10 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, JUNE 11, 1896. SHARKEY GETS DOWN O WORK. Says He Will Make This the Fight of His Life Against Corbett. WILL NOT RUN AWAY. Members of the Civic Federation Say They Will Try to Stop the Mill. DILLE AND TRUMAN TALK Manager Greom of the Nationals Says It Is an Exhibition Within the Pale of the Law. Tom Sharkey made a dive for the hand- ball before it got out of bounds in the Acme Athletic Club gymnasium in Oak- land while training yesterday afternoon. He Junged too hard, missed the ball and | collided with a red-headed youth who sat | on a rail in the front row of spectators. The youth went over backward with Sharkey on top and struck his red head on | an iron plate screwed on the floor. The young man saw red stars. The iron plate | raised a bump on the back of his head not | any bigger than the mouse that Sharkey says he’ll try to raise under one of Jim | Corbett’s eyes in their approaching four- | round battle. The sailor lad paused a little while dur- | ing the training and, while Tim McGrath, one of the trainers who is assistant to Needham, wiped tke perspiration from his | face and brawny shoulders and chest, talked a little abput the fight: | “No, I havzn’t outlined my plan of battle ye! he said. “It 1s too early. Iam just etting down to work and there is plenty | of time to think about that. But you can say that Corbett will know I've been before him; he’ll be aware that I am in the ring, all right enough. I’ll notrun awny—dox\‘nl you ever think that.”s This is the most that Sharkey has said | about the coming contest to date, except | to his trainers and most intimate friends. | He is a silent fellow and talks very little as a rule, even to Needham, There is a vast difference between trained talker and & trained fighter. Sha v is the lat- | ter and not one particle the former. He | smiles once in a while, and talks even less. He seems to be looking on the serious side of the panorama of the prize-ring most of the time. From the way they started in yesterday it is evident that Needham is going to give | plenty of training. Needham said: ““Tom is going to_make the fight of his life with Corbett. I intend to get him into | fine condition, and the rest remains chiefly with him then. Sharkey is improving | right along since his first fight with | Cho; ki. Anybody who saw him then aod will look at him now can see the change for the better. He has improved a great deal, and I think ne will keep on improving. He gets around better, and is_| not a bi v for orfe of bis weight.” rath, the chief rubdown artist for Sharkey, said yesterday: “Tom is such a quiet fellow that you can’t tell very well what he thinks about his chances with Corbett. He can stand a lot of | punishment though. Itisa good oppor- | iunity for him to stand up before Corbett, and he knowsit. He has everything to gain and nothing to lose. One thing I can tell you: thatis that Tom is not going to stand up as stiff as an Indian ci stand and be slugged. He’sa hitter, He thinks if he can get in one or two b body blows on Corbett that he’ll stand a fine' chance of winning out in style.” So much for the talk of the Sharkey's working-day begins early in the morning. Yesterday was the first day devoted to getting intocondition. He will take a long walk every morning. Yester- day the pedestrian excursion extended to and around Lake Merritt and to Pied-| mont and return. Needham =oes along. | When they get tired of keeping up a steady walk they start into a trot ora run to rest themselves. | When Sharkey was 10 years of age he | ran away from his home in Ireland. In | the same year he became helper to a| blacksmith. Stripped for work in the | Acme gymnasium yesterday he looked a | boss blacksmith in strength. His muscu- | lar development is so marked that Her- | cules might have been proportionately | proud of it. He has an India ink picture | of a full-rigged ship on his broad chest, | with a few blue stars showingin the fir- manent of musle around it His exercise consists of punching the bag, handball, skipping the rope, winding up a wrist machine and tossing a large, heavy, leather-covered ball which might bea foot- ball if it was much smaller and ninety- nine times lighter. % Sharkey and Needham punched ten or twelve rounds on the bag. After a short rest the sailor laa went at it again alone. | He banges it against the wooaen canopy with such 1apidity that.the force of con- | tact sounded like the explosions oif a Gat- ling gun or the bombardment of the early morning of the glorious Fourth by cannon crackers touched off in