A SCORE OFHEADS IN
THE BASKETSupervisors Make Sweep-
ing Changes at theCity Hall.
RAINEY'S MEN TURNEDOUT.
Twenty One Democrats and OneRepublican Received the
Piums.
HASKINS' ANTI-CIGARETTE OB-DINANCE.
He Would Totally Prohibit the Saleof the Insidious Ro'ls— The
Eoni Vv. s Insufficient.
Sam Rainey, the Bush-street boss, re- |ceived a jolting yesterday at the bands of i
the Board of Supervisors that has thrown ;
. bis camp into confusion and his frightened !and astonished followers are wondering \who next will pay the penalty for havingmarched under his banner.Ithas been rumored for several days
that a new combination had been formedin the board by tak ng in members who
hod heretofore been undecided and itwasexpected that changes would follow, but
few were piepared for the general house- ]Cleaning that was inaugurated. Some of
'the outs were innocent of all knowledge iof their danger until the board was |actually insession, and then they left theirposts to try to stave off their dismissal, |bat invain.
The combination had but one active jopponent and he talked and tried to block jthe proceedings more because he wanted jto go on record and get a chance to pour jhot shot into those who were turning hisfriends out than for any other reason. Inali twenty-two of the men appointed bythe present board soon »f.er going into ioffice were sent out into the cold world jjobless, and twenty-two others were made jtriad by being placed in positions to live '<off public pap. The hatchet traveled ifrom Police Court, prosecuting attorneysand clerks to janitors and elevator nun.
The only active opponent to thechanges was Supervisor Briti, who said ;that good Democrats had been appointed ;originally and ought to be allowed to re- ;main. He prolonged the proceedings in!every possible way by motions, amend- !ments, substitutes and other subterfuges juntil ruled oft of order by Mayor Phelan jon the ground that he was intentionally j
*-^-l:<y:n{.matters and without good reason. ,He "was feebly supported by Supervisors jClinton and Morton, tut the macnine had i
its way, and aside from an occasional'
chance where a personal friend or obliga-tion was involved Supervisors Devany, jHaskins, Deianey. Sheehan, Dodge, Lack- |man, Rottanzi, Smith and Rivers voted jtogether and created vacancies by lettingout the following:

Supervisor Haskins introduced an ord>rwhich he expects to work much good inthe community if adopted, prohibitingthe sale of cigarettes in this City. Theorder, which was referred to the JudiciaryCommittee, reads as follows:
order NO. .Relating to cigarettes or certain substances en-
closed or covered by paper wrappers andknown as cigarettes, the use of which is in-jurious to health and causes vice and crime.Tne people ot the City and County of San

"NAT"IN A NEW ROLE.The Actcr Revives "Garrick,"
an O.d RobertsonianComedy.
Bright Music in "Captain Fr.-cassa.""A Glimpse of Paradise"-*'£ast
LynDe."
N. C. Goodwin was greeted by almostaa large an audience at the Baldwin The-
!ater last n.ght as the one that applaudedfarewell to the De Wolf Hoppers on bat-
} urday.The play last night was Tom Robert-
j son's comedy, "David Garrick," in which| Goodwin made his first Pan Francisco ap-j pearance. The title role is one which has
tempted many famous actors, and in es-saying it the comedian naturally chal-lenged comparisons with his predecessors.
Garrick is a part after Goodwin's ownheart in one resiect— it depicts the sor-rows of a true lover who is mis-judged anacomes within an ace of losi ng the womanhe wants to marry. Goodwin's imperson-ation of Davit; Garrick made a distinct hitwith the audience. It was humorous ivthe lighter scenes, and in the scene wherebe pretends to be drunk in order to dis-illusionize Ada Ingot, Garrick enteredwith vivacity into the spirit of the situa-tion.
With all hi? cleverness it must be con-fessed, however, that when comparedwith such a David Garrick as that theelder Sothern presented Goodwin fellshort, boih in polish and appearance. Hehas not the easy grace of an ideal DavidGarrick, and neither his form nor face ispicturesque enough to make the ideaplausib!e tliat a beautiful, romantic girlcould ?al! in love with him from acrossthe footlights, as Ada Ingot is supposedto do. However, ifnot an ideal perform-ance, Goodwin's David Garnck is effectiveand willno doubt go oi. pleasing his au-diences.
