The tug-of-war was the occasion of con- siderabla disputing between the coal com- panies’ teamsters. P. A. McDonalda’s team of nine was objected to on the ground that they had been imported into his service inside of the prescribed period within which eligibles should have been entered. Theresuit of all this was tuat his men did not pull. The tug-of-war was the greatest event of the games, and in the contest Dunsmuir’s teams came out victorious. The first rattle was between the teams of the Oregon Improvement Company and & pick-up team led by Captain | George Kramer. The result of this was |'decided in fayor of the Oregonians 1L the guick time of 1 minute and 30 seconds. |~ The pitch battle of the day’s sports was between the Ore- gon team and that of Dunsmuir’s nine. |~ The Oregonians were anchored by P. | Doherty, with Captain P. McArdle, while | the Dunsmuir rine had Alexander Hyde for captain and J. Korlon for anchorman. This was one of the kest contests of the day, as the teams were evenly divided and each pulled with all the strength and te- nacity within its power. Inch by inch, however, the rope traveled toward the Dunsmuir men, until afteralong and te- dious drag of 47 min. 10}4 sec, the cleat was crossed on the Dunsmuir. sige. The result was hailed with great rejoicing by the Dunsmuir peopie, who were both nu- merous and enthusiastic. On the whole, a betteg day and a more successful outing could not have been en- joyed by the most fault-finding of San | Francisco’s people. | CHAMPIONSHIP TENNIS. | Players Ready and Anxious for the Tournament Which Will Commence To-Morrow. | | | -The expert tennis players of this State | will gather on the tennis court at Ssn | Rafael to-morrow, the occasion being the | annual tournament for the championship |'singles.

Margaret - Percy, a Violently ' Insane Woman, Sent to Stockton. Margaret Percy, an unmarried woman over 40 years of age, was sent to the Stock- ton asylum ‘yesterday by the Insanity Commissioners. - She is a domestic, out of employment, and was living with Mrs, | Murray, 1642 Polk street. ‘Tuesday night she sprang out of a door- way at Trenty-third and Guerrero streets { upon a lady who was walking past accom- panied by her nusband. She tore off the lady’s hat, but before she could doany further damage the lady’s husband eaught hold ‘of her and yelled for help. Two po- ! licemen came to his assisiance, and the patrol wagon was summoned. The woman fought all the way to the Receiving Hospital, and bit and scratched the of- ficers. Durinz the night she tore nand- fuls of hair out of her head, and made a wreck of the padded cell. —————— Foreciosing a Mortgage. George S, Crim has instituted an action at law against Patrick D.

