It isnot oiten Farley will put himself out to do a thiug of that sort, but in this case it was different. Jim Flood, away off in his beautiful country home, wanted two private boxes for the fight, and he must have them. He wired his friend Johnny to that effect and Johnny secured them at last. It was not wichout a battle, however, for the swell clubs of the City have been dis- puting with each ot to possess tnem- selves of all the choice locations. While the battle is not to take place until the 24th, and the referee is not to be selected until a couple of days before that, the subject is being canvassed. terday Danny Lynch expressed a to accept Hiram Cook, the old- feree of the defunct California Ath- letic Club. He is the man who decided the Corbeit-Jackson mill a draw some years ago and he is not in good edor with the Corbett faction. Cook, however, bas gained the confidence of the public by his exceptionally sguare rulings during the many vears he has officiated as a referee, and the suggestion that he might be se- lected this time nhas been grasped with eagerness by the sporting men. They be- lieve that with him they will at least have | & ‘‘run for their money.” Jim Corbett is still maintaining his repu- tation as a handball player. It is a pleas- ant pastime and affords the very kind of exercise the champion most needs to lim- ber him up. Fred Butts, one of the club’s best play- ers, tried his skill yesterday against Jim’s with disastrous resuits. Corbett played no *dirty ball,” as he called it, but gave his opponent every advantage. “‘Butts wasn’t in it,” the big fellow said after the contest. “I beat him by a score of 21 to 2. Then I took George Green, and I won with a score of 21 to 17. I overplayed myself in the next game, when I went against them left-handed. They did me up brown, with a score of 21 to my 4. But left-hand vlays are the hardest thing on earth to go against. You might as well tie one hand behind your back and try to box with a fellow. It's even worse than that, for you forget every little while ihat only the left hand goes and you. hit the ball with your right, Then the play’s off, becaunse it’s a foul.” The final game with Corbett against Butts and Green resuited in a victory for the pair by a score of 21 to 14. Continuing his course of training, Cor- bett punched the bag for an hour, and then varied the monotony by punching George Green, his pugilistic trainer.

Van Buskirk, the club’s heavy-weight, was allowed & chance to measure mittens with the champion in a friendly bout. Tom Sharkey, over in Oakland, spends most of his mornings and afternoons in the Acme Club, where Danny Needham looks after him. The latter's hand is | coraparatively well again, and they use the gloves lightly. It seems no effort at | all for Danny to get out of harm’s way, which fact strengthens Corbett’s chances of avoiding the rushes of the sailor lad. Late yesterday afternoon Sharkey met with a rather serious mishap. He was sparring with Danny Needbam, and they were about to close the day’s exercise. Sharkey made one of his wild rushes and ran up against Needham’s left elbow. The blow was severe enough to put the sailor asleep had it brought up on the voint of his chin, but it landed on his fore- head justabove the eye. Sharkey fell to the floor and for a moment it looked as if he had been completely knocked out. He bled most profuseiy and was unable to con- tinue the exercise. He did not appear last night at the club. It is not believed that this mishap wiil in- terfere with the coming contest, although it certainly will affect the betting. Sharkey’s regular routine of training will be carried out to-morrow. The hours between 6 and 8 in the morn- ing are ma‘nly devoted to wind-giving stripping Needham and the few friends who care to accompany him cn these trips. The betting of the contest began in ear- nest last night in Harry Corbett’s pool- | rooms. During the earlier part of the day | one of the Baldwin Hotel patrons, & man | well known as Williams, took up the Sharkey end of it. He proposed to betany part of $1000 at odds of 3to 4that the sailor | would not be stopped in four rounds. Two of Corbeit’s friends pounced on $75 { each of this kind of betting, *Big” Jack, | the billiardist, handling the Williams money. Subsequently Williams and Jack decided that all further bets should be | made at the same odds, but that in the | | event of the