Fog, thick and impenetrable, obscured nearly all view of the last three races. Always a great favorite with the gen- eral public, but apparently forgotten during the speculating on the fifth num- ber, Horton, the lttle red horse, falirl waltzed in at odds of 7 to 1. The supposed wise money was divided between Sea Lion and Hungarian, each closing at 8 to 5. Sea Lion made the running, turning into the straight for home with Hoar on Horton at his throatlatch. There was no outfooting the latter from there on, for he gradually forged to the front, winning by two lengths, Birkenruth, astride Graf- ter, a 20 to 1 chance, caught the tiring Sea Lion, securing the place. Hungarian proved a dismal failure for such a hot one off the coals. Always very much in evidence over a muddy track, Invictus, a 43 to 1 chance, with Fauntleroy up, made a runaway race of the introductory sprint, winning by two lengths. Mounce on the favorite, Searchlight, had to thread his way through the bunch and was led out for | the place by Mike Rice. Ruiz rode the latter, and the old gelding showed marked improvement. Rollick, from the Burns & Waterhouse stable and a 4 to 5 favorite, lasted to | within a few yards of the wire in the | second race, and was then downed a neck | by The Miller, a 10 to 1 shot. *“Handrid- | ing” Kelly rode the latter, exercising good judgment, and made a well-timed | move.

The captains and more of the fun would become serious business both for players and spectators.. The field would have been fairly good for football, but for baseball it was not what 1t ought to have been.

As a re- sult but few complete courses were wit- nessed by the spectators. The misty weather, though, seemed to have an ex- hilarating effect on the hares, for despite the forced short slips they maintained thelr speed and gave their pursuers many hard, long runs. The talent had a good day and picked all but six of the forty courses correctly. The pikers came in for’ a couple of long shots. Kavanaugh's Maybe Kind helped them to the tune of 10 to 1 in her go with the imported courser Representative. The local dog on leaving the slips ran us- sighted, but when she joined in she put up a grand exhibition and cleveriy out- worked her opponent. Then Fenil, on.whom th talent had put {up 6to1, ran a losing course to Fly by Night. In the open stake Sacramento Boy looks the best dog on the top of the card, while Cold Shivers at the bottom Is a strong candidate for honors. F.ery Face and Roman Athlete are likely outside chances.

All the Players Shcw. an Ead-of-the-Season Lack of Interest. Umpire “Rube” Levy ‘“called” what purported to a basebull game yesterday at Recreation Park in the first haif of the elghth inning. The fog, which Lad hung over the fleid during tne afternoon, set- tled down on the players in the seventh inning. It was almost impossible to dus- tingwish the fielders. ‘1ne players wanted the game called in the seventh, but Levy ordered them to continue. In the next inning Devereaux sent the ball out to Dunleavy at center ficld. Tne umpire called Devereaux out, although Dunleavy dropped the ball, something Levy did not see. In the midst of some Joking over the incident the game was called. The players on both teams performed their duties in a perfunctory manner. Sacramento won by a score of 5 tos1 Four of the Senators’ runs were made In the opening inning, the first four men up scoring on a home run hit by Courtncy. Flood and Sheehan singled, Stanley got a pass to first, and then Courtney cleared the bases with his timely hit. Courtney scored the Senators’ other run in the fifth. He singled, went to sec- ond on Hoffer's sacrifice and came home on Davis' single. Eagan was the only man to score for Oakland. In the fourth he singled and just beat the ball home after a two- bagger by Babbitt. The score: OAKLAND. AB. R. BH, SB. Mohler, 2b 38t 20 Francks, ss. Dunleavy, Streib, r. Babbitt, 3b.

Though the first competition for the Goodall cup was to have been held on the Oakland links on Thanksgiving day, it as deferred on account of the inclem- ency of the weather and a speclal prize was offered, to which the name of the Mudlark cup was given.

From the moment that President Roosevelt and his ty entered the great amphitheater un- thl half an hour after the timekeeper had blown his whist'e announcing the cessa- tlon of hostilities thére was a continuous uproar, such as probably never has taken’ place on any football field in the country. Even the President and several mem- bers of his Cabinet, worked up to a ner- vous pitch by the excitement, left their seats in the private box which had been set anart for their occupation and took positions on the side-line benches, which are usually used for substitute players and coaches. The President's appearance was the signal for a tremendous outburst of applause, which continued until he had walked down the center of the gridiron and across the fleld to his seat In the north stand. The President's silk hat was on his head scarcely five seconds from the time he ertered the grounds until he had taken his seat, so continuous was the ova- tion. Hardly had the President and party taken the'r seats before the navy team came unon the fleld from the west en- trance. The followers of thé Annapolis eleven made the stands shake with their cheers, and blue and orange flags seemed to be floating from all sections of the fleld. Six minutes later the' West Point lads trotted out, and then the black, orange and gray of the army was waved deliriously from the big south stand. No time was consumed in formalities. The coln was tossed and Captain Nichols of the navy called the turn correctly. He chose the west goal, with a slight advan- tage of the wind, and at 2:15 Graves had kicked off. From the moment the ball was put in play until the timekeeper's whistie blew there was no more interested spectator of the game than President Roosevelt. The contest had been In progress less than ten minutes when he left his seat in the private box and took his position on the side line bench. When Casad broke through the navy’'s line and ran 6 yards the President jumped to his feet excited- ly and advanced toward the gridiron, but returned to his seat a moment later when the ball was put in play again. At the end of the first half Secretary Root and General Miles came across the ficld to escort the President to the army's HOW PLAYERS LIN:D UP FOR THE BIG GAME WEST POINT.

With Secretary Long and a de- tective on his right and Secretary Cor- telyou, Licutenant Commander Wain- wright and Secretary Root on. his left, President Roosevelt walked across to the south stand and again occupled a seat on the side line. When the two teams resumed play at 3:28 and Daly of the army team made his great run of 105 yards for a touchdown President Roose- velt jumped to his feet with an expres- sion of surprise on his face, and, like thousands of others, could scarcely real- jze what a remarkable plece of football mechanism Daly really is and that he could make such a phenomenal run through an entire fleld. - Annapolis won the toss and chose the west goal, giving West Point the bal Graves kicked to Nichols, who was thrown on the navy's 29-yard line. An- napolis then carried the ball to their 42- yard line, where the army line held and l A GREAT STRUGGLE FOR HO§9RS. * I Belknap was forced to kick. Daly caught the. ball for West Point on the latter’s 30- yard line. West Point could make but little impression on the navy line and Daly was forced to kick, the ball going to Annapolls on her own 50-yard line. After carrying it back to West Point's 45-yard line the navy boys lost the ball on holding and West Point immediately punted to the navy’s 3-yard line. The navy punted to West Point’s 25-yard line and Daly carried the ball back to mid- field before being downed. The army lads carried the ball to the navy's 28-yard line, where they lost it on downs. The navy sent the ball out of danger, the ball going to West Point’s 30-yard line. On the first line-up Casad of West Point broke through the navy line and carried the ball to the navy's 2-yard line. H"'"‘“'" Bucker and Casad carried the ball tem' " yards nearer the Annapolls goal. It was the third down, with three yards to gain, and Daly dropped back for a try at a fleld goal.
