4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WED SDAY, MAY 29, 1895. SPECIAL BOXING MATCHES An Evening of First-Class Fistic Sport at the Olympic Club. ENOCK DOWNS AND OUTS. The Star Event of the Evenlng Was the Bout Between Cathcart and Reno. The first event of the evening at the spe- cial boxing-match contests of the Olympic Club wa flashlight shot at the ring and surroundings, which, however, ended in smoke. After this Manager Kennedy introduced J. H. McMahon, 117 pounds, of the Olym- pic Club and F. Coughlin of the San Fran- cisco Club, 116 pounds, Coughlin was sev- eral inches under his opponent in size, but he handled himself well and had all the best of the first round, which was a rather tame affair. In the second round Coughlin. played with McMahon, the latter landing only two blows at the finish. but he was very exhausted at_the end. In the fourth and last round Sullivan gave Slamberg some hot kidney blows, which knocked all the steam out of the Acme man. Sullivan had the best of this round, but Slamberg won the decision. J. Kennedy of the San Francisco Club faced L. Muller of the same club. Ken- nedy was matched to box L. A. Payen of the Sacramento Athletic Club, but “at the last moment Payen sent word that his heart was affected, and that his physician ordered him not to box or enter into any iame of an exciting nature. Kennedy and Muller gave a very clever exhibition, which lasted four rounds. The last event on the programme was the much-talked-of heavy-weight bout between T. Van Buskirk of the Olympic Club, 190 gonnds, and C. Merchant of the Healds- urg Club, 180 pounds, and neither of the men knew much about boxing, although to the credit of Van Buskirk it must be said that owing to the fact that he has been taking lessons for only three months he did verv well. His opponent, Merchant, has been ai the game for a year or more, and his superiority in cleverness over his opponent won him’ the match. The Olympic boxer made some terrific lunges at Merchant’s head, any of which would have decapitated the Mer- chant had a landing been made. The big fellows boxed a fifth round before the judges decided in favor of Merchant. The entertainment was voted by all as the best seen at the club in many moons. THURSDAY'S COURSING MATOH. The Drawing of the Dogs Held Last Night—A Good Course Promised, To-morrow one of the biggest coursing In the third McMahon did better and | matches of the season will be run off at [THE BAY DISTRICT RACES, Clever Eddie Jones Rode Four Straight Winners, All First Choices. ALL THE FAVORITES WON. Bookmaker Humphrey’s Speedy Filly Heartsease Defeated a Good Field. Bookmeaker Humphrey touched the ring up by the victory of his good filly Heartsease. Mr. Macdonough placed a few hundreds on Eventide. She ran as though short of work. Up to the last race Ed Purser said he could not win a bet. The tall plunger is about done with the game. The Australians are much further advanced in the art of horse-racing than we Americans, itis said; certain their horses are possessed of more cunning. Imp. tGrand Lady always seems to know when the price against her is longand runs accordingly. It was a favorite day throughout, all five first choices taking down the money. With the exception of Commission very fair odds ‘were obtainable against all of them. Jockey Lloyd is up and about, looking very much as though he had been run over by a street-sweeping machine. The entries of horses that continually bleed in the races in which they start should be rejected. Not only is hundreds of dollars “burnt up” on these animals, but from & humane standpoint it is an addition to racing that is very far from being & pleasing one. The action of the judges in ruling Jockey Flynn off the turf caused quite & commotion among the members of the Armstrong family, VAN BUSKIRK. [Sketehed from life by a * Call” artist.] instead of jabbing his opponent at long range he closed in on his game and re- turned blow for blow. Coughlin, however, was the cleanest hitter. In the fourth McMahon had a slight lead, owing to the fact of Coughlin becom- ing winded and was seemingly at the mercy of his opponent near the end of the round. The judges gave a decision in favor of McMzahon. The next event was a bout between W. Ensbury, 118 pounds, of the Olympic Club, and G. Dixon of the San Francisco Ath- letic Club, 118 pounds. Dixon was built on the lines of the spider and amused the spectators by h manner of dancing around the ring. The end of the first round was interesting. Some good stiff blows were exchanged and honors were about even. The second was too exciting for even the seconds of the men. Dixon, in a hot rally, | knocked Ensbury down, the latter landing | on his nose. He got up in time to resume the bout, and was knocked down again. Then, as he staggered gamely toward his opponent, one of his seconds called time, and Ensbury was dragged to his chair, The referee, however, saw the mistake and ordered Ensbury to go on and fight. He was almost gone when the gong sounded. In the third round Ensbury was still roggy, and after being knocked down a few times the referee stopped the contest and Dixon was given the match. Dixon proved to be a harder hitter than his op- ponent thought after the first round. The next contest was between C. Cath- cart, 1273 pounds, of the Olympic Club, and C. Reno, 126 pounds, of the San Fran- cisco Athletic Clnb. This was biff! bang! from start to finish of the first round. Reno forced the pace and it was difficult to say who had the best of it. The second round was Reno’s. He landed several good straight lefts on Cathcart’s mouth; | Guerrero’s Elects Casserly’s park at Ocean View. Seventy- six dogs are entered, and they will com- pete for prizes of $250, §125, two prizes of $50 each and four of $15 each. John Grace Jr. will judfe the courses and James Wren will act as slipper, The drawing of the dogs was held last evening in Pythian Hall, on Market street.

