 The steamer H. J. Corcoran did not get ternoon. Four miles from Stockton she went aground, but got off again and came on. At Antioch the full force of the gale was encountered, and there Captain Mo- Murty tied up until the storm went down. She arrived here about 5 D. m., and did not leave for Stockton again until mid night.
 The steamer South Portland, grain laden from Astoria, and the American ship Jabez Howes. loading at Steuart- street wharf for New York, had a monkey and parrot time of it. The South Port land was lyIng alongside the ship dis charging grain into her when the storm came up. Before she could be moved away by the tugs she had torn over a hundred sheets of copper from the ship and had done other damage amounting to 5000. The Howes will have to go on the drydock for an overhauling

 The ferry-bOat Berkeley IS not good craft for a mortimer, so yesterday she was taken off the run. The dredger at the mouth of Oakland Creek had a bad time of it, and nearly a mile of piping from 1t to the flats was broken up and rendered useless. A rock barge at the Angel Island quarry went ashore, but the tug Sea Witch went over and lowed it off and to a place of safety under the lee of the island.
 Round about Main street and the Mail dock there was very little damage done. The Morgan City chafed considerably and the historic Mary Ellen Calvin broke one of her stern lines and crashed into Little Main street There was no one in charge of her, so Assistant Wharfinger Scott was compelled to put keeper on board.
 Al Waltendurff, a longshoreman work ing on the steamer Del Norte, met with a serious accident. He was unloading lum- Der from the vessel, when the wind blew a piece off his shoulder.

DEPARTURE OF
 ARTIST HARRISON HE GAINED SOCIAL HoNORS, BUT SOLD FEW PICTURES.
Art Association and Bohemian Club '' Recognized His Genius by Pur-
 chasing His Paintings.

Alexander Harrison, an artist of celeb rity, left San Francisco Thursday evening for Paris. e goes via Chicago and New York, and will tarry, for short time in the city by Lake Michigan. MT. Harri sons sojourn in California afforded the local painters both pleasure and instruc- ton, and they regret his departure and also regret that the millionaire picture collectors of this city did not view the artists work with as much favor as it deserved.
 The reception rendered to the eminent painter at the Mark Hopkins Institute of Art was a social triumph for MT. Harri- son, but the exhibition of his paintings at the institute did not enlist widespread at tention or allure any one to purchase 8 picture. The artist sold only two notable paintings in San Francisco. The Bohemian Club bought one and the Art Association the other. The sum of s2000 will represent the amount of cash received by MT. liar rison for both canvases.
 MT. Harrison did not betray any slgn or disappointment or displeasure because his pictures were not sought by the rich pa irons of art in this city. He had good time in California and derived much pleasure from his sojourn on the shore Of Monterey Bay. The local artists, how ever are vexed to think that MT. Harrt- sons worth as a painter did not receive more substantial recognition than that accorded by the elite of society.

WORK OF THE STORM,

The wind is the farmers salvation.
 No damage in the city has yet been re- ported except to the high billboards, which were sent crashing to the side walks. Old Boreas ripped off great slabs of dried paste and paper and sent them whirling down the street. Every high fence in the town tottered and leopard ized the lives and limbs of pedestrians every moment in the day. Had not a gang of men been put to work bracing fences and cleaning bllboards serious damage would have resulted.
 Yesterday morning a high fence on Leavenworth street, near Turk, fell with a crash and man and a woman narrowly escaped being crushed by 1t. AS 1t was the man escaped, but the woman was hurt slightly by the flying boards. It was twenty feet high and swayed in the wind so much that people avoided it. Another fence near the City Hall was blown down. It also was twenty feet high and ran for two or three hundred feet on two sides of a vacant lot. About sixty feet was blown in the lot. Many people were pass Ing at the time. and had 1t fallen outward some would surely have been killed
 A big slab of dried posters fell from the top of the building on the southeast cor ner of Bush and Kearny streets, smash ing a street light. No one was hurt, and a gang of workmen was put to work re- moving the rest of the dried paper.
 Old Boreas was no reSpecter of persons, and he blew the ladies about at his own sweet will in an alarming manner Their skirts were tossed and tangled around them and their bonnets were blown into ribbOnS

