But now all pointment, this this i thing of the past. Memory is an unfaithful s:rvant for geod or for ill to those who are lingering in the neighbor- hood of four-score years, and for many of | them life holds no hope beyond the set- | ting sun, and they grieve but for the ills of yesterday. It was to ¢ t one bright ray of sunshine | s of these old people that the | ive Band, of which R. D. Bar- | ton is leader, voluntered to zive a concert | at the grounds yesterday. It was nearly | ck when the band arrived at the the old folks had been | anxiously for them since break- | me.

The squubble recalls the plans of Fair when he purchasei the property. It was undoubtediy his idea that tbe filling in of the inlet would have the effect of par- tially changing the water front of the city as far as manufacturing interests were concerned. i A part of his plans for the development | | of the property was the construction of | an electric railway from the heart of the | city, by way of Van Ness avenue and Bay | street, to the recovered land. His appli- cation for the Van Ness avenue franc ise was defeated on account of the protesis of the property-owners along that thor- | oughtare, and death came belore the mil- Jionaire matured new streeicar plans. | There ure those who say trat it wasa| dream of the dead man, upon the com- | pletion of the reciamsi:on of theland, to | construct a svstem of private wharves and docks in op ion o the State, PREPARE FOR 1HE FEAST, | Father Otis Urges His Congregation to e Ready for the Final Sum- mons. ! At St. Mary’s Church yesterday morn- ing Rev. Father Otis preached the sermon on the gospel of the day. He took for his text Matthew xxii: “*And the King went in 1o see the guests and he suw ihere a man who had not on a wedding gar- ment.” The minister described the feast pre- pared by the King and toid how some of | | “Then,” hesaid, “‘the King went out into | come to the feast. When all were as-| sembled he found that one was not| dressed for the event. He ordered him to be bound and put out into darkness. To us there has been an invitation sent and we, some of us, have rejected it on the ground that we have not time. In tnis| Iife 1t is too true that we make ourseives tuink that we have not time for matters pertaining to the tutnre state. When we | are summoned to the fina! reast we wili | find that we are not prepared and will have to stand the consequences. 1 we | are not clothed with the proper spirit; | if we have not paid due attention to tue | spiritual matter, then we are not prepared to enter the kingdom of heaven. “We should be ready for the gréat mar- riage f ast. In the world when we are in- | vited 1o a marriage feast we look forward | to the even: with pleasure—so siould we regurd the heavenly feact. No marriage feast of the world can in auy way equal that great one whicn ail will be invited to partake of in the end.” “THE 600D 01D WAY" Rev. Frank 8. Ford Delivers an | 0ld-Fashioned Sermon at First Christian Church, Progress in Theology Declared to Be Unliks Advancement in the Arts and Sciences, First Christian Church, on Twellth | street, between Mission and Howard, pre- | sented a unique appearance when the | getlon began to file in last eveningz. Rev. Frank 8. Ford had announced an old- ranged in keeping with the occasion. Instead of the gas and electric lights of the present day good old-fashioned tallow dips were resorted 1o for illumination. Clasters of them, fastened on pine shin- gles, adorned the walls and center sup- ports, shedding a soft, mellow light over tne nierior. Rev. Mr. Ford took his text from Jeremiah iv: 16: verse, “The good oid way,” and drew a vivid picture of the radical change in the mode of worship- ing God since the days of Jesus Christ. He began with a discussion on theologi- cal evolution, and svoke of the progres- sion in the knowledge of the Supreme Be- ing gained frem nature and revelation. He compared changes in the theological teachings with the progress in ihe aris and sciences, and as-erted that while the world had undoubiedly advanceda in the intier, there was< only one wayv to worship God, and that was tiie oldest way, the way that was observea in the begianing of Christianity. 