FIRST ICE TROT.

The pleasant weather yesterday
brought good crowd in the afternoon
to enjoy the racing on Lake Como ice
track. Fully fifty horses took part in
the speeding, with about 1000 people
looking OH and enjoying the impromptu
races. The lack of sufficient snow made
sleighing poor, and the ice was rather
too CLASSY for the horses not recently
sbarp-shod. Nevertheless the trials Of
speed were sharp and exciting, the
horses showing wonderful condition
considering the unfavor able season for
road Work. The most noticeable we're:
Frank Bostwick's Capt Wood; J. G.
Moulton's Pearl r. 2:17A; Fred
Schroeder's Warren, 2:2O: DR.. r.
Prices Stratford, 2:22s4; j. Z.
Shea's Ronth Bassett, 2:20;
Pete Langdon's Grey Dan; William
Schutte'S Five Points; w. Brooks Hem
derson's Queen; F. Racine's Last Call.
and the following with their we'll known
roadsters: Messrs. Barry Ryan, James
Fenstermaker, W. O'C0nnor, w. Cor
coran. A. Michaud and numerous
others.
Not only the sides of the track were
lined with sleighs but all available
points of vantage along the boulevard.
Owing to the high wind on Friday
drifting the snow, the track could not
be cleared as wide as was intended, but
Mr.. MisSbaumer has promised to have
it full width by Wednesday, when
everyone is invited to partake i'll the
sport, which will take place between

THE OUTRAGED CALIFORNIA
METROPOLIS

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 13.-The APP
pointment of Nose Gunst, the we'll
known sporting man, as police co minis
sioner of San Francisco; the recent re-
fusal of acting United States District At
torney Knight to issue warrent for
the arrest of c. p. Huntington for vio-
lation of the Interstate commerce law;
the issuing OF pass to Frank H. Stone,
politician, and the glazing frauds at
the recent election caused Mayor
Sutro to issue call for mass
meeting of citizens to take action
in the matter. The meeting was
held last night in the Metropolitan
hall, which was crowded by represent
alive citizens. 1t is estimated that
10000 people were turned away, being
unable to gain ad mission. The meet
ing was very business like. Speeches
were made by we'll known men,
and series of resolutions was
adopted appropriate to the occasion.
These resolutions denohnce Z. p. Hunt
ington as a self confessed briber; &C
cuse him of taking S56,000,000 from
English stockholders in the Cen
trail P acific, and solemn protest was
entered against the passage of the
funding bill, and the speaker of the
house is appealed to protect the people
of California by refusing to give
special order for day to the
Central Pacific railroad company, and
each individual member Of congress is
appealed to not to overlook the 100000
protests against this bill filed by the in~
habitants of the Pacific coast. The res
olutions also demand thai the legal au-
thorites of the United States in this
judicial district shall issue warrant
for the arrest Of Huntington. The
president is appealed to to see that
justice is done and that he demand that
Messrs. Knight and Heacock do their
full duty under the law, or that they
be removed from the office they
are disgracing and degrading.
Other resolutions depounce eX.Gov.
Markham as the tool of the Southern
Pacific railroad, and the appointment of
Nose Gunst as police commissioner is
characterized as burning shame
and disgrace to the respectable
people of the community. 1t was re-
solved that committee of three be ap-
pointed to wait upon Gulst and request
him to resign the office OF police CONF
missioner; also that committee be APP
pointed to act with other organizations
of like character III securing the re-
forms so earnestly desired,

some purpose. These officers draw the
same pay as officers of equal rank in
the United States army. The pay for
three Judge advocates for ten days
apiece at camp is 1854. The same is
true of the commissary and inspector
of small arms practice, making total
in all of S552.
The new bill, however. reduces the
term of service from five to three years;
it also makes provision for inspection
by a regular army officer. Both of
these measures meet with the hearty
Endorsement Of the guard. A provision
is also made for the expenditure of Sl0.-
900 upon equipment each year. This
amount is far too much, and it seems to
be the general opinion that most of it
will be used by the brigade commander
to remedy the ony drawback to bril-
gade encampment, and buy tents

REPLIES TO COL. BOB.
REV.C.B. WILCOX ANSWERS MFR.
INGERSOLLsS ASSERTIONS,
And Declares That Neither Bible
Nor Minister Need
Apology.

