The preliminary contests which resulted in the selection of the foregoing teams took place December 6 and 13. Yesterday the first of place at Shell Mouna Park, and on Janu- ary 3 the second of the preparatory series will occur. Louis Barrere. inspecter of rifle prastice of the First Infantry, N. G. C., has ad- dressed a circular to his comrades, in which he says: This is not an ordinary contest, but one which should prove of great interest to our regiment, every member of which should do all in his power to encourage enthusiasm and stimulate the cfforts of the men to establish their superiority as marksmen, so that in the future they can speak with pride of the deco- rations given in this match. Colonel W. Macdonald returned to the City last Thursday. He appreciates the importance of the contest in which his regiment is about to engage. He is not overcontident of victory, but believes that his sharpshooters will capture the trophy. He knows that there are many crack shots in the Hawaiian regiment, and is not inclined to underrate tbe skill of his competitors. The new cavalry troop held a meeting on Monday evening at its rooms in the Flood building. Colonel Bush, on behalf of the commitiee on permaunent organiza- tion, reported that thq committee would submit the by-laws at the next meeting for adoption. Captain Margo reported that a gentle- man had offered the free use of several ood saddie horses until the troop would %c enabled to purchase its own, and that he understood that several other parties having horses would offer the same a sistance to tne organization. Maujor C. Jansen, brigade inspector, who bad been invited to address the members, then delivered the first lecture oi the series. His remarks were entertaining and 1nstructive, and in brief were a de- scription of the organization of cavalry in its early stages, the various mounted bodies of the several countries of Europe, their number and condition, the cond «tion of the cavalry service in the Unitea States at the breaking out of the rebellion, the instruction at Carlisle Barracks and its subsequent achievements under such cavalry leaders as Sheridan, Custer and other notea soldiers. He declared that it was a necessity to have go'd cavalry troops in the National Guard, who should be well drilled as such and mounted, with good control of their horses, and strongly advocated such or- ganizations. 2 He considered a good mounted body in- valuable 1n case of internal disturbance: asserting that a body of cavalry among mob would cause immediate dispersion without entailing the heavy loss of life at- tendant on a bayonet charge or the fire of infantry. He referred to the mounted police of European cities and stated that he had no doubt that 1f the plans of this orgzaniza- tion were succes-fully carried out that it would be the means of showing to the police authorities of this City its value and cause them to organize a drilled mounted polics force, A vote of thanks was tendered to Major the final competitions toak' THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL DAY, DECEMBER 21, 1896 Jansen, and after enrolling several new members the meeting adjourned until this evening, when the second lecture of the series will be delivered. One of the first bills to be introduced at the coming session of the Legislature will be a measure to increase the number of companies of the National Guard, and this bill will probably provide for two more mounted companiesand at least one battery of light artillery. Jt strikes mili- tary men as something rather remarkable that an organization of troops numeri- cally as strong as the National Guard of California should not possess a single sec- tion of field artillery. The troops are more concerned in the legislation providing for new uniforms, blankets and overcoats than in measures for an increase of the force. The Legisla- ture iscounted on as one friendly to the guard, and liberal appropriations are an- ticipated. MERCED, Cav., Dec. 17.