SACRAMENTO, Aug. 17.—Johnson was knocked out of the box to-day and re- tired to the bench at the end of the fifth inning. Hodson relieved him and held the Senators down to four hits, three of which were bunched in the ninth and resulted in two runs. The entire game was one of sharp fielding, seven double plays being made. Dunleavy took Lohman’s position at the receiving end, the latter having a finger nail torn off in yesterday's game. Devereaux pitched for the home team and aia good work. Score: / OAKLAND. R. BH. §B. PO. A.

He now feels certaln that he will meet +Jim Jeftries, the champion of all the world, and almost as certain that when the meeting takes place an old champion will be toppled over and 4 new one set upon the pedestal. The challenger was fiying his salls about town yesterday in a modest sort of way. He is quiet of manner but full of spirit, interesting himself in everything that crosses the track. “I had better not feel too gay,” he said to a crowd at Corbett’s after a hearty lunch, “for the first thing I know Jeff will not agree to the terms. S % PUGILIST GUS RUHLIN, THE AK- RON GIANT, IN HIS NATURAL FIGHTING POSITION. P i Ly X | * FAST GOURGERG OUT FOR HONOR Flying Fox and Dew- drop Are the Open Stake Favorites. The run downs in the two events yester- day at Union Park resulted in a good programme of sport. In the open stake the short ender would show itself now and then, but not often enough to break the monotony for the piker. P Better running could not be ‘asked for, though throughout the day's‘doing there was nothing of the sensational order. Cronin's Tralee Boy, a Futurity candi- date, was the first to set the wise ones thinking. Liberator was the youngster’s opponent and was thought good enough to run for the talent’s coin against the Boy. Two and a half to one was the price, but when the course was finished it looked that the odds should have been reversed. Liberator got away well from the slips, but Tralee Boy drew out from behind, passed him up the field, and, getting possession, held his opponent away and beat him pointless. Hickory Dick, another puppy, beat a favorite. Rest Assured was quoted a § to 3 choice, but lost a close race to him. Naughty Girl resented the talent’s action in offering 5 to 1 against her, and beat Spiteful, her opponent, by a clean score. Rocker beat Kittleman at slight odds and Talk to Me earned the decision from Bona Fide, a 5 to 3 favorite. When White Hat and 'King Cotton went to the slips the Curtis dog carried the bestrwishes of the knowing ones. Without reason the talent had allowed themselves to pay 6 to 1 for their choice, and the result showed their poor judgment. White Hat proved himself the better dog and his victory was a deserved one. Bright Gold made a better showing than he has since his debut here and took the flag from Motto, who carried the big end of the money at odds of 4 to 1. Crockett Hill beat Master Workman, a 2 to 1 choice. Considering his recent per- formances the talent should have reversed the price. Likely winners in the second round are Harlean Gladys, Ireland, For Glory, America, Snapper Garrison, Sir Lawrence, John Doe. Fine Fire, Homer Boy, Rector, Talk to Me, Candelaria, Silver Cloud, Bonnle Pasha, Luxor, Dewdrop, Tyrone Prince, Santonin, Chicago Boy, Faraway, Sir Pasha, War Bagle, St. Ives, Crockett Hill, Bright Gold, Flying Fox. For the stake Flying Fox and Dewdrop look to havé the best chance to reach the final. Rector and Vandal are well played. They meet in the second round.

