THE EXAMINER. SAN FRANCISCO: SUNDAY MOHNING. OCTOl.EI? 2, 1892. 8 THINGS WORTH KNOWING. NOWORD FROM GRE6GAINS TWO EXCITING CONTESTS.

DR. J. E. PLOUF HERE. RUNNERS CUT RECORDS.

ISRAEL'S SOLEMN DAY. old Yom Klnpur unole, ever ready to pick up second hand bargains, signed htm and put him to work at the job Mr. Fanning all but drowned himself In trying to fill. American ladios, snd especially thost of California, are the most IntoresUng in many ways. Whatever tboy do in nisttort of tasto thoy do thoroughly and admirably.

They understand docoratlvs art In tba highest tense. Vlowed essontlally from (he modern standpoints ttiolr taste Is perfect and artistic. The women of California are full of vitality and health, apt and quick of spuorh and of ready wit and re partee. In short they aro vital in every souse, imbued with boundless enthusiasm and are solf rollant aud courageous. Tbey are critical essentially a critical people-but impartial and gifted wltb great discern nieut.

1 btilieve their taste in dross Is almost rwrfiK'b. Thoir usto is not hemli-rappod by stnudKiuoss and unlvorsal dirtiness, and the pluustiro of dressing- is novcr dam pod by ttio molancholy thought that thoir efforts to please may oe uamea oy tbo weather. In previous notes in this column your correspondent has spokon exclusively of tbe sutionory business of bauixirn, mi 741-745 Market stroot, which is growing rapidly. At tbe samo time It must not be imagined that thoy are neglecting the picture frame and artist material de partments, in tnoso lines tney loaa tue trade on the entire coast, aud tbe stationery business, however successful, is only oue department of a large establishment which givet constant employment lo over 200 men and women. Some weeks ago the eminent pianist.

Otto Bondlx, returned to ban Francisco, but It is only recently that he bas boon persuadod to make it bis permanent home. From tbe oft-quotod volume, A Hundred Years of Music in America," your correspondent: notes the following: Otto lienuix is a native or Copenhagen, Denmark. He inherited bis musical genius from bis father, at whose house the Koyal Orchestra frequently mot for practice. Having a wealthy father tho subject of this sketch was given every opportunity. He find sucb tutors as An tone lu'e of Copenhagen, N.

W. Gade, Director of the Copenhagen Conservatory; Kullak, tbe famous composer of Berlin, aud the celebrated Liszt at woimar. At Woimar he gave numerous matinees of tbe same class as those given ny von uu low and Hubinstoiu. and these entertainments were patronized by tbe Uraud Duko of Weimar. Having thus completed tbo preparations for his musical career undor such distinguished auspices, he returned to Coponbagen and wss soon after elected to one of tho most prominent professorships in tlie Conservatory.

In addition to his work as instructor on the piano at the Conservatory, he played tbe first oboe in the Koyal Theatre orchestra during the thirteen years of his connection with tbe Copenhagan institution. In 1880 be msdo his first appearance in Boston, where upon request he gave a recital as an introduction that was attended by the leading musicians and critics, who have never since ceased heralding his fnme abroad. Shortly after be accepted a position on the staff of tne mew iMigiano. Conservatory, which he held nine years. His record thore is the most enviable.

Dur ing that time he frequently appeared as a virtuoso In our principal capitals, and has been everywhere recognized as one of the most brilliant Instrumentalist oi tne modern school. Thus his career in this and the old coun try bas boon one worthy ot most elaborate mention, but space prevents. It is pretty well demonstrated that danc ing is necessary to tne harmonious aeveiop nient ot the man or tbe woman. The higher the type th greater ia the love tor dancing. tbe same as for poetry or music Dancing has tbe advantage of mere intellectual train ing.

for while it trains the intellect to cor rect notions of harmony it keeps alive the emotional nature, which under mere Intel. lectual training lies dormant, and the whole person suffers deterioration. Tho school of W. J. O'Brien at Scottish Hall has demonstrated over and over again that dancing in its higher sphere refines culture, makes the beautiful more beautiful, the lovoly more lovely.

A current orltioism upon the dancing instruction of to-day is that it is not up with the times; that young men and young women come from the dancing master too often much instructed but not practical, with plenty of theory but little of the art oi dancing. The system of instruction of Pro lessor O'Brien, developed by years of study and experience, is one that cannot commend itself too highly to every lover of true grace and progress, The waltz is tbe keynote of dancing. It was originated about the beginning of the seventeenth century, and from observations made during the past week your cor respondent thinks that many of the meth ods used in lead lug it in San Francisco must have been practiced about the same time. When the writer called last Friday at O'Brien's school at No. 105 La a in street he found on the floor a man who was taking instruction of the fifth school to master tbe waltz.

