HOODWINKED ~ THE CONSTABLES. Battle Was De Be nd Richard Tiernan, a boxmaker, and Wil- liam Toy, a blacksmith, fought twenty- three gory rounds with bare knuckles in a | secluded spot on the line between San | ncisco and San Mateo counties yester- day afternoon in the presence of a select crowd of sports wio had been given the tip to be on hand and see a hot battle. Tiernan and Toy have long been rivals for distinction in the practice of the manly art, and several weeks ago met at Coima | su and fought a short battle without being | satisfied as to which was the better man. | They agreed to meet again yesterday at Colma, but the presence of a burly con- stable from San Mateo County scared the crowd, and afier waiting several hours for | him to depart the party began to despair | of being able to 1 off the mill. Then a brightidea struck Tom Barry, the | veteran pugzilist who was acting as general manager of the affair. Hastily hunting up an old resident of the distrct who was | familiar with county lines, he made a hurried trip into the property of the Spring Valley Wate mpany near Lake | Merced and located a level spot where the fight could take pla. The line ran di- rectly through the ground so that if inter- fered with in onecounty the fighters could carry on their argument in the other. The crowd was summoned and at 3:30 o'clock the men stripped and prepared for battle. No ropes or stakes were available, 80 the crowd formed a circle about the bit of ground that had been cleared of shrub- bery. Tom Barry was chosen referee and ex-Senator Billy Dunn astimekeep-r. n were Ben Heary of the Club, William Bebind Ban Fran Fianagan and Wi William Toy was by Jack Whelan, Edward Mc( flrmuk and Jack McAuley, the puxilist. Tiernan was taller and heavier than his | opponent, but he iacked Toy’s fine con- dition and was slow-r than a carthorse. He weighed about 185 pounds to bis oppo- nent’s 165. At the call of time Tiernan rushed his opponent, but was met with & terrific left swing that laid open his right eyebrow so that the blood flowed down over his face | ir. a torrent. It was the most damaging blow struck in the mill, which was lively for several rounde. Tiernan was evidently a novice, though | game to the core, and he swung wildly with his right, while Toy pluggzed steadily away with his left, landing as he pleased and cutiing his antagonist at every blow. | Tue battle waged fi-rcely for four rounds, and then, as tue sand grew more cut up and locomotion more difiicult, the pugil- ists tired and fought more cautiously. Thus it went for twenty rounds, Tier- nan’s face being puffed up at the end of | that period so that one eye was clossa and | his lips swelled to twice their natural size. Toward the end of the battle Tiernan saw that bis awkward reachesat his op- ponent with his left were of no avail and he beganto swing beavily with his right at Toy’s ribs. The blows told, every rap | leaving an angry red mark, but the box- maker was too slow on his feet to foilow his advantacze, and at the end of the twenty-third round Referee Barry de- clared the fight a draw and instructed the men to be readv to meet agair in two | weeks to settle the guestion of supremacy. Tiernan’s face was a fearful sight when the battle was over, being raw in several | places and so puffed and red as to make nim unrecognizable. Outside of his sore ribs the worst injury sustained by Toy was to his right hand, the middle finger being badly cut by coming into contact with Tiernan’s teeth. PONY MOORE TALKS FIGHT | Charlie Mitchell’s Father-in-Law Here to Have Him Deet Peter Jackson. At the Baldwin Hotel, just arrived here from London, is the well-preserved 72- vear-old sport George Washington Moore, better known as “Pony” Moore, tlhe father-in-law of Charlie Mitchell, the prize-fighter. From what be says and from what he will not say it is probable that the veper- | able backer and hanaler oi pugilists has | come to San Franci«co to promote 1 meet- ing of Mitcheli and Peter Jackson. When seen last night he said : “L ain’t saving what I'm here for. That ain’t business. Let it go that I'm just in town for pleasure. “Mr. Mitchell will be out here in three | weeks. He'sin as good condition as he | ever was in his life. When bhe gets here that’ll be time to say what he’s going to | do. He's 36 years old and able to look out | for hisseif. “Peter Jackson said something to me to-night that he wouldn’t say if Mitchell was here. He had