The Wages Of Sin :"

The San Francisco Post Says:
A powerful melodrama bearing the
the above name, was produced at
the Baldwin Theater the other
night for the first time in San
Francisco, and was received with
every evidence Of approval by a
large audience. The work is of the
intense melodramatic quality, pos
sesses ali interesting story, which
is we'll told; exhibits remarkable
constructive ability. abounds in en-
tertaining incidents, shows many
excellent types of character, and
altogether is play which will I'M
questionably have successful
run at this theater. The story
deals with the trials and sufferings
Of a woman, who married one man
by reason Of lie while she loved
another. The william in the piece
gets the wages Of SIP, while the
others are rewarded with happiness
after a series Of misfortunes and
disappointments that are almost
appalling. The cast was excellent,
and the acting was capital.

Beecher AS a Champion Of Chi.
neSo.

nese.
New YORK, Oct.3.-Henry Ward
Beecher is reported as saying that
he was much less concerned with
the Republican and Democratic
platforms and nominations than he
was with the barbarous outrages on
the Chinese out in Wyoming that,
if anybody would get up big
meeting in New York or Brooklyn
to urge the Government to some
vigorous step looking to better pre-.
lection of Chinese and the punish
ment of their prosecutors and the
maintenance of treaty obligations
with CAlna, he would be glad to
preside. He says he is surprised
that the moral sentiment of the
community has not ere this mani
tested itself in some such express
sion OF public opinion. Ii there
is any issue between civilization
and barbarism in this business, he
thinks civilization is on the side of
Cinnamon and barbarism on the
side Of the stronger party. Their
meekness under persecution, more
over, he thinks, shows these un-
happy pagans to have the spirit of
Christianity that ought to make
protesting Christian men blush for
shame. He repudiates the imputa-
ton that American workmen are to
be held responsible for these out
RACES and will probably have some
thing to say about it from Plymouth
Church pulpit tomorrow. Beecher's
notion that the prosecutors are gen
orally aliens like the Chinese them
selves and hardly more desirable as
citizens appears to be pretty gen
orally shared by the Eastern pa
perS.

Angry Turf Men.

| New YORK, Oct. 3-The World
says: The strained relations which
have existed between the owners
of the Brooklyn and Rancocas
stables since the Bliss selling race
at Sheepshead Bay in 1880 caused
an outbreak at Jerome Park yester-
day. The immediate cause was
another selling race which Pontico,
half brother of Pontiac, Won clever
ly. He was entered to be sold for
81 800, but Mcdonald, who ran Sec
ond with Bordealy, and the Dryer
Brothers, who ran third with Lula,
ran up the price of Pontico to $15,-
005 and the auctioneer announced
that he was bought in by the owner.
This left the comfortable sum of
$13, sos to be divided, two-thirds to
Mcdonald one-third to the DIVERS,
the surplus money in all selling
races being so divided under the
rules of the American Jockey Club
Immediately after the announce
ment of the sale by the auctioncer,
Lorillard repudiated the purchase
Of Pontico, with the declaration
that the bids had been carried be-
yond his instructions and that the
auctioneer was party to the trans
action. This assertion brought
Phil Dryer to the front, who, with
much show of anger, replied in
terms not complimentary to Loril-
lard. The crowd which had been
attracted by the heavy bidding
sided with Dwyer and repeatedly
cheered them both Lorillard and
Dryer appealed to the judges, who
also heard statements from Loril- |
lard's agent ani his trainer and
also from the auctioneer. The ex-
element lasted for nearly half an
hour, when the judges ordered the
track cleared.

THE POLICE COURT.

terday.
The Police Court was packed
with spectators yesterday. to wit
ness the trial of the case Of Selder
Richards, charged with an assault
upon Motley Kelly. The rumpus
took place on Monday last, and was
sort of whirlpool, into which the
entire southern portion of the city
was drawn.
1t was charged that Mr.. Richards
the defendant, assaulted Miss Kel-
ly by hitting her under the left ear
with his fist, dancing hornpipe on
her PROSTATE form, and then beat
ing her with spoon-bill shovel.
About two dozen lady witnesses
were in attendance, ranging from
young ladies of twelve to matrons
of uncertain age, all arrayed in
their best clothes, as if attending
an afternoon matinee at the thea
ter. Miss Kelly herself was there,
and testified as to the nature of the
assault. She admitted on cross ex-
animation that she was somewhat
mellow at the time, but had been
very badly treated nevertheless.
A young lady in the neighbor-
hood testified that she saw Miss
Kelly and 4 young lady named
Lane, throwing oyster cans, old
shoes and harsh language over the
fence at each other. During the
exchange Of courtesies, Mr.. Rich
ards stepped in and preserved the
peace by knocking Miss Kelly
down, and banging her with the
spoon billed shovel.
1t took nearly all day to examine
the witnesses, and the jury found a
verdict of guilty.
