THE BLACK WAS NOT GAME. Harry Woods Was Too Much for the
 Colored Fighter, Ben Lewis.

The Excelsior Athletic Club of Eighth and Folsom streets gave very interest ing athletic entertainment last evening which was witnessed by a tolerably large gathering.
 Frank Smith gave very clever exhibi ton of slack wire walking and the con- tortionist, Louis Solomon, also did well. Comic songs by R. Hanson and a cracker eating match between six young lads amused the spectators while the boxers were making ready for fistic engagements which were as follows: Four-round bouts between Billy Lawlor and Billy Hogan, Tom Devine and P. Lynch, D. Hughes and L. Otts, G. Kelly and J. Duffy, Joe Ken nedy and J. Stelzner.
 The event of the evening was to have been an eight-round contest between Harry Woods and Ben Lewis (colored). but the last-named boxer grew tired of the game in the. second round when he was countered heavily on the jaw, and after going down twice he remained on all-fours in his corner until counted out
 In the first round Woods hit Lewis in the groin, but a claim of foul was not al- lowed and Lewis then lost courage and afterward put up a very poor argument.
 The club will give first-class eight round contest at its next entertainment.

galvanized iron. What merit there was in this contention may be seen by glan- cling at the paragraph of the specified tionS quoted above. Nevertheless, the Board of Harbor Commissioners and Architect Swain were appealed to and after some delay the latter professed to find on the plans some crows feet that to his professional eye seemed to indicate that it had not been the inten- ton of the architect to cover the dis puted walls with galvanized iron.
 This being determined, it only re- mained for the Harbor Commissioners to act. This they did by authorizing the contractor to go ahead and cover the disputed walls with galvanized iron for which work they agreed to pay him, and did pay him, not quite $3000. It was necessary to pay him a few dollars less than S3000, because the law requires that no contract can be let for a sum greater than 5000 without ad- Vertising for bids. To advertise for bids for work that had already been advertised and contracted and paid for would have given the snap away.
 The investigation into the galvanized iron contract has not progressed any further than this except that it is known that the contractor failed to cover the bottoms of the long gallery and the galleries leading from the sec ond story to the ferry slips with gall vanized iron, as called for by the con- tract. This involves a matter of thousand or more dollars.
 That the Board of Harbor Commits sioners and Architect Swain have full power to compel a contractor to fulfill the terms of his contract is shown by the following paragraphs from the specifications under which the contract for the galvanized iron work was let:
 Should the contractor at any time dur ing the progress of said work refuse or neglect to supply suff1ciency of mate rials or workmen the said Harbor Com missioners shall have the power to pro- vide materials and workmen, after three days notice in writing being given to finish said work. and the expense so in- cured shall be deducted from the amount of the contract.
 If the contractor shall vary from the specifications or drawings in the form or quality of his work or in the amount or value of the material therein used the architect shall be at liberty at any time

HIS RIG HELD
 FOR REVENUE Horse and Wagon of G. w. K. DaubS Taken
 by Policeman.
Placed in Dr.. Westphal'S Stable and a Dollar Demanded
 for It's Keeping.
The owner Was Poor and His Prop ertv Is Now in the Pound and
 May Be Sold.

Next Friday the Health and Police Committee of the Board of Supervisors will consider the application Of c. w. K. Daubs. an almost penniless peddler, who lives in a humble home at 171s Washing ion street to recover his horse and wagon which are now in the custody or the Poundkeeper. An interesting little story accompanies the taking of the ami mai and its load from it's owner and It's subseouent transfer to the city's animal prison.
 Daubs Is a painter by trade, but some time ago he was thrown out of employ ment. AS he could get nothing to do he purchased a horse and wagon with bor- rowed money and set to work On the afternoon of the 7th inst, while passing the Union Iron Works, he applied for a position as a painter. He was put to work with a gang painting the bottom of ship, and knowing that he would be working only a few hours he hitched his horse beside the road. In the afternoon when his work was over he went to get his horse and wagon, and saw to his dls- may a policeman on the seat ielsureiy driving toward the Twentieth-street po- lice station. ,
 II followed the wagon to the station said Daub last evening, and demanded my property. My request was refused and a short time later the rig was taken to Dr. WestphaTs stables opposite the City Hall I went to the stable and de manded the horse and wagon again, but Dr. Westphal informed me that must first pay him S1 for the care of the rig only had $1 65, and as I had family at home to care for I could not meet the de mand and informed Dr. WeStphal so. II made no difference, he said. would

FRIGHTENED
 AWAY BY HIS
 SCREAMING Bold Attempt of Two Men to Rob Her man Bunker. Attacked Shortly After Leaving the Oakland

 Assaulted.
ASSAILANTS IDENTIFIED.
They Are Said to Have Recently Held Up Another
 Citizen.

Herman Bunker, living at 169 Minna street, had an exciting experience with footpads Monday night Accompanied by two friends he crossed the bay, in tending to pay a social visit. He re- turned on the g o'clock boat and as he walked up Market street he was at tackled by two men, one of whom struck him with his clenched fist, felling him to the ground. While lying prostrate one of his assailants proceeded to search his clothing for valuables. AS he had a gold watch and chain and considerable money in his possession. Bunker, realizing he was in the hands of desperate men. lustily shouted for help. A police officer heard his screams, and. as he went to his rescue. the robbers, evidently becoming frightened, hurriedly left the scene. One of them in his haste to get away dropped his hat, which was subse- quently found by the police. Last night Bunker visited police headquar- terS and told the story of the attempted robbery.
 He describes one of the men as being about 45 years of age, feet inches in height and had a dark mustache. He wore a gray suit of clothes and dark slouch hat, which was pulled down over his eyes.
 The companion, he says, was about 20 years of age, 5 feet 3 inches in height. He wore a cheap gray suit and a black slouch hat Bunker is positive that he can identify his assailants in case they are arrested.
 short time ago a citizen, whose name the police refused to divulge, was held up in the same vicinity and robbed of gold watch and chain and consid- erable money His description of the robbers tallied exactly with that given of the men who assaulted Bunker.
 'I had disembarked from the boat" remarked Bunker when telling his story, "and concluding that little ex- ercise would not do me any harm, started to walk up Market street to my home. It was about o'clock, and when I reached Davis street I mo- ticed two men, whose faces were partly concealed by the hats they wore stand ing In a doorway. Thinking that they were waiting for somebody, I passed on.
 When a few feet from them they emerged from the doorway and started to follow me. After overtaking me, one of them struck me a terrific blow in the jaw. I fell on the sidewalk, and the robbers, evidently concluding that the blow had rendered me hors de com bat. proceeded to search me. Just then I Justify screamed for help, which had the effect of frightening them away"

 Architect Swain is not pleased with the turn affairs have taken. He says that the result Is likely to be that the impression will go abroad that he is a designing party to the thievery charged in connection with the con- struction of the ferry building.
 AS the architect of the board" he said, it is my duty to see that the contractors do their work according to the plans and specifications under which their contracts were secured It is also my duty to attend to all details in connection with any changes in the plans or specifications that may be contemplated or agreed upon. In do- ing this l have endeavored to use my best judgment and to have in view the best interests of the State.
 Every change that has been made in the original plans and specifications for the ferry depot building has been at my suggestion or has received my approval Allowances made to con- tractors have been made upon my esti- mates or have received my approval. In other words, all of the work upon the building has been under my super vision. If the Board of Harbor Com missionerS, or through 1t the State, has been victimiZed by contractors, then I must be either fool or a knave"
