Unfortunate- ly only a small number of specta- tors who had been present during the day had remained. The first exciting event and one of the most interesting of the show was the judging for the best dogs owned and ex- hibited in the ring by. a lady. Among the competitors were a toy black and tan, St. Bernard, collie, Irish terrier, bull terrler, Great Dane, Boston terrier, maltese ter- rier and Japanese spaniel. After eliminating all but three dogs from the competition the judges, six in num- ber, came to a deadlock. Major J. L. Rathbone and Mr. Cranfleld voted for Mrs, Charles Newman's St. Beraard, Les- ter C; Ho Yow and Dr. Clayton voted for Mrs. Klein's bull terrier, Woodcote Won- der, while Mr. Carnochan and Mr. David- son voted for the Japanese spaniel. The judges refused to reverse themselves and when it finally became a choice be- tween the massive St. Bernard and the dainty Japanese spaniel Ho Yow, who is always diplomatic, suggested that each receive a prize. Owing to the marked difference between the dogs this seemed reasonable, but under the inexorable rules of the kennel club was impossible. George S. Thomas of Boston was finally chosen as a referee. As he is essentlally a terrier man it seemed a foregone con- HE sensational competition of San Francisco Kennel Club show at 1 clusion he would name the bull terrier. He did not do so, however, casting the deciding vote in favor of the 8t. Bernard, thus upholding Major Rathbone and Mr. Cranfield. The “best four of any breed” was the next class called up. When it came to a show-down it was found that J. H. Ros- seter held four aces. His greyhounds, which have been one of the features of the show, secured the votes of five out of the six judges. Mrs. Klein's bull ter- riers were placed second and a quartet of cocker spaniels third. This afternoon there will be a parade of all prize-winners at 3 o’clock. In the evening the cups and medals will be dis- tributed among the lucky winners. AWARDS OF THE JUDGES. The ‘‘Redelshelmer Cup'’ for the best of hounds—Won by Sen” Mateo County.

The game was bounded out in good time. The big lads bumped the horsehide more than twice as hard as the wee’ uns, but for all that they ended one run shy. It was a close finish—3 to 2. In the last spasm of the agony the Sen- | ators managed to place a man at every post. Truck Eagan proudly walked to the plate like Casey of old and did the Caséy act to a finish. He first walloped the air and then made faces at the um- pire. After that he tried to hypnotize lit- tle Hoddle, but instead he struck out, a most tragical finish for a quiet lttle game. Sheehan arrived for M. Fisher in the opening splurge on two singles. Ewing’s hired help opened up and went him one better. Two men were nailed at home, but Devereaux’s hot single to left did the trick. The Senators again spoke in the next inning, when singles by Frary and Graham and Wagner’s sacrifice created a deadlock. The deadlock remained intact until in- ning seven rolled around. Devereaux flew to left fleld and Dunleavy hit hard against the right garden fence for - two bags. Francks brought him in with a hot grounder past third. The Senators had a ew chances to-win, but somehow or other they could not get their hits bunch- ed and the Oaklands refused to make any more errors. Hodson pitched remarkable ball. The sphere was banged around quite freely, but Hoddle always managed to pull out without any serious damage. Thomas twirled in ideal form. He used good judg- ment, had nice curves and an ample sup- ply of speed. However, every hit the commuters made was there at the right moment and none of them were wasted.' Sheehan hit the ball hard, and Bir- mingham did good work at first. Dunleavy made a couple of pretty throws in from left and cut off two runs. In the third Eagan opened with a hit and Rebsamen followed with a double to right. Eagan could easily have made the plate, but Brick Devereaux greva!led upon’ him to slide and hold third, so Brick’s tact saved the game for Oakland, The score: OAKLAND. E AB. R. BH. SB. PO. A. E.

