. s THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, APRIL 27, 1897. AMES LANDED A LONG-PRICED ONE Don Gara Led His Field QOut at Odds of 200 to 1. Willie Martin Rode a Nicely Timed Race Astride Cabrillo. | Perhaps Enjoyed a Cike Walk—Elr; more Led the Favorite, Rey Salazar, Past the Wire. | Race-goers to Ingleside yesterday were treated to s mild sort of & surprise in the way of seeing & 200 to 1 shot in the betting | step over the finishing line first. Don Gara, & colt owned by Mrs. A. Arcner, whose siring of victories is about as long as an English pug dog’s nasa! appendage, won the third raceon the card at these long odds. Outside of one fortunate specu- lator he was scarcely nibbled at in the ning, and after opening at 100 went o 200 tol. He was secend to Emma D into the stretch and then, gradually forging ahead, beat the roan mare out a neck, covering the six furlongs in 1:153%. Olive finished | third, with the 9 to 20 choice Mobalask back in the ruck. ! Of the other events decided, favorites in | the betting took thres. The day was cold snd foggy, which militated against very fast_time, though the track was in fair condition. Fashion Plate, s filly by Racine, carry- ing Joe Harvey's colors and 50 to 1 in the beiting, came within a short nead of land- ing the opening event for maiden {hree- year-olds. Rufalba, with Willie Martin | up, was a consistent 6 to 5 favorite throughout the betting, but never looked dangerous during the running. Fashion Plate led all the way, and after tiring about & furlong from the wire, came agzain and was beaten out the narrowest of margins by the 235 to 1 second choice Florimel, carrying the Spreckels colors, The six-furiong selling run that fol- | lowed lookea s gift for Perhaps with | Shaw in the saddle, yet he was allowed to | drift back in the betting from 3 to 5 to even. The brown gelding led from the jump, wiuning easily at the finish, a length shead of Doubtful, the second choice. Jack Martin, a 12'to 1shot, run into show. Willie Martin piloted the evenjmoney choice Cabrillo to victory in the fourth race decided, a mile and & sixteenth run, under seiling conditions. Taking him at | once to_the front, he never relinquished the lead and passed the judges a neck in | aavance of San Marco, with Morte Fonse | third a bead further away. The time, | 1:493;, was fast, considering]the unfavor- | able climatic conditions. The start to the next event, a six-fur- long sprint, was an unfortunate one, Palmerston, Howard and Major Cook be- | ing left atthe post. Strathrol, the 4 to 5 choice, was away first, and making all the running won easily from Una Colorado, & 15 to 1 shot _excellently ridden by Patsy Freeman. Midas, well played st iong odds, finished third. Tae final five-furlong scramble was cap- tured by the Burnsand Waterhouse entry, Eismore, at sixes in the betting, which outsprinted the even money [avorite, Rey Salazar, at the last furlong and won handily by less than a length in 1:03%. Siva, a 15 to 1 shot, was & good third. The number of bookmakers weighing in | was reduced to fourteen yesteraay. They were not overburdened with business. lddie Ames rode a very good race astnide Don Gara and should be able to get more mounts in future. Joe Harvey increased his bank roll con- | siderably by backing his filly Fashion | | false pretenses from Louise Poter, an unsophis Plate, which ran second in tbe opening race at oddsof 50to 1, and capped the climaxby winning $6000 on the long shot Don Gara. = Eimwood stock farm has a curiosity in the form of twin colts, dropped by the mare Kathleen by Shanncn, on Friday last. Imp. Brutus is the sire of tne husky little fellows, both of which zive promise of sume day sporting the Boots black and white colors if present indications count for anything. Itisa very unusual occur- rence. One is a chestnut, the other a bay. Morte Fonse was possessed of much more speed in yesterday’s race ihan be exnibited on Saturday.

