OAKLAND, CAn, May 3.—To-morrow afternoon at 2 o'clock Benjamin Hill, the wife-murderer, whose appeal to the Su- preme Court has been denied, will be bap- ed in the Methodist faith by Dr. Kum- mer in the County Jail. For several months Hill has professed conversion, and A. B. Deming, one of his spiritual advisers, has urged him to be immersed, accoraing to Scripture, but as | the Methodist faith allows either method, the form known a3 “sprinkling” will be used. | Contrary to the usual custom in such | cases, Hill’s jailers believe him to be sin- | cere, as he has practiced for several months | what he has preached. W hen his desire for baptism was made known to the Sheriff he consented to allow the ceremony to be performed in the jail, and Dr. Kummer was selected to perform the service. ““The reason I am to be baptized,”’ said Hill this morning, “is I believe the Lord desizesit.

The couple were married last November ana just a month after her marriage the wife suddenly became in- sane and was committed to Aznews. Four weeks later she was discharged as cared, but on her return she found no home and went to live with her sister. Partenscky declared that he was not able to sunport his wife, as he contribules out of his small salary to the support of his mother. The motion was taken under advisement. Called to a Pastorate. OAKLAND, Car., May 3.—Miss Rosine Edwards, a student at the Pacific Theo- logical Seminary, has received a call to | the pastorate of the Hillyard Congraga- tional Church in Washingfon. An interesting circumstance is that she | succeeds her father in this church. Heis the Rev.

Now he has peen in- vited to the pastorate of the Pilgrim Con- gregational Church on Indiana avenue, in Spokane, and Miss Rosin , his talented daughter, was the chvice of the congrega- tion as his successor. In the seminary, in this city, Miss Edwards bas been very popular and is greadly esteemed by her feliow students.

This was at | the request of the proprietors of one of the ‘‘billiard parlors.”” Saloons pay no Iicense on tables, as they come under the general yearly license of $500. Trustee Brick advocated a general readjustment of business licenses, claiming that they are unequal, that the city is not deriving the income ‘that it shoutd and that the eratuitous license petitions are being overdone. The time for this readjustment was iuopportune, however, thelicense year having expired with the month of Apri and 80 no action was taken on the sugges- tion. City Electrician Wiese reported expenses of the municipal electric light plant to | have been $389080 for the quartor, and | $4045 65 as the receipts. Reasons were | given for the large construction account, and a request was made to appoint some disinterested person to examine and re- | port upon the valuation of the plant. | Trustee Clark for the lizht committee said | this suggestion wouid be acted upon now that the construction account is closed in order that interest and wear and tear may be computed.

