THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1895 Interesting Sporting Events at Home and Abroad. ON THE EASTERN TRACKS. STA TA GREAT AT RS STARTED IN TH MUNICIPAL HANDICAP HENRY OF NAVARRE WON IT.| 1 ANITA LING EF- X (. 1., Oct. 24.—The ex- cellent programme presented here to-day brought out a large attendance, fuily 5000 persons being pre: The weather was perfect for racing purposes and the track was hard and fast, which made the sport | interesting throughout. The event of the | day was the Municipal handicap, for | which such stars as Henry of Navarre, | Rey el 8 n and Clifford were en- tered. E: had a good following in the ring. but Henry of Navarre had the | call and went to the post the favorite at odds of To a perfect start, the light- wei rews set out to make the and at the balf-mile he was six sths in the lead.

Lawvers Benjamin Steinlart and Julius Lehman went to the Essex Market court | this morning, accompanied by George T. Henley of Brooklyn, and on behalf of the people of the State of New York swore out warrants for the arrest of Samuel B. Law- rence, John Doe, Richard Doe and others {on four different charges of violating the gambling laws. | . Magistrate Crain fixed bail in each case | in the sum of $1000, and set the examina- | tion of the defendants down for next Mon- | day afternoon at 2 o’clock. Bail was im- | mediately furnished and all the prisoners | were released. Lawyers Steinbart and | hman state that the violation of the law | consists in the running of sweepstakes— | that is to say, races in which certain amounts are put up by horse-owners in the nature of & wager; whereas, if the rac- ing association bad offered a prize by themselves it would be constitutional. AR YALE DEFEATED WILLIAMS. = | The Visitors Were Unable to Tally During | the Game. NEW HAVEN, Cosx., Oct. 24.—Yale and Williams played their second game of | the season to-day. The visitors were | unable to tally. At one time they had the | ball on Yale's fifteen-yard line. Williams | Hickey, Street and McGowan, owing to | injuries, and under the circumstances the | eleven from the smaller college putupa | first-rate game. | Draper, who acted as captain, played at fullback, and his work was magnificent. He kicked and ran finely, and played a brainy game. Lee, the left'guard, was also | field to the mile and a quarter, | where Henry of Navarre headed him and | Rey el Santa Anita came up and took | second place. This order was maintained | to the finish, Rey el Santa Anita making | plucky but unavailing efforts to get up, and Henry of Navarre winning amid great cheers by a length, with his mouth open, in 3 Five furlongs, Wexford won, Lily Mills sec- ond, Sebastiau third.

NEW YORK, N.Y., Oct. 24.—If the po- lice could have transported the horses that ran at Morris Park racetrack this after- noon to Essex Market court, nothing would have been needed to hold a second edition of the races.

Yale punted finely, and gained ground every time. Her running was another feature of her play, and the team decided improvement. Yale had the south goal ana kicked off to Draper, who ran thbirty yards. Thorne regained this in a couple of shorter and Jerrems was sent over the line for a touchdown five minutes after the game began. Thorne kicked the goaland rantwenty yards. De | Witt fumbled, but Sheldon secured the ball | and made a slight gain. Rogers and Jerrems followed with a few yards each, and Jerrems made a touch-down, from which no goal was kicked.

