THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, APRIL 24, 1897. THE FAVORITES MOVED UP A PEG Mapaged to Take Four of the Events at In- gleside. The Plungers on Strathrol Are Beaten Out by Amelia Fonso. The Querrly Named Dousterswivel Wins—Ru:y Szlezar Carried Edu- cited Moncy—Tors:na Bid Up Favorites did & little better at Ingleside yesterday, taking four of the six events on the card. The attendance was quite | up to the average and thie betting good. The race that caused dismay, suffering and sorrow in one camp was the second. | Strathrol, running in Sam Hildreth's | ame out for the first time in many 1s and was tq have been the medium | ‘killing.” It was such & “good | '’ that many speculators in the East | had it passed to them over the wire. | Dunne’s cast-off opened at twos and was sledge-hammered down to 6 to 5 and even money. And then he could not win, even with the valuable assistance contributed by | several other starters in the race. He | did not care to exert himself the first part | despite Suields’ desperate urging and was | led past the wire by Amelia Fonso, a 5 to | 1 chance, ridden by Clawson, who quite | evidently bad not been Landed a ticket to slip in his boot. ihe Inverness filly Marvelons was | heavily played in the opering four-and- | a-half furlong scramble for two-year-olds, but away third was never able to better her position. Marty Bergen on the 6 to 1 choice Socialist was away first, and after making all the running was only beaten out the last few yards by the oddly named Dousterswivel a 10 to 1 shot piloted by Jimmy Bozeman. On Thursday, in & mile race, Refugee openea favorite and went back in the betting. If he possessed any speed on that occasion Thompson could not or would not extract it from h Yester- day the sprinter opened a 6 10 5 choice for the third event at seven turiongs, reced- ing to 23¢ 1o 1. Then a big chunk of coin | went in, forcing his odds down to 3 to2. He got away fir=t and galloved in the win- ner with rid us ease, four lengths or | 30 in front of McFariane, a 12 to 1 out- | sider. La Mascota and one or two others ran as though n on the ‘‘shove.” The secon! two-year-old event went to the even-money favorite, Rey Salazar. He was the only horse in the race backed to any extent and after lying second to Miss Remsen until well on toward the wire, won easily by a length. Miss Remsen | owned Flushington two lengths for the ce. Bookmaker George Rose’s fleet filly Torsina was a 1 to 2 chance for the fifth event at six furlongs, and after running second to Potentate to the stretch, pulled away and won under wraps. In a hard drive, Midas got the show from Redding- ton by a head. The crack Vinctor again struck a soft spot. He waea 6to5 choice for the last event, over one mile and a sixteenth, and in a mild e downed Imp. Trance a | neck in 1:493. Grady, ridden by Cole, was an indifferent third. e, NOTES. According to reports Estaca has been coing great guns and is sweetly smiled on by the stable employes. The track, which has been harrowed up, is just to his iking, and he will be hard to beat to-dey.

Torsina runs in the colors of George Rose, and the bookmakers wisely protested payment of the run-up money on the ground that Potentate is not owned by Mr. Shie'ds. Mr. Joseph, it is said, also owns Joe Terry, played throughont the country on Thursday for a “‘kiliing,” and vne or two of that horse’s periormances mi. ht caus Mr. Joseph to look wise if asked to ex- plain.

THE BIRD CAME HOME, Hazard, e—Don Clarencio, Los Cer- and a Half He Escaped His Prison Bars. Homing pigeon 1093, with a fllmy alum- inum band on one of hisankles, set aflicht in Bacramento on January 5 last lost since then, yes- terday arrived et the home of his owner, John Filmer, at 336 Jersey street. Undoubtedly, as his owner believes, the bird has been in captivity somewhere be- tween here and Sacramento, and has just been let loose because of the law recently passed making it a misdemeanor to hunt or detain a pigeon. The fact that some of the tail feathers had been pulled out, and the aluminum band removed, seemed to indicate this. The remurkable thing, however, about the return of t: e bird 1s that it is now but nine months old. and has been in captiy- ity for more than a third of that time. It seems strange it would recollect its bear- ings. The pigeon isa California-strained bird. It shows that as good birds can be raised here as elsewhere. The occasion for letting loose of the feathered biped was the prize contest for which a cup was offered by Mr. Crowley. About 250 birds were let loose, and only 150 came home. Mr. Filmer let loose five birds during tbe training, and there are three of them of which he has yet heard nothing. B — Pearl Ladd To-Night.

