Now, however, they have just received word that Dr. Boyer will be in Oakland next Monday night. Dauring his ten years in the pulpit Dr. Boyer has added 10,000 members to the church, and this is owing it is said as much to his great dramatic ability in the puipit as to the power of the gospel which he preaches. He began teaching school when he was 16 years of age, and three years later resigned that position to accept a pro- fessorship in an Jllinois college. After- ward he di ted his attention to the study of law, finally forsaking that pro- fession fo ago,” said Rev. Edwards Davis to-day, “Dr. Boyer wgs called the ‘Iugersoll of the eburch.’ This titie was given him because of the aptness with which he answe d many critical ques- m from larze audi by learned and experienced atheist “Only six years have passed since he was fully ordained, and it was only after his friends had used a grent ceal of per. suasion that he ndopted the evangelical method of vroclaiming the gospel. In persocal appearance Mr. Boyer is tail, with a faultless figure and a refined face capable of great expression. Without be- ing sensational in the pulpit he possesses, and itis impossible for him to conceal, & decided dramatic power. His resemblance to Edwin Booth is very noticeable, and | his sermons are _direct, “learned and con- vncing.

Collegians Win Their Second Game of the Season From the Clubmen by a Score of 19 to 3. BERKELEY, Car, April 14.—The Uni- | versity of California baseball team de- | feated the Reliance nine this aiternoon by a score of 19 to 3, thus making ten more runs than in tbeir last game together. Kaarsburg and Wheeler formed the uni- versity battery, while Smith and Lanyon pitched and caught for the Reliance nine. The clubmen ascribe their overwhelm- |ing deleat largely to the slow work of Pitcher Smith, who took the box in the place of Oliver, the Iatier having been in- capacitated by a sore arm. Kaarsburg pitched a swift, bard game and pave only one man a base on balls. The errors were even on both sides, each bayine made four.

He Declared That the Trip Was Merely Oae of Pieasure and Curiosity. lieved to Be in Connection With the Sanitary R quirements of the Tidal Canal. OARLAND Orrice 8Ax FrANCisco L‘Au.,% 908 Broadway, April 14. Governor Budd made a tour of the estu- ary to-day, and although he stated that it was simply for pleasure it is belieyed that his trip originatsd from some other mo- tive. The Governor and a party consisting of Dr. Morse of the State Board of Health, Dr. Chalmers, San Francisco Quarantine Officer, and J. T. Burke approached the Webster-street bridge in the Governor Markham shortly before 10 o’clock. The tug passed through the draws and the Governor made a close inspection of the bridges as the Governor Markham steamed slowly through. Aiter looking at the bridges the tug steamed as far as the new Adams wharf, which seemed to possess great in- terest for the party. Alter going a short distance above the whar! the tug turned and wade her way to the Webster-street shp of the city whari, where she was moored. A boat was hailed from one of ine boathouses on the Alameda shore and the party got into it. They then pro- ceeded along the Alameda snore and up the smzll creek on that side for some dis- tance. The Governor asked many ques- tions, which plainly showed he had great interest in being informed regardiug the estuary, and aiter rowing about three miles the party returned to the Webster- street bridge and boarded the tug. “The trip was only an outing,” said Governor Budd to a reporter, “‘and has no significance at all. 1 merely wanted a | lutle trip ou the bay, and I thought I could enjoy myself this lovely morning | taking a good look at the estuary.’” | Al other questions failed to produce any information, and a few moments after the Governor boarded the tug the party steamed out of the estuary and made for | San Francisco under full speed. | . On account of the personnel of the party it is beiieved that tue Governor’s trip was in some way connected with_the sanitary condition of the estuary. Dr, J. C. Mec- Lean of Alameda is also'a member of the State Board of Health, and be has just re- turned from Washingion after irying to | secure as a sanitary measure the consiruc- tion of the tidal canal at the Alameda end of the estuary, for the purpuse of having tidewater pass completely around the |island of Alameda every flood tide. No definite information, however, could be obtuined from any of the party. THEY SFRING SURPBISES Berkeley Athletes Held Their | Last Try-Out Before the Intercollegiate. Drum Snatches the Hundred. Yard Dash From Barnmes and Dorn Throws Remarkabiy BERKELEY, CAv, April 14.—The uni- versity athletes held their final try-out | field aay this afternoon, prior to the inter- collegiate meet. Several surprises were sprung, chief among which was the win- ning of the 100-yard dash by Drum from Barnes, who has thus far this season been considered to have a ‘‘cinch” on the sprints. Drum covered the distance in 10 2-5 see., though two watches caught him at 10 1- Humphreys took the 440-yara | in 53 1-5 sec., thus approaching the record by a second. The 880-vard run was an easy first for Carroll, who made it in 2 minutes 4 4.5 seconds. Dorn made the remarkable dis. tance of 135 feet 10 inches in the 16-pound hammer throw. He has had but little training of late, having only commenced to practics within the last ten days. Tom Carroll, the professional, zave an exhibi- tion throw, making 156 feet. Lioyd reached 10 feet 11 inches in the vault, which is three inches better than he has done this season. Broughton took the broad jumpat 21 feet 1 inch. The showing mede to-day augurs well for the U.