Maxine Elliott looked beautiful as everIana acted unusually well as Ada Ingot.
The refinement of her manner makes herwell qualified for drawing-room comediesof the Kobertscnioo school.
Goodwin's support has undergone animprovement. William lngersoll, whoplayed Squire Chivy, did a drunken tceneso weli that ne almost snared honors withthe star, and Neil O'Brien was clever andeffective as Ada's father. The people whoplayed the Smiths and Browns of the casthad evidently been injudiciously incitedto burlesque the vulgarity of Mr. Ingot'svisitors from the city of Lonaon. Theyso exaggerated the idiosyncrasies touchedby Robertson witha gentle hand that theyalmost turned Mr. Ingot's borne into thetemporary abode of vaudeville.
The performance concluded with acomedietta, "The Silent System.
"At the Aicazar.
Last night the patrons ot the Alcazar weregiven "AGlimpse of Paradise." Itis a comedyby J. J. Dulley, full enough oi funny compile*-
tions to suit even the most exacting of audi-ences. Hugo Toland has certainly the queer-est ideas of what a Frenchman should be. Hesports the fiercest mustaches, wears the mostastonishing of neckties, and inaddition to allthis richness he adopts an accent surely neverspoken by any one but a stage Frenchman.However, much may he forgiven himconsider-ing that he gets most of the laughs in theplay. Charles Wineate plays Adolphus Dovl,a poet who is a miniature of Gilbert and Sulli-van's Buntnorne and Archibald, the Allright.
Adele Belgarde and Mrs. Bates do the partsallotted them in clever style.
"The First Born," Francis Powers' new play,met with as much enthusiasm as it did thefirst week, and on every hand were words oipraise for the clever work of the young play-wright.
At the Tlvoll."Captain Frncassa," Dellinger's comic opera
in three acts, received its initial production inthis City at the Tivoli Opera-house last even-ing. The book, which is by Genee and Zell, isfounded on a historical romance of Gautier'sand possesses allthat rich coloring and elab-orate incident necessary for the successfullibrettist.
The music is rftther above the average comicopera score and excels rather in the concertedthan tne solo numbers. The Tivolimanage-ment has taken unusual pains in the mount-ing of "Fracasss," and the ballet in the secondact is a happy version of Henderson's oldPierrot ballet.
"Captain Fracassa" calls for all the Tivolifavorites in the cast. Hnrtman, RnysThomas, Raffael, Laura Mlllard, Elvia CroxSeabrooke and Myru Morella each finds a con-genial part.
At Morosco's,
••Time cannot wither nor custom stale," soit wcuM seem, that tear-compelling drama,"East Lynne." Last evening it was receivedat Morosco's with all the fervid enthusiasmworthy a brand-new production. The gentlerportion of the audience wept copiouslythrough the harrowing scene?, and strong,bearded men were seen to furtively brushaway the tears that would gather and obscurethe vis-lon.
Maud Edna Hull, the favorite Morosco lead-ing lady,made her reappearance after a pro-tracted absence as Lady Isabel, the meek anderring heroine. The applause and flowerswntch greeted her first entrance testified tothe appreciation of her audience. Her LadyIsabel was womanly, delicate, yet strong, and Ishowed conclusively that she possesses unusual Iemotional powers.
Mortimer .Snow was too se'.f-conscious to in-vest Archibald Carlisle with the necessary dig-nity the part demands, and Jonn J. Pierson !mnde of Sir Francis Levison a self-satisfied iPrig.
Tne play was handsomely mounted, andjudgingby the large first night audieuce willenjoy a prosperous week's run.
At the Orpheum.
At the Orpbeum last night several newclaimants for fuvor made their bows to a San iFrancisco andienee. The star number on thebill, the Osrani burlesque pantomime com-pauy, was decidedly disappointing. The actwas rather too broad for even an Orpheumaudience, and allInall it was about the most
tiresome show of the Kind the Orplieum hasever produced. The Baggesins are reallyclever aud scored an empnatic hit. I>o-Mi-Soi-Do, a team 01 eccentric musical artists,also created a favorable tmpression. Guille,the littlo tenor, is as great a tavorite as ever,but he has lately auopted a most aunoying <
habit of talking to the orchestra during thepreludes In his songs. It may be that hethinks he is adapting himself to his surround-ings, but he only succeeds in lowering hisdignityas a first-class artist.
