THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 17, 1901 BON GIRLS GARB DAWSON MAIL 1T CI-60 DINGE Two Youths Invade an Exclusive College Function. ' Escape Feminine Wrath by Leaping Through ! Windows. Special Dispatch to The Call. SEATTLE, Dec. 16.—The dormitory giris at the university held an exclusive mask on Saturday evening. During a cake- walk one of the girls chanced to glance dgrn at the feet of the couple just before h and in an instant became satisfied that the owners of those feet were not girls. The pedal extremities were toc large, the soles of the shoes were too thick and the actions of the dancers be- £poke YL;ll too plainly the masculine. * As the suspicious couple again circl the hall and passed her at the Jower sad she made a determined grab. Her femi- nine fingers closed around a wig. There was & quick jerk and wig, false face and 2ll came off with a clatter. As the wig disappeared the short cropped head of a boy came into view. Hastily running down the long hallway, the boys reached the front door. They grasped the knob a.nd_gsve a quick, strong pull. It was locked. They turned to start back along the hallway, when they came face to face with a mob of femininity. They sStopped, of course. There was then but one alternative and the boys took it. ““We've got to do it, old man,” said one of them. Ducking his head and covering his face with his arms, he gave one flying leap. There was a crash, of & heavy fall as boy, glass and window sash disappeared into the night. crash was followed almost instantly by another, as the second lad made a fiying leap through a window. It was a desperate chance to take, but the boys took it. As a consequence there is much speculation among the girls as to who the intruders were. The girls all vowed to keep it quiet, but they also mgreed to watch the hands and face of every boy they knew to ascertain which ores were cut by broken glass. Racing Results at New Orleans.

Several Water-Soaked Sacks .Are Recoveredg but the Balance Are Lost. Special Dispatch to The Call. VANCOL'VEfi. B. C., Dec. 16.—Northern mails which arrived this morning by the steamer Cottage City were much reduced from the amount that left Dawson for the outside, and what few sacks did come were in a dilapidated condition. While they were being brought across Lake Le Barge in a sleigh, with a double team of horses attached, the newly frozen ice broke through. The entire consignment was soaked with water and nearly half of the sacks were lost. The horses were drowned and the driver nearly lost his life. He went ashore and obtained help, and one by one several of the mail sacks were fished out. The Christmas mail was coming-out and a good portion of it is now at the bottom of the lake. When the Cottage City re- ceived them the water soaked sacks were a solid cake of ice. | Only a few passengers came over the ice from Dawson and they found the go- ing very rough. Two Juneau men will travel 2000 miles each with dog teams this winter carrying the United States malls between Katmai and St. Michael. They are Chauncey D. Shaw, who has resigned as _associate ed- itor of the Juneau Mining Record to un- dertake this dangerous work, and John Carter, an experienced fronfiersman. Car- ter left here some time ago for St. Mi- chael, with the expectation of starting from there for Katmail about Dzcember 10. Shaw left Juneau ten days ago for Val- des, whence he will take dogs and sleds aboard the steamer Discove for Kat- mai. It will take him twenty-eight days to reach St. Michael. From Katmai he will be accompanied by native Indian guides. They expect to reach St. Michael early in January. Each carrier will make one round trip and then return to the other end of the route, thus giving him three trips each way—one each in December, January and February. MISS IVES A WINNER ON PRESIDIO LINKS Captures Trophy Offered by Direct- ors of S8an Francisco Golf Club for Driving Contest. On account of the rapid approach of Christmas not many ladles are to be seen on the Presidio links. The driving com- | petition for lady members of the San Francisco Golf Club yesterday morning attracted only four entries, though a handsome cup was offered by the direct- ors for the winner. Each contestant drove four balls from the teeing ground toward the bunker, the total distance of the four drives being added together. Misg Flor- ence Ives won with a total of 404 yards, Mrs. R. Gilman Brown being second with a total of 403 yards. Miss Edith McBean and Mrs. Laurance T. Scott also com- peted. A strong nerth wind interfered considerably with the driving, the: strokes being made right in the teeth of it. The ladies will hold no more competi- tions during the present year, but early in the new year a contest for the Coun- cil's cup for ladies will take place. o, Tuesday, Rockers make excellent presenls Nearly one-half of one of our big floors is devoted to the display of fancy Rockers alone. isfy your taste, no matter in w’ This store will be open every evening now until Christ- And during the evening is a good time to look The entire building as welcome to look as to buy.

