Faktor, one of the best shots of the California Schuetzen Club. The match was for $100 a side and the former won* As a matter of fact it was a freak matceh, | or contest more of endurance than skill. The conditions were that each man was to shootone continuous hour on the German 25-ring target, 200 yarde, and the one mak- ing the most points, withoui regard to the number of shots fired, was to win the prize. Faktor appeared upon the range with four fine 15-pound Schuetzen single-shot rifies and a pile of ammunition. Glinde- mann showed up with four Winchester 38- 55 repeaters, eight cartridges to the maga- zine. He was provided with about 800 smokeless-powder cartridges, as this ex- plosive does not heat or foul the barrels so much as the black powder. At the two targets were two crews of four markers, wheel-turners, target-shifters and referees, and at the scorers’ stand each principal was well represented. At 1o'clock the referee gave the word “fire.” and a perfect fusillade began. For an hour the racket was deafening, the re- peating rifles barking twice to the single shots' one. One man was kept busy load- ing the former and another had his hands Tull cooling off single-shot barrels. Empty For the first 70 to 100 shots it looked as though Fakior nad a walkover, for while he shot fairly fast he held well and several times he made runs of the Jast twenty minutes Glindemann got in a steady killing pace, every shot count- ing, and he made up his lost ground at a rapid rate, which resuited in his victory. When the hour bad expired and the shooting ceased Glindemann had fired 417 shots and Faktor 295. The scorers’ rec- ords showed that Glindemann had 5133 points to his credit and Faktor 4956, Fak- tor also bad & scorer at the targets keep- ing “tab” on Glindemann’s shots. That record gave the winner only 4983 points, slill 27 more than Faktor. The latter's friends claimed that the match was lost by tho wheel on Glindemann’s target not registering properly. Butit was a great match, and 1t caused nearly all the shoot- erson the ran.e to suspend operations and ratber in a lar;e crowd back ot the tWo big rapid-firing marksmen. The semi-monthly gathering of the Coinmbia Pistol and Ritle Club brought out a fair representation and some excel- lent scores were wade, particalarly by J. E. Gorman, who broke the revolver record of the coast if not of the United States. In six shots he made twenty points, Co- Jumbia target, which means that he placed his six shots in a 3l4-inch circle at fifty ds with a large revolver. His revolver- shooting all day was excellent. A. H. Pape lowered his record on the Bushneil medal to a total of 80, a gain of ten points over the last shoot.

He Has Borne a Grudge Against the O!d Lady. and Wanted Revenge. While She Was Amusing Herself With Her Dogs, He Threw Her Off Third-Street Wharf. William Herron, 8 young man who has been wont to let the years of his life roll gently under him without extremely exerting himself to attain fame or for- tune, all but augmented the list of mur- derers yesterday afternoon at 4:30 o’clck. In an endeavor to avenge a real or fancied wrong done him he threw an aged lady, Mrs. Mary Miiler, who resides at 518}4 Bryant street, from Third-street wharf, into the chilling waters of the bay. After committing the crime he slowly walked away, taking no notice of the drowning woman's screams and stolidly refusing to assist her rescuer. Mrs. Miller daily takes two dogs to Third-street wharf and for some time tosses bits of woud into the water for them to leteh. Herron happened to pass theold lady when she was Manding on the wharf’s edge and for a time he loitered near her. Then he suddenly placed his hand on her shoulder and hurled her into the bay. Mrs. Miller soon came tothe surface and screamed for assistance, all the time making frantic endeavors to keep her head above water. James Peterson, watchman of the schooner George W. Preston, saw Herron’s act, and hurrying to a boat, put out to the old lady’s assist- ance. He reached her as she was about to sink a second time, and dragged her to the wharf. She was removed to her home, and outside of a severe Iright, was unin- jured. Herron, who quietly walked away from the scene, was_pointed out and arrested by Officers O'Reilly and O’Connor, who charged him with assanit to murder at the Soutnern police station. At the station ine prisoner denied ha ing made an attempt on Mrs. Miller's life and said she fell into the bay acci- dentally. He acknowledged seeing her fall, but when asked why he refused to go to her rescue said, *'I wouldn’t haul her out of the bay if she were dead.”” “The trouble which yesterday afternoon culminated in the aitempt io take my life took place between my assailanc and me over two years az0,” said Mrs. Mi last evening. ‘‘At the time I was living at 56014 Bryant street, and young Herron, his‘moti’er and his brother Frank occu- pied the tlat above me. | ““One day William Herron set an ash- | barrel near my door and I asked him to | remove it, as the wind scattered the ashes over my floor. refused with curses, | and the next day Frank, in an endeavor | to aggravate me, scattered the ashes over my front porch. I expostulated with nim and he siruck me a blow in the eye. Shortly after that I moved, but neverthe- | less William bas alwayssborne a grudge against me, and yesterday aiterncon nearly succeeded in taking my life for re- venge. MOTHER PINEER O Death of John A. Drinkhouse Who Cams to California in 1849 Close of a Long Career That Was Varied by Many Vicissitudes of Fortune. John A. Drinkhouse, 8 prominent pio- neer and business man of this City, died yesterday at his residence, 2502 Broagway. He leaves a widow, and four children— two sons, John Arthur and Frederick R. Drinkhouse, and two daughters, Lulu and Hilda. Mr. Drinkhouse held & prominent *posi- tion among the early settlers of the State. When 30 years of age he gave up a clerk- ship in his father’s store in Philadelphia, attracted by the accounts of the gold dis- ¢overies in California. With several oth- ers he started with a cargo of house- irames, building material and miscella- neous articles and arrived at San Francisco with it on the barx Maria on the 15th of December, 1849, his associates had cleared $7000 on the venture. He next established a place of business on Montgomery street, but a dis- astrous fire destroyed his establishment and jor the time almost involved him in financial ruin. In his difficulties he fell back upon his musical talents, which served him in good stead, for after playing bis violin for se¥- eral years in San Francisco and many towns of the Stale, he saved enough to enable him again to embark in commer- cial yentures. Like many others of the days of 49, the deceased pioneer at various times ex- perienced the extremes of adversity ana prosperity. At onetime he loaned money to Mark Hopkins at10 per cent, and Collis P. Huntington was also one of his debtors. Besides being engaged as a wholesale cigarand tobacco dealer, he was actively engaged in numerous mining enterprises, In ail his business undertakings he ex- hibited the prudence and sagacity for which he was known in commercial circles, - ‘The funeral will. be held to-morrow afternoon at 2:30 o’clock a Pioneer Hall. SPARRERS STRIKE HARD. [The Park Museum Annex and the Boiler-House Are Rapidly Going Up. The sparring match at the Chutes yes- terday between the Californian, Jim Jeff- ries, and Billy Woods of Denver was pro- nounced by the manager to be the best exhibition of the kind that has ever taken place there. There was evidently no mu- tual agreement between the sparrers to deal tenderly with each other, and the whack of the heavy blows could be heard far out on the grounds. There were three rounds, and in each Jeffries showed a su- periority over his opponent, althvugh the Denver man landed a number of clever blows. By the end of the third round Woods was pretty badly winded and both cheeks were bleeding. ‘The crowd at the park and ocean beach was very light considering the fine weather. At the Sutro baths there were some aaditions to the programme which were of much merit.

