4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, MAY 10, I895. M THE:BAY DISTRICT TRACK A Large Crowd Were Attracted in the Cause of Sweet Charity. SEVEN EVENTS RUN OFF. Mantell Was the Long-Shot of the Day, Finishing First at Odds of 25 to 1. A policeman’s handicap would be a very fetching novelty. All of the riders would be stars. Badges were of little use yesterday, every one, from the owner up to the judge in the stand, sporting one of the regular admission cards in the lapel of his coat. Colonel Dan Burns watched the horses warm up for the handicap, and finally concluded Hall’s Tar and Tertar would do the trick. His owner was of the same opinion, and both went down together. 11 there ever was a “prize lobster,” Mantellis one, and his trainer is either the most incom- petent trainer that ever put foot on a race- track, or he does not run his horses to win,and I incline toward the latte The ceremonies attending the fourth burial were simple but very impressive, with a no- ticeable absence of floral pieces. Little Cripple acting as the hearse, followed by the sorrowful mourners, attracted general attention. Jockey Kidd's ride on the mare Lounie B was = fine exhibition of the Sandow act, and her rider should be presented with & set of 50- pound dumbbells. Even on ordinary occasions such = ride as he put up would cause one to contribute to almost any kind of a fund. Ed Purser is said to have cleaned up $10,000 on the Little Cripple race, &s he backed Johnny Weber's gelding to win, and Arandel for the place. It was e red-hot thing, and the tall plunger should have told Cripple’s owner about it. Many & race has been won in the roofed ring. Jim Neil, the local horse-owner and poli- tician, bid Mantell up $300 over entered selling purse, an additional $5 retaining him for his owner, William Murray. Itisto be pitied Neil did not get the horse, as his horses are raced to win and his owner backs them at all kinds of prices. W. O’B. Macdonough and Charlie Quinn were two more fortunate players that had their ¢hecks down on Little Cripple. How did they figure it? Does that mile and a sixteenth in 1:49!{ tell the story? Rea d galloped a mile in 1:41% and vet his owner does not eon- sider him a handicap h All kinds of money went in o; educated and refined, and the ratherstr start nipped a good thing in the bud. defeating such sprinters as Eclipse, Pedestrian and many others of note, what thoughts must have passed through the bratn of the old roan veteran, Tim Murphy, as he pulled for might &nd 1main in that tug of war in which the man conquered the beast. After If Little Jim does not have all kinds of money it is not the fault of the gay throng that crowded and jammed its way through the turnstiles into the Bay District Track yesterday, and swooned and sweltered in the piping hot atmosphere. But it was for sweet charity's sake, and the track was honored by the appearance of society as well as the regular ce-going attendants. J. Talbot Clifton was there with the coach Meteor and a jolly party. and many other fashionable turnouts decked the main field. An unusually large number of the fair sex thronged the grand stand and bal- conies, apparently greatly interested in the day’s festivities. The racing for this special occasion was divided into seven chapters. As in all tragedies it began with a murder, the cur- tain finally falling on the scene with the talent and the bnofiieu at peace. By way of variety Sir Michael and Ro- salle, two starters in the opening event, a five furlong dash for maidens, ran away a couple of times, which gave their backers no end of pleasure. The field wasa bad lot, and gave Starter Merrill no end of trouble before he could finally drop hi: flag. Soon after they were sent away Soledad took the lead and won easily from the heavily backed Adaie M. Halifax was a fair th The winner’'s price was as good as 8 to 1. The second race, a mile selling affair, was taken by the 7 to 5 favorite, Hy Dy, after a drive with the poorly ridden Rain- drop. heavily played at 8 to 1, with Hin- richs up. It was a despicable piece of jockeyship on his part. Marietta wasan ordinary third. There was considerable delay previous to the half-mile pony race for gentlemen