TWENTY-FIVE MILES, 1:10:30 2-5 Henry Noonan of the Santa Rosa Wheelmen Captured First Place. The fourth annual twenty-five mile han- dicap road race of the California asso- ciated cycling clubs was run yesterday over what is known as the San Leandro triangle, and in points of entrants and always had the reputation in his own locality of being a speedy, determined road rider, and when the Santa Rosa Club decided to enter several of its men in the race he was looked upon as the most pro- mising candidate for a front position at the firish. His net riding time was 1 hour, 15 minutes 23 seconds which isconsidered very fast and would have been the coast recOrd two years ago. There were a great many falls and headers taken during the race from vari- ous causes and the distance also proved |rrmg for some of the men, for a man must be a hardy rider to stand a twenty- mile race at the killing pace he must keep up to be in at the finish. For those reasons only forty-seven of the actual starters com- pleted the ride and they came in covered with dust from head tofootand completely worn out from the excitement ana tension upon the nerves. None of the tumbles taken by the men who met with accidents were very serious, G. A. Nissen of the Acme Club ran into a man who tried to cross in front of him near the finish and was cut considerably about the arms and head. F. A. McFarlana of San Jose went down with a bunch of riders whose wheels got tangled together. He was up in a jiffy and jumped on the first wheel he coula grab and was off agan, finishing third in point of time made. The wheel he took belonged to Hardy Downing of the Garden absolutely refused to do their share of the work in this regard, preferring to hang back and merely foliowing the others. While this was unsportsmanlike and seemed like taking an uniair advantage of the others’ efforts, it served them to no purpose, as Wells and Edwards both beat them across the tape. C. M. Smith of the Garden City Cyclers made a splendid ride and finished within four seconds of Wells’ net riding time. He was allowed four minutes handicap, being the fifty-ninth man to start. e finished ninth, passing fifty men on the road. J. E. Edwards, who rode second to Wells for fastest time, is known as a crackajack among road riders, and it was no great'sur- | brise to his clubmates in the Olympic Wheelmen to see him do sowell. He rode a clean, sportsmanlike race, setting more than his share of the pace, he and Wells relaying each other in_this respect every few miles. He beat McFarland, Byrne and the others with apparent ease, and ‘Wells was the only one of the scratch men whom he could not pass at the finish. The race was splendidly handled by the officials in charge and a greatdeal of credit is due to Chairman Stratton of the road racing committee for the perfection of ar- rangements and details. The timing, scoring and judging, the most important features at the start and finish, were in the HE TAKES T AS A FAVOR Removal of John P.

On Washington’s birthday of each year since 1893 the various clubs belonging to the association have run a twenty-five mile race over this course, and as all the prominent clubs of this part of the State are included—twenty-three in all—it brings -together the fastest riders hereabouts. There were seventy-nine entrants in yes- terday’s event, but five of whom failed to start, and this left more than double the number of contestants in any previous race to compete for glory and the valuable prizes offered. The course which the riders traversed was in splendid condition for road racing, and excent for a short patch, where sand had blown upon it, was hard and smooth. There was some wind in the riders’ faces on_one side of the triangle, but not sui- ficient to retard their speed in any great measure, _For a twenty-five mile race the San Leandro course is an ideal one for the wheelmen. The start is madecon the Hay- wards road about a quarter of a mile north- east of San Leandro; the riders here have the base of the triangle, which they follow for a short way, and then turn to the right and take the perpendicular thxough San Lorenzo, turning west here upon the hypothenuse back to the starting poiut, The total distance is eight and a third miles, and by making the circnit three times. the required twenty-five miles are completed, and the spectators have seen the start of the race, watched the riders pass them twice, and are *in at the finfsh.’ The limit men, six in number, who were allowed ten minutes’ handicap, were sent away by Starter De Witt Van Court promptly at 10:30 o'clock, and in rapid succession, at intervals of half a minute, in bunches of from two to eight, the others followed them. There was an immense assemblage of wheelmen and other specta- tors at the starting .point, and the crowd was hard to control, but the riders all got well along on their journey without seri- ous mishap. Then the people began to speculate among themselves as to who ~wox(xlld win and how fast time. would be made. ¢ Prior to vesterday’s race it was generally admitted that the prizes for fastest time would fall to one of the scratch men, but no one seemed to be able to pick the win- ner of first place from among the three prophecies were offered, which the actual result completely upset. Henry Noonen of the S8anta Rosa Wheel- men, 10 whom the handicapper had al- lowed the full limit of time allowance (ten minutes), \%’ovcd the winner, while Charles 8. Wells of the Bay City Wheel- men, the giant champion of all coast class B track-racers last year, won the prize and honor most valned among wheelmen for having made the fastest time. His net riding time for the distance was 1 hour 10 minutes and 30 2-5 secends, which also es- tablishes a new coast record, the best ‘revious performance being shat of Walter l“. Foster of the Olympic Club W..eelmen in a similar race just one year ago, whose time was 1 hour 12 minutes and 554-5 seconds. Wells was in splendid shape to ride a winning race, as he had been at Coronado all winter lmininF aud riding for records with one of the big racing teams. He left there Tuesday by steamer and arrived bere Friday morning, taking a trial spin over the course that afternoon. This was all the practice he had over the road though he had ridden it so oiten before as to know every inch of t e way, almost. The winner of first place, N'oonan, has score and ten handicap men, though many | | City Gyclers, so the latter had to walk in | to San Leandro, | The bunch of scratch men, which in- | cluded Yeoman (Reliance), McIarland | (San_ Jose), Byrne (Imverial), Edwards | (Olympic) and Wells (Bay City) completed | the first circuit of the triangle in 21 min. 50 3-5 sec., the second time around it took them 23 min 4-5 sec.,and the third time 25 min. 27 sec. At the finish all was ex- citement, the road being lined with peopie for fully balf a mile, who were kept from crowding on to the path by ropes stretched between trees. A pretty spurt was wit- nessed as the men neared the tape, Wells leading Edwards, McFariand, Griffiths and Byrne by but a few inches, and they finished in that order, each being scarcely balf a wheel's length behind the other. The greatest credit attaches to Wells for having made the fastest time over the course and for beating the other scratch men, who are all known to be speedy road | riders. Of course this detracis nothing | from Noonan's winning first place with a | 10-minute handicap, for the two perform- | ances were entirely_different from each other in character, Noonan having to set most of his own pace and lead the race the entire way, while Wells had to battle with the other cracks for position and then out- spurt them at the tape, which he did quite cleverly.

Some of th¢ wheelmen thought that as the day was fair and the course in good condition, the American twenty-five-mile record would be broken. It stands at 1 hour 2 minutes 20 seconds, and was made bf Cal. Paxson of the Parkside Wheel Club, Buffalo, N, Y., September 30 last. Wells thinks he might have equaled or ex- ceeded it, if he and Edwards had not been forced to set all the pace for the scratch men. Yeoman lent a little assistance, but not much, while McFarland aud Byrne hands of competent men, and there was never & hitch oran error in all their work. Wells got a gold Swiss split-second watch and Edwards an unset diamond,’as first and second time prizes. The first- | place prize, which went to Noonan, was also a gold watch, and there were sixteen other prizes, all of considerable value. The possession for the time being of the Olympic trophy, which was won by the Acme Club last October in the annual ten- mile race, and is to be competed for in every event of the association until some club wins it three times, was decided by the race, and it goes to the Santa Rosa Wheelmen, who made seven points by Noonan’s winning first place. The Bay City Wheelmen made 5, California Cycling Club 5, Alameda Cyclers 3, Olympic Club ‘Wheelmen 3, and San Jose Road Club 1.