a bunch. The ball flew back and forth swifter than sight. Kach bound was met by the brawny-fists of the sailor lad and each blow increased the rapidity of the bombardment and the velocity of the flying sphere. Suddenly, with a terrific blow square in the face, the rope from which it was pendent snapped and the big ball went sailing down the hall. That ended the bag-punching ex- ercise for the day. There is quite a contrast between Need- ham and Sharkey as they play handball. The trainer is nimble and spry on his [ | | pins and moves more quickly and with | more gracefulness than S8harkey. Though it appears to take the sailor lad longer to get to the ball, somehow he gets to the swiftest bounds of the ball. Yesterday he made but few misses, the most disastrous one being when the red-headed youth. Sharkey worked just as hard at handball as he did at slug- zing the sphere. The big sailor boy skips the rope as lightly as a fairy. He appears to enjoy it as much as a schoolgirl. Somebody men- tioned something about “Ail right till broad daylight a-skipping the tra-la-loo,” and then the sailor lad laughed. He threw his face as though he sniffed salt water afar off, and the rope went whirling on. That big, heavy leather cannon-ball was thrown to him next, and he tossed it around Jike the man in the circus. He kept it up in the air apparently as long as he wished by banging ic with his fists each time it came down within striking dis- tance, Then Sharkey and Needham tossed it back and forth, standing about thirty feet apart. One time Sharkey put too much muscle behind it, and the ball flew jar out of its previous orbit over Need- ham’s head, and the crowd scattered. There was no sparring in the exercise vesterday. The reason was that one of %\'eedhlm's hands is sore. If the hand is not all right by to-day and there is no | worthy substitute around, there will be no sparring till the band has recovered. The bath and rubdown conclude the exercise. Sharkey has been put on regular dies, | | he went headlong into | He eats chops and egfs for breakfast, roast beef and vegetables for dinner at noon, in Schuetzen Park Yesterday. DANCING WAS WARM WOoRW | Some Varied Scenes Witnéssed at the Twenty-Fifth Annual Outing of the Retail Grocers’ Association; and for supper he partakes of steak. He drinks tea or milk, but no coffee or butter is allowed him. He can havea little fruit if he wants it. Sharkey has had a long career as a sailor. He is only 24 years old. He has been second mate of several sailing craft and his last position aboard ship was as bo’sun aboard the cruiser Philadelphia. Once when before the mast on the ship Aristides the ship was out of her couse, and when the storm blew over all hands found themselves almost within hailing distance of the polar bears of the south pole. They were in 64 degrees south lati- tude in the South Atlantic. During that experience the sailor lad who is going to face the world’s champion pugilist on the 24th inst. had his feet, ears and hands nipped by the southern frost before they got back into the gulf stream and a softer atmosphere. Corbett is trainiag down to harder work gradually in the gymnasium of the Olympic Athlet’c Ciub. He punches the | bag, twists the wrist machine, vs his favorite handball with great agility, and spars with ‘‘Young Corbett” (George Green) and Billy Delaney. The champion emerges from his exercise feeling mora springy each day. But he refuses to get down to very hard training. Sitne g s 2 TRUMAN AND DILLE OBJECT Say the Contest Will Be Stopped if It Is Agalnst the Law. The Civic Federation will take a hand in the coming fight between Corbett and Sharkey. It will not be in the purchase of tickets to witness the contest, but on the contrary, to invoke the strong arm of the law to stop it. These are the calculations in the minds of some of the officers as expressed by I. J. Truman, the president of that body, and George T. Gaden, the acting secretary. A call will be issued for a meeting of the members of the Civic Federation for some evening this week, at which the question will be fully discussed as to the proper course to be pursued to have the authorities step in and prevent the ex- hibition if it can be done. Iu an interview with Mr. Truman last night by a CALL representative that gentle- man expressed himself as follows: *‘Yes; the Civic Federation will meet some evenin g this week and consult upon the prope r course to take to stop thisin- decent slogging—mind I say ‘slogging,’ advisedly, because it will be nothing else. “Do you mean to tell me that people are willing to pay $2 50 to