Occupants of the Point’ House Lose All Their Personal Effects. The A. Steiger’s Sons Pottery at First Supposed to Be the Seat of the Fire. The Point Hcuse, a two-story frame hotel situated near the packing-house of the Western Meat Company at South San Francisco, was totally destroyed by fire early yesterday morning. The fire wus discovered by James Lindhood, who was asleep in the building at the time the fire broke out. Only one of the remaining ten boarders was in the botel at the time, most of the others being in the City. An alarm was turned in at the packing- house, and immediately afterward an alarm wassounded at South San ¥rancisco, a mile and a balf away. The fire equipment at that place consists of a singie hose- cart and, as there was no engine to pump the water to the building, nothing could be done to check the progress of the flames. Besides tbe alarm in the town, the whistle of the theater train which was just passing South San Francisco at the time served to arouse the residents of the vicinity. All the belongings of the boarders that were in the building were destroyed. One of the men had leit §120 in gold in his om, and in the morning he discovered in a molten lump among the ashes. The hotel site is only a few hundred yards from the pottery oi A. Steiger's Sons, which was located at. Baden less than two years nIgn, alter being burmed out at San Jose. It wasthought at first that the pottery was in flames, on account of the great illumination made by the fire. The building was the property of the Western Meat Company and was rented until the 1st of June to R. Williams, The greatest Jo-s falls upon the bearders, who | iost their belongings, the building itself having been insured. FORTY BOURS' DEVOTION.

In striking contrast to the above sad case s that of Mrs. E. Hardin, 3.950 Ger- mantown Avenue, Philadelphia, Pa., wife of the Clerk of the Board of Mducation. who says: * For thirty vears I suffered with sick headache, which appeared in attacks of severe pain, so Intense that I ‘was obliged to remain in bed for days at a time. These attacks appeared al- most every week, and at no time did I ever receive relief, although I consulted the most skilled physicians in the city. The headaches seemed to wear them- selves out and then commence anew. At last I was induced to try Munyon's Headache Cure. The relief was magical and almost instantaneous. I followed up the treatment and was completely_cured —for three years have passed and T have had no return of the headaches. T have recommended Munvon’s Remedies to a number of my friends, and I have re- ceived their most sincere thanks for many worderful cures thet have been ac- complished by these iittle pellets.” Professor Munyon has a separate spe cific for each disease, the only logical avstem of medicine. —_— e ¥EW TO-DAY—AMUSEMENTR BALDWIN THEATER.
