The side issues of the case bring in Cliff
Phillips as a bondsman and the friend of
a mum Der of people who are figuring in
other Police Court cases.
Phillips, an ex-conyict, came TO the
assistance of Hubrick and got him out of
Jail for the night, the bonds being ac-
cepted by Judge Campbell, although the
warrant for the arrest was issued by
Judge Low. The latter began an investi-
CATION of the bonds IN the morning and
Phillips Immediately returned his man
and withdrew his bond.
Across the corridor, in Judge Campbell's s
court, Cliff Phillips figured again in the
case of +. d. Middlekauff, who is charged
with assaulting Alice Owens in her room
at liz Kearny street last month.
The testimony of several physicians
showed that the woman had suffered no
injury.
Phillips was the man who conducted
Middlekauf TO the girls rooms where he
was made to spend some $50. Subse-
quently Alice Owens brought suit against
Middlekauf for $4,000 damages alleged to
have been sustained during the few hours
of revelry with Middlekauf. Cliff Phillips

with Chief Officer Shea. The quarrel was
renewed as the vessel was proceeding to

were damaged in the fracas, and as soon
as the Pomona reached port Doran re-
signed, while Shea was suspended pend

know all the facts of the case assert that
the captain was to blame.

ANOTHER CHINESE PLAY.

Now Comes Charles Ufrieh, the Jour
nalist, With His Celestial MAiden.''
The Chinaman will find himself cele-
brated in dramatic song as we'll as a butt
for the small jokers. Charles UIrich, the
well-known local journalist, has just COM
pieted a play founded upon the vagaries
and customs of the descendants of the land
OF the sun, and will give it the light in the
Oakland TheRter for the first time within
few days. 1t will then be seen at the
California Theater in this City, after which

The play has been called "a Celestial
Maiden" and those who have seen the
manuscript say ii is bound to make hit.
At any rate ]. Lou Hallett, a well.known
dramatic manager, has secured the priVi-
legeS to produce it in the West, and the
Frohmans are anxious to secure the East
ern rights.
OF course there is love in the pisce-
Chinese love-with wee All Fong as the
heroine. And then there is the swain,a Chi
natown merchant, who would marry her
and take her away to the land of rice and
chopsticks. But even the Celestials have
learned the old story, that the course of
true love never did run smoothly, and the
drama, for such it is, has this aphorism as
keynote. Miss Virginia Goodsell, the
young Oakland dramatic debutante, will
star In the leading part.

CLIFF PHILLIPS BOND.

Low Began an Investigation.
Frederick w. Hubrick was returned TO

liner, of having hit her over the head
with hatchet. He was released on bonds
Thursday, Cliff Phillips and another in
dividual going his sureties In the sum of
$1,000, but the sureties decided it would be
safer to return the defendant than to
stand the searchlight of investigation on
the bonds.
The case Is peculiar one, not so much
in the main proposition as it is in the side
issues.
Hubrick and the De Foine woman have
entertained close relationship for some
months, and he had decided 10 drop out
of that life.
She claims that he not only struck her
with hatchet when they parted, but he
threatened to kill her if she persisted in

LF-RATERS
NOW READY
Six New Yachts for the
Pacific Club to Be
Launched To-Day.
All Of Them Will Be Ready for
a Cruise Around the Bay
Tomorrow.
Changes Among the Masters of the
Pacific Coast Steamship Company
Captain DOran Resigns.

