TANGLED IN A FISH NET A Quick and Gallant Rescue by the Big Ferry Steamer Ukiah. PICNIC GIRLS GO A-SAILING Customs Inspector J A. Ross Seizes Too Much Water-Front Liquid. A gusty breeze along the water front kept the usual number of strollers away from the wharves, and a strong wind on the bay kept the harbor pretty much clear of boats. One small craft. however, with a party of five ventured out on a day’s fishing, and are now blessing their lucky stars sailor man was equal to the occasion. He floundered into the boat with the fright- ened ladies and swore by Neptune that he was there to save them if the water took the crease out of his trousers. “On, you dear, darling, braye maun,” they cried, and they hugged him and twisted around in the boat till she shipped a sea that almost swamped her. The res- cuer blushed to a new brick red and trem- bled with fear and cold till his teeth chat- tered. The party was safely conveyed ashore vowing that they would never, never again go to sea. Yesterday s squad of young men be- longing to the Naval Battalion congre- gated at their boathouse on the Folsom- street wharf and made general nuisances of themselves. They visited the neighboring beershops with the regularity of old salts aftera long cruise at sea, and then turned them- selves loose. One of the number purchased some_fruit from a peddler and then the crowd of blue jackets began a rowdy play. They threw soft peaches at each other till thewr uniforms were spattered with the fruit. ‘A number of ladies standing at the boat-landing had their dresses stained and minedgby the flying missiles. It woald be a good idea for the commander of the battalion to detail an officer to take care of those young fellows when on duty and ashore, if they cannot do it them- selves. Customs Inspector John A. Ross got on a spree and ran amuck yesterday on the water front. He boarded a Market-street car and immediately proceeded to tell the ripman his opinion of that person in anguage most vile. Severalladies left the car, and when the railrcad employes tried to induce him to dothe same he fought like a wild beast. Special Officer Glocker finally dislodged him after a severe con- test. At the Harbor Police Station he violently assaulted Keeper Charles Cul- lum and had to be subdued by main strength. He was locked up, charged with using vulgar languaee, drunkenness and disturbing the peace. There will proba- bly be a vacancy in the eustoms service. A Day’s Outing.

[ Superintendent McLaren Declares Many Trees Are Lacking Nourishment. RELIC OF THE FORTY-NINE. Another Balloonist Meets With an Accident—Robinson Retires From Sutro Baths. The cutting down of the appropriation for Golden Gate Park is what is agitating the Park Commissioners at this time, and they express the opinion that it would be the cause of retarding much work which they believe they could do this year, *The amount allowed,” said Superin- tendent McLaren yesterday, “will delsy Perilous Predicament of Five Men Clinging to a Capsized Boat on the Bay Yesterday. Caught in a Fishnet and Almost Drowned. They Were Rescued by the Ukiah. [Sketched by a “Call ” artist.] One Was that’ sent the big ferry-boat Ukiah their way in the nick of time. They were Wil- liam Miller, H. Bielenberg, Fred Jensen, George Bayless and Pasquale Anebili to manage the boat. It was a merry sail till they arrived off Al- catraz Island, when a sudden squall struck their exceedingly cranky craft, whirling 1t over bottom upin the bay. Then began the figit for life between the waves and the five helpless men. Being all thrown one way when the boat capsized, they clutched that side and turned her com- pletely over again. The boat was buoyant and light and the struggles of the men simply rolled her over like an empty cracker-box. George Bayless, a printer, well known in this City, was not only incumbered with a heavy overcoat but became caught in the boat and was unable to free himself. When the boat was bottom up he was wholly under water, but the struggles of his companions would lift him into the air and he would get a few breaths before he was whirled under again. Finally he kicked himself free from the boat and found he was caught in the fish-net like ‘‘a big salmon.” He said he floundered around and though unable to get out of the snare he