considerable aboord at the time. He called Mitchell a ‘cur,” and he said I was no friend of his. “I may be a friend of Juckson's, and I | may not be. And I may be here for his interests. ° ~1 challenged Jackson forty times in London for Mitchell, but be wouldn’t fight in any club but the one that Mitchell had had a row with and they wouldn’t Jet him fight in. He offered to fight there any time that the club would let him, or anywhere else. “‘He’d fight Jackson here to-night. He'il fight him anywhere. “What chance would Jackson have with Fitzsimmons? About as much show as [ would. What chance would he have with Corbett? Same chance I would. That's my opinion of Jackson’s preseat ability. Of course I am entitled to my opinion. ““There was a story in a New York paper | and telegraphed here that I was terrivly | mauled in a drunken row in a barroom there. That's a —— lie, and bhere’'s a signed siatement from Frank J. Bang, proprietor of the Sturtevant House, show- ing that I was miles away wl en the wupl took place in his parroom.” | count of w | I and evidence offered swer and evide co Iu spite of the fact that yesterday was Sunday there was a great deal of discus- | sion over the suit of Dr. C. C. O'Donneil against the Board of KEdlucation, an ac- h was printed in THE CaLL exclusively yesterda: As stated in that article the suit will be led in the Superior Court to-day, and | | there is a probability that Atiorney Wall wili also file his suit. It 1s said that he has decided to file a criminal as well as a civil suit, and that the actions will both be prosecuted vigorously, in spite of the fact that Dr. O'Donnell says be is the only one whose suit will be prosecuted to a finish. “I have been approached by an intimate frisnd,” said the doctor yesterday, ‘‘and asged whether I cannot be induced to stop the suit. My friend is close to some of the Directors, and he says there are | those of the board who feel the matter keenly. 1 sent word that they might as 1 ¢ to blow away a brick house with 1and-bellows as to get me tostop. I shall fight the matter to the end.” Attorney Baggett, who 1s of counsel for | Dr. O'Donnell, was seen relative to the | He said: *‘lam sobusy | Supervisors’ case that I have given very little atiention to the school- board matter, leaving that to my associ- ate<. 1am ot the opinion, however, that there is a strong case against tke board, i the evidence of their conduct is as it is re- ported to me. We shall soon go at the se vigorously, as our instructions from . O’Donnell are to push the matter as rapidiy as possible.”” Section 772 of the Penal Code is likely to figure conspicuously in the schooi- board case before the matter is finally set- tled, as that is Attorney Wail’s long suit. 1f he proceeds with his case it i~ likely that be will depend largely on the mal law. The provision is as follows: Section 772, Pemal Code-- When an ace ing, verified by officer within the jurisdi of the court as been guil etc., etc., * * or has refused or meglected to official du office, perform the ies pertaining to his charged to appear, etc., st proceed to hear, im a mary way, the accusation sup- me, and the an- e offered by ty accused:; and if, on and "t of the the p such hearing, it appears that | the charge is stained, the rt must enter a decree that the riy accused be deprived of his oflice and must enter a Jjudzment for £500 in favor of the informer, and such costs as are allowed in civi cases. Members of the Board of Education say they have no fear ot the suit of Dr. O’Don- nell or Attorney Wall. Speaking of the case Dr. Ragan, one of the more bellig- erent of toe board, said: “‘The trath is we went into the school book question with the best intentions of obeying the law. Tney claim that we have violated the law by changing books oftener than every four yvears, as the law prescrib's. Now. the fact is that the adoption of a book that has never been used before is not a change of text books. There is not a sin- gle instance where we have changed a book. We proceeded as we did backed by the opinion of the Superintendent of Pub- lic Schoois of the State. We have no fear on this score. Of course, we shall be obliged to go into court and fight the case if it comes to an issue, and we are ready to muke a strong snOwing When the proper time come: il WILL GET GLADYS? | Miss Wallace May Leave the Frawley Company for Comic Opera, Mrs, Kreling Has a Written Contract and Frawley Says He Has One of Words. 