The address of Rev. Charles B. Will
cox on "lngersoll and the Bible'' was
delivered to large congregation last
evening at the First NJ. e. church. % %
Mr.. Wilcox resented the imputation
of Col. Ingersoll that the ministers of
the Gospel were afraid 10 tell the truth
about the Bible. The whole history of
the clergy was a record OF untlinchlng
courage and elf-sacrifice to duty. and
it is not necessary to point to the eX-
amples of Wesley, Luther, or even
Parkhurst. The speaker was not de-
fender or an apolOgiSt for the Bible. 1t
needs neither apology nor defense. 1t
has never had so strong hold upon
the people as at the present time.
Porphyry, CELSIUS, Julian the Apostate,
and, in later times Voltaire. Thorn as
Paine and Ingersoll have all the same
essential arguments. Their labors,
however, have been in vain. In the
first 800 years of the Christian era there
were ten general prosecutions of the
new sect. After one of these, when all
stroyed, and all the Christians eradi-
Gated. Diocletian, the Roman emperor,
struck off medal in honor of his signal
victory. Upon the medal was the motto;
1.-The Christian Name Destroyed"
At the present time, nevertheless,
there are more adherents of the anni~
Inflated sect than there were inhab-
itants of the Roman empire in its great
est extent. In the year 1760, in small
room at Geneva, Switzerland, Voltaire
predicted that the close of the nineteenth
century would witness the extinction of
the Christian religion. That very room
is now Bible depository. The new
faith required 1, 500 years to acquire
100,000,000 adherents, and 300 more
years to add like number, but in the
past 95 years the total number of be-
levers has risen from 800, 000,000 to 7O0,
100000.
During all this time the Bible has
withstood the assaults of thousands of
Ingersolls. If it was fraud, remem-
Der the words of Lincoln: "You can de-
ceive all the people some of the time, and
some of the people all the time, but you
can't deceive all the people all the time"
Everything has its use. The Bible is
intended for our spiritual needs. A
table of lOgarithms would be as poor
substitute for the ten commandments as
the latter would be for the table. Art
and science would be out of place in
the Bible. 70 abolish religion or to
abolish physicians would not abolish
the sorrow and the disease which make
both medicine and the Bible necessary.
People will laugh approvingly at IngeI-
soils jokes, but when grief and affiic-
ton come they will again send for the
man of God, and at the open grave Of
the loved one they will again turn to
Him who alone can say II am the
resurrection and the life"

evening will contrast Con. Ingersoll's

WHOLE tor OF CROOKS
Gathered in by the Police During
Sunday

There was quite an interesting collec-
ton of crooks occupying cells in the
central station all day yesterday,as we'll
as last night. There were seven in all.
Three were gathered in Saturday, and
the other four were arrested yesterday,
though two of them were charged with
nothing but vagrancy.
The entire party consisted Of Pat
Hill, James Horrigan, Ed West, Harry
Elms. Ed Devine, Harry Buck and
Charles Mccain. The last two are
charged with vagrancy, and Elms and
Devine were arrested for disorderly
conduct. Harry Elms is a brother Of
Spec" White, who is now serving a
life sentence i'll Saltwater for the Har
ris murder,
Hill, West and Horrigan are wanted
OH charge of stealing sleigh robes and
other goods. Hill, 1t turns out, is a
parole graduate. of the st. Cloud re-
formatory. Supt. William Lee, of the
fefOrm9tory, called at the centralssta-
ton apd held short talk with Hiii.
What the result will be is not known,
Buck and Mccain. the "vags," have
both done time, the former in state
prison and the other in the reformatory,
so the police say.

AT THE THEATERS.
Metronolitan-"our Flat. "


When Mrs. Musgrave conceived and
produced in farccal form the idea Of
young married couple trying to dodge
the "butcher, baker and candlestick
maker" she hit upon an entertaining
diversion. The title of Mrs. Musgrave's
creation is ''Our Flat" This farce was
produced at the Metropolitan opera
house last evening by Emily Bancker
and her company. 1t does not present
an intricate plot. to be first understood
and then untangled. 1t is simply q
laughabIe exposition of the trials of an
ambitious young dramatic writer and
his wife, who are afraid to be found at
home by their tradespeople. In vain
does the young author toll. He grindS
out tragedies, but the managers
reject the manuscripts, because the
people don't want tragedy. At last a
bright idea seizes the authors wife, and
without the knowledge of her husband
she writes comedy, founded OH their
own ridiculous and laughable expert
ences. The manager accepts it, and at
last the money comes in.
MISS Emily DduCkeT UIOuSHG W tiiS
role of the authors wife much gaiety
and eXuberance. Miss Bancker is an
extremely pretty woman, with an eX-
pressive countenance and refreshing
spontaneity that renders her work de-
lightful.
George w. Parsons was excellent in
the role of the young author, and Lee
Jarvis contributed an admirable cbarac-
ter sketch of Bella, the servant.
The second act is by far the best of
the three.
"Our Flat" will appear the first half
of the week.

