8 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBEB.'IS, 1896. CHAMPION JACK AND CLEVER JiM The Famous Lightweights Ready to Enter the Ring. St. George’s Club Is Making Great Preparations for the Contest. Carroll Is in Grand Condition and McAuliffe Is Sanguine of Success. Now that the much-talked-of battle be- tween Choynski and Maher isa thing of the past, the next great sporting event of importance is the Carroll and McAuliffe ten-round contest, which will be held on Friday evening next at Woodward’s Pa- vilion under the auspices of the St George’s Club. There are many sporting men in this City who witnessed the great battle which took place in a clubroom on New Mont- gomery street beiween Jack and Jimmy on the evening of March 21, 1890, and which was won by Jack in the forty- seventh round and at a time when it was dollars to doughnuts that Carroll would win. Scientifically it was the greatest battle Jack McAuliffe. that was ever fought in this City, and Me- Auliffe, who was in poor condition when he eniered the ring, showed wonderful generalship throughcut the contest. Sev- eral times during the battle Carroll had his opponent going, but something in- variably bappened—irequently the timely sound of the gong—that saved McAuliffe from a knockout. Jack Dempsey was one of McAuliffe’s seconds, and to his admir- able coaching the lightweight champion can attribute his success. Carrcll was in good condition and he entered the ring confident of whipping his clever opponent. Doubtless he would have succeeded were it not for the poor generalship he displayed 1n the latter part of the fight. When he found McAuliffe was fast goine on his last kicks,Jimmy rushed in to finish his game. Jack met him with his elbow, the point of which caught Carroll in the eye. The Jimmy Carroll. blow dazea Jimmy, and McAuliffe, seeing that he had a chance of turning the tide of battle, concentrated all his force into one grand effort and as quick as a flash he sent his powerful right across Carroll's jaw and downr went James on his back. Amid the greatest excitement imagin- able Carroll was counted out, and every one allowed that McAuliffe was not only a great ceneral, but a really fortunate guow in having pulled victory out of the re. Carroll has never recovered from that one defeat, as he would have given a fin- ger of his good right hand to have whipped McAuliffe. Ever since that'time he has sought a return match with tha champion, but the opportunity did not offer until the St. George’s Club was in the market asa bidder for fistic talent. After naving written several letters to McAuliffe without receivin: a reply, the club corresponded with a prominent Kast- ern match-maker, who finally got McAu- liffe’s consent to fight Carroll a ten-round ‘battle in this City. All patrons of the ring are conversant with the details of the matoh. A referee will be selected oa the day of the fight, who must give a decision inaccordance with the articles of agree- ment. As the pugilists will enter the ring at catch weights, it is not expected that they have trained with a view of undergoing a long strain. Carroll will certainly appear in shape to fight for a man’s life, and it goes without saying that he will put up a great battle. McAuliffe, on the other hand, has not trained so faithfully as his opponent, but he is nevertheless in fine trim to go a hot race of ten rounds’ duration. He con- tends that for a ten-round contest a pugil- ist, instead of reducing flesh until he has the appearance of a racehorse, should cul- tivate strength.and speed. In conversation with some friends these are the words McAuliffe used last Sun- day: “This training business is all right enough when it is properly understood. I train just for the kind of game I expect to meet. I have trained now in expecia- tion of a hot argument of ten rounds or less. My wind is good and I feel strong and able to go the distance. If Carroll whips me I will have no excuse to offer. Iam here to win and I expect to carry a bunch of the long green back to New York with me with best wishes for Carroll and his friends.” The Englishman ‘'says nothing but saws wood.”” Sufficient to say that he is as confident of whipping McAuliffe on this occasion as he is of entering the ring Friday evening. There can be no such thing as disputing the fact that the sport- ing fraternity will witnessa grand exhibi- tion of science and generalship. The preliminary bout between Hawkins and Finnick, ‘‘the Arkansas Kid,”” will also prove to be a very interesting affalr. The men are clever, and unless good judges are greatly mistaken in their opin- ions the stranger Finvick will give Haw- kinsa hard argument. The pugilists are booked for ten rounds, but it is doubtful if the race will reach the limit. Barney Farley received a telegram from Arthur T. Lumley, manager of Jack Mad- den, the crack Easiern bantam, yesterday, stating that little Jimmy Anthony’s chal- lenge was accepted A deposit of $2: was immediately made, and