1t is likely that the word and the signa- ture of Miss Gladys Wallace of the Fraw- ley Company will cause her trouble. Mrs. Ernestine Kreling of the Tivoli claims sne has a cont ract whereby Miss Wallace wiil become the leading soubrette of the Eidy-street opera-house for one year. The comic opera season will open at the Tivoli ihree weeks from to-night with “Thz Geisha,” and Miss Wallace was to make her debut to the theater-going people of this city in opera. When Mr. Frawley heard that a con- tract had been signed whereby he was to lose one of his company he was ex- tremely wrought up, as his season does not close until May 1 of next year. He claims that Miss Wallace signed the con- trace with Mrs. Kreling, if sign she did, | under a misapprehension, as she had & verbal contract with him to remain the balance of the season with his company. George Lask, stage manager of the Tivoli, when asked regarding Miss Wal- lace’s contract with Mr. Frawley, said: “A.] I know 1s that Miss Wallace signed a contract with the Tivoli management for a year's engagement, to commencs in three weecks, and as I have not been aa- vised to the contrary I suppose that she will appear the first night in ‘The | Geisha.’ " — - e Injured by Streetcars. Benjemin Witham, an old man aged 70 years, residing at 17 Houston street, was knocked down and severely injured by an eastbound Sacramento-street cable-car, At the crossing of Dupont and Sacramento streets, yesterday evening. At the Receiving Hospital his in- juries were found o consist of_an abrasion on the forchead and chin, besides a contused wound on the riziit hip and probably serious iaternal injuries. Thomas Wiiliems of 924 Filbert street had the toes of bis rignt foot nipped by the wheels of a Fiith-street horsecar yesierdny afternoon, The Toy-Balloon Ball Respon- sible for the Visitors’ Defeat. THE “CALE'S” WOIK APPRECIATED. Players Say an Increase in the Per- centage Iz Due to Its Efforts. Milton Besse, the Sheriff of Santa Cruz, appeared as manager of the Santa Cruz nine which played the Will & Fincks in the yellow journal’s tournament ai Cen- tral Park yesterday afternoon. Sheritf Besse canie up from the sea to see that the ball-tossers gota square deal. He took active charge of the box-office, counted the tickets and looked after tne money. Sheriff Besse is not the manager of the team. “We brought Besse along with us,” said one of the nine, *to protect our rights and look after the box-office. He is onto all | the curves (the in and outshoots) of the yeliow management, and with him in the box we knew that we would get what rightfully belonged to us.”’ Snher:ff Besse kept a close watch of every- thing tnat went on in the box-office. He was so occupied that he had little time to watch the splendid game put by his men. Once during the progress of the play he appeared on the bench, but 1t was only for a short time. That box-office was what the Sheriff was after and hesiayed with it, There was a verceptible falling off in the attendance as compared with previous Sundays. The box-office returns showed that only 2330 tickets were sold. The grand-stand was svarsely filied. Toe competing teams played for 30 per cent of the gross receints, 15 per cent ior each nine. This increase was entirely owing to the fisht THE CALL has been making in behalf of the players for a re- muneration approaching a just distribu- tion of the receipts, After the game Mr, Besse stated that hereafter the Santa Cruz nine would re- ceive 20 per cent of the gross receipts. Even tnisis a small figure, for the splen- d:d personnel of the ninesis responsible for the popularity of the zame. Fight promoters give from 50 to 75 per cent of the gross receipts to the pugilists, and the National Club offered 80 per cent of the gross receipts for the Lavigne-Walcott twenty-round go. Fight protaoters are at much greater expense in putting on a battle than is tne yellow journal's base- ball management in arranging for a game. It costs from $1200 to $1500 for a fight be- tore a ticket is soid. “Tur Cary,” said C. J. Wilson, of Santa Cruz, “*has made a great fight for the ball players and we all appreciate its admir- able work. Tswenty per cent is a small sum, in my opinion, for the players to re- | ceive, but itis much better than 10 per cent. It will be hard, however, for THE CALL to make the management produce an itemized balance sheet showing what disposition has been made of the large amounts taken