A HOME FOR BACHELORS NOVEL SCHEME WHICH JOHN THINKS HIGHLY OF. Intends to Conduct an Apartment- House With Restaurant Attached, Though He Admits He Is Off on Cooking. John' L. Sullivan has decided to retire from the stage, at least he so stated last night, and will, after he has closed his present theatrical season, open a small hotel in New York on the "stag" plan, as he describes it. He says the theatrical profession in a lucrative sense Is a thing of the past, and that there is more money in renting rooms and looking after the comforts of bachelor sports In New York than there is in treading the boards and being responsible for the salaries of twen ty-six actors and actresses at the end of each week. "It is just this way," said John, "when I return to New York I am going to quit the stage for good, because thore i-s nothing doing. I have carefully considered a plan to run a hotel on the European plan for bach elors only. I will give them a room for a dollar a day and then If they want It I will have a restaurant in con nection with the place to give them a good breakfast in the morning for 50 cents. I am a little to the bad on -cooking myself, but I will get a swell chef who will give them a breakfasr for ,30 cent 3 that will skin the other restaurants to death. "I am out of politics for good and will give others a chance in that line, and will devote my whole time to the hotel busi- Just fancy the number of steamers that arrive in Now York in one week, and when the world knows that I have opened a hotel you bet I will get my share of transient guests." Sullivan leaves early this morning for Banta Cruz and regrets that he will be un to attend the Smith-Lavigne fight, which he states will be a great contest. He thinks it is a very even match, and OF" INTEREST TO BUYERS.

Immense Crowds at the Various Pleasure Resorts. The park and ocean beach swarmed with pleasure-seekers from early morn ing till long after nightfall last evening, and it would be hard to decide which por tion of the day was the most enjoyable. During the day, unless one sought the shelter of foliage, the sun was almost too warm for comfort, while at nifht the air was soft and balmy— such a day as rarely comes to San Francisco. Vehicles of every description filled the roadways, while the bicycle paths were fairly alive witii wheels. Four accidents marred the day and forcibly reminded the park police that a certain class of riders must be brought up with a short turn. On Sundays a certain class of young men and boys in vade the park on wheels and the minute they are out of sight of the police tney dash heedlessly along the paths, or coast down the grades to the imminent danger of pedestrians. There are ordinances r. sulating the speed of bicyclists and pro :g coasting in the park, and to tne credit of the clubmen and regular riaers they scrupulously respect the law, but with the casual riders it is different, and the accident to Mrs. W. B. "Webster is the result. At the Chutes another large crowd was gathered. The balloon ascension and parachute drop by Emil Markeberg be ing the principal attraction. The daring aeronaut cut loose when about 1000 feet above the ground and landed safely a short distance from the grounds. Sermon on Thomas Caxlyle. Rev. William Rader of the Third Con gregational Church delivered a sermon on •'Thomas Carlyle, a Calvlnistic Skeptic," last evening. Introductory to the sermon the speaker briefly reviewed the lives of other authors — Hume, Burns, Scott and Shakespeare— and compared the produc tions of their pens with the genius of Carlyle. Continuing he said: "This writer possessed a satirical vein extraneous to other authors. He became famous shortly after the appearance of his essays in Frasier's Magazine in 1838. In these he convinced people of his re formatory nature, and later in his sketches on the French revolution he laid the leaders of the French factions on the griddle, exposing their personal charac ters and the motives which prompted their action in the struggle. He was re ligious but was also skeptical. His views were always expressed with entire frankness and with little heed of the re sult. It is said that once while in the presence of Queen Victoria he remarked: "Pardon me if I sit, as I can always talk better while sitting." The speaker concluded by saying that it might be well if the shade of Carlyle could invade the halls of legislation at mento and teach a lesson of right eousness and honesty among the lawmak ers there assembled. Entertain Officers and Sailors. A most enjoyable time is anticipated at the "i'oung Men's Christian Association to-morrow evening 1 , when large numbers of cftioers and men of the United States battle-ship lowa will be entertained by the reception committee.

PATRICK'S DAY Song and Oratory the Features. CELTIC SOCIETIES INVITED FBOGBAMME FOR THE AFTER NOON ARRANGED. Eustace CulHnan. Will Recite an Original Foem During the Ex ercises at the Tivoli Opera House. The delegates of the United Irish socie ties met in convention j'esterday afternoon at Knights of the Red Branch Hall, on Mason street, to arrange for the celebra tion of St. Patrick's day on the 17th inst. John Barret, the president of the society, was in the chair.

