To the merchants, manufacturers and busi- ness firms of the city of Oakland: The Call- fornia Jockey Club has generously offered to donate the receipts of Saturday, the 2ist inst., for the benefit of the Alameda and Contra Costa tunnel road fund. It is of the utmest importance that this occasion shall be a pro- nounced financial success.

DILLE COMES LN FOR WRATH Ladies Are Indignant at His Strictures Upon Fabiocla Day. Many Prominent Women Hold That His Position 1s the Reverse of Unassailable. OAKLAND, May 9.—The condemnation by Dr. Dille on the Fabiola day at the, racetrack has been widely discussed in Oakland to-day. While some parts of the doctor's address are acknowledged to be incapable of denial, there are one or two paragraphs that have aroused great indignation. One of these is the follow- ing: 1 have no doubt any saloon or gn.mhlln( hell in Oakland would give the ladies a night's re- ceipts if they would stand behind the bar and mix drinks, or preside at the gaming table; | and I should like to be informed In what re- spect this Derby day is morally on & higher | plane. Another paragraph to which the ladles take objection Is that in which Dr. Dille says: “If Mr. Willlams wishes to make a donation to the biola why does he not do so-outright? Why does he require the managers to so advertise and approve his gambling scheme that they become parti- ceps criminis in every crime it produces, and so that, if their sons are ruined by it, they are estopped from any protest?”’ Mrs. Yule, president of Fabiola, says she does not understand wherein is any difference between obtaining a donation from the racetrack by means of Fabiola | day and the following of Dr. Dilie’s sug- tion and accepting a donation outright from Mr. Williams. “In any event,” says Mrs. Yule, “if Fa- biola is to be benefited by a day's receipts at the racetrack, I think it is actually more straightforward to have an op day known as Fablola day and to adver- tise and work for it as such than to take a check for an equal amount from Mr. | Williams quietly and say nothing about it. The money in either case would come from the same source, and I cannot see wherein lies the justification for Dr. Dille’s criticism. Regarding some parts of his address I do not care to speak.” Mrs. Willlam Letts Oliver said to-day: “It's a case of sour grapes. The ladies only| share the gate money. They have nothing to do with bookmaking. I see nothing to warrant Dr. Dille’s criticism. | I think Dr. Dille may some day ask the | favor of the same people that he is now abusing.” —_—— Walked It in Fourteen Hours. OAKLAND, May 8. — Assemblyman morning in accordance with a bet made Thursday. By the terms of the contract Gorman was to work all day Saturday in San Jose on Sunday.

Lewis, sexton of the First Congregational Church, and a patriotic American, has presented that church with a flag and pole, and seeks to have it placed upon the building. The trustees will decide the matter at thelr next meeting. As the Eighth-avenue M. E. Church already has a flagstaff upon their edifice it is not expected that any opposition will be made to this. Grand Jury To-Day. OAKLAND, May 9.—The Grand Jury will meet to-morrow at 1:30 p. m. Pus- tice Fred C. Clift and Constables Cronin and Koch will be the witnesses. The question of the bills they have presented to the Board of Supervisors will be in- vestigated. Oakland News Items. OAKLAND, May 8.—Con Fitzgerald and his two brothers were acquitted by Judge Allen in the Police Court this morning of @a charge of resisting an officer. Burglars called at the residence of T. F. Chapman, corner of Third avenue and East Fourteenth street, yesterday, and cut open and ransacked a trunk in the basement. Just as they forced the door to lP&e upper floor the family scared them o Mrs. Isabella Martin, who has been in prominence so often, in court and other- wise, had an experience with fire on Saturday. Her son upset a can of ben- zine and an alcohol stove together, which set the house on fire. The Fire Depart- ment extinguished it with little damage. John Milcovich, who was recently fined $100 for violating the liquor license, put up $230 cash to-day for a similar charge and battery. He walved a jury and the hearing was set for Wednesday.

