YACHTS AT VALLEJO. Fewer Boats Than Usual Attend the
 Interclub Cruise.

The third annual cruise of the Pacific Inter-club Yacht Association was held on July and g. Owing to the fact that the Corinthians had a cruise to Martinez in their programme for the 2d, there were by no means so many yachts at anchor at Vallejo as last year. The breeze on the night of the 2d from Sausalito and Tib- uron up to Red Rock was somewhat fluky, but from that point on was steady. The following yachts left Sausalito on Saturday evening: Commodore Dr. T. l.. Hilrs sloop Cygnus, having on board pr. and Mrs T. L. Hill, Mrs. c. B. Hill, Messrs. E. c, Bartlett, z. Rieyeley and Arthur Inkersley; Vice Commodore G.. T. S. Whites sloop Will O the Wisp, Arthur D. Naylor's sloop Twilight, A.: Suther- lands sloop Catherine and E. Newhall s schooner Virginia Yesterday, morning, in addition to most of these, there lay at anchor at Vallejo Fred Kings sloop Lois, the yawl F''rolic R. R. rHommedieu,s s Pawn It was expected that several Cali fornia yachts would join the rendezvous and that the number would be largely in- creased by the addition of the Corinthian fleet on it's return from Montezuma Slough.

CAUSE OF DEATE IN DOUBT. Cornelius Cronin May Have Died From Heart Trouble or
 Broken Neck.

Cornelius Cronin died at his home at 7O5 Tehama street last evening under cir cumstances which leave a doubt as to whether death was due to natural causes or fall resulting in his neck being broken.
 Cronin had lunch with his family late in the afternoon, and, after rising from the table, went to the back porch, where he stood for a few moments. A noise of something falling brought his wife to the door and she found her husband lying on the ground in an unconscious condition. Examination proved that he was dead and the Coroners office was notified. At the earnest request of Mrs. Cronin the body was not taken to the Morgue, but to an undertaking establishment, where an autopsy will be held.
 Deputy Coroner Hallett believes that Cronin was attacked with heart failure which caused him to fall down the steps but MT. Halett says there is a chance that he may have slipped and in falling broke his neck

PATRIOTISM HIS THEME.
Timely Remarks to Members of the Boys Brigade.

pr. John A. B. Wilson, pastor of the Howard-Str Methodist Church, delfv- cred a stirring sermon on Patriotism before large and attentive congregation last evening composed in part of the young people who compose the Boys Brigade. He based his remarks on Prov erbs, xiv :34: Righteousness exalteth a nation, but sin is a reproach to any peo- ple." In part he said:
 "The implication is that the exaltation of nation is desirable. but that moral evil prevents while righteousness promotes it. Love means the desire and effort to uplift the object loved. War and courage in battle is one way but by no means the only way, of promoting the in- terests of our country"
 The speaker then called attention to Dewey and Hobson as being believers in Christ and of their bravery in times of peril. He outlined Hobsons character and pointed him out to his young listeners as the ideal soldier and Christian. In clos ing he said:
 "Young men, do not force the opportun- ity of doing great things. Get ready for the move by discipline and devotion to the unromantic duties of your station, and if the hour never comes you will have increased the average of national righteousness by the quality of your own personality, and if the hour comes 1t will find you ready"

He Robbed a Woman of
 Her Purse.
THROWS AWAY THE SPOILS
CLEVER CAPTURE OF A WELL
 KNOWN PICkPOCKET.
John Comerford Runs a Great -Sace, but Succeeds in Landing in the Tanks-A Desperate
 Crook.

While visiting Sutro Heights yesterday afternoon Mrs. Dunn of 3793 Seventeenth street had her pocket picked of a purse containing $29 80. Suspecting young man who stood near her, she informed Police Officer George Douglass, who pro- ceeded to arrest the thief.
 The latter, evidently realizing that Mrs. Dunn had suspected him, took to his heels, followed by the officer During the chase he threw away the purse, which. was picked up by a citizen. After a run of several blocks Douglass succeeded in overhauling the thief. At the City Prison he gave his name as John Comerford and was charged with grand larceny. His companion, who gave his name as Charles Coulter, was also arrested by Detectives Egan and Gibson and charged with va- grancy.
 Saturday night Gibson and Egan de- tected Comerford in the act of picking a womans pocket on Market street They started to arrest him.. when he broke away from them and tucked down Mar ket street, pursued by the detectives. In his flight. he knocked down several women. soldier, hearing the cry of Stop thief!' attempted to stop him, but in doing so ripped up Detective Gibson, who was almost within arms reach of the thief. After regaining his feet Gib- son continued the pursuit, finally compel ling Comerford to seek refuge in a build ing on Market and Stockton streets Gib- son 1OllOWeu nl1n, ana as ne was dDoul lO place him under arrest Comerford jumped through an open window to the ground below, a distance of tweny-f1ve feet. For tunately for him he was not injured Gibson immediately ran from the build ing, expecting to see the pickpocket lying in the street a fit subject for the hospital doctors, as he expressed it. To his sur prise, however, Comerford was not to be found While the detective was leaving the building, as 1t was afterward learned, the bold thief, after picking up his hat, which he had dropped, ran along Stockton street and made good his escape.

HEAVY FOG AND NO WIND
THE CONTEST LITTLE MORE
 THAN A DRIFT.
Occupants of the Two Vessels Row. ally Entertained on Their Ar rival at Santa
 Cruz.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SANTA CRUZ, July B. Shortly after Il o'clock this morning the yacht Aggie hove in sight, winning the race of the Pacific Yacht Club. She was followed a few minutes later by the Lurline.
 The cruise ws-s most uns isfactory one. The yachts started from San Francisco yesterday morning. The tug Alert to l the Lurline and the tug Sea Witch toS. d the Aggie to a mile beyond the lighthouse boat. They cast off and the race was commenced in earnest. The yachts immediately lost sight of each other in the dense fog which prevailed. The fog lasted for one hour and when it lifted the Lurline was two or three miles ahead of the Aggie. Soon after another dense fog bank ap- peared, enveloping the yachts until 9:3C o'clock this morning. During the night both yachts were becalmed and floun- dered at sea. Neither had any idea where the other was, but both were about nine miles from Santa Cruz, up the coast opposite La Guna. The Aggie had the advantage, being closer to the shore.
 There was very little ind and the boats drifted down the coast, the Aggie arriving at 11:2S this morning. If the wind was good, it is conceded, the Lur- line would have won by about three hours. The race really was a drift the entire distance, except for about fifteen miles.
 The elegant prize offered by citizens of Santa Cruz, case of pearl-handled knives, forks, spoons, etc., Is now the property of the Aggie.
 The yachts will leave for home on Tuesday morning, remaining in the harbor here over the Fourth. On board the Lurline are Hon. W. W. Foote, Judge Fred Henshaw, J. W. Reid, Her vey Fortman, A. B. Spreckels and W. S. Leake. On the Aggie are E. Wilke, w Northrup Cowles, w. T.. Holms and C. A. Williams.
 The yachtsmen were royalty enter tained at dinner tonight at the hospi- table home of J. P. Smith at Sunshine Villa, on Beach Hill. A delightful evening was spent.
