Dr. Locke Lectures on the Evils of the Present Generation. “The Modern Trojan Horse” was the subject of Rev. Charles E. Locke's dis- course at the Central Methodist Church on Mission street last night. He likened the struggle between ancient Greek and Trojan to thg conflict of to-day between right and wrong; and drew a resemblance between the strategy employed in the capt of Troy and the methods by which the evil one seeks to destroy men's In part Dr. Locke said: The old story of the long conflict be- tween the Grecians and Trojans, and how what could not be accomplished by Gre- clan prowess was effected by Grecian strategy, and after ten years of hard fighting, by means of a hundred warriors concealed within the huge wooden horse, Troy was overthrown and the beautiful Helen was taken home to Greece. Con- tinuing, Dr. Locke said: I have asked your attention to the recital of this anclent legend because it alars trates what is being done in these bright end of the century days.

Bennett, who was pensioned by the Police Commissioners a year ago and immediate- ly started for the frozen north in quest of wealth, has written to friends in this city relating his experiences and fortune since he sailed from the Golden Gate. During the month of November he, with another miner, Charles Rvdell, was ap- pointed at a meeting of minefs held in Circle City to investigate the office of Recorder Blake at St. Michael. The men tarted from the mines at Gullivan Bay down the Cheenik River in a schooner. The sailor atsthe tiller, unfamiliar with the river, grounded the vessel forty-five miles past the point of destination, and a leak caused the passengers and crew to walk to the settlement. Bennett and his companions then attempted to return to Gullivan_Bay, a distance of 250 miles, on foot. During the ~journey Bennett sprained his ankle on the slippery ground, and being in the rear and unable to at- tract the attention of his comparions re- mained for several hours in a perilous condition until his friends returned. In speaking of the mines Benneft says that with a dredger and suction pump enough gold could be taken from the beds of the rivers to :.quidate the Spanish war debt. When the ex-lieutenant of police arrived at Gullivan Bay a year ago he pitched the second tent in the vicinity. ow, he says, there are between four and five hundred, and the prospects are that the number will be doubled when the ice on the river breaks and permits naviga- tion. His claims run along the river a distance of about two and a half miles, and comprise the better portion of the auriferous river bed. Since his arrival he has disposed of twenty-one claims at a good ce, but intends to retain his other claims, believing that some of them will produce fortunes when they can be properly worked. —_—————————— The Moody Meetings.

Competitive points were arranged as follows: Neat- néss, harmony of effect, 50 discredit; reasonably rank, 2 credits; quite shock- ing, 50; most repulsive and painful to the eye, 100. The man who got the lowest number of points was to pay for the din- ner for the crowd, including the judges.

O'Brien wore what he called ‘“‘a-man- from-Mexico shirt, bars all around and nothing to drink.” Newman appeared in a hand-painted darling, showing a frappe bottle with corkscrew figure effects all around. Kennedy was cool and confident, dis- playing a gem in water color, with Klon- dike suggestions such as icicles, a mid- night sun and polar bear accompaniment. The walk was exciting and conducted without coat or waistcoat. Andrews was allowed fifty discredits for “harmonious- ness.” O'Brien won twenty-five points for ‘“‘reasonably rank”; Blazer was placed in the same class, while Newman and O’Callahan were given ©0 on the score of *“quite shocking.” The honor of carrying off the palm and B +O+ O+ 0+t Oe>e@ B R O R O R O S S--0-0> B*P e+ edbeie® sitting at the head of the table was awarded to Bolton, the decision being that his combination not only brought tears to the eyes but was evidently con- ceived in the interests of opticians.

RIFLEMEN BORE THE TARGETS 1§ THE STORM Good Attendance at Schuetzen Park. JOHN UTSCHIG STILL CHIEF CALIFORNIA CLUB HAS A LIVE- LY CONTEST. C. J. Walden Won First Prize With 100 Points—Turner and Ein- tracht Club Shoots—The Scores. SAN RAFAEL, March 19.—The shooting stands at Schuetzen Park were well filled with marksmen to-day, notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather, and some good scores were made. Three clubs were present, the California Sehuetzen Club, the San Francisco Turner Schuetzen and the Verein Eintracht Shooting Section, all | holding bullseye shoots. In the Turner shoot John Utschig Sr. upheld his high standard by making the top score of 417 points. In detail the scores were as follows: John Utschlg Sr., 417; A. Utschig, 418; R. Langer, 492; H. Enge, 59%; O. Burmeister, $6 Captain Attinger, 1008; Charles Sagehorn, 116; R. Finking, 1207; G. Tammeyer, 1682; Joseph Straub, 18§3.

