IT WAS A VERY ORDINARY CARD. Dumps and Upsets That Kept the Talent at the Track Guessing. TRIX TOOK ANOTHER RACE. Mainstay Beat a Good Field of Mud-Larks in the Last Race. Many of the prizes offered at thcßay I District track yesterday were in the betting ring, and not on the card. The track was Bloppy, but very fair time was made in the j different events. Taking everything into I consideration, picking winners was not ! difficult, but there have been times when ; it was easier. Yesterday was "cut-in" day with the bookmakers, thirteen going on. Among the absentees was George Wbee lock, who dallied with the bangtails on ! the ground, along with the rest of the { talent. George broke about even on the game, and after giving them about a week's trial on the outside will depart for the East. Lucky Dog seems to have a hard time getting a race, for all scratched in the six furlong handicap yesterday but the son of i .Parebin, and of course it had to be de- | clared off, the fourth race being split to complete the card. The sport began with the downfall of a j favorite, Sallie Calvert, the tirst choice, with 8 to 5 against her, finishing behind lorn K van's Fly, the second choice, who led all the way and won easily, running \ the hve furlongs in 1 :(«»£. Raphael, who j carried Riley Grannan's money, finished third. The second run had for starters War rago, Annie Moore, iload Runner, Tobev, .Rogation and Faro, the first half of the divided fourth race. Road Runner, open ing at Ito 2, went to the post 2to 5. Faro opening at 8 to 1, was backed down to fours at post time, Riley Grannan having hi* checks down on the son of Prince of Nor i*Uk. Bookmaker Walter also played the nor.-o ;md promised Flynn $200 if he won \\ ell. he did, and "won a block." Getting away in front Road Runner could never pet near him, finishing second, five lengths behind. Wai rago was a good third in the Although won by one of the first choices the mile selling race was a sort of disap pointment, as old Hy Dy was expected to do better. The latter and Trix went to the post with Bto 5 against each. Eckert was backed down from 15 to 10 to 1, but looked at if he had been run through a gaspipe and showed no speed any part of the race. Arno, backed from 8 to sto 1, did much better, and, to my mind, were Tommy But ler a bit more experienced in the finishing line, the race would been his. As it was. after Lonnie B, followed by Trix, had led until well around the turn the mare fell tack and Trix led into the stretch with Arno the contending horse. In a drive through the stretch Sloane landed Trix winner by a head from Arno, with Hy Dv, ridden by Griflin, a poor third. Originally Terra Nova was entered in the mile run, but was scratched and very prettily added to the second half of the divided fourth race, carrying 100 pounds, a soft spot indeed. He went to the post 11 to 5 with Griffin up. Most of those that think they know something about the races played Arctic, getting 4 to 1 against their money. L'ittsbunr Phil put his sheckels on the cold trick, as the horses went to the post. After acting very nicely at thr post, Arctic became troubled with strange noises in his head, and buck- i lumping the reverse way of the track tried I his best to unseat Chevalier, but being un- I successful, again became docile and was led back to the post. But the backers of Arctic were not kept in suspense long, for Starter Ferguson dropped his flag to a start that wa« much more frigid for them than the name of the horse they played. Terra Nova was away first, followed by George L. and My Sweetheart, and Arctic a block further away. Of course he could not "et to Terra Nova, but Arctic passed the balance of the field, finishing second two lengths away. With a fair break he would certainly have won. What a vast quantity of good one race will do to a horse was evidenced in the ■! Sligo in the last race. On Wednes day, starting a pronounced favorite in a four-furlong race. Red Bird beat him hand ily. Yesterday, carrying the same weight, with 20 to 1 against" him. he finished sec ond to Mainstay and beat Red Bird away off. It was a lively betting affair^this race yesterday. Jack Richelieu opened with fours airainst him, but only for a short time. He linallv went to the post a7to 5 favorite, with Mainstay second choice at 12 to 5. Slijro followed by Grandee headed the ! bunch past the half with ' Mainstay a close \ attendant. At the far turn Mainstay took the lead, holding it throughout, passing ' the judges a length in front of Sligo, with Grandee third. Dave Gibson was fortunate in whij. sawing the race, and Riley Gran nan, who was in improved form, also landed a good bet on the big Mariner colt. Barney Schreiber intends leaving for the East about April 1 with his horses, but j judging from Barney's manner after the Just race, if acrobatic performances con tinue to be in order he may cut his de parture shorter.