and toss game with section 3 of the sea- wall. They loosened the wharf for nearly 500 feet and worked it backward and for ward until there was wide opening be- tween the wooden structure and the road way. There also fence was put up and a Watchman was stationed to keep peo- pie away. All the vessels got out bales of hay as lenders, so none of them suf- fered to any great extent. One big sea broke clear over the Razeto and not only drenched the crew, but also the crowd on the wharf.
 Round at Ffshermen's Cove the place was almost deserted. The fishermen smelt the mortimer from afar and they took the boats early to place of safety. street, provided a place of safety for many of them. They got under the wharf to the ,leeward of the ship, and as she boats lay there throughout the day. The Bothwell was to have gone out into the stream yesterday, but Cap tain Bellringer changed his mind and de- cided to remain alongside the wharf. The steamer Walla Walla was also to have moved from Broadway wharf to the sea wall, but Captain Wallace concluded, him.
 The steamer Orizaba arrived from southern ports during the morning and Captain Hall reports that off Point Sur 1t was blowing a living gale from the north, but the OriZaba came right along and made port in safety. The City of Peking from China and the City of Pan anna from Central American ports are both behind time, probably owing to the storm. The State of California went out on her way to Oregon, but she will run along under the lee of the land and will have smooth water nearly all the way up.
 At Jackson street wharf Charles 1ver- son nearly lost his life> He was on the river steamer Relief and gust of wind carried his hat away. While trying to recover 1t another gust of wind struck him and over he went. He got onto one of the pieces of lumber that came around from the raft, but was rolled over and over and nearly drowned Finally he got hold of pile and held on for nearly an hour before he could make himself heard over the raging of the storm.
 The worst accident of the gale was the drowning of two Italian fishermen. They had been up river in their boat, the Santa Ella, and came down flying before the gale. When off Goat Island they tried to come about and run for Fishermen $ wharf The boat missed stays and the next moment the wind had filled the big lateen sail and over went the boat Henry Peterson saw the accident from Folsom street wharf and at once put out to the rescueN in the launch Amy. When he reached the overturned fishing smack the men were gone, carried away by the wind and waves, so he took the boat in tow and brought her back to Folsom street wharf. At Fishermen's wharf 1t was impossible to learn who the drowned men were. and the men when questioned

The greatest ve- locity attained by the wind was ninety on the Mills building it went to forty four miles. It averaged sixty miles at Point Reyes The high pressure in the the coast is the cause of the wind storm. Hammon thinks the storm will be fol- lowed by heavy rain before Sunday all over the State.
 It has been raining generally through out Southern California and showing in the mountains. It looks as if Southern California will have good soaking. If will have killing frosts all over the State.

CUPID BEHIND THE SCENES.
Dons Sock and Buskin and Plays Havoc in "The Gayest Man

 The first of the company to marry was John E. Farley and Jean McIlmoyie The event took place in Denver. The second occurred here a week or so ago, when Edward Lane and Mime. Cameron were mated.
 There are a number of other marriages scheduled before the return of the com pany to New, York City.
 The bride-elect of yesterday is well known both to members of the profession and the general public throughout the en- tire country. It will be remembered with ing roles in Dixey's "Adonis' when the comedian was touring the coast some five or six years ago. Since then she has been to this city frequently with various companies and her advent here with the Gay Manhattan Company has lent a cer- tain prestige to the show which has come as consequence of her popularity and her ability as an actress. Aside from the distinguished position she holds as an ac- tress she maintains leading position in the realm of society. She comes from one of the oldest and most influential families in Philadelphia.
 The groom Is son of the late John F. Thrum, proprietor of the Music and Drama. a weekly paper of considerable influence in this city.
 Immediately after the ceremony the wedding breakfast was served in one of the private dining-rooms of the hotel be- ing participated in by the young couple and a few intimate friends in the theat- rical profession.
 Many beautiful and costly presents and floral donations were presented by mem bers of the Manhattan troupe. Congratu- lations were extended by Jack Hartley, proprietor and manager of the show, and by many of the leading men in the other theatrical attractions now playing in the city.
 The festivities of the afternoon were concluded with gay repast in the apart ments of the groom immediately after the performance last evening at the Co., lumbias