in. All the players in the seven clubs are anxious to see that itemized balancs sheet. It would reveal an interesting story and would be far more_entertaining than the exploits of Poet Miller in crossing the Chilcoot Pass or taking the gold cure in Dawson.” Thae great disadvantage of piaying the game with a dead and cheap ball was strikingly illustrated yesterday. Had the regulation ball been used Santa Cruz would have won. Strieb, the left fielder for the visitors, struck the ball square on the nose three times. Had the ball been a live one all the hits wouid have been three-baggers if not home-runs. As it was the ball in each case was pulled down by fisiders. The regulation ball is the only ball with which to play the game. In Recreation Park the regulation ball will be used and the patrons of the game will see some great stick work. The imposi- tion of atoy-balloon ball on the publicis afarce. The yellow management should make another innovation, substituting for thedead ball a bean bag. SHOT IN A SALOON, James E. Flynn, a Bookbinder, Ar- rested on a Charge of Assault to Murder. James E. Flynn, a bookbinder, 29 years of age, was arrested yesterday morning by Policeman P. B. Chambers and booked at the City Prison on a charge of assault to commit murder. Snortly after 2 o’clock yesterday morn- ing tour men entered the Fourth-street Exchange saloon, 11 Fourth street, appar- ently looking for trouble. They knocked Peter Kenny, & cripple, off a chair on which he was sitting and struck a man named Charles Garland. Harry Hume, 130 Fourth street, jumped in to save the cripple from further punish- ment and he was knocked down by 2 blow on the head from the buit end ot are- volver. The four men piled on top of him, but he managed to struggle to his feet, and as he went after the man who struck the cripple he was shot in the left shoul- der. There was an immediate stampede from the saloon. Hume was taken to the Receiving Hos- pital, where Dr. Howard found that the bullet had entered the shoulder, passed downward and come out of the arm above the elbow. Hume gave the nameoi Jones at the hospital. J. M. Williams, the proprietor of the sa- loon, gave informatior to the police that led to the arrest of Flynn as ke shooter. MAY BE MURDER. Isidore Gaulet, the Victim of a Footpad, ina Dying Condition. Isidore Gaulet. the old man who was knocked down and robbed at the en- trance to his residence, 1511 Golden Gate avenue, Friday night, is in a dying condi- tion. He became unconscious last night and Drs. Keeney and Shumate held a consult: tion. They decided to perform an opera- 1ion on the fractured skull in the almost forlorn hope of saving his life if he does not die during the night. The volice are redoubling their efforts to capture the murderous footpad, but as yet without success. He is known and his capture is only a question of time. 9, F. Bird Shoot. ““Are you going to the inaucural cele- bration of the Olympic Gun Club’s duck- shooting preserve on the Sonoma marshes to-morrow?” asked A. A. Borlini of H. Hosmer last Saturday evening at a favor- ite sporting re-ort on Markst and Second streets. Hosmer paused for a moment, as if in doubt, and then, in bis quiet yet pleasant way, answered, “Well, I guess. How do you supnose the club would get along without Hosm r and Brigas? Are we not the people who carry pepper in our pock- ets on all occasions of this kind? 'Nuff said.”” The Olympic Gun Club inaucurated the opening of ils preserve on the Sonoma marshes, a few miles north of Black Point, yesterday with a final live-bird pigeon shoot of the season and a general gcod time among its members and invited guests. The coast steamer Caroline was char- tered, and promptly at 7:3 o’clock yester- day morning it tooted three whistles, the signal for departure, and tue passengers, numbering 100 good follows, sailed away from Jackson-street wharf for the happy hunting grounds of Sonoma County. On the journey up the river the guy young fellows whiled away the weary hours on water shooting at the birds of passage with shot guns and rifles, and many an unfortunate “wnitewing” paid the penalty of being too close an observer by the sacrifice of nis life. Among the pathering there were at least a dozen first-class singers, who as- sisted very materially to enliven the oc- cision witu songs that were unquestion- ably :n place. Julius Bruns’ favorite melody entitled “A Nightin the Sons of Rest” was en- cored :everal times; Jabez