Patch Takes the Diamond Medal, but May Not Hold It Very Long. All Passengers on the China Vacei- nated—The “ Festive Roosters' " Last Cruise. The Dolphin Boat Club seems to be | meeting with hard iuck here lately so far as its races are concerncd. Last week the water was too rough for it to hold the second of the series of outrigger skiff races which are to determine who is to be the possessor of the club medal, and yes- terday the water was so boisterous that when an attempt was made to race Alex Pape, who won the first race, re- ceived an icy bath by his skiff being swamped. At 11 o’clock, the hour scheduled for the race, Powell-street wharl was crowded with many sightseers, gatbered in antici- pation of the sport to come. There were | only two contestants—Pape and W. O. Patch. The courselay from Black Point to Powell-street wharf and return. Two stakeboats had been stationed at the latier point jor the men to round and start back. Pape was just off Meiggs whart and about 100 feet’in the lead when he encountered a heavy swell and the bow of his boat went under. Thomas Haydon and James Black, porters for the Merchants’ Exchange, w: nessed the accident and, hastily lowering a boat, went to Pape's assistance. Heand his skiff were brought to shore, lictle the worse for the unlucky mishap. Although an agreement had been made on the Sunday previous that in case either of the boats swamped, owing to the rcugh- ness of the water, the race was to be called off, Patch kept on, rounded the stake-boat and returned to the point of starting. He then claimed the diamond medal and it was handed to him by Pape without any demurring. This action on the part of Patch has not added to his reputation in tue least, for it iscommonly supposed that | When a race is held the best man is de- serving of the tropny, and if Pape had not | swamped there can be no doubt in the mind of any reasoning man that he would have beaten Patch easily. Pape will get a silver medal now for winning the first of the series, and in case | he wins two more the diamond medal | will have to be surrendered by Pateh. In | fact, if he wins tue next race the diamond medal will really gointo his possession, and Patch will also be given a silver medal for yesterday's performance. One of the prettiest sights seen along | the iront for many a was witnessed yesterday afternoon when the League of the Cross cadets came over from Tiburon, en routs home from Camp Riordan, at Petaluma, They were led by their band, resplendent in crimson uniforms, and as they marched up the street from the ferry, the swords of the oflicers gleaming in the sun, large numbers of people, the small boy taking no part, collected and followed the youthful soldiers up town. Chisf Lees narrowly avoided meeting ie was in the vicinity of Lombard-street wharf in a buggy, and as he passed out the gate the hub of the buzgy wheel | caught on the edge of a postand one of the traces of the harness was broken. The forward, but Policemen Crosby and Henneberry, who happened to be at hand, grasped the bridle in time to prevent a runaway. The stern-wheeler, H. C. Grady, on her way here from Portland 1o p!y on tne Sacramento River, was sighted Saturday evening by the steam-schooner Laguna | about twenty miles north of Point Arena. She was traveling slowly, and is expected here about 10 o’ clock this morning. Baron Foy, who arrived on the steamer China in a very sick condition, was able to walk around yesterday. His troubie has been diagnosed by Dr. Rosenau as malaria. All the passengers on the China were vaccinated. The law requires that all steerage passengers be vaccinated, but the Federal quarantine authorities do not intend to take any risks whatever in the cases of persons coming irom infected ports. 2 On Augnst 8 the Ariels will give a re- gatta in which Ochs and Bulger of that club and Pape and Patch of the Dolphin Ciub will row a special match for a trophy to be given by the Ariels. The Festive Roosters’ Yachting Club gave its fourth and last cruise in the yacht White Wings yesterday. A long pro- gramme had been prepsred, and the poet | o1 the occasion got in his deaaly work to perfection. The “Roost’’—it might be well to chronicle for the enlightenment of the lay mind—is the Palace Hotel. The offi- cers of the organization, as given in the Beardsley handbills scattered to the four winds of heaven, were as follows: Our Commeedore—In the throes of nautical Qsssolution ; he gasps; “Farewell, a long farewell, to ail my greatness” (Does he mean fatness?), Tom Atkinson.

