Katherine Ennis Wins Af- ter Judges Caution Her Rider. TOCKTON, Sept. 26.—Stockton day attracted the banner crowd of the week to the fair. The features of the /day’s sport were the four running events, in which there were as many close and exciting finishes. Only one fa- vorite came under the wire first, but most of the second choices were well played. Biil Young, a local horse, came in for a heavy play in the five and a half-furlong selling event and made good after getting away in front. Tioletta took the six-fur- long dash and Expedient won the mile and 10 yards after several horses had challenged him. Katherine Ennis captured the final event after Hazard, her rider, had been cautioned-by the judges. The trot and pace were taken in straight heats | by the favorites, Cczad and Eagletta.

The blows looked light, but | rad any one of them reached the point aw Nelll would certainly have of the | aropped. Neiligsuddenly came to and sent a right to the head which turned the tables com- | pletely. It was Jackson’s trying moment | and at the bell he seemed nearly out. | The twentieth and last round was a | carnival of slugging, each man trying his best to put the other out. After they shook hands Nelll hit in a clinch and was warned. He sent a right to the head, which staggered Jackson. He fol- lowed this with a viclous left rip to the body. Jackson did not back away, but exchznged blow for blow with Nelll. Nefll sent his right to the head twice and took one in return. Jackson jolted him in the body. Neill sent right and left to the head and took some hard ones in return. When the bell sounded the end of the round and fight both men were fighting as though they were just beginning. The house, which was crowded almost to its capacity, was in an uproar during the last round. When Referee Graney pointed to Neill the big building resound- ed with cheers for the game boxer. There were cheers for Jackson also, for the remarkable gameness he showed. The thirteenth round nearly ended dis- astrovsly for Neill. He was receiving a terrible drubbing when his seconds dis- ccvered the electric timing clock had stop- ped. When the round finally ended it was fcund the men had boxed twenty seconds longer than the rules require. These extra seconds were bad for Neill. PRELIMINARIES ARE SHORT. Caesar Attel was given the decision over Hugh McGordan after six hard rounds. The men exchanged blow for blow for the first three rounds. After this McGordan seemed to lose his steam and was then only a punching bag for Attel. McGordan took a lot of punish- ment, but lasted the limit, The fight between Bobby Johnson and Tommy Snailham ended in the fifth round. Snallham was being badly pun- ished and his brother tossed a towel into the ring, acknowledging defeat. The fight was a desperate one from the start. ‘Willie Bourne, who was substituted for Jack McDonald in the bout with Morris Rauch, was knocked out in the second round. Bourne was in no condition for a contest. POLICEIEN ARE WORKI NG HARD FOR THE SUCCESS OF THE BENEFIT Some Prominent Theatrical Stars to Take Part in the - Grand Opera=-House Entert'ainment.‘ HE members of the Widows' and Orphans’ Aid Association of the Police Department are making elaborate preparations for the benefit which is to be given for the association by Marie Wainwright and her company at the Grand Opera-house during the weck commencing Monday, Oc- tober 13. Miss Wainwright and her stars will appear In “Twelfth Night,” and there will be other attractions from the Or- pheum, Tivoli, Chutes and other theaters. The theatrical managers are taking great interest in the arrangements for the ben- cfit and are assisting to the full extent of their power in providing an interesting programme. There wjll be matinees Sat- urday and Sunday, October 18 and 19. The members of the Police Department are leaving nothing undone in their ef- forts to make the benefit a complete suc- cess. All the members are rapidly dis- posing of tickets and already there has been a very large advance sale. The arrangements for the benefit are in the hands of the following committee: Chief of Police George W. Witiman, Cap- tain M. O. Anderson, chairman; J. J.

The board of directors of the Mer- chants’ Assocfation met yesterday and passed the following resolutions: Whereas, An ordinance has again been intro- dnced in the Board of Supervisors for the purpose of permitting the reopening of Ingle- side racetrack; and whereas, the Merchants' Assoclation by vote of its members taken last February declared itself as opposed to the reopening of the Ingleside racetrack and in- structed the board of directors to actively op- pose the same; therefore, be it Resolved, That the Merchants’ Association reiterates its former stand on the subject and protests against the reopening of the Ingle- side racetrack, on the ground that the attend- ant gambling features are detrimental to the | best interests of San Francisco.

