During the coming week the largest number of craft belonging to the San Francisco Yacht Club that has been seen for many years on the Sacramento River will rendezvous at Walnut Grove. Vice Commodore R. S. Bridgman left Sausa- lito on Thursday evening in the sloop Thetis, having on board Mrs. Bridgman, | Miss Edith Bridgman and three young men. On Friday evening A. C. Lee and three friends started on the annual cruise in the sloop Surprise. Yesterday morning at 7:30 W. M. Edgell and W. G. Morrow set sail from Sausalito in the yaw] Royal, intending to carry the flood tide all day and make Suisun in the eveming. Mrs. Edgell and two childrén will go ashore at Suisun, while the two men will come down Suisun Creek and meet the rest of the yachts at Walnut Grove. The sloop Mischief made a start at 9 o'clock in the morning, having on board W. Hum- ghreys, his brother and three friends. hortly before noon the yawl Phyllis | made sail. having on_board the Follans- bee brothers, Harry Dot and Dr. Blake. In the evening Dr. T. L. Hill got under way in the sloop Cygnus, aboard of which were Mrs. T. L. Hill, Mrs. C. B. Hill and Henry G. Toll. - There was a good breeze {n the channel vesterday, and besides the yachts already } mentioned cruises were taken by the| schooners Chispa and Ramona and the yawl Tramontana. On board the flagship | were ex-Commodore Carl Westerfeld and | ex-Vice Commodore Andrew Thorne of | the Corinthian Yacht Club. It {s possible | that H. R.

DEL MONTE, Aug. 3.—A match game of polo was played at the Del Monte race- track this afternoon between two Bur- lingame teams—R. M. Tobin, Joe Tobin, T. Driscoll and Charles Baldwin on one side and Walter Hobart, Cyril Tobin, F. J. Carolan and H. Howard on the other. The former won by a score of 5 to 3. The players arrived here during the week and ntend to practice daily,- with a match | game every Saturday, in preparation for the big polo tournament that will take place here August 22 and 23. The ground was in fine condition to-day and th ay- ers had good sport. iz . 29l 4 | pleasurable sport from the pikers’ point | book; Dewdrop and Flying Fox are next PALO ALTD HAG LUCK T0 SPARE Beats Young Freeze Out ‘When Defeat Seems Inevitable. Thirteen short ends, some at good strong odds, made the rundown of ‘the open stake at Union Park yesterday quite of view. One of the features of the day was the course between Palo Aito, the old cam- paigner, and Sterl & Knowles’ puppy, Freeze Out. The youngster is a Futurity candidate and her past showings have installed her a favorite for stake honors in that event. As the pair left the slips the older dog went to the front and scored three points. Then Freeze Out joining in took possession and by clever work ran up a total of six. It looked bad for Alto while the little one was on the game, for at any time,had she killed it would have given -her the flag. As it was the cham- pion got in for a couple of wrenches and a turn and dispatched the game, gaining the decision by a solitary /point. A good illustration of ‘coursing luck was shown in the work of Lady Clare. The talent unwisely and without strong reason made the Lady a 10| to 1 favoritc over Tom Hurlick. The St. Lawrence dog won by a score of 5 to 4 to the disgust of the wise ones. Later in the stake Sisquoc, who was on the card to course with Silver Cloud, was forced to run a bye. Lady Clare was selected to g0 against him and because of her ex- ercise with Tom Hurlick was naturally placed on the short end. Five to one was the price the talent offered and this time the Lady offended her former backers by beating her_opponent. Railway Boy, entered by D. Donovan, made his initial run with Iowa Boy as his opponent. He proved another surprise to the bettors, and after a course which went over the limit he scored 28 to the Boy's 14, Kellogg's dog was a 5 to 1 choice. Other short ends were: Prompto beat Silver Lyon at 5 to 1; Boney Boy beat Ripple at 4 to 1; Pickpocket beat Master Gordon; Fly by Night beat Rosfe R; Mose beat TFontenoy; Best Bargain beat Jimmie Anthony at 2 to 1; Crockett Hill beat Layender; Modest Lad beat Brutus at 5 to 8; Hot Haste beat War Eagle at 5 to 2. The saplings were a green lot. Satan- ella beat Pasha Girl at 4 to 1; Cobweb beat Pasha Belle at 5 to.2: Lady Lou beat Republic at 5 to 8. Likely second round winners in the open stake are: Tyrone Prince, Ireland, Herschel's Pride.

