THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SA' URDAY, MAY 23, 1896. 11 WALTER NEWHALL 10 WED SOON. Engagement to Mrs. Ains- worth of Los Angeles Announced. WILL MARRY IN WINTER The Wilson Luncheon Compli- mentary to Mrs. White- law Reid. BALDWIN - HOBART NUPTIALS. Preparations for the Brilliant Event " to Take Place in July in This City. Society wiil be pleasantly surprised to hear that the engagement of Walter S. Newhall of this City and Mrs. Ainsworth | of Los Angeles has been announced. ) The announcement was made privately, | only some friends of both families having been let into the secret, which, it appears, was too good to keep. Mrs. Ainsworth of Los Angeles was in- terviewed last evening by a CALL corres- pondent regarding the interesting engage- ment. She was surprised to learn that it had leaked out, but willingly confirmed the report of the forthcoming alliance. ““Yes,” she said, “I am under no pledge of secrecy, and if Tue Carr desires to know I see no reason for making a mys- tery of the matter. Several friends know of it already, and I suppose it would be | public property in a few days at any rate, | Of course we aon’t care for any notoriety in the matter, but I have no objection to | THE CaLL stating the facts of the case. | “When will the bappy event come off? | Oh, I don't know exacily. It will take place, though, during the coming winter. That is the presen: intention.” After the honeymoon the happy couple will return to San Francisco, where they propose taking up their residence perma- nently. Mr. Newhall is well and popularly known in commercial as well as in exclu- sive society circles in this Ci He is the voungest son of Mrs. H. M. Newhall, and on account of his wealth and social stand- ing has been for many years considered one of the eligible bachelors. Recently Mr. Newhall spent much of his time at the immense tract of land that bears the family name, Newhall, near Los Angeles. To the management of the ranch there he bas devoted much of his energy and | ability, unselfishly depriving himself of many of the pleasures of city life—a verit- able privation—for Mr. Newhall is one of the most genial of good fellows and has | hosts of friends. He is at present in | Southern California. Arrangements for the nuptials of Miss | | Ella Hobart and Charles Baldwin are being rapidly pushed forward and it is now stated that this event will be cele- ated July 3 at the Hobart mansion on Van Ness avenue. None of the details of the wedding have | as vet been made p c other than that it | is to be a very magaificent one. | One of the ‘most elaborate luncheons of | the year was the one given Thursday | afternoon by Mrs. Mountford Wilson at | her home, corner of Pine and Stockton | streets. The entertainment was in honor f Mrs. Whitelaw Reid of New York. The | table decorations cousisted entirély of | white and pink peonies that glistened | amid the wealth of silver and cut glass, | for which Mrs. Wilson is noted. Seated | at table were: Mrs. Whitelaw Keid, Mrs. | Lioyd Tevis, Mrs, Foute, Mrs. Chauncey | Winslow, . Schwerin, Mrs. James Robinson, Mrs William Newhall, Miss Jennie Hooper, Miss Laura McKinstry, Mrs. Peter Donahue, Mrs. Eleanor Martin, s. Darling, Mrs Joseph Crockett, Mra. William Howard, Mrs. Russeill Wilson, Mrs. Scott Wilson, Mrs. Mountford Wil- son. On Thursday evening Wintield Jones gueadeligmml dinner at his home on {yde street compiimentary to Mr. and Mrs. Elliott McAllister. His guests wer 2 she, Miss Maynard. Miss Newlands, Miss Forbes, Lieutenant Winn, Mr. Board- man and Mr. and Mrs. McAllister. Mrs. Dickenson gives a large tea this afternoon from 4 to 6 av her elegant home at Sausalito. Miss Florence Lunborgh gave a pleasant little entertainment in lier studio on Mont- gomery street last evening to eight of her young lady friends of the art school. The members of Company H, First In- fantry Regiment, N. 8 entertained toeir many friends at a high jinks at the company’s rooms in the armory at Page and Gough streets last Baturday evening. The rooms were elaborately decorated by the entertainine committee for the occa- sion. The commiltee was comprised of Sergeant Davis, W. J. Ryan and George Warren, who arranged an elaborate pro- gramme and & dainty luncheon. High Private W.J. Ryan scted as master of ceremonies, and prior to rendering the programme introduced the good-natured and popular Captain F. W. Warren, who made a short but brilliant address to the members and their friends, which met with a hearty