A. J. Leonard's New Yacht,
El Sueno, Ready to Be
Launched.
HAS THREE DIFFERENT RIGS'
It Wilt Race as a Sloop, Cruise as
a Yawl, and Has an
Engine.
Commodore J. A. Leonard of the Enci
•bal Yacht Club has just completed a new
yacht, which will be launched this morn
ing from the bay shore near the headquar
ter* of the club at Alameda. The design
is Mr. Leonard's conception, and he and
many other nautical experts expect the
new boat to revolutionize yachting on this
bay.--
The lines of the boat are very peculiar,
: though patterned something after the crack
yacb/ts of the Eastern States and England.
The peculiarities of Commodore Leonard's
boat are most noticeable in its interchange
able- rig. It will race as a sloop, cruise as
.^."ya'wl and if on the bay when a calm
: ; tomes on it will be transformed into a naph- j
; lha : launch.
; ; ; El-.Sueno (the dream) is the name of the
lie w craft. It is really a centerboard sloop
.. Vi'th auxiliary power, consisting of a |
COMMODORE LEONARD'S NEW YACHT EL SUENO.
{Sketched by a "Call" artist.]
. three-cylinder naphtha engine and a two- |
;• blade propeller. I
The engine is of an entirely new design j
. iby .Commodore Leonard, as are the general
lines of the boat. The propeller is so ar-
Tajjged that it can be lifted out of the
ivater while the boat as a naphtha launch is ,;
Bibvirig through the water, and it will ■
then be transformed into a fast-sailing |
Blo'op yacht. A jigger can be placed in the
stern, and the sloop will take the appear
anre of a yawl. It is expected that the
new yacht will beat anything of its size on
the bay owing to its modern improvements.
.As a "launch it is expected to make about I
five and a half knots with eight horse
power.
EF Sueno is 51 feet over all, 36 feet on |
-the water line, 15 feet 4 inche3 beam, 3 feet j
6 inches draught. The boat will have a !
5000-pound iron keel, a 2000-pound iron j
ceriterboard, the machinery, which is all I
below the water line, will weigh ltiOO j
jibuhds and the boat will have inside bal
jast in addition. El Sueno will carry a
large amount of sail over the average of
: boats of her size. Nearly 22.30 square feet
. pf canvas will be placed on her masts, and j
.; it ;.is believed she will be able to carry it all. ]
.TJie mast has been made a 60-foot stick ; |
: the ma,in boom is 40 feet long, the gaff 26 |
"•feet; the leech of the mainsail 55 feet and \
■ ■the hoist 32 feet. The bowsprit is 18 feet ]
. : outward. The mast sets 17 feet inboard.
: V The lines of El Sueno (pronounced
flwiinyo) seem very odd, especially to
; j?ichtsmen of this coast. When in the |
'water her bows will appear blunt, but her i
lines extended on paper show that she has !
. i : sharp entrance. "\\ hen upon the bay El \
JSu^no will be seen to have a long, full |
overhang forward and a long, lean over- j
hang aft. El Sueno is expected to reach ,
And run well, but in windward work her
speed is a matter of conjecture, owing to ;
her lack of forefoot. However, she will j
settle a long-disputed question as to j
whether a lack of forefoot is an advantage >
or a disadvantage in windward work.
Some believe that a full forefoot is neces-
Ea.ry to keep a boat's head up to the wind, ■
T.'hile others maintain tluit this advantage <
l> overcome by the beating of waves against {
the forefoot.
The three-cylinder engine is of a peculiar !
design, and was made to order from plans !
drawn by Commodore Leonard. The ap- !
|>.ji.Cation'of the engine is new, as it acts j
djrefctlv upon the shaft. The propeller ;
"shaft has two ball and socket joints. The:
propeller drops into the water over the !
•rudder, and is held in place when down by i
a: folding brace, which when not in use is i
placed flat up against the counter. The j
engine can be started from the main cabin, i
theivalves and reverse gear being con
trolled from the cockpit.
The novel and up-to-date designs are not
confined to the lines and machinery of the
boat.-: The interior finishings excel those
of any boat on the bay. Space has never
been so well utilized. There is a double
stateroom forward, the galley and a gaso
line stove are on the port side and a retir
ing-room is on the starboard side.