had intended for a large string of fish he secured a good grip on the stem of the boat where he held until rescued. When lifted from the water he was badly mixed up with the net and other fishing gear, and this kept him from going to the bottom of the bay. In the meantime the other four were struggling, each man for himself. Pas- quale had experience enough to keep away from the others, and, kicking off his shoes and most of his clothing, made good weather of it. But Jensen, Bielenberg and Miller were fast exhausting themselves in their efforts to get a safe grip on the boat. Miller was dragged under the water by his companions, and he says he swallowed most all the bay before he was rescued. But the life-savers were at hand. Cap- tain Van Pelt of the steamer Ukiah had seen the men in the water and was hurry- ing his boat with all the power of her big paddle wheels to their rescue. When the steamer reached the scene a boat was lowered in quick time and was soon among the drowning fishing party. They were so far gone thatin 8 moment more a Sunday tragedy would have been enacted there. Bayless was pulled inwo him and Miller was unconscious. Aboard of the steamer they were taken care of and were returned to the City wet and hatless, but thankful for their rescue. When the boat capsized Jensen’s watch stopped, with the hands on the dial mark- ing 2:20, and they were picked up just twenty minutes after. Another boating incident occurred yes- terday in which two fair young summer girls and the crew of their imperiled craft were rescued from the choppy seas off the stormy coast of El Campo. The ladies had grown aweary of the dance, the swings aud the merry-go-round, and having reached the high-water mark on icecream, lemonade and soda frappe, they demanded of their gellant es- cort an excursion on the blue waters of the bay, and he assented, being proud to admit of his nauticel ignorance. A boat was procured and the party started out, ::dfli'wd much in geiting off by a sweeping e, Soon they were in a mad torrent of waves and their boatman was as rattled as ever landlubber could well get to be. They set up a cry that echoed and echoed along the Marin shore. But a rescuer was near in a gallant sloop manned by Commodore Atkinson as skipper and Bert Bygrave as crew. The commodore jibed "his boat alongside of the other craft, and as the the Ukiah’s boat with his net still around ; San Rafeel, to-day. The members of the club will meetat their hall on Kearny street at8oc’lock and march to the wharf at the foot of Clay street, from which the boat will start at 9 o’clock.

Frank Kenigoani, a cook, scared the passengers on a Geary-street car yesterday afternoon, and is now locked up in the City Prison. The car was on its way to the City, and Kenigoani boarded it at Devisadero street, taking his seat on the dummy. The con- ductor asked him for his fare and he paid no attention to him. Then the conductor placed his band on his shoulder and again demanded bis fare. Kiengoani pulled a re- volver out of his pocket, and, pointing it at the conductor, said: “Don’t you touch ;na or I'll shoot you. I won't pay my are.” Policeman Clancy happened to be stand- ing at Scott street, and the car was stopped and he was notified of the cook’s actions. He placed him under arrest, and at the City Prison he was charged with threats to kill and carrying a concealed ‘weapon. He had only a nickel in his pockets when searched at the City Prison, and he said he was keeping it for a steam beer. There is a charge of assault with a deadly weapon also pending against Kenigoani. ————— PIRATES SHOT THE COOK, Found Aboard the Schooner Norma by $ George Linderman. When George Linderman, the cook of the schooner Norma, which is lying at the foot of Fourth street, went aboard at 7 o’clock last evening, after an afternoon ashore, he found the schooner in tempo- rary possession of water front pirates. They were in the cabin helping themselves to clothing and other valuables belonging to the captain and mate when Lindeman appeared. He tried to corner them until he could get police assistance, but they took a shot at Linderman, the bullet strik- ing him in one of his arms, uuvnhre flesh wo\;nd. 5 e men, three or four in nu jumped over the side of the uhoona:?!.’::i made off ina whitehall boat.