—The presenta- tion of the military arama *'Twixt Love and Duty,” by Company H, Sixth In- fantry Regiment, was a greatsuccess, both financially and artistically. The general comment of the citizens of Merced ranks it much ahead of any amateur perform- ance ever given in the city. The boys of the company are much gratified at the re- sult of their labors, as it exceeded even their fondest hopes. The piay was given under the direction of H. A. Rayner, an actor of merit, who carried the leading part with ability. Robert Newell as Philip Marks, the Confederate officer, handled a aifficult role in a very creditable manner. The members of the company insist that he must enlist now. Sergeant Guthrie as Sockery Schneidelbocher seemed to enjoy playing his part as much as the audience did in laughing at his genuine German dialect and droll acting. Mrs. Captain Graham carried the part of Bess Msrks in a very clever manner. Miss Myrtle Graham as Mrs. Armitage, the mother of the hero, captivated the audience, and Miss Theresa McDonald sustained the double role of the Magda- lene Nurseand Goddess of Liberty par- ticularly well. Little Hazel Badt as the orphan enacted her part very sweetly. Corporal Griffin as General Banks por- trayed the stern soldier 1n an admirable manner, and Private Fentry was a good Colonel Williard. Corporal Adrian and Privates Rosenthal and Cassad carried themselves as true soldiers. Dunn’s or- chestra kindly volunteered to furnish the music for the boys. Second Lieutenant Daniel G. Bambauer has forwarded his resignation to the adju- tant-general and the members of the com- pany are now figuring on a successor, It | is expected that the election will be ordered for an early date. Owing to the uncertainty of the weather the attendance at the monthly target prac- tice was small last Sunday. The sky was overcast, which probably accounted for the absence of high scores. The following members scores of over thirty points: Plyler 39, Corporal George 38, Corporal Griffith 36, Smith 35, Sergeant Jones 34, Griffith Jr. 34, Sergesnt Guthrie 33, Captain Graham 31, Lieutenant Smith 31. The citizens’ medal, which is awarded to the best scor- made at each shoot, was won by Private Plyler. The class medals are given out every other month, two scores counting on the classification. They were won as follows: First class, Corporal Griffith; second class, Corporal George; third class, Captain Graham; fourth class, Private Kelley. FORMING A NEW CHURCH A Social Reiorfi Movement on the Basis of Chris- tianity. Rev. C. W. Henning of Oakland Lec. tures Before a Small Audience in This City. The social reform meeting in Washing- ton Hall on Eddy street, where the Rev. C. W. Henning of Oakland lectured last evening, was not largely attended, but as this new movement has some earnest ad- herents its leaders were not discouraged at the small beginning. Mr. Henning dis- coursed on **‘Who Is Jesus?’ but there was littie of the nature of a religious service at the meeting. A card of membership or pledge was given each memberof t' e audience at the door. This was styled the *Basis of Union” and contained the articles of be- lief of Mr. Henning’s adherents as fol- lows: We whose names are attached hereto, de- sirous of uniting all the forces that make for righteousness, and recognizing in the teach- ing of Jesus ot Nazareth a sufficient guide in the regeneration of the individual, of society and of the State, do agree upon this simple basis of union, and cordially invite all who will accept his teaching to unite with us in such studies d practical measures as this association may elect, in accordance with its by- aws, to promo‘e aud extend the kingdom of God on earth. Provided siways and particularly that no article of belief other than that above indi- cated, or that will conflict with the cceed of any evangelical church, shall be imposed upon any uniting with us. Upon this basis of union we pledge ourselves to teach end practice personal self-denial and mutual helpiulness, # the end that justice, truth and mem{l may be established” in the earth, and that the divine right of every mem- ber of society to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness may be secured by our institutions and laws. The lecturer said that all the thought of ages since Christ came upon earth has centered around the BSavior. *“To trace the development of the Jesus idea,” he added, ‘‘would be exceedingly interest- ing, but I have not time for that to-night. Suffice to say that in ail lands there has been a groping after God, and we can dis- cover three steps toward the understand- ing of the divinity—our likeness to God, nearness to God and oneness between him and man. We have discovered in man what is so near the divine, and hence the andra’ssion sometimes that man is near to 30d." Quoting the Old Testament, he said that men were called ‘‘the friends of God,” “‘the sons of God.” S0 when Jesus used this lanzuage he was misunderstood, for it had long been forgotten. ““The real me. ing of Jesus must be discovered and again proclaimed in the ears of the world,” sald the preacher. ‘He came witha three- fold purpose into the world—to reveal God to mun, to reveal God in man and to re- veal man to man himself.” Money for Boys.