In the main cabin there are four double j
bi:nks. The bunks are arranged to close |
lik« the upper bunks in a Pullman car.
Wkn up there is exposed an upholstered
Beat and back. Notwithstanding this, all
the berths have wire mattresses of the
ordinary width of a double bed, 4 feet 4
inches. The cabin is paneled with lin
custra Walton and plate-glass mirrors.
Oil paintings and a neat sideboard com
plete the interior of the cabin. Ingenious
devices for storage have been used by Com
modore Leonard. These consist of a set of
long drawers which slide under the after
deck.
Thia is not Commodore Leonard's first
attempt at boat building. The fleet Little
Annie, a 23-foot sloop, was also made by
him. He was the first man to conceive |
the interchangeable system of sail and
Bteatn used in El Sueno. although two
other persons began building boats on the
(same fine after El Sueno was commenced.
The launch of El Sueno will take place !
at 9 o'clock this morning, under the aus
pices of the Eucinal Yacht Club, and the
members intend to make it a big affair. A j
full band of music will be in attendance \
and addresses \v ill be made by four mem- I
bers. The ceremonies will be connn
by the raising of the club burgee. E. J.
Holt, president of the organization, will
make the opening remarks. As the rlag of
the commodore is raised, that official, J.
A. Leonard, will deliver an address. When
j the name flag goes up, George T. Wright
i will speak on "The Yacht, Its Owner and
Its Crew." The American yacht ensign
will be the last to go up, and Dr. C. L.
j Tisdale is expected to deliver a screaming
; spread-eagle speech. An original poem by
| the club poet, Harvey Darneal, will be re
cited. Then will come the launch, cheers,
and the Encinal Yacht Club will have a
new boat, the performances of which will
be eagerly watched by the yachtsmen of
the bay. . ♦
THE ENOINAL CLUB.
Preparations for the Swmmer Season.
The Organization Has a »w
Name.
The members of the EncinalYacht Club
are now prepared for the opening season,
and are looking forward to a most enjoy
able summer. The election of officers was
held recently and the programme for the
yachting season has been issued.
Increased interest has been aroused
among the club members and some ex
tensive improvements are to be made to
the clubhouse ard general headquarters,
■which are the finest of any yachting club
on the bay. At the end of the 1000-foot
wharf where the clubhouse and bathhouse
stand there have been recently constructed
a swimming inclosure, a diving-tower,
springboards, chutes and a toboggan slide.
The slide declines 50 feet and the cars rush
the bathers and dump them into the bay.
Plans are now being made for an annex to
the clubhouse. The improvements will
cost $2000. The annex will be immediately
north of the clubhouse and will be 'JSxVO
feet in size. It will contain a double bowl
ing alley, billiard and pool tables, shuffle
board and athletic appliances. A large
old-fashioned fireplace will be at the end of
the hall. The general bathhouses will be
i in the rear of the annex.
The enterprise shown by the leading
members of the club has made it fashion
able in Alameda. The membership is re
stricted to 125, and at present the number
of members is 105. All of them are pro
fessional and business men of this city
"who reside in Alameda and Alamedans
proper. The club is now represented by 23
yachts and the members own fourteen
rowboats, mostly "WJiitehalls, and a large
number of canoes. The once notorious
| smuggling yacht Emerald is one of the
Encinal Club fleet. It is now owned by
E. K. Taylor, City Attorney of Alameda,
Stanley Stephenson, a prominent business
man, and a few others.
The entertainments given by the Encinal
' Yacht Club are diversified. Besides yachting
| races and cruises canoe racing, swimming
j contests and general athletic exercises
'. there is a social programme, which has
been greatly improved upon this year. It
has been the custom of the club directors
to give moonlight dances at the clubhouse
during the winter, but this year a summer
I programme, as well as one for the winter,
i has been arranged.
The yachting programme for the season
has just been issued. It is a long one, run
ning from April 27 to October 20. The pro
i gramme includes two regattas; a free-for
| all race; cruises to San Mateo, Petaluma,
San Ratael, Martinez; a hunting cruise to
Alviso in October, and a clambake at San
Mateo beach in September. Nothing has
been set for the 4th of July, but the club
i will undoubtedly have a big event on that
day. The full programme is as follows:

THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, APRIL 6, 1895.
