OLINTHUS WAS MUCH THE BEST Capturgel the Schreiber Stake Handily Ridden by H. Shields. Morinel Gave Away Weight and Won Like a Real Good One. The Rubicon Party Made a Cleanup. Three Favoriteg Met With Defeat. While Olinthus may never become as | shining a light on the turf as his illustri- ous brother Diggs, he is about the best of the two-year-olds traveling around in these parts. Yesterday the big chestnut came out first best in a five furlong scrimmage at Inglesiue, called the Schre_i- ber stake, worth $700 to tne winner. It is termed serimmaege from the fact that all sorts of chopp the different jockeys, and with a timid pilot on his back Olinthus would have bé bamboozled out of the prize. Henry Shields took a chance, and his daring was rewarded with success. Olinthus ruled a 4 to 5 choice in the betting, and soon after the start was blocked by Mossbrae and Obsidian. On entering the stretch Shields, astride the favorite, saw an open- ing next the rail and started through. He managed to evade Thorpe on Excursion after squeezing his way out of an un- pleasant predicament, beating the latter colt finally by over a length in 1:02%, and this with 123 pounds on his back. Ob- sidian ran better than usual, finishing third. Favorites throughout down to defeat, ber these days. an and tremely g00C Although conceding all kinds of weight to every one of the other entries in the mile selling affair, .orinel was a big fa- Yorite in the betting, and showed what a really good filly she was by running around her field when the bend for home was reached, and leading Thelma out with something to spare, tilting the dis- tance off in 1:41 flat. San Marco, second choice, was third. Ed Corrigan's chestnut colt Hooker looked an “airtight” for the open ing mile run for maidens, but Clawson brilliant piece of buffoonery saw him led out I Charley Macklin up. The brown colt San Mateo was made performed- indifferently the afternoon, three going about the average num- The attendance showed the betting was ex- favorite for the six furlong sprint follow- | ing, but was headed from the start and handily beaten by Miss Lynah, the 3 to 1 second cholce. Imp. Mistral finished in the show. The mile and a quarter over hurdles proved a gift ior the favorite, Our CI mate, piloted by Doane. He outfooted and outjumped his fleld, winning in a gal- lop from George Palmer. In the final mile purse run Rubicon was ofl out of the can, and at odds of 16 to 5 I time the barrier was released, finishing with lots left over two lengths before Her- nardillo. Won't Dance, the favorite, ran like an invalid hind imp. Tripping. - TRACK NOTES. T Diggs of Woodland, who bred Olin- us, was at the track yesterday and viewed with much pleasure the colt's clever victory. Charley Fink, owner of Newsgatherer and Bonita, will leave for Chicago on Saturday next if a car can be obtained. Louls Ezell will ship some of his horses at the same time. ain Rees, the affable Memphis turf offi- G. g old acquaintanceship. The captain this section of the country, and much regret was expressed at his absence from the stand during the long meeting about drawing to a close. Lonnie Clayton, the crack colored rider, terday signed a contract to ride for E. gan the coming season. Many bettors were a trifle shy about placing their coin on Our Climate with Doane in the saddle, and the price against Honig's jumper went back in the betting. Some years ago Doane was one of the best known riders in the East and piloted any number of winners while under contract with Mike Daly. Like res- orri- | many another rider he overlooked the fact that some day he would be too heavy to ride on the flat, and the dollars went as fast as they came. Henry Shields was suspended for the balance riding was indulged in by | Major the 9 to 1 chance Applejack, wxlh‘ ded the other ihree entries from the | landing in last place, be- | kept busy all day at the track re- | is | popular with all classes of horsemen in | of the week after his win on Olinthus. While Henry was endeavoring to get through next the rall, Clawson, on Mossbrae, tried to block him and he struck the latter with his whip. To_most onlookers the act looked. justifiable. Now that Captain Rees is again in Califor- nia the flends of Jockey Tommy Butler will endeavor to have that official look with favor on Tommy’s relnstatement. The latter was suspended for a ride on one or two ver— bad “skates,”” and when the fact is taken into consideration that good riders have put up some very hazy rides on stake horses, it does look as_though Butler had been severely punished. A wild plunger on Millbrae cut the colt’s odds from 30 down to 20 to 1. W. J. Splers traded his old mare Lizetta with John Mackey for the colt, and after the race said that some weeks ago’ the son of Midlothian showed him some very fair work. Lately he seemed to train off, and in the race run disappointingly. Hohenlohe is a very bad sample of a race horse, it apparently being impossible to_ get him In poor enough company to win. Yes- terday he struggled along in fifth place and at_the wire moved up & pe. W. J. Jennings did not think Miss Lynah good enough to win and she went to the post at odds of 3 to 1. She was better than for some time past. Old Tim Murphy Is playing in hard luck trying to win a purse. He was cut down and finished last in the second race. McKenna was questioned about his ride on Gov. Budd, and told the judges that he nearly lost a leg by being slammed up against the fence on the back stretch. Bernardillo should be sold to some circus, for he is too useful an animal to be chasing around on race tracks for cheap $400 purses. With short training he should be able to turn somersaults through terra cotta sewer piping, balance pool tickets on his nose and describe flip-flaps and pirouettes on the camel's back. On April 15, in a six furlong run, he was beaten, according to the form book, over fifty | six lengths by the winner, Rubicon. On that | occasion his odds receded’ from § to 20 to 1. | In the last race yesterday, this same horse was beaten but two and a half lengths by Ru- bicon, the mile being covered in 1:41%. This is form. | Before the last event was decided, 1t was [ hinted that Won't Dance had a suspicious leg, and her showing in the race would indicate that the boller inspectors should examine her whole underpinning. Thorpe kave an excellent exhibition of nurs- ing on the back of Imp. Tripping, and it his nerve and dexterity could be applied in like | direction with billlard balls, the scores of | Schaefer and Ives would soon be turned toward the wall. Tom McGowan pitched a hot one into the | ring when the Rublcon race came along. The | betting was as gdod as 4% to 1, and several bank rolls suffered from contraction when the | tickets were cashe: st S | TO-DAY'S ENTRIES.