riders, Ysabel and Fine being protested and a pair or two of tre rs being shy. Ysabel and Rafferty were finally scratched. The race proved a walkover for the 1 to 2 fayorite Finesse, 1idden by Mr. Conejo, ridden Mr, mpkins, was second, and Confie h Mr. Benson up third. Aladdin was the other starter. Singularly enough Little Cripple won the Little Jim_handicap, one mile and a six- teenth. He was backed down from 12 to 81o1and won cleverly at the end by a length from Arundel. an outsider, with 20 to 1. against im. Malo Diablo finished third and should have been closer up. A couple of “‘spills” tended to enliven matters in the steeplechase. Just after taking the next to the last jump Wag bumped into the favorite Mutineer with Clancy up and both were thrown. Carmel at 6 to 1 won romping, Lonnie B comin, from the far rear finishing second an Zaragoza third, Mutineer went to the | post 7 to 5, with Lonnie B a strong second choice at S to 5. Mantell, a 25 to 1 shot, got away first in the sixth race,a five and a half furlong affair, and was never headed, winning handily from the Empress of Norfolk, one of the second choices. In a drive Tillie § backed from 4to 2 to 1 beat Gold Bug a nose for third place. The favorite, Rear Guard, made his field look like goats in the last race, a mile run, winning running away in 1:41);. Red Glenn was a good second and Del Norte a close third. MULLHOLLAND. FUMMARY. SAN FRANCISCO, May 9, 1895, 876. EIRST RACE—Five turlongs: maidens; - three-year-olds end upward; purse $250. md.

Dr. Miel’s Capture of a Monster Brook Trout in La Honda Creek. The Rev. Dr. Miel, the Episcopal pastor who officiates in the Sausalito church, is an enthusiastic angler. He can cast a cunning fly, and is indefatigable in work- ing along a mountain stream and fishing every square yard of its surface, deep pool and shining ripple from the rising of the sun to the .going down thereof. All the arts and wiles of the fisherman are as an open book to Dr. Miel, and hebares bravely up under the necessary deprecation of using strong language when he misses a tish, which, though a luxury to the layman, would be deemed unbecoming in a church- man. . This quiet and scholarly gentleman, however, has caught possibly the largest brook trout ever taken on the Pacific Coast. If any other man buta person of his avocation had given the avoirdupois and dimensions of that fish, the smile of incredulity might reasonably dwell fora short time on the features of his andience. But the reverend gentleman is incapable of exaggeration, and the fish was weighed in the balance and the necessary data duly and properly recorded. Dr. Miel was on a walking tour, and had balted one night with nis companions at Sear’s hotel, on the banks of Honda. It was early in the season, and the stream was full, but just beginning to clear, so the promises of sport were excellent. At an early hour of the morning, Dr. Miel put his rod together and struck the trail along the brookside. He came to a long dark pool, and wading into a shallow rapid at its head, prepared for the first cast. He put on two millers and covered each hook with an appetizing red worm. Letting out | plenty of line, he cast some twenty feet away, so the hooks dropped in the deepest part of the pool. Then there was a rush and a lashing of water, a foamy swirl, and a brace of monster trout dashed out to take the doctor’s lure. One grabbed and gorged the lower and one the upper hook, and %ha trout that got the lower charged down the pool, while the fish upon the upper hook ran directly between the angler’s legs, and was actually stranded in the shallow water. Without any observance of the rules laid down to meet the exigencies of such occasions, Dr. Miel fell upon the struggling fish. His rod was broken, the hook had parted from the gills, the other fish was gone; but this fellow, which had run toward him, he grasped with energetic and desperate feroc- ity. The brook washed inio his pockets, and filled his boots, but he lay upon that trout determined to have him" or gorown in the attempt. The fish was awfully slippery, and the doctor recognized that unless he subdued his vitality promptly that tront would gain the pool and leave him nothing but