NOT AN OUTSIDERS' DAY
The First and Second Choices
Ahead in the Differ
ent Races.
QUIRT WAS IN GOOD LUCK
The Two- Year -Old Race Was a
Cake -Walk for |Rey el
Bandidos.
Starter Ferguson experienced consider
able trouble in dispatching his fields yes
terday, and it was nearly 6 o'clock before
the red flag sent the field away in the last
race. His starting was good with one ex
ception, and that was the six-furlong handi
cap, when he tired himself, the horses and
spectators, and finally swished the red flag
after nearly forty minutes' delay to a start
that was several meters from good.
In marked contrast to Thursday the
favorites fared very well yesterday, the
first or second choices in every instance
getting the money.
The racing was uneventful with one ex- \
ception, and that was the decision of the
judges in the fourth race, the six -furlong
handicap, when they placed Quirt first.
When erecting the stands the press was
evidently considered a nuisance by the
management that could not well be obvi
ated, and the press-stand was nailed on to
a supporting pillar, which affords one
about as clear a view of the finish of a race
as looking for the mountains and valleys
in the planet Mars without a telescoDe.
Taking into consideration all of these
disadvantages, it seems a rather bold asser
tion to say that a judge of James Howe's
experience erred in placing a horse, but
great men in positions more lofty than he
occupies have erred before him, and I am
not alone when I say that I think he made
an error in placing Quirt ahead of Playful,
for every one in the press-stand was of the
opinion that the daughter of Jim Brown
won by a head, and it often happens that
two heads are better than one. However,
Quirt got the money, and Playful being an
outsider there was no "'roar." ■ .
Mount Carlos was backed down from 25
to 1 to eights, and Addie M was backed
down also to win the opening event at five
furlongs; but both tips went astray, for
the favorite, Alaric, took the lead after
passing the half, and won easily by a
length from Martinet, who was not in the
hands of the "undertakers" yesterday.
Addie M was third, a head away.
Carr delayed the start in the two-year
old race until he got the best of it, and
then the flag fell. Joan had been backed
down from threes to 8 to 5, but the Jong
delay killed her chances and she was never
in it. Carr got away first with Key el
Bandidos and galloped in a length and a
half in front of Marionette, who made a
fine run from the rear. The Extract filly,
away poorly, made an excellent run, fin
ishing a good third.
Arctic, supposed to have been a "cold
one" in a former race, landed the coin very
cleverly in the third event, a race for
"yaller dogs" and "crabs." Starting a 11
to 5 favorite he got away from the post
fourth, assumed the lead in the stretch and
won by a head from Raindrop, the second
choice. Myron, who led most of the way,
was a bang-up third.
The handicap at six furlongs looked so
close on paper that there was little to
choose from in the odds, Arnette having a
slight call as they went to the post. Don
Fulano, Quirt, Circe and Jack Richelieu all
had fours against them, Playful being the
rank outsider.
Circe led ail the way, being* followed into
the stretch by Playful and Quirt, the three
racing heads apart down , the , stretch and
to the wire. Quirt was placed first, Playful
second and Circe third.
Backed from threes to 11 to 5, Nick Hall's
speedy mare Sweet Alice made her field
look like "cattle." . After getting away
sixth, she shot to the front and won easily
by three lengths. CMC, the 2-to-l favor
ite, was «a hammered out second, two
lengths in front of Nellie G.
With Harry Griffin up, Road Runner
went to the post an 11 to 5 favorite for the
last race of the day, a short six-furlong
run. Boreas and Commission divided
honors for second choice in the betting,
each having fours against him at post
time. The Duchess of Milpitas and How
ard also received some support at comfort
able odds.
Away from the post fourth, Boreas took
the lead at the far turn and was never
headed, winning easily by three lengths
from Commission, who made a fine run,
getting away absolutely last. The Duchess
of Milpitas was a good third.
One of the features of to-day's card will
be the mile and a quarter handicap, and I
certainly will not curry favor with the
handicapper when I say that I think

Theodore Winters, the Nevada turfman,
was a spectator at the races yesterday.