As we study the gradual casting off of the fetters which bind thesoul to rebirth we come to that which is the most efficient agent in this work—the iaw of sacrifice. All must have been struck with the fact that there is not a religion in the world that has not secrifice as one of its essential ideas. Trke the highest religion that the world has known, or take the lowest, and still you can discover no reiigion, whether of the highest sect or of tig Jowest suvage, that has not the sacrificial idea for its center. The nature of the sacrifice will differ with the notionsof the people among whom is the religion; the nature of the offering will depend on the grade o evolution which the soul has reached. But however crude ihe conception or poor the working out, however low and mean and unintellectual the iaea of sacrifics may be, none the less out of that poor and base conception, if you look at the lives of the people, out of it you will find have grown the noblest impulses which these people have known. Consider the doctrine of the atonement in one of its lowest and crudest forms, Take it the most fgnorant people, Who put it in a form repulsive to higher thought, you will find—if you look at it in its working out in the lives ofithe peopie, in the inner regions where words are so littie and thought is 80 much—you will find that out of a burlesqued idea of sacritice there has grown the same high and exquisite devotion which ig the glory of every religion aud every phase of creed. Let us see if we can catch a climpse ol what this means. In the highest regions of the universe those who nave achieved, those who have gone far beyond the range where ocr limited sight can follow or where our feitered thought can touch; who have entered into the highest regions that we yet have knowledge of; these breathe out ofthat suoreme life rays which have in them something of themselves. They can send these s downward into a life that is exceptionaily pure, excaptionally devoted and spiritualized, overshadow ing that nature which is mighty by its purity, sithough it has not yet perhaps climbed to heights of knowledge. They can thus lend to it a divine quality, can breathe into it a divine power, and by the assent of that pure nature. by & real actof sacrifice, which that pure one is willing to make, such a one can be raised into a position where he becomes a source from which spiritual life may flow out to the wor:d, and into which, in strange fashion, the sorrow and the anguish of the world may pour; and, in return for the gift of sorrow, the gift of spiritual life flows forth. That is the mystery which is always implied in the lives of the great saviors of the world, When it fs said that ““they are the sorrows of men.” they “bore the sins of the world,” it is nota mere figure of speech; it is not & mere phrase, a dream which men have dreamed; it isa reality of the spiritual life that every soul of man which, by its aspirations, elimb< upward to the spiritual regfons, reaches therea point where there is no division, where that soul in- stinct with the divinelife becofes one with all souls in their sorrow. Not by separation, but by identification; not by a forced effection, but by the deepest reality of the spiritual lffe that soul reaches the plane where division is not, where the world and it are one. Ana tnus it can bear the world’s burden, its sin and its sorrow. It can bear the world’s fgnorance and breathe into the world its own divine life (and thus become at once the bearer of sorrows for man and the source to man of spiritual life]. But not only for the purest and noblest is this divine sharing of all things possible: not only for those who are 60 absolutely pure that the divine life can send them forth as saviors of the world; not only to them is this privilege given, but to others also according to their smalier measure. For every one who is willing to take on himself a pain that is not in his Karma, a sorrow that is not of his own past making, every soul which goes forward by that divine passion that comes from within and not from without, and which says: “I am willing to bear & pain that is not my own, willing to take a sorrow that is not of my own making, to be made & sharer in the life that takes all grief that it may give back all blessing,” everysoul that takes part of this burden on itself changes the pain that it takes into love and joy, which throngh it are given to the world. Think of sacrifice in the forn w= know it here. Think of that transmutation by fire that goes on, on an earthly alter, when you throw on to it some substance of earth, and as the fire plays upon it it seems to chanee, 50 that all the grosser and more solid parts disappear, and perchance there will rise from it & marvelous essence or incense from the