police interfering the decision | | must be given the sailor. Explaining this Jack says thatin the event of Corbett seeing it is impossible for him to siop Sharkey be will have his | friends step in and get the police to inter- fere. The Corbett contingent scout this idea and are willing to wager even money the police will not interrupt the meeting, and should such an event occur they are will- g to call the bets a draw. The general run of bets made during the | afternoon were about three against two in favor of Sharkey remaining the four | rounds. Last evening J. J. Groom, secretary of | the Nutional Club, sent Governor Budd an | invitation un behali of the club to attend | the contest. The idea expressed is that | the chief executive of the State should see | that science and not brutality rules in pugilistic affairs as the club intends con- ducting them. Back of this is the desire of the club to get tbe Governor's indorse- ment to an act which itis proposed to have | passéd at the next Legislature legalizing pugilistic contests. The betting last night at Harry Cor- bett’s poolrooms on the Corbett-Sharkey | | ight was 2 to 1 that Corbett would not stop the sailor lad. Some $2200 in all | went in the box at those odds. | | The odds offered on the Dixon and night were $10 on Dixon to$3 on Flaherty. There was considerable money wagered | and the affair resulted in a draw. - CORBETT AND SLAVIN. The Champlon Will Fight Any Man | Who Has Got Coin to Bet. | It was reported yesterday that Corbett’s manager, W. A. Brady, had written from | London, England, that the National Club | of London would not give any kind of a consideration for a contest between Cor- bett and Fitzsimmons and, in fact, the club had no particular desire to match Corbett against any man. ‘When Corbett was asked what informa- tion of importance was contained in | Brady’s letter he laughingly replied that he had to receive the letter first before he could vouchsafe a reply. { “The last letter I received from Brady,” answered Corbett, “contained very little news concerning the National Ciub of London, England; in fact, I was made aware some months ago that the National Club had a grievance against me because I | would not apologize for some imaginary | wrong statements I had been accused of making. If Iam rightin stating any par- ticular thing I know to be a fact, why | should I apologize to the National Club or | any other club for that matter? “Possibly the clubowes me an apology and it is angry because I don't get near enough so that it could excuse itself verbally without the necessity of being | heard by the sporting people at large. “There are other clubs in London | equally as prominent as the National and | I can say that ii Fitzsimmons or Jackson | will show the least desire to enter the ring with me a purse will be offered which in | value will be equal, if not greater, to that which the National Club would give fora match between champions. “Yes, 1 see that Slavin will meet Maher on Thursday evening in New York. Iam told that if Paddy wins he will leave for the West immediately to haye a ‘go’ with me. Well, everybody wants a ‘g0’ with | Jim Corbett, and everybody with sense | who is not a pugilist knows that that measns cheap advertising for the chal- | lenger. | | “1 have stated repeatedly that I am | looking for good, hard coin, and you can | say that I am in the business to fight any | man living who will put up enough money on the side to make the object one of con- sideration. ** *First come, first served’ is my motto. “I shall certainly give Fitzsimmons and Jackson the preference, but if the New Zealander and the Australian fail to come to time with the long green then Slavin and the others will be given an audience— that is, if they can show the color of | gold.” | FRACTURED HIS SKULL.| Probable Fatal Accident to Captain Farrell of the Schooner ‘W. B. Phillips. An accident that will probably result | fatally happened to Captain Farrell of the I schooner W. B. Phillips yesterday after- noon. The schooner is in the Merchants’ dry- dock, foot of Main street, and the captain was assisting the mate to do some work. He overbalanced nimself, and fell a dis- tance of twenty feet, striking on his face. | | He was driven to the Receiving Hospital in the patrol wagon. He was unconscious, and Drs. Weii and Rinne found that his skull was badly fractured, and that he | could not recover.

