Cold and Wet Weather Doing Great Injury
in Western States.

Cold and Wet Weather Doing Great Injury
in Western States.
WASHINGTON, May 2-This is the third
consecutive cold and unfavorable week
throughout the principal wheat and corn
producing States. The week was unusual
ly cold in the States of she upper Missis-
sippi and Missouri valleys. where the daily
temperature ranged from 80 to 10o below
the normal, and closed with freezing
weather. but the indications are. however.
for moro favorable conditions during the
coming week in the Northwest. The
temperature was slightly below the aver.
age from the lake region eastward, while
1t was warmer than usual generally
throughout the Southern States east of
the Mississippi. Excessive rains occ urred
during the week over the central valleys.
including the entire winter wheat regi on.
the northern portion of the gulf States,
and the southern portion of the spring
wheat region. The rainfall was unusual.
ly heavy In the central Mississippi
and Ohio valleys. interfering materially
with farm work in the principal agriculs-
nEal States. Considerable injury has re-
suited from floods and severe local storms
throughout the West. There was also ex-
cessive moisture in the northern portion of
the cotton region where the land is too wet
to work and fears are expressed of an over
flow In the lower Mississippi. Consider
able acreage of oats and wheat IS reported
under water in Illinois, and the indications
are that considerable injury to farming IN
terests from high water will result in the
States of the lower Mississippi and lower
Ohio valleys In the lowlands near the
rivers.
Special Geographic reports show that in
Indiana O very excessive rainfall prevented
blowing and seeding. Wheat and grass
are still in good condition. In Illinois the
rainfall was also excessive; conditions are
unfavorable; o considerable acreage of
wheat and oats Is submerged and hail has
slightly damaged oats in some sections.
Oats. corn and potatoes are rotrlng In the
ground. Pastures and meadows are good,

FIELD OF SPORT.
Peterson's Manager Back

nent CriCketer.

John Muirhead, the past manager and
hacker of Henry Peterson. the champion
sculler of the Pac ic Coast. has returned
from the East with his wife after an
absence of several months, during which
time he visited his former home in Canada.
Mr.. Muirhead. as will be remembered
by readers of THE CALL. left this city
ostensibly for the purpose of backing he
local champion against Stan bury. Hanlau,
Gaudaur and Teemer in the races held at
Austin, Tex, few months ago. The
climate was not kind to Peterson, however
as during his sojurn in the cactus country
he complained of not feeling well, and ad-
Vised Muirhead not to back him to any
great extent in the races he had entered.
After the regatta was over Peterson
went on TO Chicago, agreeing TO meet
MuirEead there in a week or so after his
arrival. His hacker, however, was sur
prised to learn that Peterson bad fallen a
victim To a heavy dose of h0me-slcknesS
the day following MS arrival at the Worlds
Fair city, and without waiting tn consult
his old friend and supporter as to future
movements, he hastily bundled up his
traps and started for the Pacific Coast
MuIrnead is of the opinion that the lesson
to Tin Is one Of much value. which he will
profit oy.
Speaking of boating in the East and in
Canada the weli-knOwn patron of the
sport says that sculing has fallen 10 a
very low ebb, and that il is extremely
doubtful if II will ever again be regarded
a. a popular sport. The fact that the
champion of the world was compelled to
take steerage passage from Vancouver
TO Australia rOvrs that Stanbury's trip
through America and Canada was decid-
edly Improbable aud uninteresting. Mr.
Muirhead is looking well, and IS more
than pleased TO get back tn San Fran cisco.
Cricseters will no doubt regret to learn
that Ben Clarke, secretary OF the Cricket
Association and British Benevolent AsSo-
citation, is lying dangerously i'll with pneu.
mOnia al his residence i'll Oakland. There
are several unopened letters addressed TO
Mr.. Clarke from English and Austre lian
crlcketers, which it is thought contain
valuable Information TO local players, who
are anxious TO learn of their contents.
On Saturday next the most impOTtant
game of the season will ne played at the
Alameda grounds. between the San Fran
cisco and the Alameda teams. The con-
test will virtually decide the struggle for
the Harrison cup. which has dwindIed
down to Il final meeting between the clubs
mentioned. Both clubs are now on an
equality, so far as winning games is con-
cerned, and the next match will be the
tug-Oi-waT.

HATCHERIES OF CRIME.
Police Watching Saloons Frequented
by Young Girls.

Mary Gallagher. 17-year-old girl. who
was arrested in Abe's saloon, Jessie
street, near Third, on Monday morning
about 2 o'clock. was before Judge ConIan
yesterday on charge Of vagrancy. The
Judge remarked that recently an unusual
number Of young girls had been arrested
In saloons south of Market street. They
went there with men whom they picked
up on the street and some OF them made it
a practice to loiter around the bars ana
drink with men who visited the saloons.
The Judge said he thought 1t was time
some action was taken by the police to
punish saloon-keepers who permitted these
young girls to frequent their places By
refusing TO renew their licenses as they
were nothing but hatcheries of immortality.
Sergeant McKenna was sent for and the
Judge drew his attention to the case of the
Gallagher girl. The sergeant said the
police officers in the localities complained
OF had received special instructions TO re-

Versatility of an Artist Whose Work

to Panoramic View.

One by one San Francisco's galaxy
of artistic stars are departing for foreign
climes. If the rate of emigration con-
tinues there will soon be only corporal's
guard remaining. The next to leave will
be Ernest G. Peixotto, who will spend
several years abroad. He will start in
about three weeks.
Pexotto, who is 4 native of California,
has already won his spurs, iu spite of his
% years. His pictures were exhibited in
the salons of 1890 and 1891. at the close of
his last scjourn in Paris. where he studied
under Benjamin Constant and Jules
Lefebvre. He will resume work under
their tuition this winter. His plans in

to the present. Charlie Peters room is
now occupied by coterie of young ladies

Peixotto is one of the most popular
members of the Bohemian Club. He has
also been sworn in as knight OF the
Round Table, and is counted among the
choice spirits, although very quiet and
without any OF the small vices peculiar 10
club men. "Peix is notoriousiy moral
man." Louis Sloss frequently remarks with
sigh, and Uncle George Bromley has
tired IN vain to teach the young artist to
smoke. The Knights are arranging to
give Peixotto a banquet, such a wild and
roliicking an entertainment as signalized
Carison's departure. and which is still
spoken of az the model festiyity OF the
Bohemian Club.
Henry Irving conceived great fancy
iof the young artist. 10 whose paintings he
declared he perceived talent of no ordi-
nary type. he offered TO put Peixotto up
at the Savage Club in London upon his

Engllsh connections for him. AT the ban

Proposals for a benefit entertainment
occupied the attention of the Women's S
Educational and Industrial Union last
night PrOfiting. doubtless, by past ex-
perience, the session was executive. The
attendance Of members was not large.
DIR. Emil Stoessel, William KEELING and
others suggested a plan for bazaar and
entertainment at the Mech anics' Pavilion.
Many ladies favored the proposal as in
vOlving 10 financial risk for the union.
Others opposed it on the score of its magnI-
tGde. The other plan for the replenishing
of the eXeheqner was concert and ball,
similar in character to the entertainments
given by The WOmen's Exchange in Odd
Fellows Hall. No definite action was
taken on either plan.
An advisory board. to manage the enter
tainment when it should be undertaken
and TO confer with the directors regarding
the management of the union, was
