Three ‘“good things" through with a rush—Osculation, toro and Rey del Tierra. Ventoro's name was incorrectly spelled last night and all bets on him were called off in con- sequ As those {n “on the know" got their money on at 8 to 1, and had to take from 1 to 2 to even money to-day, there no joy in the souls of those that cut the watermelon.

Ventoro, a new one from Rancho del Paso, was made alto?2f rite, and Magdalenas was next in demand at 2% to L Gold Fin and Leo Vertner were at 4 to 1, Cleodora 7 and The Miller 10 to 1. Ventoro got away in the lead and on the fly, and though Magdalenas got up to him nearing tne three-quarter mark, Ventoro drew away again with slight urging and won easily at the end by three lengths, Magdalenas second, as far from The Miller. Leo Vert- ner, who had run prominently for over three furlongs, was fourth. Time, 1:10. Moringa was a 1 to 7 favorite for the seven and a_half furlong selling race. After a good start had isen made and Stoic had led for about three-sixteenths of a mile Moringa took command, and was not thereafter headed, though Ocktu- ruck got up when they had gone a little over a quarter of a mile. In the home- stretch Ockturuck tired and Moringa won with ease by ten lengths. Roulette Wheel was second easily, two lengths Ockturuck. Time, 1:39—a slow race. For the last race, seven and a half furlongs, Harrg Thoburn was a 7 to 10 favorite, Rey del Tierra at evens, Lomo 4 to 1 and Nonchalance 12 to 1. To a fair start Lomo went into the lead and held it past the quarter by two lengths, past the half by one length. Thoburn, who had been lying second, passed into the lead before the three-quarter pole had been reached, but Rey %el Tierra, whose jockey had been at the bat from the quarter pole, came fast on the outside and won handily at the finish by three lengths, Thoburn beat Lomo a neck in a hard flavl: and through good riding.

Major Miley said the two generals were the best of friends, and that there was no cause for this agitation in connec- tion with them.

Noonan, 1017-1023 Mission, GENERAL SHAFTER |THE HARES WERE GAME AND FAST They Know the Escapes and Win Out Easily. SOME FAVORITES THAT LOST MUCH MONEY ON FOR FREEDOM AND ROSETTE. The Great Championship Stakes Will Be Run To-Day at Ingleside and Union Parks—A Fine Card. The selling stake—the run down of which was decided yesterday at Union Coursing Park—resulted in many surprises for those who pretended to know a good thing in the coursing field. The shortenders had a gala day and the most pleased men of the large gathering that was present were the soldier boys, who played the short end of each course. The first upset of the day was when the much fancied Magic was bowled over by the little-thought-of Bendigo. Magic sold at $5, while Bendigo found but few takers at $1. Maglic led for quite a dis- tance, but the hare was a traveler, and when near the escape Bendigo forged ahead and scored a go-by just as Bunn passed out of sight. The judge declare the course a “no go,” but in the run off Bendigo led to the hare, took first turn and then it was give and take until Ben- digo killed, winning the course. The second upset to the talent occurred when Sportsman, on the $5 end, was sent to his kennel by White Tip, who had few supporters at §1 a ticket. White Tip ran a fairly good course. Then came the defeat of the Denver dog, Bryan, by Sylvanite. Bonfire, an- other FEastern dog, was played heavily to win, because of some alleged great erformance he was credited with hav. ng made, but he proved himself to be the worst kind of l‘ll duffer, and was easily beaten by Burlington. Goldenyhagle zdefen(ed the favorite Kathleen handily. This was a 5 to 1 shot. Arapahoe disposed of Lissak, a 2 to 1 favorite. The most amusing featurg of the day's sport was the three ““no go’ courses between the duffers Jimmie Hope and Defender. Nelther dog was able to exercise any of the hares they met, but the judge finally decided in favor of De- fender on the ground of ‘‘speed”” shown to the hare. Peaceful Glen, who sold at $1 as against $4 on Eclipse, disposed of the favorite in 2 good long run to the lower escape. The soldfer boys maue quite a ‘‘raise” on this course. uite a number of ‘no goes” resulted in the run down. The results were: Belling stake, the run down—Bendalong beat Ruth ashmore; Babe Murphy beat Lucerne; Bendigo beat Magic: Van Knapp beat Wild: flower; White Tip beat Sportsman: Sylvanite beat Bryan; Revenge beat White Chief; Little Doubt beat’ Rellable; Burlington beat Bonfire; Morning Glory beat Bky Queen; Rapld beat Black Pete; Golden Eagle beat Kathleen; Mis- sion Boy beat Jimmie Cork: Jersey Lily beat Tocaloma; Arapahoe beat Lissak; Seldom beat Alameda; Decorator beat Rosaleen; Defender beat Jimmy Hope; The Gossoon beat Star Pointer; White Lily beat Santa Bella; Peaceful Glen bept Eclipse; Vigilant beat Gallant Foe; Glit Edge beat Skylark; Obadiah beat Dr. Nor- man. This stake will be finished to-day, as will also th: champlon stake, which will be the great and much looked for event of the afternoon. The winner of the selling stake looks like either Gilt Edge or Seldom. e T NOVATO S A STAKE. A Number of Promising Young Sap- lings Ran Their First Course at Ingleside Yesterday. Yesterday was the hares' day at the Ingleside Coursing Park, as they seemed to have charmed lives. In the sapling stake In the first nine courses only one hare was killed, the others reaching the escape safely, and an official remarked joculary, “That this was only a ‘warm up’ for the hares and that the sharp sprint they made yesterday would only make them the more fit for the run to-day.” The sport yesterday was excellent, and as the atmosphere was clear from fog the spectators were enabled to watch every course to its finish. The betting public was happy yester- day, as the day was full of surprises, in several instances long shots winning, the most notable being Master Mat at 7 to 1, defeating Thad Stevens after the latter dog had led up for a considerable dis- tance. Miss Dividends also aroused a cheer from the short-enders, as the white flag was raised announcing that theclever little bitch had defeated the hot favorite Matchless at the price of 3 to 1. Among the other short-enders that earned their followers' dinner money were Miss Phoebe Torraine and Little Dorrzit. Kill Boy also defeated Bell of Moscow at 8 to i, but few had tickets to cash on the dog, as the Belle of Moscow was considered a moral cinch. In the sapling stake the youngsters made an exceptionally (fi:)‘o showlni Bleven Spot, Novato and Chief of Hill ail running well. Olympus was selected by ahe wise ones to win the stal.e but the og was unlucky, being beaten in a ghort course in the second round by Novato, who made a drive and pick up. The stake was finally won bg ovato, the runner up being E]even pot, the last course being an easy thlnfl for him, as Eleven Spot was considerably weakened by hav- ing earlier in the day to run a couple of very long and severe courses.

