PROBABLE WIXXERS.
Pratt & Tierney Have Been Summoned
Before the Board of Pblfce
Commissioners.
The Board of Police Commissioners
will be called upon this evening to in
vestigate a complaint made against a
saloon conducted by Pratt & Tlerney
at 138 Mason street. The manage
ment of the Langham Hotel, at the
corner of Mason and Ellis streets,
complains that the resort is conducted
in a disorderly manner and a number
of witnesses will be called in substan
tiation of the charge.
Pratt & Tierney received their li
cense but a short time ago. They
promised to run their house in ac
cordance with law, but the Langham
Hotel people assert that they have not
done so. It is alleged that Pratt &
Tierney maintain a side entrance that
leads to a piano room in the rear.
Although the law requires that all
music and unseemly noises cease at
1 o'clock in the morning, disturbances
of all descriptions emanate from the
place, it is alleged, and the guests of
the Langham are disturbed.
It is said that women of question
able character frequent the, place and
that the proprietors permit them to
conduct themselves in a boisterous
manner and continue playing the
piano until the early hours of the
morning. This nuisance has become
so flagrant, the hotel people claim,
that they have been forced to resort
to the police commission.
AVonian Dragged by Street Car.
Mrs. Anita Grimm of 36 McAllister
street was dragged about half a block
over the rough and muddy pavement
of that " thoroughfare last evening by
a street car, which she attempted to
board at Leavenworth street. She was
severely shaken up and had a costly
evening gown ruined by the rough
experience. She stated that the
conductor signaled the gripznan to
start the car while one of -her feet
was still on the ground, and response
was so sudden that she fell and was
hauled along as stated. Mrs. Grimm
Is 'a -.sister of Mrs. Ernestine Krellng

BERKELEY. April 25. — Thomas
Rlckard. oresident of the Board of
Trustee?, submitted his annual report
to-ni?ht to the Trustees, In which he
recommends several measures for th»*
improvement of the city. Chief
among these Is that a new charter be
provided upon the ground that the
present one contains too many limi
tations. An increase in the tax rate
limit from 75 cents to SI Is recom
mended and it is suggested that four
extra policemen be immediately ap
pointed and that the salaries of all
officials be increased, particularly the
sanitary inspector, to $125.

; NEW YORK, April 25.— With scarce- i
'. ly a cheer from the 15,003 men and wo- j
j men who stood spellbound watching '
! the finish of the Excelsior handicap at ;
• the Jamaica track to-day Rostand 1
I dashed i>ast the post a winner.
Xot one out of that mighty throng ;
; that saw Rostand gallop off with the j
i JSOOO prize was aware that F. R. Proc- j
i tor, the published owner of the horse,
' is a woman.
': The time of the race, 1:45 3-5, is a
' new track record, fully one second bet
ter than the old mark for the distance.
The betting was fast and furious.
Every horse of the twelve starters was
i more or less supported. Oarsman and
Buttons were choices at 4 to 1 each.
t The former was in great demand,
more so than the latter, and at the end
' his price dropped to 3 to 1, while But-
I tons advanced to 5 to 1. Only a few
• stray bets went In on Rostand.
i Highball, the champion two-year-old
: of lust season, made his nr.st public ap-
I pearance of the year in the opening
j race. He was asked to give away a big
j lump of weight to every horse In the
i race, and through lack of physical con
¦ ditjon failed. He ran a remarkably
¦; good race and finished third, close up

