Mystieism and narrisism.

SAN Francisco, Feb. 16.--Miss A. A.
Chevalier, who made an expose of the
Thomas Lake Harris community, at
Santa Rosa last fall, lectured tonight to
a large audience on Mysticism and Har-
risism. She said that she would
be guilty of crime not to un-
cover Harris's monstrous iniquities.
Proofs are incontrovertible, consisting
OF mass of letters, afidavits and state
ments by people who have left the COM
munity. The lecturer touched slightly
on various forms of impurity practiced
under Harris's direction, and declared
that if the appeals to the state execu-
tive failed in causing the dispersion of
the community, she would carry the
matter to Washington and advocate the
use OF the measures used against the
MOrmOns

A San Francisco Opinion of the Los
Angeles Team.
: The team for Los Angeles is almost
completed, and on paper looks like a
strong one.
Glenalvin, who is to captain and man
age it, despite his statement made here
on the day the Portland team forfeited
the game to San Jose, that he would
never play in California again, has
signed number of strong eastern men.
G1enalvin is now in St. Louis, but he
will arrive in Los Angeles about the 1st
of March with his players and COM
mence the work of putting them in
shape for opening day. Mr.. Wander
beck, owner of the Los Angeles team,
writes that the people of his city are
taking great interest in the the approach
ing season, and he believes that the
games there will be well patronized.
There is some talk OF the formation of
an opposition league, the circuit to be
made up of San Francisco, Stockton,
Sacramento and Oakland, but whether
or not the scheme will go through no
one seems to know.-[San Francisco Ex-

Blood Horse Rules.

SAN Francisco, Feb. 16.-The Pacific
Coast Blood Horse association held an
adjourned annual meeting this evening,
and made several important additions
to the rules. The measures adopted
give the presiding Judge at races full
power of deciding which horse wins the
heat, to prevent jockeys, as much as
possible, from premeditated losing of
races or heats, and to forbid betting on
single heats. The eastern rules of
weight were adopted without alteration.
The new regulation which gives the
deciding power to the presiding Judge,
is this: ''The presiding judge shall de-
eide which horse wins, and, with the
aid of his assistants, place as many of
the others as they may think proper,
except when in running the best sof
heats it is necessary to place all the
horses. The presiding Judge may
solicit the opinion of his asso-
ciates, but should both of them
disagree with him, his Judgment
shall prevail, the intention of this sec
ton being to give the presiding Judge
full power and hold him responsible y
Some of the members were at first in
clined to oppose the adoption of this
rule, but they quickly accepted the
argument of President Barnes that two
associate judges, often found with diff
Guilty, are not always competent for
making actual Judgment in important
cases, though they are valuable in Civ
ing advice or information, as three
judges can watch the course much bet
ter than one.

Kelly knocked Ont.

SAN Francisco, Feb. 16.-Billy Smith,
the Boston light weight, knocked out
Kelley in the thirty-ninth round at the
Pacific club tonight, although Kelly was
all but knocked out in the nineteenth
round. The fight was a slow one until
the thirty-sixth, when Kelly took the
lead, and up to the middle OF the thirty
ninth appeared to be the winner. Smith
then suddenly shifted his position and
knocked Kelly down four times; three
times the latter arose with great effort
when nearly counted out, but punch
in the wind sent him down fourth
time and out.

A WELL-KNOWN DRIVER.
"Major" Griffin Thinking of Locating
in Los Angeles.

1. III. Griffin, well-known driver, is
in the city. Mr.. Griffin comes from
Kentucky, but has trained in the north
ern part of the state for couple of
seasons. He is very fayorably i'm
pressed with Los Angeles, and has
almost concluded to locate here. Last
season Mr.. Griffin had the Santa Rosa
string, which included Ned Lock,
Maude, Redwood, Captive, Harley and
others. Since his advent into California
he has put some fifteen trotters in the
2:30 list and gave Edwin G. his pacing
record of 2:15. He was also the first
driver to handle Little Albert, who had
such sensational campaign last season.
Should Mr.. Griffin decide to locate here
he will open public training stable.

coRBETT's PECULIAR LAYOUT.
An Affair Which savors Good Deal of
Fake.