NELSON RAN LIKE A GHOST. REDINGTON SHOwED His HEELs TO A SHIFTY LoT OF YOUNGSTERS. Santa Rosa, who was backed down several points in the opening race yesterdsy, broke down., The popular turfman, Joe Ullman, writes a iriend in this City that he will leave Chicago for San Francisco on November 5. Ed Purser’s sprinter Mahogany made his re- appearance in the second race after a long rest. He looks good and should be heard from in the near future. W. Williams, who rode Sleeping Child, ap- pears tobe a decided improvement over H. Brown, who had the mount on the Montana horse on Tuesday. A big plunge was made on Marjorie in the kindergarten race, and she proved a disap- pointment. Johnny Coleman of the Stuyvesant Club was particularly sweet on the Eastern mare, laying but little money against her. Riley, who rode Navy Blue in the last race, | | made a botch of it or the gelding would have been much closer to Model at the finish. He certainly made up a lot of ground, but the Sir Modred mare undoubtedly holds him safe. Caliente, who started in the two-year-old event, is a giand-looking youngster. His sire is the dead Joe Hooker, dum Hattie Humphrey, and rumor has it that he isa fast one. He i3 trained by William Murry of Sacramento. Nelson, who won the second race, opened in | the betting at 6 to 5 and went back 102 to 1 from the force of & heavy play that cut the o0dds against Venus from twos to even mone: At post, however, Nelson was a4 to 5 chance and Venus had receded to her original opening price. Secretary Edwin F. Smith of the State Board of Agriculture has sent out the following cir- cular to breeders of thoroughbreds: *We de- sire to call your attention to the conditions of our first nursery stake for colts that now rank as yearlings. Our intention is to provide a rich stake for two-year-olds, to be run annuslly at the California State Fair, to be known after January 1,1896, as the California Futurity. We are prompted to open this stake in this form at this time on account of the number of well-bred yearlings in training. On January 1, 1896, a similar stake will be offered for colts and fillies now ranking as weanlings, and in addition the regular Californis Futurity for mares 10 foal in 1896, The increased oppor- cumbent upon the State Agricultural Society to encourage the breeder by providing a valua- sand people were in attendance.

We confidently expect this stake to be worth from $3000 to $5000 to the winner. The crowd that patronizes the races at the Bay District is getting so well edu- cated in the knots and tangles of racing that the bookies have been kept tip-toeing of late to keep their bank rolls in a healthy- looking state. On Wednesday the long | lines back of the bookmakers* stands at the conclusion of each race spoke well for the success of the talent, and yesterday for- tune again smiled upon them. The tine | weather drew out a good-sized attendance | and the betting was lively. All of the races were captured by horses that had first call in the betting, or nearly so. Possibly Sleeping Child did not have as with the Montana horse. He went lo the Holy Land. BOSTON, Mass., Oct. 24.—One of the most audacious swindling schemes ever perpetrated was brought to the notice of | For | the board of foreign missions to-aay. some time past there has been rumors to the effect that the money sent to the m sionaries in Asiatic Turkey and the Holy Land was being frightfuily misapprop ated. For years past the Baptist and Pres- byterian societies have been represented | by & very powerful converted Jew named | & The whole of the Asi- | Rev. A. Beu Olfel. | atic mission has been intrusted to his | care and large sums of money have been | sent to him. Edwin S. Wallech, who has just returned to the Holy Land, brought the first intelligence that the funds were | being misappropriated and that the saintly | Ben Oliel was a thorongh swindler. | Accordingly the board of missions has | ordered’ that an investigation shall be | made at once. It has been rumored that | the Jewish minister will not be the only | one implicated, as suspicion is directed | nent in the mission fleld. The amounts of the embezzlements, it is thought, will fig- { ure into a very large sum, as undoubtedly these practices have been going on for | years past. ASES AN _INVESTIGATION. Interpreter Harcy Huff Wants to Know Why He Was Dismissed. Harry Huff, who was recently dismissea 11:0{n bis position as interpreter in the United States courts, has demanded an in- vestigation to ascertain why he was dis- | charged. He claims that he was dismissed | without cause and that he is entitled to | vindication. It is said that Collector Wise was respon- sible for his decapitation and that hs friendliness toward a certain_attorney to whom he diverted as many Chinese cases | as possible while acting in his official ca- pacity was the reason of his dismissal. United States Attorney Foote denies that he knows the reason of Huff’s dis. charge and says he merely acted on orders from Washington, > United States Marshal Baldwin yester- day gppointtedLDavid B. Jones, formerly a missionary to China, as temporar: - preter in Huff's stead. e DIRECTORS SUED. Pine Needle Company Stockholders Object to Paying an Assessment. Stockholders of the Pine Needle Com- vany, including George Huarich, Charles Meissner and H. Albert, have begun suit against W. Ludovici, H. P. Dimond, Bar- clay Henley, August von Schilling and W- 0. Ludovici, directors of the company, and ask that they be restrained from selling certain stock which has become delinquent and ordered sold. F. W. Ludovici is president of the board, and it is alleged that in September he falsely represented to the other directors that the company owed him $4068 75 for money loaned,and that thereupon an assess- ment of 75 cents a share was leyied on the stock. The plaintiffs have not paid the as- sessment and they ask Judee Hebbard to prevent the sale of the stock. . | Getting away thirc | {:os( equal choice with Gold Dust—threes \g the general ])rice agdinst the pair. when_ the flag fell, eeping Child headed the field all the way with a shight lead and won handily, three parts of a length before Beatrice, with Ida uers a fair third. he one-eyed demon, Nelson, was a hot 4 to 3 favorite for the next race, and he | rattled off the five furlongs in 1:001; with astounding ease. Five lengths away Gon- dola, 27510 1 shot, and the third choice, Nervosa, battled for the place, the former aining it by a nose. The :wo?'enr-u]d event of five and a half furlongs furnished the liveliest betting proposition of the day. Redington opened a 3 to 2 favorite, but there was such a strong play on Marjorie, Instigator and Claude Hill that 2 to 1 was laid against him when the bell tapped the horses out. Donahue laid away in second and third position' with Redington until well straight- ened away in the stretch, when he gave him his head and he won galloping from Instigator, who beat Billy McCloskey out a nose in a hard drive for second place. The fourth race, over six and a half fur- longs, was another good betting affair. Detective, Rose Clark and Major Cook were the favored ones in the ring, while | May Day and Ricardo carried considerable coin at more lengthy odds than the three first named. At the close Detective and Major Cook were both held at 214 to 1, with Rose Clark at threes. Detective was first away when the flag fell, followed by Major Cook. This was the order until well on toward the wire, where the Major Eassed Detective, and beat him out easily v half a length. Lady Jane took third place in a drive from Rose Clark. The astonishing good odds of 9 to 10 and even money was laid against Model win- ning the mile dash, day. She allowed Elmer F to make the running to the far turn, where she passed him, and won romping in 1:421{. Navy Blue came from next to last place in the stretch, and nipped Limer F out a short head for the place. MMARY.