The Concern Is Perfectly Solvent and Will Continue in Busi- ness as Usual. In order to facilitate the settlement of the affairs of the firm of J. J. O’Brien & Co., the assets of the concern have been assigned to the principal local creditors, who are arranging matters so the big Market-street store can continue in b ness as usual. The doors will not be closed at any time and ‘the name of the concern will remain unchanged. James O'Brien assumed charge of the business after the death of his brother, but found it impossible to handle so large a concern in cenjunction with his own business, and it was at his suggestion that the creditors were called in and asked to take charge of the matter and arrange to have the stores continue. their career of prosperity. The heaviest creditors are Murphy, Grant & Co. and Levi Strauss & Co., the aggregate indebtedness to these two firms being in the neizhborhood of $120,000. 1 he assignment was arranged by Adam Grant of Murphy, Grant & Co., Michael Mullany of Mullany, Grant & Co., attor- neys for Mrs. J. J. O’Brien, and James O'Brien, and the whole business was set- tled in the most amicable manner. Both Mr. Mullany and Mr. Grant state that the concern is perfectly solvent and thatthere will be no ditliculty in placing it in first- class shape. PATCHED UP HER DOLL. Edna C. Newman, a Pretty Little Miss, Astonighes the Doctors at the Receiving Hospital. “'Please, lady,” said a bright-eyed littie miss to Matron Kane at the Receiving Hospital yesterday morning, *“is this tne place where folks are patched up?’ She held in her arms a doll, neatly dressed, and on the matron answering her in the affirmative and asking her what she wanted she replied that her doll had lost its right foot and she wanted it patched up. She had the foot in her hand and showed it to the matron. To humor the little tot Mrs. Kane called Dr. Fitzgibbon and Steward Bucher and they placed the doll on the operating- table, ana the doctor sewed on the broken foot, while the steward put the finiching touches on the operation by plastering and bandaging up the fracture. All the time the operation was going on the little tot held the doll’s hand and talked soothingly to it, and when the steward told her it was all over she kis-ed the doll and politely thanked him for his kindness. She said tne doll was 5years old on Angust 6, and she was very much attached to it. She said the doll’s name was Isabelle and her own name was Edna C. Newman, and that she lived at 1231 Market street. She will be 9 years of age on her next birthday. e e e BACK FROM OCAMP. Two Companies of Guardsmen Return From Santa Cruz. Companies A and F and the band of the Second Battalion, Fifth Infantry, N. G. C,, under command of Major John F. Hayes, returned from their eight days’ camp at Santa Cruz, rather dusty and sunburned, but none the worse for their camp expe- rience. The men are unanimous in saying that it was the best camp ever bheld, the mili~ tary discipline being the feature. Some forty men of the regiment were “run in'" owing to the striciness of orders and the efficient work of the men on gnard, Captain Carrington speaks very favor- ably of the camp and discipline, but would make no official statement. Both Captain Carrington and Colonel Fairbanks highly praised Company F. It was a model company, being prompt in action and maintaining an excellent car- riage and a perfect line. Company F is the trophy company of the regiment, owing to the fact that it scored the hizhest number of points at target practice. Its mandolin and glee club were quite an attraction at the camp. Company A, as usual, wasat the head of the line with its comic-opera songs and fake shows, The company boasts of several “Buffalo Billy,” and can produce anything seen in- side of a dime museum. Foriun and a jolly good time Couipany C will pass muster. The officers commanding Compary A were: Captain, Poulter; first lieutenant, 5. D. Hunt; second lieutenant, J.

