12 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, JANUARY 20, 1S9S. DOC TUBERVILLE D OSTLER JOF Too Strong a Combination -for “Skeets” Martin’ on Mainstay. Caspar Badly Beaten for the | Rich Reliance Club Han- | dicap. | The Books Crippled Over the Victory of Castake, an Out- sider. i The Acme Club handicap, over six| and a half furlongs, was decided at| Oakland yesterday. It was worth $700 to the first horse and was taken by the black horse Ostler Joe, with Doc Tuberville up, ably assisted by “Skeets” | Martin astride Mainstay. The three horses named were the only starters. | Caspar, the Burns & Waterhouse en-i try, carrying 115 pounds, was & 3 to 5| cholce in the betting. Ostler Joe gen- | erously weighted with 117 was liber- | ally patronized in the books at odds of 2 to 1, while Mainstay was peddled rocked to sleep, but it was by no means a Golden Jubilee celebration for the pencilers. In the final race of the day, Castake, a gelding, which seems to be able to run as fast as he wants to at times, was backed down from 40 to 15 to 1, downing his fleld with perfect impunity, and every book In the ring sold pasteboards on the out- sider. There was no pronounced cholce in the opening five and a half furlong seramble, Aluminum, Einstein, Bram- bella and Monitor all coming in for considerable support. “Skeets” Mar- tin got a flying start with Aluminum and was never headed, winning with something to spare from which filly shows improving form. Blue Bell secured show honors, Einstein could not untrack himself. Monitor was also a min quality so far as epeed was concerned. Neil and Coney finally put up a rider on their shifty youngster Catawb: and he rolled in before the 11 to 10 choice Blarneystone in the six-furlong sprint following. “Skeets” Martin astride the favorite led to the stretch, | with Clawson on Catawba sitting straight under wraps. Straightened for the wire Clawson let out a link and his mount tumbled in five lengths ahead of PBlarneystone. Imperious, away poorly, was third. Louis Ezell scored again in the three- furlong scramble for two-year-olds with Buena Ventura. The filly was an _even money favorite at post time and downed her company quite as eas- ily as she did at her first essay last week, leading Bonibel out several lengths at the finish.” Caesar Young's Clarando fell back a peg, winding up in the show. The consistent performer, Garland Barr, took the mile selling run without much effort. The ring took no liber- ties with him, laying even money most of the time, though 7 to 5 was procur- able. Brambella, | Conley, who had the leg up, | must be 14" One or two “‘funeral directors got the cue and Morse, the jockey, did the rest. Acording to the statement of Judge Murphy. the latter had better migrate to the Klondike, for he stands a poor chance of get- ting & license the coming season. The win of Gariand Barr was an expensive one for Tom Ryan, as he was compelled to stand a $700 raise. The gelding was entered to be sold for §i0), and was boosted to 31400 by Jack Atkins, one of the owners 6f Harry Thoburn, which finished second. Ryan re- tained his horse with the usual $5 bid. A number of gentiemen riders have in con- templation the formation of a club the object of which will be to give races at one or both of the big trdcks for valuable prizes It took Jim Nell some-time to convince his partner. Al Coney, that Catawba was a good one. Yesterday Al was the more enthustastic of ‘the two and produced a big bundle of tickets on the gelding after the race.

AT LT about at 10. At the post there was| considerable flddling about before Fer- guson finally sent the trio away. Mar- tin hustled Mainstay out in the lead and when challenged at the head of - the stretch by Thorpe on Caspar, ran the colt nearly to the outside fence. During this piece of circus work Tu- berville saved much ground with the black horse by making a short turn. ‘With Caspar turned upside down Mar- tin now turned his attention to Tuber- ville. Putting on the ‘“reverse Eng- lish” he tried hard to give Doc the run to the inner rail, but that rider proved as good at the game as “Skeets’” and in ashard drive won by a neck. Af- ter being interfered with, the favorite fell back, finishing lengths behind. Con- sidering the condition of the track. which was heavy and lumpy, the time of the winner, 1:24%%, was excellent. Four heavily played favorites were | and won hands down. waited on Harry Thoburn until well | into the stretch, where he moved up Souffle was a distant third, badly beaten. Jones made a bad mess of it at the post with News Gatherer, never being a factor. If the stable backed Good Friend to win the trainer should see a veterin- ary. The fllly receded in the betting from 3 to 2 to 2% to 1 and couldn’t beat herself. Lo Lo led the bunch to the paddock where Castake got up and won by a grin. the attic floor, taking the show.

The contest of Mrs. Mitchell to the ap- | plication of the heirs of the estate of Martin Kedon for a distribution of the estate left by the decedent was again | | opened before Judge Coffey yesterday. | Mrs. Mitchell, who claims to have en- tered Into a contract marriage with Ke- i don some time Prlor to his death, objects | to the distribution of the estate untii the | | | rights of her son, who she alleges is the child of Kedon have been established ;'fi' the court and some m. | Mrs. Mitchell—or Kedon—was on the | stand yesterday, and told of the relations | with her alleged last husband.

They Will Be Elected at Large as Under the Present System Dr. Anderson Advocated a Plan to| Have Them Elected From the - Districts. The Board of Freeholders spent sev- eral hours last night discussing the proposed new legislative department of the municipality. The lub-commltte.e appointed to draft a code of laws to govern the legislative body reported in favor of a Board of Supervisors con- sisting of elghteen members, who shall be elected at large and who shall hold office for two years, with the excep- tion that the first board under the| charter, if it is adopted, shall so divide | itself by lot that nine members shall 80 out at the expiration of the first year and the other nine members at the expiration of the second year, and that thereafter nine members shall be elected annually to the board. Dr. Anderson offered as a substitute for the measure a section providing| that the members of the Board of Su- | pervisors shall be nominated at large, | but elected by districts. He also de- | sired to have a clause inserted in the charter providing that upon the filing | of a petition signed by twenty per cent | of the voters of a district the Election Commissioners should call a special | election in that district. | Dr. Anderson argued that if the Su- pervisors were elected from districts the voters would be able to better judge of the qualifications of the can- didates. He believed that the city should be redistricted Into eighteen wards, the same as Assembly districts. Then in the event of a Supervisor proving unfaithful to his trust 20 per cent of the voters could compel the Election Commissioners to call a spe- cial election to secure his removal. The Supervisor whose removal was sought would be allowed, however, to have his name on the ticket, and in the event of receiving a majority of the votes cast he would be allowed to re- main in office, but if defeated his suc- cessor would at once take his seat and complete the unexpired term. The suggestion of Dr. Anderson brought about a lengthy debate. Ex-Mayor Ellert, P. H. McCarthy, H. N. Clement and Joseph Comte were opposed to the district system, as they believed that no good would accrue | from it. They were of the opinion that | the Supervisors should be elected by | general ticket, as at present, and the majority of the Freeholders were in | like frame of mind, for Dr. Anderson’s | substitute was defeated and the sec- tion suggested by the committee adopt- | ed. The Freeholders next decided that no | person shall be eligible to the office of | Supervisor unless he has been for at least five years continuously a quali- fied elector of the city and county. The Freeholders will meet again to- morrow night to decide on the powers of the Supervisors. HOTEL ARRIVALS. PALACE HOTEL.