THE PRESDD MAY BE WIRED Obsolete Fashion of Light- ing With 0il to Be Abandoned. The Department Has Invited Estimates for Electric Liglits at the Post. Plans and Figures Have Been Sub- mitted by the Edison Light and Power Company. Estimates have been prepared with the view of lighting the Presidio reservation with electricity. The plan includes inter- ior and exterior lighting and embraces the officers” mess, the clubhouse, the post exchange, headquarters, the dwelling- houses, barrcks, offices and all the walks, drivesand avenues of ths garrison and re- serve, The subject was brought to the atten« tion of the War Department oy the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce and the fact submitted that the present system:of lighting with oil was inconvenient, inade- quate and ancient. . The department re- ferred the communication of the Chamber of Commerce to the chief quartermaster. and in structions were given to the quarter- master of this department to procure esti- mates of the expenseof wiring the reser- vation to'connect with the City’s system of electric lighting .and “also to present figures as to tiie cost of an independent plant. Joseph Crockett was seen yesterday at the office of tie Consolidated Gas and Electric Lighting Company on Post street, and said in reply to questions that esti- mates had been prepared in accordance with the desires of the Government. The plans, with an estimate of the entire cost, were finished yesterday. ‘‘Lighting by electricity will be: more expensive than the present system of lighting with- oil lamps,” said Mr. Crockett, **but we pro- pose to do the work better, not cheaper. We offer to supply a modern, first-class and convenient system of lighting the res- ervaiion. Thedanger of fire will be greatly diminished, and the advantages which resicentx of othersections of the City enjoy will be extended to the army people at the Presidio. Yes, 1 unaerstand that the gar- risons adjoining New York and Boston have electric lights.” General Weeks of the Quartermaster’'s Department, Washingion, may arnve in tnis City to-day or ‘to-morrow. Itis sur- mised that he will give (he proposition to light the Presidio earnest and careiul a tention. ‘His recommendations, whatever they may be, will doubtless receive .the approvai of the W BINE FOR SPRINELING, The Merchants’ - Association Pleased With Its First Experiments: Streets Are Easier to. Keep Free From the Usual Clouds of Flying Dnst. The proposition to sprinkle Market street with salt water has been seriously considered by the Merchants’ Association for a long time, bud it is only recently that & practical test on the uptown streets has been made. This experiment was started on Market street from the ferries to Tenth street on Sunday, and so far it has proved & success, so the advocates of the system believe. A startin this direction would have been made long 8go by the associa- tion but for the desire on the part of a number of members not to interfere with the private entervrise of several ingivid- nals. who own and run sprinkling carts and who protested that to do so would ruin their business. However, it was de- cided tnat the welfare of the masses was of more importauce than the interests of the few. For along time past the Harbor Com- missioners have been using salt water for srnnklmg East street, and where befors clouds of dust were flyinyg ail duy, now the front is comparatively free from thatan- noyance. - The. cost has not been. very great.. The same may be said of Alameda, where salt water sprinkling has been in operation for a long time. In discussing tuis matter Secretary Freud stated that he believes that this City will have to come to sprinkling the streets with water from the ocean before long. Fresh water does not fill the requirements and as a result-the Uity is frequentiy enveloped in - clouds -of flying dust. Every year the City pays out thousands: of dollars for fresh water to moisten the atreets and in & few. years at the present rate the ' City could (] enough money to own its own salt-waier pumping piant. Furthermore, the ‘damage to goods in stores from flying cCust ‘woutd in a few years more than equalize the outlay for the cost of ‘a pumping plant.. Many home-seekers, - Mr. Freud ‘says, -wounld locate in Ban' Francisco :but for the. duss nuisance, Yesterday the: streets around the City Hall ‘were sprinkled with sait water, as well as down Eiglith street between Mar- ket and Mission.. Thisexperiment will be carried on during the present week.. ‘Lhe association’s superintendent, L. M. King, &uenihusiasuc advocate of salt-waier sprinkling. He has given the matter much stuay, and he gives the following reasons for advocating 1is continuance: 1t binds the dirt together between the pay- ing-stones, 8o tuat when dry there is no loose dirt to be raised by ihe wind; 1t does not dry 80 quiCkly as Iresu walcr, and itis claimed by those cities wnich use'sall waler thut one load of sali waler is equal to three of fresh water. The correctness of this claim is now being studied iz the experiments made. The salt wh ich is deposited on_the street ab- sorbs moisture from the air during the night, 80 Lhat during the early morning the sireet. is thoroughly moist and has the a pearance of having been freshly sprinkled. This efect: ally prevenis dust being raised by the wind or streetsweepcrs before tne regular sprinkling carts. can get over the ground during the MOTuilg, AT ' thus evercome one of our great- est nuisance: It is more nealthful than fresh water, for the reason that salt water will de- stroy many disease germs now coltained in the dirton our sireets. These advantages are- particularly ‘notice able on Market street, .beiween Jones and Fell, where this experiment is-now . being made, . The north side and center of the street Détween -the tracke are- being sprinkled with salt.water, while the south side of the sireet is sprinkled with fresh water: “Along the. north slde and-center. the dirt is compactly bound together, is_always moist between the stones, 80 that there is never dustraised there, and during the early raing that portion appears as though freshly sprinkled. : lie' business ‘men along that portion of the street should observe aid compare the &ppear- | ance of the two sides of.thi LR e el g i ‘W aiters’ Orguniz About: seveniy-five h and Testaurant | waiters -met Tuesday night.and organized the Waitérs” Union of the City.and Countyof San | Francisco.” The objéct- of the ofganization is | to improve the condition of the fraternity and not to create ‘discord and strite with the em- ployers. adopted.

The Handwriting Expert Expounds on the. Mysteries of His Pro- : - _fession. Daniel T. Ames, the Philadeiphia hand- writing expert now sojourning in - this City, delivered a lecture on Monday at the Academy of Sciences, treating of the mysteries of his profession. Nearly all of the local experts—Gumpel, Kyika, Eisenschimel and the rest.of them —were there, and all in search of knowl- edge. So also were a number of attorneys, who have been or are interested in litiga- tion in which disputed handwriting is the theme, to say nothing of budding lawyers whe hove to have something of that kind on their hands some time in the future. Asheis whenonthe witness-stand Ames was in this lecturé extremely profound. S0 much so in fact that mnot ail of hiy hearers knew just what hé was getting at. He staried in with the alphabet that the chiid learns at school. Here, he said, character and personality did not have an opportunity !0 enter into the writing, for they all learned alike and from the same models. But, he argued, it was different ip after years, when the person gets away from his or her tutors and permits writing as a habit to grow upon. him. ' The char- acteristics.of his penmanship then become a r,nn of himself and he cannot help him- selt. *“We cannot lay aside in a day onr hand- writing of a lifetime and acquire another,” said the lecturer, ‘‘unl/ess we go back to where we began, and [earn all ‘over again. And 1 have serious doabts if it could be done even then. When we experts are asked to detect a simulated handwriting the first thing we do is to look for some personality interjected into the writing that belongs to the hand of the simulator, and not to the hand thathewould simulate. It is something thatis bound to slip in, no matter how careful and exjert the imitator may be. Natural writing has a peculiar grace and flow that nobody - can reproduce by drawing or tracing. In fact, handwriting cannot be “imitated success- fully. My experience isthat the drawing ar'tracing can be ‘detected as_quickly as black can from ~wuite, - Handwriting becomes a habit that is as difficult to get rid ‘of as that of opium or drink.” — .