At the Chutes.The Chutes are as popular as ever and the
open-air entertainiaents every afternoon andevening are well attended. To-night the firsto.' a series of skating races between Joe Wald-stein, champion of the Pacific Coast, andCharles H. Johnson, champion of San Fran-cisco, will ttke place. The distance i*amileand the remaining races willtake place Thurs-day and Saturday evenings. The menagerie isbecoming quite a feature of the Haight-streetgrounds.
Columbia Theater.The second week of "Excelsior Jr." opened
last night. There was a fair-sized house andsome new songs and jokes introduced into theperformance were weil received.
ANTI-SALOON LEAGUE.ItHolds » Meeting and Lays Out Plant• f.of- Work.
The California Anti-Saloon League metat the Y.M. C. A.building at 2p. m. yes-terday, the Hon. S. W. Fergusson presid-ing. The committee on the itinerary ofDr. Howard Russell reported that thesouthern part oi the State had been pre-pared and that the rest of the journeyKillsoon be laid out.

IDr. Bevier was appointed a delegate toIcarry greetings to the California State ISabbath Association, now in session in |the First Congregational Church in OaK- j'land. Rev.

SCORED DEUPREY'S"FIENDISH" ATTACK
Baptist Ministers Indignantat Slurs on Pastor
Gibson.
"The Attorney Should Be Madeto Answer," Says Rev. M.
P. Eoynton.
Rev. S. S Cryor Denounces ProfessorLloyd's Unorthodoxy at the
Presbyterian Uni<n.
The Baptist Ministers' Union was turnedinto a reenlar indorsement meeting ofRev. J. George Gibsoa yesterday. Indig-
nation at Attorney Deuprey's attacks onthe pastor of Emmanuel Church was ex-pressed on ail hands, and vigorous mo-tions of indorsement and sympathy forMr. Gibson were unanimously passed.
The Christian ministers were present atthe meeting, as they had been invited tohear a paper by Rev. O. C. Miller, on"The Gospel That We Preach."
At the conclusion of the paper, Rev. M.P. Boynton drew attention to what he
jcalled "the tiendish attacks" of AttorneyDeuprey on Pastor Gibson. "Itmnfc Mr.Deuprey should be made to answer forthese attacus," said Mr. Boynton. Rev.
1 Dr. Dietz at once jumped to his leet, mi-idorsing everything Mr.Boynton had said,
and a general discussion followed, inwhich Durrant's attorney was unani-mously scored.Itwas finallyresolved that Rev. M. P.
Boynton and the Rev. Dr. Dieiz shouldj be appointed a committee to bear the!sympathy of the meeting to Pastor Gib-json. Inorder to make the condemnationof Deuprey more vigorous, however. Dr.J. Sunderland and Rev. W. H. Latourettewere iinallyadded to the committee, withinstructions to frame resolutions for pub-
lication. The following resolutions werefinally adopted :Inview of the recent reflections and insinua-
tions by Attorney Deuprey «nd a dailypaperof Alameda against the character of J. GeorgeGibson, a member of ihis body, we therefore.
! the Baptist Ministers' Union of San Franciscoand vicinity,make the followingexpression :
First—Thai Mr. Gibson has been inour min-istry in California lor several years and has inevery place borne an unblemished reputation.His character ftas stood among us from be-ginningto end without the slightest stain.
Second—In the unfortunate and awful
tragedy which occurred in the church bniid-!Ing of which he was pastor, he has been
brought under trials, the depth of which uoman can measure, but in them all he husborne himself with great consistency and for-titude, and in such a manner as to draw tohinisef ihe deepest sympathy and fullest con-'fidence of his brethren of this union, and, webelieve, of all Christian people who Know the
! facts.Third—We regard the insinuations and at-
tacks made upon him as utterly withouterounii, basely malicious anl diabolical, andin the name of fairness and justice we protestagainst these attacks and insinuations.
Fourth—lt is the desire and hope of thisbody that Pastor Gibson will see his way clearto continue his pastorate of EmmanuelChurch.
