Happy Day, the ladies’ pet, is no longer at the track, but the fair sex can still make their presence known by spotting their choice in the bunch fully half a mile from the wire, and then begins the rooting— rooting that would make a collegian shake his football hair and resign from college. Even though he be last, woman shows her consistency by staying with the horse of her choice until the wire has been passed, and unlike man, who tears up his ticket with the remark “The bloody goat's a dog,” the fair member of the betting frater- nity always has some excuse for the de- feated racer. And so it zoe With but one favorite finishing in front it could hardly be called a good day for the first choices. The Consolation stakes, ear-olds, was the feat: card. This was the only run ta y.a favorite. The gross value of the stake was $1000, of which $200 went to the second horse and $100 to the third. It waswon easily by Don Carillo, who passed his field in the stretch and won by two lengths from William Pinkerton, the second choice. The winner, coupled with his stable companion, Ferris Hartman, went to the post at even money. He isa fine- looking son of imp. Mariser, out of Sunlit, the dam of that great. racehorse El Rayo, and is owned by Schreiber and Robbins. The five furlongs was covered in 1:013{. The mile and a quarter handicap ended in a big upset. Thornhill was ;fiuyed as though it was all over, going to the post 7 to 5, but was beaten out by McLight, the 11 to 5 second choice, who trailed him into the stretch, and had him beaten an eighth of amile from home. Passing the wire the favorite was a long neck behind Mec- Light, with Trix a good third. The opening event, a cheap selling race at a mile, was taken by } 0O C, backed down from sixes to 7 to 2, who led all the way and won by two lengths from Malo Diablo. Agitato was a fair third. Don- caster, the favorite, finished back in the bunch. Miss Ruth, the 6 to 5 favorite for the second race at seven furlongs, who had a hard race the day preceding, was beaten easily. Brodhead, the second choice, led all the way, and won by two lengths from Del Norte, who passed the favorite the last hundred yards and secured the place. Backed from 8 to 1 to tnrees, Mestor won the steeplechase in a canter, after Jying in third position to the seventh jump, where he left his field. Mero, a 15 to 1 chance, secured the place in a drive from Haymarket. The favorite, Bell- ringer, led over the first four jumnps, when he began falling back. The last race, a five anda half furlong race, was a sort of ‘“‘getthere” scramble from the fall of the flag. Empress of Nor- folk was a 9 to5 favorite, but just man- aged to show, the start spoiling her chances. Ina rattling drive Gold kiiug, a 30 to 1 chance, won by half a length from Sea Spray, a 20 to 1 shot. The favorite was third by the scantiest of heads. MULHOLLAND. SUMMARY.

Koch, U. C. ’96, Captain of the Track Team Which Will Go East Next Month. which turned out, though appreciative, was not large. The event was in the na- ture of a benefit for the team going East. Most of the interest of the afternoon centered around the 100-yard dash. It took three heats, allin fast time, to bring the entries down to Gill, 0. C., scratch; Barnes, U. C., scratch; Chick, U. C., 1% yards, and West, Y. M. C. A. § yards, All were good runs, and the race was won only in the last few yards by Chick. He had managed to keep a few inches of his handicap ahead of Barnes, who was sec- L. Merwin, U. C. 97, Who Won the Walk in the L. 8. J. U.-U. C. Field Day Last Saturday. ond. Gill, the Olympian, was third. The race was run in 10 2-5 sec. The 120-yard hurdle brought out two of the U.C.'team. Torry and Dyer. Both men won a heat and ran the final in 1614 seconds, Torrey being far in the lead. Torrey and Dyer are exgected to do well against the hurdlers of the East. The mile run was one of the best races of the day. Brown, U.C., scratch; Dozier, TU. C., 40 yards, and Jackson, A. A. L., 50 yards, were the starters. Tt was con” ceded to be Brown's race before the start, but when the easy stride of Jackson be- came apparent the college boys began to root for their man as hard as they were able. Dozier dropped out after the first lap. Brown began to slowly overhaul Jackson. The league man’s handicap was just enough, however, for, after peing passed once for a moment, he came up with Brown again and took the race from him by about six inches. So close were the men together at the tape thatthe timers got Brown’s time as well as Jack- son. Though he lost the race, the college runner lowered the college record held by himself, from 4:42 1-5 to 4:38 3-5. The 220-yard dash nearly cut another college record—one of 23 seconds—for that distance. Barnes, U. C.. from the scratch, covered the distance in 23 1-5 seconds, and was loudly yelled at by his classmates, | He, too, is a member of the great team. In the half-mile run, with seven start- ers, Bradley, U. C., 13 yards, won in2 minutes 1)4 seconds; Thompson, Y. M. C. A., second and Dozier, U. C., third. In the mile walk Mervin, U.