The Fast Hound and Prize-Winner Attacked by a Cat. The Ingleside and Union Coursing parks are making very extensive preparations for their respective Mayday meetings. The tempting prizes that are offered to leashmen should induce the owners of fast greyhounds in all parts of the State | to enter thelr charges. The best-two-in-three championship stake, which will be run off at Ingleside, will test the staying qualities of the com- peting dogs, and especially will this be the case if the hares are in a running mood. At the Unlon Park great interest will be centered in the race between Conne- mara and For Freedom—that is in case | Mr. Deane, the owner of the local dog, shall conclude to enter “Con’ for the big meeting. The leashmen are about di vided in opinion as to which is the better | dog, and that question can be solved only when the two great fliers meet in i the slips.

The grand dog was taking a little constitutional on one of the roads leading to the Ocean Beach, when he was attacked by an in- furiated cat. The feline sank its claws deep into the flesh of the hound, but the owner of the dog quickly ap- plied to the wounds such remedies as are used to offset blood-poisoning, and under careful treatment the hound is now doin, nicelv, although the injured part ha swollen considerably, causing Mr. Deane much anxiety. It is hoped, however, that Connemara will be in condition to give a good account of himself on Mayday.

The Heavyweia Champion of Mon- tana Finds Very Few Backers in This City. Betting on the Mexican Pete and Jeff- ries fight Is very slow, and there is very little hope that it will improve until the men enter the ring. The sporting people look upon Pete as belng nice game for the big, heavy hitting man from Oakland, and although they offer $10 on Jeffries they cannot find bet- ter than $3 against it in any of the pool rooms. In the mutuels some money is being played at Crowley & Raggett's that Jeffries will put the champion of Montana to sleep inside of five rounds, but the wise ones are very liable to go Wrong in their calculations, as Pete is quite a sprinter and will bother Jeffries to no small extent in running and duck- ing. It will not surprise many judges of pugilism to hear that Pete lasted fifteen rounds in front of his big opponent. The Olympic Club is arranging for a 20-round contest between Jack Daly and Kid'" Lavigne, but up to date neither of the lightweights has consented to fight under its auspices, “Bull” McCarth; the Eastern light- weight pugilist, has been matched to fight Griffo by the Sacramento Athletic Club.

