10 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, AUGUST 16, 1902. ITS HOLD IN THE BURLINGAME COACHING MAINTAINS I | l WAarTi 1IN FUTURITY HAS ATTENTION OF COURSING EN They Are Carefully Preparing Their = Greyhounds for the Sharp “Competition Ralph Orthwein’s Can't Tell Is Made One of the Big Favorites for the Stake A near interest in the rich event for gréyhounds whelped last year in- creases. The arrival of George Sharman from Los Angeles with two likely candi- dates has done much to stimulate the in- terest. The management of the Union Coursing Park will take advantage of La- ber, day to make the Futurity meeting a three days’ carnival of coursing. The Futurity will be the special attrac- tion on .the 30th and 3ist inst., while a special hollday stake will form the card for Labor day, September 1. Or the 2ith inst. another special stake, with $ entrance fee, will be the feature, together with an open stake. George Sharman has returned from Los Angeles, where his dogs have been con- sistent winners for months past. He brought with him his two Futurity candi- dates, Slip Away and Shoo Fly. They are by Emin Pasha-Miss Skyrocket. Mr. Sharman also brought back with him Chicago Boy and Black Flush. His Futu- rity candidates have been given a lot of practice at Los Angeles and are expected to_prove factors in the big stake. Emin Pasha will be represented in the Futurity stake for the last time this year. As a fitting close to his remarkable ca- 1eér on the fleld and in ‘the stud he is better represented than at any previous time. This holds good as to both quan- tity and quality. Among his best repre- sentatives will be the Maggie N litter, in which are Can’t Tell, John McKenna and Spercer. A. R. Curtis has lost by death Cande- laria and King Cotton. They were both runping at Los Angeles. ‘Warship, now owned by Alex Corder, sustained a broken leg and will be out of the running for some time. C. Strangler of Los Angels has bought Hot Haste from George Sharman.

This, they say, would serve to bring to the front many promising ama- teurs who are desirous of breaking into fast company. This sort of thing is in vogue in the East, and in some of the larger cities the amateurs cut a wide swath, A good plan would be to lease the local grounds to the youngsters on Sunday mornings, and what they would take in | at the gate would more than pay for the wear and tear on the diamond.

The Delphin Club crew has been broken up by the illness of one of its members. The South End four, which won the event on Lake Merritt, is in the intermediate clasg, so neither of these clubs will be represented in the race.

Great preparations are being made in Alameda for the carnival to be held next month to celebrate the opening of the tidal canal. . The Board pof Trade of Ala- meda called a citizens’ fheeting at which a general committee in charge of the cel- ebration was appointed.. Among the sub- committees the chief is the aquatic com- mittee, on which are representatives of the Alameda Boating Club, the Encinal Yacht Club, the California. Yacht Club and the Oakland Cance Club. The idea of the aquatic committee is to have as many yachts as can be obtained at an- chor in the canal between Fruitvale bridge and Park street bridge and to have a large number of whitehails and row- boeats, illuminated with lanterns, parade up and down to give life:and movement to the display. Some members of the Ala- meda Boating Club have already rowed around the island of Alameda, the first to do so having been J. C. Stamer, who was accompanied by two young ladies. The Alameda Boating Club will be able to hold clam bakes. and. outings at Bay Farm Island, to which -the members will rew in barges, skiffs or any available hoats.

Morehead of Los Angeles has pur- chased Quito from P. M. Curtis. Quito is by Fetter Free-Cash, and is considered a good prospect for the Futurity. Ralph Orthwein’s Futurity candidate Can’t Tell, which starts this week at Ua- jon Park, is looked upon as a possible winner. When the odds on the Futurily were first posted she was listed at 50 to 1. During the past week her odds have been haummered down to 10 to 1, making her one of the stake favorites. The directors of Union Coursing Park bave declded to allow Futurity candi- | | ? | dates competing before the big stake is | run to be withdrawn if their owners think they have had sufficient coursing, Under the rules of the park no dog ‘can be drawn without the consent of the field | stewards.

It will be a place of general amuse- ment. The coursing will be ugder the jurisdiction of the California oursing Committee. Coursing at Union Park will commence this afternoon upon the arrival of the 1 o’clock train. The first round of a 64-dog stake will be disposed of. For to-morrow the principal event will be a special stake, for which twenty-four dogs are entered. The dogs beaten in the first round will meet in a consolation event. The likely winners look to be: Special stake—Gambit, Boy, Tavioca, Melrose ‘Lad, Bonnle Pasha, Real Aristocrat, Musket, Tame Tralee, Little Sister, Game Boy and Silver Cloud.

The Magee brothers, Tom and Walter, have taken up the game again and will make some of the best first class men hustle to beat them. Walter played dur- ing the week with his old dash, but was out of practice. Miss Bertha Gardner, the champion lady player of the park, has joined the Califor- nia Tennis Club and with the proper prac- tice will develop into a first-class player. Miss Varney, another park player, is even more promising than Miss Gardner, whom she defeats rather easily. 2 The tournament scheduled to be played at Del Monte on the I5th Is off, as the local players did not care to take part. The Ladies’ Annex will hold a tourna- ment on the park courts @ext Friday.