GUNST'S IDEAS ON POLICE. He Would Like to Have Them as They Are in the East. Policemen Should Button Their Coats and Walk With Dignity. "I would have the policemen who patrol Market and Kearny streets and the other principal thoroughfares of this city as fine a body of picked" men as the Broadway squad of New York — the most celebrated force of police in the world," said Police Commissioner (Junst last night. "The sight of our principal streets guarded by a lot of large fine-appearing men who would stand erect, walk with dignity and show in the scrupulous neatness of their uniforms all the nicity of a crack mihtia regiment, would, I believe, produce a favorable im pression on Pastern visitors, which would be the best possible advertisement for our city. "As it is now many of our officers are somewhat untidy in their dress. They are permitted to wear their coats unbuttoned and flying loose instead of having them buttoned as is the rule in Eastern cities. Then, too many of them walk with a slouchy gait, which is by no means impos ing or dignified. "There are other changes, too, which, I think, should be made for the improve ment of the force. Now the sergeants wear no uniforms, and I believe that every member of the force, from the Chief down, I should be forced to wear the uniform when on duty. If the police are a well-trained bod v of men the sergeants can handle them well enoueh without having to sneak around in citizen's dress to spy upon them. "Under the present system it is almost 1 impossible for a citizen who may have a I complaint to make concerning an o&cer to ; find his superior without having him ! pointed out. This lessens the dignity of ' the force, and I disapprove of that. "Should the officers wear their clubs i outside their coatt>? Yes, I think so. ( That is done in nearly all the Eastern j cities, and there the service seems to be i more efficient. Whether it results from the j sisrht of the clubs or not, I do not know. "Speaking of uniforms, there is another : reason why they should be worn by all I om'cers when on duty. Under the present system the sergeants are given all the privileges of the detective force. As fliey are in citizens' dress, they may stand i around in doorways talking to gamblers or women of the world without attracting at tention, or' may enter saloons and drink I without violating the regulations, since they are not in uniform. No; if there is any work requiring plain-clothes men I favor having it done by the aetectives, in whoso department it properly belongs. "Another thing: At night now the of j fleers wear peajackets and ordinary over i coats over their uniform*, simply placing j the star upon the oufwide. ,Now, a star ! does not convey the idea of authority ' nearly so quickly as a uniform, and there j fore this system is bad. You remember • that Policeman Grant, for shooting whom Actor Curtis was tried, was not in uniform ' when he attempted to make the arrest." Commissioner Tobin. when informed of ' the views expressed by his colleague, did : not entirely agree with him. "The suggestions," he said, "are not entirely new, for we have discussed them iat different times during the past five i years. The sergeants were allowed to I wear citizens' clothes at the suggestion of the Chief and captains of police, because it was thought that thus they could more efficiently perform their duties. The idea I then was that they should not be made | conspicuous. "The men might be required to keep ! their coats buttoned, but to that it is • objected that during the very warm por tions of each day they would become over heated. Colds,* coughs and pulmonary troubles would follow, and our force.is now so small that we cannot afford to have any of the men laid up by illness. For that j reason we have allowed them considerable j latitude in the mode of wearing their i uniforms as well as wearing peajackets and overcoats during the nights. So far as wearing the clubs outside the coats is con cerned that would be a necessity if the coats were to be kept buttoned, as other wise they could not be easily reached when wanted. We have, however, endeavored to impress on the men that the club was given them only for defensive use and was designed to be used as sparingly almost as the pistol. "Lao not think it possible for us to or ganize a squad of picked men on the prin ciple of the Broadway squad. Under the present ordinance the men must be changed about all over the city during the course of a year. That was intended, of coufse, to prevent corruption of the force, but it operates to forbid the forming of any picked body of men. "I am inclined to see many good points in Mr. (jimst's suggestions, though I thinK that the Chief will not be disposed to agree with all of them." Baxter said that he put his entire re ligious experience and the whole of the Bible into the "Saints' Everlasting Rest." THE SAN FKAXCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, MARCH 23, 1895. SULLIVAN IS DANGEROUSLY ILL.

An Important Sill Before the JS'eu) York legislature. ALBANY, N. V., March 22.— The amend ed Grey-Percey racing bill was presented to the Assembly to-day. in the committee it has been changed in many respects. The most important provisions of the bill provide that hereafter there shall be a State Racing Commission, to be appointed by the Governor, and to consist of three men, no two of whom shall be members of the same racing association. The commission is to license associations and meetings under reasonable rules and regulations, which may, from time to time, be prescribed by the Jockey Club and the National Association. The commis sion is to have power to cancel'and revoke licenses. A tax of 5 per cent of tne gross earnings of the corporations enjoying the privileges of the bill is to be paid to the State. The bill provides that any person who makes or records a bet directly or indi rectly upon any racecourse shall forfeit the value of any money or property so waged, received or held by him, to be recovered in a civil action by the person or persons with whom such wager is made or by whom such money or property is de posited. The Ives pool bill and the Sax ton amendment were repealed. The bill will be made a special order some day next week. McAULIFFE Ji.VB OJtIFFO.

