24 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, MAY 5, 1901. TALENT IS BUFFETED ABOUT AT OAKLAND Outsiders, Well Backed, Took Nearly Every- thing in Sight—-Headwater and The Pride on Their Bad Behavior--Ruiz in Form BY F. E MULHOLLAND. CARD that bore no traces of rust or moss, added to a day made pur- posely for racing, drew a large attendance to Oakland track yes- terday. The talent missed calling the turn on five out of six attempts, and & “rube” didn’t have a chance to last one sitting out. While those supposed to be well educated weighed in several dollars light when the game was over, the mati- nee bettors landed with such precision that the bookies did not salt away much. Such outsiders of questionable repute as Maresa, Jim McCleevy, Jarretierre d'Or and Spike did stunts that were not ex- pected of them. For the favorites Head- Weter was the only one to rap out a base hit. In the way of plloting winners Ruiz carried off the honors with three, while from the blackberry patch Bassinger and Alexander ecach came home with onc, “Lorgshot” Conley being absolutely com- pelled to make an absentee of himself. Something out of the ordinary was ex- pected when the six and a half furiong fprint, with Headwater, Articulate, The Pride and Sly was called. Articulate was scratched, which made little difference the betting. The Pride, ridden by Conley, went to the post favorite, but his unruly actions caused the odds to recede 1o § 1o b, seating Headwater in the chalir. The latter also acted very badly, necessi- tating the removal of his blinkers and the temporary abolishment of the barrier. Finully Jake Holtman got a break and let the trio go. First away, Headwater, nicely rated by Ruiz, was never headed, winning under reefed sails from Sly. Con- Jey, on The Pride, was & busy man from the kick-off, but was unable to score a touch down "The opening sketch, a five-furlong dash, witnessed the downfall of the heroine, Alzura.

The Warspite is expected to reach port to-night or to- morrow morning, and as it is the first visit to an American port that Admiral Bickford will have made since he was elevated to the command of the Pacific squadron of the British navy, the people of San Diego and Coronado have ar- ranged for a two days’ welcome to both the officers and crew of the battleship. Since the carpival part of the celebra- tlon was to take place on the water it was deemed proper that the queen of the CHOSEN TO WAVE THE REGAL WAND AT SAN DIEGO'S WATER CARNIVAL. o carnival should be selected from 180 mem- bers of the girl's rowing clubs of this city. The selection was to be by ballot in accordance with the usual custom and the money collected was to be spent in decorating the launch, which was to be styled “the Queen's barge.” This seemed easy of consummation, but the girls themselves objected. They sald that the people could foster as much rivairy as they pleased between the crews, the more the merrier, but that they wanted no rivalry between the members cf the same crew. Thus it was that the committee decided to have the voting be- tween the crews, and the Olymplas won, with 7420 votes to 5480 for the La Sirenas, their nearest rivals. The Olympias are made up of the fol- lowing named members: Miss Kate Hen- ry (captain), and Misses Gould, L. Lind- ley, Lewis, Morrell, Nash, Smith, Wat- PALO ALTO S CKED TO W Patrons of the game were given a good coursing card yesterday at Union Park, the three stakes which were partly run off resulting in good trials. From the form players' point of view the stake was nof a success financlally, for on seventeen occasions the hounds which were held at top prices failed to make good. In the two sapling events, however, the pikers were the hard luck story-tellers, short-end candidates being denied even a single victory. The hares were in good condition, which means that getting the flag In. to-day’s finals will be preceded by some good run- ning. Paio Alto 1s a likely candidate for stake honors. His work in the run-down showed that he is in fine trim. The champion’s great fault, and ofttimes an expensive one for his backers, is hesitation. He ais- played none of this in his, course vester- day, but, on the contrary, exhibited great dash and viciousness in his kill. Sisquoc will meet Luxor in the second round and the chances are in his favor. Considering his performances he looks to have a hold on second place and ready for an argument with Geary's dog for tcp honors. _Wedgewood, Harlean Gladys and Sir Pasha are next in favor. The short ends: Belle Rocket beat War Eagle, Mollie R beat Lovina at 10 to 1; Boney Boy_ beat Master Davenport at 5 to 1: The Chief beat Forest Queen, Twi- light Jr. beat Master Davenport, Rocker beat Rollicking Airs In a bye; Roxana beat E. G.

The second round winners look to be Santonin, Miss Wilson, Fine Fire, Twi- light Jr., For Glory, Royal Union, St. Ives, Master Rocket, Rural Artist, Fine Form, Mose,* Firm _Fellow, ILiberator, Nareissus, America, Honor Bright, Tapl- oca, First Foot, Flora McDonald, Harlean Gladys, Roman Athlete, Hot Haste, Flery Face, Mollie R, Greenhall, Little Sistcr, Bona TIMide and Ireland. In the first Sapling stake P. Horgan's Peerless and Wild Eclipse will contend for the final and Tame Tralee and Miss Pyee will run off in the second sapling. The first three voungsters are by Wild Tralee, out of Just Eclinsed, and Miss Pyee is by Cavalier, out of Vanity Falr. The day’s results, with Judge John Grace’s official scores, follow: Open stake: First round—C. O.