Chevalier rodej two winners and was
second twice.
Ed Purser backed Mount Carlos down
in the first race and played Circe to win
the handicap.
By Holly whip-sawed the third race,
playing Arctic to win and Raindrop for
the place. .> . W
. Addie M was backed down from 15 to 8
to 1 in the first race. *
Primanda was another good thing that
went wrong after being played down from
40 to 10 to 1 to win the third event.
Jim Neil would have owned several
bookmakers' stands had his colt Jim Budd
won. He was backed down from 75 to 15
to 1.
Thirteen bookmakers were doing busi
ness yesterday, Troy and Oliver once more
"cutting in."
Better ridden, Ricardo would have been
a dangerous factor in the third race.
Bob Isom did not use j very good judg
ment in trying to squeeze through on the
inside with Arnette. The filly's chance
was virtually ruined by the start.

DR. BUCKLEY'S DISCOVERY
The Arrest of the Decay of
Matter by Steriliz
ation.
How Fish, Fruit, Meats and An
cestors May Be Pre-
Two rockcod were served in the Bo
hemian Club a few days ago which had
been just fourteen days out of the water.
They had been kept on ice, yet they were
as fresh as the hour they were caught.
The dish was garnished with watercress,
green and juicy, which had been exiled
just the same period from the parent
earth. The piece de resistance was a leg
of mutton, whose age was just four week?
and three days, and the dessert was a bunch
of grapes, the last of the season, whose
separation from the vine was identical in
days and hours with the mutton, and a
bunch of over- ripe bananas, but the meat,
cress and fruit were as fresh and palatable
as the fish. $£ -
■The solut ion of this strange instance of
the arrest of decay is the result of an in
vention by Dr. C. Buckley, which has
been patented in this and in all the coun
tries of Europe and Asia. Briefly and
simply it is the discovery of a process by
which air and water may be sterilized.
The air is first sterilized and then forced
into the sterilizing it and destroy
ing all its germs. The apparatus with
which these experiments were made con
sists of a small tank of water, a tube lead
ing from the tank to an air pump, and a
glass bulb in the center of the tank con
taining certain chemicals which destroy
the germs in the passage of the air to the
water.
The doctor's intention is to apply it to
fruitcars, which he will fill with sterilized
air, nor is it necessary for the car to be her
metically sealed ; to the household water
tank and to meats, vegetables and every
thing that is perishable. To the epicure
this invention will open a grand field for
novel delicacies. He will get his Oregon
pheasant and prairie chicken as fresh as
the day it was snot, his pond mullet from
Honolulu and his golden plover from
Hawaii, his goose from Canada, and with
the tlavor unimpaired by freezing, which
is a destroyer of those nice qualities which
thrill the palate with most enjoyable sen
sations.
This pasitive proof that decay may thus
be arrested suggests the most astonishing
possibilities. If a fish and a leg of mutton
can be preserved for an indefinite period
of course the human may also retain his
mortal shape for all time. In this new
land, where ancestors are such a rarity,
the wealthy will abandon the cold and men
dacious portrait and the picture gallery of
the future will be supplanted by a vast
mausoleum.
The devoted husband, the bereaved
lover, the parent robbed by death of his
adorable child, will have the consolation
of beholding them as they appeared in life.
They will never grow old. The octoge
narian may totter feebly to the case where
reposeful and serene in her white gar
ments lies the love of sixty years back,
still wearing the semblance of youth.

Paine's Celery Compound the One Spring Remedy That
Makes People Well.
Physicians Prescribe It, Use It, and Advise People to Take It in Pref-
erence to Anything Else in April and May, Because It Purifies
the Blood, Feeds the Brain, and Strengthens the Nerves.
Paine's celery compound is not a patent
medicine.
No class of professional men are more
conservative, more careful in giving ad-
vice, or more painstaking in finding out
the real facts of a case than physicians.
Their recommendation in matters with
which they are conversant is trustworthy.
When physicians of known repute not only
prescribe and use, but also bring home
Paine's celery compound for their families,
there can be no doubt of its high standing
in the eyes of medical men in general.
This is what busy, successful practition-
ers are doing these spring days all over the
country.