alisr. It has changed its character as the fire has worked upon it. Even so, upon the aitar of the human heart, itis possible o throw suffering into the fire of love (*he one great iransmuting force that the earth knows, for love is divine, and it is the divine which everywhere transmutes and changes), su ffering which is not yours by compuision, for then were it no free gitt, suffer- ing that you trke by v our own voluntary accepiation—that you ask to take that the world mey thereby be helped. * This pain that you put upon the altar is worked upon by the fire, is changed, and gives out the very essence that is in it, coming forth as spiritual strength, spiritual prwer. I the course of ages knowledge and power to help are won by the pain that we endure; but in the higher regions of the universe that is done speedily Which is dore slowly here; what evolution here works out stage by stage is done in & moment by this concentrated fire of love, which is life. And so the discipie, as he rises higher and higher, at last makes zood his footing in the spiritual regions and is able to do in a moment what would take centuries or millenniums in accomplishing here. He can 1ake the pain and change it into power and send that spiritual life downward for the helping of the world. That is part of the law of sacrifice. to a greater extent, As the disciple grows higher and higner he can do this more and more; as ho grows nearer and nearer to th 0 that at last what he conld do perchance only for the few he becomes able 1o do for a larger number of his fellow-men. ith them. You must remember he takes from them as well as givi e One he can do it more swiftly and ever As he becomes one with them he is able to to them; but he »m them their sin and sorrow and gives back to them his life and love. there is even more—much more than that. ther way in which sacrifice is posstble renched a stage at w ma; sical encasement. clear vision can choose betier than it is When the disciple, climbing upward, has h consciousness can work frecly on the higher p.anes, but at which he ot vet bring back perfectly memory of all he does, there is & possibility that pain may be accepted there voluntarily, that falls on him when his It has been thus taken by those who bave g that carth can give, by those who have learned that the thir little in the life of the soul, who are able to see the rel: onsciousness is duiled by its phy- up desire for anything s of the lower Ilfe matfer but ive proportions of tnings, and by that ~ssible to choose in the Inwer world. Give your suffering, make it your offering for the whole and it will change into spiritual forces. 1f only fn your daily Ifves you can do it now and_then—not always—that would perchance be 00 hard. Butevery time you do it, you make it easfer 10 d it again. There is offered 0 you the joy of the higher regions, and there I leave it ; because all words are vain may spesk to soul. Tt all words seem almost irreverence, for speech is not sdequate, aud here only soul only the voice of the worldless that can voice it truly, for the words are not of earth; and :f the words of the speaker have marred the vision, and lack of'words have made the beauty seem less beautiful, then s soul I speak to soul. Not with mortal voice to mortal ears, not with these poor words my fongue can utier, but from myv heart to yours, from my soul to yours may come a thought that will tell you the light and the life are there. For this which 1 have tried (mr«-rrecrly to say 18 the very life of the universe, which rc breathes in the heart of every man om those great teachers ot wisdom. This is the mighty message which the masters of compassion have sent 10 the toiling world. If {t move not your heart the fault is not in the message but in the messenger; it is not in the thought but in the speaker. Letyour own hearts speax the message to yourseives, the message that only the inner self can speax to the outer,and you snallsee i clearly, undimmed by human inter- ference. For every man at least i his own priest to the god within him, and no other hands may touch without profanation the sacrifice which the human soul offers on the human heart to that Self which is the Seif of all. EX-AUDITOR SMILEY PASSES AWAY It Occufs at the French Hospital From Heart Disease. The Remains to Be Interred To- Morrow in the Odd Fel- lows’ Cemetery. After an il Iness of a few weeks’ dura- tion Thomas J. L. Smiley, ex-Auditor and ex-Registrar of Voters, passed away at the French Hospital yesterday at half- past 12 o'clock. The deceased had suffered from heart disease and went to the nospital about three weeks ago to be treated for that complaint. He apparently rallied and hopes were entertained of his ultimate restoration to normal health. But on Saturday he was stricken with