He ran the hurdles in 26 4-5 seconds, 2-50f a second slower than the coast record, and nearly a second better than he ran the final heat of the race. In the field events Simpson, A. A.

The grand stands and bleachers at San Jose were packed yesterday, when the first race of the second day’s racing tournament of the Garden City Cyclers was called. There must have been fully 6000 people in attendance, and a more enthusiastic audi- ence never watched a bicycle race. E. C. Bald was the great favorite with the spectators, and hLis magnificent riding earned him hearty applause. The local men, too, came in for their share of the honors. That the track is fast and the men slve :dy was evidenced when Ball lowered the world’s record for one mile in compe- tition to 2 min. 4 sec. It was a grand per- formance, and shows what speed these Eastern riders possess, The second day’s racing of the tournament opened with a third of a mile scratch race, class A, divided into fiye heats, the first in cach heat to qualify for the final, The starters in the first heat were: F. D.Day, Bay City: Allen Jones, Garden City; J. H. Dieckmann Jr., Reliancd, and J. R. Sampson, Acme. Day took the pole, and kept 1t until they came into the stretch, when Jones came on and won handily in 44 3-5 scc., Sampson second. The second heat brought out R. Moody, Gar- den City: F. M. Byrne, Imperial; Ed Chap- man, Olympic, and E. W. Decker, Acme. Moody had little trouble in winning, with Decker second. Time, 51 sec. In the third heat were Fred Smith, Road Club, and C. F. Frazier, Stanford. The latter found no trouble in beating his opponentin 50 4-5 sec. The fourth heat had jor starters C.D. Bates Jr., Rehance; 8. R. Mott, Acme,and Gus Nav- let, Road Club. This was easy for Bates, who was the public’s favorite, and Naviet got sec- ond. Time,50 sec. In the fiith and last heat were Archie Reid, Bay Ciiy; J. 8. Gosbey and F. Dieckmann, Re- ilance. Reid madea fine race, winniug easily in 48 sec. Gosbey was second. : The next race’ was the one-mile invitation, scratel, class B, conceded to be the greatest event of the tournament. Those who had bee: invited to compete comprised orly the f and best riders of the tournament. Of Bald, on his splendid performance of y duy, and his Eastern reputation, was con: to have the best chance of winning. Heis in splendid condition and_fights his races out every inch of the Still he would have by no means a walkover, as his competitors were all men of his class with great reputation for speed. : The race was divided into two heats, of which the first and second and fastest third would | qualify for the final. As the riders for the first heat ca on the track and lined up at the tape they were greeted with hearty applause by the immense audience. They were assignea on the scratch mark in 3 following order: W.J. Edwards, Garden . C. Hurbottle, Reliance; C. 5. Wells and W. A. Burke, Acme, and Bald, Press Cycling Ciub of Buffalo. ndem pace-making was to be introduced in the final to meke the race as fast as possible in the endeavor to secure for the Garden C track the world’s mile _competition_record, which stood at 2:05 4-5, made by Bald at Springfield last fall. At the start Bald had the lead, but Edwards soun_took the pace. On the second Bald led, but Harbottle came up to the front. Buld was in second place. On the backstreteh of the last lap Burke, who was last, came up and passed the bunch at a fying pace, getting un- der_headway and s ng n lead of twenty rards before the others realized it. This he ept to the finish, winning in 2 min. 3215 sec. Bald was second, Edwards third. After the excitement attending the first heat had somewhat subsided, the riders for the sec- ond came irom their dressing-rooms, and must have felt flattered at the reception accorded them by the audience. The starters were Otto Ziegler Jr., W. F. Foster and C. R.Coul Olympics; Oscar Osen, Garden Cit; tleman, Acme, and W. A, Terril}, Bay Ci Ziegler took’ the lead, but Osen soon from him; the order as the first time was Os tleman, Foster. They did mot change until the final sprint came, when Coulter went to the front, winning in 2 min. 30 sec., Foster second, Osen third. Ziegler lost his stride and did not sprint at the finish. The final of the one-third mile scrateh race, class A, wes next run off, those who had quali- fied by winning their heats bei N. Jones and R. Moody, Garden City; C. r, Stan- ford; C. D. Bates, Reliance, and Archie Reid Bay City. The latter led’ into the stret e Jones came on, winning in 