OTORY FOR SANTA GRU The “Beachcombers” Ad- minister Another Defeat to the “ Tigers.” Delegations From Fresno and Santa Cruz Cheer Their Teams to Victory. Nearly Five Thousand People Wit- ness an Exciting Game—Other Games Santa Cruz's crack team repeated their perfcrmance of Saturday by again defeat- ing the Fresno Republicans yesterday in a hotly contested game. From start to finish the play was rapid and at 1imes brilliant, and received the merited applause of the thousands that at- tended. A large crowd of enthusiasts from Fresno and Santa Cruz were seated in sections of the grandstand, and their presence went a great way in encourag- ing their respeciive teams. The game opened with Santa Cruz at bat. Wilhams tlew out to first and Arellanes struck out. As Devereux stepped to the plate ajbeautiful bouquet from some feminine admirer was handed to him, and be blushed becomingly. The floral tribute did not prove a talise man, as he went out on a liner to first. Fresno scored its only run in its own half of this inning. Gilbert led off with a long fly to left, which was neatly captured by ‘‘Monky” Burge. Brittan was hit by the pitcher, and Chance hit to the left field fence for two bases. Burge recovered the ball and threw high to second to catch the runner, and Gilbert scored, Chance going to third. Balz sent a grounder to short, and on Wiliams’ fumble Chance came home. The next two men wentoutin short order. In the second Santa Cruz scored. Streib bunted to short, and was safe on Mc- Cartoy’'s wide throw. E. Daubenbis gained his base on Brittan’s error, ana Burge struck out, much to his disgust and to the surprise of his friends, as ‘‘Monky’’ has a great batting eye. C. Daubenbis singled over short, filling the bases. McGrath hit a slow ball to McCarthy, who threw to third, shatting E. Dauben- pis out and Streib scored. Balz steadied himself and retired the side by striking Rash out. The Fresnos could not connect with Daubenbi-’ curves in this inning and were quickly retired. 1n the third Williams was saie on single to right_and Arellanes hit in the same ace. Devereux flew out to short and Streib hit to Balz, who threw to third, and Brittan aropped the ball just as he was stepping away from the bag. Umpire Long decided the runner was saie, and his decision caused greatdissatisfaction. With three on base, Daubenbis hit in front of the plate and Williams was thrown out at home. Burge ended his team’s cnance of scoring by going out on a fly to right-field. The only interesting feature of the first half of the fourth was Arellanes’ spectacu- lar catch of Gilbert’s liner. The batter sent the ball over Areliénes’ head and he made a_jump, stopping its flight, and as it bounded out of his hands he cluiched it again and the batter was out. The Santa Cruz team tied the score in the next inning. C. Daubenbis went to first by being hit by pitcher. McGrath sent a slow grounder to second and beat the ball to first. Nash fouled out. Wil- liams hit to pitcher and Balz fumbled, al- lowing him to reach his base, and again tilling the bags. Arellanes fouled and the ball struck Chance in the stomach, knocking him out for ten minutes, when he pluckily contin- ed the game. Arellanes hit to second, who threw quickly home, sbuiting out C. Danbenbis. Devereux batted a swilt grounder to Gil- bert and was safe on the fumble, McGrath scoring. Streib weat out 1o short, ending the inning. The Fresnos were unabie to score during the remainder of the game, although they had men n bases. This was due io the great fielding of the Santa Cruz team. The latter team adaded another run in the next inning and two more in the fifth, giving them a winning lead. Fresno’s defeat was due to the clever all around playing and batting of their opponents. The pitching of Daubenbis was excel- lent amP he deserves great credit for win- ning both games. Balz's work in the box was also of high order. The following s the score: FRi8NO. AB. R BH SB. PO.

