30 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL , SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1902 SPEEDY GHARTA 13 THE GHOIGE Talent Figures Curtis’ Dog Special Stake Favorite. Ruby Sankey Defeats Fast Narcissus at Good Price. The two stakes run down yesterday at Union Coursing Park attracted the larg- est Saturday sattendance of the season. The trials resulted in good coursing. Of late the hares have been of a class above any seen on the local field. Their unusual speed in the stakes of the past few months put the hounds to harder and more severe tests than the oldest of leash- men were accustomed to witnessing. Though the hares liberated at yesterday’s meeting were not up to the recent high standard they were fast enough to make the going interesting. Sacramento Boy ran a great dog against Hickory Dick in the special stake, and if he can beat Charta in the first course to- day his chances for the big end of the | stake are excellent. In the long-odds book the Boy is at 7 to 1, while Charta rules stake favorite at 4 to 1 Little Sister is at § to 1, and she, too, is a strong claimant for first place. She is in good trim and many expect her to repeat her clever work of last week. Merrimac and Roman Athlete are at § and Tralee Boy at § to 1. The talent made a good showing in this stake and picked all but four winners. Narcissus, a 1 to 4 favorite, lost to Ruby Sankey; Greenhall, at 1 to 3, led and beat Mayfiower; Snapper Garrison outpointed Real Article at 1 to 3, and at 3 to 5 Fenil got the flag from Lear King. In the open stake Royal Union is first choice at 4 to 1, Warpath is at 5, Fannie Hughie and Bad Boy at 6 and Kittleman at § to 1. Kittleman looks a good outside chance. Winners in the special stake look to be Charta, Snapper Garrison, Freda C, Tapi- oca, Bisquoc, Aeolus, Merrimac, Kibosh, Tralee Boy, War Eagle, Tame Tralee, Mamie Pleasant and Little Sister. In the open stake likely winners are Living Picture, Bogus Brummel, Cotton Ball, Precita Maid, Fannie Hughie, Rich Argosy, Warpath, Dorothy M, Glen Coe, Lovina, Wapsee, Bad Boy, Royal Friend, Royal Union, Auckland and John Doe.

Lays His Defeat to Over- anxiety to Win Quickly. George Gardner is keenly disappointed over the outcome of his meeting in Me- chanics’ Pavilion Friday . evening with Jack Root. Both he and his represent- ative, Alec Greggains, &re bending all their energies to secure & return match for March. They have offered Lou Houseman, who represents Root, a side bet of $2500, which they consider a tempting balt for the Chi- cago boxer. The latter has not decided what his future plans will be, although he will probably ‘return to Chicago to-mor- Tow. Gardner’s showing on Friday night was a disappointment to his friends. He was overanxious from the start and seemed intent on winning in short order. He com- menced swinging wildly at as clever 2 boxer as Root and paid dearly for nis indiscretion. His seconds cautioned him repeatedly, but he persisted, saying he had it won and that he would stop Root inside ten rounds. Gardner wagered $550 on‘ his own chances, and was overanxious to cash his tickets. Alec Greggains gave an order to a bookmaker to bet all he could for him at 10 to 8 on Gardner. Roots friends were equally sanguine of success. House- man bet $700 to $1000 that Root would win and advised his friends to have a bet down on the Chicagoan. - The betting was 10 to 7 on Gardner until the third round, when Root was installed favorite. Root's real name is Korinek: He is a native of Bohemia, a principality of Austria. His name translated means Root, hence the selection of that name by the boxer when he made this couutry his home. The gate receipts were $7139. From this was deducted $100, Referee Phil Wand's fee. The fighters received 60 per cent of the remainder, making their share $3519 50. Root received 75 per cent of this, or $2767 60, which Included $125 allowed him for transportation from Chicago. Gard- ner's share was $751 0. When the match was made each man seemed so sure of winning that there was no thought of di- viding the purse, each wanting the lion's share to go to the victor. The outcome of the fight has upset all calculations of the Yosemite Athletic Club officials. They had announced a'meeting on the last day of this month between Joe Choynski and the winner, but public senti- ment seems against it. The officlals are in a quandary, as there are few popular boxers avallable. Toby Irwin nd James Britt met at Har- ry Corbett’s yesterday and posted a for- feit of $100 each that they would be at the required weight on the night of their fight. They also put up a side bet of $500 each. This fight will Be held under the auspices of the Acme Club, Oakland, and is expected to draw a large attendance. TRAEGER WILL COACH THE CARDINAL ELEVEN Frank Slaker Will Fill the Position of Assistant Coach at Stanford During Football Season. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Feb. 1— William I Traeger will be head coach as well as captain of the 1902 varsity' football team. This decision was reached at a meeting of the first and second eleven football players held last night, and their action will probably be ratified by the ex- ecutive committee. The plan of having the captain act as head coach is adopted directly from the system in vogue at Cornell and to a large extent at Harvard and Yale. Frank Siaker, varsity fullback on the Chicago and Stanford teams, was selected as as- sistant coach, and on his shoulders will fall the principal burden of the coaching. Slaker's work in preparing the cardinal eleven for its contest with Michigan was highly commended. His selection as as- sistant coach meets with the general ap- proval of the student body. The varsity nine defeated the alumni baseball team by the score of 6 to 6§ in a close andl interesting game this after- noon. For the visitors Hamilton, Oak- land’s outfielder, Walter Christy at sec- ond and “Jimmy” Lanagan, former var- sity pitcher, played the best ball, —_——— R. B.