paralysis and the verdict of the physicians was to the effect that he could not recover. He lost consciousness at 10 o’clock Thursday night. Mr. Smiley was 76 years of age, and came to California from his native city of Philadelphia in 1849. He had been a schoolteacher, but on reaching here went into the auction business. He alsoatonce became an active man of affairs. He was identified with the Volunteer Fire De- partment, represented Howard No, 8 in the board of delegates, and was president of Brannan Engine Company. He was also vice-president of the Vigilance Com- mittee. Governor Waterman appointed him Registrar of Voters seven vears ago, but a year later Governor Markham removed him. When Auditor David Stern died the Board of Bupervisorsappointea Mr. Smiley to succeed iim. Afterward he engaged in the stock brokerage business. The bodv was vesterday afternoon re- moved to Gray's undertaking-rooms. The funeral will take place at 2 o'clock to- morrow afternoon either from some church or from his former home on Brod- erick street. The interment will be in the 0dd Fellows' cemetery. FRACTURED HIS SKULL. A Ten-Year-Old Boy Falls From a Fence, With Perhaps Fatal Results. John Warren, a 10-year-old lad, who resides with his parents at 720 Tehama street, met with an accident yesterday evening which may possibiy result fatally. The boy was playing upon a fence in front of his residence, when he lost his bslance and jell heavily to the concrete sidewalk. He was taken to the Receiving Hospit where 1t was ascertained that he b tained a fracture of the skull. The injury was attended to by Dr. Weil, but the boy is 10 & critical condition. ' BURNED BY THE FAMOUS X-RAY A Butcher Claims to Have Suff:red From Its Operation. Thomas F. Marron Sues Dr. Philip Miiis Jones for Damages. T.e first action at law to recover dam- ages for injuries sustained by reason of ex- posure to the famous X ray was bezun in the Justice Court yesterday and will no doubt result in 1nteresting developments if it comes to trial. The man who claims that he suffered great mental and bodily anguish after nav- ing been exposed to the piercing light that | emanates from the Crookes tube is Thomas F. Marron, a butcher who is employed by 8. P. Hicks at 2010 Fiilmore street. In the complaint tiled yesterday he says that Philip Mills Jones, M.D., the X ray expert, is a duly licensed and practicing physician and that he is advertised as the director of the Waldeck X Ray Laboratory at Sutter street, and claims to be partic- ularly skillful in the use of Roentgen’s re- markable discovery. That on March 9 last he called at the physician’s headquar- ters and made arrangements to submit himself tothe searching beam of the tube for the purpo=e of ascertaining whether he was suffering from internal disorder. The operation took place on March 10 and 11, and Marron claims that it was so carelessly and negligently conducted that he was serionsly burned on the right side of his body from the neck to the waist; tnat both skin and flesh were burned and scorched, and that the injuries were of so serious a character that they have not yet healed. He says that he has not been able to attend to his business from the effect of the burns, and that he has had to expend $30 in doctors’ bills in an _effort to have the injured skin regain its normal condition. He asks, in addition o the amount paid the physician, $269 damages, as compensation for the pain he has en- dured. “I believe that malice on the part of the palient’s parents prompted the suit against me,” said Dr. Jones last evenimg, “and Iam not au all fearful that a judg- ment will be found against me. “Some time ago the plaintiff in the suit sgainst me broke a hvgadermlc needie off in his chest, and all efforts to locate the troublesome bit of steel by ordinary methods proved without avail. It was tinaily sugzested that the needle might be Jocated by means of the X ray and I was called upon to undertake the ékperiment. “A few days alier the young man had been subjected to the influence of the X ray he complained of a burn between his shoulder blades. t is true that he was subjected to the rays for some time, and the inflnence may have produced a slight irmtation, but nothing serious did or can come from it.”’ COILS TIGHTENING AROUND LORING Police Have More Evi- dence Regarding the Death of His Wife. The Deceased's Aate-Mortem Statement Corroborat:d by Several Witnesses. The Coromer Exhumed the Remains, but They Were Nutilated and the Autopsy Was a Fai ure. Captain Bohen of the detective depart- ment is quite confident that he hag woven a net of evidence around Robert Loring, the tinsmith, that will send him to the gallows for the murder of his wif In response to the request of the police, Coroner Hawkins had the remains of Mrs. Loring exhumed from Hoiy Cross Ceme- tery yesterday and taken to the Morgue. It was the hope of the police the autopsy would show that the peritonitis from which the unfortunate woman died was brought on by a kicking and beating ad- ministered by her husband. But in this they were disappointed, for Drs. Galia- gher and Morgan, the autopsy surgeons, found upon uncovering the body that a post mortem examination had already been periormed by somebody and further that the very organs they were expected to scrutinize had been removed. This state of affairs was something of a surprise and the Coroner at once notified the detectives regarding what had been discovered. Investigation developed the fact that after Mrs. Loring died at the Waldeck Sanitarium Dr. J. C. Stinson and Doctress Nathalie Seliing, who had attended her in ber illness, determined to make & post- mortem examination in order to dater- mine the exact cause of death. In other words they wanted to know if Mrs. Lor. ing’s dying statement to the effect that her conidition was brought about husbands violence, was true. They ex- plain now, so the police say, that their object in not notifying the Coroner of the case was to avoid notoriety and to save Loring’s children. The latter would be left Lelpless and homeless if the father were sent (o jail. Dr. Seiling surrendered Mrs. Loring’s ante-mortem statement to Detective Gib- son yesterday, and it is now to be used as the strongesi part of the evidence when Loring is taken into court. It is as fol- lows: Dying statement of Mrs Mary Loringof 5 Gordon street : 1, Mars Loring, believing myself at the point of death,do wisiingly and in my full senses make the following affidavit: That my hus- band, Robert Loring, seven weoeks ago lest Tuesday night, against my will, tried to kill my unborn child.” ke said he would kill the unborn babe, as he was tired of my bringing children 1nto the world. He was intoxicated ai the time. He hus always maltreated me and not supplied me with the necessities of life. Ido solemnly swear this is true before witnesses. Mes. MARY LORING. Witnesses—Mrs. M. Kipp, 511 Castro street; Nathalie Selliug, 814 Sutter sireet. Captain Bohen has an important list of witnesses who will give evidence against the man who 1s now sweltering in one of the City Prison “‘tanks.” Mrs. M. Kipp, who was one of the wit- nesses to the dying statement, says that the deceased visited her about three weeks and said sbe was suffering te r:ble agony as the result of the kicks she had received in the abdomen. SLe was in a delicate condition at the time and feared serious resuits. Mrs. Loring was taken violently ill pefore leaving the house, says Mrs Kipp, and had to be sent home in a coupe. Blhe never recovered from that illness. Mrs. Kipp was also with her on the day of her death. " Mrs. Loring told me that her husband NEW TO-DAY. A HEALTHY WIFE Is a Husband's Inspiration.

Mrs. Murphy of 1005 Hayes street savs in the statement that she made to Detec- tives Gibson and Wren, and which is now in the possession of Captain Bohen: “It was 1n_February that Mrs. Loring told me that her sickness was brought on by her husband, who struck her and kicked her shamefullv. She repeated this declaration to me two weeks before she died. I knew the poor woman for seven- teen years. She once worked for me. 1 am certain that her death was due to her busband’s brutal treatment.’” Two sisters of the deceased, a brother and a father have ail made lar state- ments 1o the police and wil If be witnesses 2gainst the imprisoned man. Loring aenies the charges made azainst him, but when seen last night declined to go into a detailed expianation, further than to say that his wife's death was the result of an operation she periormed her- iself. He says he never struck or kicked her. = Tho Spanish Carnival The gorgeous parade marking the inaugura. tion of the Spanish carnival wul form at Kearny snd Montgomer: s at 7:15 o'clock this evening.

The maladies which above all others cause nervousness sre d biliousness and constipation. The great sympathetic nerve which cone Bects the epigastric rogion with the brain is always injuriously affected if the stomach and bowels are disordered ; a permanent ement of the functions of those organs reacts by sympathy u the entire nervous system. Ripans Tabules in restoring tone and regularity to the digestive apparatus, and overcoming constipetion, permanently remedy the nervous complairts which originate in alimentary weakness or disturbances. They are the very best nervine that can be wused. By eradicating the exciting cause of nervous wealmess they perma- nently overcome the disability itself. But this is not all. By checking the maladies which cause nervousness they build up anew the system weakened and depleted by nervous disease.
