RED CROSS DAY
AT THE RACES
Despite Rain, There Was
a Big Crowd.
THREE FAVORITES FIRST
SPRYLARK, A 20 TO 1 CHANCE,
DEFEATED FIG LEAF.
Rey Hooker Proved Too Fast for The
Fretter — Rey del Tierra and
San Mateo Handy
Winners.
The benefit tendered the Red Cross So
ciety by the California Jockey Club and j
the Pacific Coast Jockey Club at Oak-|
land trmk yesterday was a bumping on*, |
even though the elements were in a di>»
exuntled state of mind. It rained In
tiy throughout the afternoon, but!
ct did not serve to keep the faith-
I . away, for fully 2000 people witnessed
the racing, and nearly *lsw must have
been netted tor the society. The card I
■was not an ambitious one, being coin
yosed entirely of cheap selling events.
sidering the scarcity oi riding tal
ivoritea performed better than was
ted, taking three of the six events.
Twelve books laid good fat prices in the
. — ana nearly ail quit tne uay a trine t
to the bad.
Thomas H. "Williams Jr. presided In the
stand, with J. W. Brooks as associate.
L»iok Havey'a starting was all thai could
be desired.
The J. H. Shields & Co. entry, Fig Leaf,
was a piping warm choice for the open
ing five ana a half furlong scramble, but j
failed to connect. Alter leading into the
stretch the mare was collared and easily j
beaten out by the 2U to 1 shot, Spry .Lark,
ridden by Bennett- The well-played Bar.
Nato nnished third.
The taient figured, and with i marked
degree of success, that The Frett^r could
not negotiate the sloppy going, and alter
opening a 4 to 5 choice for the two-year
old event, his odds receded to 3 to 5. The
Brutus youngster was headed the entire j
live funongs and defeated, without ef- i
tort, by Key Hooker, an i to 1 snot in I
the ring. Jennie Reid, the second choice,
lan third.
The crowd could not be induced to
touch Imp. Mibsioner, the 4 to 5 favorite,
lor the nurd number, a six turlon.j lun,
and with Plggott in the -.addle ne was
always in the lead, and won hands Ocwn
lrom Ping, a 10 to 1 outsider.
Speculators thawed out a bit when bet
ting began on the mile and sixteenth
purse artair, but only momentarily. .Los
ir'rietos held sway at odds of 5 to 2, but
was only lightly supported. Bitter Root,
the entry of 11. L. Frank, showed prom
inently when the bend fpr home "wia
reacned, but was outfooted and beaten
rather handily by Key del Tierra; with
Iviacklin up, against which 4 to 1 was
laid. The first choice finished in the
show.
In the six furlong sprint that followed
San Mateo, equal iavorite in thy ni.tjoi
ity of books with Sly, made all the run
ning and with pounas to spare ice! Lady
A.-i:ity cut by three lengihs. Sly fan
ished third, a short head tarther away.
The final live and a half furlong tour,
the second part of the split rt-vti race,
went in tue favorite, Major Coo.c, with
Howard a comfortable secjni, two
lengths ahead of The Dragon.