Front at Oakland---Greyfeld Nosed Out by | Will Prepare Nasturtium Handicap--Durazzo Plays in Better Luck Four Favorites in Lapidus for the — * OADED with facts and figures and well supplied with ammunition in the way of coin, the Saturday gathering at Oakland track met ‘with more than ordinary success yesterday in its skirmishes with the book- ing fraternity. Nothing could have been more popular than the victory of Sweet Tooth for the $1500 Adam Andrew selling stake at one mile and a sixteenth, carry- ing Birkenruth, and sporting the colors of L. V. Bell. 'In fact the popular New York turfman’s horses were much in evi- dence throughout the afternoon’s sport. For not only did Paul Clifford run second to his stable mate in the stake, but Black Dick secured place honors behind Afghan with two or three books quoting 100 to 1, while Herculean, piloted by Tommy Burns, captured the closing race. No fault could be found with the performances of favorites, as four heavily backed ones were returned first. Six started in the stake, which was fifth to be decided. Owing to a well de- fined play on Horton, some 6 to 5 could be had about the Bell pair, Sweet Tooth and Paul Clifford. From the start, the stable had everythirg to themselves, Burns on Paul Clifford cutting out the pace and Sweet Tooth trailing. Had Ransch, astride MacGyle, met with mora luck the last three-sixteenths and not been cut off, there might have been a dif- ferent story to tell. As it was, & neck sep- arated the two stable mates at the wire, with MacGyle only a head farther away, on the outside. Horton, ridden:out by O’Connor, ran a close fourth. Redwald and Frangible were never factors. Bob Smith appears to be so bubbling over with luck, of the sort that drives people to walking on the water with a fifty-pound weight in each vest pocket that he ought to purchase and burn three dol- lars’ worth of Chinese punk in an en- deavor to drive the hocdoo way. In the Pacific handicap, after Lapidus, piloted by Johnny Daly, had tired some under the clinking pace set, Birkenruth, on Smith’s Greyfeld, got up to the leader, and it looked all over but getting in line.. Then, ‘while little Daly on Lapidus made his last rally, Birkenruth sat perfectly still, and Lapidus won by a nose. One cut of the whip would probably have altered the re- sult, but that is racing luck. For some inexplicable reason, La Goleta opened at 8 to 5 and went to 5 to 2. She finished third, if that is any answer to the prob- lem. The racing began with'a half-mile dash for 2-year-olds. Durazzo, which on his first essay some days ago had the misfor- tune to be disqualified, went to the post a 2 to 5 favorite, ridden by O’Connor. Adirondack outbroke the bunch, leading for over half the distance, when the fa- vorite nabbed and beat him with ease. Honiton ran third. None of the six starters in the mile and a quarter hurdle event could be accused of possessing much class, but they put up a pretty fair article in that line. So- lano and Bonitary ruled favorites in the ring, but were unable to land the mer- chandise. Master Lee, a 15 to 1 shot, with J. Murphy in the saddle, raced and jumped Solano to a standstill, and then won easily from Loyal § and Bonitary. Afghan, with Lee Jackson instead of J. Woods up, took the six-furlong selling event in clever fashion from the 30 to 1 shot, Black Dick. Jacqueminot, the light- weight of the party, showed the way to the stretch, there giving up the lead to the favorite, Shell Mount. The 3-year-old couldn’t stand the clip, and under Jack- son’s skillful handling, Afghan scored by a length in 1:14 Herculean, an 8 to 5 favorite, took the last race in a drive from Artilla, the third choice. Burns, on the first choice, did not get away from the barrier any too well, but salled through his field, beating Ar- tilla at the wire less than a length. Pica- dor was third. D e B e o e i e b i ] RUBY'S “COUNT” NOW IN A JAIL Man Who Ran Away With a Young Girl Is Arrested. Special Dispatch to The Call. EL PASO, Tex., Feb. 1—Count de Lucenay, allas Count Arnold Francis de Presboist, who forsook his bride of three | months in San Francisco to elope with 17-year-old Ruby Luckhardt, to whom he was married in El Paso less than a month ago, has been apprehended in Dallas. To- day Sheriff Boone received this dispatch: “I am holding Marquis Rudolph de Lucenay and his wife. They are mar- ried. What is the charge? Answer. “STERLING PRICE, Chief of Police.” Sheriff Boone wired the Dallas Chief that he will leave El Paso in the morn- ing to bring the pair to this city, where the Count will be tried on charges of bigamy and perjury. After the courts here are through with him he may then be sent back to California. ‘When Presboist married the girl here on January 2 he made oath that she was more than 18 