NEW YORK, Aug. 17.—Bobby Walthour scored a signal victory over Harry Elkes on the Manhattan Beach cycle track this afternoon. They met in a one-hour mo- tor-] race and Walthour won by a lap and & quarter after traverdng 36 miles and a t:ncuon . 4 ' | Anyway, it’s up to Jeff now, and if he is_willing to fight here is the chance.” Ruhlin is in good physical shape as he stands, and probably not more than two weeks of hard work would be necessary to put him in fighting trim. His muscles are hard and compact and there is little or no fatty tissue to take off. “I will wait until Tuesday next before making any plans for training,” he said. “The sooner the'fight comes the better, but as long as 1 can get at him I am satisfled. I'll be ready to sign the moment we meet next Tuesday."” Since Jeftries attained the championship status he has developed a strong financial sense. Strikes and lack of sporting ele- ment in a community affect him and his manager with much dread. The races will bring_a number of prizefight patrons, and the absence of strikes will also be good for the house. So Jeffries will dictate the date of the fight and Ruhlin will agree. Such is the prerogative of champions. The question of referee might cause some opposition on the part of the chb under whose auspices the fight wili take place. The San Francisco Club has its appointed referee for all contests—Jack Welch. But in a fight of this magnitude the managers are likely to waive any such demands for their own referee and con- form to the choice of the principals, which is George Siler. The question of referee would not be of any moment to the Twentieth Century Club, for it has no ordained arbiter of fisticuffs. The choice of clubs lies between these two promoting organizations, with the chances in favor of the San Francisco Athletic. Both man- agers are willing to fight before Greggains or Jim Kennedy. Even though the date of the fight be set as late as November or December, Ruhlin will remain on the ground all the time, and Jeffries will pass the weeks and months before the meeting at one or more springs. END OF ST BISH MEETING Trotters and Runners Divide the Pro- gramme. SANTA ROSA, Aug. 17.—The week's meeting of the Santa Rosa Racing Asso- ciation was brought to a close to-day with a programme equal to that of any day of the week. The attendance was good, but the betting was slow. Preceding the card three horses went exhibition miles for new marks. The Santa Rosa stock farm’s Fram set hers at 2:17%. another of the same stud, On Stanley, went in 2:17% and R. P. M. Greeley’'s mare, Winnie Wilkes, set a pace of 2:23. The opening event of the day was a local race and aroused much interest. It was a contest for a purse offered by the Santa Rosa Driving Club and open to both trotters and pacers. The betting was lively, but Grace Brothers’ Ole, a son of Silas Skinner and a full brother to Nick Russell, who is just now showing up well on the Eastern tracks, won the race in three straight heats. Cock Robin, owned by Frank D. McGregor, had many back- ers and Venus N, a local “phenom” that once sold for $7 50 as a saddle horse and afterward developed a speed of something like 2:17 at a pace, came in for a great deal of comment. The mare was nervous, however, having never appeared In a race before, and did not show to the best ad- vantage. There is no denying the fact that she has speed, but she needs work. The second event was a three-quarter mile dash for the runners. Gold Baron failed to respond and the contest was be- tween Catherine Bravo, Blue Bell, Com- ing Event and Mountain Dew. Catherine Bravo finished first in 1:14%, with Logue in the saddle, Coming Event, Blue Bell and Mountain Dew showing up in the or- der named. The third race was also a dash for the {‘bang-tails.” The distance was six fur- longs with a handicap and the event was open to four-year-olds and upward. Lou Clieveden, J. L. Rector’s chestnut mare, sold as the favorite, the bookies asking odds of 4 to 5. The start was fair and at the turn it looked as if it might prove a glose thing, but Pldalia. with Slocum In the seat, finished without trouble in 1:15, Lou Clieveden, Pongo and Whaleback coming in in the order named. The fourth event on the card, which closed both the day and the meeting, was a three-quarter mile handicap for the run- ners, in which there were six. entries. The books considered Miss M. O’Connell’s chestnut gelding Boardman the most like- 1y, with George Richardson’s Gross as sec- ond choide. eir judgment proved iood in the first instance, Boardman finishing first in 1:16, with Dr. Hart second. Following are the summaries: To beat 2:23%—Fram, b. 8., Direct by Abbotts- ford (Lafferty). Time, 2:17. To beat 2:21%—On Stanley, b. s, Direct- Lillle Stanly (Ramage). Time, 2:17%.

Many of the cases that are sent to Dr. Meyers & Co.are in the last and most com- plicated_stages, sometimes the result of personal neglect, oftemtimes the result of ill-treatment by a family physician, or so- called svecialist.