Mem bers of the Pacific Yacht Club will
be in full force around Meiggs wharf this
afternoon to witness the launching of the
new half-raters that have been just COM
pleted at Englebrechts yard. There are
six of the new class and all of them will
be put into the water about the same
time. 1t was at first intended 10 have
launched them yesterday afternoon, but
the yachtsmen decided not to take the
risk on their own shoulders, so postponed
the event until to-day. Masts, sails and
everything necessary are ready for the
small craft, and after they have been
towed to Sausalito they Will be at once
fitted out, and the chances are that all six
OF them will be out cruising tomorrow.
The half-raters are all exactly alike and
will be designated by nun bers and not by
names. They are % feet over all, IA feet
on the water line and feet beam. The
main boom is 20 feet long, with 9-foot
hoist in the mainsail. The mast will be
well forward and there will be small
bowsprit three feet long. thus allowing
the use OF a jib. The half-raters will be
decked all over with the exception of
cockpit, and as each boat will carry 500
pounds OF ballast and also q center-board
they should prove to be very stancn in a
stiff breeze. All of them will probably
have chance TO show what they are good
for to-m orrow.
The Oceanic Steamship Company's
steamer Moana is expected to arrive on
her maiden trip from Australia next
Thursday. Folsom-street wharf was to
have been ready for her by that time,
but the chances are that the block pave
ment in the center of the structure will
not be ready by that time, so the new
liner Will dock at Pacific-street wharf.
After landing her passengers, mail and
urgent cargo she will be moved to Fol-
som-street wharf, and after that all the
vessels OF the Oceanic Steamship Com
pany will dock there. Owing to the enor-
nous amount of traffic that has passed
over Pacifc-street wharfit has been found
necessary to brace the structure Big
tim bers are now being placed between the
concrete piers, and as soon as the job is
completed the wharf will be as good as
new.
Captain Doran of the steamer Pomona
has resigned his position, and Captain
Cousins of the Arcata will take the vessel
out this afternoon. Captain Reid, late of

artist, Fortune de Conte, who died under

lists in this City. Martin Hagan has un-
dertaken all the arrangements of the
funeral and expects to have number OF
artists act as pallbearers.
Mr.. do Conte left a numb OF his works

Sculptor Schm d Has Completed
His Model for One Of Four

way to the Entrance of the
Building.

The model of the aliegorical sculpture
that will adorn the first of the four coll
umns which will support the archway of
the entrance to the new CALL building has
Just been completed by Rupert Schmid,
the sculptor.
The artist is well satisfied with his work,
and has followed out the wishes of Mr.
Spreckels by using none but California
models in the masterpiece just com mpleted.
The shaft, of which this sculpture Will
form the chief part, will be one OF the
largest of its kind in the world. The fig
ures are all wrought out in heroic size,
seven feet high, and will appear in strong
relief around the column twelve feet in
circumference. Mr.. Schmid has presented
on this alIegorical pictures of commerce,
manufactures, science, art land agriculture.
Science is represented by an idealiZed
portrait and form of Miss Nolan, who
achieved fame as California beauty dur
ing the preliminaries incident to estab-
fishing the Midw winter Fair here. She is
attired in renaissance costume of simple
but telling effect, in her hand rests COM
pass, and at her feet is an owl resting on
two tones, sym mboiizing her character.
Miss Sybil Sanderson's features grace
the figure clasping hands with Science In
the character of Commerce. She is draped
in a rococo costume and is Joined to her
sister with laurel wreath.
Miss Kuhne Beveridge appears as the
idealization of Art, attired in a severe
Greek gown and holding in her hands the
brush and palette Signalling her profes-
sion.
Manufacture is portrayed by Miss Cor
inne, another OF California's beautiful
maidens, holding in her left hand a ham
mer, while partially disclosed from the
drapery at her feet appears portion of a
cogwheel.
Agriculture, ths ancient foundation OF
all trade, is pictured by Miss Minnie
Smaeger, atHred in a Louis Quatorze
robe, holding in her hand a sickle and
sheaf She is framed on either side by
stalks of sugar cane.
Mr.. Schmid has thrown his heart into
this work and declares that The CALL
building will be one of the rsost artistic
triumphs in architectural construction Of
which San Francisco can boast. Now that
the cast is finished be will Immediately
set artisans at work to reproduce it in
marble, and will personally superintend
the com pletion of the work.