Swan sang some of his choice selections, which, al- though somewhat fishy, were also well received. A. A. Borlini, the well-known basso, was calied upon several times to repeat the sweet songs he sung, which, needless to say, canght the ear and heart of many alover of vocal music. In fact the trip up the river was en- joved immensely, and as the steamer | reached within seeing distance of the duck-shooting swamps, Otto Feudner, the crack shot, was the nirst to observe a flock of 97 mailards flying over the ponds of the preserve, anu his cry of “Listen to the music of the quackers!” drew tue atten- tion of ore anu all to the band of broad- biils that all on board would only be too pleased to have an opportunity of pourine a broadside into. The happy hunting-grounds were found at 11:30 o’clock, and after a’hearty luncn- eon, live-bird shooting commenced. The members of the club fought out the final event of the season on the sontu side of the tented ground, while the cracka- jacks who were not affiliated with any par- ticular club enjoyed themseives on a special plot set apart for them by Commi sioner William Murdock on the north side. The Olympic Gun Club shoot which was the final of the season resulted as follows: Race of twelve birds—Otto l"audner 10, Stade 12, Neustadter 12, E. A. Schultz 9, C. H. Snaw 8, F. J. Schultz ll A. Ross \( E. Lvnger 7, H. Wagner 11, Dr. Sloan 8 J. Goicher 12 H. C. Golcher 11, A. Hanghz 10, L. D.Owens 11, W. H Will.ams Maskey 12, H. Vernon 9, C. Nauman 11, “Edwaras” 9. As there was a tie to be shot off be- tween W. J. Golcher and Clarence Haight for the first-ciass medal, Golcher won the handsome prizs by one bird. But the sport of the day was at what was termed the outsiders’ ground. Messrs. Brown, Wand and Taylor were not in shooting trim, so to speak, conse- quently their scores were not up to the usual average, but then they shot well considering the strong wind that was blowing across the traps. Results: Six-bird race—Geary 3, Wana 1, Hibbard 4. Mahon 5, Hibbard 4, Crowell 6. , Jockers 4, Lane 5, Bor- McMahon 5 vclve birds—Bekart 8, Crowell 9, Franzen 10, Brigzs 8, Hosmer 9. Tweive birds—Claybrough 7, Sands 10, Swan 11, Holling 9. Twelve virds—Donzel 9, Hosmer 7, Briggs 6, Wagner 6, Sans 9. President Merton C. Allen states that during t:e hunting season members can take the steamer Gold, which will leave this city every afternoon at 3 r. M., and if the sport:men are desirous of ra\ummg on the traiu the club’s launch will convey passengers on Sunday afternoon to Black Point station, which is in close proximity of the club’s headquarters. The preserve, it is said, includes 10,000 acres of duck-shooting lands. The open- ing day of the season will be next Friday. The members and invited guests who were present at the inauguration yester- day were: L. D. Owens, C. Haight, A. A. Borlini, C. F. Grant, H. Hosmer, A. Roos. Dr. Vowinckle, Dr. s nowies, Dr. C. W.

Healy of Susanville died at 9 o’clock iast night at the Russ House. It is supposed that he left property worth $500,000. Little isat present known here of his connections. A nepliew, now on his way to this city from the counutry, is said to be the only relative and beir. Deceased was about 60 years of age. For many years latterly he was an extensive buyer and seller of cattle, particularly in Nevada. He arrived at the Russ House on August 29. Soon he took to his bed, but afier a little overa fortnight got up and was able to be about for a day or so. Fourdars after he sought his bed again and rapidly grew worse. trouble was thought to te appendicitis. An operation was vlanned by Dr. A. Abrams, but his con- dition became worse and the operation had to be deferred. Saturday night he was delirious and his nephew was sum- moned by t' graph. Divine Services in the Syna- gogues With Sermons by the Rabbis, SERVICES IN EMANU-EL ~ TEMPLE. Dr. J. Voorsanger Spoke of the Year| to Come and the Year That Has Gone. Impressive scenes were enacled in the synagogues throughout the city last even- ing, when the first aay of the Jewish year was ushered in with solemn thoughts and serious reflections. The advent of this day seemed to impress on the hearts of the Isrealite the mingled feelings of awe and fervent joy. ‘‘Sanctified by the word ot holy revelation, hallowed by the attrac- tive voica of venerable tradition and en- deared by the beloved memory of ancient custom’’ the day was blessed. The synagogues presented a beantiful