The man's own words were I have learned more in four lessons than in all my former Instruction." Professor O'Brien said The waltz has been a specialty in my study for many years, and I consider it, comparatively speaking, the only dance worthy of attention. My system is entirely different from that of any other teacher in San Francisco, being very simple, and certainly tho only practical method requiring no diagram." Professor O'Brien is accorded the very highest recognition by clubs, fraternities and colleges on this Coast He is a prominent member of tho Young Men's Institute and the Olympic Club. Disease is well known to arise spontaneously from adverse direction of natural forces around us. It follows that health arises as a spontaneous result of right direction of those natural forces. If spontaneous disease were the order of nature animation would be an impossibility.

Disease is the accidontal order, or the disorder, of nature, and its exception. Then with proper conditions spontaneous health is sure to result. There is no doubt of the origination of energy from opposite forces in na ture. This is admirably illustrated lit plant life. Plants resemble animals in many more particulars than the unscientific would suppose.

The gardener fertilizes the roots of plants and cools tbem oft, and thus regulates the forces and restores vigor to the plant The oppositos of beat and cold of winter and summer engender forces that work favorably or adversely to animal life. All that is needed to render the pathway of physical life smooth is to place ourselvos in perfeot harmony with natural forces. Such is the philosophy of Dr. Hercules Sanehe of Detroit who is the inventor of the Electropoise Victory." It is said that Dr. Sancbe spent 50,000 in defending his patents on this Invention.

His invention has been before Congress and attracted much favorable comment By application to Pacific Coast AgentDr.W. S. Hall, whose office is at room No. 1 at No. 1170 Market street the Maze building, the little volume "Spontaneous Cure of Disease" will be forwarded free, thoroughly explaining the philosophy and use of the Electropoise "Victory."

Darby would Inject his headless baseball remains into th proceeding and spoil every- luing, The Los Angeles people, while not fldlding a wall as Uncle's men, bit the ball hard all tb av tbrouvh. and then Peter McNahu. he of the smile, when winning, pitched good euough ball to win without much of a Held beblud him.

At yet no Intimation bat been received from Alex. Greggaln that be intends to aeeept th challenge which emanated from Young MIKh-ell.

Bom of Greggaln' friend hint that it be decides to fight he will want th limit ot weight tob 158 pound Instead of 154. To this Mltcboll and hit backer will not agree. Tbey argue wltb torn reason that Mitchell's best weight is 149 pounds, and tbut the challenger has no wore right lo allow Greggaln to weigh ten pounds more than him than Gr.ggalns bat to bt drawn Into a match wltb Choynskl, who rights at 108 pounds. In tb mean time $500 I at the Examiner offlo to prove that Mitobell meant business. Tb money will remain up until October 14th.

atrlitio club strife Tb directorate ot th California Athletls Club I In a state of turmoil. Lately tb sot wa published that two former Dlreotors of th club bad attempted to eollect commissions from fighters, and now another scandal 1 promised. It Is expected that when th dlreotors meet tomorrow night on of their number will be brought to aooount for having allowed a number of stowawajs to remain In tb gymnasium on tb oooaslon ot tb Dawson-Needbam eon-test. Tbe club members ar becoming disgusted at tb oontlnual bickering, and It Is broadly hinted that tb whole ot tb disturbance is brought about byeertain persons who are looking forward to holding office in the club next year. Among the general public, too, there are many guesses hazarded as to what constitutes tbe prlzj the club officials past and preseni are wrangling over.

SIDDONS AND SMITH. The unfinished eontest between Siddons and Smith will be adjudicated at to-morrow nlgbt's meeting ot tbe directors. As Smith was clearly fought out, and as Siddon mudo It palpable from the commencement that he was trying for a draw, it is not likely that th full amount of tbs purse win be divided between the expect ant bruisers. A proposition has been made to give them $500 each and to establish a rule that unfinished fights in the futurs will bring no profit to tbs participants. The Palo Alto Athletic Club has secured a good attraction in the match between Harris Martin, the Black Pearl, and MoCunn, th Philadelphia fighter.

Each of the men named has been defeated ly Turner, tbe Stockton negro, and they will now decide who is entitled lo second place in tne pugiustio running. NEW BICYCLE CLUB.

Tbere Is to be a meeting of the captains of teems and others Interested in the mounted tuK of-war tournament at Central Park next Wednesday evening. The principal object of the meeting is to discuss the tuterprotatlon of certain clnuse of the rules, which tbe teams want to bnve definitely settled before starting to practice.

This is a good idea, because in the last tournament on cleats there was consider able controversy In sum point after the tour naraent had started. Tbe management bas beard from Don Thomas Alvarado, who was in charge of the vaqueros' tournament at San Diego during the t'BDrllio ceieDraiion. rue vsqueros cniei or ters to outer a team of his men in the tourna ment, providing tbe management will pay the exnensus of triinsDortation of horses and men from San Diego to this olty. The proposition will be acted upon at tho meeting on Wednes. dav ntsht.

