Cassidy, Felix McHu gerald, George Magoonis mes M. Wilkins. The last named was designated as floor manager. The club whic about to celebrate this_anniver: is the oldest impr ment club in San Francisco. At the time the club was organized by Geo R. Fletcher there were only about 500 in- habitants within_the Richmond district. At the election of 1882 there were just 200 Votes in the entire valley, which com posed the Twelfth Precinct of the For second Assembly District. The growth of Richmond during the: past seventeen years may be judged by the vote cast at the last election in the Seventeenth. Eighteenth, Ninetcenth and Twentieth precincts of the Fortieth Assembly Dis trict, which covers the Richmond district proper. It was 1220. This would give the section a population of 5000 souls. Duri ence of the club under the preside; George R. Fletcher gystem of sewerage was established which cost the property owners over $300,000. The in sew built by the people who own real estate in Richmond empties into the ocean at Bakers Beach, a distance of four miles from its starting point. From the formation of the club and the good work accomplished by it other improvement clubs have sprung up, until to-day every section of the outside dis tricts is represented by one or clubs. The club has retained its president, Mr. Fletcher, all through existence, and to him owes much of its influence and power in the district, 'At its meeting Wednesday it passed a resolution favoring the extension of the park panhandle to Market street and also from the park to the military reservation across Richmond Valley.

PALO ALTO, April 13.—An enthusiastic send-off was given the Stanford baseball team to-night. The entire college as- sembled around the Varsity diamond and by the light of a huge bontire proceeded to go through the ceremony of sharpen- ing the Stanford ‘“‘ax” for the second in- tercollegiate game with Berkeley. Proofs of the dullness of the Stanford hatchet were recalled to the collegians by Eng- ish '00, who told of the recent defeats of the cardinal. After grievanses were re- cited a grindstone was produced, on which the ax was sharpened. A Berkeley dummy was produced and the keen edge of the newly ground ax severed the head from the body. The proof was sufficient, and the ceremonies were concluded with speeches and songs. GRANT'S FINANCIAL BACKER 1S FOUND D.C.Kenna of the Santa Fe Is the Man.

LOS ANGELES, April 13.—The state- ment was made in these dispatches some days ago that U. S. Grant Jr., in his candidacy for United States Sen- ator, received financ aid from one of the individual stockholders of the San- ta Fe Railroad. The identity of Grant's friend is revealed in the person of D. C. Kenna, one of the vice presidents and head of the legal department of the system. Kenna is a.son-in-law of R. C. Kerens of Missouri, who, it ap- pears, determined that his young pro- tege should represent California in the United States Senate. ‘Word comes from San Diego that local conditions may interfere with the plans of the theosophists in establish- ing the Universal Brotherhood of Man. The story goes that U. S. Grant's long knife is out for all who rest under the suspicion of opposing his Senatorial as- pirations. The latest record of knifing in the southland is the thrust under the fifth rib which Mayor Reed of San Diego recently received. A stout de- nial is made that Grant wielded the knife, yet it is clear to all that some one used it and that one belonged to the Grant legion. When Gage was knifed in San Diego the followers of Grant asserted that their leader was loyal to the Repub- lican nominee for Governor. Grant himself joined in a disclaimer of the knifing, so far as he was concerned. | with a vigor that astonished his ad- herents. Before the question was set- tled as to where the responsibility rest- ed for knifing the Republican candidate for Governor in that city, the Repub- lican nominee for Mayor was knifed, hence it is that the eyes of the poli- ticians are turned to Grant’s long weapon. For a peace-loving states- man, Grant seems to be concerned in a good many political cutting affrays. “OUR PRIVILEGE TO SWAP THE GAME” The New York Herald Comments on The Call’s Editorial Concerning Trading the Philippines.