Hartwig; cleventh, Louls Smith. The liveliest contest of the day was the bullseye shoot of the California Schuetzen Club, ‘owing to the presence of a larger number of marksmen belonging to that organization. Despite the gray sky and the poor light on the target, the rain and the frequent gusts of wind,'the members of this club did as good shooting as the most ardent sharpshooter could fiave ex- pected. C. J. alden won first money, scoring 100: H. Enge was a close seconi ith 117, The complete scores were as £ol loWS C. J. Walden, 100; H. Enge, 117; F. E. Mason, 146; F. P. Schuster, I J.

The result fully justi- fled his recommendation that the little fellows be placed in the cadets’ class. The names of the boys and their scores were: G. F.

Lieutenant Neall, Fourth Cavalry, re- ported to Colonel Compton, commanding the Presidio, yesterday morning. The cavalryman was formally placed under arrest by his superior officer. This means that Lieutenant Neall will be con- fined to his quarters until his case has been disposed of by the military authori- ties. In yesterday's Call was published the facts in connection with the return of the officer from Mexico. He has come back on the advice of friends to stand trial and make good his shortages. Colonel Compton would not discuss the case yesterday. He merely stated that Lieutenant Neall had reported to him and that he had ordered him under ar- rest. He refused to say what would be done in the case. ILieutenant Neall has made good his public indebtedness. Ma- Jor General Shafter was notified yester- day of Lieutenant® Neall’ s return. The | Nealon and J. White; next few days will develop what will be the outcome of the case. It is highly probable that Colonel Compton will pre- fer formal charges against the officer and that he will be court-martialed, but he has it in his power to let him off with a reprimand. The men of Troop B, which was com- manded by Lieutenant Neall, were de- lighted at his return. One of them said yesterday: “It would take very little time to acquit the lieutenant if the men of his own troop were on the court-martial.” A number of the officer’s friends called on him yesterday. —_— RACING AT OAKLAND.

McCoy Will Quit Work Wednesday and Joe Will Take Light Exer- cise From Now On. Neither a pelting rain nor a heavy south wind deterred about twenty sports from visiting the training aarters of Choynskl at Ingleside and of McCoy at the Casino yesterday. The “Kid"” disappointed them, however, for he observed the day of rest, but Joe satisfied their curiosity by giving them a complete performance of lis ath- letic abilities. The visitors drove first to McCoy's quarters and then to Choynski’'s. All the coaxing that the lovers of pugilistic prep- aration could muster for the occasion was inefficacious when directed toward the Easterner. He said he was in ripe con- dition and that his body needed rest. He was lively of spirit and invited them all to see him at work during the next three days, for he will cease training on Wed- nesday, holding off from all manner of exercise until he steps in the ring Friday night. Ehoynskl under the eye of Graney, gaye an exhibition of what he can_do 'when called upon. A hot bout with McConnell and one or two others, bag punching and rope Bkipp1n§ made the sum total of his work yesterday. Joe jumped the rope so well and so long that even Graney was winded. Some of the visitors began count- ing the revolutions of the rope, but they soon became lost in inextricable mazes. Eddie Graney at the conclusion of the performance claimed he had kept tally and he shouted 4000. The crowd turned round and moved toward the bar. Graney paid for the drinks. Light work will be the order of training for both men during the last few days. —_——————— Sport in the Handball Court. There was a large crowd at Ryan’s handball court yesterday to witness a game between two young pupils of Pro- fessor Riordon, who have been in train- ing for six months. Neither of these young athletes has seen his twentieth birthday, yet they played a game yester- day for the medal offered by Phil Ryan for the best amateur players frequenting the court. The game was single-handed and was between M, Maguire and E. Curley. The at the finish of one of the closest games played in the court for a number of years they received a round of applause from a crowded gallery that would have made veteran athletes proud.