NOBLE GRAND’S REPORT. Replete With Interesting In- formation and Pleasing Tributes. GOOD CASH BALANCE SHOWN. At Night Officers and Delegatés Ac- cepted an Invitation to Visit the Tivoli. The Grand Grove of the United Ancient Order of Druids is holding its thirty-second annual session in Druids’ Hall, on Sutter street, near Stockton. At this time there are in the jurisdiction the by-laws handed to them for considera- tion during the recess. A press committee, consisting of J. J. Mollison, L. G. Weisshaar and Henry A. Chase, was appointed to prepare re- vorts of each day’s session for the dailies. Philip Kohrbacher, deputy supreme arch, introduced a resolution to establish a relief board for the City groves. The resolution was sent to the proper commit- tee and will come up for discussion to- morrow, with a strong probability that it will be adopted, | It was decided that at half-past 1 o’clock to-day a group photograph be taken of the Grand Order. Last night, by invitation, the Grand Grove attended the Tivoli and enjoyed the play of “‘Lorraine.” The visiting delegates are being enter- tained during their sojourn by the San Francisco groves. To-night there will be a literary entertainment, banguet and dance 1n Odd Fellows’ Hall. To-morrow morning will occur the elec- tion of grand officers ior the ensuning year, {and in the afternoon they will be in- stalled. In accordance Wwith precedent, James A. Devoto will be elected noble grand arch, and the candidates for other offices are as follows: For deputy grand arch—L. G. Weisshaar and H. J. Goller. For grand secretary—J. J. Molli- son, John M. Graves, Modes L. Samson of No. 24; J. de las Casas and J. F. Martinoni. For grand treasurer—L. Chassagne and E. H Goetze. For supreme representatives—E. L. Wagner, F. Cavagnaro, George W. Lovie, Louis C. Schord, J. C. Bernstein, J. H. L. Gerckens, TheoG. Cockrill and J. J. Donnelly. THEIR NINTH PICNIC. Veteran Firemen Will Celebrate Bunker Hill Day at Shell Mound.

Chase of No. 17, trustees, For three days the grand body will be in session, and in that time it is expected that much work will be done, for the dele- | gates have an eye to business. At the morning session there were pres- ent ninety representatives, fifteen grand officers and eight past noble grand arches. The reports of Noble Grand Arch O. H. Hoag, Grand Secretary J. J. Mollison and Grand Treasurer L. Chassagne were read and referred to the committee on distri- butlon, which was appointed as follows: E. L. Wagner, past noble grand arch, L. Malpiede of No.17 and Frank Lewis of No. 82. In his report the mnoble grand arch | stated that at the beginning of his term he had found a weak treasury and a large indebtedness. *‘The initiate list,” he said, “shows an increase, but the loss by sus- pension has been necessarily Jarge, owing to the financial panic which has swept the jurisdiction. “As a rule peace and harmony exist toroughout the jurisdiction. A few rul- ings and decisions have been asked upon No ap- peals have been taken to the Grand Grove or suits commenced in the civil courts for insubordination or otherwise. The peaceful submission to the constitu- tion and by-laws has made the term a reign of unity, peace and concord.”” A tribute was paid to the memory of ex- Grand Secretary J. H. Knarston, who was connected with the order for many years. “We have lost one of our most zealous, devoted and efficient members,’”’ he de- clared, “‘and the noble grand arch a val- uable assistant.”’ The report also developed that, since the report of the grand secretary had been made fifty members have been initiated in Washington, Frederick, Seiz, Dante, Ottavio, Guerneville and Galileo groves. The report further made known that one new grove was instituted January 16, 1896, Mendocino Grove No. 105, at Fort Bragg, which works in the Italian language. Tne number of dispensations granted was given at 36, appointments 4, number expelled 3, and consolidations 2. The noble grand arch also made a | pleasing reference to the Druids’ Journal, which, he stated, under the faithtul man- agement of Messrs. Chase, Dunand and | Mollison, has been a very valuable as- sistant. The grand secretary’s report showed that two groves surrendered their char- ters; that the net loss in membership has been 177; that there have been 401 initia- tions, 42 cards devorited, 28 reinstate- ments, making a total of 471; that the losses by withdrawal have been 22, by sus- pension 483, by death 39, by expulsion 17 and by suspension of charter 87, making a total of 648. The amount of