FAVORITE WINS Attendance Large at the Benning Race Track, SPLENDID FINISH IN THE FIRST EVENT Other Sporting Matters of Gen- eral Interest. NOTES OF THE GRIDIRON ag But one favorite, Dan Rice, won at the Benning track yesterday, the third day of the autumn meeting of the Washington Jockey Club, an outsider taking the first and last races, the second going to a third choice, and the fourth to a second choice. The attendance was very large, the weath- er fine and the track In good shape. Jockey O'Leary had an off day, being left in the second race with Lady Dora, and in the fourth with Zanone. It cost the boy $25 for delaying the start in the second race, and the stewards fined him $25 more for re- turning to the stand in the reverse way in the fourth. ‘the finish in the first event was one of the best ever seen at the track, heads only separating the first four horses. Jefferson, an added starter in the last race, was completely overlooked by the smart people, and with the odds of 15 to 1 against him won from start to finish. The foilowing is a summary of the races: First, seven furlongs—Saratoga, 103, O'Leary, 20 to 1, won; Loiterer, 108, Cun- ningham, even, second; Ruby Lips, 99, Clawson, 9 to 2, third. Time, 1:31.

The strongest game of the season among non-college Washington amateurs was played yesterday »y the Mount Pleasant Athletic Association and the Gibraltar Ath- letic Club on the Mount Pleasant oval. Nearly four hundred people saw the G. A. C. rush their opponents for two touch- downs and one goal. The Mount Pleasants scored their ten points on kicks, which, on account of the increasing darkness, were misjudged. The G. A. C. owe much to the solid line they presented to the repeated rushes of their opponents’ backs, their own interfere1ce and general excellence being of a hign order. The game was too well balanced to ad- mit of any special features. The line-up was as follows: Mt. Pleasn’t. Miller Positions. -Right guard. Townsend -Right tackle. Davidson (cap.) Bentley. McMahon. .+.-Botts O'Hagen.......Right balf back....McDonald Griffin... Full back... Arthur Score—G. A. C., 11; Mount Pleasant, 10. Touchdowns—McMahon, Townsend, Bell, Botts, Goal from touchdown, Griffin. Rei eree, Mr. Sears. Umpire,’ Mr. Fisher. Timekeeper, Mr. Sagario, Linesmen, Green and Barranger. ‘Time of halves, 15 minutes. FISTICUFFS AT Three Interesting Bouts ward's Pavilion Last SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., November 16— At Woodward's Pavilion the boxing con- test under the auspices of the Western Ath- letic Club resulted in a twenty-round draw between “Spider” Kelley and Fred Muller. Kelley appeared to have the best of it throughout. The fight between Peter McGhee and Jim Riley was stopped in the ninth round by the police, McGhee being almost out. Riley was given the decision. “Kid” McFadden and Fred Maynard fought a twelve-round draw. ; Joe Acton, the wrestler, was the referee. "FRISCO. All-Around Sporting Notes. An interesting game of foot ball 1s ex- pected to take place on the Georgetown College campus this afternoon between the cellege team and an eleven representing the Baltimore Medical College. Twenty-five- minute halves will be played, and the vis- itors will doubtless give a good account of themselves. Notwithstanding the cool atmosphere pre- vailing at present a gam® of base ball will be played this afternoon at Fort Myer be- tween teams representing the medica! corps from the north and south barracks. D: Ariington Pond, formerly Baltimore's win- ning pitcher, and now one of the medical staff at the fort, has promised to officiate as umpire. Warm work ts ahead for the followers of basket ball in this city from now on. The District National Basket Ball League will open its season tonight at the Light In- fantry armory, the Corcoran Cadets and Carroll Institute teams being the contest- ants. Both teams have been hard at work getting into shape, and an exciting game can be looked for. Andrew Freedman, president of the New York Base Ball Club, scored a knock-out blow yesterday at the meeting of the di- rectors in Jersey City by securing a unan- imous re-election for the coming year. The past season in New York was a dismal fail- ure and all the bad work was laid at the president's door. For this reason it was thought Freedman would be ousted from his $10,000 position. It developed during the meeting yesterday that the opposition to Freedman was so small that it failed to materialize, and harmonious proceedings followed. Gossip after the meeting had it that Captain-Manager Billy Joyce would be retained and that strong efforts would be made to strengthen the team through the purchase of Center Fielder Lange and Shortstop Dahlen of -the Chicagos. With these two men added to the Giants the team would be a formidable one. Three Fast Bouts at Chicago. CHICAGO, November 16.—Three fast bouts were pulled off before the Illinois Athletic Club last night. The results were as follows: John Root of Chicago knocked out Tom Lansing of Louisville in five rounds, catch weights. George Kerwin of Chicago secu: ea the decision over Jem Curran of Engiand in six rounds, catch wi Tommy White of Chicago and Perry Queenan of Milwaukee fought a six-round draw, catch weights. —— Drowned Man’s Hands Tied. John Schade, an oyster dredger, who has been employed on the schooner John 8. Haven of Baltimore, today reported to San- itary Officer Frank that while the vess:1 was at anchor in Maddox creek last Satur- aay week the crew discovered the body of @ man, whose hands were crossed and tic, ficating in the water. Ths captain and mate placed a rope around the body and drew it. ashore, where ii was buried the following day by the residents of the vicinity. ——-— Thousands of situations have been tain ‘ob- a a te A ts tet te ee sD seekondonronortectertertortonnertoriors 0 ea te I a te Ee ee te te eA ee te ee) a | This Handsome Range has good-sized oven; we warrant it a baker or no sale.

When Professor Moore, chief of the bureau, undertook the task of establish- ing more complete meteorological connec- tions between the mainland and the islands of the archipelago lying to the southeast of ‘this continent, hoping thereby to secure val- wable weather information for the military service of the United States, he selected ‘Mr. Randoiph as one of his principal agents in the work of selecting and installing the stations. Mr. Randolph has for several years been detailed by the bureau for duty at the House of Representatives, where he hhas become widely known as one of the most advanced observers = of weather condi- of forecasting.
