Each of the thirty-four European fire insurance companies doing busi- ness in this State has been presented with an officlal demand by Insurance Inspector Clunie for unpaid license fees, which in a majority of the cases run back twelve years and which ag gregate $2 These license fees were imposed by a law enacted March 3, 1885, requiring foreign insurance companlies operating in this State to pay annually 1 per cent on their premiums to the Treas- urer of every county or city and coun- ty In which the business was done, for the benefit of the firemen’s relief fund of such county or city and county. The law has not heretofore been en- forced, because of a decision of the Su- preme Court, obtained soon after its enactment, holding that it Imposed a municipal tax, which could be levied only by a municipality. Commissioner Clunie, however, maintains the State’s right to impose such a license as the one contemplat- ed, and that it is the duty of the In- surance Commissioner to deny to com- panies refusing to pay the fees permis- eion to do busi . He declares, more- over, that he shall enforce the law in case his demands are not honored by the 1st of February. ————— Elected New Officers. The annual election of the Srsko Jed- instvo Benevolent Boclety was held on the evening of the 3d inst., after which a. banquet in honor of the new officers took place.

So the chances are that the vessels named have been driven out of their course, IN HONOR OF THREE BELLES | the health and police Elegant Ball at the Tevis Residence Last Evening. Scenes of Generous | Hospitality Pleasantly Renewed. | Dear Sir: The Affalr Complimentary to Miss | Blanding and the Misses Salisbury. Two dainty buds, Miss Susie Bland- ing and Miss Margaret Salisbury, and one of the most charming belles of this season, Miss Kate Thornton Sallsbury, were the especial guests of honor at the ball given last evening by Mrs. Lloyd Tevis, at her elegant home corner of Jackson and Taylor streets. It has been many years since the Tevis home, famous in days gone by for its generous hospitality, was the scene of so large and brilllant a gathering. The few old friends of the family pres- ent, for the majority of guests were the especial friends of the young guests of honor, compared the entertainment, with most delightful results, to the many affairs of a similar nature given by the generous hostess nearly twenty years ago. The same elaborate hos- pitality that prevailed then was re- peated, and the only difference seemed to be that in place of the old familiar faces in the vast ball room were the sons and daughters of those who had | assisted at those magnificent entertain- ments. The guests last evening numbered 200, and the entire lower floor of the house was placed at their disposal. Each apartment boasted of some in- dividual decorations. No set arrange- ment was adhered to, but the effect of choicest flowers, arranged with that art which conceals all art, was beautiful and pleasing in the extreme. In the corridor long-stemmed Ameri- can Beauties and violets filled the huge vases and bowls that were placed in the many pretty niches. In the main drawing-room there was a delightful arrangement of bridesmaid roses. The dining hall was gay with cordons of | green and bunches of red berries, and the reception-room was handsomely decorated with carnations of every shade, each blossom of which was a prize hothouse flower. All the rooms were covered with snowy white canvas and the dancers were made welcome everywhere. At 10 o'clock the guests began to ar- rive and dancing was at once Inaug- urated. There was no receiving party. Mrs. Tevis, surrounded by all the mem- bers of her family, had a kind word for each and every one. At midnight dancing was suspended and a deliclous supper enjoyed, which | again was followed by the dance which continued until the wee sma’ hours. BOXING CONTESTS [N OAKLAND Matches Made by the Reliance and Acme Athletic Clubs. The Exoelstor Club Will Give a First-Class Entertainment Soon. The Acme Athletic Club of Oakland has arranged a boxing match between | articles of agreement a few Marty McCue and Jimmy Riley. The boxers will meet in a limited round con- test on the evening of the 14th imst., weigh In at 127 pounds. This will be the event of the evening, but the club is arranging a first-class preliminary and doubtless the members will be treated to an excellent fistic entertain- ment, as the Acme Club has a repu- tation of giving first-class exhibitions. The Reliance Club of Oakland is not sleeping on its watch by any means. The directors are busily engaged look- ing up first-class talent and will an- nounce in the very near future their programme. A member said last even- ing that McCue in all probability would be selected as one of the boxers who will be engaged to try conclusions with some clever exponent of the manly art. McCue seems to be a particular favor- ite in Oakland, because he invariably “puts up” a first-class bout, which gives general satisfaction. Tom Sharkey is training hard at Val- | lejo for his prospective matrh with Jlm Jeffries, who is reported as being fit to enter into any kind of a war dance .where gloves are worn by the contest- ants. The National Athletic Club, under weight is sanguine of securing a permit on Friday next from committee of the Sharkey received days ago from Peter Maher for a limited round contest to be held in this city or in the city of New Orleans, but with all due credit to Thomas Pharkey, he has re- fused to have anything to do with them until he has first disposed of Jim Jeff- ries, the champion of the orange groves of Southern California. The following letter from Fred Wald- stein, the secretary of the Elcelsior Athletic Club of this city, to the sport- ing editor of The Call is self-explana- tory: board of supervisors. San Francisco, Jan. 4, 1898 To the Sporting Editor of The Call— The monthly exhibition of the Excelsior Club will take place Thur: day evening, January 13, at its clul rooms, corner of ¥ighth and Fnlinm streets. There will be ring, club swinging and other mhla(lc eports by amateurs of well-known clubs for valuable prizes. The main event of the