THE CHAMPION
At THE CHUTES
James J. Corbett Is Cheered
by Thousands of
Admirers.
His Perfect Condition Is Dis.
Played in a Bout With
Jack McVey.
The Men Who Will Box on Wash.
ington's Birthday Are Now in
Training.

James J. Corbett, apparently a perfect
specimen of physical manhood, intro
duced himself yesterday afternoon and
night to many thousands of people who
crowded at the Chutes to greet him.
1t was not the "Pompadour" Jim that
they saw some months ago in an unsatls-
factory fistic encounter with Tom Shar-
key, but fine, active, powerful and WELL
trained athlete.
These two Corbetts are so different that
1t almost passes apprehension that they
can be the same man.
When Jim was here before and he gave
Sharkey an opportunity 10 make a pame
in the pugilistic world which name Dan
Stuart, the great fight promoter, values at
5000. he held the sailor lad too cheaply.
He did not train in the least for the en-
gagement, or If he did, as he said him
self, it was on French dinners.
An hour before the contest Jim ate a
dish of shrimp salad, and Sharkey's terri
fic onslaught caused the champion to re-
gret he had INDUCED in the delicacy at
such an undue hour.
However, that was Corbett of the past,
and the Corbett of the present is the
other.
He is in great fettle, such as a thorough
bred might be on the eve of s. big race.
The people who crowded about him yes
terday realized this and bv their cheers
and plaudits evinced the delight they felt
at the observance.

Miss Margaret Craven
Brings Stories of a
Pleasant Journey.
She Liked Egyptians and Also

danese.
Times Are Hard in Italy Because So
Few Americans Are Go ng
ABR DAD.

Mrs. Nettie Craven was one of the hap
piest women in San Francisco last night
because of the arrival of her daughter,
Miss Margaret, from three months tour
through Italy and Egypt.
Miss Craven had a delightful tour, but
was pleased to return to her home once
more. She made a careful study of noted
places while away, and particularly OF the
races of men she met.
II found every body in Italy com plain
ing of hard times" she SAID, land the rea-
son given was queer. being sort of re-
hex action from America. The Italian
beggars would say to one, Times are hard
here because Americans are. not travel
ing The old rule enunciated by Mark
Twain in Innocents Abroad still held
true. Everywhere the price of an article
is one thing for an American and another
for the remainder of mankind. 1t seems
to me the Italians are in a bad way finan-
cially, and the lower classes are dishonest
and vindictive as WELL"
Miss Craven was particularly delighted
with her voyage up the Nile, where she
was fortunate in meeting many travellers
whose advice was of considerable value.
81 went from Cairo up the Nile as far as
the first cataract" she said, land on the
voyage 1 saw a mum Der of English soldiers
from Khartoum. Our party took great
care to study the tombs and ruins, noting
as we went The mutitudes of camels and
donkeys. We fshed in the Nile and
caught catfishes in large numbers. On
Christmas day we decorated our boats
with palms"
The young lady tourist was much pleased
In studying the various races she en-
countered, particularly the Soudanese,
Bedouins aud EthIopians.
THE Soudanese are black little bow
legged chaps" she said, particularly
noted for their fighting qualities. They
are as savage as bulldogs and the sigh of
blood in battle makes them uncontrol-
la BILE. They call themselves black English
men, and it was too funny 10 see each
black soldier with red fez and white linen
uniform marching TO the tune 'He Golden
Hair Was Hanging Down Her Back but
few saw the humor OF it."
Miss Craven thinks the Egyptians a
superior race. 1.-THE men are tall and
fine looking" she said, land the women

COMMUNE'S anniversary
1t Will Be Specially Celebrated
by the Socialists of San
Francisco.
Governmental PaternaliSm Dis
cussed Last Night at the Regular
Weekly Meeting.

