Several Animals Have Been Killed in the Vicinity and There Is a Suspicion as to Who the Guilty Party Is. An unknown miscreant made an at- tempt yesterday morning to poison “Golden Lion,” the valuable St. Bernard dog owned by Charles ewman. The condition of the dog was discovered in time and the prompt use of emetics saved his life. ‘When Mr. Newman left his home at 424 Post street, yesterday morning, Lion was to all appearances in good health. About 10 o'clock Mrs. Newman discovered he was In great pain and immediately noti- fled her husband, who returned to the house to find the dog in convulsion; eral hours’ work Lion was pronounced out of danger, During the past few weeks a number of dogs and cats have been poisoned in the vicinity of Mr. Newman's home, but why any one should wish to kill Lion the owner is at a loss to explain. The dog is of a very gentle disposition and s0 well trained that he has never been known to bother even the children who play with_him. Golden Lion is well bred, has a num- ber of tricks and has a record of five feet seven and a_quarter inches for a high jump. Mr. Newman values the animal at $1000. He has a suspicion as to who the person is who attempted to poison his pet and promises the fellow an inter- esting time if he can prove his gullt. ——e——————— BENEFIT FOR COMPANY A.

Under the auspices of the Sodality of St. Aloysius an interesting and enjoyable entertainment will be given in the base- ment of the French church on Bush street next Sunday afternoon. Prepara- tions in anticipation of the event have al- ready been completed. A well arranged programme of both literary and musical selections will be rendered by the mem- bers of the sodality and will constitute the main and principal feature of the entire entertainment. 5 Owing to the talent of those who will make the affair a success, a large audl- ence is expected to be present, more through curiogity than any other reason, to see what French boys can do in the way of presenting to the public a pro- gramme of interest as well as enjoyment. The committee of arrangements consists of Rene Dumontelle, Patrick Donahue and Camille Lahanier. The instrumental music will be furnished by the sodality orchestra, the members of which will ren- der many individual selections on differ- ent instruments. The entertainment will commence promptly at 3 o’clock. Tickets can be se- cured by those desirous of attendingat the home of the clergy immediately olning the church, on Bush street, or at the box office at the entrance to the hall. —_———— Ellis-Street Car Line Extension. The Market Street Railroad Company contemplates extending its Ellis street line to the Affiliated Colleges and the proposed Sutro Library. To accomplish this change the Stanyan street line will be continued from Frederick along Stan- an street to Parnassus avenue, along the atter to J street and Fourth avenue. Other important street railroad changes and extensions are under consideration. The next stretch of roadway to be con- verted from steam to an electric line is umr running from Central avenue alon Callfornia street through the Richmon district. This line will be changed as soon as the ga.n Bruno road is finished in the early spring. —_—————— Poison Theory Groundless. Investigation into the death of Patrick Brannan, a blacksmith, which occurred at his home, 4 Cedar avenue, on Wednes- day, was commenced yesterday. It was conceded that the wife’s suspicion that he had been poisoned by a prescription compounded at Smith's drugstore was absolutely groundless. Brannan was well amg in years, hfilu passed uventl.eu 3; them Wwithin this mortal coll, and lost tality 1s thought to have been the of his'death. A GREAT MINING BUREAU PLANNED MINING MEN PROPOSE A PRACTICAL ONE. The Miners’ Association May Revo- lutionize Itself and Enlarge Its Scope and Purposes. A new and striking project will be brought before the annual convention of the California Miners’ Association, which will begin a three days’ session in Native Sons’ Hall on Monday. It is proposed to enlarge greatly the scope, purposes and membership of the association, and if the idea is carried out the mining industry should receive a great uplift in the State. The proposition is to make the associa- tion a permanent and active force which | shall constantly and in all possible ways foster not only gold mining, but every form of the industry in the State. To this end it is proposed that permanent head- quarters be established, and that the secretary shall be the active executive force, giving all his time to the work at a good salary and pnssibli ‘with the ald of assistants. He shall be a practical and energetic mining man, shall hustie about the State and direct a bureau in- tended to advertise the mineral resources of the State, supply general information to prospectors, miners and investors and aid the industry in every way open. The work would somewhat resemble that of the State Board of Trade, and might in- clude a badly needed permanent mining exhibit here. It would also be prac- tical and not scientific merely, and in this and in the projection of a real initial force into this great industry it would supplement what is done by the State Mining Bureau. It is being urged by the Mining and Scientific Press and leading men interested in the industry. It is announced that Lieutenant Gov- ernor Neff will gosltlvely retire from the presidency which has been forced on him ever since its organization six years ago, and a lively contest for the office has started between W. C. Raiston and Secre- tary Julian Sonntag. E. H. Benjamin ot Alameda and Robert M. Turner, late of Nevada County, are rival candidates for the secretaryship. A large attendance is assured and a number of mattters of great importance will be dealt with. —_————— A VICTORY FOR SPORTSMEN. Corea’s Heavy Fine Upheld by Three Superior Judges. The Fish and Game Commissioners of this State consider they have won a grand victory over the violators of the game laws of California. Yesterday Superior Judges Cook, Wallace and Borden up- held the decision of Police Judge Conlan in the case of J. F. Corea. In August last, during the closed season for ducks, Corea was found to have a lot of these wild fowls for sale in his stalls in the ‘Washington-street market. The deputies of the commission arrested him, and on the 20th of that month he was taken be- fore Judge Conlan, found guilty and fined $100. This was the heaviest fine ever im- ?osed in this State for the viclation of he game laws. Corea and several of his fellow-dealers decided to make a fight against the law, and contended that the fine was exces- sive. The attorney for the commission argued that it {s just such men as the de- fendant who do more to encourage the violation of the law than any others. The argument that if the commission merchants and dealers did not encourage the market hunters to kill game out of season by buying their product the law would be violated much less had great wel‘fht with the Superior Judges who up- held the judgment of Police Judge Conlan. The case has been watched with great in- terest by the sportsmen and market hunters, too, for that matter. —_——— THE REPORT SOLD. It Is Now Controlled by E.W. Scripps and Paul H. Blades. A deal has just been consummated whereby E. W. Scripps, president of the Scripps-McRae Newspaper League, and Paul H. Blades have secured a controlling interest in the Dally Report of this city. Messrs. Scripps and Blades are old news- paper men and have interests in some of the best known evening papers of the country. At present Mr. crlé)%; is_living on his ranch at San Diego, an r. Blades has been connected with the Los Angeles Record. Mr. Blades will take direct con- trol of the paper. The general policy will be about the same and no important changes will be made on the local staff. The amount paid for the paper has not been announced, but it is understood that 1500 ‘of the 2000 shares were purchased by Scripps and Blades for $45,000. Mr. Bunker will retain his connection with the paper for the present, at least. —_— ee——— A New Corporation. Articles of incorporation were flled yes- terday by C. W. Kohlsaat, 8. H. Fried- lander, J. L. Phelps, Thomas E. Ryan and Samuel Samter for the exhibition of the mutoscope on the Pacific Coast, and for the purpose of condglgung various amuse- ment enterprises. 'The capital stock is ,000,000. e mutoscope is the wonder- ful minlature biograph that has been creating a great sensation here and abroad, the original owners of which have already amassed a fortune.