witness an exhibi- tion of what they call ‘science?” I do not think so. This exhibition is to be, pure and simple, brutal slogging for a money cansideration, and as such we will, if we can,put a stop to the so-called scientific exhibition. “Iam more than astonished at Acting Mayor Tayior,” he said, “in signing the permit. I certainly expected better from him. He has made a good, conscientious Supervisor, and now when the power was given him to show his disapproval of this exhibition he does not do it. ‘‘Even assuwing that it is to be a match of science,” Mr. Truman continued, ‘‘do you think that the youth of this City are elped by seeing such an exhibition? | Have we not enough real exhibitions in the blood-letting line every day in the year without giving our boys new points as to the best methed of blackening a nighbor’s eyes and punching noses? “The State Legislature has prohibited this very thing. Well, we will see about it before we get through,” he continued. The same sentiments are entertained by George T. Gaden and Stewart Menzies. Rev. Dr. Elbert R. Dille, pastor of the Central Methodist Church, says he does not intend to appeal to Governor Budd or ask that the State militia be called out to stop the boxers, but he does say thatit appears to nim to be an, infraction of the law and that they will stop it if it is un- lawful. He was seen last evening after the weekly prayer meeting in his church was over. He said: *‘It seems to me that the fight of Corbett and Sharkey is not only against the ordi- nance but a violation of the State law, as itis a brutal contest. My attention was first called to it to-day. I never have heard of Sharkey before, but when I see a newspaper with a picture of Corbett in it 1 always tnrow it down. We, but Ispeak individually only, for I have not seen Mr. Truman, expect to put a stop to this fight if it is a violation of law, and whether itis or whether it is not it ought to be stopped anyway.” “Many prominent citizens are seen at sparring contests,’”” said THE CALL repre- sentative. “So much the worse; 8o much the worse,” repeated Rev. Dr. Dille. “Itlow- ers the moral standara.” Manager Groom of the National Ath- letic Club, before which the contest will take place, said last evening: “This is not a finish fight and not con- trary to law. It is an exhibition. Corbett is here now for the last time, or at least for a number of years, and the people want to sée him. The contest will be entirely within the pale of the law, Itis no prize- fight. The police will see that we keep within the law. “Though the tickets for this event,"” he said, “will not be on sale till next Monday, we already bave applications for seats from bankers, attorneys, leading mer- chants and other prominent people. These | gentlemen would not support a violation | of the law. “If Dr. Dille has never attended one of | these exhibitions I would like to have him come and see what they are like. I would like to have him and & committee of the Civic Federation attend, and we will give them the best box in the house,’’ con- cluded Manager Groom. GROCERS ENJOY A GRAND OUTING Schuetzen Park a Scene of Merriment and Fes- tivity. FAT LADIES MADE A HIT. | H. H. Becker’s Score of 64 Heads the List in Target Shooting. MERSHON, THE IRREPRESSIBLE. Retail Grocers’ Association Elated Over the Large Attendance at Their Outing. It was a great day for the Retail Gro- cers’ Association yesterday. It was the occasion of their twenty-fifth annual out- | ing av Schuetzen Park, and so gleefully was the day celebrated that many of tie members averred with varying degrees of solemnity that George Washington's birthday wasn’t in it. The ferry-boats took three loads of peo- ple over in the morning and two in the afternoon. And the boats were crowded, too, with just the jolliest lot of people that ever gathered together. Talk about the cosmopolitan character of San Francisco! Theskepticshould just have cast his eagle eye over that assem- | biage at Schuetgen Park about the time of the arrival of the second boat in the after- noon. There were large men and small men, distingnished-looking men and common- appearing ones, men with beards and others minus these wind protectors, humorous men and a few crochety ones, swells, dressed after the mode laid down for the season by the London tailors, and others that didn’t care anything about their wearing apparel so long as they had their fill of fun. And then, there were the women. " The list would seem incomplete and prejndiced without a mention of the ladies. The haughty belle from Nob Hill reclined on the cool grass under