Hot Fighting Before the Reliance
Club— McDonald and Willie a
Draw — Williams' Game
Attempt.
Oakland Office San Francisco Call,
908 Broadway, May 27.
Amidst cries f>t "Call it off, " "That's
enough," and "You'll have a dead man
there In a minute" Police Captain Carson
stepped to the ropes and stopped the
flght between Hugh Dougherty of Chi
cago and Frank Schouler of the San Fran
cisco Athletic Club to-night in the eighth
round. The battle had been hot , and
swift. Dougherty was manifestly out of
condition and Schouler had made him a
chopping block in the last three rounds.
Dougherty was game, but life had a
Berious side for him at that moment, and
the coming of Captain Carson was not un
welcome. James Fox refereed the bout,
but all blows looked alike to him and he
was loudly criticized for overlooking
serious fouls made by Schouler.
Joe McDonald of the California Swim
ming Club and Ed "Willie of the Klondike
Club of Sacramento fought six bloody
rounds of swift fighting to a draw.
Al Emory of Australia and Emil Dahl
of the California Swimming Club boxed
three tame rounds, and John Ennis of L..c
San Francisco Athletic Club, substituted
for Murnane, laid up with a broken band.
entered the ring at 128 pounds to meet
Tony Williams of the Reliance Club at
113 pounds. Williams gamely offered to
take the Frisco lad on.and do the best
he could. He lasted three game rounds,
and then went down and out, still try
ing to rise as Referee McKeever, who will
fight Jack Daly at the National Club next
month, counted ten.
PREPARING FOR THE IRISH FAIR
me Committees Rapidly Completing Preparations for the
Big Benefit.
TARA CASTLE, ONE OF THE MANY FEATURES.
The coming- Irish fair promises to be a success. Old Mechanics' Pavilion
•will be "old" Ireland itself when the doors of the fair swing open, If the plans
of the various committees are carried out. Among the features will be a
picturesque reproduction of Tara Hall, one of the famous landmarks of Ire
land, and within its walls the guests of the Knights of Tara will make merry.
Th^ responses to the requests to serve on the honorary advisory board of the
fair are pouring in most favorably, and all doubts as to its success are now
removed. At the meeting of the executive committee yesterday, Jeremiah
Deasv presiding, favorable responses were read from these gentlemen: Hon.
James D Phelan, Hon. Irving M. Scott, Mr. R. P. Doolan, Hon. P. J. Harney,
Hon. Tirey L. Ford, William R. Sherwood, Hon. J. H. Filcher, Colonel E. A.
Denicke Joseph A. Stulz, Hon. Niles Searls, Richard V. Curtis, E. P. Mogan.
J H Seawell. J. J. Donovan, Frank Conklln, Dr. M. J. Fottrell, James H.
Barry William M Bunker, Frank J. Murasky, Andrea Sbarboro, John H.
GradV Major William B. Hooper, C. H Crocker, Hon. Robert Ferral, William
Greer Harrison, Hon. James Leggett, Hon. J. J. Dwyer, Hon. C. L. Barrington,
John H. Spohn. H. Mulvihill, and others.
At the regular weekly meeting of the executive committee of the Celtic
Union in room 9, Phelan" building, it was decided to have a "tile" booth and a
booth where relics and '98 patriotic souvenirs could be sold by the ladles, and
the proceeds devoted to fitting up a Volfe Tone and a Robert Emmet hall in
the proposed Irish Societies' Hall, for the erection of which this Irish fair is to
be held next August. -._...__, ,_
Letters from ocean steamship companies, offering to bring over the soil and
turf from the "ould counthry" free of cost, were read and accepted by the com
mittee The Dublin, Limerick, Cork, Kerry, Queenstown and other Irish cities'
papers both daily and weekly, will be sold in the Pavilion during the fair,
and as' the boys run around the hall crying out the familiar names of th<?s©
publications, it will take many a visitor back to the days of yore. Messrs.
Seaman and Landis, the famous scenic artists of Chicago, whose beautiful
electric theater, known as "A Day In Ireland," was bo popular in the Chicago
Irish fair have offered to send it on here. It is now in Buffalo at the A. O. H.
Irish fair this week. It will be placed in the north end of the gallery and
will occupy a space about 50 by 10) leet.
It was decided to give a handsome prize to the Celtic Union organization
having the handsomest and most original designed booth ready on the evening
of August 20 (opening night) A prize equally as fine will be given to the so
ciety not a member of the union, for a similar purpose. One-half of the main
floor space was set aside for the Industrial exhibits of Ireland and California,
Messrs Murray, Conley, Davoust and Sizer were appointed solicitors on floor
space and to obtain advertising in a beautiful programme. Thursday nights
w-ere selected as regular meeting nights for the executive committee. Messrs.
Purcell & Sons of New York sent on some photographs of Irish and American
Bishops and clergy, and it was decided to have them, together with views of
Ireland and photographs of American and Irish patriots and of heroes of the
present war on sale. It was announced that four Irish societies had picked
out floor spaces for society booths. »nd that they would at once take up vie
matter of obtaining articles to sell therein.
The following ladies will soon meet and form the ladies' auxiliary commit
tee extending invitations to other ladies to join in the good work: Mrs. Mary
T Menton, Mrs. P. E. McCarthy. Mrs. F. B. Lorigan, Mrs. C. B. Flanagan,
Mrs H. Mulvihill, Mrs. J. J. Donovan, Mrs. C. S. Laumeisfer, Mrs. Mary A. Mur
phy of 129 Liberty street, Mrs. Nora Dwyer. Mrs. J. Deafly, Mrs. Frances G.
Ferral Mrs William B. Hooper, Mrs. L. W. Buckley and Mrs. E. P. Mogan.
TO AID THOSE
LEFT IN WANT
Citizens Will Relieve Sol
diers' Families.
A SOCIETY IS FORMED
IT WILL COLLECT FUNDS WITH
OUT DELAY.
Membership and Belief Dispensed
Will Be Limited to People
in San Fran
cisco.
At a meeting of representative citizens
at the Occidental Hotel dining rooms last
night the following committee was ap
pointed to see to a permanent local or
ganization for the purpose of rendering
aid to the families of soldiers who have
gone to Manila: Walter K. Dean. Tirey
L. Ford, Mrs. William Alvord, Mrs. Hor
ace Hill and Mrs. C. M. Kinney.
The meeting was called to order by
Major Hooper, who made an address in
which he called attention to the fact that
there was great need for such work as
that outlined by the Red Cross. He said
there would be a great deal of suffering
unless some definite aid should be ren
dered.
Judge Morrow was elected chairman of
the meeting, and it was then decided that
the society should be limited to San Fran
cisco wholly, the aid of certain Oakland
ladies being refused on the ground that
each city would be expected to take care
of its own sufferers.
Speeches on the subject were made by
Dr Stebbins, Rabbi Voorsanger, Tirey L.
Ford and others, after which the meet
ing adjourned to convene at the same
nlace again on next Monday night. Word
was received that more than $12,000 has
been collected at Honolulu for relief work,
and that the sum will probably be doubled
by the time the troops reach there.
It is the intention of the local society
to co-operate with the Red Cross, and
to do all the work within its power at
once There will be subscription lists
forthwith, and committees will solicit
funds without delay.

