referee. The new six-lap board track being con- structed in Central Park was completed vesterday, and has already been given one coat of pale blue paint to beautify it, and pumice to prevent its being slippery. It | will be ready for use to-morrow, and thereaiter the wheelmen of San Francisco will have one of the fastest and safest tracks in the City to train and race upon. Those who have seen it pronounce it per- fect in every respect, and the banking of thie curves wili make high speed quite pos- sible and perfectly safe. The Camera Club Cyclists will journey to Haywards next Sunday, where they will be the guests of E. G. Zeille. Those who take their wheels will go on the 8:30 A. M. boat, and those who may be so incumbered with cameras as to make wheelir.g impracticable will takethe9 . ». boat and electric car to destination. The Olympic Cyclers will hold a five- mile handicap road race over the San Ma- teo-San Carlos course next Sunday. The riders will be started promptly at12 u. in front of President Eaton’s residence in San Mateo. S The following are the entries; the handi- caps will not be made known until Sun- day: George W. Tantau, Roy Barney, F. B. Bretz, J. W. Coffroth, T.E. Rodolph, Howard Smith, A. E. Pollexfem, C. B. Sloan, S. B. Pauson, Milton Hayes, G. 8. McComb, 8. I. Blake, R. L. Eaton, P. A. Dumphy, J. P.

After the race the club members will be the guests of President Eaton of the Olympic Clubat his grounds in San Mateo, where lunch will be spread sufficient for all, and a jolly time is assured the cyclers. Entry b:anks are out for the National Circuit race meet to be held by the Gar.en City Cyclers at their three-lap cement track in San Jose on Saturday, May 9. The events and prizes are as follows: —Gold medal $25, silver e-mile scratch, amateur—Gold 5, Suit to order $25, bicycle suit, $10: ‘mile handicap, amateur—Suit to 5, diamond locket $25, trousers $10; thirds prolessional—Cash e handicap, 3 cash $15. The entries close with the secretary of the club, George W. Pollard, next Satur- day evening, and must be in'his hands by that time.

Emll, a Descendant of the Famous Marshal, Gets Mixed Up in a Barrogm Fight. Emil Ney, who claims he is a descendant of the famous Marshal Ney, got mixed up in a hot political argument with the bar- | tender in a saloon at 529 Sacramento street on Tuesday evening. It ended in the landlord and bartender throwing Ney out of the saloon. In doing so Ney stumbled and sprained his left ankle. He asked Policeman McGovern to take him to the Receiving Hospital in the patrol-wagon, but, instead, McGovern took him to the California-street station and booked him on the charge of “‘drunk.” Ney sent for a messenger-boy and gave him a message to take to the hospital. He wrote that his ankle was sprained, and he wanted the ambuulance to call for him. Having no smaller change, he gave the boy a 50-cent piece, expecting that he would return with the ciange after delivering the message. The boy neither delivered the message nor returned with the change. Yesterday morning, after Ney had been taken to the City Prison, he complained of the pain in his ankle. and he was sent to the hospital, where his injury was at- tended to. Later he was sent to the City and County Hospital, 5 Ney gaye the police a description of the messenger-boy, who will be arrested for misdemeanor and embezzlement. ——————— The Wrong Man Stabbed. John Forsbery,a marine fireman living in Alameda, happened to be on East street last evening while two men were fighting outside asaloon. One of the men ran into the saloon, and the other, mistaking Forsbery for his an. tagonist, stabbed him in the abdomen with & penknife. When he discovered his mistake ne disappeared. Forsbery was taken to the Receiving Hospital. The wound is not serious. R Retained the Money. Barbara Lambrecht, 251 Third street, swore out & warrant in Judge Low’s court yesterday for the arrest of Attorney George F. Hoffer, on the charge ot misdemeanor embezzlement, She alleges that on February 12 she gave Hoffer $20 to institute a suitin the Justice’s Court, but he had not done so and refused to Teturn the money. | W.