It met Vesuvian and The Pride on nearly equal terms at- six and one-half furlongs and it was scarcely a good workout for the Watercress gelding. Winnie O’Connor had the mount and for two-thirds of the journey Mounce and Johnny Woods had him in a pocket. Not the least bit per- turbed Winnie gradually took the favorite up below the eighth pole and slid along on the outside without ever tickling the ribs of Watercure with his heels, Vesuvian dis- playing a keen turn of speed. With two exceptions the results of the different races proved ' “‘eagle-birds” for the ring, which no doubt recouped its losses of Saturday last. Mont Eagle, Josie G, Plohn and finally El Oriente, a 25 to 1 shot, were the four bonbons popped Wwith saddening effect on the talent. It has all along been 'conceded that Josie G was a spanking good filly, but yesterday it was scarcely thought she could lower the colors of Botany. Then again Howson, who rides her, is not such a polished horseman as some of the otber boys. For this reason Botany, pilot- ed by Bullman, closed favorite at 9 to 5, while 7 to 2 could be had in profusion about Josie G. Glendenning, the stanch second choice, went out to make the pace at the start, trailed by _the favorite. Turning into the stretch Howson saved ground with Josie G and soon had Bull- man hustling Botany along, Glendenning haring fallen back beaten. Finishing on the rail Josle G seemed fittest and stowed the favorite away by a'neck. The Futuri- ty course was covered in 1:10, an excellent run. Owen Mounce came very near taking matters too easy with Frank Bell in t irtroductory five and a half furlong dash. The son of Big Henry closed a 1 to 4 chance, and at the finish had to be Tidden out to get the decision from The Miller by a head. Ransch took the show with Pompino. Big things were expected of Harry St ver's Free Lance in the mile and a six- teenth selling affair, simply because he was meeting a very cheap batch of plat- ers. The chestnut horse closed favorite, and ran unplaced. Mont Eagle, a 12 to 1 shot, ridden by Ransch, made ail the run- ning and in a drive downed Ulm a neck. Mounce made a late move with the latter, or_he would have won. Bullman seems able to get more speed out of Plohn than any of the other riders. P. Ryan'’s entry went to the post a 9 to 1 chance for the seven-furlong aumber and in a drive overtook and downed Duckoy half a length. Lee Jackson, on the fa- vorite Native, tried to run through a gas pive and climb one or two Kkopjes in the stretch. and getting repulsed in all three attempts, finished third. El Oriente from the Baldwin stable, and 20 and 25 to 1 in the betting, made a run- away race of the final mile and a six- teenth run. Jackson, on Wyoming, the favorite, did manage to beat Merops for the place. Track Notes. Among the big winners in the ring was George Rose, whose sheets showed a clean-up of over $4500. Roscoe Troxler, an extremely clever bov in the saddle, will arrive at Oakland next Friday. He comes under engagement to W. W. Elliott, owner of Hilee and other horses. Joseph Flynn received word from Texas yesterday that his brother Willie dled last week at St. Joseph’s Infirmary, Hous- ton, of pneumonia. The deceased jockey had been riding over the Texas circuit the past season, but was well known in this State, at one time promising to de- velop Into a star. - When Lee Jackson first showed at Oak- land he rode two or three very creditable races. However, with one or ¥wo more exhibitions like those on Native and Wy- oming, these former efforts will be put down as jokes, and Lee will be relegated to_the stable boy class. The first hurdle race of the season will be given at the track over the bay this afternooh. Good things will ripen faster now than strawberries in July. Dick Dwyer handled the starting gate i at Oakland yesterday, Jake Holtman re- | tiring for a couple of weeks.

Special Dispatch to The Call. WOODLAND, Dec. 16.—Relatives of Miss Belle Kline, the Bakersfield girl who, in company with Willlam Martin, disap- | peared from that city on November 22, need have no further misgivings as to her safety. Both of the young persons | are stiil alive. They are now husband and | wife and are living in Los Angeles. | It was announced here recently thal | Benjamin A. Martin, a brother of the | missing man, had received a letter from | the latter, announcing his marriage to | Miss Kline, and this publication quieted the fears of the young lady’s parents. But it was announced from the Kern County | Sheriff’s office on Saturday that a letter had been received from Benjamin A. Martin asking for information regarding the whereabouts of his brother, this indi- | cating that the Woodland man had not | received the reported news from Los An- | geles, To-day Benjamin A. Martin ex- | plained this and declared that there need | | be no further fear that the missing Bakersfield couple were not among the -living, He said the letter he wrote to the iern Sheriff asking for information | was mailed before he had heard from his | brother. The missive from Los Angeles came as was reported and conveyed the information that Willlam Martin and Miss Kline had married after leaving Bakersfleld and were living in Los' An- seles. EThe_elopers gave no reason for thelr | strange move, and as there was no op- position to their wedding on the part of relatives, their conduct is inexplicable. For weeks the Kern County authorities have conducted a diligent search for them, and the fear that they were not among the living has been constantly growing. Playing Cards and Poker Chips.