Quite a number of tug-oi war men bave sug gested that the proposed show be turned into a tournament on cleats, owing to tne oanger at tending a mounted tournament, but the arrange ments are too rar advanced now to auow oi change.

UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO. The New Temple of Learning Opened Without Any Ceremony. Special to the Examiner. 1 Chicago, October 1. The great University of Chicago quietly set about its eduoatlonal work to-day, without a formal opening or ceremony of any kind.

Extreme simplicity marked tbe first work of tho institution, and the occasion will be recorded as unique in the history of colleges. At 8 :30 o'clook the 500 students met the different professors in their classrooms, and the work of the terra was outlined. Studies were assigned ard the leotures begun. The object of President Harper was to launoh the craft of learning as thomrb it had been sailing upon the tide of education for th last forty years, and nothing but the newness of the surroundings indicated that it was not. There was not a bitch in carrying out the schedule ot exercises, which will be the routine of work for years to come, though above It all sounded the hammer and the ssw of the carpenters on the new building adjoining the nrst completed structure, and the noise of the workmen and horses on the grounds grading the land.

Two hundred or more visitors were preseni, and all expected to hear an opening address or at least some reference to the new work, but tbey heard only the regular devotions. In the mind of tbe faculty tbe opening was most fitting. order Cases Contlnned. Judge Murphy yesterday continued murder eases as follows: Dr. S.

H. Hall, two weeks; S. W. Harper, ten weeks, and Sidney Bell Ootober lath. This Medical Gentleman Interviewed About Bis Cure for Rheumatism.

for a Umlld Tim II Will Treat Buffer- or Fre of Chare, Whom II Cordially Invites to Call at Hooni 9 and 3, Third and Market Streets, Nucleus Building. About a year ago the writer, then plying bis humble vocation as now, beard tbe story of the cure of a wealthy citizen of San Francisco of rheumatism by some secret means. Investigation disclosed the foci that a mysterious physician Lad been here, but had gone to Washington. Lately, how ever, the writer, hearing of the return of this doctor to this city, located him, and yestorday lutorvlowed hlinin his new offices on the first floor of the Nucleus Building, at tbe junction of Market and Third streets. Dr.

l'louf admitted be was the ohvslclan that cured the aforesaid wealthy aontlaman of San Francisco of rheumatism, and said mat dc tore ni career was over In this city tbe whole people would rise up as a testi monial instead ot this one man. Dr. Plouf, though yet a young man. has gathered iufurmation that will more completely upset current ldeaa than anything heretofore sprung In San Francisco. He now permanently locates in this city In order to have a favorable bead-quarters from which to communicate with the different parts of the civilized world.

Dr. l'louf was until rocently located in Seattle, where be cured permanently 1,000 people of rheumatism. He did this all, too, mark you, rcadjr, before he would give up his lucrative practice as a physician of the regular school. The testimonials of this vast army of men and women are not long moauingless things but convincing. Tbe writer can only reconcile what bo must now believe with regard to Dr.

Plouf's cure for rheumatism with bis past skepticism only by the onward and upward march of medical progress. It is not claimed for this new cure that it will eradicate anything from tbe human system except rheumatism. A most modest and honorable introduction of himself bere Is the announcement that for some time he will dovote gratuitously his medicine and skill to tbe cure of some of the most cbronio cases in order that he may forever crush out tbe prejudice that exists in tbe minds of the public with regard to a regular practitioner's giving over bis time and attention to an effeotive remedy of his own discovery.

Tbe majority of tbe pilgrims and sojourners bad to be contented to pray within tbe Inclosures of the inner or outer walls, while tbe youtns of both exes thronged tbe public squares and gardens, pausing tbe time in indulging in Oriental daucea and other Innocent amusements, not prohibited on the Sabbath or on high holidays. None partook of food or drink until the nio-tnenious event had successfully pasted. At a certain hour tbe high priest entered the sanctum sanctorum, tbe space which no other being dared approach, and the high priest on this occasion only. There be prayed for all Israel.

and when he reappeared it was a stgn that bis prayer bad been beard, and the glad tidings were announoea dj iouii mams upon ins euoiar, tbe traditional ram's born: thcu Itranl knew that its Sins bad been forgiven. Mutunl con-i gratulatlons were indulged iu and snouts of joy rent the air; then tbe fast was broken and a Joyous feast began. TBI CHANG! THAT TIME HAS WROCGHT. The temple Is destroyed: the bolv city is In possession of tbe loe; sacrifices are not permitted; the functions of the pnens have long been abolished: Israel ia scattered all over tbe globe: all that remains to the faithful is prayr, tbe fast and tbe sound of tbe shotar. reminding him that without priest and ammul sacrifices bis sins are forgiven.