SLOW RACING ON WET FIELDS | FORM PLAYERS IN GREAT LUCK AT UNION PARK. Nearly Every Event on the Long Programme Captured by the Fav- orite—Controller Wins There were about fifteen law-abiding coursing men and twenty policemen un- der the command of in Dillon at the Ingleside Coursing Park yesterday after- noon. The patrol wagon that stopped -at the entrance served but the purpose of an ornament, for no pools were sold and the squad of officers did not have an oppor- tunity to reduce weight through violent exercise. The dogs ran just the same from the be- ginning of the programme to the end. There was no shouting of poolsellers, no cheering or enthusiasm. The dogs were exercised and the owners seemed satisfied. ‘Without the necessity of waits to give poolsellers a chance to earn their illegal commissions the card was run off in peedy fashion. The entire day’s sport s completed by 3:30 p. m. ake from Mac's Melody after a hard course. The hares were slow on account of the heavy ground, and a heavy rainstorm through- out the afternoon seemed to take the life loul of the dogs.

LOS ANGELES, March 19.—This proved another good day's coursing at Agricult- ural Park. The crowd was not as large as usual, owing to a cold wind in the after. noon, but the grandstand was well-filled. There twlz:re twdu stakes, a sixteen dog open stake, and a thirty-two doj Vi stake for dogs that has}; not rug lglex'ss%rzi second since December 1, 1898. In the first stake Passons won first and second money with Merry Maiden and Pat Mal- IO{, Fleetwings third, Filinir fourth. n the reserve stake Winston's A B C won first money, with Lass o' Gowrie sec- ond, Duty third and Occidental fourth.

Preparations for a Grand Exhibition of High Class Dogs Are Being Made. The American Kennel Club’s special committee is in Ppo: sion of powers that, with slight exce . make it practically independent of the govern- ing parent body. Its first meeting will be held on the 25th inst., and various matters await its judicial decision. The Pacific Mastiff Club held its month- ly meeting last night. Duncan S. Murray and William H. Dick were elected direct- ors, one to replace E. Doelter, and the other as substitute for C. A. Spreckels, vice president, now traveling in Europe. The new rule of the American Kennel Club limiting the validity ,of a “listing to one year, excites much comment. The Pacifie rule is not altogether prejudicial to the owners’ interests, as many will undoubt- edly prefer to register their dog in the cents yearly for stud book to paying re privilege of showing their dogs n o bench show. The registration gives 5\ ('lvru"\('ulr of the dog's [ igree, and Areatly enhances his value for breeding urposes. 5 PUiPls probable that in the future clubs will be compelled to charge exhibitors the oxtra 2 cents for the listing fee, as the tax will be too heavy a drain on club's exchequers under the new ruling Y. W. Lacy of Boston, who is to judge at the coming San Francisco Kennel Pench show, will probably bring out a brindled mastiff_ pup by Dr. C. A. Lougest's Black Peter. This is the dog that Dr. Fred d’Evelyn intended to pur- chase, and was prevented from so doing by his imperative I to San Francisco. It is understood th: out the mastiff for J. P.

At a meeting of the Mission Federation of Improvement Clubs, Saturday night, various subjects were discusged, in which some of the Supervisors were not kindly mentioned. It was charged that certain members lacked courtesy when the exec- utive committee of the federation waited on the body while sitting as a committee. It was broadly hinted that a poor man’s club did not meet with proper considera- tion. A resolution was passed requesting the Governor to veto Assembly bill 19, intro- duced by Rickard; also censuring the Legislature for its failure to pass Mead's bill, relating to polltax. Dr. Chau‘l%s V. Cross, president of the Western Addition Club, requested the co- operation of the federation in stopping ty limits after n pledged it- interments within the the vear 1902. The federatio self to support the proposition. The suggestion of Chairman Dohrmann of the Merchants' Association to raise a special tax to meet the irements of outside improvements was favorably re- ceived. The federation is bound to have the sewer constracted from Ocean View to the bay along the bed of I Creek, “dollar limit or no dollar limit. s Results at Sutro Baths.