Eustace Cullinan, who has the honor of being the poet of the occasion, was intro duced by Judge Ferral and received a hearty welcome. In a short but terse and witty speech Mr. Cullinan disserted upon the pride of the race and the real meaning of the annual celebration of St. Patrick's day. Other speeches were made, all upon the same subject. It was ordered that. invitations be sent to the officers of the Welsh and Scotch societies of this city. During the week the boys of the Youths" Directory will be given a trolley ride, commencing at 7 o'clock. The band of the Hebrew Orphan Asylum will furnish mu sic for the occasion.

ONLY A CALIFORNIA SUN COULD DO THIS CELLULOID IGNITED BY A GLASS CASE. gg fTJHE Fire Department received a shock yesterday about the noon hour m 0 I when an alarm came In from Taylor and Market streets. An excited $ m* I citizen saw a blaze seemingly coming from the center of the Wein- £* & •*- stock & Lubin dry goods store, and he rushed to the first fire box in the O 83 vicinity and began working the lever which costs the city a lot of money S 8 every time it is pulled. When the section of the department assigned to that § 0 part of the town arrived it hunted for evidences of a fire, and hunted in § *? vain. & ££ '-^ \ But there was a fire.

ARRESTED AFTER A FIGHT HARRY LEIGHTON CREATES A SCENE IN A HOTEL. Failing to Indue© Ethel Hall to Be come His Wife He Robs Her of Her Dia monds. Armed with a revolver Harry Lelghton, a well-dressed young man, last night vis ited the partments of Ethel Hall at the Silver State House on Mason street with the avowed intention of compelling her to marry him or making her a subject for j the Coroner. The fair Ethel was seated I on a lounge conversing wun two other women when the bloodthirsty youth en tered. Raising his revolver on a level with the young woman's head Leighton demanded to know if she had considered his proposition of marriage. "You cannot escape me this time," he remarked, with a tinge of anger in his tone. "Consent to become my wife or I will kill you." With a wild scream the thoroughly frightened woman rolled off the lounge, while her two companions ran from the room shrieking for help. The manager of the hotel, fearing that murder was being committed, hastened to the room to rind Leighton standing over the prostrate form of Miss Hall. As he entered the room Leighton , with an oath, turned his revolver on him after threat ening to riddle him with bullets unless he beat a hasty retreat. Thinking that the love-smitten youth would not hesitate to carry his threat into execution, the man ager went in search of a policeman. He soon discovered Officers Fennell and Wil son, who, after hearing the story, lost no time in reaching the hotel. Leighton had disappeared, but the woman was found lying on the floor of her room, momentarily fearing that he would return and kill her. To the officers the woman said that after her two friends had rushed from the room Leighton, who still covered her with the revolver, seized her left hand and dragged three rings from her fingers. He then left, after threatening to return j and murder her if she reported the oc currence to the police. After leaving the house Leighton went to a saloon on O'Farrell street, where he wrote a note to Miss Hall, demanding of ! her to meet him, and threatening to kill I her if she refused. The note was turned i over to the policemen and they at once | started for the saloon. Leightnon was found seated at a table in the act of writing another note to the woman. Of ficer Wilson, who knew him, accosted him and told him he was under arrest. Jumping from his sent Leighton at tempted to reach for the revolver, but was quickly overpowered. He was taken I to the City Prison, where he was charged ; with carrying a concealed weapon. The ; rings which he had taken from Miss Hall j were found In his possession. The police say that Leighton's attack on the woman was precipitated by her informing him that she was tired of him and intended to return to her parents in San Jose. Trinity Presbyterian Church. Trinity Presbyterian Church enjoyed an unusually refreshing service yesterday, j when the attendance of worshipers was very large. The occasion was the observ i ance of the Lord's Supper, which was ad ; ministered by the pastor. Rev.

