COURSINC AT THE TWO PARKS.
INGLESIDE.

One of the largest crowds of the season saw some excellent sport at the Ingleside Coursing Park yesterday. and the old time favorites went down in rapid order. Susie, Old Glory, Connemara, Log Boy and Seminole went under, much to the disgust of the form players. who simply poured their money into the pool boxes. It was thought by many that Log Boy would defeat Susie in the third ties, out the trick was left to Patria. who sold a to favorite. The hares were as fleet as the hounds, and. in consequence, the majority of the courses were long and exciting. Interest throughout the day seemed to center on Susie and Old Glory, but their defeat caused attention to be turned to Mystic Maid and Patria, who ran the final.
 Much excitement was created over the consolation stake and the final between from start to finish. Log Boy, who has but recently graduated from the puppy class, Is doing splendid work, and it is predicted that he will carry off some good money in the near future.

EXPLANATION.

ures at station indicate minimum tempera ture for the days those underneath it. If any, the amount of rainfall or of melted snow in inches and hundredths during the asst twelve hours. 1s0bars, CT solid lines. connect points of equal air pressure; isotherms, or dotted lines, equal temperature. The word high means high barometric pressure and is usually accompanied by fair weather: low refers to low pres sure and Is usually preceded and accompa 1ed by cloudy weather and rains Lows usually first appear on the Washington coast. When the pressure Is nigh in the interior and low along the coast, and the isobars extend north and south along the coast, rain is probab ble but when the low is inclosed with isobars of marked curvature, rain south of Oregon is inn probable. With high in the vicinity of Idaho. and the pressure falling to the Cali fornia coast, warmer weather may be expected in summer and colder weather in winter. The reverse of these conditions will produce an opposite result.

Rev. R. H. Sawyer Was Threatened From the
 Congregation.
MT. Sawyer Had Denounced the Organization as a
 "Bubble."
WILL FORM A NEW BODY,
Most of the Congregation Promise to Follow the New
 Leader.

OAKLAND, April TO- - The Central Christian Church of this city will reor- ganize and adopt new name as soon as possible. An attempt Is to be made to pay off the indebtedness, which amounts to $500, before the step Is taken, but this decision was reached at largely at- tended meeting of the congregation this morning.
 Rev. R. H. Sawyer of Montana, who succeeded Rev. Edwards Davis, resigned and refused to preach tonight or any other time for the present organization. The two hours session of discussion was closed when Gideon Davis, brother of the late minister, walked up to the front of the edifice and in the midst of crowd shook his clenched fist in the pastors face and said: You have failed to prove your remarks, and you have no right to say sucn things if you cannot prove them If you keep this work up you will have to leave the town, for the people will utes after you came into this city, and
 The pastor had made the following statement concerning the church:
 have found this church in deplorable con- diton. It is reported that l said 1t was "a hiss and by-word in this city, I have not D so or rsay m is also reported that l am indignant regarding my call here l am not I believe that it was. was Ignorant of the state of affairs or dishonest. I look upon them as Christian men and women, and believe that they must have been ignorant. The church was nothing but great bubble, which has burst, leaving nothing but people, not even an organization
 l want to be separated from this dis reputable state of affairs and if there are sufficient people to go out from this place and organize church. who want me to stay and preach to them, l willing to sacrifice self and do it, but will never preach again for the Central Christian Church.
 James B. McArthur declared that MT. Sawyer had insulted the church and every member and proposed that he be given an opportunity to prove his assertions, but his resignation was accepted and a call rendered to MT. Sawyer to continue his preaching to the congregation pending reorganization, which was decided upon by a majority of the members present.
 Tonight the congregation held a lengthy session, when Deacon and Mrs. The deacon presented his resignation to granted, the resignation rejected.
 Mrs. Van Pelt, Mrs. Gracey, the Misses Scadden, McArthur and Dodson were ap- pointed a committee to raise funds to pay the indebtedness, after which over forty signed a pledge to support MT. Sawyer ganization. These and others who de- sire to join them will meet soon. organ ize and incorporate a new Christian Church.
 That Central Church." said MT. Davis, in talking of the affair tonight, 'is an aggregation of a class of people every man cannot handle. My brother held them well in hand, but this man Sawyer can't do 1t. He sees they have got away with him, hence this kick. The church is sure to go to pieces now as far as l can SeG.'

 Spurned

PORTLAND, Ore, April 1o.-valentine Bauer, an eccentric mddle-aged German living near Hillsboro. this morning ell ptieG the contents of a double -bar-eled shotgun into the shoulder of Mrs. Lizzie Overroeder, a widow who lives nearby, infiicting a wound which will probably prove fatal.

 Mrs. Overroeder's husband was at church when the shooting occurred, and she was alone in the house with two children. Bauer entered the back door and without a.word of warning fired on her. No cause is assigned for the action, and Bauer is at present endeavoring to play the insanity dodge, talking wildly whenever questioned. Once he said he was shooting her for revenge. He has been endeavoring to secure the woman s good will for some time. and she has constantly repelled him. The woman is at present unconscious, and her recovery is despaired of.

TRIED TO HANG HERSELF.
An Insane Woman Attempts Suicide
 in the Receiving Hospital.

A middle aged woman giving her name as Mollie Meyers created considerable excitement in the vicinity of Turk and Mason streets last night by loudly de- claring that man had attempted to murder her. Her hands were covered with blood and in a wild manner she begged the passersby to save her. A policeman was summoned, and realizing the woman was insane. he had her removed to the Receiving Hospital, where she was placed in a padded cell. Shortly afterward Dr. Fitzgibbon happened to pass the cell in which she was confined and discovered the unfortunate woman in the act of hanging herself with a portion of her night dress. Summoning several attend ants, Dr. F'itzgibbon had them search her to prevent her from injuring herself.

 VALPARAISO, April 10.-During the stay of the United States gunboat Ma rietta at this port none of her crew were allowed to come ashore because of fear that they might have trouble with the Spaniards here. It is now stated that the battle-ship Oregon will not come for the same reason.
 To me it seems such fears are with out foundation. The Spanish colony here is moderate in it's utterances on the present relations of the United States and Spain, and the likelihood of trouble would have been remote. unless provoked bv sailors