Special Dispatch to The Call.
The double card advertised by the

ENTRIES FOR TO-DAY.
"Big B11K; Knapp leaves with his
father and brother for Kansas City to
day. Knapp will be greatly missed, as
he rode many winners at Oakland. His
mounts could alwaye be backed with
confidence, for his reputation is untar
nished by scandal of any sort.
Puerl Wllkerson and his stable also
start on the Kansas City trip to-day.
Advices from Kansas City state that
Charley Fink's horses reached there in
bad condition, and Constellator, it was
expected, would die.
Little Joe Jones appeared In the
leading role at Oakland track yester
day, dropping in first at the wire on
four winners— Prince Brutus, Redwald,
Mysty's Pride and Forest King. Joe is
no novice in the saddle, for he rode on
the New York tracks last season, among
his exploits being that of piloting The
Fiddler, claimed to have been a "ring
er" and over whose victory the pool
rcoms throughout the country were
mulcted of more than. $100,000. The
Eastern boy's character is above re
proach, and it would not be surprising
to see him at the top of the ladder in
another year. He rides equally well a
sulker or a free runner, can walkout in
front and his judgment of pace will
ripen with age.
It appears to be the rule of late for
three favorites to reach home in front.
That part of It is all right, but some
well-backed horses now and then dis
play marked lack of speed, and. others
at long odds drop in second and third,
well played. Perhaps some owners im
agine that as the season draws to a
close the judges relax their vigilance.
There are two or three riders at least
th"trt certainly thjnk so, Judging by
their efforts. The card was a very
trim-looking one and drew a large at
tendance.
Sam Jones' very useful selling plater
Forest King turned the trick in the last
race of the afternoon, at one and a six
teenth miles, but it proved a costly win
for the Oregon turfman. Forest King
was fourth choice in the betting, and
with Joe Jones as the pilot made all
the running, and in a driving finish led
Soothsayer, out nearly a length in 1:47.
Caronal, which opened favorite, fin
ished third. The winner was bid up
from $600 to 51500 by Charley McCaf
ferty. Sam bid the customary $5, and
there was no change of ownership.
Crosswaite on Wistaria, a 10 to 1
phot, carrtured the opening sprint. The
filly took the lead turning into the
stretch and at the wire won handily
from the 8 to 6 favorite. Colonel Bal
lantyne. Kubelik, a 50 to 1 shot, ran
third. The Stewardess received consist
ent backing, but showed to no advan
tage. . ¦;
Prince Brutus, at odds of 11 to 20, ran
away from his company in the two
year-old scramble over a half-mile. Al
though on Saturday George P. McNear
experienced no difficulty in beating
Eduardo for the show, things were re
versed yesterday. There was a. very
smart play on Eduardo for the third
position and the youngster not only got
it, but beat McNear for the place. Now,
two-year-olds, in no country run this
way, and the race may receive some
sifting. If one is seeking for consist
ency in racing, two-year-olds, if pos
sessed of a particle o{ class, usually
furnish it.
Something from down in the orange
country rang up a bullseye in the Fu
turity course sprint following. Agnes
Mack, a winner at Los Angeles, was
heralded as a clever piece of racing
material, and at one stage of the bet
ting ruled equal favorite with Picka
way. Later on her price went to G and
7. See can do well with this sort, for he
had Agnes in front all the way, dispos
ing of Nullah by less than, a length-.
Aunt Polly was third. Pickaway ran
out on the stretch- turn with Cross
waite, or he might have won.
Billy Magrane's Redwald eloped with
the mile and fifty yard purse in race
horse fashion. The gelding was a 9 to
5 favorite and, leading throughout,
downed the two grand performers, So
linus and Moor, very cleverly. Pierce'
J, with See in the saddle, trudged along
in third position for a time, then went
on a strike for higher odds. Even Jack
Little beat him out for fourth money.
Lady Kent came a long, long way
from defeating Misty's Pride in the
fifth, a six-furlong selling entertain
ment. The Oregon mare closed favor
ite at 9 to 5, and with Jones up tiptoed
her field from the time Jake Holtman
sprung the barrier. Mlmo and Louis
Wagner, two long shots, fought it out
for the place, the former receiving the
verdict by Jalf a length. St. Winni
fride, Hainault and Lady Kent all ran
indifferent races.

Catarrli is not only a most disgusting and ofFensive W fp !
malady, but when allowed to continue, becomes constitu- .Wi • -|CrJsl !
tional. The foul secretions and mucous matter are -^1 js^Spi
absorbed into the blood, and the whole system becomes «
infected with the catarrhal poison, and can't be reached
by inhalations, sprays, washes, powders and salves. Only r "^^*^ZA t&&
a remedy that enters into the circulation and cleanses and < i%$ t *^ k^&&^
purifies the polluted blood, can cure Catarrh after it gets '*&» g&'ZS-
to be chronic. It is a disease "'.'"¦
