In conversation with few of the prom
inent citizens of the city, have learned

date those, early in October, | intend
to start night school, in which instruc-
ton will be given in any or all of the fol
lowing branches: Bookkeeping, pen
manship, elocution, mathematics, includ-
ing arithmetic, algebra, geometry, trigo-
nometry, etc, etc.

Pedestrians on Kearny street, near Pine.

AFTER THE FRAY.
Varsity Teams Eager for
Another Game.
Proposition to Decide the Champion
ship in February Favorabiy
Entertained.

1t would perhaps have been thought that
after their magnificent game on Saturday
the university boys would have been con-
tent with their football honors.
But there is every indication that the
championship between The Stale University
and Stanford University teams will not re-
main long undecided.
Both teams are thoroughly satisfied with
themselves and with everybody else. They
acknowledge it was one of the best games
ever played on the Pacific Coast, and that
every man played the best he could.
The referee and umpire gave the utmost
satisfaction. their decisions being perfectly
fair and just to each side. 1t is something
unusual in football for the competing teams
TO have nothing TO complain about in this
respect.
Although there is certain amount OF sat-
isiaction in the fact that neither team can
claim victory still there Is feeling that it
would have been better IL Saturdays game
had not resulted in a tie.
Both teams are accordingly eager for the
fray again.
A proposition has been made 70 plav
another cham pi0nship game on February
-. The charge Tor admission will be one
dollar, and the proceeds will go to charity
The students are thought 10 be judicious
IN their intention TO devote tue proceeds 10
viii materially help 10 p0pulariZe the game.
A canvass has already been made OF both
teams, aud those spoken 10 have cordially
endorsed the proposal. II is within the
possibilities, therefore, that the game will
come off on the date mentioned.
The majority Of the Stanford team will
return 10 Palo Alto by the early train this
morning. They are all feeling good and in
capital spirits
A reporter of THE CALL yesterday saw
ii. w. Phillips, the owner Of the big horn,
which has received so much notice in the
press.

said Mir. Phillips, land have no hard feel
ings against the Berkeley BOYS for what
they did. l look upon 1t as nothing else but
good piece OF college fun, or II you like to
put 1t in another way, as good practical
joke atmy expense.
There were two big horns, and the best
oil the joke Is that tic boys took the trum-
pet OF one horn ard the other part of the
other one, with the result that both were
rendered practically useless.
II wish 10 make this statement TO show
that there are no hard feelings between the
teams over the practical joke.

little fun as they are. III anybody should

NOTES FROM NILES.
The Growing Importance of Apricot
Cuiture-Social Affairs.


CuIture-Social Affairs.
Correspondence of THE MoRNISe CALI.
The first apricot trees were brought into
California by French gardeners as far back
as 1850, and were planted In the warm foot
nil valleys all over the State. When the
first State fairs were held in Sacramento
this fruit was exhibited and soon became
favorite, and as the years went by became
pretty generally planted throughout the
State in the little home orchards which sur
rounded every well-to-do farmhouse.
When horticulture began TO grow and as
sumo important proportions in the great
numbers of CALIFORNIA; resources, peaches,
apples, pears. grapes and plnms were
planted, and nuts, then prunes. the more
familiar fruits 10 fact received the first at
tention; and II was not until about fifteen
years ago that apricots began to attract any
attention. In fact the quantity OF dried
apricots sent into the San Francisco mar
kets was SO small that il was not M til 1884
that the shipments amounted TO Enough to
warrant a record by the Board of Trade. In
that year (1SS5) 200 600 pounds Of dried april
cots were sent into the San Francisco mar
Eets.
For a very few years preceding that date all
dried apricots sent into market had received
such splendid prices las the fruit grew In
favor, that the fame Of the yield per acre
OF the small orchards spread abroad, and
there was almost Immediately an apricot
"pOom." At any rate the quantity shipped
each year has grown astonishingly until,
IN 1890. 100000 pounds of dried apricots
went into or through the San Francisco
markets. This does not, of course, begin
to show the number OF pounds of apricots
grown each year, and sold fresh or canned.
Because IL is very delicate and fragile
fruit, it has not as yet been shipped in large
quantities In the East. To get 1t into East
PTn markets In any kind OF an eatable con-
dition ii has to be picked so green that our
Eastern friends cannot find in ID, when IL
reaches their tables, the luscious fruit it
really is.
However, the modes OF transportation are
becoming so improved each year that we
can hope, within another year or more. to
have made as large market for the fresh
fruit In the East as we already have for the
dried. The range for apricot-grOwing is too
limited TO ever have any great competition,
and the apricot-grower can rest secure in
the thought that for many years to come the
apricot will lead all other dried fruits in
prices as ii has for the past four years. In
deed. 1t has seemed almost to gauge the
prices for the balance of the fruits. In this
section the prune, the almond, the peach
and the aDricot are the best producers, and
the owner Of an apricot orchard Is always
sure Of well-flled purse at the end of the
season.