applause of the large num- ber present. Sergeant Davis with the assistance of George Warren dispensed the beverages and luncheon to the entire satisfaction of The most praiseworthy of the long 1 agreeable programme was the repro- duction of the address made by Abraham Lineoln by a member of the company, Mr. George Rowe. The selections of the old- time company favorite, Corporal Peter Jordan, were highly satisfactory. Mrs. Ainsworth has been president of the Assistance League, a charitable or- ization of society ladies, which has good work in conjunction with the <ociated Charities. She is an attractive of the petite brunette type, and is gracious in conversation and address. e e TRANSFERS TO STAY. No Probability of Through Lines to Obviate Thelr Use. In the course of an interview with General Manager Vining of the Market- ‘street Railway Compeny on Thursday relative to the transfer situation, he stated that “a transfer is always ob;ecgion:ble. and is used only as the best substitate for & through line of cars.”” This apparently contained an idea for the solution of the obnoxious transfer situation, and yesterdsy Mr. Vining was asked whether it was possible for his co: pany to arrange for through lines of cars and so eliminate transfers from streetcar transportation altogetier. To this he replied that it was impossible to put into operation through lines so as to cover the routes over which passengers are now carried by means of transfers. The reason for this, he added, was that the lines were operated by four kinds of power, viz.: electric, cable, steam and horse, and were built on three different viz.: 3 feet 6 inches, 4 feet 81§ nd 5 feet. When asked what the company proposed todo in case the Bupervisors passed the law prohibiting the giving out of transiers = on the street, he replied that any law that was fair and just would be complied with, but stated that he was unprepared to ex- press an opinion on the law contemplated by the Supal:v(lo". The Presidio and Ferries railway is changing its extension to the Presidio into an electric line, and will soon supplant the horsecar line from Montgomery sireet to the ferry with electricity. ————— GLEE CLUB CONCERT. Stanfora University Students Perform in the New Auditorium. The Stanford Glee and Mandolin Clubs gave a concert at the New Auditorium last night which was vociferously appland- ed by an audience which might have been larger, though it coula scarcely have been more appreciative. The entertainment provided by the united clubs was a thoroughly enjoyable one. It is three years since the Glee Club was first organized, and the boys showed the results of their practice during that time by singing crisply, expressively and with a” good volume of sound. i’heir shading ‘was pood and every word they utiered was cistinctly audible. The num- bers had some of them been heard before, but college songs will bear repetition with- out wearying the listeners; indeed the audience ‘showed this by giving an encore to everything the Glee Club sang. In re- sponse to a demand for a repetition of * Estudientina” * Mah Angeline” was given, and *‘Ccurtship,” **Phyllis,” “Mrs. Winsiow’s Soothing Syrup,” the medley of college songs and “The Parson’s Chicken Brigade” were all encored. The members of the Glee Club consist of Shirley Baker, Charles G. Decker, Charles B. Pinkham, Guy Cochran, W. A. Suther- land, G. W. Bush, Philip F. Abbott, A. G. Kaufman, Edward C. Bewall, W. C. Mec- Neil, W. T. Young, C. Van H. King, F. A, Schneider, Tarn McGrew, W. J. Schlacks. Shirley Baker, ieader. The Stanford Mandolin Club bas only been organized a year, but it did excellent | work last night; the shading and phrasing | were particularly good and the precision | left little to_be desired. In addition to accompanying the singers in several num- bers, the Mandolin Club played the “Har- | wood Gavotte,” ““El Vaquero,” the “‘Stan- ford University March,” by A. G. Kaui- man, and & Zulu dance. The march received a doubie encore, and the audience showed a desire to hear evervthing over again. The mandolin club is composed of W. Bittle Wells, George | B. Wilson, A. G. Kaufman, H. H. Welch, | Edward C. Sewall, William L. McGuire, | E. 1. Bartholomew, L. E. McChesney, Thomas K. Code, B. D. Weigle, H. B. Sladen, Charles L Dillon. A. G. Kaufman, leader. Charles I. Dillon sang a chevalier coster scng, *“My Old Dutch,’” expressively, and as an encore recited an Irish sketch. THE FOREST COMPANIONS Ninth Annual Session of the Ladies’ Branch, F. 0.