cash on hand June 1, 1896, was given at $1201 12. The report further stated thatin most of the colonies the order was in a prosper- ous condition, especially in the north island of New Zealand, where a grand lodge has been instituted, with the office located at Wanganui. The report of the grand treasurer cone firmed the grand secretary’s financial statements and covered the ground some- what further. At the afternoon session the committee on credentials introduced and seated ten new delegates not present at the morning session. The committee on distribution submit- ted a report recommending the various subjects mentioned 1n the reports of the grand officers to the regular committees. Then the committee on the laws of sub- | ordinates submitted its report approving prizes. There are various games on the | programme, the least of which will be well worth competing for. The popularity of the old boys, together | with the perfectness of details for this out- | ing, makes doubly certain that nothing will be left undone to give the greatest sat- isfaction to those wuo will visit Shell Mound to-day. AR ROBBERY OR WHAT? Attempt to Assault Katrina Volquarldz, Servant-Girl In a McAllister- Street House. Katrina Volquarldz, servant-girl with H. Shemanski, 922 McAllister street, was | alone in the house yesterday afternoon about 1 o’clock when a tall, dark-com- plexioned young man rang the front door- bell. She looked out of the front windew and thought she recognized him as a plumber’s assistant who worked at Mrs, Nathan’s house, 512 Devisadero street, when she was a servant there. As she had been instructed by her em- ployer not to open the front door to any- body, she beckoned the young man to go to the basement door. She went thereand opened the door a little, when he forced it wide open and saying, ‘“I've a good mind to kill you,” struck her in the face, knocking her down, and she fainted. He rushed upstairs to the parlor, ook a lady’s clouk and rushed downstairs arain. She had just recovered from bher famnting spell as he reached her. He seized her and at- tempted to assault her. Shescreamed and he struck her again in the face, kicked her ;pd ran away, leaving the cloak behind im. The girl ran after him, screaming for help. and saw a young man whom she met by chance at Seventh and Mission streets Sunday night and who accompanied her | home.” She implored him to help her, but by this time her assailant had disappeared. She went to a drugstore near by, where her blackened eye and swollen cheek were dressed. The police were notified and Detective | Harry Revnolds was detailed on the case. He found the plumber’s assistant and the other young man in the store, but the girl said neither was her assailant. Reynolds said last night that he believed the assail- ant was a friend of the young man who saw the girl home Sunday night, from the fact that he was waiting outside, and that robbery was not the object. e OUTING OF BUILDERS. Their Exchange Will Be Closed To-Day While They Are Away. The Builders’ Exchange on New Mont- gomery streev closed its doors yesterday afternoon at 5 o'clock, and will not again open them until to-morrow morning. The cause of this temporary suspense is that the 500 members with their families and friends may meet in Sunset Park in the Santa Cruz Mountains and there enjoy themselves. This being the first picnic given by the association, it was deemed patriotic that Bunker Hili day be selected for the occa- sion, which has been done. The Builders’ Exchange comprises all grades of men engaged in the building trad also more who supply building material. Jts membership numbers more than 500 men. The boat with the excursionists leaves Market-street ferry at 8:45 this morning. gttt re Gty THE WINGERTER ESTATE. Will of the Capi- talist. Charles J: Wingerter, the capitalist, who died a few days aco, left an estate of over $200,000, all of which he bequeathed in trust to his wife, Caroline Wingerter. After paying all the expenses of its management, two-thirds of the income of the property is to be used for the support and maintenance of Mrs. Wingerter and the balance in equal shares to the three children—Edward Wingerter, Mrs. Me- linda C. Medeau and Mrs. Minerva A. Marston. At Mrs. Wingerter's death the entire property is to be divided into three equal shares. Oue share goes to Mrs, edeau, one to Edward P. V’lngerter and one is to be held in trust for Charles W. Marston, son of Mrs. Marston, until he is 21 years of age. The share will then be conveyed to Mrs. Marston in fee simple.