SACRAMENTO’S LIGHT, Alameda’s Experience With Municipal Ownership of Her Electric-Light Plant Wanted as a Gulde. ALAMEDA, Cav, April 14 — Mayor Hubbard of Bacramento bas written to the authorities of the city of Alameda asking for full information with regard to this city’s ownership of its electric light plant. The information will be furnished by City Clerk Lamborn, who is an entha- siastic advocate of municipal ownership of ail blic utilities. It appears that there is a sort of combination in Sacra- mento to charge the city over $11 a month apiece for ights, and the Mayor thinks ihis is too much. In Alameda the cost to the city for similar lights is about $7 and the electricity used here is generated by steam, while that at Sacramento_comes from the St power plant at Foisom,” re the fluid can be generated atfar cost than when steam ls nsed. Fraitvale After Light. ALAMEDA, CAL., April 14—The people of Fruityale want to get a supply of elec- 8 ad tricity from Alameda’s plant and have commenced necotiations with that object in view. At present they obtamn light from the electric railway piant, but they comptain that tl.e service is poor and in- termittent, and they wili try to change the source of supply to Alameda. 1 A Peacemaker in Trouble. ALAMEDA, CAL., April i4d.—J. E. Mor- rissey of East Oukiana got into a lot of trouble yesierday while acting as peace- maker between mother ana son. He heard cries of distress coming from a store on Park streef, apparently emanating from a woman, and rushied to her sid. He says he found Valentine Humpnrey siriking his mother, and thereupon a row ens ed beiween the men, which ended in both being arrested for’ disturbing the peace. When the case came up this morn- | ing Mrs. Humphrey denied point blank | that her son had struck her, and Mr. Mor- rissey vows that N0 woman in distress shall ever receive bis chivalric aid again. The Saloen Vote. ALAMEDA, CaL, April 14.—An analy- sis of the voie cast by the different pre- cincts on the saloon question on Monday shows some interesting facts. Thereisa toial registration in this city of 3664, yet over 1500 voters failed to go to the polls. The highest number of volés cast for any one office was 2107. On the suloon ques- tion there were 1903 votes cast, with a majority all told of but 83 for the saloon. There is, of course, no means of ascer- taining the sentiments of the non-voters, but the division of sentiment is so close that it is not considered probable that the Trustees will take any action in the prem- ises one way or the other.

OAKLAND, CaL, April 14.—Francis W. Reid, State secretary of the Christian Endeavor Union, received the following letter to-day, dated Boston, Mass,, April 8, 1897, which will be read with interest by many on this coast. No fear is ex- pressed as to the outcomeof the recent Supreme Court decision regarding Na- tional trans portation interests: Dear, Brother: The next convention will be held in Sau Francisco, July 7-12, notwithe standing all newspaper or other rumors to the contrary.