Poured Whisky on the Ground and Afterward Kicked the Smuggler. The Superintendent Is Arrestel for Battery, and Says He Is Anxious to B: Heard in Court OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCIS00 CALL,) 908 Broadway, May 3. Superintendent Littlefield of the Corral Hollow coal mines will be tried at Liver- more this week ona charge of battery. The circumstances attending it are rather unusual, Mr. Littlefield applied his boot in an unceremonious manner to Censtantino Machia, who has persisted in trying to sell liguor upon the premisesowned by the coal-mine company. Mr. Littlefield has made a rule that no liquor sball be soid on the premises, nor supplied to the men if it be possible to avoidit. Fora long time he has been bothered by people who surreptitiously carried liquor on the premises and sold it to the miners. Upon the principle that the company would be heid responsible for accidents arising from incompetent employes, the superin- tendent argues that he is justified in using all the means within his power to keep liquor-dealers away. ast week Constantino Machia of Liver- more had several jugs of whisky in a wagon on the premizes. What occurred is best related by Mr. Littlefield: “This man Machis,” he said, “'and two other dealers of Livermore, have been fur- nishing the miners with whisky. Not- withstanding tbe strict prohibitory meas- ures we have enforced to keep liquor away from the mines, they have found a way to bring it there. . Not longago I met Machia with a load of whisky in 8 wagon, which he was driving on our property. I ordered him off the place and warned him never 10 bring liguor there aguin. I asked him if he understood me, and he answered that he did. A few aays afterward I learned that he was bringing up liquor to tbe miners after nightfall, arriving some- times as late as midnight. “Finally last week Machia grew boider and came to the mines with a load of liquor. [ met him just off the county road and did not lose any time pulling bim out of his wagon and attempting to kick a little docency nto him. I then roke all his whisky-jugs and compelled him to leave the premises.” Mr. Litiletield was afterward arrested on a charge of battery, and he declares ue is quite willing_for the case to come to a speedy trial. He says he isa busy man, and it is his duty to protect the interests of the property and lives placed in his charge, and as his time is limited he in- stituted a speedy and effective method of abatinz what be consicered a nuisance. At the mines several bundred people are employed. Before the mines were opened many of these men constituted the unem- ployed of Livermore and locality, and the residents of the town have expressed their willingncss to support Mr. Little- field in his tusk of keeping liquor from the miners. The case will be tried before Judge Tay- lor some day this week. FILL MANY OFFICES. Supervisors Will Discuss the Tunnel Project Wednesday Night. OAKLAND, CaL, May 3. —The Super- visors to-day received the reports of the various bodies, civic and mercantile, in- terested in the method of crossing the es- tuary. I'he special committee of the city of Al- ameda, Oakland Board of Trade and Mer- chants’ Exchange were present and Aud- jtor Snow outlined tothe boar the wishes and plans in regard to a tunnel that have already been published. He asked that the Supervisors appoint a committee to meet the delegation and discuss the mat- ter, and next Wednesday evening, at 8 o’clock, the Supervisors will meet as a committee of the whole to discuss with other delegations the question ot tunnel- ing or bridging.

United States District Judge Morrow yesterdey rendered an opinion in the case of the Pacific Improvement Company against the uenmshiP Monticello, Z. J. Hatch claimant, a libel for salvage services. Judge Morrow said : I am of the opinion that the service ren- dered in the case at bar, if it can bo deemed a salvage service at all,'is of a very low order. The Monticeilo was not in any immediate peril or danger, nor does theevidence indicate that she would have been in a dsngerous position before the arrival of the tugs which had been sent for. The San Benito did not ex- perience avy risk or peril in rendering the service, and beyona a delay of five hours, a slight Shift of her cargo, the chafing of ner hawser and the 10ss of some rope, does not ap- pear to have suffered any pariicuiar incon- venience. It was testified that the charge for towage services by a tug from the locality where the San Benito towed the Monticello would be from $125 to §250. The claimant had tendered the sum of $200. Iam of the opinion. however, that under the circum- siances the San Benilo is entitled to more than the amouut tendered, and something more thanthe ordinary towage compensation. 1 shall allow the sum of $350, which amount will cover the damage doue to the hawser and the loss of the rope. A decree will be entered in accordance with this opinion. —— e OORINTHIAN YACHT OLDUB. Regattas and Cruises That Will Be Held This Season.