NEW YORK, Feb. 16.-Jim Corbett,
the heavy weight pugilist of California,
made mistake tonight. To all appear
ances he knocked out two men, each in
one round; but the majority of those
present, and especially those near the
ring, sized it up as a palpable fake.
He failed to knock out Joe
Lannon, who stayed to the end of the
third round, when Corbett's manager,
William Muldoon, very seriously an
nounced that Corbett had fulfilled his
intentions of stopping three men in
nine rounds. There were at least
$1,000 people present when the first pair
of fighters were introduced. Corbett's
opponent was William Spillings of
Rochester. In the first round
Spillings led, touching Corbett's
wind. A clinch followed, dur
ing which Corbett struck Spill
ings in the face, which proceeding
was deservedly hissed. When they
broke away Corbett sprang at Spillings
and knocked him down with a right
handler on the jaw, repeating the per-
iormance when Spillings arose. Corbett
then walked to his corner, while Spill
lings leaped to his feet and jumped
down from the ring lightly. People were
surprised when they heard it decided
that he was knocked out, and many
said Fake" in loud tones. Bob Caifrey
of Philadelphia was the next opponent.
After brief sparring Caffrey touched
Corbett's nose. Corbett quickly struck
Caffrey behind the ear with his right
and then twice on the face. Caffrey
dropped on his hands and knees and
stayed there about ten seconds, during
which time he looked at the audience.
He was declared knocked out, and like
wise left the ring with agility, amid
loud misses.
Then Joe Lannon came on amid cries
of "No taking" In the first round
Lannon did most Of the leading, but
Corbett got in the first good blow on
lowed, and Lannon received a left
handler full in the face. At the end of
the round Corbett was fresh and
Lannon winded. In the second
round Lannon led twice, but
fell short, and clinches fol-
lowed. Corbett then landed a hot one
with left on Lannon's face, drawing
blood. Another clinch, after which Lam
non got away. Corbett got in again on
Lannon's face, and Lannon retaliated.
More clinching, followed by give and
take blows, closed the round. In the
third, Corbett led and they clinched
again. Breaking away, Corbet struck
Lannon against the ropes with blow
in the face. He landed another
blow, which Lannon returned. Then
twice, in quick succession, Corbett got
in on Lannon'S face, and the latter
landed on Corbett's wind. Lannon
looked little groggy, but guarded well.
Time was called as Corbett was forcing
the fight. Though Lannon did not even
pretend to be knocked oat, Muldoon de-

Progeny.

He Secures Some of Dexter Princes S
Progeny.
L. J. Rose has just returned from San
Francisco. where he has been attending
the meetings of the worlds fair COM
missioners from this state. While in
the north Mr.. Rose made quite deal
with Dan Mccarthy. He gave the lat
ter gentleman Dubec, three brood
mares and $1,000 in gold coin for brood
mare by Richards Elector and two OF
his fillies by Dexter Prince. Mr.. Rose
is very enthusiasticabo Dexter Prince.
He was shown several horses of his get,
and they all showed greatspeed. James
Dustin, the we'll known driver, says that
all the progeny of Dexter Prince handled
by him have been wonderfully speedy.
Dexter Prince has been hidden away at
Lodi, and has had little or no opportu-
nifty as sire. The dam of the
fillies secured is probably the most
fashionable mare ever bred to Dexter
Prince, yet this mare has not even yet
been broken"
Dexter Prince is the sire of Chloe
2 "a, Lottery Ticket 2 rs, Princess Alice
2 :16 (pacing) and several others. He is
by Kentucky Prince, the sire of Guy
2:10A. The dam of Dexter Prince is
Lady Dexter by Hambletonian. Lady
Dexter is full sister to Dexter 2:17L
and Dictator, the sire of Jay Eye See
2:10, Phallas 2:1334 and Director 2 IL.
1t will therefore be noticed that Dexter
Prince is of exceptional breeding.
Mr.. Rose will ship a carload of trot-
ters, principally Alcazars, to be sold in
Chicago about March 10th. He origin
ally intended to send this consignment
to New York, but better prices have
prevailed in the west this year.

President vanderbeck has passed sew
eral sleepless nights. 1t is all on ac-
count of the grounds question. Where
will league ball be played in Los An
geles? Insure your life, then ask Van
derbeck that question. The life of a
baseball magnate is not an enviable one.
The cable people are hot after the Los
Angeles magnate. They want ball
played at the First street grounds, and,
of course. offer big nducements-how
big no one knows but Vanderbeck and
the, cable people. The First street
grounds are trife small at present,
but there is plenty of available land.
The grand stand and buildings are pie
beian, bat the cable people will see that
suitable accommodations are provided
If the First street grounds are the scene
OF league ball.
The electric people desire that league
ball be played at the corner of Seventh
and Alameda streets. The Los Angeles
Athletic club also ask that these grounds
recently constructed by them at great
cost be the grounds selected by Wander
beck. They claim that they have the
best grounds, which is undoubtedly
true, as the buildings are of substan-
tial character, and there is ample ac-
commodation. The Athletic club offers
Vanderbeck the grounds for a nominal
figure. The only drawback advanced
against the Athletic club grounds is
that the sun beats into the grand stand,
making the bleachers preferable to the
stand.
#*x
Both grounds are easy of access, the
one by cable and the other by electric
ity. Vanderbeck is doubtless debating
as to which company can handle the
crowds to the best advantage. The So
luton of this question will undoubtedly
settle the knotty problem. If it does
not, the chances are that Vanderbeck, in
despair, will build ground of his own,
at some point where both the cable and
electric cars run in close proximity. In
the meantime the opening of the season
is rapidly approaching and something
will have to drop in day or two. 1t is
safe betting, however, that Vanderbeck
has had the advantages of both grounds
extolled to him more than once.