Fifth—That Rev. M.P. Boynton and Rev. H.L.Dietz are hereby appointed a committee ofthis toiy to coivey to Brother Gibson our
Ideepest sympathies in these repeated and ag-
gravated trial* and our entire confidence inhis Christian ana ministerial character.
Sixth— That we request the daily papers ofSan Francisco to publish this ai-tion.
S. C. Keetch, President.W, F. Binney, Secretary.
The committee, of which Rev. M. P.) Boynton is chairman, will formally pre-
sent the resolutions to Pastor Gibson thismorning.
Professor Lloyd of the Pacific Theologi-cal Seminary is the latest Congregationalminister to be accused of unortnodoxy.The attack on the professor's divnitv wasmade yesterday morning in a paper read
jby Rev. Dr. Cryor before the PresbyterianIMinisterial Union.
Dr. Cryor's subject was "The SecondIComing ol the Lord," but incidentally heseverely censured some 01 ProfessorLloyd's teachine at the Presbyterian Sum-mer School held last week in the Y. M.C. A.building. Professor Lloyd was ac-
Icused of being both unscriptural and un-historical, and in the discussion which
Ifollowed no one said Dr. Cryor nay.Rev. Richard G. Hoods made an ear-
|nest appeal at several of the meetings
!for ministers to asfc their congregationsfor aid to send the corn to the starvingpeople of India.
At the Congregational Ministers' Clubyesterday Rev. J. P. Dixon read a paperon the "Want of Emphasis."

Abusiness man of Toledo, 0., asserts that in his casedyspepsia was an inheritance. He obtained his first sup-ply of
Ripans Tabulesfrom Chicago because he could not then find them inToledo. Now the druggists there all have them. He car-ries one of the littlepackages withhim all the time, andifhe has that distressed feeling after a hearty meal, or aheadache, he takes a Tabule.
**My wife also uses them,"
he writes, "and if my boy feels sick he asks for one."

FOOD COFFEE.
A LITTLB HORSESeme and ItLands Home.
Ifa man would give his high-bred horseday after day a coucoction to drinK thatwas a certain detriment todigestion, andt.'iat slowly poisoned the stomach, liverand nerves, he would be considered adetin.te fool by all knowers. Some men'sbodies are worth as much as that of agood horse. In the isolated cases wheretli.s fact seems clearly established itwould be the part of good, cool judgmentand plain, every-day common-sense togive such a body as fair treatment as onewould to the horse, particularly when itis remembered that with a good physicalbody kepi in health and strength man cando thing-'.
There is quite as great a contrast be-tween the worth of a well man and a sick
.one as between a well horse and a foun-dered oid wrect, to say nothing of the"feelins oi the critter" in either case.. Blind to the cause of his physical ails,man (and woman too) persists day afterday in pouring into tne protesting bodya liquid drug called coffee, known by allchemists and physicians to contain thesame poisonous alkaloids as lourni instrychnine, morphine, whisky and to-bacco, and to require a powerful constitu-tion to withstand. The weak ones sinkUnder the insidious drag daily adminis-tered and seldom snow enough to spot
tl:eir enemy. "How do we know coffee isthe enemy?" some ask.
Let tfje little spark of common-sen«eflash again, and direct that coffee be ieftofffor ten days. You may not get entirely
well in that time, my impatient friend.You would like to ride downhill for sev-eral years and climb back in lOdays, butyou must let the little spark Hash again.The quickest way to get up the hill oihealtn is by the royal road of gooi foodand nourishing drink.
After a long line of experiments lookingto the production of a health coffee, thePostom Cereal Co., Lim., of Battle Creek,Midi., perfected "Postum" by a skiilfultreatment of the healthful grains, andPostum now stands as a liquid foud-drinkof great value, while itcannot be distin-guished Irom the choicest coffee in itscolor, and the taste is such that it iseasily mistaken for Mocha coffee. Its in-troduction into tne home means thatadults and children can have all the en-joyment of coffee nnd daily add to theiroodiiy Health by the addition of just somuch nourishment in palatable form asthe mire grains of the field contain. "Itmakes red blood" is the trademark, andthe rosy tinge of health attests tb6 trutnOf the statement.
There isbut one gen tiiue original PostaraCereal coffee, wkh a multitude of imita-tions offered as "just as good."