the news telegraphed to Lum- ley. The latter also mentioned the fact that Jack Downey would hke a bout with Dal Hawkms. Hawkins is willing to gratify Downey’s desire. If everything be settied satisfactorily the contest between Anthony and Hawkins will take place in this City within a month. Farley has been trying to match Anthony tor some time, but from the way a con- test with him has been avoided was al- most as despairing as when his big pro- tege, the “Mission Giant,”” was deleated by Choynski. Billy Daley, who is doing business for the Golden West Club, received a dispatch from Colonel Hopkins of Chicago last night to the effect that Jimmy Ryan had just left there for San Francisco. He is to battle with Tommy Tracey, and the con- test has nmow been definitely fixed for Thanksgiving night at Union Hall, on Howard street. Both men are repre- sented to be in fine condition. Arrangements have been made for two rattling preliminaries. One will probably be between King and Dixon, who put up so fierce a contest a few weeks ago before the San Francisco Club. THE POOL GAMES, They Will End Saturdav if Hopeless Losers Will Withdraw. The Olympic Club ball pool tournament will come to a close next Saturday night if those players who have absoluteiy no chance to make ashowing will drop out and leave the others. The tournament has been on now for three weeks and of the twenty-eicht entries, F. W. Graham, who has been out of town, is the only one who has not put in an appearance. The sum total of games which snould be played providing each man went azainst eaci of the others is 352 exclusive of the tie games. So faz but 178 games have been played, but four score zames more will probably be all that will be played. Hardee, Cunningham, Harrison, Thorn- ton, Brickell, Hodgkins, Slocam, Moore, Bachman and Fauller, who have each won more games than they have lost will soon come to the tie rames. This is the stage of the tournament that will be watched with the greatest interest. ¢ The full score to date is as follows: | Games | NaMES. | Pluyed| E 5 § H BRI ANGOGRC R DNGRONOINE DS CCPEO LN BRCUCHREAHONLCEABS P T T N N T LT SAUNDERS DID NOT PAY. A Lessee of the Schooner Moonlight Ordered Under Arrest by Justice of the Peace Cook. Justice of the Peac: Cook issued an order of arrest yesterday for P. 1. Saun- ders at the instance of D. Bunker & Co., the Custom-house brokers, who allege that Saunders is about to leave the State for the purpose of defrauding his credi- tors. Saunders, with C. B. Greene and F. E. Fowler, chartered the schooner Moon- lightfrom the plaintiffsin July last for a trip to Altata and Mazatlan, Mex., with a cargo ot powder and merchandise. Later they were to go to the North Pacific in search of a guano island and incidentally to ao some hunting. The lessees of the vessel agreed. to pay $150 per month for the use of the schooner and bring her back tree of ircumbrance. Bunker & Co. siate in the complaint that the schooner was returned on Octo- ber 13 last, and that she was then incum- bered to the extent of $324. Suit was begun ara:nst the three men for that amount, and Saunders announced that he would not only not pay the in- cumbrance, but was preparing to lea the State. Saunders’ bond was fixed at $500. JUMPED OFF A CAR. Serious Accident to William Robinson of the Butchers’ Gazette. William Robinson, 2425 Gough street, editor of the Bulchers’ Gazette. narrowly escaped being crushed to death under the wheels of a Sutter-street car last night. He was riding on the dummy, and when the car reached Poik street, between Washington and Clay, he jumped off without waiting for the car tosiop. He stumbled and fell and his left arm went under the wheeis. He was picked up in an unconscious condition and taken to the Receiving Hospital, where Dr. Weil found that his left oxilla and left elbow were fractured, his left hand was dislo- cated, the left index finger was dislocated and fractured in two places, and there was a lacerated wound on his left temple. The left index finger will have to be ampu- tated, He was suffering severely from the shock to his system ana it will be some time before he fully recovers. . Brs. Holbrook’s Will, The will of Mrs. Susan Maria Holbrook has been filed for probate. The first paragraph provides that in the event that her husband survives her the entire estate is to go to him. As Mr. Holbrook is still living the other pro- visions of tie will for the distribution of the property ure of no effect, The estate is valued at about $20,000. LEONORA JACKSON. TRIUMPH OF A CALIFORNIA GIRL Miss Leonora Jackson Wins the Mendelssohn Gold Medal. Contested Against the World in the Berlin Conservatory of Music. Happy Over H'r Ccnquest She Wrote “1 Have Held Up the Stars and Stripes.” ~Once again the genius of a California girl has surpassed the world. Miss Leonora Jackson, daughter of Charles P. Jackson, a pioneer banker end merchant of the unostentatious little city of Mud Springs, or El Dorado, as it is sometimes