The new and larger hall now occupied
by the socialists at 80 Eddy street was
packed at the regular Sunday night meet
ing. The speaker of the evening was G..
Benham and his topic was, Government
Paternalism."
He criticized work in peniten tiaries, say
ing: "If you commit crime IN this
country we will see that you are given
work and are properly cared for. That is
the position of the States of North Caro-
lima and South Carolina to-day
By several illustrations the speaker
sought to show that the Government is
now to limited extent paternal. Owner
ship of railroads, he said, had saved in
Germany 20 per cent of the lives of en-
ployes, and he said that for no other rea-
son the system is worth adopting in this
country. One hundred ana fifty pounds
of newspapers were carried across the con-
tinent by railroads for 1 cent a pound, but
it cost man who weighed the same or
less SIS to 500 to make the trip.
The reason, he said, that parcels by m all
are limited to four pounds in weight, was
that the monopolistic express com panies
wanted to carry the heavy packages
The topic was then thoroughly dis
cussed.
The Socialists are making arrangements
to cele ebrate the anniversary of the rising
of the Paris commune on March IA mex t.
There will, in all pro obability, be no parade,
but Metropolitan Temple, or some other
large hall, will be rented and a literary,
musical and oratorical programme suit
able to the occasion will be rendered.

The Congregation of St,
Luke's Subscribes
Literally.
The New Church No Longer a
Dream, but a B!issful
Reality.
The New Structure to Cost $50, 900
1t Will Be Erected on the Present
Site, Van Ness and Clay.
1t took but a few words and few min

1t took but a few words and few min
utes at st. Luke's Church yesterday morn
ing to raise $4,000 toward the erection of
a new building for the congregation.
At the meeting, which was held just
after the morning services, Senior Warden
A. N. Drown took the floor and explained
the reason for the necessity of new build
ing. He said the object of the meeting
was to discover the feeling of the congre-
CATION toward the plan proposed.
"The church, said he, ''is but poorly
ventilated there is not room enough and
m sure there is not person who enters
the building who does not feel apologetic.
Other parishes have put up elegant new
buildings, and are we less able to bui Id a
new church than these other psrishes2 1t
is not to be understood tnat all the money
must be paid at once. Take a year or two
years, or even longer if you like.
Now, without saying any more, there
are just two questions to be asked: Do
want a new church? and, How much do
want it? Now ali those in favor of the
new church SO signify by rising"
The whole congregation rose as one,
and the new church was decided upon.
Henry Scott then rose and said that, al
though he was not memb ber of the Epis-
cOpal cnurcnS ne tOVeu ot- Luxe 5, ana
was willing to lend all the assistance he
possibly could. This church is thirty
years old, and that Is about the life OF a
wooden building" said he, land III sta-t
the ball a-rolling and subscribe $4,000 for
myself and $1,000 for my wife.
Mr.. Drown subscribed $4,000 and his
wife $4,000, and in less than half an hour
over $50 900 was raised.
A com mmittee of five was appointed to
cooperate with the vestrymen. The
members are Captain Simpson, A. H.
Phelps, ]. P. Langhorne, Ralph Daniels
and A. B. Ford. They will meet Tuesday
evening and discuss other plans tor rails
ing more money.
The present church was built thirty
years ago on Pacific avenue as a mission
ary church; thirteen years ago it was
moved to its present site. 1t is low
wooden building, and looks rather out of
place among the beautiful residences
springing up all around it. Several plans
for the new church have been submitted
by different architects, but none have
been accepted.