Correct broke badly at a critical point of the race, finally finishing second. The second heat was won by Correct by four lengths, pulling up. It was any- body’s race up to the last quarter, when Correct came on and won, Fanadma tir- ing badly in the stretch. orrect was played to win the thira heat as though there was nothing else to it. He led a couple of lengths at the guarter, but down the backstretch was lapped by Fanadma. They went to the half like a double team. In the home- stretch the leaders were joined by Maud Newman and Azabia. The result was in doubt to the judging post, where Correct just won out. The judges gave the heat to Maud Newman, the second horse, dis- qualifying Correct for cutting her off: The final looked a certainty for Correct. He opened at 1 to 3, Newman 2 to 1, and Fanadma 5 to 2. Soon after the start Correct broke, and the race seemed to be between Fanadma and Maud Newman. Once Correct settled down to his stride and he closed the gap rapidly, but his pilot commenced to drive too late. He was finally beaten half a length by Maud Newman, Fanadma third. The summary of the races folows: FIRST RACEH. Mile heat, best two in three. T0 PRESERVE CALIFORNIA'S FOREST LANDS U. S.-Receiver Carter Gives His Views. ADVERTISEMENTS. NTER.

But the majority of the residents, and especially the fruit- growers and ranchers, would welcome a law compelling the Mountain Mining Company to consume its sulphurous fumes, which at present are devastating the whole countryside, “My land district,” said Mr. Carter, ‘‘covers the whole of Shasta County, as well as portions of Siskiyou, Trinity, Mo- doc, Lassen and Tehama, 1t includes most o —2:28%.

With modern ap- liances and the milling machinery now El use the lumber is cleared off at a terri- fic rate. Besides, there is a great amount of waste. Only the best is taken and the worst is left behind. 1 met a lumberman trom the East the other day, and he was simply astounded at the way our forests are being taken up. In the Eastern States they use every particle of wood for one urpose or another. Here they only take fhe best of the tree, the lower portion, and leave the rest to rot on the ground.' Mr. Carter thinks that much good might be accomplished if the Federal and State governments could agree upon a common ground of action. ““The establish- ment of an efficient fire patrol,” he re- arks, ‘“would in itselt do a great deal g} good. It is already an indictable of- fense to start a forest fire, but owing to the lack of supervision, convictions can- not be secured. Then the State might es- tablish nurseries on some of the vacant land it owns, where experiments could be made with all kinds of exotic trees to as- certain which were most suitable for prui)- agation in this climate. Also steps could be taken to check waste, and to prevent the destruction of trees under a certain size. Land which has already been dev- astated could be replanted with the kind of timber most suitable to the locality, and where the young pines are coming up naturally they should be thinned out, so PUT THE MONEY IN BANK, Or Leave It With Any Reputable Business Man In San Francisco Untll You Are Cured—A Falr Offer to Afflicted Men.