appearance. The ark of the covenant, in which rests the m.nuscript scrolls of the law, was ornamented with white satin, and the cantor stood in a blaze of light from the candelabra. Following the sun- set services, the Temple Emanu-El was filled with those who listened to the words of Rabbi Voor<anger, who spoke of the significance of “Rosu Hashono.” | Seemingly the portals of the new year | were opened with song. The music ren- | dered during the festival was prepared | and presented to the temple by Cantor Rev. E. J. Stark. Following the impres- sive opening services Rabbi Voorsanger said in pari: “‘Again the hour-glass is overturned— the sandsof a year are coanted. Time, with ruthless scythe in hand, has mowed down the weeds and grasses that sprang up within it. We salute the incoming year, and #t this moment, my people, it gives me happiness to salute you. I pray for your bappiness. 1 humbly ask of Deity to send you peace; to vouchsafe the consummation of your hopes and ambi- tions; to be with you and vour loved ones. It is fitting that the first utterances should be addressed to , for if there be any degree of consciousness within us, | with respect to the eternal spirit, it is | strongest within us just now, that the | minutes are journeying on and a year is numbered with the dead years of the past. “To most men a year's experience is abundant. Its hundreds of daysand more all bring their measure of action and in them they also see the stars and con- stellations revolve, occasionally in contact with each other, again crossing and re- crossing each other’s paths. Much can happen in a vear’s time that 1sof the farthest reaching influence upon a human career. Life and death, we are acc.istomed o the thought that these cau always come, subject to the Providence that or- dains tuem. “If it be true that even in our own life- | time we forget the facts crowded in our days or hours, if we witness our personal or national experiences reduced to mere | memories, dismissed in the recital with | but a word or two, how can we adequately | understand the panorazaa of change in | which, with trembling hesrts indeed, we | see the centuries themselves step off like minutes and disappear in the clouded dis- tance, which is the past? I confess the | thought is too awful for comprehension. In tnat dreadful past as in the dreadful future, made terrib.e by the long succes- sion of years in which change was and | change will be, 1 can discover butone (nn- sistent-fact of which 1 am cun:cxous——(‘ the beginning and end of a!l things.’ Those on the altar with Dr. Voorsanger were the president of the temple, R. Peixotto, Vice-president J. Greenebaum, and Cantor Rev. E. J. Stark. el G v SUNSET SERVICES. New Year’s Greeting Delivered by Rabbl Meyers. The synagogue of the Congregation Ohabai Shalome was filled last evening for the services to usher in the Hebrew new year. A choir composed of Mrs. Eva Tenny, Mrs. e Reed Cushman, Charles Parent, Willis E. Bacheller, Sara Bienenfeld, Maude Frauk and D. M. Lawrence rondered some excellent music appropriate to the holidays. Among ‘he songs were: “En Kamocko,” *Lecho Adouvi,” “Kedusha” and **Adon Olom.” | These selections are the com positions of F. Deliepiane, the organi-t of the syna- gogue. The singing was under the direc- tion of Rev. D. Meyerson as cantor. The peculiar feature of the sermon by Rabbi Is dore Meyers was that it was part i poetry. His text was “'Ethics of the Father.’” In prose the sp aker briefly ex- pluined the meaninz of the new year, and exhorted his hearers to Think whence you come and whither go, And in whose presence you musi show A true review of life below. In the conclusion of the sermon in postry the speaker bids farewell to the old year irom waich there is no hove, joy or strength to be drawn. He dwelt on the fact that the shadows of our vast acts rise iike ghost y shapes and fill us with eloom, | and that a, we near the grave we mourn the past and dread the end. “But in the new year,”” he continued, “hope and strength return as radiant vis- inns, and we cease mourning the past and | look forward to the future, and realize | that we can make our life what we wish it each day.” Services to commemorate the holidays will be neld wo-day, and the concluding exercises take phca to-morrow evening. Sunset services were also held in the Sherith Israel Temple by Rev. Jncoh‘ Nieto and in the Beth Israel Temple by | Rev. M. CASTORIA For Infants and Children.
