CHICAGO, ILv, Aug. 21.—In three izbt heats—time, 2:02, 2:04}; and 4—Star Pointer to-day aguin and de- cisively lowered the colors of Joe Patchen. Sixteen thousand people saw the race at Washington Park. lhe spectators were st | rewarded by a race, one heat of which was about the most sen-ational ever witnessed. In the firs: heat oi the great match 8 Pointer and Joe Patchen crossed the finish line on so nearly even terms that those most careful in” their observations will never be able to satisfy themselves, The mistake mizht not have been tue judges’ in declaring Star Pointer the winner, Moreover the time wa. the fastest fora firsi heat in harness ever paced. In the second heat S'ar Poin er won with ease and he took the third by a length. L‘LOSIIIE:’ DAY AT CHIcO. | Seven Heats Trotted Bsfore Mamie Griffin Captures the 2:13 Class Event.

They were Mamie Griffin by Blackbird-Morrell, bred nesr Chico and owned by Colonel Park Henshaw of Chico; Zombro by Me- Kinnay-Whisper, entered by G. F. Beckers, and Jasper Ayres by Irs i A. Perkius.

Sharick of the Sound City Victor In the Prof:ssional Event at Two Miles, | TACOMA, WisH, Aug. 21.—On the | Pierce County fair grounds to-day was | tne first bicycle meet since the Tacoma | riders sec ded from the League of Ameri- can Wheelmen. The meet was under the auspices of the Tacoma Race Promoters’ of the California Associated Cycling Clubs. The afternoon’s programme com- prised a two-thirds of a mile and a two- mile handicap professional races and am- ateur handicap races of one and five miles. The meet brought together the crack riders of California and Puget Sound, and each of the two professional races were splendid contests. The two-thirds mile was an open event. It was brilliantly won by Hardy Downing of San Jose, with W. B. Vanghan of San | Diego second and George Sharick of Ta- coma third. Sharick is krnown as ‘“‘the | wonder of the Northwest.” His friends expectea he would win. Viewed from a | local standpoint, it seems that Sharick | thought he had to beat Ziegler of San | Jose. the racing partner of Downing, the | winner. Sbarick accordingly trailed egler for nearly two laps, or until they ihey were entering the end stretch. See- | ing that Ziegler was not trying to win he | started atier Downing, and made a mag- | nificent effort. He closed a large gap, passing several other riders and was able to win third place. In the two-mile handicap, local riders had better luck. On the fourth of the six laps Ziegler, who had startea at scratch, Hanaball 20 sloau). 6 10 1. Anis nullid out.

NEW YORK, N. Y., Aug. 2L.—Twenty thousand people saw the diminutive Welsh rider, Michael, defeat the American rider, Starbuck, of Philadelphia, in the thirty-three-mile race at Manhattan Beach to-day by two miles.

His tire became deflated and he used another wheel, but this did not suir, and he finally went back 10 his old wheel, which bad been repaired. Michael made a new American record for fifteen miles in 25 minutes 11 seconds, and a new Lour record by covering thirty miles and une lapin that time; also new records from fifteen to thirty-three miles.

Officers Are Installed, Votes of Thanks Passed and the Con- ventlon Adjourns. SANTA ROSA, Can, Aug. 12.—The thirteenth Grand Council of the Young Men’s Institute is but a pleasant memory. The session terminated this morning and to-night the delegates reluctansly bade Santa Rosa farewell. The delegates met in Odd Fellows’ Hail at 7:30 o’clock this morning, Rev. Father Slattery, the grana chaplain, opened the session with prayer and then the unfin- ished business was taken up. The finance committee rendered a report snowing that the approvriations made by the Grand Council aggregated $8415, apportioned to the salary, lecture, printing, mileage, sup- ply and miscel'aneous funds, The per capita tax was fixed at $2, of which amount 75 cents will be the share of the Supreme Council. The thanks of the council were extend- ed to the gentlemen who last year lec- tured under the auspicesof the Central Lecture Bureau. * It was unanimously agreed that the Grand Council of 1800 should be held in San Francisco. During the summer of that year a magnificent twentieth century celebration is 1o be held, and the fifiieth anniversary of the admission of California to statehood is to be aconspicuous feature of the demonstration. Institute intends to take a prominent part in the State’s semi-centennial jubilee. Telegrams of congratulation and coun- sel were receiv d from Bishop Montgom- ery ol Los Angeles and Bishop O'Nary of Nesqualy, Wash,, and the reading of them was received with l&phnu. The retiring grand officers were ex- tended a rising vote of tuanks. In re- sponse to this.graceful tribute of apprecia- tion each retiring officer made a few ap- propriate remarks, and was roundly cheered. The installation of the newly elecied grand officers was the concludinz work of the session. The ceremony was impressively performed by Deputy Su- yreme President John Lynch of Oakiand. The delegates and members of Santa Rosa Council formed in parade at 11 o'clock and, led by the Santa Rosa band and the Common "Council in a carriage, marched down Fourth street to the de- pot to meet the excursionists.

Skeleton of a Giant Found Rude Sepulcher on Fine Ridge. UKIAH, CaL., Aug. 21.—The discovery of the bones of a giant in a rudely exca- vated holein a limestone rock on the western side of Pine Riage has aroused consiaerable interest among local anthro- vologists. U. N. Briggs and Frank Patton unearthed the remains of what appeared to be a prehistoric man last week while out hunting on Pine Ridge. It being quite warm the husters had sought a shady place at the base of a tall limestone chiff. They sat for an hour or so enjoying the soit breezes wafted from the valley beyond, and Briggs in poking around in a hole in the rock unearthed several bones. They appeared to be those of a human be- ing. Upon closer scrutiny it was aiscov- ered that the cavity in which the bones bad been deposited was evidently the work of human hands. The walls had been cut with a sharp-pointed ins~rument and the entrance to the tomb or sepuicher bad at one time been closed up. The hunters examined the tomb closely and found a number of bones of the jeet and bands and a portion of the skull. The re- mains will be sent to the Smitusonian In- stitution. in a