known, El Dorado County, is the modest possessor of this distinction. She has won the Mendeissohn gold medal for her wonderful talent as a violinist in the Berlin Conservatory of Music, Berlin, Germany, and those who contested with her for the honor of the decoration marvel at her ability. Mr. Jackson, father of the young lady. settied in Mud Springs in 1852. He was accompanied by his wife, a musician of rare talent, when he came to this coast. He immediately established a profitable business and remained in California sev- eral years. § ‘When his daughter was born he moved to Chicago, and Mrs. Jackson soon estab- lished a reputation as an able musical in- structor. The daughter, Leonora, almost pefore she had outgrown that period of life known as babyhood gave evidence that she had inherited her mother's talent. She wasencouraged in her love of harmony, and her childish hands soon learned to produce melodies on her violin that gave evidence of unrivaled genius. Four yearsa.o her parents decided to send ber to the Beriin Conservatory, and their expectations of fame for their daugh- ter have been rewarded. The little girl, then only 14 years of age, soon became her instructor's favor- ite. Dr. Joachim, who is conceded to be the most successful teacher of music now before the public, took charze of the voung pupil and she made rapid progress. She appeared frequently in concerts, but not until she completed her course did she meake her formal debut. That eventful occasion took place about a month ago at the contest for the Men- delssohn medal. Musicians from the farthest ends of the world, from the great Enropean cities and from various portions of America participated in the contest, but at the end Leonora Jackson was pro- nounced the winner. Her friends in Germany immediately wrote to interested parties in this City and stated that Dr. Joachim was so en- tranced at his pupil’s success that he rushed to the girl's side and with tears in his eyes fondiy embraced her. The Berlin newspapers pronounced her ‘‘the girl wonder of Europe,”” and musicians acquiesced. *I have held up the stars and stripes,” wrot: *‘the girl wonder of Europe” to her cousin, Mrs. Kate 8. Hart, manager of the Ramona, ‘and I am satis- fied.” Mrs. Hart is extremely proud of her cousin’s accomplishments, and adds that *‘she carried the flag to the top of the staff and clinched it there.” INSPEOTORS UNDER FIRE. The Bosrd of Health Will Investigate Davis and Dockery To-Day. The Board of Health will hold a special session this morning to investigate the charges made by Zimmerman & Ruhland, the dairymen, against Chief Food In- spector Dockery and Chief Market In- spector Ben Davis. The milkmen declare positively that they were promised immunity from loss of their cows should the Board of Health decide to test their herd with tuberculin. They claim to have been asked $600 to pay the insnectors for their trouble and that after they had seta trap for the officials the plan fell through because one of the Board of Health officials became suspicious. It is said that M. M. Estee will conduct the prosecution and that some new and in- teresting evidence has been discovered. it % e e MORE DIPHTHERIA CASES. Two Were Reported at the Health Office From the Mission Yesterday. Two more cases of diphtheria were re- -| ported at the Health Office yesterday, making eleven since the first of the month and filty during the last forty-five days. As usual, the two cases came from the Mission. One came from 10 Beaver street and the other from 8 Camp street. ——————— " TO CURE A COLD I+ ONE DYA. Takelaxative Bromo Quinine Tablets.

A Judgment Must Be Secured on It From the Supreme Court. Counsel for Charies Fair Reserves the Right to Contest Within a Year. With the famous “pencil” document out of the way the Fair will lawyers can now devote themselves to the intricacies of the *'pen” or “trust” will, with the single- mindedness that that document demands. To be entirely satisfactory to the heirs and their lawyers that ‘‘trust clause’’ which pervades it must be entirely elim- inated. One great step toward that greatly desired consummation has been taken. On March 15 Judge Slack decided that the trust clauss, so far as the real property was concerned, is invalid. No judgment on that decision was given, however. That fact prevented an appeal being taken to the Supreme Court. So well satisfied were the heirs with this decision, however, that they immediately forsook the pencil will which they had so strongly espoused and fell into line favor- ing the pen will. Next Tuesday before Judge Siack the argument will be made upon the question of the validity of the trust clause with regard to personal prop- erty. Ii the court should decide the trust clause invalid as to &enonsl property, and render judgment that effect, an one of the heirs may take an appeal. If judgment is rendered the other way, then the trustees may take an appeal. It is necessary that the Supreme Court be | reached with this