the same shade trees as the maiden from ‘“Paradise Alley.” Baby buggies, decked out with gay ribbons, were present in abundance. For the day was warm, intensely warm, and shade trees were in demand, as well as those different drinks commonly sup- posed to conduce to man’s happiness when old Sol takes a notion to quit wrest- ling round with the spots on his surface and Jevotes the whole of his time to the promulgation of heat waves In the direc- tion of our poor, little earth. The fat ladies’ race was a feature of the day that might well be called a *‘picnic” itself. There were a good many entries, and at the crack of the pistol away they went, amid the howls of the sightseers, !noppiniafl.eir feverea brows while on the jump. rs. Weiners came in first, mop- ping her brow with one hand and trying to detain a wandering hairpin with the other. She was_ closely followed by Mrs. Reynolds second, and Mrs. Boitano third. The fat men’s race was just as funny. With hats off, handkerchiefs bound around their heads, and faces screwd up at at an angle of 30 degrees to form a groove to keep the perspiration out of their eves, they stood fretfully in position and impa- tiently waited for the starter to fire his re- volver. Just as he was about to do this there came a disturbance. J. R. T. Mershon, the genial drummer whom everybody seemed to know, arrived on the scene and promptly insisted tbat there was no use in talking, he was going to get into that race. Of course, being he, they waited for him to shed his hat, coat and waistcoat and get on the line. He did this with re- markable alacrity. As the pistol cracked off they went, big “Fattie’” Roesler in the lead. fie kept it, too, and distinguished himself by going over the line with a great hop, skip and jump. He afterward said be intended to keep his prize, one case of Bauterne, to cool himeelf off with when he ran again. Messrs. Glynn and Smith were second and third respectively. Mershon came in last, vainly clinging to the coattails of the man ahead of nim. His method of not getting last evoked uproarious n;);llun. In the race of boys from 9 to 12 years of age Kennedy came in first, Haups second, urphy third, Leffmann fourth, Schu- macher fifth and Carroll sixth. Their prizes varied all the way from a hammock to a pair of suspenders. In the boys' race from 12 to 15 years ‘Weston won, Parker second, Maher third and Kelly fourth. Among the prizes re- ceived were such articies as a football, pocket-kniie and harmonica, One of the prettiest scenes witnessed during the day was the race of little girls from 9 to 12 years of age. Their young, lithe limbs went skipping over the grouad like a rubber ball. Little Miss Talfor won rst prize, a fancy cake, and the Misses il, Bmith and McDonald the others. In the girls’ race only misses from 12 to 15 years old contested. They came over the line in the following order: Miss Moore, Miss Cummins, Miss Madden, Miss Sullivan and Miss Thode. Then there was the young ladies’ race. None of them wore bloomers, but the way they got over the ground was a terror to dress-reformers. Miss Coad came out first, Hanna second, Miss Herring third, Miss Hauser fourth and Miss Bearwald fifth. The young men's race was won by Rob- inson.” Cummings was second and Bur- gess third. The retail grocers’ clerks also had a con- test of their own. Burke won and the other prize-winners came over the line in the following order: Sullivan, Lonergan and Bender. The porters’ race was won by Robinson, Toomy getting in second and Sullivan third. Believing that it was not fair to let mar- riage bar ladies from racing on the grounds given by certain bachelor members of the association—that in chasing their hus- bands with culinary articles they got more practice than was allowable, thus becom- ing professionals and leaving the amateur class—they were permitted to compete. Mrs. Burns proved the fleetest, Mrs. Erick- sen came in second, and Mrs. Conroy and Mrs. Bostrom third and fourth respec- tively. Thkis ended the racing. But the great event of the day yet remained, namely the tug-of-war. A married men’s team pulled agamnst a single men’s team. The captain of the former was Walter Hewitt, of the latter, Harry Roesler. The former team consisted of the cap- tain, Lindauer (anchorman); Moran, Kennedy, Stohlman, Monaco, McVicker, .