1 | back. | property-owners that the continuity of | business on Market streei would be inter- | I know of no reason | acied as celebrant, and conducted | her death. | order of nuns, she was an ardent worker ALL WANT THE ITY HALL PARK "NEATH THE WAVE Thoughtful Citizens Favor| an Association to Devise Ways and Means. Pioneers Want the Blunder of the 01d Sale Corrected at Once. By an Energetic Movement the’City Hall Might Soon Be Very Beautiful, There is a general sentiment in favor of taking early steps to have a meeting of representative men fo discuss ways and means of doing away with the old struct- ures that surround the City Hail in such a Wway as to obscure all its beauties. The plan first suggested by Attorney Reinstein has met with general approval, and it is likely tbat it will bring forth freit at an early day. Having seen the great capitals of Kurope and having made a careful study of mettiods of bringing out architectural graces, Mr. Reinstein is fully awake to the importance of beautifying the surroundings of the city’s capitol. He has advocated tne calling of a meeting at an early date to take steps todo something ofa substaniial character. Hisideas have been indorsed by many leading citizens, among whom are Irving M. Scott, L. K. Ellert, E. A. Denicke, J. W. Kerr and many prominent lawyers and architects. There is no division of opinion as to the main question, for all agree that there ought to be a better frontagze to the ball than the old shandes that make an un- | sightly aprroacn from Market street. The following interviews, in adaition to | the | those heretofure puolished, general feeling on the subject: show Dr. W. F. McNutt—To my mind itisa| | movement in the right direction. As to the error mude originally in parting with the property we are ail united, and so should we be on theidea ofgetting theland As to the contention of some of the rupted, I differ. Tomy mind it would be the reverse. The site upon which the hall is built and the entire frontage should be one grand park unbampered by any buildings. An outlay of a2 few millions would make San Francisco one of the grandest cities 1n the United States. Daniei Norcross, picneer—[ am more than delighted after so many years’ residence in this city to see a move- ment to correct one of blunders ever made: the giving away of the people’s property fronting on the City Hall. Get 1t back by ail means, cost what Give us an open space froniing ket street, so people can see their i Hail. I faver prominent citizens to take hold of this movement. Thomas N. Sweeny, founder of Swee- nv’s Observatory olden Gate Park— This 1s a move in the ri htdirection. The land on Market street should be owned by the eity d made attractive in front of the City H. 1 favor a committee of responsible citizens to engineer the pro- jectioafi George W, Reid—This talk of spoiling business on Market street is all a humbug. why all the retail stores should be on Market street. If tiey were not there they would be some- where else. That is atl there is apout that, The City Hall front shonid be an open space. The movement to recover the lots is an excellent oue, proy ded the rizht kind of citizens are at the head of the syndi- cate. ST TERBSAS FEAST Celebrated at the Church Named for Her Yesterday Morning, A Fair to Be Opened foon for the Purpose of Wiping Out a Debt.

Allen Damaged in a Gale. An Attempt at Suicide—Gun- boats Gracefully Salute. As the fastest boat on the bay, the repu- tation of the good ola ferry vessel, the San Rafael, has been consigned to the ‘“‘dark backward and abysm of ume.” For yeuars the ferry-boat has met and con- quered them all, but when sue essayed her oid trick on the United Btates customs steamer, the Golden Gate, yesterday morning, her colors dipped beneath the wave. For the Golden Gate now has a day to shine. The Golden Gate had just started back from an inspection of the bark S. C. Allen, when she ran alongside the San Ratael, on board of which was a party of pleasure excursionists, just starting for | Sausalito. Thueir course for some distanca ran parallel, and Captsin McKenzie thougnt it would be a good joke to show Uncie Sam’s boat what it to travel fast. Accordingly he sent the San Rafael ahead under iull steam, but someiow or other there wasa screw loose—ihe Goiden Gate kept even with her. The boats ran | even up untii Iisbermen’s wharf was| licitation of his engineer, consented to put a little more steam on, and t¢ may of the San Rafael's hitherto unconguered racer began drop benind. Hastily Captain McKenzie sent for the chiel engineer and was informed that the | good old ferry-boat was doing her best. Silently the excursionists stood on the decks of the San Rafael and watched the | Golden Gute draw two lengths zhead. Lombard-street wharf she branched off and ail her decknands shouied them- from the other side. Captain Butt was greatly pleased at the feat, vut remarked carelessly that it was nota race; his vessel simply had a