[Sketched from life by a *“ Call™ artist.] but Reno’s pet punch was what is called ,‘the kidney blow,” which he placed over the Olympic man’s kidneys several times. In the third Reno had it pretty near all his own way. Cathcart landed afew good stiff blows, but as a receiver he was the leading man. In the fourth round Cathcart tried for a knock out and smashed Reno several hard lefts in the mouth, drawing a good color. It was give and take, however, up to the finish, when the judges ordered an extra round as they were unable to decide the match. After minutes’ rest they went at it again. Both were tired and weak, and it was give and take to the finish. Cathcart slipped and fell, but it ‘was not a knock down as some members supposed. The referee and judges could not decide on points and another round was ordered, which was won cleanly by Reno. There were many spectators who thought that Cathcart should have the de- cision. The next on the fistic bill was a meeting between N. Sullivan, of the 8an Francisco Athletic Club, lu&uunda, and C. Slam- berg, of the Acme Club, 134 pounds. This was expected to be one of the star events of the evening. The first round was a preliminary canter as it were for what was o come, and a few good blows were ex- changed. Slamberg had a long lead in points at the finish. The bout up to this time created much amusement, owing to Sullivan’s style of boxing, which was courageous but awkward. In the third, Sullivan went to his knees from the effects of a counter, berghmdthtbenoht.l 4 J. McCormick’s Freestone; T. J. Cronin’s_Best Trump vs. P. Kelly’s Belle; P. Ryan’s Lady Fitzgerald vs. W.

The seed of the plant ‘‘pride of China’’ grows a fruit cllled?‘madbgrry” evhichml!n- toxicates birds that feed upon it, [ and its effect will undoubtedly prove beneficial to racing. Yesterday the judges cautioned another boy about some “kalamazoo” rides he has been putting up of late, and if he is wise it behooves him to heed their advice. That clever little light-weight rider, Eddie Jones, endeavored to liven up a rather dull day’s racing by winning all four of the mounts he accepted yesterday. He was carded to have ridden Olivia in the last race, but the filly was scratched late in the day, which left him with a win- ning record. Eddie has now regained his old form and is riding with the same vigor and skill that he showed before meeting with the accident that kept him ont of the saddle so long. The attendance was light and the bet- ting ring presented anything but an ani- mated appearance. The openirg race at six and a half fur- longs was not oue to enthuse over. Prince Devine was apparently the class of an un- classified lot and went to the post a 9 to 10 favorite. He took the lead after half the distance had been traversed and won rid- den out from Minnie Beach, at one time as good as 40 to 1 in the betting. Edna M was third. Red Wing ran away and was left at the post. Carmel was a hot tip for the second race. a five and a half furlong dash, but finished fourth after being backed down from 7to 5to 1. The 2 to 1{avorite, Fly, led the whole distance and won by three lengths. In a drive Weber took second place with the 20 to 1 shot. Soledad, who beat Grand Lady a head. Both the latter and Carmel got away from the post badly, but ran an ex- cellent race. For the third race, a short six furlong s{mrt, McFarlane and Heartsease went to the post equal favoritesat 11 to 5. Mamie Scott, Gypsette gelding and Eventide were all well supported at longer prices. The heavily plugged McFarlane showed most prominent as the flag fell, but only for an instant, as Heartsease took up the r\mninq and was never headed, winning by two lengths from the clumsily ridden Gypsette gelding, with a stable boy up. Nellie G was a distant third. McFarlane could not keep himself warm,and Mamie Scott was but little better. ‘With three favorites in, Myron, the3 to 1 first choice for the fourth race at six fur- longs, went out and made it four straight. He took the lead shortly after the start, and won by a length from Joe Cotton. Duchess of Milpitasfinished in third place, but was disqualified for a foul and Banjo given third money. Trix showed no speed whatever in the race, with Peters up. Could five straight favorites win? This was the question that was agitating the minds of the talent as even money was chalked against White and Clarke’s Com- mission, with Pigeott up; their stable jockey, Hinrichs, having the mount on the second choice, Bernardo. It ended in a cake-walk for the favorite, as Bernardo, whilein the lead after run- ning a half, began to bleed, and was pulled up. Commission finished twelve lengths in front of Hy Dy, with Centurion in third place. Considering the condition of the track, the time, 1:42, was fast. MuLEOLLAND. SUMMARY.