An exciting and interesting game of football was played between the Crockers and Howards at Central Park yesterday afternoon, ending in a victory for the former by a score of 6 to 4. ¢ The playing of both teams throughout showed a knowledge of the game that was remarkable for young men who have no limtior training and who play but once a week. The star play was that of Atkinson, who made a run of forty vards with splendid interference. The individual playing on both teams was exceedingly good. In the first half both teams scored. The Howards made the first touchdown, but their fullback was unable to kick a goal. On ?)lay being resumed the Crockers got the ball and by the repeated bucking of their opponents' line and a foul tackle, which hetted them twenty-five yards, they secured a touchdown. Stroecher succeeded in kicking a goal. Score: 6 to 4. In the second half the Crockers had the kick-off. Stroecher kicked for 35 vards, the ball being canght by Atkinson, who made a run of 40 yards with good interference. “I'he Howards rushed the ball down to the 5-yard line, but the ball was lost on downs, The Crockers then kicked the ball into safe territory, and after that neither side scored. F. H. Kingston acted as umpire, F., V. Thrasher referee and Mr. Porter of the Olympic Club linesman and timekeeper. The following was the makeup of the tozms, Howards. Positions. Substitutes 8.

If the United States had 2s greata rela- tive population as Japan it would have a population of 960,000,000 people, done the thing. It was nothing less than ingenious. The offer of a commission would have been to insult me. The Gov- ernor would not insult me—he has gone to the other extreme. That is2ll-I have to say.” This was what John P. Irish said last night concerning his rémoval by the Gov- ernor from the office of director of the In- dustrial Home for the Adult Blind, an of- fice which Colonel Irish has held for many years. He had been called away from the banquet board of the Iroquois Club at Delmonico’s 10 get some expression from him concerning the matter, and having given it, in the words quoted, he returned smilingly to his chair at the same ban- quet board at which Governor Budd was one of the guests. . The removal of Colonel Irish from the directorship of the Industrial Home for the Adult Blind has occasioned quite a flut- ter, especially among the Democratic poli- ticians of Oakland. Governor Budd, by telegram, summoned D. S. Hirschberg of Oakland to Sacramento on £aturday, asked him if he would accept an appoint- ment as director. He said he would and was forthwith given the commission and Colonel Lrish was informed of the fact. Colonel Irish was president of the old board, made up of four Republicans and one Democrat, he being the Democrat. The others were F. A. Leach, A, D. Thomson, F. H. Campbell and George Morrow. Governor Budd removed all of these save Leach, who is now the only Republican on the board, and in their places named Colonel N.T. James of this City, John R. Glaseock and T. C. Coogan of Oakland. Colonel James was chosen chairman of the board. The new board only formally organized in December, but have been making changes in rapid succession in the policy and management. First the blind superintendent, Sanders, was removed and J. C. Hays, son of Jack Hays of Alameda,. the Texas Ranger, was made superin- tendent. The blind foreman of the broom factory was removed and a ‘“‘seeing” fore- man placed in his stead. A new night watchman and a new cook were appointed and a number of other changes are being. discussed. b Colonel Irish was a champion of the blind superintendent, Sanders. It was through him tirat S8anders was brought out from the Philadelphia Industrial Insti- tute as instructor, and through him, also, that he was some time afterward made superintendent. All the members of the old board declarethat he was very success- ful in his superintendency. His wife served as'matron without pay. A committee of the last Legislature vis- ited the institution, and in its report criti- cized it pretty severely. Governor Budd declares this regort to be the occasion of his removal of Colonel Irish. Colonel James, in an interview yester- day, said: “There are as many factions in" the Democratic politics of Oakland as there are Democrats. I know that Colonel rish has &rovoked the bitter en- mity of several of the more influential of these, and they have brought the strong- est kind of pressure to bear upon the Gov- ernor_to effect his removal. Irish has been in opposition to the majority of the board since the reorganization. It is one of those situations where harmony must exist or it mi:ht-as well go out of business. The Governor thought him- self justified in trying to bring about that barmony. No, the majority of the board, 48 & majority, has made no representation to that effect, and I can’t dividuals of the majority.’ SHELL MOUND RIFLEMEN.