little too much steam on and he wished to run some of it off before she reached Ler moor- ings at Meiggs' wharl. **We had only two-thirds measure on,” | he said. “Witn a full sweep we could | have run away from her.” | The bark S. C. Atlen arrived here yes- | terday from Honoulu with s cargo of sugar cons.gned to Williams, Dimon1 & Co. She left Honolulu Septemover 28, and in latituie 37 degrees 35 minuies north, | longituse 134 degrees 52 minutes west, en- countered u norih-northeast gale which carried away her fore :opgaliani mast and tore lower tovgallant yard. One of the prettiest ;i his witnessed by those taking a holiday stroil along the water front in many a day was the final proces-ion or ‘‘dress parade’” of the Corinthian Yacht Ciub for the season. The white-winged fleet to the number of a dezen sails uade an excursios around i | | the bay for the greater part ot the day, and toward evening all :cudded in a body | for Richardsons Bay, near Belvedere, the winter gquarters o: tae club. | The United States gunboat Marietta | came down from Mere Island Saturday evening and anchored in the stresm. She | will proceed to Alaska next Wednesday, | teking along eieven new men for the new ciuiser Concord. This plan, however, may be changed and the Marietta sent to Hawait instead. The captain of the French ecruiser| Duguay Trouin paid a friendly visit yes- | terday afternoon to the Marietta, and wa: given a salute of nine guns, the French flag being hoisted at the same time. Tue French vessel responded with a similar salute, and ran the American flag to the peak of her foremast. The United States customs steamer Hartley, which relieves the Gclden Gate at night, will soon change her berth from the foot of Lombard street to section B of the seawall, nearer the Golden Gate. This will cause four boats—lommy Haydon’s, theS .ilors’ Home's, the senior Crowley’< and Maurice Bevan’s—to be moored at otl:er points, and there isconsiderable un- rest resuiting. J. Juinette, an Italian living at 110 Alta s'reet, jumvped overboard irom Lombar.- street wharf yesterday while temporarily | insane from the use of liquor.

LEAPED iRUM A TRAIN, A Newcomer Nea ly Loses a Leg to Save a Hat, Fred Medoza, a Spiniara who reached this city from Rhode Island last Satur- day, met with-a very painful accident near Sutro Heights yesterday afternoon. He was on the steam cars on his way to the C.iff Hous , when his hat blew off, and e jumped off the moving train to recover 11, The result was a dislocation of the ankle joint, which will keep him laid up for many weeks at least. The train was nearing the station at the time, and if the Snaniard had. only been a littie more patient he couid prob- recovered his hat without run- risk, vut his nas e got the betier cretion, and_ the i85 of far more | ning an of hisd than mauy hats wiil be the consequence, The injured man was carr.ed to the park ambulance sia 1n, where bis ankle was set by Dr. Wymore, who then sent him to the City and County Hospital.

The statement made in Sunday’s CaLL that the tea stolen by Wiillam Kclly and Thomas Edwards was stcred 1n the cellar of Mrs. Lyons’ house, on Clinton street, is said by that lady 10 be a zaistake.

NAL PIGNIG OF THE SEASON Shooting and Merry-Making Hold Full Sway at Schuetzen, Scores Made by the Marksmen on the Rifle Range Near San Rafael Yesterday, California Schuetzen Club, San Fran- cisco Grutli Club and Other Clubs Hold Regular Shoots. It was like one of the good old-time picnics and shoots at the Caliiornia Schuetzen Club’s grounds near San Ra- fael yesterday. The early morning trains brought large crowds of picnickers, and the dancing pavilion, swings, bowling alley, shooting range and all the other places of amusement had their actively moving crowds. The occasion was one of more than passing interest, not only from the fact that the members of the Californi Schuetzen Club, the S8an Francisco Gru the Verein E:ntracht and the .Turner Schuetzen he!d their regular champion- ship shoots, but Fred Schuemann, the manager of the California Schuetzen Club's grounds near San Rafael, gave yes- terday up to a final shoot and a picnic to mark the close of the picnicand excursion season. Fully 2000 people took advantage of the reduced rates, and in consequence the grounds were crowied with merry- makers, while the shooting gallery was the center of all attractions. 3 The following named were the winners in the grand final snoot given by Fred Schuemann at the Calilornia Schuetzen | park io mark the'close of tne picnic sea- son of '97: First p McLaug John Utsenig, 71; 2 econd, D.

