PRt SO At Union Park, with the gregt number | of hares used and kept on handfor the | coursing events, It frequently happens | that some of the jacks beat the dogs to | the escapes and thereby gain a respite un- | til the next meeting. Between stakes the | Merced pests are turned loose in the big ! field for exercise and to become accus- tomed to the escape holes. i In the rundown of the big open stake | yesterday two of the hares which were called into play, judging from their dis- play of cunning and cleverness, had seen | service in many events and knew how to | use their experience to advantage. Hon- | esty and Echo were slipped to a long ' ch slowed a bit and seeing His | pursuers making rapid strides toward him pread itself flat on the ground and al- lowed them to go by him. The hare was | socn up and after following the unsight- | ed dogs a short distance made a bolt for | the escape unmolested. Another hare in the lead of Kanaka and Lavender, after making a circult of the | field and overlooking the natural escape, cleared the fence at the slipper's stand | by a_ well executed jump and left the hounds bewildered. The finals to-day should be productive of Wedgewood and Floodgate are the best at the top of the card, with the former as the choice. To ;l»lck Palo Alto, Chicago Boy and Royal Union on the lower half with Rellly's dog favorite looks like good figuring. For the final | Wedgewood to beat Unijon is in favor gen- | erally.

CALIFORNIANS VICTORS IN ‘ SIX-DAY BICYCLE RACE NEW YORK, Dec. 15.—Before nearly | 20,000 people, jammed to every available i corner of the great Madison Square Gar- den, Harry Elkes of Glens Falls, N. Y., and Floyd McFarland of San Jose, the American team, won the six day inter- national bicycle race by a wheel's length from Burns Pierce of Boston and Archie McEachern of Toronto, the Canadian team. Caesar Simar of Paris and Jean Gougoltz of Monte Carlo, the French team, was third, a lap away. The dis- tance covered by the winners was 262 miles. and seven laps, this being 104 miles and seven laps behind the record made by Miller and Waller last year. Karl Kaser of Berlin and Fritz Ryser of Berlin, the German team, were given fourth place with 25% miles and four laps to their credit, they having retired from the track about two hours before the close of the race, being satisfied that they could not possibly cover the forty-two miles and three laps that lay beiween | them and the leaders. Michael Frederick of Paris and Jean Fisher of Paris took fifth place with 2532 miles. They drew out_at 7 o'clock to-night. Frank Waller of Boston and W. C. Stinson of Boston gave up just before 3 o'clock this morn- lodging-house at 407 Mason street, where the despondent motorman took his life. The gas was turned on and two letters written by Kelly lay on the bureau. The first letter was addressed to his wife, who is living in San Jose. It is as follows: San Francisco. the woman 1 loved. first to shoot out. He set a terrific pace. McFarland was but a wheel's length be. hind the Frenchman, aad almost scraping his rear wheel was Pierce. In this posi- | tion the three kept a hurricané pace for | the whole of the last mile. When the gong sounded at the end of the eighth lap Pierce made a desperate effort to spurt | ahead of McFarland. He wasdunsuccess- | ful, though he closed up the gap slightly. Gougoltz was gradvally being overhauled inch by inch. On the iast lap MeFarland crossed ahead, with Pierce after him, and the two of them passed over the tape in that order, the Frenchman but a fraction of a second behind in the sorint, bnt a | lap behind fn the race. { here was no holding the great crowd and the Ren le howled themselves hoarse during the final sprint, jumping to their feet, waving hats, coats—everything the men could get their hands on—while the women frantically whirled their handker- chiefs. The three men continued riding | around the ring amid the greafest ex- | citement. Elkes and McFarland get $1500 in cash and the champlonship of the world for six-day team racing. | Pierce and McEachern get $1000: Simar and Gougoltz, $800; Kaser and Ryser, $500; Fisher and Frederick, $30: Waller and Stinson, $250; Babcock and Aaronson, $150 in all, $4500.

O. V.