a broken rod and damp clothes to corrobor- ate his story. So he reached for a rock and dealt the elusive captive a whack on the head which took all the fight out of him. Then he drew him ashore and lay exhausted on the bank beside the biggest trout the Ls Honda has ever nurtured. The fish weighed sixteen unds, was brown-speckled all over, was three feet three inches in length and showed in all his yointa that he was of she brook trout amily, and not a vagrant steelhead or land-locked salmon. Rod and tackle were destroved and use- less for evermore; but Dr. Miel had scored a trinmph of which few if any brook-trout anglers on the coast can cite a parallel. Dan O’CoNNELL. IN LONDON, WILL FIGHT Jim Corbett Ready to Meet Jackson on His Own Ground. CHICAGO, IrL., May 9.—James J, Cor- bett gave out to the press this afternoon the following: ‘‘Regarding the report that I will fieht Jackson, please say anything Brady gives out can be relied upon as straight and I will stand by it. I have always wanted to fight Jackson, but he would fight nowhere else than London. I will take hira on his own ground, at the National Sporting Club. The fight must come off, however, in September, as my time 1s valuable. Ido not think that the Fitzsimmons fight can be pulled off and I don’t propose to chase all over the country without & show of meeting him. Under these circumstances { want to meet one or the other, and so have decided to try Jackson.” Corbett will leave here to-morrow night for New York to perfect arrangements, as he expects word from London. Californians 1 Fine Fettle, PRINCETON, N. J., May 9.—The Cali- fornia boys are surprising the Princeton men by their allround ability. The weather is oppressive. Bodley, the dis- tance man, and Torrey, the hurdler, are suffering. Mervin, Dyer, Scoggins, Ed- 1 gren, Patterson and Koch are showing the l wsé form, both jumpers clearing 5 feet 4134 -day. DOGS THAT WON PRIZES, Judge Davidson Finishes His Task of Awarding Honors. KENNELS THAT WEAR THE BLUE Sdme of the Curiosities That Are on Exhibition at the Show. ‘“‘Honest John’ Davidson of Monroe, Mich., pulled from the inside pocket of an Eastern summer coat ared bandana at or about 6 o'clock yesterday evening and wiped from his elevated forehead a few large beads of perspiration. He signed, too, but it was a sigh of relief at having completed the arduous labor of passing judgment upon 350 dogs of all sizes, colors and pedigrees. “T am well pleased that the task is over,” said the popular all-round judge, “‘and I — M.

Walter Foster and Allan Jones Try for Records Paced by Tandems. The bicycle races at Santa Rosa yester- day attracted a large crowd of spectators to the trotting park, where the events were held in the afternoon. Fully 4000 people were in attendance at 3 P. M., when the races commenced. They were run on a one-mile horse track, which was in very good condition for bicycle racing, although a strong wind down the homestretch re- tarded the riders somewhat and prevented any exceptionally good time being made. Large crowds of wheelmen went to Santa IMPORTANT TYPES AT THE BENCH SHOW IN MECHANICS' PAVILION. [Sketched yesterday for the **Call” by Knight. hope that my awards have given at least general satisfaction. I have noticed a great improvement in almost all classes of | dogs that have been brought to my notice in this arena since my lasi appearance | here, and especially the St. Bernards, | which class compares very favorably in- | deed with those I have judged in some of 1 the other large Eastern shows. Iam glad | to see tnat the sportsmen and fanciers of | this State have realized what good breed- ing is bound to bring.” Mr. Davidson will leave 1 a few days for the East with good words for the sportsmen of this city and State. The gathering at the pavilion last even- ing was quite large, and much interest was manifested, especially among the ladies, in the little dogs, which, of course, came in for the lion’s share of fond caresses. The Bt. Bernards and Great Danes were also objects of much attention. Dog shows, asa rule, are seldom without some strange attraction. The present show is no exception to_the general rule, and among the curiosities are two rabbits that are next-door neighbors to a fox- terrier who has almost wrenched his neck in the vain attempt to gain an entrance to the rabbit-coop. One rabbit hobbles about on three legs, and its mate looks decidedly ludicrous when he puts in an alarmed ap- pearance, having but one ear, which freak of nature makes little bunny a funny- appearing animal at times. 