HOT SPRINGS, Ark., Oct. 24.—It now looks as if there is not the remotest possi- bility of a fight between Corbett and Fitz- simmons. Martin Juhan lett here this morning, ostensibly for Corpus Christi, with the announced purpose of returning here next Wednesday, accompanied by Fitzsimmons and with $10,000 forfeit money in his pocket. Brady gave out a statement this evening to a press association, say- ing that unless Fitzsimmons made good his forfeit by to-morrow at high noon the Corbett party would leave for New York on the ‘‘cannon-ball” train three hours later. Brady signed Corbett’s name to this ultimatum, but as he has done the same thing for four days in sue- cession, only to be subsequently overruled by the champion, the statement is not re- garded as expressing Corbett’s private in- tentions. Vendig is still here, and spent the after- noon at Corbett’s quarters. e “Denver” Smith’s Challenge. JACKSONVILLE, Fra., Oct. 24.—"Den- ver” Ed Smith has come to the surface again. He has been teaching at an ath- letic school in Ja~ksonville for a year and has made some money. This morning he formally notified the sporting editor of the Times-Union that he is ready to fight any man in the world at any time and any place. THE FANS WERE NOT OUT, A SMALL CROWD SPOILED A GODD BALL GAME AT CENTRAL PARK YESTERDAY. PLaYERS Must HAVE MORE EN- ERGY IF BAsEBALL Is To BE A SUCCESS. It was a slim crowd that witnessed the An accident that may result fatally occurred | ball game between the San Francisco and | Los Angeles teams at Central Park yester- day. It was not a bad game, by any means, from point of the plays made, but there | was a woeful lack of old-time vim and ginger in the movements of the players. That the San Francisco and Los Angeles teams can play good ball there is no doubt, but they didn’t do it yesterday, and unless more life is put into " the playing mn the future the revival of the National game in San Francisco is uncertain. The features of the game consisted chiefly in the hard hitting of the “Friscos’’ and the numerous expensive errors on the Hulen of the home team made a home run, Frank in lei field and Powerson first base accomplished a clever double play and McQuaid in left field and Lohman at the plate did likewise for the visitors. Stanley was behind the plate for San Francisco and Harper wasin the box. The former’s work was only average, but Har- per’s efforts were more effective. His speed was not great, but his curves were illusive and but few safe hits were made off his delivery. Mauck in the box for the visitors was not g0 fortunate.

