THE SAN E;RANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, MARCH 24, 1902. OUTDOOR PASTIMES ATTRACT .MANY 'SPORTSMEN FAR AFIELD COURSERS FROM. G CARRY OFF HON EARY’S KENNELS ORS ON THE FIELD Capture the First Four Places in the Open Stake at UnionCoursing Park----A. R. Curtis’ Fawn Grey- hound Narcissus Wins Special Event Cleverly REYHOUNDS from the kennel of Eugene Geary distinguished them- I selves in the open stake yester- day at Union Coursing Park. Four of them were entered and they defeated every dog they met until the quartet had no more dogs to conquer. | Under the conditions the stake had to he1 run to the end, so they were drawn one | against the other, although fthe first four prizes had already been won. Under these conditions America beat Ireland and Ruby Sankey beat Fair Oaks. in the deciding course America carried | off the honors, defeating Ruby Banke)" by a score of 11 to 8. | For a time it seemed the same state ot‘ affairs would prevail in the special stake. Of the eight dogs left in the third round | four represented the Curtis Kennel. Con- | trary to expectatiod, the first three were. defeated, leaving Narcissus_the sole rep- | resentative of the Santa Clara coursing man. He proved equal to the task im- posed upon him, defeating Tralee Boy pointless in the semi-final and shutting out Vandal in the deciding course. The | loser in each of these courses is owned by T. J. Cronin. Narcissus had one minute less coursing during the day than Van-, dal and showed great speed and deter- | mination. | In the deciding course of the sapling | stake Conroy was made a 2 to 1 favorite over Maid o’ the Glen. The latter won by | score of § to 3. She is a month older | than the black dog, and showed it in the | running of the course. The detailed results of the day’s cours- ing, with Judge John Grace's official scores, follow: Sapling etake, deciding course—T. Sullivan's Maid o' the Gién beat M. C.

This puts him at,a declded disadvantage as a . conversationalist or mimie. . efll complimented him as being the hgdut man to beat he had ever met. Ferns_tried to explain that had it not been for the malaria in his system the result would have been different. Neflll came back with the statement that Ferns was just the helght of man for him to flx&fi.’tna ‘he could not miss hlm‘t' ‘‘Young chell,” who was presen said all credit for Ferns so long was due to. the cleverness o Manager Hanley, who was in his corner, ainough not acting as a second.