THE SAN FKAXCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, MAY 28, 1898.
THE BAY STATE HOTEL.
Splendidly Appointed and Justly-
Popular.
The Bay State Restaurant is not un
known tn the public of San Francisco,
but the Bay State Hotel is a new factor
in the restaurant life of the city, come
into existence as the result of a de
mand for increased facilities and great
er accommodations by reason of public
favor bestowed upon its proprietor, Mr.
Adler, who has long been known as one
of the leading caterers of San Francis
co. The half-dollar dinner furnished
by Mr. Adler has become famous and
is unequaled in quality and service in
many places for double the price. The
Bay State Restaurant has simply in
creased its facilities to meet the de
mand of a growing patronage. While
formerly occupying the ground floor of
the General Keys building, it now, un
der its new name, includes the entire
building, consisting of fcur spacious
stories and 110 rooms. These are divided
into suites for private dining and sup
per rooms, and are furnished in the
most handsome and comfortable man
ner. The furniture is of a rich pattern
and a piano is found in each suite, and
each has its private dining service. The
general effect gives an air of luxuriance
and good taste. An elevator conveys
the guests to each floor and the entire
house is lighted by electricity. There
are three entrances to the hotel— one
at No. 109 O'Farrell street, a ladies' en
trance at Iso. 17 Stockton street and a
general entrance at No-. 15 Stockton
street.
The proprietor, Mr. Max Adler, has
given his especial personal supervision
to each detail of this extensive cara
vansary, scr that everything in connec
tion with its management is as nearly
perfect as a liberal expenditure and
good taste can produce.
One of the most particular adjuncts
of an establishment of this kind is the
chef. He has much to do with build
ing up and sustaining the reputation of
a hotel. Mr. Adler has secured the ser
vices of a perfect treasure in this line
to take charge of his cuisine. Every
rarity and delicacy to be found in the
market undergoes his personal inspec
tion and is prepared under his watch
ful eye. The epicure knows what a
g-ood meal is, but does not always know
just where to procure it. Mr.Adlerisnot
an experimenter with people's stomachs
or other comforts. He is a veteran and
understands his business. He only asks
one visit from those who are fond of
luxuries to secure a continuance of their
custom. And with all, the patrons of
the Bay State Hotel will be astonished
at the reasonableness of the charge.
It is the enjoyment in the highest de
gree of luxuries at the most reasonable
rates. •
Fomer Failed to Appear.
Dr. W. 11. Forner failed to answer to
his name In Judge Joachlmsen's court
yesterday morning. Representing him
were Attorneys Allen, Grady, Gallagher
and Terry, and they individually and col
lectively explained to the Judge that For
ner was sick in bed. The police had infor
mation that he was drinking, and, after
a continuance was granted till next
Wednesday, the Judpe issued a bench
warrant for his arrest. Sergeant Mofflt
went with the warrant to the doctor's
residence but could not find him. The doc
tor is charged with betrayal under prom
ise of marriage by Miss Victoria C. Mar
tin.

