Barren of any special feature, the rac- ing cpened with a five and a half furlong run, for which Mamie Hildreth was backed down to mild favoritism. Stuart, who rode the mare, put up a lifeless sort of effort, and Ransch landed the 6 to 1 shot Gaylon Brown first after being in front all the way. Lief Prince lost the show to Phil Archibald, an outsider. “Pi” Ruiz met with better luck on Tyranus, favorite for the two-yea dash at five furlongs.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Cal., May | | 20.—Stanford’s Varsity football team will be weakened by the absence of two and | possibly three of its veteran players, who | up to this time were expected to return for the coming season. It was learned to-day that J. G. de Forest, who for two years played guard on the big eleven, will | probably not return to college in time to |take part in the annual game. He has joined a surveying party, which will de- tain him in Alaska till 'late next fall. Carroll Seeley, right guard and the m ive man in the cardinal team 1 st will leave college in a few days for Sumatra, where he has accepted a Derma- nent position. The third player whom Stanford may lose is Traeger, the giant tackle who wen the game for the cardinal last year by his neat place kick from the fleld. It was_announced a few days ago that he would go to Harvard next year; but 1t is | more than probable that he will return to Stanford in the fall. If he does he is the | logical candidate for captain in his last vear. | -However, the prospects for Stanford | turning out a winning team next fail are | by no means blue. Hamilton, tackle on the Reliance team; Keddie and Volz, full- | backs on the Nevada University wnd the | Berkeley High School teams respectively, will wear cardinal jerseys for the first | time when college opens 1n September. The best men on the second eleven will also return. ‘The fight against slavery in this country was a prolonged one.

Challenger Proves Fastest in Reaching and Her Wind- : ward Work Is Good. g RYDE, Isle of Wight, May 20.—The two Shamrocks raced to-day over an open sea course, the first leg of which is a beat from Calshot Castle to a mark.outside the Nab lightship, and Shamrock IL won. | The wind was steady from the east and | was blowing a club topsail breeze. 8ir Thomas Lipton’s steam yacht Erin towed the yachts clear of the Isle of ‘Wight and then both set their lower can- | vas. The challenger’s new crosscut main- sail, though hoisted for the first time, seemed to set to perfection, better even than the mainsail of Shamrock II. ‘When the Erin gave the signal to start the challenger, as usual, was kept a trifle in hand. about three lengths astern, but a length to the windward. In a fine, fresh breeze the boats heeled well over to the press of their enormous sails, making great progress. No Appreciable Advantage. The first tack was to starboard and they fetched along ten or fifteen minutes, both lying equally close to the wind and apparently footing at about the same speed. The Shamrock I tacked and the | challenger also came round under her weather quarter. The challenger then pulled up and the yachts fetched along, beam for beam, in a long fast leg toward the island shore. 8 When they next went about they were close together, but as they hove | about at different times there was a con- | siderable gap. As they stood off again in a northeasterly direction, at this time half an hour from the start, the boats appeared to be practically on the same footing as when they started.. Neither had secured an appreciable advantage. Turning at the weather mark, the boats | started sheets and -reached along the wind for an island shore breeze. Soon af- | ter they gybed around the Erin, still in close company, but with the Shamrock 1I leading. The booms went over with sheets well out for a broad and easy reach for the line whence they started. The challenger held her lead on this point | of sailing and was first to cross the line. | , Time at the Finish. ! The time at the finish of the triangular | | course of about seven miles was as fol- ows: Shargrock I 4 By gl namrock I . 4 5 % | The ccurse gave them a fair test in beating to windward and reaching free. | For the purpose of testing the yachts down the wind, booms were squared away and spinnakers were set for a fin- ishing trial before the wind from the Nab lightship to Southampton water. The Shamrock Il continued to hold the lead which she had gained over the triangular course. The wind was fairly steady when they | started the rupning. trial, and the new | | challenger drew away - in excellent | | fashion, On. the short run from the Nab | to the Warner lightship she gained more | than a couplé of minutes and passed the | Warner leading by three minutes and | four seconds. From there home the wind was soft and | | catchy and the gap was repeatedly closed | and opened as they ran for their moor- fngs | f EASTERN RACES.

SUCCESS OF VEREIN’'S SHOOT Edward Doell Carries Off Schuetzenfest Honors and Is Crowned King of the Festival. THE RANGE. VEN the driving rain. that éon- tinued throughout the day could not daunt the enthusiasm of the marksmen who assembled yesterday at Shell Mound Park to participate in the second day's contests of the annual prize shooting given by the San Francisco Schuetzen Verein. It was the forty-second celebration of the Ver- ein's May festival. What the entertain- ment lacked in numbers when the rain began to fall in torrents it quite made up in fun- making and good - fellowship. Weather conditions naturally had a de- cided effect on the scores, as a miniature blizzard kept the wooden eagle on the move for more than three hours, and until the final shot from a rifle in the hands of | Eaward Doell, who carried off the honors of the day, disledged the national bird | from*its perch, the result was in doubt and productive of the most intense rivalry between the crack shots of the verein. Early trains carried the company of shooters and their friends from the mole to Shell Mound Park. After dancing had occupied the throng for two hours the shooting contest began.

There he was to taste the full glories of his feat., A big bouquet of roses made into the form of a huge yoke was placed about his neck and while the band played and his brethren cheered he received an-osculatory greeting from Miss Edna Lamar that sounded like the echo of a Mauser rifle from a Philippine jungle.

JOINT HIGH COMMISSION TO MEET THIS SUMMER Will Take Steps to Remove Existing Difficulty of Bringing Prisoners From Dawson. OTTAWA, Ont., May 20.—The joint high commission, representing this country and the United States, is expected to re- sume its sittings during the present sum- mer. Sir Wilfrid Laurier, the Premier, in his speech on the British Columbia Judges’ bill to-day, alluded to the diffi- culty of bring prisoners from Dawson City across the strip of _terrifory at Skaguay claimed Dby the United Statos and occupied by them under the terms of a modus vivendi. Sir Wilfrid remarked that this question was one the high com- mission could deal with when it resumed its sittings, as he hoped would be the case in the course of the present summer. Although nothing further official can be obtained on the subject it is likely that the meeting will take place in the fall, probably at Quebec. The Premier intends to visit the- Pacific Coast and the Yukon shortly after the session and has made engagements which will keep him going for the next three months.

Regulations Regarding Turns and Time Limits Slight- ly Altered. The annual regatta of the Corinthian Yaeht Club will be held on May 30, and already the preliminary work of the re- gatta committee in arranging the details and mapping the course is almost com- pleted. The committee met last evening In the office of the secretary, J. C. Brickell, and decided upon the turns and the placing of the buoys of the course and the starting rules. The course will be the same as usual, but there will be several changes in the rules governing the rounding of the buoys. It has also been decided to shorten the time within which yachts must cross the line from ten minutes to five minutes, and also to shorten the interval between the starting of the classes from ten min- utes to flve minutes. The start will as usual be from the foot of Powell street wharf, and from that point the entire course can be seen. All of the fastest yachts of the club have al- ready been entered, and the regatta prom- ises to be one of the most successful ever given by the club.