\inxwel{, Kerr and Thompson. The lat- ter of the captain, Henneberg (anchor- man); Glynn Lunm, Asher, Hons, Heuer, Gottschalk, Tuite and Calderwood. During the preparations for the event the contestants passed the time in hold- ing their heads so the perspiration would not dampen the spat they inteuded to use in bracing their feet, and in vigorously joshing one another. “‘Hey, there! what a sorry looking lot of Benedicts!"” velled one of the single men’s team. “Get on to their willowy anchorman,” was the answer. Though they strugeled hard the single men's team were speedily jerked across the line amid hearty applause ana good- natured taunts. “Which result plainly demonstrates,” declared the irrepressible Mershon, ‘“‘that marriage is a tremendous drawback.” During all the time these games were in progress the non-sporting element was in the large dance hall, lightly trinping in tinie to the music of Ritzau’s band. Danc- ing was kept up nearly till the time the | last train departed. Shortly after the dancing for the after- noon began a banquet was given to the press representatives in the dining hall, which was presided over by President John C. Nobmann. The prizes for target shooting for mem- g)ers‘ with the scores, were awarded as fol- ows: H. Tientjen, 62, first prize; William Ring, 59, second; Charles Nobmann, 58, third; Fred Myer, 57, fourth; J. H. Haarjes, 56, fifth; George Wilkins and John™ Schloen, 54 each, sixth; J. Larkey, 52, seventh; J. J. Moran, 51, eighth. A numoer of others also received prizes, but their scores were much smaller. In the target-shooting for wholesalers the following is the list of the principal prize-winners with scores: C. E. Whitney and J. A. Folger, 56 each, first prize; Larrot & Co. and Cleveland Bachdols, 48 each, second prize. The drummers shot as follows: H. H. Becker, 64, first prize, the highest score made during the day; Charles E. Torres, 55, second; J. F. Faul, 54, third; Blake, 52, fourth; L. Otzen 51, fifth. The first prize in the tarset contest by the press representatives was won by A. H. Powers, with a score of 53. The second and the third were won by James K. Tay- lor and F. L. Perkins, respectively. The two latter refuse to publish their scores purel% through modesty. N. F. Fields, the official scorer, who was for sixteen years connected with the Police Department of this City, wishes it under- stood that if the ammunition had ot given out before he got to shoot noone else would have stood even a drowning man'’s chance. The prizes in bowling were awarded to the following persons in the order named: W.Glinderman, J. Heitman, W. Schwarke, Mr. Prehner, G. Glinderman and G. Han- erkea. W. Schwarke also received the prize for the most nines, and J. Heitman the prize for the most poodles, a box of Napa soda, at which he bemoaned his sad fate in not being a Good Templar. On the trip home, as the train passed through the tunnels, several youthful malefactors made a great smacking with their lips and emitted distressful cries of ‘‘Oh, George, don’t,” and “I'll tell ma,” whereat the young ladies were found to be blushing painfully on coming into the light,’and cast highly indignant glances at the offenders. Taken all in all, the outing was a grand success, about 3000 people being present, and the Retail Grocers’ Association is highly elated in consequence. Dr, Blue Is Promoted. Dr. Rupert Blue, for several months past in charge of the Cityoffice of the United States Marine Hospital, hes been promoted to the superintendency of the institution. Surgeon H. 8. Mathewson of Connecticut has been as- signed to the Uity office. He is expected to reach this Ciiy from Washington to-morrow. AN EXPENSIVE HEALTH BOARD. Not Satisfied With Spend- ing a Third More Than Its Predecessors. DOUBLES THE bEMAND. Would Add Twenty-Eight New Names to Its Patronage and Salary List. DOES NOT CARE FOR EXPENSE, An Unexampled Exhibition of Nerve to Cap the Climax of Its Prodigality. In the generaiioot of the treasury that distinguishes the present administration in the City and County the Health De- partment has made itself conspicuous. Already it has overdrawn its appropriation for expenses, for jails and prisons and for quarantine $1116, with three weeks to run in the fiscal year. There was appropriated for the expenses of the Health Depariment proper this year $29,900. This was almost $9000 more than was appropriated for the same purpose for the fiscal year of 1895-96. And yet with this increase that amount is now overrun $653 60—all the money gone and three weeks of the year yet to run. With the same ratio of expenditure maintained for this month that has ob- tained before, and as a large part of the monthly expanditure is for salaries, it will necessarily be so this fund will be short some $3000. The appropriation for quarantine is overdrawn $427 49 and by the application of the same rule