ST. MARY'S FIELD DAY, Athletic Students Exhibit Brawn and Skill on the Cinder Path, St. Mary’s College Athletic Association held its field day yesterday at the Olympic Club grounds, and although the track was rather heavy and the afternoon showery it ‘was quite a successful event.

The annual banquet of St. Mary’s Col- lege was held in th% college dining-hall at night, when events of the day were re- viewed With great enthusiasmi BEGATIA AT EL CAMPD Promises to Be the Biggest Event Ever Held in America. The Stockton Boys Are Looked Upon as a Very Formid- able Set. In the leading stores about town are to be found placards advertising the great regatta which will be held on Thursday at El Campo. In point of numbers this re- gatta will be the largest that has ever been given in the United States, there being three more entries in the races than there were in the Austin regatta. The beauntiful trophies which are now on exhibit at Raphaels’ are without doubt the finest that have ever been offered in any line of ath- letics, and serve as an inducement to the contestants in addition to the honor of winning the championship, which will be determined at this time. Just at present there is talk of nothing else in athletic circles but this regatta. Of the seven crews entered in the junior barge race, the knowing ones pick the Olympics and the St. Mary’s as the probable win- ners. These teams, by their close applica- tion to work and the good material em- ployed, have developed into excellent oarsmen. The Stockton boys are looked upon as formidable opponents by the bay clubs in the senior barge race. Rowing is having quite a boom at. Stockton, and the crew that will be sent all the way to El Campo to contest for the close champion- ship is dead in earnest, and the city boys appreciate that fact. The senior crew of the Pioneer Club is in magnificent condi- tion, and are looked upon as being likely to give the Stockton and South End boys an exceedingly close race. The second race on the 1grcgrtnmne was to have been a single-skull race between Duplissea, Hanniver, Fritz and Banning, all of the South End, but the South End Club, out of its usual spirit of magnanim- ity, decided to let only membersof other clubs contest for the valuable prizes which are to be given to the first three men in this event, and therefore declared that the second race would be an outriiger skiff race. None of the South End boys will participate in this event, and_the prizes will be, for the first gold medal, for the second gold medal, and for the third a pair of fine sculls. The entries in this race are L. H. Haussler and J. D. Coughlan of the Dolphin Club, Bob Eilis and Will McCaus- land of the Ariels, W. J. Blanchard of the Corinthian Yacht Club, two men from the Columbia of Oakland and two men from the A. B. C. Club of Alameda. Len Haus- sler is looked upon as the probable winner of this event, with one of the Columbia men for the second }Jlace. Blanchard has been mnnm?l assidulously for the last two weeks and has reduced in weight some twelve pounds, and should make a very in- cemmfi Tace. Bob McArthur of the Olympics is under- taking a stupendous feat in entering his crew in both barge races, but he neverthe- less talks very confidently of success. In case his expectations are fulfilled a rowing annex to the Olympic Club is a certainty. Already the members are taking great in- terest in the work of their crew, and each Sunday mornm%) large delegation accom- Ppanies the crew to its training quarters. STOCKTON'S S _CONTINGENT. Governor Budd Is Coming With the Athletic Association. STOCKTON, Car., May 28.—The barge crew of the Stockton Athletic Association that is to compete in the senior barge race at El Campo Thursday left on to-night’s boat, taking with it the barge Jim Budd. The crew is composed of F, Batler, stroke; H. C. Van Meter, forwardwaist; C. B. Hart, afterwaist; J. Perrott-Jr., bow; D. B. Trahern, coxswain. The crew is accompanied by its manager and coach, David Creanor, and by Duke Manchester, the trainer. The men are in the pink of condition, and will make their competitors work to win. Governor Budd has telegraphed that he will be at El Campo to cheer for the Stockton men. Several hundred people will go from here to witness the race. A launch will convey a special party from here to-morrow, and the tug Elaine will tow down a catamaran with a number of society people on board. The Stockton men have rowed the course in several seconds better time than the best made by the crews on the bay. LATE WHEELING NEWS. To-Morrow’s Racing Will Be Good—The Racing Board Again Heard From. The bicycle track at