Hatton and They have been south all winter trying for records, | and have been quite successtul. _The team has come here to join the Na- tional racing circuit, which will begin to- morrow at the Fabiola Floral Fete, Oak- land, the other dates in California being: Banta Rosa, May 2; San Jose, May 9; 8an Francisco, May 16; Santa Monica, May 23, R. M. Welch of the National racing board will act as referee at the Fabiola meet to-morrow. Sanford Plumuer, cap- tain of the Bay City Wheelmen, will serve in the same capacity at Santa Rosa to-day, to-morrow and Saturday. The directors of the Olympic Club met last evening and made final arrangements for the boxing carutval, which will be held at the Pavilion on Friday evening. Twenty- five hundred tickets have been sold al- ready, and the club expects “a full house’ when the first bout will be called. ‘There seems to be some difficulty in se- lecting a referee. Hiram Cook and Al King were suggested, but George Green objected to one of the men and Ziegler ¢id not fancy the other. A member who keeps well informed on all matters that pertain to boxing, said that the man who, in all probability, will be selected to pass judgment on the box- ers is George Maxwell of the Olympic Club. Maxwell is thoroughly conversant with the game, and as he nas_had considerable experience he should give general satis- faction. Jack Bourdett will hold the watch for Ziegler and Jack Walsh may be selected by Green as his timer. The boxing com- mittee will announce to-day the names of the men who will act as timers for the club. The combination mentioned CaLr of last Saturday 1s being played strongly at 5 to 1. The combination is Green, Hawkins, Van Buskirk and Sul- livan. The odds are 10 to 8 that Green will de- feat Zeigler. The first bout of the even- ing will be called at 8:30 o’clock sharp. g‘he following tug-of-war team has been selected by Professor George Miechling of the Olympic Club for the tug-of-war con- test at Central Park on Saturday next, in Tue viz.: Jackson, Buckley, Schmidt LEGALLY SEPARATED. The Martial Troubles of Mr. and Mrs, Marks Ended and Lieutenant Blish Exonerated. Some weeks ago there was a sensation in society and navy circles when John L. Marks instituted a suit for divorce against his wife on the ground of infidelity and named Lieutenant John B. Blish, U.S. N., now stationed at Panama, as co-re- spondent. 2 Mrs. Marks strenuously denied the alle- gation, and threatened to bring a counter suit for divorce from her husband on various grounds. Marks discovered afterward that the evidence upon which he relied to sub- stantiate his charges was untrustworthy, and Judge Slack denied the patition for divorce. The troubles between husband and wife have now been settled out of court. A legal separation upon the demand of TS, Marks was effected. She was given the custody of her little boy and granted a suitable allowance. MIDWEEK THEATER NOTES Achille Rivarde’s Concert This Evening at the Co- lumbia. McDaniels, and Butler. Maboney, ‘“Elks’ Night” at the Tivoli—*Beau Brummell” 2t the Baldwin—Oth-r Attracticns. Musical people are on the qui vive in anticipation of Achille Rivarde’s concert to-night at the Columbia. The famous Spanish violinist is to ve assisted by other artists and a picked orchestra, and the | concert promises to be a notable event. The programme, as thus far arranged, is as follows: Overture, “Midsammer Night's Dream” ... 5 Mendel: ohn Orchestra. Scherzo”.... Noet'.. nald de V.

Dvorak Monday evening Morrison’s famous company in a grand spectacular presenta- tion of Goethe’s “Faust” will be the Columbia’s attraction. The piece is said to be a magnificent production. On Sun- day afternoon Congreve’s famous comedy, *‘Love for Love,” will be given by a com- pany of amateurs composed of students of the State University. ‘‘Bluebeard’’ still reigns in grimly comic fashion at the Tivo'i, and no one as yet seems tired of his sway. To-night a testi- monial benefit will be tendered the fa- vorite comedian, Thomas C. Leary, at which the Elks will be present. A special feature of the performance will be a friendly set-to between Joe Choynski and Eddie Greany, while favorite actors from the other theaters will appear. The sale of seats has been very large. Last night’s production of “The Story of Rodion the Student”” at the Balawin was | meritorious in most respects and some passages were wsrml‘_Y applauded. To- night ‘‘Beau Brummell” will be given. and since it is said to be one of Richard Mans- field’s best the sale of seats has been good. Miss Beatrice Cameron and Miss Florance Ethel do their work well; but one or two other members of the cast could easily be dispensed with. Mrs. Auzerais Hoyte continues to bask in the sunshine of favor at the Alcazar. Her methods in *‘My Son-in-law,”” while leaving room for improvement, are by no means lacking in fine touches. The Grovers and Mr. Foster, with Miss Aubrey, form a capaple support for Mrs. Hoyt, and the general result is pleasing. The Orpheum’s “Midgets'’ are a draw- ing card, their wonderful evolutions call- ing forth bursts of applause nightly. Ed- ward and Josie Evans in their comic spe- cialties are very good, as is also Fulgora, the transfigurator, whose illusions are most mystifying. The other numbers on thebill are up to the usual standard. “Lady Lil” holds court at the Grand Opera-house, where Miss Lisle Leigh makes a gem of the strange part. The acting throughout is natural and some- what smoother than on the opening night, while the stage settings and scenic effects are specially appropriate and tastefully de- signed. The horse show at the Auditorium is a great all-round success, but the little Mexi- can mule is the star of the combination. His antics are indescribable. The evolu- tions of the other members of the equine cast are graceful and intricate, displaying the most careful drilling on the part of the trainers and the existence of a quality near akin to intelligence in the horses them- selves. “WHARF RATS” IN COURT. Judge Low Holds Them to Answer Before the *nperior Court. Frank Marshall, Willie Latimore, Dan- iel McEvoy and Charles Bond, the four *‘wharf rats’ arrested for robbing John Lundquist, a ship’s carpenter, of his watch and chain Sunday morning, ap- peared in Judge Low's court yesterday morning. Lundquist, Policeman Dwyer and Louis Uphouse, another of the gang who turned State’s evidence, gave their testimony and the Judge held the four boys to answer before the Superior Court in $2000 bonds each on the charge of grand larceny. They did not seem to care very much what became of them and looked upon the proceedings as a joke. Marshall was tne only one who felt that he had gotintoa bad scrape, and his looks at Uphouse while he was giving his evidence were far from pleasant. B e SNATCHED A PURSE. Ellis Howard Arrested on Suspicion of Beiug a Pickpocket. Ellis Howard was arrested on Tuesday night by Special Officer George Delmas in front of the Grand Opera-house and is lodged in the “‘tanks” at the City Prison. Mrs. Mary Burch, who lives near the Five-mile House, had been at the theater and was boarding a Mission-street car when her purse was snatched from her hand. She quickly turned and saw three men beside her. She called for help and Delmas caught Howard. The other two men ran nmf escaped, but the police think they know who they are. The purse was picked up from, the ground where it had been dropped. ¢ s Mrs. lfurcb called at the City Prison yesterday morning and identified Howard. e — A Saloon-Keeper Arrested. J. W.