5 .{mong the dogs is an alleged Thibet mastiff, which fudge Davidson thought would make a very good specimen of the brown bear if its tail wasdocked. The dog answers to the name of Rolla, and it was presented to its present owner, Dr, Tenison Deane, by a sea captain who Yrocurred the strange loohng specimen of the canine race from_a Souti ea islander a few years ago. However, Rolla is much admired by sportsmen, | owing to her ciose resemblance to a brown | bear. | David Thom, a well-known local sports- mau, is of the opinion that Miss Rolla would be a valuable acquisition to the Country Club, as her presence about the de- mesne would drive terror into the bearts of all those who delight to poach on the great game preserve, 3 There will be judging for sé)ecml prizes to- day, and this evening the performing trick dogs will amuse the lovers of the canine race. A children’s matinee will be given on Saturday afternoon, the last day of the show. Judge Davidson drew his glasses over his Grecian nose at 10 o’clock yesterday and beckoned to the gatekeeper of the judging arena that he was ready to in- spect dog flesh. The English setters being first on the list that remained over from WednesJay were ordered before his Honor. It was the challenge class, and the ladies were first honored. Omly one aristocratic female, H. T. Payne's Countess Noble, put in an appearance, and Mr. Dayidson did not have to dally, inng to give an opinion. The Countess retired from the ring wear- ing a blue ribbon. %‘he following are the awards of yester- day: English setters, dogs—First, H. A.

F, Pettis, S. R. W., 55; J. C. Williamson, S. R. W., 55; M. Simmons, P. W., 55; D. G. Hayne, P. W., 55; M. Ackerman. unattached, 65; J. E: Jewett, unattached, 75; C. Stewart, unattached, 75; H. L. Martin, P. W., 75; Chas. Goshen, P.W. 75; W. E. Groshong, 8. R. W., 85; G. Felix, unattached, 150. The hnndicnps;in was good, and the men were hardly gImm:he(l until they reached the stretch, when Williamson came on and won handily in 2 min. 16}g sec. Hayne was second, Pettis third an Lowery fourth. On account of the crowd around the tape which should not have been there, two men fell jnst at the finish, but escaped without injury. The visiting wheelmen were given a chance to show their abilities as riders in the second race, a one-mile handicap, class A, and the different bay clubs were well represented. The starters were: H. F. Terrill, B. C. W., and A. Reid, B. C. W., scratch; B. Languetin, B. C. W., 30 yards; F. L. Day, B. C. W., 60; J. H. Dieckman Jr., B. A.'C.,60; C.'D, BatesJr., R. A, C., 807 H. L. Day, B. C.

This was an evidence of the poorest handicapping ever seen in a race in Cali- fornia. The scratch and short-mark men had absolutely no chance whatever, as the race showed, and the result was that Bates won _from 80 yards in 2 min. 14 1-5 sec. Boyden, 125 yards, was second, and Dieck- man, 680 yards, third. Reid, one of the scratch men, fell while trying to get through the bunch, but was unhurt. The third race was a quarter mile, for county riders only. It wasdivided into three beats, the starters in the first being: R. W. Turner, P. W., and A, F. Hembree, unattached. This was a slow ride, and Turner won easily in 43 1-5 sec. The starters in the second heat were: D. G. Hayne, P.W., and W. E. Groshong, S.R. W. This was an easy victory for Hayne, who won in 35 sec. The third heat had for starters: W, F. Pettis, 8. R. W.; N. Ackerman, P. W., and "1 Martin, P. W. Ackerman won in 3525 sec., Pettis second. Ackerman should have been disqualified, as he looked backward several times in the race, The fourth race was another pretty ex- bhibition of racing by the visiting whee! men. It was a half-mile handicap, class ef the starters being: H. F. Terrill, B. C. ., and A. Reid, B. C. W., scratch; E. Languetin, B. C. W., 15 yards; F. L. Day, B.C. W., 30; J. H. Dieckman Jr, R.
