Seawel]l of ingine Company No. 30 guilty as charged on the three charges preferred by Assist- ant Chief Shaughnessy. He was séverely reprimanded for exceeding his authority in installing the electrical device to pre- vent the horses ‘‘cribbing” and pawing, but the Commissioners were of the opin- ment and not done to tease the animals. The second charge was unjust and un- fair discrimination in the apportionment of work in the engine house and it was found that Hoseman Jordan had recelved more than his share. The third charge ‘was that the captain had given music les- sons to several little girfg in the dormi- tory and the commission\found that it had been only a technical viplation of rule 3, and the explanation that had been Jnade by the accused was stufficient. Commissioner Parry voted against the resolution and stated in explanation that he was of the opinion that the electrical device was cruel and he was not in favor of a reprimand. Commissioner Watt sald he did not think the charge of discrimina- tion in apportioning the work had been substantiated. ———— Gun Play Over “Man From Nevada.” OAKLAND, Feb. 25.—~A squabble over recelpts and salaries at the Dewey Thea- ter to-night precipitated a flst fight and a little gun play, in which Edward Chap- man, the lessee, and Charles Uhlrich, rep- resenting the actors, were the principals. Uhlrich attached the receipts in behalf of the actors and when he thought they were getting the worst of it made a peremp- tory demand on Chapman. This resulted in Chapman’s charging on Uhirich. In the struggle Chanman tried to draw a pistol on him, so Uhlrich says. Before any damage was done, however, the men were separated. In the meantime the audi- ence had to wait twenty minutes before the last act of “The Man from Nevada’ went on. There were no arrests. —_———— Young Girl Disappears.

The tendency is always from bad to worse. The simple cold becomes a protracted, stubborn one, while the discharge from the nose grows more profuse and offensive. The inflam- mation extends to the throat and bron- chial tubes, causing hoarseness, a tickling sensation and an aggravating cough.

Passing Away of Noted Horseman and Book- maker in Asylum. Special Dispatch to The Call. TOCKTON, Feb. 25.—Phil Archi- bald, who a few years ago was known on _every racetrack in America as a wealthy bookmaker, nervy plunger and the owner of several crack race horses, died early this morning in the Stockton State Hospital for the Insane, in which he had been . patient for over two years. He had been | a sufferer from paralysis for several years, but pneumonia was the direct cause of death. Archibald Jeaves a wife in San Franclsco and a mother in Aus- tralja, where the Archibald family own a grand old estate. i The deceased’s insanity was of a - llar]enalure. He suffered frequent Il'ghz strokes of paralysis, and when recover- ing from these there would appear in his befogged mind visions of ‘wondrous vealth and winning equines. At these times he used to ask the attendants to carry him out to the yard, where he could watch for the appearance of the ovening star, which he imagined was a diamond, his own treasure, and of which he talked for hours. His last words were of horses and the track. The body was shipped to San Francisco this afternoon for intermegt. A - “Poor fellow, he's better off,” was the i;enegnl comment of the former friends of Phil Archibald when they heard of his death. It was sad news to them, for he was popular in the sporting world, ‘but they knew his death was a release. Archibald was born in Sydney, Austra- lia, and was about 42 years of age at the time of his death. He came to this city frem the antipodes in 188, bringing Abe Willis, the feather-weight fighter, wh}) subsequently and while under Archibald’s management Jlost in _three rounds to George Dixon in this city. Archibald had charge of the billiard- fooms of the Occidental Hotel for a time and then went in with Charles Kin, Y. who conducted poolrooms on Leide: f street. He had been interested in this business in Australia. While with Kings- ley he accumulated about $40.00 and Aln 1891 began booking at the Bay District track. In 1892 he was ruled off for an al- leged irregularity, but was reflnstfltedvlu 1894 through the influence of James Neil and went to booking again. He became assoclated with Bart Cavanaugh, the well known sporting man of Sacramento. Archibald’'s name was also well known in Chicago, where he had a representative. Early in 190 the bookmaker began to show signs of mental unsoundness and was confined in a sanitarlum. He was pronounced cured six months later and released, but took up his old life agaio, which brought complete madness. During the first week of January, 1901, Archibald was taken to the Receiviy Hospital, a raving maniac. It was nec- cssary to put him Into a straightjacket and he tossed and screamed in the delir- ivm of madness. He imagined he was on the racecourse in the stress and ex- citement of the sport that made him fin- ancially, then ruined him. He presented & deeply pathetic sight, a sad climax to a life in which nerves were strained until they broke, where mental and physical natures were taxed by excitement and dissipation until they collapsed. 5 The insane bookmaker was committed to the State Hospltal for the Insane at Stockton on January 5, 1901 i Arckibald was married in this city and his wife, Marjorle Aechibald, survives him, as does a brother, Pat Archibald, aiso a resident of San Francisco. Bart Cavanaugh was appointed guardian of the insane bookmaker's estate, worth about $15,000 or $20,000, and the income has gone to Mrs. Archibald. e ‘Hotel Thief Still at Work. The fire escape burglar who entered the Palace Hotel and got away with prop- erty of several guests last Saturday night is still plying his trade with fair success. Some time Thursday night he gained an entrance, supposedly by way of a fire es- cape, to the apartment of Captain W. W. Greene of the steamer Nippon Maru at the California Hotel and stole a ‘watch nd chain and $55 in coin. Captain Greene slept soundly during the burglar's visit and did not learn of his losses until aroused next morning. The capiain val- ues his watch and chain at $500. In one of the pockets of his coat there was a wallet contalning several hundred dollars which the burglar overlooked in his hur- ried search. It is believed that the thief also visited the adjoining rooms occupied by Charles Elliott, for on the morning following the robbery Mr. Elliott found his window open and his clothes scatteéred about the room. —————————— - Smathers Coming West.

RATCLIFFES WM CHAMPIONGHP Brother and Sister Are Experts on Tennis Courts. A large gathering witnessed two' tour- | nament matches on the Golden Gate Park | tennis courts yesterday afternoon. The final of the mixed doubles tournament re- sulted in a victory for the Ratcliffes—Miss | Ethel and Walter—of Berkeley. In the semi-finals of the men's handicap tourna- ment Fred Adams, with a handicap of | “fifteen,” beat George Janes. Although the Ratcliffes won three straight sets the match was close. The score was 6-2, 97, 6-4. Miss Varney and G. W. Finch received a handicap of “ones ) sixth of fifteen,” which did nof affect the | match in the least. In the second set | Miss Varney and Finch had a lead of 5-2 and 49-0, but were unable to win the one | pofnt that would have given them the set. At another time when the score stood 54 | and 40-30 they needed but onme point to | win. The Ratcliffes played a steady game and were a trifle too strong for their op- ponents. Walter Ratcliffe used fine judg- ment and was particularly strong at the | net. Fred Adams played a remarkable game | for a beginner. He received a handicap of “fifteen” from George Janes and won handily. The score was 6-3, 36, 6 Adams has shown the most remarkable improvement seen in years. He is but a | beginner, but already has a fine style and good strokes. Janes was at his best, but | did not have a chance with the handicap | he allowed. Adams was allowed the same handicap in the last tournament and cut no figure. In this tournament he beat | Dunlap, Griffin and Janes, three of the best players on the park courts. In the finals to-day Adams will meet the | winner of the Allen-Hotchkiss match. Allen will play Hotchkiss and give him | odds of “two-sixths of fifteen and owe one-half of fifteen.” Lowell High School defeated the Tam- alpals Academy on the California Club | morning.