ARRIVED IN FORTY-NINE Took Part in the Stirring Vigi- lance Committee Days of 1856. SUCCESSFUL IN COMMERCE. Aided in Founding a Bank and Church. Close of a Self.Reliant Career. H. G. Eggers, a highly esteemed Oali- fornia pioneer, died in this City yesterday, succumbing to a stroke of paralysis after an illness of only eighteen days. He passed away in his residence on the corner of Ellis aud Laguna streets, being surrounded at the last by his family, He leaves a widow, three daughters and a son. The funeral will take place to-morrow afternoon from the Masonic Temple. George Henry Eggers was born in the village of Lagershausen, Hanover, April 14, 1820, so that he was 76 years old at the time of his death. He arrived in New York in 1848 and proceeded to St. Louis, where he engazed in business. In 1849 he was attracted to Oalifornia by the news of the discovery of gold, suffering en route from an attack of cholera at New Orleans. He reached San Francisco in the brig Capiopa in August, 1849, After a short experience at the gold- fields on the American River mining for the precious metal Mr. Eggers started a general merchandise store, which proved a success. In 185 having disposed of his interest to his - partner, Mr. Eggers returned to Ban Francisco, es- tablished a grocery business at the corner of Bush and Battery streets and subsequently founded a wholesale grocery business in the building known as Cali. fornia block. After a continuance of busi- nessin this locality for several yearsin company with Christian H. Voight, the firm purchased the lot and erected the building known as 210 California street, the present location of Eggers & Co., an importing and commision house. Herman C. Eggers, a son, took the place of Mr. Voight as partner in 1880. The deceased was a life member of the German General Benevolent Society, of Hermann Lodge No. 127, F. and A. M., and of the Society of California Pioneers. He was one of the directors of the German Savings and Loan Society since its organi- zation and was director in several 1irriga- tion and mining enterprises. He was one of the promoters of St. Mark’s Church (Lutheran). In 1856 he was a member of the famous vigilance committee. Politic- ally he was an old-line Democrat, althougn not a partisan. Mr. Eggers was married on July 27, 1854, to Miss Sophia Ehrenpfort. —_— SHANTIES ON CITY LAND, Ap- Mission - Street Residents peal to the Grand Jury. Special Lawyers Were Once for Ousting Claimant Callahan, Paid The Grand Jury will not make a final report this month. Indications are that adjournment sine die will not take place before the middle of June. % At the session yesterday some consider- ation was given to a subject introduced by property-owners who reside near the in- tersection of Mission and West Mission streets. It seems thata man named Cal- lahan claims some gore lots in that local- ity and bas quite a collection of shanties on the land. The claim is made by other resigents that the land so occupied by Cal- lahan’s shanties really belongs to the City. From all that can be ascertained the Grand Jury yesterday did not get much light on the cloudy subject of title. There is a sort of dim record that the old law firm of Flournoy & Mhoon once enjoyed special privileges in this community and some years ago received a fee to look after the City's title to this Mission property. That is a tradition at the Mission, hence the Graud Jury asa preliminary step to the investigation sought to summon Messrs. Flournoy and Mhoon. As a matter of fact the senior member of this firm has long since been ‘“‘gathered to his fathers,” but the enterprising jury sent tor John Flournoy, who was formerly attorney for the directors of the People’s Home Bank. As the latter is in no wise related to the Virginia family of the Flour- noys, and was never a law partner of Mr. Mhoon, he could not enlighten the jury on the subject. ‘Then Major Mhoon, who happened to be in Judge Banderson’s court yesterday aiternoon, was called to the jury-room, but jurors say that his recollection” of the proceeding was dim and shadowy. There is a vague impression that the law firm of Flournoy & Mhoon did receive a fee of $1000 to look after the City interests in this case, and Major Mhoon promised 1o look up the facts in the proceeding and present tgem to the jury. Incidentally this may lead some of the jurors to request John A. Russell, clerk of the Board of E_Ilp'l‘;;lm‘;;. to ‘fur::‘i-tr:h. statement showin, W many . fi'::: of public mofio have been l:.?ndg for special counsel fees during the pasttwenty years, the A:trogau sum of money appro- riated and the lawyers to whom it was Eisburnd. The Ashworth accusation, which was re- referred to the present Grand Jury some six weeks ago, has been quietly resting in committee. An explanation is given that H. E. Highton has promised to do some- thing, but the something promised has not en done. beTlm members of the Board of Health were not before the Grand Jury yesterday. There seems to be 3 sns‘renulon of activity