"a vigorous movement will be inaugu-
rated at once against localized vice.
Steps will be taken looking to the speedy
removal of the gates across Bacon place
and for wholesale daily arrests of disso-
lutte women there and in the immediate
vicinity"
Such were the emphatic statements
made by Rev. Father Otis yesterday.
There will be no let up in the move
ment to clense that district of vice until
the full purpose is accomplished. The st.
Mary's Square Association, which was or
ganized last Saturday evening in st.
Marys Church will have its committee
before the Board of Supervisors on Mon

to order condemnation proceedings TO be

about it the authorities will be asked to

there is necessity for it, in order to run

CYCLER BOZIO LOWERS
THE TEN-MILE RECORD
CLIPS TWO MINUTES FROM THE
PREVIOUS TIME.
Successful Race of Olympic Club
Wheelmen Over the San Leandro
Road.

The ten mile road record Of the Pacific
coast was broken yesterday afternoon by
e. A. Bozio of the Olympic Wheelmen,
who established a new mark of 22:04.
The most remarkable feature of the
ride was the fact that Bozio had ridden
to San Leandro in the morning with the
men of his club and had participated in
the club race from that point to Hay
wards, finishing fourth and making sec
ond fastest time.
1t had been announced that after the
race J. f. Wing would attempt to lower
the ten mile record, but Wing, finding the
course in poor condition, refused to make
the attempt. Bozo thercupon decided to
try for the record himself. and took the
train to Fruitvale. accompanied by pace
a tandem. furnished the pace for the first
three miles. Fuller and Russ on singles
then paced Bozio. each, going mile with
and Kragness took the record breaker
from San Leandro TO the junction of the
county and San Lorenzo roads.
Here a bad quarter of a mile was found,
the road having been covered for that dis
lance with fresh gravel, as yet unrolled.
Anthony and Mace, on a tandem, took
Bozio from this point to the finish, though
they were in poor condition. Bozio passed
them out in the sprint for the tape.
When the timers consulted their watches
been lowered over two minutes, and had
the road been in better condition the
worlds record for ten miles on the road
would doubtless have been secured. Bozio
has made frequent attacks upon the rec
ord, but never went through without an
accident.
The Olympic Club Wheelmen's five mile
road race was started at 11:30 from San
Leandro. Ten riders entered and all fin
ished. though Bean and Young" Bozio
were thrown at the gravel-covered por-
ton of the course, Bean being severely
bruised.
| L. H. Smith won the prize offered for
the first place, riding from the rs mark,
and o. E. Bozio finished a close second.
| Then came the four scratch men. Wing,
the order named and paced by one an
other.
Eddie Adams. the clubs mascot, rode
| his first race, and, considering the lad
fifteen years, he made a commendable
ride.
Wing captured first time prize in addi-
ton to that offered for third place, but
declined to go over the road again that
day.

DAN GREEN MEETS DEFEAT.
Bested by Sid Cavill at Sutro's
Baths-A Fireman's Fast Horse.

Dan Green, considered a champion
swimmer in local sporting circles, was de-
feated yesterday at Sutro Baths by Sid
Cavill, champion of Australia, and If, in
the near future, some man is not pro-
duced from the East capable of leaving
Cavill in his wake, the Australians cards
will bear the fact that he is champion
of America as well as the land of his
birth. The race between Cavill and Green
was close, Cavill crossing the line at the
900 yard mark, but a few feet ahead of
his opponent. The time was 2:33.
L. Mare won the fifty yard juvenile
race, G. Dodgrey second; c. Dastick won
the seventy-tive yard juvenile race, G.
Willard second; A. Schultz again took
the prize in the springboard contest, and

Miss Eleanor Sanford Of Oakland, Who Will
Make Her Debut as Desdemona.

Another young society
woman has taken to the foot
lights. On September 80 Miss :
Eleanor Sanford, the daughter
of the Treasurer of Alameda :
County, will make her debut
as Desdemona in perform :
ance of "Othello," at the Cali

is well known in the society
circles of both this city and
Oakland She is a tall, hand :
some girl of the demi- blonde
type. The sweet Desdemona"
will not be her first histrionic
venture, for she has appeared :
in many amateur perform

attained therein assures an
other feather in her theatric
hat. Miss Sanford is studying
the part of the much wronged
woman night and day. She
does not hope to introduce
anything new in her interpre-

will try and follow the crea-
tions of some of those who
have gone before.

PACIFICS WIN A GAME.
Champion Alameda Cricket Team Was
Beaten Yesterday at Golden
Gate bY Nine Runs.

The fifth match of the season between
the Alameda and Pacific elevens the
first innings Of which was played on Sep
TENDER A. was continued yesterday at the
Golden Gate ground. The Pacifics, being
81 runs behind on the first innings, fol-
lowed on. c.. P. Coles and ]. ]. Theobald
made so good stand. the former scoring
70 runs, and the latter 81, that the Pacific
total for the innings reached 1880. THIS,
added to the rs made in the first innings,
produced a grand total of 1876 for both
innings, leaving Alameda 179 runs to score
in order to win When the fifth wicket
fell Alameda had scored 142 runs, and vic
tory seemed almost within their grasp.
But the eighth wicket fell for 1859 runs,
and, as they played two men short, the
innings was closed The Alameda total
for both innings was thus 326, or 9 short
of the Pacific total. f. Croll was the
most successful OF the Alameda bowlers;
taking wickets for 81 runs. For the Pa
cities F. Sewell took 8 wickets, but at the
rather high cost of 70 runs. The full
score is appended:

WANT TO SELL.
Waterworks Would Like to Sell to
the City Were Tt Not for Legal
Complications.