evening will be a six-round contest for the amateur featherweight cham- pionship of the Pacific Coast and also for a valuable trophy between Jimmy McGrath (Young Mitchell's protege) of the Excelsior Club and Joe Sullivan of the Imperial Club at a 128-pound, weigh in at 6 o'clock. —_— e DONAHUE RECAPTURED. wrestling, A County Jail Escape Who Enjoyed a Brief Spell of Liberty. Patrick Donahue, who escaped from Branch County Jail 2 on December 18 last, was recaptured by the police yes- terday morning and will be turned over to Sheriff Whelan, to be dealt with as that official sees fit. Donahue was arrested early in Octo- ber last on a charge of carrying burg- lar’s tools, and on the 28th of the same month was convicted of the offense and sentenced to six months in the | County Jail. Captain Clarkson, the superinten- dent, when the larger part of his term had expired, put him to work in the stables, where men who have but a | few weeks to serve are often employed. Donahue made good his escape and was not seen again until the police | rounded him up. ———————— Automatic Music Company. The California Automatic Music Com- pany incorporated yesterday with a cap! tal stock ¢ $100,000. The directors are: Isaac Frohman, Sigmund M. Bettman and James F. Hallock. KEARNES HAD INMATURE VEAL: Inspectors Dockery and Davis Made a Big Capture Yesterday. Warrants Will Bs Sworn Out for the Rancher and J. 8. Golameyer. Chiet Food Inspector Dockery ana‘ Chief Market Inspector Davis of the | Board of Health made an important | seizure of contraband meat on the San | Bruno road yesterday morning that | will probably cost James Kearnes and | J. 8. Goldmeyer, the proprietor of the | Queen City Market, heavy fines. The inspectors have'been on the look- 1 out for Kearnes for some time, having | been informed that he was in the habit | of driving up from his ranch in San | Mateo County on dark and foggy | nights with wagon loads of immature | veal. Their vigilance was rewarded | shortly after midnight yesterday by seeing a man who works for Kearnes | driving along the road with a heavily loaded wagon. He left a large number of immature calves concealed in a barn at 214 Langton street, owned by Kearnes, where the inspectors found them a few minutes later. Anticipating that Kearnes was still to come the inspectors went back to watch for him, and were rewarded an hour later hy seeing him drive up the road, his wagon also heavily laden. After stopping at the barn and leaving more calves he drove to the shop of Goldmeyer at Second and Howard streets and left the carcass of a cow. By the time the inspectors reached the shop the carcass had been cut up, but evidences were found that it was dis- eased. Warrants will be sworn out for the arrest of both Kearnes and Goldmeyer, the first on a charge of bringing con- traband meat into the city and the sec- ond of offering the same for sale. The calves and beef were seized and sent to the fertilizing works. As this is the second offense of the two men the inspectors expect to make them pay heavily for their acts. | Itienne Nougue Insolvent. Etienne Nouque's application to be ad- judged insolvent was nted by Judge Belcher yesterday. His\liabilitles amount to $372 18 and his assets $3. THE FIRST NEW YEAR’S WEDDING.

Question of Constitutionality Wil Not Bes Tested Just Now. “Do not rouse the sleeping lon.” Perhaps this admonition from a mem- ber of the Supreme bench of the State was given in order to put a stop to useless litigation; but whatever may have been the motive of the advice the effect has been startling. ‘When Attorney A. D. Lemon threat- ened to test the constitutionality of the Police Courts of the city and coun- | ty of San Francisco it is possible that the threat was nothing more than the natural ebullition of indignation aris- ing from defeat, but while the Judges of the Police Courts were not much alarmed over Lemon's propesed action they did not rest so easy under the hidden meaning of the “sleeping lion.” There immediately began a legal game of tag with each of the four members of the Police Court, endeav- oring to fix upon some other member the onus of being “it.” They did not realize the fact that the ‘“sleeping | lion” might possibly have a leugth of | ears that would place him in another family of animated nature. Yesterday the four Police Judges had out their “busy-day” cards, but the business which occupied their minds was not that which comes from the misdemeanors pf their fellow-men. They were interested in finding out just where they were “at.” | ‘When Mr. Lemon got unduly exer- | cised over his case and breathed his threat of turning loose the dogs of law, or words to that effect, upon the ques- tion of constitutionality of the acts of the sitting Poljce Judges, he raised such a sense insecurity in the breasts of four men who have gent chills down the backs of various evil doers that for a while the wheels of justice almost refused to turn. It looked dark, indeed, in the early | morning hours for the judges, but as the day waned and the fog cleared Lemon experienced a change of heart and concluded that the sleeping lion | would not be roused. too much trouble for the public, and | anarchy and chaos might reign if the | lion was not permitted to have his nap out. easler. Judge Joachimsen felt sure that he would not be disturbed in any event as he held down the bench in division No. 8 and the unconstitutionality could only apply to division No. 4. But Judge Low has a word to say about this. He cannot see why he should be relegated to the rear simply because he happened to be put on the fourth bench by the presiding judge. He thinks that the fact that he recelved the largest num- ber of votes at the election would in- dicate that he was a fixture. The result of all this scare was that each of the four incumbents ransacked their desks and found their election certificates and were ready to meet any and all comers. But happily for the public and the judges Lemon will not press his point and those who are on | the lookout for strange things will miss the opportunity of finding out whether the animal is really a lion or another animal with a borrowed skin.