I believe that it is best that the trees which require many years to grow should be taken care of first. Flowers and grass-plats may be neg- lected for a time, as it does not take long to restore them, but if treesare allowed to die, and mnng of them in the district west of Strawberry Hill are now six feet or more high, it means from ten to twelve years to restore them. There is danger of that portion of the park becoming de- nuded and that section becoming a wil- derness again. The sand there does not nourish the roots.” A gentleman who was present during the conversation suggested that the bridge construction might be delayed for a year, until the next appropriation is made. Mr. Rosenfeld, while of the opinion that that structure ought to be commenced without delay, intimated that it might be- come necessary to delay the work, and added: ‘“There are some who do not ap- preciate the value of the park to the peo- le who come here for recreation. They go things differently in the Kast. The Merchants’ Association, composed of gen- tlemen who understand the needs of the City as well as any set of men can, su gested that liberal appropriation be made for the park, but whl'l they said did not amount to anything.’ What will be done will be discussed at the next meeting of the Commissioners and plans of operation will probably at that time be decided upon. The work of putting in the partitions in the annex to the museum has been com- pleted, and a very smali force of men are tinting the walls of the several depart- ments in the shades that will best suit the several displays to be exhibited in them. When the cases in which the exhibits are to be deposited are finished the place will be ready to be thrown open to the public. For want of room in the present building the many contributions that have recently been made to the museum have been laced in a storeroom, and they will not ga put on exhibition until the annexis completed. The Grant monument is all ready to be unveiled, but if the committee having the matter 1n charge does not unvyeil it soon the wind will do it. In several places the covering that hides the bust has been rent. The Youngest Buffalo and His Mother. | and the zephyrs from the west enlarge the tears day by day. Yesterday one of these had extended to such a size that the visit- ors had an opportunity to obtain a profile view of the face. There were many visitors to the lake around Strawberry Hill yesterday and many of the ladies without escorts went out in boats for a row. Thisexercise seems to be appreciated by them judging from the great number who work at the oars. Next Saturday morning the members of the San Francisco Fly Casting Club will goto the lake to try their luck at long dis- tance casting. Last Saturday Louis J. Ohnimus, who bas charge of the boats on the lake, killed a fox which for some time past had been playing sad havoc with the ducks that add to the attractiveness of the eastern end of the lake. The skin of the depreda- tor is being stuffed and it will be placed with theother carios in the museum. The site of the old Forty-nine Mining Camp of the Midwinter Fair has been turned into an arboretum, and, this hav- ing been loamed, there will in a few years be a fine forest there. Ncthing now re- mains of the camp to remina one of the general store, the stage office and the fan- dango-house but the log cabin in which Sam Davis published The Seli-Cocker and two small log cabins near by. In the Conservatory Foreman Holbrow takes great pridein showing to the visit- ors that most exquisite flower, El Spirito Santo (the Holy Ghost flower), which is now in full bloom. He also shows some beautiful Camellia Begonias in every shade—flowers that surpass any of the begonias heretofore shown—and he takes an unusual pride in .them from the fact that they are a California production, hav- ing been propagated after many years of experimenting by J. H. Sievers of this City. Their equal cannot be found in the finest collections in the world. There was agood attendance at the CIiff and beach, but there was no perform- ance in the baths, nothing but ordinary, everyday swimming and musical selec- tions by the band. The cause of this was the retirement of Colonel T. P. Robinson from the position of amusement manager of the baths. There was a large attendance at the Haigl.t-street grounds, the chief attrac- tions being the boy Sandow, who gave ex- hibitions of extraordinary strength, the intelligent orang-outang and the balloon ascension. Miss Lelia Adair, the elder of the Viola sisters, was to have made the | ascent, which was to be followed by a parachute drep, but when let go the bal- loon gave alurch and caused Miss Adair to lose her hold on the trapeze-bar. In endeavoring to recover it, some one of the crowd ran against the aeronaut and almost threw her to the ground. Just then the balloon gave another lurch and this brought one end of the trapeze-bar with great force against Miss Adair’s right shoulder-blade, which was once fractured during an ascension, and the blow caused her such pain that she did not have strength enough to grasp the bar, so the balloon went up without her and rose higher and went further than any balloon that ever left the grounds. Her younger sister, who was injured the Sunday previ- ous, is_still confined to her bed by reason of the injury which she received when she fell on the roof of a house. DEDICATED T0 GOD'S USE, The New Howard Presbyterian Church Open to the Public. The First Church Was on Natoma Street, but Later Removed to Mission Near Third. The new Howard Presbyterian Church on Oak street, corner of Baker, was for- mally and appropriateiy dedicated yester- day afternoon. With tong and praver the beautiful building, a gem of the architect’s genius, was consecrated to the worship of God. The floral decorations were simple, yet exquisitely and tastefully arranged. Hy- drangeas of the pink, blue and white va- riety, with a background of fern, made the altar, temporarily, at least, a place of sweet scents which seemed to blend pleas- ingly with the eloquent and inspirea words of the several speakers. The interior of the new church is a di- rect contradiction of most modern eaifices. Instead of being deep it is broad, tending to create the effect of a family gathering. At both ends there are two .galleries, in- tended ordinarily for classrooms, but which can be connected with the audito- rium should the occasion arise. Just back of the rostrum stands the big organ, around which there is sutficient room to seat a choral choir of forty. Long before the hour announcedjfor the opening of the dedicatory services the 600 seats were filled. The galleries were thrown open, and they, too, were soon crowded to overflowing. The exercises commenced with an organ prelude by | William F. Hooke, organist and musical director. This was followed by the doxol- A Relic of the ’49 Camp. ogy, “Old Hundred,”’ rendered by a special choir of twenty-six, their names being as follows: Sopranos, Mme, Yda de Seminario, Mrs. J.