1t was truly a great day at the Chutes.
Before noon it was doubtful whether
Corbett would keep his engagement to
spar with Jack McVey, his partner. The
log and drizzling rain made every body
uncom Portable, and the grounds were
soggy in the extreme. Under ordinary
circumstances, they would not have been
opened at all, but it was different this
time A couple of thousand people, men,
boys and women, tramped through the
slush and clamored for admittance. They
were allowed inside the enclosure without
paw, for it was almost positive then that
the cham pion pugilist would not put in an
appearance.
Later on the clouds rolled by and sum
shine frightened things up. Press Agent
Phil Hastings, who had been running the
town over for Corbett, found him and re-
ceived his assurance that he would fulfill
his engagement. This glorious news was
telephoned to the grounds, whereupon the
5000 deadheads were herded and marched
out side TO face the ticket-sellers.
By the time the sparring event of the
day was ripe there were 10 600 people on
the grounds, every soul of them crushing
and jamming TO get near the platform in
the open air. 1t was a good natured
crowd, withal, and hundreds stood bare
headed so as to give those behind them a
better view.
OF course where there is such a throng
of anxious humanity, pushing and shov-
ing on the border of lake, some few un-
fortunates fell in and we're fished out wet
and forlorn. But this only added to the
enjoyment OF theothers.
The usual programme of amusements
was carried out and shortly before 5
O'Clock Corbett and McVey put in an ap-
pearance in ring costume, excepting that
they wore tights.
1t was only an exhibition that they
gave, just such passage at arms as the
two men have given scores of times
There was no fighting, nor were there any
hard blows. Corbett showed his wonder
ful ducking powers and his speedy leg
action. McVey did his part well. He
ing them to his partner, who always got
his head out of reach.
The public was pleased, however, with
three rounds of this kind and they were
liberal with their praise.
Corbett leaves this evening at O'Clock
for Reno where he will give an exhibition
tomorrow night. He will be accom- panied
by his brother Harry, Jack McVey and
Joe Corbett.
Billy Delaney, who is Corbett's chief
trainer. will not leave here until the night
of the 23d, when he will be accompanied
by big Jim Jeffries, the Los Angeles
heavyweight, who is to be the main
sparring partner of the champion.
There is not much betting on the COM
ing contest and there is not likely to be
yet for a while, until the gladiators are
located at work in their respective train
ing quarters. In the meantime parties
are being formed to leave this City, Oak
land and San Jose day or two before the
fight, in special cars, so as to arrive there,
take the mill in and return home ali
inside of four days.

Commanded Hawaiian so1disrs

Colonel R. H. McLain of New York City, late
salaried commander of the First Regiment
National Guard of Hawaii, is at the California
Hotel on his way East, having just arrived
here from Honolulu, where. on January % he
resigned his military position after a salisiac-
tory service OF two years. He left with testi-
monlals of esteem and letters of commenda-
tion from his regiment and from President t
Dole for his efficiency in organizing and per-
tecting the Hawaiian military. Until 1888,
when he resigned aud went to Europe. he was,
after his graduation from Annapolis, an officer
In the United States navy. Upon the occas on
of General Grants funeral in 1885, he acted
as adjutant general. There is little Immediate
need now, he says. for the Hawaiian so,diery,
as the old hostile feeling among the natives
has abated and annexation to the United
States is generally the most hoped-for and
talked-of movement.

FIGHTERS IN TRAINING.
The Men Who VIII Box on the 22d
Are Rapidly Getting Into
Condition.

Condition.
The fighters who are signed 10 box at
the California Clubs entertainment at
Woodwards Pavilion on the evening of
Washington's birthday are rounding into
shape and are beginning to wear the
drawn faces that tell of good condition.
At the Six-mile House on the San Bruno
road Jeffries, the genial and quiet Los
Angeles lad who is to go to Carson to aid
in training Corbett as soon as his engage
ment with Stelzner is settled, puts in
twelve to fifteen miles a day on the road
IN addition to the gymnasium work, and
says that he is getting into better fix
every day.
Under Patsy Corrigan's watchful eye he
has taken off twenty-six pounds in the
last five days, and will reduce still further
before the bullding-up process begins.
Soldier Walker and Jack Golf went out to
re-enforce Corrigan yesterday and will be
with the Los Angeles fighter in the ring.
Billy Smith, the willing Australian
boxer, is also at the Six Mile House, with
Jack Hill as trainer, and looks fit to fight
tonight ii necessary. Smith is glutton
for work, and feels confident OF winning
whether the match ends in knockout or
decision.
The two men and their trainers form a
jolly combination that keeps things going
at lively pace in the usually quiet resort.
Spider Kelly, who is TO fight ten rounds
with Lon Agnew. is working like beaver
at the Ocean Beach, and thinks that he
will be in as good condition as he ever was
in his life when the appointed dav arrives.
de has grievance against Agnew that
he hopes TO settle satisfactorily to himself.
When the pair were matched some time
ago Kelly developed fine collection of
Jobs comforters" that prevented him
from going on with the matc ch, and Agnew
insinuated that Kelly's affection was put
on to get out of the fight.
The Spider feels that he must have re-
venge for this, and intends to take it out
of the Chicago boys hiue.
Henry Peppers, who is matched with
Smith. is with Kelly and training m ore or
less. The colored man does not take
kindly to hard work, but has little super
fuous flesh and generally appears in the
ring in fair condition.
Lon Agnew, always in good condition,
is putting on the finishing touches and
improving his wind at the Acme Club,