SR ALBERT WING LAURELS a Green Pacer Makes Hit at Sacramento Meeting. s SACRAMENTO, Aug. 3.—The closing day of the races given by the Pacific Coast Trotting Horse Breeders’ Associa- tlon was one long to be remémbered by those who were present. Besides two well contested races, which were only decided at the wire, the remarkable performance of the Diablo colt, Sir Albert S, in the 2:17 Cclass pace proved conclusively that he is the greatest green pacer ever foaled In California. "~ Against nine contestants, each one having remarkable speed, get- ting the worst of the first send-off and go- ing around all- those in front of him, he won easily in 2:11%. Then in the next heat, being carried to every quarter-post by one or two of the others, he came in under a pull in 2:13. One horse, El Diablo, who had shown his ability to go in 2:10 on ‘Wednesday, was considered so good that the bookmakers offered no odds upon him, while 2 to 1 was offered on Albert S. In the next heat the little fellow, ably driven by J. Groom, had a battle to the half with Freddy C in 1:03, to the three-quarter pole | with the “good thing,” El Diablo, in 1:33, | and then jogged home under a pull in the | remarkable time of 2:08%, never making | a skip or break, but going so easily that many horsemen pronounced him the com- ing two-minute pacer of America. He was Just beginning to get ready to go when the race ended. The bay gelding Dan Burns, sired by ‘Willlam Harold, dam Linda, paced to beat 2:26. He made a record of 2:23%. Then Cyrene, by Guide, out of Alice R, by | Nanbuc, trotted a mile in 2:27%. The first race calied was for the 2:20 class trotters. The entries and prices were; Puerto Rico 2, Prince L 5, Flora- dora’4 to 5, Thomas R 3, Roxie 30, Al- monado 15, Zambra 15. Floradora took the lead and Prince L was at her shoul- der, with Puerto Rico a length behind. The rest were strung along in one, two, three order. At the half Puerto Rico passed Prince L, and with a splendid dis- play of skill Donathan almost caught the easy-going Lafferty at the wire, being only a head behind Floradora. Time, 2:18%. Roxie and Almonado were dis- tanced. In the second heat Puerto Rico was 3 to 6, even.money could be found on Flora- dora, Prince L was iisted at 10, Thomas R at 10 and Zambra at 10. As soon as the word was given Bunch took his horse, Thomas R, to the front and Floradora and Prince L were at his wheel. He gradually drew away from them and won with ease, Floradora quitting badly in the stretch. Puerto Rico got away last, broke at the first turn and was _just outside the dis- tance flag when Thomas R was at the! wire, but the judges allowed him to start | again. Time, 2:17%. Floradora and Prince | L led like a team to the head of the home- stretch when Puerto Rico took the lead away from them and beat them to the wire in 2:21%. In the next two heats this mod.w%ame son of Sable Wilkes jogged ‘in a winner in 2:18% and 2:19%. The second event was for the 2:17 class pacers. The entries were C. Whitehead's Toppy, T. Claacy’s Direct C, E. W. Run- yon's Banker's Daughter, A. H. Cohen’s Advertiser, Vendome Stock Farm's Our Boy's Sister, D. F. Oglesby's Nellie I. C, | ‘W.