The tar- get is the Columbia with the inch center and the haf-iuch rings. In his letter Dr. Foreman says: Enclosed you will find an exact reproduc- tiou of u target made by myseli to-day, Oc- tober 8, with a 22 Steven’s Favoriie r fle at fifty yards on Columbia target. Iused Lyman pecp and bead, plain irigger and shot off hand, rifle rested on finger tips. This is the turget used by the Columbia Pistol and Rifle C.ub, and I don’t remembter of reading of a score mede by any member of the sbove-named ciub that has excelled eighteen for ten consecuiive shots. I also ma.e vineteen under same conditions a few days back, Yours truly B. H, FOREMAN, M. D. Dr. Foreman’s performance is indeed meritorious, especially considering the very small rifle that ne used. However, his score has been excelled on several oc- casions by the members of the Columbia. Ed Hovey musde 17 in a reguiar match with a .22 magezine Winchester of the 7-45 pattern. F. O. Young recently made 15 1n a gailery with the .22 stort ammuni- tion, the range being only three feet | short of the regulation fifty yards. How- ever, these scores are not made every day, and Dr. Foreman’s stands among the best and compares favorably with any made in tie East. SWAM THE GOLDEN GATE. Jack Caughlan Succeeds in Lowering Cavill’s Time for That Feat. Competing oarsmen never had a more appreciative and charming crowd of ladies than those who attended the Dolphin Swimming and Boating Club reception | yesterday. Seated on the veranda of the pretty club- house they made a charming picture, and their bright smiles seemed to inspire the oarsmen with additional strength and courage. The Dolphins have always been fortunate in having a pleasant day, and yesterday was no exception. The water was calm, except off Meiggs wharf, where the tide was running rather strong. The first event to be decided was the race for the club’s diamond medal, which was competed for by Wiil O. Patch and | lex Pape. The distance to be rowed was | a mie and a half, witha turn. Pape had ! choice of position where he had advan- tage of the uide. Patch was away first and was a length ahead at the start. Both men rowed strongly until near the finish, when Pape's superior strengi.: told, and he spuried across the line about five | lengths to the gool in the fast time of | eleven minutes, Patch crossing forty-five seconds later, The time is very fast, and is said 1o be a record. Then followed a high and fancy diving exhibit in which Joseph Bartman, Joseph Earls and Ed Siolle pariicipaied. Their clever work received merited ap- plause, Alex Pape and William McCausland rowed a quurter of a mile exhibition race, which resulted in a dead heat. The cance race proved very exciting. Me srs. Meyer, Karisand Bartman oce: pled one and Captain Tom Kennedy | another. The singie man won by two lengius after a pretiy race. After the other aquatic exhibitions had | been concluded the gues:s were taken out | in barges and pigs to see Jack Caughlin swim the Goiden Gate. He jumped in the water at Fort Point and swam to Lime Foint in fifty-two minutes. When nearthe tinish the lastof the ebb tide caught him and carried him a quarter of a mile out. Still hestruggied hard and finished strong. | The barges Wieland and Arion accompa- nied him across. The Wieland was nearly | sunk off Lime Point by striking a rock. The boat was beached and the damage was repaired and the boat was rowed back without taking in a bit of water. Caughlan by his great swim performed the same feat that Charles Cavill suc- ceeded i The modern Leander | contemplates swimming from San Fran- | cisco to Oakland soon and his friends are | confiden: that he can do it. Ei Siolle, the champion quarter of a mile swimmer of the coast, has cnnl-, lensel Howard Brewer, who won the | championship of -the United States at| Chicago, to a contest which is now being arranged NEW TO-DAY.