PADEREWSKI IN OAKLAND The Polish Pianist Givés a Re- cital at the Macdonough Theater. ’u’pelk for the in- HE IS WELCOMED BY SOCIETY. Applause Grows More Enthusiastic All Through the Splendid Programme. OARLAND OrricE SAN FrANcISCO Cnu,} 908 Broadway, Feb. 22. Paderewski made his first appearance in Oakland at the Macdonough Theater to- night and, asusual, conquered hisaudience more and more with each number he played. The house was a brilliant one, society having turned out in force to welcome the great pianist. There were not the crowd- ing and crushing that marked Friday afternoon’s recital at the California The- ater—indeed, empty seats were in evidence in several parts of the dress circle, but the upper regions of the theater were crowded, and, as usual, most of the-applause came from aloft. The audience did not begin to arrive very eurly, and as Paderewski was punc- tual a number of people were taken by surprisc to find that the recital had begun when they arrived. No one disturbed the opening sonata by entering while it was in progress, and at its conclusion the artist obligingly withdre% for several minutes, which gave an opportunity to belated listeners to seek their seats at their leisure and without having to hustle with the conscicusness that they were keeping Paderewski waiting, for he makes a point of not playing till the ushers have done their work. To-night’s programme was in the main the one performed last Monday week, when the pianist opened his-San Fran- cisco engagement. A second hearing only heightens the impression of Paderewski's fnarvelous ability in rendering it, how- ever. There was a contingent of San Francisco admirers who had followed their idol to Oakland, and they were none of them heard lamenting ‘that they had heard the programme before; on the con- trary most of them enjoyed it more on that account. The programme was an im- provement on its predecessor, as it wasen- riched by the addition of two numbers, a Paganini-Schumann ‘‘Capriccio”, an Liszt’s “Etude de Concert. The only otheT change from the recital which first introduced Paderewski to a -San Francisco audience was that he sub- stituted a nocturne of his own composi- tion for his caprice, The stages by which the Polish magi- cian conquered his audience were about the same as usual. By the end of the third number the feat was accomplished. The Beethoven C major sonata enthused musicians, the Schubert “Impromptu’’ in B flat infused every one, and the Paganini- Schumann *Capriccio” completed the worg which the others had begun. There was such a demand for the encore that Paderewski repeited the lovely little “‘Capriccio.”’ ; In the “Midsummer Night's Dream’ fantasie arranged for the pianoforte by Liszt the audience would scarcely let the player proceed for applause. When the theme changes it is easy for a listener not familiar with the transcription to imagine that the end has come. Paderewski’s admirers to-night evidently found it hard to bottle up their admira- tion to the finale. Such an illumniation thrown on anything that has been dese- crated as much and as often as the “Wed- ding march” is an excellent excuse for any amount of applause, even if it comes in a little prematurely. An éncore to the Mendelssohn-Liszt number being demanded Paderewski gave his hearers some more Mendelssobn, the *“‘Spinning Song,” from the “Songs With- out Words,"” which is often inaccurately called “The Bees’ Wedding.”" The Chopin cluster of six pieces was played with the Slavic eaprice and grace in which the Polish player is moreat home than any pianist has ever been except perhaps Chopin himself, Paderewski is almoss as patriotic in his musicas his great compatriot, and the samples *he gives of his own compositions frequently breathe the spirit of Chopin. One cannot heip regretting that his *‘Polish Fantasia’™ is not to be given in California, for, from all accounts, it is a beautiful work and gives proof that Paderewski, unlike Chopin, is master of orchestral writing. The player’s own nocturne was & charm- ing bit of music and his **Minuet,” which never seems to grow hackneyed, was also received with demonstrations of satisfac- tion. The Liszt “Etude” and the second “Rhapsodie” ended the programme, and the audience showed no disposition to go; on the contrary every one sat and ap- plauded till Paderewski came on again and played the Schubert-Listz “Erl King.” Among those present to-night were: b Box B—Mrs. Joseph Austin, Mrs. William Hamilton, Miss Robinson, Miss Flora Keene, Miss Harrison.
