I. 2. 8 % P A Becker, SAN FRANCISCO “AUTOMOBILIOUS” AS THEY PROCEEDED ALONG THE LINE OF STEAM AND SPUTTER, IN VARIOUS KINDS OF SELF-PROPELLED CARRIAGES, AND A FEW OF THE FUNNY THINGS THAT HOUGH tha horse may not go, the horseless vehicle is here to steam, puff and sputter. At least that is the verdict of all who took par esterday in the successful run of the “automobilious” in the Golden Gate Park. Before 10 a. m. people began to gather at the vendezvous, the corner of Golden Gate and Van Ness avenues, curious to see the seclf-propelled car- riages in line. The most remarkable vehicles of all were two motorcycies, that went whirl- ing up and down the avenue, looking de- cidedly cumbrous and making a good deal of noise, but being well controlled by their riders. It was nearly 11 before a start was made, and by that time about fifteen automoblles, chienv of the steam- vehicles proceeded in single file along Golden Gate avenus out to the panhandle, | where a halt was made. From the pan- | handle some of the chauffeurs returned to Van Ness nvenue groceedlng thence | to Fort Mason, ard street, and | along the boulev: flrd to the Presidio, where | they were rejoined at the parade ground by their companions who had gone down McAllister street, up Central avenue and into the military reser\'auon. The auto- | mobiles then went cown to Fort Point, up again and along un Presidio Helghts. One vehicle met witn an accident and was unable to proceed, and some of the others found it necessary to stop for sught adjustments of the machinery. From the military reservation the chauf- feurs made their way by various routes to _their starting points. During the run a few horses gazed with some alarm at the strange vehicles which | W, ——— signs of evident dissatisfaction. The most vollent protests wera made by some of the cavalry horses in the Presidio, but no serfous difficuity occurred.

George James has a slight lead over | Willlam Cartwright for the silver trophy offered by Messrs. Melrose and Ramsdell to go to the winner of a serfes of hand- ball games between these two experts. James yesterday defeated Cartwright in their initial game, and if he wins on| Wednesday evening the cup will be his property. | Quite a large number of clubmen watched the match game yesterday. Cartwright had won the handball tourna- ment held a few weeks ago, and James succeeded in winning second place. An ex- citing game was_expected, and the spec- tators were not disappointed. James won the first rubber by a score of 21—7. James “killed” at every opportunity and sent a hot serve to his opponent. In the second game Cartwright picked up. He sent out a difficuit toss and had 17 points to Jameg’ 7 before much time had elapsed. James then steadied down and lplnyed an up-hill game and soon overbauled his opponent. When the score was up-sticks the crowd grew enthusiastic. Cartwright made an- other before being put out, and then his rival went in and by a low serve won the match. Score 21—18. The players 1n the soft ball tournament then took the stage and played some ex- citing games. Jim Powers (40) defeated Rausch (40) by a score of 40-—8. Clough (40)2ldel'ea!ed llawsen (40) by a score of Bogan (40) won from Bartlett (scratch) by a score of 40—38. This was the best game of the afternoon. Bogan plaved a Brifliant game and outplayed "his op- ponent. Bartlett's lack of condition and | the handicap was too much for him. Tom Magee was to have played Al Hoffmann, but failed to materfalize. ~His absence was a disappointment to the crowd, as an lntereminil game was looked for. ' There are now three men left in the first class. | Bogan, Hoffmann and Powers will con-| test for honors. In the second class the contest is also | narrowing down to_ the finals. To-night Louis Levy (scratch) will play George Birdsall (40); Jerry Johnson (scratch) will play Melrose (scratch), and McLeod | (scratch) will play Lester Hammersmith Al Hampton, single-handed, defeated Russ and Butz )yesle;day in the r¢ la- tion court, and then repeated the tricl gefeating Butz and Gleason.