Judge Joachimsen is haying novel points sprung upon him in regard to Chinese gambling cases. Attorney Richurds, in the case of Woo Bing, charged with visiting a gambling place at 815 Washington street, argued | some days ago that it must first be proved | that the place was a gambling-house and second that the person went there for the purpose of gambling. The Judge decided that the point was not well taken, in view of recent decisions, and ordered Woo Bing and forty-five others to appear for sentence to-day, when appeal papers will iixely be filed. Yesterday Attorney C. J. Campbell, in Kowalsky, Babe Tmp. Trance, the case of Ah Poy, charged with visiting | a gambling place’ at 125 Waverly place, sprang another point upon the Judge, which be has taken some days to think over. Attorney Campbell contendad that sub- division 3 of section 33 of the ordinance 1587, under which the arrest was made,was | unreasonable and void. inasmuch as it made the penalty for visiting the same as | for keeping or maintaining & gamoling- bouse. He quoted numerous decisions in support ot his contention. The subdivision reads that any person keeping, maintaining or visiting any place for the purpose of gambling is liable upon conviction to a fine not exceeding $500 or imprisonment for six montts, or by both el Affection Was a Poor Collateral. Andrew J. Weir is on trial in Judge Wal- ’s court, charged with obtaining $200 by 1 ticated German girl. Although a married man, Weir made iove to the young woman, andshe says he promised to marry h In order to show that his sffection was recipro. cated, she gave him all her money. Several of hislove-letters were read (o the jury. They were exceedingly affectionate in tone snd greatly interested Mrs. Weir, who was present in court. Further testimony will be heard to- day.

Fourth of July Money May Not Get Into the Boulevard Fund. Supervisor Smith Wan's Quincy- Street Houses to Be Allowed to Fall Into D:c:y. Mayor Phelan came out first best in his tilt with District Attorney Barnes over the hiring of assistant counsel at the meeving of the Board of Supervisors vesterday. His veto of Attorney James J. Dunne’s appointment was upheld al- most unanimously and the authorization for services already periormed was also sustained. The Mayor made the following reply to the recent letter of District Attorney Barnes in relation to the employment of special coun: 8N FrANCISCO, April 24, 1897, To the Honorable the Board of Supeivisors of the City and County of San Froneisco—GENTLE- MEN: In his lctier of April 17, the District Atiorney, in justification of his demand for special assistani counsel, says that the Board of Supervisors is authorized to provide add - tional assistance to the various departments of the municipal government and that this power hus been conspicuousiy exercised in the matier of the Assessor's office, the Recor- der's cflice, the County Clerk’s office, eic. I find that this was done by express statvtory enaciment. (Seesct of March 30, 1872, and act of March 26, 1895.) The cases ciled by the District Attorney nave no application to the matter before us, for the reason that they aflirm the right of Boards of Supervisors to employ additional counsel in civil matters and not in criminal c In the case of Modoc County vs. S,encer & Raker (103 Cal,, 498), decided in 1894, the Supreme Court held that “Boards of Supervisors are creatures of the statute, and the'authority for any act on their partmust be suught in the statute’’; that “under the county government act Boards of Supervisors have no power to employ counsel on behalf of the county to prosecute or assist in the prosecution of erk inal cases prosecuted in the name or on behaif of the people of tne St and that the “al- lowauce by the Board of Supervisors to atior- neys for assisung in the prosecution of crim- inal cases is void, sud creates no legal claim against the county.” In this connection I desire to call your at- tention 1o the fsct that ithe payment of the salery ol the Assistant aliowed by the last Board of Supervisors for sixteen months, terminating January, 1897, ad amous ng to £4000, was paid accoraing 10 this deeision in violation of Iaw. The court in the case cited above says that the county hus no concern as to the prosecution of criminal cases, and if the District Attorney needs assistance he must eali on the Attorney- General under section 470 of the Political Code A5 10 the prosecution of pure food cases I woutd remind your honorable board that you have emploved in tl:e Police Courts four pros- ecuting stiorneys at $3000 & year each and four assistant prosccutiug atiorneys, whose | duty iz is generally to prosecute ail such cases, and