Paine's celery compound is prepared, as
they all well, know, from the formula of the
foremost physician of this century, Prof.
Edward E. Phelps, M.D., LL.D., of Dart-
month medical school. Among medical
men there is an absolute certainty as to just
what Paine's celery compound is capable
of doing. The careful record of the vast
number of cases where it has made people
well has been published in the medical
journals of the country.
Paine's celery compound stands to-day as
the one thoroughly authenticated remedy
for weakness and debility aue to malnutri-
tion of the nervous system and impure
blood.
This hard-working, earnest class of pro-
fessional men have never been slow in ac-
cepting Paine's celery compound.
They declare that it gives the tired body
every possible cbar.ce to get back to a
healthy condition. It cures nervous weak-
ness, heart palpitation, general lack of
strength and all forms of weakness; rests
and restores the jaded, fatigued brain and
nerves, because it for the abnor-

mal waste of these parts by an unusually
prompt supply of appropriate nerve food.
It purifies the blood, as nothing else can do.
If every man and woman plagued with
frequent headaches, and every business
man made anxious by pain at the base of
the brain and neuralgia twinges, would
take Paine's celery compound the world
would be lightened of a vast deal of misery
that ought never to be borne.
The most advanced medical thought of
the latter quarter of the nineteenth century
has prepared Paine's celery compound to
meet and overcome these troubles that are
due to ill-fed, ill-regulated nerves and poor,
thin blood.
N. N. Leaueard, M.D., of Charlestown,
Mass., whose portrait appears above, one
of the ablest physicians in the Boston dis-
trict, a man of character and influence,
says :
"After using Paine's celery compound
for four or five years in my general prac-
tice I can cheerfully recommend it. For
catarrh of head or stomach, for instance, it
acts like a charm. For women in many
cases it is a blessing. For chronic rheuma-
tism it does give relief. Torpid liver, gen-
eral debility, constipation, pains in
stomach und loss of appetite it relieves and
is the best of remedies in general nervous
prostration. I recommend it to many of
my patients, believing, as I do, in its real
merits. I believe it a public blessing to in-
valids, and, as yet, not fully appreciated."
J. C. Flynn. M.D., a well-known Michi-
gan physician, is but one of hundreds who
prescribe Paine's celery compound because
it cures. Writing from Warren in that
State he says: "I use the Paine's celery
compound freely in my practice as a nerve
tonic, blood purifier. and general tonic in
all debilitated conditions of the system. I
find it a fine thing for patients recovering
from the grip, especially old people."

! sands, says: "I have used Paine's celery
| compound personally with much benefit.
j I prescribe it with excellent results."
J. H. Thomas, M.D., 320 Liberty street,
i Pittsburg, Pa., says: "For several months
i I had been suffering from rheumatism. I
bad taken all the usual remedies with no
real benefif. 1 took one bottle of Paine's
celery compound and found myself much
improved. The second bottle is nearly
gone and I consider myself cured."
W. W. Hibbard, M.D., of Poultney, Vt.,
writes : "I was run down from repeated
attacks of the grip, and my stomach, bowels
and kidneys were out of order. I had no
strength, energy or ambition to think or
act. and was excessively nervous and irrit-
I able. After taking the lirst bottle of
Paine's celery compound I felt better. The
i third bottle restored me to my usual health
and strength, and I feel ten years younger
than before."
Dr. William Brown of Fredonia, Kans. :
"It has wonderfully improved my general
health."
W. Allen Hubbard.M.D., Boston, Mass..
writes: "I have prescribed the remedy in
a number of cases where the blood was im-
poverished and the nerves weakened. The
results have been so satisfactory that I do
not hesitate to indorse Paine's celery com-
pound."
Similar testimonials literally by hundreds
might be quoted. The high scientific attain-
ments of A. Livezey, A.M., M.D., of Yarley,
Pa., has made his statements authority on
matters pertaining to health. He gives his
personal experience, how he was cured of
sleeplessness. J. W. Ferguson, M.D., of
Thayer, Kans., tells how it has cured him
of dyspepsia, etc., etc. The sum total of
the testimony of such men as these, as well
as of the more celebrated physicians whose
letters have been previously published in
these columns, is that P.aine's celery com-
j pound makes people well !