DEPUTIES ARE INNOCENT COMMISSIONERS SATISFIED OF THEIR HONESTY. Shrimp Fishing May Be Stopped lor a Stated Period Each Year in Order to Protect Fry. The depletion of the fine marketable fish in San Francisco and San Pablo bays by the Chinese shrimp fishers has aroused the State Fish Commission, and if their plans do not miscarry some salient j changes will soon be made in the existing I fish laws of this State. Last Friday morning The Call published an account of the arrest of five Chinamen engaged in illegal fishing, and the leader confessed to a payment of money to se cure immunity from interference by the authorities while occupied in his lawless acts. Alexander T. Vogelsang, who has lately been appointed a member of the commis sion, and has displayed great energy In the prosecution of his duties as Commis sioner, is full of hope for an improvement of present conditions. "I think the officer who made the arrest last Thursday should be congratulated," he said. "If the authorities would enforce the law against the abuses brought about by shrimp fishing we would not suffer from the scarcity of marketable fish. The only genuine way to save the fish is to close the shrimp fishing during certain months in the year. That will cut off the supply during these months, but some thing of this sort must be done. During the drying season great quantities of shrimps are sent to China, enough to sup ply this coast for the entire year." In regard to the alleged corruption of deputies of the commission Mr. Vogelsang said: "I have heard that Chinese mer chants have paid their attorneys monthly tolls on boats in order to be frai from molestation while they caught young fioh at the same time they did their Phrirap fishing. I am positive the deputies are j honest and no corruption exists among them. If any money has been paid by tho Chinese it has been paid to their attor neys, who secure all exactions for them selVes. At any rate I have not been able to detect any crookedness among the dep uties and I have investigated the matter I thoroughly." L>cores the Ring Contests. "Why More Men Do Not Go to Church" was Dr. Charles Edward Locke's subject last evening at the Central Methodist Episcopal Church. Dr. Locke referred to reasons in the church itself why men do ; not attend, such as inconsistencies I among some of the membrrs, impractical ■ sermons, etc. He then found reasons for i which the men themselves are responsi ble, such as indifference, overwork during the week, Sunday labor and Sunday pleasure, the lives and business meth ods of some men which make the church distasteful, the saloon and drink habit and all kinds of licensed vices. Continu ing. Dr. Locke said: "If you still ask me why more men do not go to church, I must remind you of all the satanlc influences at work, espe cially in the cities, to destroy men. When a man gets into the viselike grip of a bad habit he does not care for the church; some men are ashamed to go to church. Thu man who frequents the saloon, the gambling table, the brothel, or the prize tight, is not often seen In the church. When a man is rendering faithful serv ice to the devil he makes himself believe that there is no sin. no God, no heaven, and no hell. He tries to ridicule the church. "The ring contests which are being held every week in our city are training our youth for San Quentin and the gallows, it is high time that righteous men should make themselves heard, and that good and brave men shall be elevated to of fice who will give to San Francisco such a government as will put a premium n n virtue and manhood and honor. At the present time the city and authorities ap pear to be held up by Sabbath-breakers, me whisky power and corrupt politi cians." ADVERTISEMENTS.

"When a physician discovers, studies or classifies a disease his name is given to it by his fellow doctors. They think that in this way they pay him a compliment, although the discoverer need not have found a cure for the dis- ease. Dr. Richard Bright, an Englishman, is condemned to a sad immortality -which associates his name with a terrible disorder of the kidneys. Bright's disease appears in several forms, it springs from several causes and the older works on medicine positively declare it to be incurable. To say that a man has Bright's disease was once considered equivalent to saying that he stood in the valley of the shadow of death. The end was only a question of time. But that was before Warner's Safe Cure had spread its benefits over the land. The story of C. H. Lincoln of Medford.Mass., shows how this wonderful medicine raised a man from his sick bed, even when his closest friends believed they were hoping against hope. Mr. Lincoln says: "I had typhoid fever and after it came kidney trouble. I tried a dozen doctors and still grew worse. After taking doctors' medicine enough to sink a ship I heard it whispered around that I had Bright's disease of the kid- neys. I knew what that meant, so I pitched the medicine I had outdoors. I then bought one bottle of Warner's Safe Cure and took it according to directions. The first bottle gave me relief and I bought a second. Before that was gone I had gained nearly ten pounds. I continued taking Safe Cure and it cured mf. "I am fifty-nine years old and enjoy as good health as any man of my age. If any one has kidney trouble and Warner's Safe Cure will not cure him nothing this side of the grave will. I believe it the best and only cure for kidney disease on earth." Mr. Lincoln is a veteran fireman with a wide acquaintance in Medford. Unconsciously he makes a valuable suggestion to sufferers from kidney dis- ease. Do not wait until you have taken "medicine enough to sink a ship." May be in the course of your investigations you will light on a good remedy you never heard of before. But probabilities are all against it. Nowhere does the proverb "Delays are dangerous" apply with such force as in kidney derangement. When Bright's disease has set in the kidney tissue is breaking down and passing away every minute. The strength of the body is sapped steadily, surely. Inasmuch as Warner's Safe Cure alone stops kidney degeneration, should it not be used without an hour's delay when pain in the back and head, a cold skin and bad digestion give unmistakable warnings? i iK SAVE YOUR MONEY! j ;!