"Look here, oilicer," said an indignant citizen to a policeman in twenty-third street, "these beggars who creep up behind you and talk along at your side are grow inu more persistent and impudent than ever. What are you. going to do about them?" "Why, of comse,"the policeman replied, "we run 'em in whenever we see them accosting any one: but the trouble is that they work the racket so smoothly that it is almost impossible to say that they are beg ging when we don't see them stop any one.' 1 "Yes, yes, I understand that," said the citizen; "but what about belting those fel lows over the head?" "Well," said the policeman smiling. "I shouldn't advise you to do that, sir; those fellows are a pretty tough set. But I'll tell you one or two tricks that will bother them. If it's a rainy day you'll notice these fel lows always board you on the leeward or open side*. Now, as soon as any one of them is abreast of your shoulder throw your umbrella quickly over and shove the whole wet thing smartly into his face. Do this suddenly, and you'll find your beggar will j?ive up the chase in a twinkling, lor there are few things that I know that will phaze a man so quick as the big, round stretch of a dripping umbrella shoved into his face without a moment's warning. '•That's one way. Now, if it's dry weather and 3*ou have a walking stick, drop it down on the side the fellow is on and then throw the end out at angle, so that it will catch between his feet as he shuffles along. If you don't trip him you'll give him so much to attend to keeping clear of the stick" that he will very soon give up begging and drop behind. "Now, supposing you've got neither an umbrella nor a walking-stick. Then yon must do the double on him. Like this: As soon as the beggar begins to close up behind you, quicken your pace. He'll quicken his, too, and then as soon as you are both going it lively, stop short, turn quickly round nim from behind, and take up your walk on the other side at a fast gait. You'll be surprised to see how com pletely flustered this old schoolboy trick will leave him. "But supposing yon don't want so much exercise, try the simple plan of stopping, turning round so as to face him, and ask him plainly and in a good, clear voice, if he is begging. He's pretty sure to take a look round when you ask him this, and, while he is doing so, just walk quietly along and the chances are he'll not accost you again. "It seems an outrage, I know," the po liceman continued, "that people should have to dodge beggars in New York, but it's something to know how to do it." — New York Sun. • — * — • Coffee. There certainly is a system to follow in purchasing coffee. In America this is so frequently bought roasted (if not ready ground), that it is not always considered so. necessary to mention the principal points worthy of the housewife's ob servance, as it is on the Continent, where coffee is hardly ever purchased otherwise than in the raw Rtate, and one cannot help urging American housekeepers to roast and grind their own provision. It is much more satisfactory, and it seems a matter for wonder that more people do not pursue that co\me. There is no possibility of comparison between the flavor of the beans that are roasted, or, at any rate, ground at home, and those that are bought even in a so-called perfectly "fresh" state. Ask a general rule, it may be remarked, that the more even the beans the better the quality, which the best quality coffee has lighter beans than the inferior sorts. The best kinds of coffee are those coming from Mocha,. Syria and" Egypt — or at any rate, the sorts that go by the names of these countries; the beans are .small, have a bluish tint, and are rather round, but they are not common. Java coffee is much used on the Continent; it has a pleasant smell, and the beans are rather yellow, whereas the Porto Kico and Domingo coffee has a decided silvery tint. In France Mocha and Martinique are also favorites; the\- all do well without chickory. It is a mistake to use the latter or to be lieve that all French coffee naturally con tains the additional substance. It takes about twenty minutes to roust a pound and a half of coffee, but the easiest method is to buy one of the French roasters, in which the lamp contains just the right quantity of spirit to roast the contents of the machine to a nicety. It is a very easy operation and only requires to be done leisurely and evenly. When it is finished, the berries should be first turned out into a* wooden bowl or platter, and put immediately into the tin in which they are subsequently to be stored. This should only be done when they are quite cold. When roasted the coffee must be fragrant, dark brown and slightly moist. Turn it about in the bowl to cool it quickly, then transfer it without delay to an air-tight canister. Above all do not roast large quantities at once, and never grind more than is absolutely necessary for one meal, otherwise the flavor will be lost and the best quality of coffee will soon become insipid.

Columbus JT Frinery, Neb ■» — •■ — ■» A Soldier and a Footwarmer. Some singular things are recorded as hav ing happened yesterday between a soldier, a footwarmer, a locomotive and other roll ing stock on the Great Western line in the parts of Berkshire about Newbury. The sol dier and the footwarmer were traveling in the same compartment. There was, of course, nothing stronger than water inside the footwarmer; there may have been in side the soldier. Whether 'the foot Warmer did anything to him — boiled his boots o* froze them does not appear. But what the soldier did to the footwarmer was first to oast it forth into space. The space into which he cast it happened, at that particu lar moment, to be occupied by the locomo tive of another train. Irritated, but illog ical, the footwarmer seems to have struck the* locomotive for all it was worth. The locomotive retaliated. Thereupon the foot warmer went back to its own train for the soldier. In its eagerness to get at him it broke the handle off the carriage door, and the wrong carriage door at that. Failing the door it tried the window and the nerves of the lady who occupied the compartment. She screamed. The footwarmer recoiled, made a last desperate effort, broke another window and fell exhausted on the six-foot way. There it was presently picked up, weltering in some congealed fluid or other and battered almost out of recognition. What light the soldier may be able to throw upon this strange drama remains to be seen. — Pall Mall Gazette.