Trifling Concessions Are Helping Materially to Satisfactorily Consummate Sales. Matters in the Building Line Have Been Quite Active During the Past Y:ar. Matters in the real estate line are de- cidedly better. Interestis of much more general character and real estate offices are assuming the old business aspect. In- quirers are far more numerous and their questions are propounded with greater positiveness. Results are also showing to increased advantage in the way of trans- actions. Buyers and sellers are getting nearer to each other, and when such a condition prevails there is every prospect that actual trade is pretty close at hand. There is more of a disposition shown on the vart of owners to listen to offers and trifling concessions on both sides are help- ing materially to satisfactorily consum- mate sales. The balancing of accounts by business men will, however, for a few days largely absorb attention, and not much time can be expected to be given to real estate interests until mer- chants, capitalists and tradespeople are satis- fied with tne condition of their respective ledgers. While the year now ending might have presented a greater volume of transac- tions, itis satisiactory to know that there has been neither undue influence nor marked de- pression in values. Probably no more posi- tive evidence of the strength of the real estate market could be advanced than & comparison with current prices and those ruling one and two years ago. It is reasonable to expect more or less soft- ening of vaiues when the universally devressed condition of generel business which has pre- vailed during to last twelve months is taken into consideration. But an examination of matters shows that property quotations indi- cate anything but wild fluctuations, and their prices. as & rule, keep weil up to the former standard. Some sections, it is true, may exhibit trifiing concessions on old flgures, whi e others will really show little advance. The former of these possibilities is presented in the sale of outside properties. In the extreme southern and westgrn parts of the City sellers had to slightly modify their views in order to reslize, while in the busi- ness centers of inside property buyers had to sdvance their bidding rate in order 1o secure what was needed. By these ups aud downs, however, 8 happy medium was maintained. For many years there has been no such ace tivity in San Francisco in the line of home- building as for the past twelve months. It hus been frequently remarked in the weekly | ieal estate coinmns of this paper how large has been the number of building contracts let &nd how small has been the average cost of the buildings contracted for. It is the small houses, the small stores, the two-story flats that have multiplied with the greatest rapidity, and this means that surplus wages have been invested, that the suburbs have been covered with homes and that the outlying districts have become more thickly peopled. In Richmond, in the West Mission, in the Potrero, in Ocean View there has been the greatestactivity. The costly houses have for the most part been confined to the Western Aadition as the expensive business blocks have been to the downtown districts. If in these latter portions of the City the rush of building has not been so marked as in the more remote districts, it is still safe to assume that prosperity is general, for when the masses, the emqlove!, are prosperous and con- Xel;'ae\l the employers must be finding business good. REVIEW OF THE RECORDS. There were 110 deeds recorded during the past week. The mortgages numbered sixty-three and represented loans to the amount of $218,312.

At a recent meeting a number of vroreny-ownen put- themselves on record as against the movement. Shainwald, Buckbee & Co. have contracted for the sale of 1000 acres of the Murphy- Colombet land, being a part of the Rancho ia Laguna Seca, situated & few miles soutb of San Jose, in Santa Clara County. 1hey will place this property upon the market in smail sub- divisions of ten acres and upward. Theland is the lust of the great ranchos in Santa Clara County, and wheu it is subdivided these great holdings that have been the admiration of ;hounn?mw:'ll be dotted by innumerable omes of thriity settlers. Property-owners in the Sunset District, south of the Park,are agitating the opening of Nineteenth avenue, and claim that this im- provement is the duty of the City, inasmuch as they claim to pay considerably more than their share or taxes. There are at presentno streets in the district, and for thatreason they wish something to be done in that line. By a recent decision of the courts the City becomes the owner of another valuable viece of property, being a portion of the tract for- merly known as Holladay Heights. The land in question is a half block on Washington street, running trom Gough to Octavia. This is'a portion of the tracethat has been in dis- ute for some time past under the 8. W. Hol- *ThY Sotlowt i1l be offered at e foilowing