After taking advice upon the sub- ject with his better half it was decided that an illustrated petition would have more weight than a holographic document. Sam therefore mustered all his family, took them toa photographer, grouped them so that they would appear to the best advantage, and with his petition inclosed a cabinet photo of the joneses. All the litile people are intelligent and appear to be well fed and well cared for and tbe deacon is very proud of them. ‘When he filed his petition this morning he had a little conversation with Harry Thomas, secretary of the Board of Pubiic Works, and asked that official if he thought it would be better for him (Jones) to bring bis family in the flesh to the City Hall to urge his claim. Harry Thomas looked around and noted tne somewhat cramped quarters of the Board of Public Works and toid Mr. Jones that he thought the photograph would answer the purpose equaliy as well. A little later Mr. Jones got the ear of Mayor Thomas and with the aid of the photograph he tried to convince the Mayor that it would really be a good thing if the job of mowing the city’ lawns for $75 a month sbould fall Jonesward. Tue Mayor thoueht so, too, but being & politician he did not say so, but assured Mr. Jones that his petition would be duly considered by the board, of which Mayor Thomas is chairman. Tne deacon did some canyassing this afternoon after filing his petition and was evidently impressed with the value of his family picture. He carried it around town and with its aid secured many signa- tures to be uitimately added to his peti- tion. This matter of city gardener is one which needs to be handled very carefully at the City Hail. Last year the coveted position was sought by Msayor Pierson, one of the brethren, but he was opposed by one element of colored society and result Editor Wilson of the E.ev: sued for libel for declaring that Pierson was no govd ana did not k cactus irom a horned toad.’ Jones declares thas although his ideas of botany were not gained in the State Uni- versity, he knows enough to mow lawns, sweep sidewalks and pick out weeds, well as trim_the solitary flowers that to be found in the city’s parks. NO FORTUNE FOR HIM Patrick Cadogan Leaves for Ireland to See His Parents. OAKLAND, Cav, April 14 —Patrick J. Cadogan of Tweunty-fourth atreet, a San Francisco stock-broker, left for Dublin this morning to visit his aged parents. Some days ago some fellow-members on the Stock Exchange had some joking at Mr. Cadogan's expense. One member stated that Mr. Cadogan was going to Ireland to look after political affairs there while Michael Daviit was in California. Another member started a story that bas caused the family much amusement. H e out that Mr. Cadogan was going to blin for the purpose of obtaining :os- ion of an immense fortune left him by maiden aunt. This story has been largely circulated, and Mrs. Cadogan said to-day that it was without a particle of ioundation. ““There has not been a death in our fam- ily for many years,"'she said, Mr. Ca- dogan’s trip is merely for the purpose of ng his Tather and mother, who oth well advanced in years.

Depug Suryeyor Ruddell was the cus- toms officer in charge of the vessel, and he was called before Special Agzent Moore yesterday morning and questioned by that official. According to the statutes Mr. Ruddell is not responsible for the landing of the ras- sengers before Dr. Jordan got ready to visit the vessel. Itis a question whether passengers have not reuress when they are detained on board ship merely be- cause a quarantine officer chooses to keep them waiting. At the botiom of the deep seas the water is only a few degrees above the freezing point. R e A A N S R The fac-simile signature of is on every wrapper 4 of CASTORIA.

They Are Fitting Themselves for the Field Days Next Week—The N:w Grand Stand. At the Presidio reservation yesterday morning there was some lively mock skirmishing bstween two divisions of in- fantry. It was merely a part of the regu- lar tactical drills, but the soldiers pre- tended to attack each other with so much enthusiasm and fired with such vigor as wo make it quite exciting to the civilians who watched the mimic war. Four companies were engaged in the com- bat; two had the task of doing what soldiers call defending a defile, and the other two tried to destroy them. If it bad been real batile the attacking party would have swept the road clear of the opposing force, but both sides played their parts with skill and all the courage the occasion require: The troops are taking an especial inter- est in the exercises this week because next Monday, Tuesday and Weanesday will be field days and the wish is to make them- selves £0 periect by practice as to give a goud display of military excellence when they will have so many admiring specta- tors to wateh the mancuvers. Captain J. J. O'Conneil was the officer who had in charge the planning of the de- file fight. Quite a number of people witnessed the regular maneuvers of the cavalry yester- day morning. They were performing the “monkey drill.”’ The horses behaved well when being shot over and the riders dise played excellent horsemanship. The grand stand is rapidly being bullt at the parade ground, and there will be comfortable seats for the women next week from which to witness the athletic contests. In additlon to this work there is much being done in the way of leveling and beautifying the grounds. The show of flowers out at the barracks is well worih a visit to see, and the lawns and walkslire being put in fine order. Genemal Forsyth and his staff boarded the MeDowell yesterday and went round the bay and to Lime Point, presumabiy for coast-defense study. The sale of seats for the grand military tournament at the Presidio to take place from Monday, April 19, to April 24 in- clusive, wili commence to-day at 2p. M. at Sherman & Ciay’s. Lieutenant Ro- diez will be in charge. KOLB DIED ALONE, His Body Lay in His Room for a Week Beforo Belug Found. B. Ratto, caretaker of Montgomery biock, noticed an offensive stench yes- terday morning arising from room 89, oz- cupied by an old soldier named Jonathan F. Kolv. The door was forced open and the body of Kolb well advanced in decom- position wis found lying in the bed. The body was removed to the Morgue. Mr. Ratto iast saw the deceased on March 29, when Kolb paid his room rent. Kolb was & veteran soldier, having en- listed in the United States service at the close of the war and was retired on a pen- sion for continuous service. He had been very sick for several we-ks past and had written a letter to the adjutant-general asking for a leave of absence, 23 he wanted to visit relatives in Zurich. He left $300 in the San Francisco Savings Bank. The body must have been lying in the room for about a week. Kolb was a cabinet-maker, a native of Germany, 54 years old, and had many friends in Grand Army circles here. o A Grocer In Trouble.