years of age. He also made affidavit that there were no legal obsta- cles to his marriage. As soon as the of- ficers here learned that his marriage was irregular they undertook to trace him, witn the result as stated in the foregoing. It was not known that he had married a girl under age until January 24. Since that date the Sheriff has been working on the case. The criminal charges were preferred against the fugitive by the District At- torney, who declares the Count will be presecuted to the full extent of the law. Marrying a girl before she has reached legal age is a felony in this State and 1s a penitentiary offense. To prove the Count guilty it will be necessary only to establish the age of the girl. Telegrams have.been sent to the wife of Presboist and the brother of the bride, advising them of the arrest, and that they will be needed as witnesses by the State. Wife Will Prosecute Him. The “Count de Lucenay,” alias Count Arnold Francis de Presboist, alias John B. N. Flood, who was arrested at Ll Paso, Texas, yesterday, is well known in this city. He wedded Adelina Biagini, daughter of Joseph Biagini, a cattle dealer at 508 Greenwich street, on September 14 last. A week or two after his mhrriage he deserted his bride and went to Los Angeles. There he met Ruby Luckhardt, and eloped with her. The authorities tried to overtake the “Count” and lodge him in jail, as the young lady is under 18 years of age. ‘When the “Count” deserted Adelina Biagini, he took $300 out of her trunk. She is glad that he has been apprehended and will go to Los Angeles to prosecute him. In order to gain possession of her money and have him punished, the deserted wife swore to a warrant for his arrest. Don't ignore a man because he is in the lightweight class. It is easier to throw a cannon ball a mile than it is to throw a feather ten feet. 1 HUGGING SAILS FOR ENGLAND for the ¢ lassic Derby.

MAYOR SCHMITL DEMANDS JUSTICE e Continued From Page Twenty-Nine. vacated by Mr. Windrow and all persons claiming under him. Respectfully yours, “E. E. SCHMITZ “Mayor of the City and County of San Francisco. ‘A copy of this letter has been by me this day forwarded to Hon. S. Braun- hart, chairman of the Public Bulldings Committee of the Board of Supervisors. ‘Windrow Kept Busy. The business of the rival clerks was con- ducted without molestation yesterday. The attorneys who favor the contention of the Justices as to their power to ap- point their own clerk transacted business with Windrow. The result was that the bulk of the day’s business was done by him, while the office force of Clerk Fred- rick was in comparative idleness. That the Board of Public Works will take some action as regards Windrow's occupancy of Justice Dainels’ courtroom as his office is deemed to be certain, and the developments of to-morrow will be awaited with genuine interest by all who are concerned in the outcome. Acting on the suggestion of Mayor Schmitz the Mission Federation of Im- provement Clubs decided at its meeting last night to appoint an investigating committee to inquire into the alleged ex- travagant expenditure of the city's money in retaining useless clerks. The Mayor signified his intention of removing Colonel Mendall from the position of Commis- sioner of Public Works if it was clearly shown that he was drawing two salaries, one from the United States and the other from the city treasury. Evidence as to the unfitness of the present Board of Health was also invited. To comply with these requests the committee Wwill set about to aid the Mayor. The Mayor's attention will also be di- rected to the demand for the abolition of the position of one of the secretaries of the Park Commission, on the ground that the work had been performed for a num- ber of years by one secretary, whereas at present there are two. His attention will also be called to the five clerks now employed in the clerk’s office of the Jus- tices of the Peace. It is held by the mem- bers of the federation club that three clerks are sufficient to do all the work. The Mayor was commended for his ac- tion in removing ex-Justices’ Clerk Wil- liams.

At the Farmers’ Club to-day it was re- ported by L. F. Graham and other promi- nent growers that, after experiments with thousands of trees, they were satisfied that carbon bisulphide was a positive remedy for the peach root borer. Y A trench is dug about the tree and from one to two ounces of carbon bisul- phide placed around the trunk of the tree and covered with dirt, the fumes pene- trating the boring in the tree and killing | the insects. M In the last ten years all kinds of ex- periments have been made to get rid of this pest. Whitewash was used and the borers were dug out with knives, but this later process frequently. killed the trees. Mission Clubs Take Actjon.
