VANCOUVER man HELD
UP ON BARBARY COAST

In Philip Branco, a merchant from
Vancouver. the strong arm men who of
late have Infested the section of the Bar
barry coast around Pacific street found
a good thing, and a blow which they
dealt him on the head at an early hour
yesterday morning netted them more
than $1,000.
Policeman Joseph Springett found
Branco wandering aimlessly in the vi
cinity of Pacific and Montgomery
streets minus bank roll of $3.50. his
watch and chain, lodge emblem and two
large diamonds, one of which he had
worn on his finger and the other in his
shirt front. Blood was flowing from
two deep cuts in Branco's scalp.
Branco. from what the police could
learn. came to San Francisco less than
week ago with the idea of starting a
wholesale dry goods and merchandise
store in conjunction with one which he
now runs in Vancouver. He visited the
Latin quarter Sunday with friends, and
about midnight became separated from
the rest of the party. He claims to have
been assaulted shortly afterward and
can remember nothing until taken in
tow by the policeman.

INyEsTIGATING ACcIpENT

Detectives from the police department
were detailed yesterday to investigate
the case Of Albert Kingsford of 2616
Sutter street, young man whose death
occurred yesterday morning at the st.
Francis hospital. On Friday morning
Kingsford was carried into the hospital
in an automobile belonging to the Levi
Strauss company and treated for nu-
merous cuts and bruises about the body.
He was apparently conscious, but the
names of those who brought him to the
hospital were not secured by the at
tendants. Shortly afterward Kingsford
lapsed into a comatcse condition, from
which he was never aroused.

Win the TWO boxers IN training, lne
fight fans have taken up the question
of the referee, and this is providing
much food for discussion. The number
of available men in this city is limited,
and it is hard to tell whittier the man
ayers of the fighters will turn for a
competent official Each of them has
gone on record as being opposed TO
certain men who have figured in the
big fights in the last 10 years, and
this cleans up the field pretty thor
oughly. There is no one in Chicago VINO
stands out as an eligible, as George
Siler would not be acceptable to the
Nelson party, owing to the differences
which developed after the Gans-Nel-
son fight at Goldfeld. New York has
no great referee who would lend any
distinction to the match, SO that field
will not be invaded in search of an
official.
Willus Britt has already asked Man
ager Nolan to sit down to a discussion
of the referee question, but the repre-
sentative of Nelson feels that the %
days allowed by the articles will pro-
vide ample time in which to select q
competent official.
Nelson has engaged a new boxing
partner in Kid German, who Joined
the training camp at Larkspur yester-
day. He is a strong boy and is ex-
pected to provide Nelson with all the
boxing exercise he will require.
The tickets for the fight have bean
ordered and will be placed on sale 1t
The Hague cigar store, 1885 Fillmore
street, on June 20.
n Bill Squires has been devoting him
self SO assiduously to training at San
Rafael for many weeks that Manager
Barney Reynolds has declared a little
vacation for him. In order to prevent
the possibility of his becoming over
trained, he left for a four days trip
to Santa Cruz yesterday. Squires is
great swimmer and goes to the sea-
side resort to crafty his desire for 4
dip in the ocean. He was accompanied
by his Australian friend, Judge Denton,
Manager Reynolds remaining at home.
Ed Hagan is the latest sparring
partner to feel the weight of Squires'
blows. He received a clip above the
eye which cut deeply and drew blood
profusely. Squires must be a terrific
hitter, but the friends Of Tommy Burns
are not worrying on this score, os
they believe their man is so fast that
he cannot be hit. Some of the bet
ting men figured on the same lines
when Battling Nelson met Martin Ca
mole. They lost, as Nelson found d
way to reach the elusive Bostonian.
The supervisors presented souvenir
to Jack Gleason yesterday in the form
of a permit for professional boxing
match for this month. Gleason has
no boxers signed and will not be able
to promote match He has one conso-
Iation-that the granting of the permit
does not carry with it the necessity Of
his posting the amount required for a
license to promote boxing.
The Central club was granted a per-
nit for four round fights for the night
of June 81 and the Brooklyn club for

show includes a match between Kyle

Best Cows Are Cheapest.

The high priced COW is not so ex-
pensive as she seems in view of what
she produces. The average cow pro-
duces milk or butter to the value of
$3.50, and she costs SOL year, reck-
oning that the manure she produces
offsets the care given her. This shows
that the COW does not do a great deal
toward raising the mortgage on the
farm. Assuming that it costs no more
to keep good COW than poor one,
the figures will show that the good
COW is relatively cheaper. The aver
age COW will produce 5000 pounds OF
milk a year, while a choice COW will
produce as high as 10000, meaning a
profit of 500 against the almost even
balance sheet of the average COW,
while Pieterie H., Holstein, has a
record of 10000 pounds of milk a
year, which would make a profit of

Coqitation.

The gentlemen of the bar, who
not infrequently have to take re-
Dukes from the bench, greatly enjoy
chance to make legitimate retort
against the court. The story is told
that a certain judge who during the
plea of rather prosy lawyer could
not refrain from gently nodding his
head in sleep was caught at this by
the lawyer, who looked significantly
at him.
'Perhaps," !" said the judge testify
and prevaricatingly, 'sthe counsel
thinks the court was asleep, but he
may be assured that the court was
merely cogitating."
The lawyer talked on. Presently
the judge, again overcome by his
somnolency, nodded off and aroused
himself with little sudden snort
ing snore.
E1f it please your honor" said
the lawyer, Il will suspend my plea
until the court shall have ceased to
cogitate audibly."
"You may go on said the judge,
and he did not fall asleep again.