45 3-5 onds, Frazier second, Reid third. Jones is a wonderful rider, and it is doubtful if there is his equal in class A on the coast. To give both class A and B men a chance to rest, the two-mile Chinese handicap was next introduced, the starters being: Charles N. Fong, scratch; Lee Fong, 150 yards; Billy Hack, 150; Jim Wong, 250; Lew How and Chow Choung, 400; and Tom Bo 450. The s were dressed in racing suits of colored silk, which made them quite attractive, if suci a thing were possible. C. N. Fong was conceded 10 have the best chance of winning. He hailed from Oakland, and is accredited with consider- able speed. From the start he set out to catch the limit men, and succeeded in evertaking all but Chow Choung, who won in 5 min. 38 sec. Fong was second. The race was very amusing. Then followed the meeting of the cracker- jacks in the final of the one-miie class B invi- tation. The men who had qualified in their heats of this race had been resting quietly, and came out fresh and ready to ride the race of t 1 They were: W. A. Burke, Acme; ster, Olympi . Osen, Garden City; Coulter, Ofympic; and E. C. Bald, Press of Buffalo. Interest was running high and the audience as of one accord rose in_their seats to witness the final of the greatest bicycle race ever run in California. The tandem used in pacing the men was manned by C. L. Davis and J.E. Alexander of the Garden cnl{ Ca'clersA At the crack of the pistol Bald jumped to the front and tecked on_behind the tandem. He was followed by Foster, Osen, Coulter and | Burke in the order named. The tandem set a killing pace from the start, but all the riders held 1t. They kept these positions until the last lap, when the tandem dropped out and the five riders fought it out to the finish. Bald was first, Coulter second, Foster third. They were so'close together a blanket would have covered the bunch. When it was announced thatthe time was 2 min. 4 sec., being 14-5 sec. under the world’s best previous record, the crowd went wild. Bald was cheered time and again, and the handsome young rider mod- estly acknowledged the plaudits of the crowd with & bow and retired to his dressing-room. The intermediate times were: First third, 43 4-5; second third, 1 min. 24 1-5 sec.; mile, 2 min, 4see. It was a grand performance and marks Bald the fastest racer in the world. The class A men again came forth to do battle in the one-mile nandicap. 1t was divided into four heats, of which the first three in each heat would qualify for the final. This race had forty-seven entrants, and there were but few scratches. In the first heat the starters were: Allen Jones, Garden City, scratch: E. W. Decker, Acme, 50 yards; F. L. Day, Bay City, 60; P.' Metcalf, Imperial, 75; A.H. Agnew, Acine, 130; Fred Smith, Road Club, 140. Jones could do mo better than_get third place, as Decker won in 2 min. 17 3-5 sec. from 50 yards handicap. Day was second. Jones rode the first two-thirds as fast as the class B invitation was run, 1 min. 24 1-5 sec. The second heat hdd in it: J. H. Dieckmann Jr., Reliance, 60; C. M. Smith, Garden City, 90; G. Navlet, Road’ Club, 100; John Wing, unat- tached, 130, and J. J. Carroll, Road Club, 130 yards. Emith rode well and won in 2 mi 12 1°5 sec. from 90 yards, Navletsecond, Diec] mann third. In the third heat Charles Frazier, Stanford, R. Moody; Garden City, and J. R. Sampson, had each ‘25 yards; V. A. Benson, Road Club, 80; M. Quimby, unattached, 1005 T.T. Kell, unattached, 120; 1. D. Gooeh, Oakland Y. M. C- A., 125, and E. J. Scott, Acme, 140 yards. Kel won from 120 yards handicap in 2'min. 12 4-5 sec., Gooch second, Quimby third. The fourth and fast heat brought out F. A. McFarland, Road Club, 60 yards; G. Harden- brook, Road Club, 70; C. D. Bates, Reliance, and B, E. Clark, Garden City, 80; P. R.sott, Acme, 95; T. A. Coleman, Olympie, and M.

" Clarkquit, havingsn attack of that “tired feeling.” The class B men then had another inning in the half mile handicap. The race was divided into three heats, first three in_each to compete in the final. In'the first heat Edwards, Garden City, was on seratch; Harbottle, Reliance, had 15 Yards; W A. Terrill and B.

Those who are suffering buy merely because an ingenious writer of advertisements tells them that the proprietor of the article, who hires him, has a cure for any and all ailments. Sickness may come without warning even though a person is ex- tremely careful of exposure ; and then again an overtaxed mind or body courts disease, and cannot shake it off when once it fastens upon them.