For several months the Olympic Club members had to be satified with warm salt water.

The secretary of the club, Charles Bos- worth, had a conference with William Greer Harrison, vresident of the Olympic Salt-water Company, yesterday, which resulted in an agreement to the effect that henceforth the Olympic Club members days, Wednesdays and Fridays of each week.

SAN JOSE, CaL., Oct. 24.—The San Jose team administered another defeat to the Oaklands this afternoon by the score of 7 to 5. Both of the pitchers seemed to be in good form and pitched a good game, al- though Daniels of the home team proved to be for awhile a puzzler for the visitors. The infield work of both teams was ex- cellent, especially that of O’Rourke of Oak- land, who though he had many chances to juggle the ball played an excellent infield zame, although some of his throws to first base were not exactly in a straight line and resulted in several runs being made for the home team. The home run by Klopf was one of the features of the game,as also the double play made by Hollingsworth, assisted by Twitchell. The former with the dexterity | of a gymnast laid his hands upon a diffi- cult grounder, touched second and with great speed put the ball to first in time to shut outthe runner. The basehits were plentiful. Following is the score: SAN JOSES. AB. R BH. S.B. P.O. A E. McBride, 1 SUE IS 0F 1 L1 0 Weaver, c. 000705 01 010 Niles,3b . T TR G N R | Twitchell, Tb.

Walker swore out a warrant in Judge Campbell’s court yesterday for the arrest of Attorney James H. Long on the charge of obtaining money by false pretenses. Long was a passenger recently on the steamer, and being short of funds, asked Walker to cash a check for $24. The name of his partner, T.J. Crowley, was signed to the check. Walker gave him the money, and when he presented the check at the bank for payment the bank refused to honor it. ———————————————————————————————— e .

When the Kidneys, Liver, Stomach, Heart, Nerves and Blood are charged with this life they throw off disease and regain their healthy state. In this way Dr. Sanden’s Belt has cured thousands. Why Medicine Fails. Drugs are like whisky, only a temporary stimulant, a blind by which the weakened or- gans are put in a stupor to quiet their craving for help; a temporary tonic which braces the up for a'short time and deserts them finally, leaving them worse than before taking. This is true of all drugs used to renew vitality. It does not renew strength because there is no element in medicine to restore the power to the nerves, upon which all vital orga e, That nerve power is electricity. That is why Dr. Sanden’s Belt Cures. “1t cured me of what doctors called Bright's disease after I had spent $700 on medicine without relief.” Chas. Mang, Walla Walla, Wash. “It cured me of Paralysis in fifty-five days after I had tried everything else without avail.” David M. Frame, Veterans’ Home, Napa County, Cal. “It cured me of Nervous Debility in three months. I took barrels of medicine trying to get cured, but nothing did me any good till I got the Belt.” Wm. Dawson, 1422 Sutter street, San Franeisco. “I'would not take $100 for the Belt. It has done me more good than all the medicine I have taken.” Captain Henry Beck of schooner Newari; city address, 240 Montgomery street, San Francisco.

If vou are weak, sick or crippled, see this Belt at once, and a test of its power and & look at the volume after volume of proof of its cures will convert you to the eltar of nature’s truths, and health will be yours from this Wonderful ap- pliance. “Three Classes of Men is Dr. Sanden’s cele- brated work on the development of youthful manhood.