Guests Applaud Major Darling's New Musical Composition, * Dear, Do You Remember ?” ‘Lo Mrs, Darling must be accredited the honor of presiding at the most elegant and elaborate function of the post-Lenten ceason. This great affair was a musicale and tea given yesterday afternoon in the varlors of the Occidental Hotel compli- mentary to Mrs. Collis P. Huntington, who, with her distinguished husband, is spending a few weeks at the white man- sion on the hill. Mrs. Darling proved her rare tact and hospitable qualification by giving an en- tertainment in exact accordance with the | taste of her guest. Mrs. Huntington is passionately fond of | music, but prefers the quiet pleasures of | the home circle to the delights of the crowded drawing-room. Consequently a musical programme was a necessity, and 2 small gathering equally important. Out of her long visiting list of 600 Mrs. Darling selected 150 favored names—no easy {ask— and with equal good taste provided for the afternoon an excellent musical pro- gramme. : The large drawing-room of the Occiden- tal was a beautiful picture with its ex- auisite decorations in honor of the occa- sion. Glowing crimson, the artillery color, was used with exquisite and artistic effect. Long streamers of crimson bunting draped the walls, being fastened at regu- lar intervals by golden stars. On the mantel were roses galore and on the long table from which the refreshments were served deep red carnations made a most elaborate decoration. The hours of the tea were from 3 to 5, during wnich ladies and gentlemen crowded the rooms to listen to the excel- | lent music and grest the distinguished visitor. After 4 o'clock Mr. Huntington joined the throng and added his commen- Hation_to that of the many in praise of Major Darling’s latest musical composition ‘“Dear, Do You Remember?” Other gems from the same prolific source formed a part of the programme, noted as the com- positions of August Mignon, the name under which the gallant Major vainly strives to hide his merits. The programme of the afternoon in full was as follows: «Blessed Dreams” (August Mignon), *The 014, 01d Story” (Blumenthal), “Dear, Do You Remembar?” (August Mignon), Mrs. Etta B. | Blanchara, contralto; “Vaise Caprice” (August Mignon), “Love's Dream” (F. Liszt), Miss arrie Bowes, pianist; “For My Dear Ladv's Sake’” (Angust Mignor), “Dolly” (August Mig- Fickle Mollie” (August Mignon), Miss , soprano; *“A Summer’s Night” (A. Goring Thom: “Adrift” (August Mignon), a B. Blanchard, contraito: 'Twas | evin), “Nina"' (Wekerlin), Mrs. Eva Tenney, soprano; “Gavotte Militaire” (August | Mignon), “Grand Polonaise” (I Liszi), Miss | Carrie Bowes, pianist; Moroney, accompanist. Mrs. Darling was assisted in receiving her guests by Mrs. C. T. Dio Hastings, Mrs. J. H. Jewett, Mrs. Henry Dodge, Mrs. Fry, Mrs. Huntington and Miss Campbell. 10 PATTOR THE BALL High School Cadets Are Prepar- ing for an Exhibition Drill. Miss M. Genevieve ih> Event Will Be H:ld at the First Regiment Armory a Week From Saturday. The cadets of the Boys’ High School are preparing to give a grand exhibition drill in order to defray the expenses of their annual ball, which is always one of the leading social events of the season. The event will take place on the even- ing of Saturday, the 15th inst., at the armory of the First Regiment, N. @ C., 25 Page street, and the youngters are | drilling at every available opportunity under the watchful eye of veteran militia- men, who declare that their work is as ood if not better than that of many com- | panies in the State troops. The exhibition will consist of many fancy evolutions in addition to the mov: ments set forth in the tactics, and the company on the eventful night will be commanded by Captaip L. E. Edwards, the chief officer of the cadets. There is but one company in the High School Cadets. and this has been brought to a high state of efficiency by constant ractice. The ball to which the boys are ooking forward with much pleasurabie anticipation is to be held on the 25th inst. in the auditorium of the Girls®' High Bchool, which will be tastefully decorated with the National colors and many mili- tary emblems for the occasion.

HABITS OF THE HEN, The Case of Cruelty Against Miss Mary McKinney, Schoolteacher, Dis- missed. Miss Mary McKinney, a schoolteacher, was up before Judge Joachimsen yester- day to answer a charge of cruelty to ani= mals. It appears that a pullet belonging to Mrs. K. Floethr, a housewife, living at 411 Thirty-fifth avenue, strayed away a week a0 and went foraging into the McKinney yard. The neighbor objected to having her plants pecked by the fowl and, according to Mrs. Floethr, proceeded to belabor the hen with a cluo, ultimately casting it over :he fence into the Floethr yard, and in due time, according to the testimony, it had to be killed, properly ccoked and dined off by the family. Attorney Cabaniss, for the defense, won his case by his bright answer to the state- ment made by the Juage, which held that it was the natural instinct of the hen to roam about and seek her food where she might best getit. He replied that it was tne natural instinct of the human being to protect his property against the predatory habits of any animal, even the chicken. e Coroner’s Inquests. The Coroner’s jury beld two inquests yester- day, one on the body of Mrs. Mary R. Loring, who died suddenly on April 18, The verdict was that her death was caused by injuries in- flicted by her husband, Robert Loring, while she was in a delicate condition.