it will be §1000 over the limit at the end of the month, which is the end of the fiscal year. The jaiis and prisons, now overdrawn $36, will be de- ficient to the sum of $150. With the funds in these three appropriations increased to begin with by about $9000 over the amounts allowed in 1893-94 the expendi- tures will have still exceeded the sum al- lowed by over $4000. There is in the smallpox fand, also in charge of the Health Department, $1839 65 still remaining. This is the only fund directly chargeable to the Heaith Depart- ment that is not overdrawn. They have, however, expended $2560 35 of that fund. The appropriation was $4400, which was a considerable increase over that of 1893-94. The salary list for the Health Office for the year 1893-94 was $20,941 67. The salary list alone for the same office for 1895-96 was, or will be, $29,400. It 1s as follows, the fig- ures being per month: Health Officer, $250; Secretary Board of Healtn, $175; Assistant Secretary Board of Henlth, $100; Messenger, $75; City Physician, $150; Bacteriologist, $150; Medical Attend- ant, $100; Police Surgeon, $100; Milk In- spector, $100; Superintendent City Ceme- teries, §75; six Health Inspectors, $600; Chief Market Inspector, $100; three Assistant Mar- ket Inspectors, at $75, $225; Plumbing In- spector, $125; Assistant Plumbing Inspector, $100; Janitor, $30. Total for a month, $2450. This sum repeated for twelve months amounts to $29,400. 1n view of these figures the estimate of the requirements of the Health Office for the incoming fiscal year is more than merely interesting. All the expenses of the Health Office, in- cluding salaries, for the year 1893-94 amounted to $25,107 97. The salary lst alone according to the demands of the present hoard foots up $55,200. The expenses of the office, apart from saiaries, for the years 1893-94 was §4166 30. The demands for next year for expenses other than salaries amount to $7700, making a total of $62,900 as against $25,- 107 97 of a year ago, and the $33,000 of this year, counting the entire expenditure. This big sum is exclusive too, of the $1800 which is called for a permanent establish- ment of chemical and bacteriological laboratories. Following is the requisitlon in detail as filed: Health Officer, $250; secretary, $175; first assistant, $100; miik inspector, $200; bacte- riologist, $150; veterinary surgeon, $150; clhiemist and analyst, $150; public vaccinator, requisition of Police 8 eil for $1385, is as follows: mrEeon Wi RECEIVING HOSPITAL.

WILL YOU BE STRONG WHEN YOU ARE OLD? As you would protect your house against the wearing of the storm so that it will be pre- gerved and suitable to shelter you when you grow old, so you ought to guard your physical body against the inroads of | disease, so that it will be healthy and well preserved when you are an old man. When you are young and the forces of nature active you can often smother these light pains and weaknesses that trouble you, but in doing so you have to call up your reserve vitality. That is a nail in your coffin, for it wastes your reserve force, which should be saved till you grow old. It is this reserve force which keeps up the health in old men—when they are healthy. Every man wastes this force more or less. Sometimes he finding his weakness when he is old it comes on him while he is still a young man. His life from that time is miserable—devoid of the power of manhood, ruined nerve power, and finally lost memory and mental imbecility—he be- comes a wreck. This is a pitiable state of human waste. Thousands of young men have sown the seeds for it by excesses and other causes, but it can all be cured if good judgment is used in time. As the power lost is of the | nerves—nerve force—it can be replaced by Electricity, the life of the nerves. “I could dance with joy when I consider that I have been saved from the necessity of liv- ing the rest of my life in that miserable state,” says J. A.J. Morse, Los Gatos, Cal., after For a permanent_estabiishment of chemi- cal and bacieriological luboratories for gross and minute examination of foods, etc. e weeeee $1,800 It will be seen that this begins by in- creasing the salary of the milk inspector $100—making it $200.

Itadd a public heretofore performed by the messenger of the board. It adds a “clerk of vital statis- tics” at $75—the duties formerly performed excellently well by the secretary of the board.

It adds three assistant ‘““food and goods inspectors’ at $75 each or $225 a month. It addstwo ‘‘disinterment inspectors” at $100 each, $200 a month. It addsan assistant plumb- ing inspector at $100.