that & demand for special counsel is a refle upon their competency and upon the wisdom of your selection. The board completed its vote of confi- dence to the Mayor by sustaining two vetoes of privileges pranted shopkeepers to extend their show-windows over the sidewalks. Supervisor Delaney introduced a resolu- tion turning over the $3000 appropriated for the celebration of Lndependence day o the boulevard fund, but it was objected to by Supervisors Britt and Lackmann, who thought that the celebration of July 4 should be fostered in every way, an d that if the City wanted 10 contridbute to tbe boulevard expenses it should do so in some other way. It was sucgested that perhaps the transfer would not be legal, and tue mat- ter was finally referred to the Finance Committee, Mark Lane presented a vigorous protest against the fund being diverted from the purpose for which it was originally in- tended. He declared that the safety of the Republic rested on keeping alive the tires of patriotism and love of country in the hearts of its citizens, particularly the rising generation, and that every fire- cracker if not every grain of powder used on_Independence day performs 1ts office in keeping up precious patriotism. A resolution permitting alterations and revairs to a building on Bacon piace, for- merly Quincy street, brought a strong protest irom Supervisor Smith. He de- clared that no improvements of any kind should be permitted on houses used for the purposes Quize eet structures are used, saying that they should be allowed to decay as early as possible. They were a disgrace to the City, he said, and their owners should not be_given any en- couragement. Supervisor Rottanzi took a band in the discussion, and then Super- visor Delaney moved that the entire mat- tor be postponed for one week. He stated that some changes in the names of streets were contemplated and that Bacon place might be renamed Rottanzi street. The matter was postponed a week. The board voted to pass Supervisor Rottanzi’s high-hat ordinance to print, but Supervisor Smith gave notice of a re- consideration, which bars the progress of the measure for the time being. Proposals for printing delinquent tax- lists were submitted as follows: Evening Post 4134 cents per nams, Report § cents ver name, Bulletin 7 25 cents per name. Bids were referred to the Printing Com- mittee. The matter of permitting the erection of high fences about town for advertising purposes was referred to the City and County Attorney for a legal opinion on the question. 7 —_————— STREET IMPROVEMENTS.

Then Changed Her Body. “'Some people fail to arrive at correct conclusions because they are too hasty, and I have to watch myself on that ve y point,” said a lady, “I said to a frieng the other day that I didn’t fancy the grain coffee, Postum, although nearly all my friends use it. We tried it once, bu: it didn’t taste as good as [ had been told it would, so we didn’t serve it any more. My friend asked pleasantly whether we ever had trouble with our coffee or tea, and was told that now and then the coffee was “‘sloppy” or burned, and occasionally the tea was unfit to drink, but them, you know, I said, we know coffee and teacan pe made good, so it is some faiiure with the cook if tuey come to the table unfit. ‘‘Ab, there’s the point.”’ my friend ex- cluimed. *“Now we have been using Postum steadily for about a year and we know its magnificent qualities as a nour- ishing beverage; but, mind you, 1have scen it served at my table once<or twice almost unfit to drink, and we got one peckage lastsummer that was overcooked at the factory and was not good, but which ihe grocer replaced; these inci- dents do not change the fact that Postum is a delicious, Lealtky and nourishing beverage, as proven day after day in our family. You should not hastily condemn a new thing upon one imperfect trial, as you de- prive yourself of benefits which a fair test would make yours.” ‘These comments sion, and, acting on her advice, I hunied up the jackage of Pos- tum, brewed some myself for breakfast the next morning, and it really was as de- licious to my taste as a high-grade coffee. I noticed that morning tnat the heavy, disagreeable feeling (usual after breakfast with coffee) was absent. This set me thinking and wondering if it was true, after all, that coffec did slightly poison my liver and stomach and make me feel s0. I concluded to quit coffee and tea a while, anyhow, and try Postum, and am glad to say that for that, or some other reason, I never felt better in my life than I have since the change.” “Just as good” as Postum Cereal are. woras used to defraud the public. made an _impres- ELY'S CREAM BALM is a positivecure.