LARCHMONT, N. Y., Aug. 17.—To-day’s | finish between the Constitution and the Columbia was only a matter of seconds. For the fourteenth time the two vessels have raced and for the eighth time the Constitution came out a winner. To-day the margin was small, for she beat the Columbia only 58 seconds, corrected time. In elapsed time she won by 2 minutes 18 seconds. The race was safled under conditions' | that best suited the Constitution—a steady eight-knot breeze and a smooth sea. It | was finished, in 3 hours 3 minutes, very nearly a ten-knot gait, which was fast time, considering the wind and the fact that twelve miles of the course called for windward work, although it was not a dead beat. The Constitution gained on her rival on every leg, doing best in reaching. It was a fair test of speed, as the boats got the wind throughout and there was little to choose in the handling. It represents about what the new Consti- tution can do to the old Columbia under the conditions which prevailed, and while many yachtsmen who have followed the boats are disappointed that the difference between them was not greater quite as many more are satisfled that the Consti- tution, before the trying out is over, will have proved sufficient superiority to war- rant her selection as the cup defender. The course chosen was a beam jeach of x miles, a beat of six miles witfl a long and short leg and ar broad reach of three miles, twice around. The start was one of the closest ever made by the two yachts, as they got off only two seconds apart. The reach down to the first mark was made in quick time and it was only a fast steam yacht that could keep up the pace. The Constitution covered the six miles in 43 seconds less than the Columbia. Aft- er rounding the Constitution made a short tack inshore and came about on the weather bow of the Columbia just as the old boat luffed around the mark. Both boats now stood down on a long starboard tack toward the entrance of Hempstead Bay. The Columbia was seen to be doing better close hauled and when half way down to the next mark went clean through the Constitution’s lee, romping off with a good hard full. The Constitu- tion, however, pointed well up and keyt her windward position. Coming out info the bay, the boat caught the fresh wind first and added materially to her lead. Both boats were able to make the second mark with one long and one short leg. The Constitution rounded the second mark 1 minute 9 seconds ahead of the Columbia. The wind was now about the best of the day and was blowing well up to ten knots. Both boats came over to the home mark off Larchmont on a broad reach with big jib topsafls and balloon staysails. On this short leg of three miles the Con- stitution added only a second to her lead. After rounding the buoy and starting over the course the second time the Con- stitution’s men had trouble in_sheeting home the big reaching sall, which was shaking in the wind for over a minute. The wind still held and the two boats ran to the first mark, a six-mile leg, In less thah half an hour. The constitution had added forty sec- onds more to her lead. Both went about | on the port tack immediately after round- ing and stood down the Long Island shore | for a long board. The Constitution, hav- ing a good lead, got out from under the headlands and into the open bay and was first to get the increasing breeze. They tacked around the mark and then stood | for the finish line. On this leg the Constitution had gained twenty seconds more. Both broke out bal- loqn jibs and spinnakers for the rum in, the wind having shifted a bit into ths south, at the same time coming lighter. Both racers got a boisterous salute and repeated cheers from the attendant fleet. The last race in the Larchmont series will be sailed on Monday. The two yachts will then go to Oyster Bay for the Sea- waphaka events Thursday and Saturday. The New York Yacht Club race, which was scheduled at Glen Cove for Wednes« day, has been called off. b samealh i CAPTAIN SYCAMORE'S VIEWS. Believes the Constitution and Colum« bia Are on a Par. NEW YORK, Aug. 17.—The ShamrA 11 was floated out of the drydock to-day and was taken to Tomkinsville, where the finishing touches will be put on the racer. Befors she left the dock she was painted a light green above the waterline. Sir Thomas Lipton’s people hope to have the Shamrock II in readiness for a cruise off the Hook on Wednesday to greet her owner when he comes in on the Teutonie, due that day. Captain Sycamore, who witnessed yesterday’s race between the the Columbia, when two boats, remarked that they were so much alike that he did not care much which one would be put against the Shamrock IT. He thought, however, that the Constitution was a better finished boat than the Columbia and that so far as he could judge there was little differ- ence in the sailing qualities of the two American yachts.