Hoeg, Peterson, Charles H. Van Orden, Berkely Pearce, George H. Hooke, S. Somer Henley. Rev. Mr. Doane of Mizpah church read a lesson taken from Kings, following which came the dedicatory sermon by Dr. H.C. Minton. The speaker referred in eloquent terms to the new house of God, urging all members to work for it faith- tnfiy and earnestly asthe one way to ad- vance the cause of Christ. The pastor, Rey. F. R. Farraund, then read the usual dedication exercises, after which Dr. George B. Somers, chairman of the build- ing committee, formally transferred the keys of the building to the legally consti- tuted custodaians of the property, repre- sented in this instance by Captain Charles Nelson, chairman of the Board of Trus- tees. The exercises concluded with a short prayer by Rev. Mr. Stewart and a few re- marks by visiting Presbyterians and min- isters. The visiting clergymen were Rev. 8. H. Willey, Rev. F. A. Doane, Rev. George Stewart and Dr. H. C. Minton. David N. Hawley, one of the four organ- izers of the original church, was also in attendance. The Howard Presbyterian Church was organized in 1850, the first church beingon the corner of Natoma and New Montgom- |. Oriltl‘alll. ev, 8. H. Willey wu‘g stor from 1850 to 1862. The lumber for the building was brought from Maine, and the ground was presented by the late William D, N. How- ard. About forty years ago the church sold the Natoma-street property, moving on Mission street, near Third. Some months since the trustees received an offer for that property, and after due consulta- tion with the mem bers of the congregation it was deemed advisable to acceptit. The present property was then purchased, and the result is seen in the formal dedication of the new building as told above. The new Sunday-school was organized yesterday morning with 147 pupils. J. P. rutzman was elected superintendent and Purcell Rowe assistant. The Christian Endeavor Society will in future meetevery Sunday evening at 6:30 o’clock. BUTIONS M THE CRIE A New Fad Started in Connec- tion With the Political Campaign. Being Used for Advertising by Manu- facturers of all Kinds of Merchandise. Pleasure-seekers at the Park yesterday were kept busy trying to read the inacrip- tions on the miscellaneous assortment of buttons that decorated the lapels of thou- sands of bicyclists and pedestrians. But- tons of every description, bearing mottoes of every kind, were greatly in evidence, and the easy-going citizen who was not quite up to date marveled at ihe sud- den appearance of this very latest fin-de- siecle adornment. The “button craze'’ has already struck the town, and threatens to throw all other fads into the shade during the next few months. One firm has already sent out the advance guard in the shape of great cards of miscellaneous buttons to be given away withl 1ts cigareites. Pictures of Mc- Kinley on backgrounds of flags and shields and whole firmaments of stars are among the most common patterns. “McKinley, Sis-Boom-Ah! Hobart” is also a favorite among those who are work- ing for the man from Canton. Eastern manufacturers are turning out ‘“‘crowns of thorns” and “crosses of gold” by the thousand. Tattered urchins and messenger boys all over the City already have their jackets decorated profusely with such Democratic slogans as, *‘I’ll carry silver if it breaks m&bnck," “Silver 1s good enough for me,” “Wall street demonetized silver,” ‘‘The banks don’t want free silver, I do; I don’t gwnln,; bank,” and “The goldbug is a hum- ug. ven Non-partisans have been provided for. Non-committal button-wearers are offered such inscriptions as, “Hush, you'll wake the baby,”” ““Yes, darling,” “Don’t NEW TO-DAY.