At the half reddie C came up to him. and tocgether Uke a team they led the big field of pacers by three lengths. On entering the stretch Sir Albert § drew away and won in_com- paratively easy manner in 2:11%. Toppy was tbird and the rest were =scattered along to the draw gate. The mile for the winner was as good at 2:09. S. H. Hoy was substituted for W. Tre- fry in the next heat. After repeated scor- ing Starter Gray gave the word. Toppy set the pace, but Sir Albert S came up to Lim at the first eighth and clearly and easily outpaced the big fleld. Coming to the Wire Freddie C, Toppy and El Diablo came on with a rush, but Sir Albert S| shook them off casily and won by a length from Freddie C. El Diablo was third. Nellie I and Gaff Topsail were distanced. Our Boy’s Sister was withdrawn on ac- count of lameness. In the next heat the rumor got around that Sir Albert S was 2ll out, ard many thought he was, but when he came cut many wondered at his fine appearance, and great praise must be accorded Groom for the splendid man- ner_in Which he brought him to the pest. El Diablo had apparently laid up tke oth- er heats and was fresh when the word was given.

At the last moment, however, it was an- nounced that Elkes would not race. It was said that his physician had refused to permit him to do so. The other four entered the contest. . Walthour won the race, his time being 54:05 3-5. McEachern was second, Nelson third and Michuel fourth.

NEWPORT, R. I, Aug. 3.—The Inde- pendence to-day sailed the greatest race of her career. In a stiff southwester which raised a rather heavy sea, she was beaten forty seconds over a triangular course of thirty miles by the Columbia. As she allowed the Columbia thirty-one seconds over that distance she was de- feated one minute and eleven seconds cor- rected time. This is a better showing than the Constitution has made against the Columbia under similar conditions of wind, sea and weather. On the first leg of the triangle, which was a beat to windward, the Columbia gained more than three minutes. No of. ficlal time was taken at either the first or second mgrks, so these figures are only approximately correct. The regatta com- mittee estimate that on the second leg of the course, which was a broad reach ith the wind abaft the starboard beam, t Independence gained one minute and fif- teen seconds on her opponent, while on the last leg of the cour: which was sailed with the wind on the port beam, she gained thirty-five seconds. The- last leg was the most exciting. The breeze was puffy and at times had great weight in it. Being about abeam, the yachts felt its full strength. Sometimes the lee rail of the Inaependence was co pletely submerged and the water on deck rushed off in a torrent over the taff: Never before had she heeled to suc pronounced extent in_a public perform- ance. It was noticed that when the squalls were the heaviest the Independ- ence steered very wild and that two men at the wheel could not keep her stea her course. The yawing about w pronounced that she would come up into the wind until the Juff of the jib topsail quivered as though she were close hauled and essaying a fisherman’s luff. A minute OF to later ghe would be running wide off her courdf and covering an ample stretch. of the ocean, leaving behind her a serpentine wake. While the Independ- ence was performing this zigzag work the Columbia was going through the water straight, attending strictly to business and heading for Brentons Reef lightship. So far as sails were concerned the Inde- gendence had the worst of it. She was andicapped by a working gaff topsail, which on the ten-mile stretch to wind- ward was more or less of a backsail, and which in the two reaches that followed had very little Yulllng or propelling pow- er. Another sail that prevented her from making a better record was the medium- sized Jib topsail, which was set after passing the first mark. This sail con- tributed largely to her wild steering, and when it was taken in she felt the benefit of its balance. Mr. Lawson, her owner, observed her behavior from his steam yacht Dreamer. ‘With regard to the performance of the Columbia, she was sailed admirably. The only mishap that befell her was the foul- ing of the jib sheet when off Point Judith on the windward leg. This necessitated a short tack so that it might be cleared, but she lost little by it. While the Inde- pendence was encountering the series of squalls en the homeward leg the Colum- bia by no means escaped them. The masts of both buckled considerably, and the Co- lumbia heeled over at times as much as the Boston boat. Also she steered on two or three occasions almost as wildly as the Independence, but she was got under con trol and steadied on her course far more quickly. The thirty-mile course, ten miles of which were dead in the wind’s eye, was covered in two hours, fifty-one minutes and forty-eight seconds by the Columbia, making it one of the fastest on record. 4