Charles F. Street, president of the
Topeka Water company has left To-
pela after acduainting himself with the
situation since the people have voted
bonds to acquire waterwOrks.
President Street said that he was nc t
prepared to say what his company will
do In the event that the city attempts to
build new works or take charge of the
old plant 4 wish I could say that We
were in a position to sell to the city, "
said President Street but unfortu
nately we are not owing to the fact
that the interests of the bondhOlders
have to be consulted. We are perfectly
willing to sell except that it is impos-
sible for US to do so on account of legal
complications.
The city council has taken no action in
the waterworks matter, but at the meet
ing next week some decision viii be
reached with reference to the future
action of the council

THE INSURGENTS IN THE
PHILIPPINES.

Aguinaldo and his insurgent followers
have presented fully as picturesque
figure in our difficulties with Spain as
Gomez and his Cuban army of ragged,
half-StarVed natives.
It is at the present time practically
impossible to estimate how many thou
sand Insurgents there are in the Phil
ippines, and especially those under
arms around Manila. This unknown in
surgent army is a very much mixed-up
affair. 1t is differed, that is true
enough, but the discipline is sOmething
of a very laughable nature. For in
stance, a captain may have a hundred
men in his company one day, and the
next day find himself commanding but
fifty men, the rest having gone over to
another captain. presumably one more
to their liking.
a characteristic of these islanders is
their peculiar freedom of spirit An
apparently peaceful native may be til
ling his fields one day, surrounded with
the implements of domesticity, and the
next finds him shouldering. a musket
which, by the way, he doubtless obtain
ed from the Spanish soldiers, and ell
I bowling his way through a crowd of
similar chattering natives possessed Of
a mOmentary war-like spirit. If the
United States acquires the Philippines,
it will probably find another problem to
SOlve-that of establishing peace and
Industrial habits among these insur-
gents. Perhaps, however the good ex-
ample set by many of the insurgents
who have retired to their farms and
rice-planting, to await another period
of war. will inspire the majority TO SO
and do likewise.
Our picture which we publish today,
is reproduced from Harper's Weekly,
and shows a triumpha1 procession of
insurgents in Manila An arch of tri-
umph Enthusiastically decorated,
looms up prominently in the back
ground The genius of liberty, repr -
sented by a beautiful native woman,
stands on a float filed with flowers,
holding an insurgent flag, and is drawn
along by natives
These professions show that the in
surgents are beginning to realize what
the downfall of Spanish power means
to them, and in the first flush of vic
tory probe bIv wish to assert their in
dependence; but doubtless this feeling,
which even now is rapidly dying away,
will be dissolved entirely when they be-
gin to appreciate the good offices of the
United States government.

in for 2 share in the condemna ton
A peculiar coincidence in providing
that the executive committee of the Com
nittee Of Two Hundred had appointed DR.
local Christian Endeavor societies and as
certain provision could not be made for
young people of Topeka, but before he had
taken any action a committee came from
stewart to make an address on that very
subject last evening.
DR. Stewart said in his address that the
executive committee OF the Committee of
Two Hundred had been discussing the
question Of reform and the decadence of
PUBLIC interest in the enforcement Of the
law for some time THE question, he
said, lis how to wake people up. They
seemed TO care SO little about the enforce
ment of the law in recent years that the

great deal Of liquor selling here in the
past few years, although there has been
much less since the new police adrninistra-

IN which he referred to the probability
that q reSu omission resolution would be
orought before the legislature this winter
and an effort made to force its passa ge.
He said that if resubnfssfon is successful

WHOSE 500 THAT WAS.
It Was to Pay J. Levi Whom Rev.
Mr. Harrington Owed.

J. Levi, who runs the tobacco and
cigar store at the corner of Ninth and
Kansas avenue, was another party VINO
is interested in catching the thief who
robbed the deposit boxes in the state
treasury. Mr.. Levi furnished J. NJ
Harrington with a good many of the
cigars which the latter sold in his stand
at the state house. Mr.. Harrington
was owing Mr.. Levi for some Of them,
and some time before Mr.. Harrington's
death Mr.. Levi went to him and asked
him when he could get his pay Mr.
Harrington had four undraWn warrants
in the state auditors Office, amounting
to S100, and he directed Mrs. Harrington
to draw the warrants and then to pay
off Mr.. Levi, according to the latter.
Mrs. Harrington drew the money, but
instead of paying Mr.. Levi she asked
Assistant Treasurer Williams to let her
place it in her husbands private box,
but as Mr.. Harrington had told Mr..
Williams to allow no one to get into his
box he would not allow the box to be
opened, and Mrs. Harrington placed the
money in the box Of her son, w. H.
Barbee, instead.
Chief Strauss is still at work on the
case, but no arrests have been made as
yet.