DEMOCRATS SEEK MARMONY TN VAIN District Club Nominations-Are the Cause of Numerous Local Rows. Tha Police Called In to Avert Hostili~ ties In the Thirty-Second Assembly District. Last night was the time fixed for the nomination by each of the recently or- ganized Democratic district clubs of the general committee. The election is to occur next Monday, at which time | twenty-five of the nominees of each club will be selected as delegates. The proceedings last night demon- strated the fact that all is not harmo- nious in some of the districts, in spite of the efforts of Major Harney to have everything done according to pro- gramme. Local factions took ad- vantage of the opportunity to fight for private grievances, a condition that in some of the districts led to entangle- ments so grave that no nominations were made and none are likely to be made unless the bosses lay a heavy hand on the combatants. In the Thirty-second Assembly Dis- trict there was a row that resulted in a call for the police. Under ‘the pro= tection of two stalwart coppers the secretary was enabled to reach the headquarters of the campaign commit- tee with the returns of the meeting. It appears that one of the disturbing fac- tors was Frank Lester, an astute poli- tician, who assumes the right to direct the affairs of his district in such mat- ters as require the exercise of that par- ticular brand of political diplomacy that is his by right of discovery. As those who are so blind as not to be able to see and appreciate his merit are set- ting on foot a very vigorous protest it is not unlikely that he may feel the heavy hand in the near future. The way of the aspiring politician is indeed a hard onc Factional fights marred the harmony of the evenin, proceedings in the| Forty-first, Forty-seventh, Twenty- | eighth and Fortieth Assembly Districts and it will require the work of several | days to straighten out the local tangles. | As a rule, however, the slate prepared | in advance went through with a rush that spoke well for the discipline of the Rainey-Harney followers. B DICK WILLIAMS' TRIAL. A Witness Swears That He Paid Him One Hundred Dollars as a Brib> to Land a Man. ‘Wong Kew Kim occupied the stand dur- ing the whole of vesterday in the trial of Richard 8. Willlams, ex-interpreter for the Chinese Bureau, charged with extort- ing money from Chinese immigrants on the pretense that his assistance was nec- essary In order to obtain for them permis- sion to land In this country. Kim's testi- mony was that he had paid Wiillams $100 for landing Wong Ling L‘hn{l. Most of the time was taken up with the cross-ex- amination by Attorney Collins, who, how- ever, fafled to make any material breach in the testimony of the witness. The trial will be resumed this morning and will probably consume a week's time. —_———— For the Omaha Exposition. Some time ago the Hon. G. B. Brackett, pomologist of the Department of Agri- culture, Washington, D. C., wrote to J. A. Filcher, manager of the State Board of Trade, asking the latter to collect as large a variety of California fruits as pos- sible for the Omah# Exposition. This he wants for the governmental display at the fair, as distinctive from any State exhibit. Mr. Filcher went to work and he has met with more than fair success. Producers and jobbers from all parts of the State have offered him as much of the finest fruits as he will care to handle. Mr. Brackett sent out a large quantity of franked boxes, so that the shipment of the fruit would not cost anything. but the most of the contributors desire to have their exhibits sent to the fair in the original packages. The heaviest contrib- utors are from Fresno, Santa Clara and this city. : —_———— Commission Broker’s Failure. The recent changes in the prices of ce- reals has caused anbther grain broker to 80 to the wall. Aaron A. Adler of 212 Sansome street was obliged to close his doors vesterday, but it is believed that his failure is not very extensive and that it will involve no one else. = Adler has been doing a commission business, hand- ling grain prlnclnau‘y. for the past thirty Jears. While not giving any reasons for Is failure he says that he expects to be all right again before long. ———— Dr. Rappin Laid at Rest. The funeral of the late Dr. Gabriel F. Rappin was held yesterday afternoon from his residence. 1608 Stockton street, where he had lived and practiced medi- cine for the past ._.rty years. Rev. Oliver C. Miller officiated, an.. a large number of friends and acquaintances gathered to witness the last sad rites. The deceased was admired for his charitable actions and kindly dispos..ion. Grant Held to Answer. Charles Grant, the gas inspecting burg- lar, was yesterday held to answer by Judge Low before the Superior Court in ’moo bonds for stealing a lot of jewelry rom the residence of Mrs. Amelia Hecht, 1201 Van Ness avenue, on March 2. When he was asked if he had anything to say, he curtly answered “no.” STOPPED THE PERFORMANCE Ferris Hartman the Recipient of an Ovation at the Tivoli. Tommy Leary Spies His Old Com- panion Seated in a& Eox. For a full five minutes the performance of “Sinbad” at the Tivoli was interrupted by ecstatic applause and cheering on the part of the audience for a speech by Fer- ris Hartman. Accompanied by George Bowles, Ferris and his sister occupied the lower right proscenium box. As soon as | they took their seats the Tivoll company was in a flutter from Tommy Leary down to the latest acquisition in the chorus, and Hartman was the cynosure not only | of the optics of the company, but the audience as well. All went smoothly until the sextet, with | murder oozing out of every pore, came to | the front for one of its popular songs. When Bob Mitchell had finished his verse, | Leary began to use the sotto voce. He | had saluted Ferris on his entrance to the | box, and now advanced a step on this by calling out: “Hello, Teddy.” The audience | heard it a gentle hand-clapping set | in. Swelling and growing each instant, a wave of applause swept over the house that made it impossible for Leary to con-« tinue his song. Hartman bowed his ac- knowledgments, but the audience was not satistied. By a subterfuge, Leary obtained comparative quiet and then sang his song, of which Hartman was the burden. There was no restraining the outburst that followed. After it had spent its fury Ferris, acceding to the continued importunities of the audience, graceful surrendered. He leaped over the railing that separates the box from the stage and was escorted to the center of the boards by the gentle, guiding hand ol_dCurne Roma. This is what Ferris said: “Ladies and gentlemen, I am much moved and I don’t want to stop the per- formance. 1 am enjoying it immensely, and as you are also, the best thing is to have it go on.” Then George Lask lost his smile in the wings, blew his whistle and the perform- ance recommenced, just as Ferris recov- ered his equanimity and his broad facial ornament.