The picture of the crew shown herewith was taken early this week on the return of the members from a regular exercise row just after they had left their barge, Misses Morrell and Lewls being absent on that particular afternoon. While the committee has made all the arrangements for the reception to the admiral the plans are so flexible that if the Warspite can remain more than the allotted two days the festivities of the occasion _can be extended that much longer. The vessel is expected to-morrow morning or some time during the night. A recuest will be made for as large lib- erty for the men as possible and two sacred band concerts will be given to- morrow morning and afternoon. On Monday afternoon there will be sports on the bay, inciuding sailing and rowing races, in which the English visi- tors will be invited to participate with the boys of the Ranger, the Pinta and of the Mohican, if that vessel gets in. The carnival is planned for that evening, ‘when there will be a parade of {llumin- ated launches and barges and boats passing all of the wharves and crossing the bay to circle about the anchored barge, whence the fireworks will be set off. This dis- play on the water is to be followed by the reception and grand ball at Hotel del Coronado, lasting until the sailing time of the battleship in the early morning. 1f it is found on the arrival of the War- spite that she can remain three days, either the ball or the water carnival will be postponed until the following evening. x PERERERERRERERIAIRIRLRRE EEE XL EEPE LY 8-4; G.

FELD DAY ON " COLLEGE ThAEK Oakland Office San Franelisco Call, 1118 Broadway, May 47 The college field day at St. Mary’s this afternoon was the most successful in the history of the institution. There were large delegations from nearby towns, in- cluding San Francisco, San Rafael, San Jose, Berkeley and Alameda. Nearly 500 spectators gathered to witness the trials of skill between the students.

It happened first and then Ewing won the games. i Over in Oakland yesterday morning K. J. Drennan, the guardian of the Oakland center cemetery, was married to Pauline Jones, which event bestirred the Oakland flelder in a very mild way, for he was at £ his post in the afternoon. playing as nothing had happened. But then t courtship was long and Drennan is a m ter-of-fact young man who seldom makes errors. That was incide: number one. Incl dent the second, accessory before the fac is of another kind. Chief Borchers is miss- ing and, desnite the searching of hired detectives and the hue and cry that Ew- ing has set up, the star twirler of the Oakland team cannot be found. The other day some one saw him with a package of Eastern transporiation cards in his pocket and the Chief said he was going far, far away, to a land where an umpire can be found who knows a ball from a strike. It is a singular coincidence, the baseball men say, that ome of his lady admirers is also not to be found. Ewing will pay a big reward for the return of Borchers, who has already been fined $100 by the Oakland manager for taking leave without permission. Ewing would also like to hand over to Mr. Borchers the $20 85 back salary that is due him. The game yesterday was noteworthy for the trial of two new pitchers, Russell of Oakland and Thomas of Sacramento. Both give promise of development, par- ticularly Thomas. In the eighth inning Russell showed that he was made of stern stuff. Doyle, Stanley and Sheehan were erowding the sacks and the bench was clear of dead ones. The score read 5—3 in favor of Oakland and the clouds hung over the heads of the Dudes. Then Thomas hit to Arrellanes and Doyle was forced out at the plate. McGucken hit to Moore, who crowded out Stanley at the R‘at-, and Lohman doubled the runner at rst B Sacramento at times »layed ragged ball, which was not heiped in the least by the unnecessary and unreasonable exhibitions of recaleitrancy on the part of Hanlon, star kicker, as weil as first baseman of the league.

Ina fierce drive he beat Contestor a head, while the three-year-old All Green was third, a length away. The time, 1:42, was only fair. The biggest winner on the Metropoll- tan handicap at Morris Park to-day was Jesse Lewisohn, a well-known igure about town. In spite of the rumors touching- upon Banastar's con- ditfon and the fact that the bookmak- ers increased odds against the Farondal hcrse, Lewisohn played Mr. Mackay's representative all over the ring. When Lewisohn started to make the circuit of the ring to wager on Banastar the odds were 20 to 1. At post time the best price obtainable was 12 to 1. Lewisohn offered aimost every bookmaker in the ring $100 on Banastar. Nearly every one of the bigger books accepted, believing that Ban- astar would not finish first. Mr. Lewishon's confidence did not de- sert him at any period during the twenty minutes in which the book was being made. He felt sure that Mackay's horse would win, and every wager he made was bet straight. He paid no attention to odds laid for place and to show. When the several horses entered in the race paraded past the grand stand in review Lewisohn was still busy placing commissions. He did rot depart from the betting inclosure until the cry “They’re off!” caused the bookmakers to rush out to the lawn to get a view of the struggle. The last wager of Lewisohn was $100 against $1200 with Abe Levy. It was said that Lewisohn's winnings on the race were upward of ‘T'he Metropolitan was the feature of the opening day’s meeting of the Westchester Racing Association. From noon until the first race was called crowds poured into the track, and by the time the first classic fixture of the Eastern racing season was run fully 25,000 people were present. A bet- ter day could not have been desired. At the close_of the betting Starbright, owned by W. C. Whitney, was settled up- on as the favorite at odds of 4 to 1. while Barastar went to the post at 12 to 1.

He hung to Contestor's withers for a moment, and then, in the last fow jumps, Banaster succeeded in poking his nose in front-and landed the stake for his new owner by a head.