LOS ANGELES, April 2%.—San Fran- cisco won from Los Angeles to-day in a game of many unusual and exciting fea- tures. That Los Angeles did not win was due partly to careless base running and partly to Slagle's failure to take care of bunted balls. In fact, it was a game that might have been won or lost at any one of a half-dozen stages. Slagle pitched good ball as far as hits counted’ but failed to fleld two bunts in his territory after he had given a base on balls and hit a bat- ter. Thus he was responsible for two runs. Reilly was twice put out while try- ing to stretch his hits, once at the home plate and once at third. Lawler's phenomenal catches of two long flies at the center fleld fence saved the game for San Francisco. In both in- stances hg was back against the fence and caught the ball with one hand at arm’'s length. The home players fell on Kane's delivery in the ninth inning, and that they failed to win then was due to Roach’s attempt to stretch a single into a two-bagger. He was barely caught out at second and shut out Reilley on a run that would have tied the score. Attend- ance 2500. The score: LOS ANGELES. AB. R. BH. SB. PO. A. E.

SILVER CUP OFFERED FOR GENTLEMAN’S RACE Little Amy Requa Long Makes Dona- tion to Fabiola Derb; Day. s OAKLAND, April 25.—The feature of the Fablola Derby day at the Uakland racé- track to-morrow will be the gentleman’s race. For this event little Amy Requa Long, the little daughter of General O. F. Long, has offered a silver cup to the suc- cessful rider of this race. The cup has been on exhibition for some days in this city and is a very handsome piece of work. riders for the race are C. D. Bates Jr., Fred Dieckman, Charles F. Pugh, Frank Skinner and Charles H. Led- gett. It is expected that there will be a very large crowd from Oakland, as all of the admissions will go to swell the funds of the Fabiola Hospital Association.

Although Gard- ner receive the decision on his aggressive~ ness and clean blows it was by so nar- row a margin that a draw decision would undoubtedly have given more general sat- isfaction. This applies especially in this case owing to the rumors that the com- test was fixed. To allay these reports Billy Jordan an- nounced that the Yosemite Club manage- ment had authorized Referee Smith to call off all bets if he saw any sign of a job. It was also announced that if a job developed the fighters’ share of the re- ceipts would be given some charitable in- stitution. Charity never had a look in. For three rcunds some of the spectators thought the men were not trying, but at the end of that time the scoffers h joined the shouters and were using their lung powers to cheer instead of jeer. WALCOTT A MARVEL. Walcott re-established himself in the good graces of the ring patroms. It seemed cruel to put him against the big man, but once they cleared for action the disparity In their size seemed to disappear. Walcott will always remain the marvel of the modern prize ring. In the early stages of the fight Gardner tried fighting at close range, but Walcott would not give him an opportunity to shape up and prepare to deliver a blow. The colored wonder was first out of reach and a moment later he was under his op- ponent’s guard, as safe from harm as though he were at home playing whist. Walcott was never still, keeping boring in at all times, and Gardner did not seem to be able to hurt him. After a while Gardner tried long-range fighting, which proved much more effective than his other tactics. In the fifth round he cut Wal- cott's mouth. After that he paid particu- lar attention to the injured spot. He landed some uppercuts under Walcott's guard in a clinch. This was the blow with which he whipped Carter last Sep- tember. Walcott proved no novice at this, per- forming the same trick on Gardner. The latter was badly punished about the face. His nose and lips were puffed up and his eyes discolored and apparently ready to close. In the eighth round it seemed Gardner was on the down grade, but he pulled himself together and put up a strong finish. The nineteenth and twentieth rounds were whirlwind affairs. bringing the spec- tators to their feet. The last round was desperate going for Walcott, who palp- ably weakened under the shower of blows e received. hGa.rdnel‘ was swinging pitilessly with right and left, every blow going unerring- 1y to its mark. Walcott finally went down under the hall of blows which fell about his head. In his excitement Gardner swung at him while he was down, landing a left to the face. - The blow was a technical foul, but as no damage resulted the ref- eree properly took no notice of it. Wal- cott was chagrined over the outcome of the fight. While arguing the question with Referee Smith the police entered the ring and stopped the unprofitable discus- sion. The attendance was not in keeplng with the quality of the fight. THE FIGHT BY ROUNDS. When the gong sent the men -together in the first round Gardner at once went after Walcott and did some fast feinting.

Walcott tonk one blow in the face which seemed a hard ome, but he only laughed and said “It's lovely." Gardner presented anything but a pleasing ap- pearance with his red face, swollen nose and pufted lips. Gardner's left eye showed a biue circle about it and seemed to be on the verge of closing.