point and a decision secured. Tf Judge Slack renders judg- ment in the matter of the persona: prop- erty as he has already done with regard to the real property, and ’the Supreme Court shall affirm his judgment, this will leave the heirs nothing to desire. It will only remain then for them to divide up the immense property after the expiration of the period of one year as provided by law. . If the Supreme Court, however, should decide against them—that is to say, should decide that the trust clause is valid—then the heirs would no doubt con- test the will, and it is not impossible that the pencil wiil might again find favor in their eyes. George Knight, as counsel for Charles Fair, when the pen will went to probate on Monday distinctly reserved his rights to cortest the will later if he saw fit. He claims that right belongs to him for one year, notwithstanding that the will of the 21st has been admitted to probate. This opinion is, however, opposed by many other lawyers, who claim that Knight and the Fair children have had their day in court; that their opportunity to contest the will, they having had full notice, is past. The argument next Tuesday will be made by Garret McEnerney for the trus- tees and by George Knight of Knight & Heggerty for Chnfu Fair. ext Friday morning Mr. Delmas will make an argument upon the demurrer to Charles Fair's cross-complaint in the suit in ejectment for the Mission and Pine- street property brought by Mrs. Craven. —_— QUICKSILVER OR FRUIT. Hearing of the Guadalupe Land Case Before the Registrar and Re- ceiver Yesterday. The hearing of the Guadalupe 1and case was resumed yesterday before the Regis- trar and Receiver of the United States Land Office. The principals in the con- tention are the farmers residing on a 900- acre tract about four miles from Los Gatos, and the Guadalupe Quicksilver Mining Company, which claims the tract as mineral lands. The property has been in dispute for several years, the settlers going ahead toward the completion of their filings and the mining people pro- testing against the issuance of the deeds by the land office under the homesfead act. The agricultural claumants have been permitted by the Government to improve their holdings, planting orchards and vineyards, until it is alleged the so-called n!c‘ Iver lands blossom as the rose. t month they appeared before the Regustrar to finish proving up their en- tries, anc were met by the mining com- pany with a protest. Testimony was heard on both sides for several daysand the case went over till November 17. claimants, n- Scheller, Matt and Paul McKenzie, Charles B. Arne 3 D Cole, O. Dunker, C. P. Owen, John Doyle and Captain Callundan, the last of this City, were in attendance with their attor- neys, Wilham Stuart and V. A. Scheller. The Guadalupe Mining Company was rep- | resented by E B. Thver and Attorneys M. D. Hyde and W. P. Veuve. The agriculturists yesterday put on a number of witnesses to prove that.the soil was fertile farm ana guit land and not rocky ground capable of growing nothing except flasks of quicksilver, as the mine claimants hold. H. A. Brainard, editor of the Tree and Vine, a horticulturaf journal published at Los Gatos, testified that he owned prop- erty adjoining the tract in dispute and it he best soil for fruit in the world. ‘What will grow best on your place?”’ was asked the witness. - “You might better ask what will not grow there,” He answered. *I have lemon trees that grow four inches a week and my two-year-old fruit trees are bearing big crops.” 3 In the former hearing ‘D. B. Hicks, a farmer of the tract, swore that he failed to raise anything there and that the land was worthless for grain or fruit. Editor Brainard gave as expert testimony yester- day that the trouble lay in Farmer Hicks and not in the soil, and more indusiry on his part would have made him a more accurate agricultural exper! for his friends, the mining people. The case goes on this morning at 9:30 and will probably consume the rest of the week, as many witnesses are to be heard on both sides. ART'S WELCOME.

Capitalist Oliver Baker has been enact- ing with remarkable success the role of fdiry godfather to Miss Christine Krone, the attractive cashier of the Popular res- taurant on Geary street. For the past year Miss Krone has been handling checks and dealing out change over the counter of her father’s restau- rant, where Oliver Baker used to come three times a day to satisfy his cravings of the inner man. The modest mien and courteous atten- tion of theé young girl attracted the atten- tion of Baker, and soon the pair became warm friends. It was not long before the prettv cashier reported to her aged ad- mirer her engagement to wed Howard Caldwell, an employe of the American Casket Company. Then it was that the millionaire began to Miss Christine Krone. show what was the substantial reward of the one who had won his esteem and regard A house and lot situated at 9 Langdon street was his firsi gift to the fair fiancee.