Oii++ 444444440 FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1898. WEBSTER WILL NOT SIGN THE DEMANDS Trouble Ahead for the School Board. HOLDS UP MANY BILLS AWAITS MANDAMUS SUITS BY CREDITORS. This Action Will Bring the Courts Into Play to Investigate i the Alleged School Swindles. There i{s more trouble ahead for the Board of Education. Superintendent of Schools Webster has decided to refuse to sign the batch of bills, aggregating about $50,000, recently allowed by the Board of Education, excepting only a few bills for coal. He will likewise decline to sign the large number of unpaid bills which are pigeonholed in the office of Secretary Welch of the School Board, and which have not yet been presented to the board by the finance committee. The Superintendent spoke very decided- 1y upon this subject to a representative of The Call yesterday. Said he: “The School Board has more than reached the limit of its indebtedness, as nearly as I can figure it, and I will ‘refuse to affix my signature to any more demands on the treasury except those for coal and a lew other absolutely necessary things. The $50,000 batch recently passed by the board has not yet been presented to me for ap- proval, and it will do no Foud‘ for I shall refuse. 1 have consulted various attor- neys and the District Attorney about the approving bills, and I am informed that my function is a (Lxurely ministerial one; that inasmuch as I have no_voice in the contraction of debts by the School Board I am in no way responsible for the same, but must affix my signature as a matter of form. This is something that I shall do no longer, howdver. The creditors of the board will now have the opportunit+ to bring matters to a crisi§ in the courts | by suing for writs of mandamus to com= el me to sign their demands. Then the egal status of this whole matter can be determined. Some time ago I warned the | School Board In a communication that the available funds were practically exhaust- i. No attention was apparently pald to the warning. | "“My attention has been called to the alleged jobbery In connection with the furnishing of Mission High School, and | on next Monday Mr. Stone and myself | will visit the buflding and make a criti- | cal inspection of the new furniture and | equipment, so as to determine whether | or not _the allegations of fraud are well | founded.

AsI had always enjoyed the best of health I was worried a deal over this, my first illness, and my only desire was to get a8 speedily as I could. I took regularly all the medicines as my doctog prescribed them. 1In a short time I felt all right, thought I was m and stopped taking the medicine. But it wasn’t long before I was feele ing as badly as ever, and again I bad recourse to the doctor. This kept up for some time until at last I made up my mind I would quit io:oong and try some of the remedies I saw advertised. 1 had read so much of Ripans Tabules that I concluded I would give them a trial.
