men had applied TO her in San Francisco

month. She orders Pecheu to have the
men rise at 6 and go TO work on schedule
time or discharge them and send them TO
her for their paw.

MASTER OF TWO SHIPS.
Captain Fordyce Has the Honor of
Commanding Two British Vessels
for the Present.

Captain Fordyce OF the British ship
Falls OF Haladale Is in peculiar position.
The Falls of Dee arrived here from Hong
kong July Is last. A cable from the own
ers awaited Captain Lock, informing him
that he was relieved OF his command and
to turn the ship over to Captain Fordyce.
The latter is therefore master of two ves-
sells and will remain as such until new
captain for the Falls of Dee can be sent
out from London. 1t is not given 10 every
master to command two of the finest ships

Hofman's Family Troubles
Will Not Be Aired
in Court.
Judge Campbell Reversed His
Decision in the Matter
Twice.
Arguments on the Admission of
Lewek's Testimony Take Up
the Days Session.

In the preliminary examin alton OF Figel
yesterday the entire session OF the court
was taken UP in argument as to whether
gard to the letter Hoffman had shown
him and the conversation Lewek had
with the deceased at that time, should be
admitted as evidence.
Wednesday Judge Campbell sustained
the objection of the prosecution to this
testimony, but General Barnes renewed
the argument On the subject yesterday
morning and a heated discussion of the
point of law resulted.
General Barnes and Judge Louder back
contended that the testimony was COM
petent, as showing that there was skele-
ton in Hoffman's family over which he
was constantly brooding, and that this
would show that he had motive for
suicide.
For the prosecution Judge Murphy and
Mr.. Ach argued that this evidence would
be hearsay and that Mr.. Leweks CONVEX
sation with Hoffman did not take place
near enough to the death of the latter to
be OF any use in showing his state OF mind
on the day of his death.
At the conclusion of the morning ses-
sion Judge Campbell ruled that the de-
tense should be allowed to introduce the
testimony to rebut that of the prosecution
which showed that Hoffman's family rela-
tions were happy.
The discussion was resumed by Judge
Murphy at the afternoon session and con-
tinued the remainder OF the day.
The prosecution cited mum ber of de-
cisons TO sustain their objection, and just
before the close of court Jude Campbell
reversed his decision given in the morn
ing and ruled that the testimony would
not be competent. He stated that he had
been rather doubtful as 10 the law on the
point, but from the authorities and cases
quoted he thought that evidence along
this line was incompetent, and that as he
had erred in his former decision, he had
nc hesitation in reversing himself and
sustaining the objection of the defense.

WILL WORSHIP
IN SWEDISH
Scandinavian Baptists Are
Building a Pretty
Church.
Will Probably Be Ready for
Dedication About
Christmas.
First Church of Its Kind in the
City-A Central Loca-
tion

The Swedish Baptists of this City are
building themselves pretty church on
Tenth street. near Folsom, and it is ex-
pected that by Septem ber the basement
will be ready to hold service in. The dedi
cation of the entire church will not take
place until Christmas.
There is only this one congregation oil
Swedis Baptists in this City, and hitherto
the services have taken place in a hall on
Tenth street, between Mission and Mar.
ket. The flock has grown considerably
during the last two years, and about a
year ago it was decided that the congrega-
tion was of sufficient size to warrant the
purchase Of lot, with view to building.
Early in the present year the site of the
church that is now in the course OF erec.
tion was purchased, and in June the
building was commenced.
The new church is to be OF wood, with
a concrete foundation. and it will cover
an area of fortv-fou feet by seventy feet.
The basement will contain one large room
suitable for Sunday school or soc al pur.
I poses, as we'll as several small rooms
kitchens and janitor's room.
The church prorer will have seating
capacity OF 450. There will be gallery
over the main entrance, as we'll as q sm all
the choir. 1t is not yet quite decided
whether the building will be fitted up with
pews or with opera-chairs. The interior
will be finished off with natural redwood,
and although plain it is expected that fhs
general appearance will be very neat and
pretty. Electro lighting will be placed
throughout the building. The exterior
will be principally of wood, painted, but
across the front will be wide paneling oil
terra Gotta in raised relief. The architec,
is w. O. Peterson, one of the active church
me m bers.
The average atte ldauce at the Swedish
Baptist Chutch in its present quarters is
a bout 100, but although not large the con-
gregation is Jealous, as the fact of its SUBJ
scrlptions testifies. The lot is entirely ?
paid for, and the greater part of the
money for the building is already sub
scribed. The cost Of the church has not
vet been exactly estimated, for some
notifications and Improvements will
probably be made in carrying out the de-
tails.
The congregation has been in existence
about eight years. Rev. Charles Palm,
the present pastor, came here early in
January from Evanston, ILL.,. where he
had ministered to Swedish Baptist flock
for over seven years, and where he had
been instrumental in building church.
He is a graduate of Morgan Park Sem
mary, Him ois
No special services will take place when
the congregation adjourns its services to
the basement, early next month, but
elaborate arrangements are already being
planned for the dedication ceremonies al
Christmas.

Proprietor.

Proprietor.
The handsome Norman's Cafe, under the
Baldwin Hotel, has changed hands and
hereafter will be known as the Bald win
Grotto, under the management of W.
Began.
The reputation of Mr.. Began as a caterer
is too we'll and favorably known to require
comm endation. For many years ne was
the proprietor OF the Odd Fellows Grotto
and for the past six years has been the
proprietor of the Lou vre, at the corner OF
Powell and Eddy streets.
1t is pretty place, this Baldwin Grotto.
and something of a revelation in the con-
venience OF its appointments. There is a
sweeping double stairway OF W hite marble
leading down from the corner of Market
ana Powell streets to the main entrance
which is f1anked by the fresh dark green
of choice tropical foliage and small decor
tive palms, boldly set off by the panels of
beautifully colored costly marble benin d
them.
Then on Powell street, Immediately on
posite the Colum bia Thea er, there is a
smaller entrance for ladies, with screened
interior passage-way leading to the din
ing-room.

and service OF tie new grotto the finest in

WANT OPEN STREETS.

Precita Valley Sill in Search of a Gem
eral Line of Improvem ents.
The improvement club which looks
after the interests of the Precta Valley
District is determined to have that por-
ton of the City improved If it can. This
club has petitioned the Supervisors for a
sidewalk ON the east side of Precita
avenue, from Alabama to Folsom street.
1t also requests the Street Superintendent
to force the grading on Harrison street,
between Twenty-sixth and Precita avenue,
which has been let 10 Buckman Bros. for
some time, but which has not been ad-
vanced as it should TO meet the wishes OF
The property-owners.
Another demand is being made for the
opening of Franconia (formerly Figaro)
street. This would be continuation OF
BRYANT street If opened, and would give
to the people on the eastern side Of the
hill an outlet to the main thoroug
leading into the business portion of the
City.
A petition strongly worded has been for
warded to the Supervisors requesting that
BODY to either fill in Bernal Park or turn
it over to the Fish commissioners before
the winter rains set in, as 1t will then be
in fine condition TO be used as fish
hatchery.