Miss Chincie Sposito and Miss Elaine Simi are to be her bridesmaids and F. W. Krone Jr. is to be the best man. A reception will follow the ceremony at Eintracht Hall. It is needless to state that Oliver Baker Esq. will be among the first to offer congratulations and kiss the young bride. CAPTAIN THOMAS DEAD. Passing of a Pioneer ut His Home in Sausalito. Captain George Thomas, who for some years past has filled the position of Deputy Auditor, died suddenly yesterday of apo- plexy at his home in Sausalito. Captain Thomas came to California from Ohio" early in 1850 and for ‘many years was identified with the mining in- dustry, and later engaged in the ware- house business in this City. He was at one time in the wholesale liguor business and until late years was the possessor of an ampie fortune. He was a member ot the Society of Cali- fornia Pioneers and of other iraternal or- ganizations. ——————— A Veteran Insane.

They Cut His Hat to Pieces and Battered Him Into Sub- mission. The Victim Fought His Assailants Until His Strength Gave Out, 7 Then He Quit. Tlario Flores, a young men employed in Philip Simon's barber-shop, 3 Stockton street, had an experience with footpads early Sunday morning that is likely to be retained in his memory for yeazs to come. The young man was on his way to _the shop about 5:30 o’clock in the morning and when on Geary, near Stockton, two men held him up. After battering him up, cutting his hat in several places in a des- perate attempt to stab him, the thieves relieved him of some small change and made their escape. . “I was walking slowly along the street, said Flores, ‘when I was stopped by two men, who asked me for some money. had none to spare, and was about to con- tinue on my way when they jumped on me and atiempted to take the money from my pocket. I did not want to lose my money, so I fought back, but it did me no good.” The men struck me in the face and | on the head and finally one of them drew a knife. He slashed at me and I dodged, the knife cutting away part of my hat brim. The man who wielded the knife cut my hat in several places, but I miracu- lously escaped serious injury. At last they forced me to the wall and took my money and ran down the street. “I had a good look at the men, and in case I should ever meet them on the street I will follow them and inform an officer as to their identity and mode of operation.” Civil Service Extended. Assistant Special Agent Jackson yesterdsy received a personal leiter from Secretary John T.

A Conductor Collapses With More Than Usual Grace. {HE HAS RESUMED WORK. |Stood Up to His Duty, but It Proved Too Much—Early Folly Again. The life of a conductor on a streetcar may be a ‘‘picnic,”” as His Wearyship terms it, but the work is more exacting tban most people have any notion of. The strain has sent more than one man to folly. It will send others. This anecdote in illustration will suit. It is relatea by a lady of unquestioned in- tegrity and is doubtless true, even in the minutest detail. She boarded a down- town car at about 9:30 early in September and noticed that the conductor was very nervous. When he took her fare he could scarcelv hold the change in his hand, ana eventually she became sure that the man had “‘been on a drunk.” It was a cruel misapprehension, but only natural. The poor fellow was evidently suffering acute pain in his back, loins and kidneys, for he continually rubbed these varts him- self, and he was bathed in a cold perspira- tion. The business of collecting fares had to be gone on with, nevertheless, but by the time the ferries were nearly reached the vitality had almost left the frame. “He is a sick man,” murmured a fat ‘woman in a brown dress and a green hat; but as that green hat was not on straight (or at least she thought it wasn’t), the knight of the nickel punch received no more thought from her. The car stopped; the conductor flopped into a corner of the car, and all but the lady who knows the ‘“‘true inwardness”’ of the tale left for the various boats. She went to him and offered him a sip of brandy—yes, actually brandy. She was in- terested in medicine and knew his straits. he suggested his being relieved by an- other conductor. That was done, but when he came to take off his bell-punch the poor fellow dropved it, so weak and nervous was he. They took him up to the Hudson Med- ical Institute, and when he was carried up the stairs of the great white building at the junction of Stockton, Market and Ellis streets his ‘‘conducting’’ seemed to be about over. A chat of five minutes with one of the senior;hxaifllnnn and a sniff of ammonia revived him sufficiently to enable him to explain that for many weeks he had suf- fered from insomnia; ke had horrible dreams; his breath was surely offensive (that needed no explanation), and he cole e i ‘Well,” said the physician in char; e, *we will take care of you.”” And thenghe made an exhaustive examination. Even professional inquirers were barred from this, but when it was over he said: e ‘E’ndynn’ is what he wants principally. He's run down; weak; lacks vital force.” And then he added, “Gst well? Of course he will. His system is deranged, not destroyed.” I saw that self-same conductor with the bloom of heaith on hix countenance yes- terday and 1 saw the bell-punch in a steady, firm hand, and he took my fare, He looks splendidly, and he said he felt so. ‘What's his name ornumber? I know, but the world must not, because the cause of all the trouble was early folly neglected. Ii “Hudyan” can make such cures as this, what can’t 1t do? That’s what I would like to ask!