The new military bill introduced so
early in the senate has not failed to re-

only a halfway measure, and it would
have been great deal better for the
guard had it never seen the
light. In spite of the fact
that officers of the regular army
have recommended the twelve COM

that formation has been adopted by our
government and the principal ones in
Europe, and in spite Of the fact that the

including Alabama, Arkansas, Colora-

Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts,,
Ohio, Tennessee, Vermont and Wis

DEAD IN BED.
Another Brown Crosses the Dark
River.

Coroner Whitcomb was called yester-
day morning to the LIE Chance lodgin
house, $40 Jackson street, to view the
body of lodger who was found dead
in his bed at $50 a. m. The body proved
to be that of J. Brown, who began COM
ing to the place about week ogo.
Brown was apparently about fifty years
old. He had no overcoat and no
money. Both of his feet had recently
been frozen, and several of the toes
amputated. Brown wore heavy rubberS,
but no shoes. Some files of A. j.
Blethen's Penny Press of Minneapolis
served as insoleS for the rubbers
Judging from the symptoms Brown had
manifested the day before his death,
and by what he had said, Whitcomb
was inclined to believe that he died of
peritonitIs. The body was removed to
Willwerscheid's undertaking rooms,
where the coroner will hold an autopsy
today.
Brown had formerly slept in cheap
lodging house in Minneapolis.

The Grand: "a Railroad Ticket

The Grand: "a Railroad Ticket"
The RAILROAD Ticket company that
opened a weeks engagement at the
Grand last night is beyond question
one of the best, if not the best farce
comedy combination on the road. The
house was crowded at last nights per-
Torrance, and the audience was kept in
a continual roar from start to finish.
AS for the play itself, little need be
said, as it was seen here before, and
even if it had not been, there is not
enough plot to it to admit of more than
a mere mention, anyhow. There is just
enough to it to give room for some
clever comedy work. aud the excellent
company certainly loses none of the
opportunities. The specialties are
mostly new, and every turn was greeted
by encore after encore.
While the work of none Of the mem
beers of the company admits OF any crit
icism, that of soma Of them deserves
special mention. William Blaisdell, as
the young ticket broker, is very clever,

six encores, and they would probably

clever both in her burleSque work and
specialtles, and the singing OF Alice

plause. Marie Bach also sings we'll.

SCHILLER FETE,
MAGNIFICENT Interior Decora-
tons for the Mechanics
Pavilion.
The Greatest Enthusiasm Is Already
Manifested In the Coming
Festival.

The Goethe-Schiller Memorial Associa-
ton intends that on the occasion of the
festival to be held in Novemb Der the interior
of the Mechanics Pavilion shall be I'M
recognizable to those who have been fire.
quenters of the well known resort,
This will be accomplished by the deco
rat1ons. A specimen design has been exc
cuted by E. A. Otto, and from it some idea
of the elaborate character of the decora-
tions planned by the executive committee
can be obtained. The scene presented is
one of several stage settings to be used in
producing the plays of Germanys two
immortal bards.
The decorators promise that the i'm
mense structure shall be entirely trans
formed. Not a glimpse of wooden siding,
roof, post or pillar will be allowed. All
will be disguised and concealed. With
each of the Schiller or Goeth flags the
stage settings and decorations will be
changed.
At a meeting of the executive commit
tee and delegates from the other associa-
tions to participate, Friday night, the
principal topic of discussion was the decor
atoms, and the extent to which the state of
the finances would allow the committee to
go. In view of the announcement re-
ceived the executive committee decided to
be liberal and by unanimous vote author
lied the different committees to expend up
to the amount of $500 in decorations, with
the reserving clause that the amount
could be increased should it be deemed
necessary.
The interest in the approaching event is
increasing daily. Already over thousand
ladies and gentlemen have been registered
as willing participators, active and other
wise, as may best suit the subcommittee
in charge of the various departments.
The encouragement financially is equally
as gratifying to those at the head of the
undertaking, and 1t is freely predicted the
success of the festival will be without a
precedent in San Francisco.
The executive committee has secured
rooms in the Johnson building, 100 Suffer

amount of attention. For the benefit of
those who would follow my advice l will
here condense the information | obtained
from a most reliable source: Shave suf-
ficient white CASTLE or ivory soap to make
a good sud, and throw into cold water, then
boil, and the soap will be entirely melted.
Pour into a perfectly clean vessel and
add cold water until you can easily put
your hands into it. If your linen has any

your fingers. Then dip it up and down

An old valet of the late Duke of Hamil-
ton gave the following suggestion to gen.
tleman: Before shaving rub the beard
well with good cold cream, follow this with
the solid end of soap and this in turn with
the hand, then lather. The beard will
come off twice as easily, leaving the face
very smooth.