Special Dispatch to The Call. SPOKANE, Dec. 16.—Gambling will be a feature of the annual charity ball to occur in° the ,parlors of Hotel Spokane on Tuesday night. A blg wheel of for- tude, borrowed from _the notorious Coeur d'Alene, the largest sporting-house in ‘the- Northwest, will be operated by four ‘society women, under the direction of “‘Dutch Jake,” proprietor of the Coeur d’'Alene, The wheel Will pay on numbers as'in regular play. Cash, not prizes, will be'pald, the house starting with a heavy bank roll. As the wheel is what is known as a percentage game, there is no chance for the house to lose. ‘‘Dutch Jake” will see that the wheel is run ‘‘on the square,’ and the spectacle will be presented of the most notorious sporting character in Spokane rubbing elbows with the leading soclety women. The innovation was de- cided upon to-night and is causing much comment. “Dutch Jake's” real name is Jacob Goetz. He is half owner and general manager of an institution which em- braces under one roof three bars, a va- riety theater, a gambling hall, a restau- rant, a keno-room, a barber shop, a Turkish bathhouse and private wine- rooms.

Her husband, who was in'a field near the house, heard her screams and ran to her assistance. To- gether they extinguished the fire, but not until the unfortunate woman was fright- fully burned. She died before the doctor arrived.

Mountaineers Will Attempt to Defeat the Men From the East. Special Dispatch to The Call. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Dec. 16.— According to a personal letter received | from Reno, Nevada, by a Stanford stu- dent, a football game in San Francisco on Christmas day between the eleven from the University of Michigan and the Nevada State University team is a cer- tainty. Michigan had challenged Nevada to a game on that day, and the sagebrush ag- gregation seemed willing to meet them. ‘The challenge had not pbeen accepted at the time the letter was written, but the writer said it would be forthwith. The Nevadans realize that they are golng against a hara proposition, but they have dune so before and acquitted themselves creditably. Nevada .has played both Stanford and California this season, beirg defeated in each game by the score of 12 to 0, after a hard-fought struggle. Her principal victory was over the Reliance eleven by a score of 11 to 0. ''he sagebrush eleven also defeated the TUniversity of Utah team, scoring 6 points 1o their oppo- nents’ 2. Among the Nevada players, Riordan at tackle has played a star game all through the season, doing as fine work at his po- sition as has been seen on the coast; Hunter at center and Keddie and Gra- ham behind the line play straight, hard 'varsity ball. The personnel of the cardinal eleven, as it will line up against Michigan in Pasadena, will not be announced by Cap- tain Fisher until Thursday, the day be- fore the squad leaves for Southern Call- fornia. Ome thing is certain—there will be several changes to the line-up as it met California. Traeger and Hill are both on the sick list and it seems improb- able that they will be in shape to play against the mén from the Middle West. Chester Naramore, varsity hurdler and half-back cn'last year's strong second eleven team, will go south with the team and will probably appear behind the line. Naramore has not been seen on the grid- iron before this season, owing to the fact that his left arm was fractured by a fall during a hurdle race in the intercollegiate meet last spring. Alex McGlilvray, '04, is making his initlal appearance in the field. McGilvray is a remarkably fast, heady player and probably will appear at end during the game. 2 Joseph de rorest, “Bate” Burnett and Tom McFadden, former varsity players, will not be in the line-up against Michi- an. Captain Fisher and twenty other foot- ball players are going through nightly practice at tackling the “dummy,” catch- ing the ball and running through signals. The men are entering into the work with the proper spirit and sheuld be in good condition to put up a hard game on New Year's day. Strict training rules are be- ing enforced and violation of them means expulsion from the squad. Ties World’s Rifle Record.

Special Dispatch to The Call. MARYSVILLE, Dec.16.—~Whisky tugged at the trigger of a rifle in the hands of Edward Covey in Camptonville this afternoon, and as a result Henry Taylor is dead and his slayer under arrest for murder. The tragedy took place In & saloon conducted by O. G. Mayo. Aec- cording to the reports received here there was no excuse for the murder, and it was simply the wanton act of a drunken man. 3 A peculiar incident in connection with the affair is that Mayo, in whose pla the shooting took place, was so overcome by excitement that he fell in a fit of apoplexy and has not regained conscious- ness. It is believed he will not recover. Camptonville is a mining town forty- | four miles northeast\of this city. Tay- lor was a well-known' young man of the town. Covey is about the same age as his _victim" and resides with his mother. Both young men have borne excellerit rep- utations, and the shooting has created intense excitement. Covey’s weapon was a rifle of large caliber. Sheriff Bevan and Coroner Hopkins have left for Camptonville.