Central Park pre- sents a lively scene nightly with the many racers there in training for the Bay City ‘Wheelmen’s meet to-morrow. Burke and Castleman are here from Los Angeles and are riding very fast. Wells, Foster, Long and Haley, local class B men, are riding at their best, although Foster and Wells are both still sore from their fall at the Fabi- ola fete. Of the class A men Harry Ter- rill appears to be the best, but as he must ride from scratch the handicap men will have a good chance, and Metcalf, Mott, Languetin, Day, Clerk, McFarland and some of the other entrants will undoubt- edly be up front at the finish. An interesting feature of Thursday’s bicycle races at the Central Park track will be a special race between Frank Rudolph and Walter McMenomy at one mile. It seems these young men finished first and second respectively in a race at the butch- ers’ picnic last week. McMenomy thinks he can defeat Rudolph, however, so they will have a match race to-morrow in con- junction with the Bay City Wheelmen’s meet. As Rudolph’stime for the mile race last week was 2:34 on a dirt track it should prove a fast event on the cement track. There was an exciting match race last Saturday morning in the park between H. C. Ahlers and Count Cavalier. The former had been parading his racing ability be- fore the count, who finally challenged him to a race from the Baker-street entrance to the park out to the bridge crossing the railroza tunnel near the beach and return, a distance of about eight and a half miles, Last Saturday morning at 7 o’clock was the time set for the contest, and Frank Fak, Allan Marshall, Harry Tuckey and James Duncan were on hand to act as of- ficials. Fifty dollars was placed by the riders in _various bets as to the winner, time made, etc. Marshall was sent abead to the end of the course to see that they completed the full distance. At the start Ahlers took the lead and held it all the way out, the count being contented to hang on behind. This posi- tion was maintained on the return until the superintendent’s house was reached, when the count assumed the lead and set a merry pace down the panhandle, win- ning by 100 yards in 28 minutes and also a considerable sum in side bets. Ahlers complained of cramps and de- manded a return match, which was agreed to and will be run as soon as the men have trained a little. The racing board of the League of Amer- ican Wheelmen has issued its bulletin No. 10 under date of May 28, 1895, as follows: Sanctions granted—May 30, Santa Barbara Wheelmen, Santa Barbara; May 30, Redlands Cycling Club, Redlands; May 30, Coronado Track Association, San Diego. Transferred to cfass B—George L. Hall of San Francisco for cnmfietin with B men at Oak- land May 22; W. E. McCrary of San Bernar- dino for’ com;etxng with B men at San Ber- nardino Mey 22. Suspended—A. W. Cleaver of Los Angeles from all racing, pending investigation of charges of professionalism. The attention of racing men is called to the mnew rule of the National racing board requir- ing a deposit of $1 in all appeals from the de- on of a referee, to be. forieited if the de- cision is sustained, otherwise to be returned. R. M. WELCH, Chairman Racing Board, ACME ATHLETIC OLUB. Interesting Events That Have Been Ar- ranged for Next Month in Oakland. The board of directors of the Acme Ath- letic Club has announced that the club’s next “Ladies’ Night” will be held on the evening of June 4. The programme will consist of musical selections by the orches- tra and gymnastics by members of the club. On the evening of June 5 the patrons of fisticufls will have an inning. An ex- cellent programme of boxing contests has been arranged, to terminate with a four- round bout for a handsome trophy be- tween F. Thurman of the Olympic Club and F. A, Maynard of the Acme Club. It is not at all improbable that the direc- tors will try and induce Payne of Sacra- mento to meet Kennedy of the Olympic Club. Ttis thought that the Sacramento 1ad will haye sufficiently recovered by that time from his recent sickness to give Ken- nedy a return match. A contest between those men should prove a very interesting event, as Kennedy says he was entirely out of condition when he met and was defeated by Payne at Fresno recently. On June 2 the Bay City and Acme Club wheelmen will bave a joint run to Camp Taylor, and on June 18 the California_Associated Cycling Clubs will hold their annual picnic at Niles Canyon, and all members who desire to attend either of these runs are requested to notify the secretary, J. P. Cook, or the captain of the Acme Club Wheelmen, J, Kitchen Jr., as soon as possible. Sir Morell Mackenzie M.