in the line of investigation. A member of the Grand Jury said yesterday that the urpose to impiove the administration of ospital affairs had not been ullngi.hed. TE; Grand Jury committee on Assessor is said to be satisfied with Mr. Siebe's as- surance that the assessment roll will be in- creased and that franchises, securities, etc., will be properly listed. No particular ac- tivity has been manifested by the commit- tee during the past month. OVERDOSE OF LAUDANUM Captain Smith Takes Too Much of the Drug and Succumbs to Its Effects. A. W. Smith, a retired sea captain, died at his home, 817} Golden Gate avenue, from the effects of an overdose of lauda- num, taken accidentally, yesterday morning. Captain Smith was 53 years old, and well known in sea-faring circles. Latterly he has been without & ship, and in conse- quence was somewhat despondent. In addition to this he was forced to undergo a severe surgical operation, which added materially to his otherwise distarbed mind. On Wednesday he complained of feelin, porticalarly bad, and Dr. Hall was alled n, leaving a prescnguon which for the time being seemed beneficial. At night, however, he grew worse, and early yester- day morning the pain became 80 intense that the captain swallowed the contents of a good-sized vial of laudanum. An hour later he was discovered by his daughter in a g condition, the final end coming thirty minutes later. The death certificate was signed by Dr, Hall, but Coroner Hawkins refused to accept it. An autopsy and inquest will be held Monday. The Noe e, The trial of the guit brought by the Noe heirs against a large number of property owners in the Mission will begin on June 10. Love & Love, attorneys far the San Miguel Defense Association, yesterday asked for & trial at that tlme and their motion was yumed, but it 18 notexpected that the trial will be concluded be- fore court vacation, as the case will lastseveral NEARLY LANDED THE COIN The 100 to 1 Shot Mount Roy Beaten Out by George Miller in a Drive.

He was oneof seven starters in the fifth event of the day, a five and a hali furlong dash decided under selling conditious. Among the starters were William Pinker- ton, who ruled a 4 to 5 favorite, and the Texas-bred gelding George Mailler, a heavily played 11 to 10 second choice. Second to get away when the barrier was raised, Snider sent the despised outsider out in frontat a terrific clip, with Nell Flaherty in hot pursuit.

Fifteen to one was laid against Mount Roy finishing in the place, and not a few players who searched through the early issues of the ‘*‘dope’ book nibbled at the bait. The Texas horse's viclm—i roved a costly one for his owner, W, L. gtanfield, for, entered to be sold for $1000, an out- sider boosted his price to $1500, at which figure his owner retained him with the usual $5 bid. In view of theconsistent performances of the honesi-going gelding ever since he has been racing on the local tracks, the run-up looked uncalled for, and was not counte- nanced by the majority of horsemen and race-goers. The track was 1auddy, of the holding, sticky sort, and played havoc with mostof the favorites, but two of the six sent to the post getting back to the tape in front of their fields. One of the biggest durps of the afternocon was the defeat of the top- heavy first choice Major Cook by the 30 to 1 outsider Charles A, who won cleverly in fast time. Irma was made a 2 to 1 choice for the first race at six furlongs, and finished third after leading into the stretch. In a drive the 4)¢ to 1 chance Verdette beat Jerome S out a head. Seven started in the seven-furlong run decided over the inside course. Morven was a hot 3 to 5 favorite in the betting, and shaking Decision off by the time the stretch was reached won handily at the wire a neck before the 4 to 1 second choice May Day. Miss Ruth was a very baa third. By Holly’s gelding Major Cook was a cinchy favorite in the third event at six furlongs, the short price of 3 to 5 being eagerly grabbed up by the bettors. He whs outrun from the very outset by Charles A, who gradually forged to the front and passed the wire an easy winner by two lengths in the fast time of 1:161{. San Marco, well backed for the place, was a good third. be promising two-year-old Sweet William evinced a liking of the most pro- nounced tvpe for muddy going. It was no seczol, though. for he was backed down in the betting on the five-iurlong spin for the kindergarten division from 9 to 5 to 7 to 5. Getting away third, he took the lead at leisure and won easily a length in ad- vance of Horatio in 1:033, an excellent performance. A heavy plunge was made on New Moon to gather in the last race of the day—a cheap selling affair over six furlongs—her odds being gradually rubbed from 6 to 1 to 13 two 5. nfortunate in getting away from the post poorly, the Montana filly made up & deal of ,round, but had to be content with toird place, behind Favory and Howard. Favory, who captured the race in a drive, was at one time 15 to 1 in the betting. TRACK AND PADDOCK ITEMS.