Some of the Numerous Clerks' Salaries May Be Elimi- nated. GROEZINGER'S BIG REQUISITION The Appropriation Is Already Heavily Overdrawn and the Outlook Is Gloomy. Presiding Justice of the Peace Groezin- ger's signature to a requisition for a large quantity of stationery and office supplies brought the wrath of Auditor Broderiek down on that department of the City gov- ernment yesterday and revealed the fact that he is contemplating making a heavy cat in the estimate for the next fiscal year, as sent in by Clerk Williams. The order called for 1000 sheets of noteheads, with envelopes, 5000 summons blanks, 1000 tran- seripts, 1000 blotters, 6 quarts of mucilage and 1000 updertakings for attachments. “Here it only wants fifteen days to the close of the fiscal year,” exploded Mr. Broderick, “‘and Justice Groezinger sends to the Sheriff for enough ‘stuff’ to last the clerk and all the courts two months. ‘It wouldn’t be right even if the appro- priation for stationéry and supplies was in good shape, which it is not. It is already some $3000 overdrawn with nothing but the overburdened general fund to fall back on, and still these people ask the Sheriff—who is compelled to comply—to send them a lot of things they do not really need. I don’t see what Justice Groezinger was thinking of when he signed the requisition. *It would appear to me that the Justices’ Courts shoula be very careful about spending any more of the public money | than they do at present. They already | have four clerks there for whom there is no great necessity, and the work of the office, if conducted on the same principles as that of a downtown business house, could be very easily done without them. *I should not be very greatly surprised | if some of these clerks’ salaries were eiim- inated from the estimate of Mr. Williams before it gets through my hands and those of the Board of Supervisors. “Some people lay great stress on the powers that the law gives them but fail to think of the restrictions placea on them by the same law. While the presiding Justice may by an order of court compel the Sheriff to honor his demands in spite of the state of the appropriation he should not forget that the law requires him to be at his court prepared to periorm the functions of his office from 8 A. m. to 5 P. M. each day. ‘‘How many of the Justices do you think do that? Ionly know of one that comes anywhere near keeping within the law?” HORACE MANN SCHOOL. Exercises to Be Held Next Friday Night Declared Not to Represent the Class. Many of the graduating class and teachers of the Horace'Mann Grammar School resent the attitude taken by cer- tain of the graduates in regard to the com- mencement exercises, and more especially the statements which they have caused to appear in the papers. The proposed en- tertainment to be given on Friaay next is far from representing the unanimous will of the class. The trouble, so the teachers declare, has been caused principally by several of the young ladies of the class, who went to work secretly to have the exercises with- out consulting the teachers. The latter would have been perfectly willing to par- ticipate 1n some sort of an entertainment to be held at the end of the term, although the recently passed rule of the Board of Education would prohibit elaborate exer- cises. Since a portion of the class has acted as it has done and defied the teachers no exercises whatever will be held at the school. *The girls who are at the bottom of the trouble,” said one of the vice-principalsof the school yesterday, ‘‘are mostly those who stand low in the class, and some who Very few of tne honoraries or high pupils are having any- thing to do with it. In justice to the class I should like to correct the impression that the proposed entertainment is in ac- cord with the general wishes of the class.” e ADVOCATES OF SOCIALISM. Active Preparations for State, National and International Gatherings. As the time approaches for the socialists to hold their National convention the members of the local branches are becom- ing manifestly active in preparing for a representation. This convention will be held on July 4, in New York City, and will be attended by delegates from nearly every State in the Union. After the National convention is over the international congress will be held in London. be held in July, and many delegates to the National will attend the international event. The local socialists are already preparing for these two conventions, beside the Cali- fornia State convention, which will be held in this city in July, soon after the National convention. The State executive committee of the Socialist Labor party met in the Turk-street Temple on Monday evening and G. B. Benham, Emil Liess, Leo Gasser, Theodore Lynch, Gustave Postler, Edel Hechet, H. A, Sahlender and E. T. Kingsley, State organizer, were pres- ent. After discussing the reports from the several branches, Mrs. Charlotte Perkins Stetson was indorsed as the delegate to represent the local branches at the Na- tional Convention. Mrs. Stetson will also represent the California sections at the In- ternational Congress in London. Many distinguished Socialist editors and advo- cates will be present at the London Con- gress. Gustave Postler and Theodore Lynch were appointed a committee to se- cure a permanent headquarters for the State Executive Committee, to transact the business of that body during the coming State and National campaigns.