As the days pass and the people awake
to the realisation of the importance of
such an institution in the present war

to grow upon the public. The total re
ceipts up to date amount to $JtO,7ID "5, and
are. steadily increasing.
Fifty regulars from Illinois arrived at
9:15 o'clock yesterday morning, and after
being breakfasted in the new depot at the

working on the lines of the Red Cross
bociety, yesterday afternoon obtained
permission from the colonel of the Idaho
regiment to erect a tent on the regimental
grounds, from which point they will be

the material provided. Ten thousand
more bandages are asked for. Flannel
and broad white tape are always in de
mand.
The French Hospital, through its vice
president, extended valuable aid to the
society in the hospital work at the Bay
District camp. A ward in the hospital
has been placed at the disposal of the
society for the sick, and countless other
favors have been accorded, for wmcu Hie
ladies are very gTateful.
The patriotic employes of the San Fran
cisco Postoffice have set fui example
worthy of imitation by other organiza
tions. They met in Judge Morrow's court
room last Thursday evening and proceed
ed to organize a Red Cross society. A. M.
Cox, superintendent of the city delivery,
was chosen as president; J. R. Rlnes, the
oldest carrier in the service, was elected
vice-president, D. S. Richardson secre
tary and E. A. O'Connor treasurer.
After many patriotic speeches, it was
unanimously resolved to contribute in the
neighborhood of *«W per montn to the
Red Cross cause as long as the war with
Spain shall last. This money will be de
ducted from the salaries of the employes
each month and forwarded to the Red
Cross headquarters.

GROWLS THAT FOLLOW
THE BENCH SHOW.
The show is over, but not the work of
the bench show committee. The secre
tary has a particularly fine and large
Job on hand— he Is at present busy mak
ing out the checks wherewith to pay the
prizes. The accounts have not yet been
balanced, but from present appearances
It Is a moot question whether the San
Francisco Kennel Club will not have to
face a deficit. The rain on the closing
night played havoc with the receipts and
rendered all calculations nugatory. The
best that can be hoped for is a surplus
of a couple of hundred dollars, and that,
if it be proved to exist, will go to the
Children's Hospital.
The Judge of the show, Mr. George E.
Bell, has signed a contract for five years
with Emmett Sullivan of Menlo Park to
undertake the charge of the latter's ken
nels. There can be no doubt that Mr.
Sullivan has dune a very clever stroke
of business, for Mr. Bell's long kennel ex
perience should render his services In
valuable to his employer.
Mr. Bell has engaged Frank Robbins
to act as his secretary and assistant gen
erally.
Mr. Christenson's protest against the
winning of the bull terrier, Rastus, is lla
able to prove futile, as far as the San
Francisco Kennel Club is concerned.
Mr. Taits, under whose name Rastus
was entered, is able to show a clean bill
of sale for the dog, bearing date of April
20, and this settles the protest, as far as
the San Francisco Kennel Club is con
cerned. Any further contest must be
laid before the American Kennel Club for
decision.
The facts of the case, as developed
since the filing of the protest, show that
the arrangement for the loan of Mr.
Christenson's stud dog, Imp. Woodcote
Venom, to Mr. Foley, was made by Mr.
O'Brien of the Palace Hotel, and that
the pup agreed on, as the price of the
stud dog's service, was duly delivered to
Mr. O'Brien. This seems to remove all
doubt as to the legality of Rastu*'
awards, but Mr. E. S. Heller, Mr. Chris
tenson's adviser, is a stubborn fighter,
and it is beyond peradventure that he will
carry the matter for decision to the su
preme tribunal of the American Kennel
Club.
Mr. Heller's own bitch. Torpedo, has
been disqualified for deafness. By this
disqualification Mr. Folger's Fly takes the
first prize in open bull terrier bitches, and
Mr. Clinton E. Worden's Lady Jane the
second prize. It is due to Mr. Heller
to state that he advised the kennel club
of the bitch's deafness when he made
the entry. Not the slightest reflection
can therefore be cast on him.