HE FOUNDED THE ORPHEUM, Gustay Walter, Father of Vaudeville in the West, Suddenly Passes Awau. Gustav Walter, founder of the vaudeville business on the Pacific Coast and principal owner of the Orpheum, died at the Waldeck Sanitarium at 4 o'clock yesterday morning, whither he had been removed from his home for the purpose of being operated on for appendicitis. He had been ill but four days, and death was farthest from his fears until the very last. Mr. Walter was one of the best-known amusement managers in the United States, having achieved success in everything he undertook. He recentl established branches in Kansas. City, Sacramento, Los Angeles and St. Louls, and made contracts for the building of a vaudeville house in Omaha. The following extracts from a biographical sketch of the dead man, which appeared in an Orpheum souvenir a few years ago, will give a fair idea of the vast work accomplished by the sterling manager: “In the little town of Osterode, which nestles among the historic Hartz Mountains, the Olympus of Germany, Gustav Walter first saw the light. He was the youngest of seventeen children, and the revolutionary year of 1848 witnessed his birth. Walter's family was an old one in the little city, and for generations the business of leather manufacturing had been hand- ed down from sire to son, but the young man finding the fleld limited went to the seaport city of Bremen to become a merchant. He soon tired of the dull routine of a merchant’s life, however, and in 1865 decided to try his fors tunes in America. He found a congenial berth for sime time in New York, with Fuchs & Heubner, flour and provision dealers of high standing; but in 1874 the spirit of enterprise induced him to come to San Fran- cisco. Here he spent six years in the employ of Willlam Ehrenpfort, the carpet dealer, as head bookkeeper, but his busy brain kept turning over schemes by which to amuse the public, his idea being to start a family theater at popular prices, and about 1880 he opened a resort known as the Fountain, in the Thurlow block, on Kearny street. Realizing the fact that the San Francisco public were steady patrons of sterling attractions, his next venture was in the Vienna Gardens. In turn he guided the fortunes of the Wigwam for some time, with good success, but in 1886-87 his powers of organization were concentrated toward establishing a place of amuse- ment second to none in the country, and San Francisco’s great music hall, the Orpheum, was the result. From this point on the history of Gustav Walter and the house he established have been closely linked. The bufla- ing was commenced In November, 1886, and auspiciously opened June 30, 1887, being one of the greatest artistic events recorded in the annals of the Western stage. On this date Rosner's Electric Orchestra, brought from Buda Pesth, Hungary, at a cost of six thousand dollars, made its ap- pearance.” The Orpheum has been a grand success from the day it was opened, and the genius of its founder has appeared at every step of its progress. Mor- ris Meyerfeldt. who has long been Intimately associated as a partner in the Orpheum, will assume the general management. culture. R. D. Mead, an attorney of Honolulu, and Miss Mabel Chamberlain of Berkeley were united in marriage last Saturday afternoon by Rev. George B. Hatch at the residence of the bride’s father, G. W. Chamberlain, on Channing way. Mr. and &n. Mead will sall to-morrow for Hono- u. 3 Judge Troutt made an order last evening granting special letters of ad- ministration on Walter's estate to Morris Meyerfeldt. The letters were granted at the request of Mrs. Josephine Walter, the widow, who gets forth in the petition that the estate will exceed $10,000. Meyerfeldt’s bonds wer;h flx%dr:.t $20,000. ey i e heum wil closed untll Wednesday night ou respect ta the memory of its founder. . A Y BNE N 06 PR CHARGES OF MISCONDUCT The Matron of the City Prison Before the Supervisors. She Is Said to Have Been Neg- ligent of Her Duties at Dif- ferent Times. Bids for Lighting Public Bulldings Lower Than Ever Before for Both Gas and Electricity. The official conduct of Mrs. Walsh, | matron of the City Prison, is to be in- vestigated. The basis of the charges made against her at the meeting of the Supervisors yesterday was published in | The Call of Sunday to the effect that she grossly and habitually neglected her dutles. Supervisor Clinton, after calling atten- tion to the article published, moved that the matter be referred for investigation to_the Hospital Committee. Supervisor Devany showed his patriot- ism, or rather his animosity toward Spain, by introducing a resolution providing that the name of Balboa boulevard be changed to Dewey. Mayor Phelan made a few re- | marks in defense of the discoverer of the Pacific Ocean, saying it would be display- ing great narrow-mindedness to attempt to take away from the honor due the great Spaniard who first brought to the notice of civilization the broad waters of the Pacific. He declared that the Span- fards of old should not be made to suffer for the misrule of the modern nation. On motion of Supervisor Clinton the resolu- tion went over until next Monday. Bids for lighting pubiic bulld(ngs_ ‘were opened. The bids for gas were $150 per 1000 feet and were made by the San Fran- cisco Gas and Electric Company and the Pacific Gas Improvement Company. These bids are 10 cents per1000feet less than paid last year. The San Francisco Gasand Elec- tric Company was the only bidder for supply electric lights. Its bid was 10 cents per 1000 watts for all bulldingsexcept the outside police stations. ¥or the latter 15 cents per 1000 was bid. The old rate. is 11 cents for all buildings. All bids were referred to the Light Committee. Police Judge Conlan was granted a leave of absence from the State for sixty days. The contract for furnishing subsistence to prisoners was awarded to the Pacific Marine Supply Company on their bid if | 18.8 cents for each prisoner. P STREET IMPROVEMENTS.

Last winter while traveling through an adjoining county I first learned of Ripans Tabules, and was induced by a friend to try them. They have done me a great deal of good, and I think A SHINING MARK. The Tribute That Humbug Pays to Honesty and Merit. A clever counterfeiter does not sit up nights to imitate the bonds of a bank- rupt corporation. Knavery, like death, loves a shining mark. It »ays to merit and prosperity the complimentof copy- ing them, so far as externals are con- cerned, in the hope of deluding the public. In the world of commerce articles of proven worth are most frequently counterfeited. Duffy’'s Pure Malt ‘Whiskey, for example, is a medicinal stimulant of lich reputation. . Phy- sicians commend it, and the prudent housewife keeps it in her chest of fam- ily remedies. Mere advertising could never have raised this whiskey to the place it occupies. Its own qualities put it there. That it should be imitated is no more than one would expect. Readers of this newspaper are strenuously urged, for their own sake, to make sure that they get the genuine article, made by the Duffy Malt Whiskey Co., of Rochester, N. Y., and by nohody else. All sorts of lying representations are devised to induce people to buy substitutes. You may be told of some dreadful concoction, made of heaven only knows what, that it is in every way as good as Duffy’s Pure Malt. The tradesman who says such a thing does not deserve your natronage.