Six Hundred Dollars Would Have Been His Had Dixon Won. D. J. Lynch Leaves To-Night to Post a Final Deposit for the Sharkey- Maher Battle. D. J. Lynch, friend and backer of Tom Sharkey, leaves to-nignt for New York, where on August 2 at 2 P. M. he must de- posit his second $2500 forfeit money for his man to meet Peter Maher. “‘The battle will take place before No- vember 2,”” said Lynch last evening, “but 1 have no idea where or before what club. The institution or individual offering the biggest purse and a guarantee that the contest will be to a finish will get the fight. “Sharkey is away on a visit to his old Irish home, but will be back by the 20th of Augusy, in plenty of time to get into condition, for heis always in fairly good shape.” There is a story going the rounds which goes to show that there are still some good, square sports left. Itis to this ef- fect: When Jack Welch was called upon to referee the recent Dixon-Hawkins bat- tle he refused to go on. His friendsand the friends of the wwo principals would nov accept his refusal, and actually forced him into accepting that most important position of referee. The decision—a draw—given by Welch has since been acknowledged by all to ke proper and square; but that was_only to be expected from such a man as Welch is gnown to be. However, it transpires now that Welch's refusal to referee the battle was on accountof several wagers, amount- ing to $600, which he had made on the col- ored lad. The fight was such a close one that Welch might not have been cried down had he given the decision in Dixon’s favor and earned $60Q for himself, but he did not and he has buiit a monument to himself that wiil weigh heavily on the ashes of certain notorious referees. Jack Everharat and *‘Spider’’ Kelly are the next two pugs to meet on August 4 under the management of Alf Elling- house. The preliminaries will be between Frank Purcell and Jack Weedy, fifteen rounds, and Charles Reno and £d Ander- son, ten rounds. The latter is a pew-comer from San Pedro and in his “work-out’’ trials he has shown speed and strength enough to make him a dangerous opponent. IN SOLEHN ADORATION. A TForty-Hours’ Devotion in Progress at St. Mary's, Paulist, Impressive Splendor Attends the Procession of the Blessed Sacrament. A forty hours’ adoration began at 11 o’clock yesterday morning at St. Mary’s Church (Paulist Fathers) on California street. At that hour solemn high mass was celebrated by Rev. Father Gibslin, celebrant; Rev. Father Powers, deacon; Rev. Father Doherty, sub-deacon, and Rev. Father Clark, master of ceremonies. The altar had been richly decorated with brakes, palms and-white roses and lilies. The church could scarcely accommodate the crowds which thronged it to witness the impressive ceremonies. The procession of the blessed sacrament, which followed the mass, was attended with great solemnity. The celebrant, having donned his vestments and burned mcense before the blessed sacrament, ad- vanced with it to the gate of the sanctuary where he was met by a procession of goung girls clad in white, and sanctuary o{s, strewing garlands in the aisles. Solemnly the procession moved through the church to the strains of the hymn of the blessed sacrament, “Pangua Lingua.” Returning to the altar the sacrament ‘was placed upon the canopied throne by the deacon, the Jitany was solemnly sung and the prayer toned by the celebrant. Rev. Father Powers preached the ser- mon in the moruing, choosin: his text from the epistie of the day, ** The Son of God, Life Iiiernal, in Christ Jesus Our Lord.” In the course of his sermon Father Powers said: We all regard life as the most precious of God’s glits; we cling to it with great tenacity, and few even of those who are most wretcned wish to part with life. We rejoice too in those things which make for the fuliness of life— nealth and strengih for instance. Bat if we regard our merely physical life as 1 80 precious a treasure that we would Iain keep 1t, how should we regard that spiritual life which has its beginning in Goa’s grace aud finds its completion in God’s glore+ As St Paui teaches us, the grace of God is life everlasting in Jesus Christ; he is the meritorious cause of grace and of giory. Through him we receive sglfllunl life, which is sanctifying grace. All his sacraments are the channels of grace. But the holy eucharist is that sacrament which especialiy teaches us of the love of our blessed Lord for us, because in it we receive Lis very self, whois the author and the fuliness of ell grace. We receive him into our hearts, we are united to him in love and we share in that divine participation. And so, beloved brethren, when to-dey we begin the season of more especial adoration of the blessed sacrament, let me ask you to con- sider well the greatlove our lord bestows upon you througa this wonderful holy sacrament. Let me ask you to come and see how sweet is hispresence; let me ask you to turn aside, 1f but for a little while, to linger at_the teet of oxne who will be your everlasting joy. In the evening solemn vespers wersa sung. Father Clark preached tue sermon and the benediction of the biessed sacra- ment was pronounced. This morning at 9 o’clock a mass for peace will be sung, and in the evening at 7:45 there will be a sermon and the Lene- diction of the sacréd sacrament. The mass of reposition to-morrow morning at 9 o’clock will conciude the devotions. e ———— Dangers Threatening Soclety. W. J. Walters, managing editor of the Mer- cury, the organ of the Theosophical Society, delivercd an address last night at Native Sons’ Hall on the subject, “The Dangers That Toreaten Society.” One of these dangers, he said, Is the divorce of seience from religion; but the chief evils dwelt upon were those in the nature of reckless competition as opposea to co-operation. He said ia part: “If we study the society of bees we find every working bee co-operating on the common storing of the hive.