In our days the mode of worship varies Recording to the orthodox or reformed ritual adopted by the different conrre nation, and in this city every shade of orthodoxy and reform is represented. The temple F.nianu Kl on Sutter street, a monumental structure. Its beaven-klhsing spires visible from every sppro cb to the eity, represents one of the largest, wealthiest and most radical reform congregations in tbe land. The Mason-street Synagogue Is perhaps the next in order in the line relorm; the fberith Israel, corner Post and Taylor streets, is the most prominent and progressives! all orthodox concregalinus, and thus they fol.ow in rotation, according to their deere of orthodoxy, till we Teach tbe ultra-orthodox with their synagotrue Is a vacant store or over a butcher shop on Kol-som street. All of I hew places of wornblp and few more, sucb as Irish-American Hall, Mow-ry's Hall, are known to hundreds ot Jews and gentiles, exci pt one little synagogue, where a small congregation worship ss devotedly and fervently as any, is known to but Tory few people.

Out on the Mission road, at the intersection of 6ilver and India avenues, stands an Imposing structure, the Old People's Home for Aged Indigent Israelites. It does not boast many Inmates, but tbey are all quite old and of tbe old school of orthodoxy. The building contains a synagogue, and it is tbe coniest. prettiest little house of prayer imaginable. It contains pews, an altar, pulpit, candelabra and a holy ark.

wherein is deposited a real sacren scroll, writteu on parchment, and supplied with tbe ornaments and appurtenances made of solid gold and sliver. Tne entire oulfll was procured by Bam Rosenstock while traveling in Pales-tin and presented to the Old I'eopia Uome. AT TH1 OLD PEOPLE'S HOME. This was th am Yom Kippur celebrated within tbe home, vhlch lit les than one year old, and a more sincere and devout congregation ot worshipers could not be found any wbera on arm. Tbe old folks were not permitted to enter upon theirseif lmpnfcr.il fnm without partaking of a most sumptuous rentst on KriJav afternoon.

An abundanoe of poultry, cakes, fruit and choice vine bad been provided by a number of friends and patrons of the home, and ample remained for another royal banquet at tbe end of tbe fast. All the Inmates appeared In holiday attire. The men were in evening dress, white oravats and high tsilk hats. Tbe ladles wore frocks of excellent material. An air of satisfaction was discernible upon every countenance.

This little congregation did not engage either cantor, reader or rabbi, having a sufficient number of competent members in its own midst. Th "Kol Nidrai" was ohanted by A. Aron-on, more than seventy years of age, formerly a rabbi and cantor, to the delight of all the little congregation. But the exertion was, perhaps, too groat for the aged reader, and he was unable to leave his bed yesterday. Superintendent Levy read the morning ser vice, ana H.

Standing upon the altar, hla pronzea lealures encircled by a snowy white, flowing silky beard, the whito locks partly covered by a glossy, white satin skull cap, trimmed with a broad silver border, his frame wrapped In tbe white shroud, he presented toe spectacle as though one of the patriarchs had descended from the Celestial regions to bless the children of Israel.

Tbe strange vicissitudes of baseball wer well exemplified In yesterday's game of ball on tbe Piedmont grounds between the Oakland and San Jose teams.

Tbey were tied for third place, and the hot rivalry brought out a good sized crowd, whose vociferous sympathies wer with tbe home club. Colonel Robinson did not disappoint his admirer, for bis men won th game, but cannot be said to bave won a glorious lotory. They were outbatted all around and did not plav a strong game, except in the first inning, and tbe Dukes, although they slammed out plenty of singles, doubles and triples lime aud again a resumption of bard luck at a critical point closed ignominiously a brilliantly begun Inning. Thus the remarkable record ot twelve clean hits, thirteen men left on bases and only two runs was made bv the unfortunate southern delegation. The fielding was abominably loose, for the most part, on both sides, tbe home team being tbo luckier tn making errors when tuey did not atlect the score.

Neil! rwin and Brown in clever doubling up, how ever, showed themselves to be an efficient in field trio. The Colonels earned three runs in tne first through singles by McQuaid, Lang, rwin and O'Neill and a three-cumlon shot bv Carroll. Krrors and Lang's single added three more In tbe second, and thai was all. Tbe Dukes scored in the tirst and eighth and let it go at that. The score: Oakland.

Darby, a young man with a face as tough-look ing as one of "Chaw Casey's bulldogs, pitched the best he knew how for Uncle. But Darby does not know much about pitching that is, if his exhibition of yesterday bore tbe genuine trademark of his worth. Mr. Darby has about as much of a baseball head on him as Dan Regan's Democracy will have on the ticket in the coming election, and he pitched a ball that was as slow in coming to the plate as Uncle was in Disking himself ac quainted with the curves of Professor Fanning.