property wi et public sale to—gno'x‘-mgye hg Easton, Eidridge & Co.: A lot, 27:6x104:10, on the northwest line of Market sireet, 114:1 southwest of Franklin, running through to Page, on which it fronts, 21:9; lot 34:414x137:6 nnd premises at 607 and 609 Pine street, 137:6 west to Graat “avenue; building lot. 25X75, on the south line of Clinton Park, 155 east of Dolores street; the nine-room residence and lot, 28x137:6, at 1816 Pine street, east of Oc- tavia; dweiliug and lot, 25x103, at 216 Ash- bury street; the lot on the southiwest corner of Pacific and Jones streets, 60x52:4; two lots, 25x187:6 each, on the south line o Oak street, 187:6 west of Devisadero; & cottaze and lot, 28x136, at 164 Clara avenie, and the probate sale of the property at 538 Howard street, consisting of a lot, 25x85, and two dwellings. Property-owners favor the substitution of bitumen for basalt and cobbles where the lat- ter are now laid along the line of the proposed boulevard that will make a circuit of the northern part of the City. The proposition on ioot is to make a continuous driveway of Kearny and Montgomery street, into Mont- gomery avenue, to Bay street, thence to Van Ness avenue, to Lombard street, to the Pre- sidio, to First avenue, to the park, to Baker street, to Fulton, to Devisadero, 10 Golden Gate avenue and back to town. The offices of Shuinwald, Buckbee & Co.1n the Milis building are to be eniarged, and when compieted the firm will have one of the largest afid finest equipped real estate offices in tne country. The change is made to ac- commodate the increusing business of the firm and is an evidence of the revival of the real estate business. The offices will open upon the main and Pine-street corridors as well as on Monigomery street. In the new arrange- ment considerable space will be given to the firm’s house-renting department._The depart- ment for the sale of City 1ealty as well as that for the sale of country lands will be increased in size. The insurance and !oan branches will also come in for more extensive quarters, and better accommodations and arrangements will be made so that it occasion arises auctions may be held in the great vestibule. A'bill which will be presented to the next Legislature by Assemblymsn-elect H. I Mul- creavy of the Thirty-ninth Assembly District regulating the change of grades oa all streets and highways throughout the State is being repared by the attorneys of the Federation of mprovement Clubs. The matter of changing the grade of Upper Market street has been agitated for some two or three years, but by a recent decision of the Supreme Court the law under which the work wus to haye been done was declared to be un- constitutional. | Since the Sutro car line has been built through Richmond district the growth of the section has been marvelous, Where there was scarcely a score of people a year or two ago there are now about 1200 residents. The people living between Twelith and Thirtieth avenues say that a new school should be built somewhere in the vicinity of Twenty-fourth and Point Lobos avenues. The City owns sev- eral lots which were reserved for school pur- poses, and there will be no expense as faras a site is concerned. The Point Lobos Improvement Clud has been asked to take the matter in charge, and it will be brought to tne attention of the Board of Education immediately after the first of the ear. If the Clarendon Heights !mgrovemenlclnb. which was formea during the past week, is successiul in havine Seventeenth street cut through to Uranus, which Is to be one of the first nctions of the club, the residents of the Mission district will be sfforded a fine drive to \he park. At present there is no direct way to get to the park from the Mission, and the cut- ting through of Seventeentn street as proposed will snve & jour-mile roundabout drive. A number of the property-owners and mer- chants of Seventh street will form an improve- ment club shortly for the burpose of ad- vancing the business interests of that thor- oughfare. The street committee of the San Francisco Association of Improvement Clubs held a meeting during the week to consider the question of a sewer system for the district be- iween Thirtieth street and the county line, which is being demanded by the residents of Sunnyside, Holly Park, Ocean View, Fair- mount, Five Mile, Excelsior and other tracts, Action on the matter was deferred until Janu- ary 8, when a special session of the street com- mittee will again be called to decide which plan of having the outlet built ought to be adopted. The citizens ot the Ocear View district are lln petiticn the Supervisors for more electric ights. Residents of Excelsior Homestead and the district adjacent to tue Mission road are to be supplied with water. A gangof men have been working 4uring the week putting in & 12-inch main on Mission road. From Onondaga ave- nue, near the Six-mile House, the men have nd will connect the pipe the CoMege Hill reservoir and the Four-mile House. - SOME RECENT SALES.