HE see-saw in the stampede for the flag remained true to the wise dope , Yesterday, so the Angels carried |away the third game of the big series. A ‘whole lot of time and still more men were used up before the fans had a chance to make a wild dash for the supper table. | The Angels could do nearly everything that counts when runs were in demand end led to the finish, 6 to 2. It took thirteen husky men from over the water to quench the Angels’ desire ifox‘ runs and base hits, and they had still |more coming if the game only lasted a Lttle longer. The only thing lacking was |an ambulance and -a few Red ' Cross |nurses to play in the outfield of the | leaders. This would come pretty near ap- | peasing the appetite of the hungry crowd, which was longing for something that never came. The first two victims of southern ven- geance were the erratic Mr. Cristall and the latest mask artist, Mr. Kleinow of Toledo. In their places were Oscar Gra- ham, another side-wheeler, who used to vote in Omaha, and Uncle Pete Lohman. This happened in the seventh round. | Next inning Judge McCreedie said he was atout due for a slumber, so Spec Hurl- burt consented to chase a few stray files in right field. Time woré on and in the ninth Julie Streib said his wife was wait- ing supper for him, so Gorton was or- dered down to first. In all, thirteen men went to oppose the Loo Loos, and still there was nothing to it. The ‘game, though long, was interesting in spots and sometimes was on the verge of becoming exciting. The lcaders could not possibly get a base hit when one or more bags were occupied, and if every- thing had gone right Jones would have had another shut-out to show some anx- lous big league magnate next year. Jones pitched the right kind of stuff and the leaders never had a chance to pummel his offerings. Cristall went about the lmit for wildness, and aside from this, the Angels battered him around the lot whenever they saw fit. Graham was better and from the seventh on the run- getting came to an abrupt end. It all started in the second. Reilly and Anderson hit, Mohler fumbled Lawler's grounder and Cristall took an ariel vey- age by walking Jackson, which forced Reflly home. A wild pitch gave Ander- son a chance to register. Jones' out, sec- ond and first, allowed Lawler to make it three. The Angels took a siesta for a couple of rounds, but woke up and put a couple more runs over the rubber. Three clean singles by Dillon, Householder and An- derson did the stunt. Again in the sixth one more happened along to swell the tide, but Graham’s appearance stopped it all. Dunleavy furnished the lone sensational incident of the day In the eighth. Jack- son rested on third, there was one out, when Raymer hit a fly out to deep left field. After Dunleavy had caught it Jackson started for home, but Dunleavy threw him out at the plate by making the greatest throw seen on the local diamond in many a day. The score: OAKLAND. AB. R. BH. SB.

SACRAMENTO, Sept. 26.—The Senators batted out another victory to-day, every run being made after two men wgre out. Their hiiting was timely, howevér, and for once Whalen's delivery looked Ilike any other person’s to the sluggers of the home team. McLaughlin received word that his father was seriously ill and he was out of the game. Then Unglaub mixed up with Umpire Levy and was put out of the game, so that the Senators were as crippled as the Ponies. Hogan went to first base and played it well, and Stricklett did the honors in right fleld and was kept busy there. Cut- ter began the game on the delivery end, but when Unglaub was retired Graham concluded to take no chances and, al- though Cutter was twirling well, he sub- stituted Thomas in the second inning and WENTY ROUNDS ATIATEUR TARS TO PLAY HOSTS AT SAUSALITO Meet Corinthian ands California Clubmen. Wil Music and Feasting To= Day and a Cruise To=-Morrow. ANY yachts 'of the Corinthian and the California clubs will cruise to Sausalito this afternoon and even- ing, where their crews will take part in the reception to be given by the San Francisco Yacht Club. The committee having the reception and entertainment in charge consists of Com- nodore R. 8. Bridgman, Vice Commodore A. C. Lee, Secretary W. M. Edgell, Dr. T. L. Hili, W. G. Morrow, Eugene W. Levy, Emil A. Dein and R. W. Mason. The members of the committee have used ‘| great efforts to make the entecrtainment successful and have prepared an excel- lent programme. -“Dr.” Hill will act as master of ceremonies and will keep things moving in his well known energetic style. Mary novel and interesting features will be introduced into the show and refresh- ‘ments will be provided. The committee promises a continuous performance with talent that will never grow weary. Invitations have been is- sued to the members of the Corinthian, California and San Francisco Yacht clubs and a jovial gathering or amateur sallors is expected. To-morrow the three combined fleets will cruise in the channel and out to the Heads. Though the winds have already become light in the upper bay, a strong, steady breeze is still found out in the channel. The tide serves well for an out- side cruise, as it runs out all morning and begins to flood at 2:51 in the afternoon. Though one calendar month of the yachting season still remains, only one more event is set down in the schedule of the Sar Francisco Yacht Club. This is the regatta on October 12, open to any boat on the bay, for yachts of 25 feet rac- ing length or less, over a course off the clubhouse at Sausalito. ‘The Corinthians will cruise to-Paradise Cove on Saturday evening, October 4, and will enjoy clam chowder and other good things on the shore. Next day there will be a race for small boats. On Saturday, October 18, the Tiburon sailors will cruise up to Corinthian Cove, where on the fol- lowing day the annual Corinthian games will be held on the shore. The California Yacht Club will cruise to Paradise Cove on Saturday, October 12. The protest of Carl Westerfeld, one of the owners of the sloop Aeolus, against Commodore A. E. Chapman of the Val- lejo Yacht Club for violation of the rules of navigation in the annual interclub re- gatta on Admission day, will be consid- ered by the regatta committee at a meet- ing to be held on Monday evening next. Carl Westerfeld charges Commodore Chapman with four violations of rules, to each of which charges Commeodore Chapman replies “not guilty.” The skip- per of the Vallejo yacht Helen further states that the sloop Aeolus ran into the starboard quarter of Helen, jamming her helm down and putting her again on the port tack, besides injuring four of the crew. As Commodore Chapman and the members of his crew are employed in the shipyard at Benicia, it is doubtful whether any of them will come to San Francisco to testify before the re- gatta committee. Carl Westerfeld and all his crew are residents of San Fran- cisco and will be on hand. It is sald that the sloop Helen might be disqualified on the ground that she had eight men on board during the race, although entitled, according to the rule, to only seven, her racing length being 26.51 feet. The schooner White Wings has been bought by Charles H. Morrell, who for- merly owned the sloop Queen and sailed her in one of the races for the Perpetual Challenge cup, and J. M. Patrick, for- merly owner of the sloop Thetis. Sha will still fly the burgee of the San Fran- cisco Yacht Club. Last Sunday the flagship Thetis, the schooner Chispa, the yawl Wave and the sloops Rover and Cy were in the channel, as was also W. G. Morrow’s Challenger. The sloop Queen cruised to Paradise Cove and was towed back to her moorings by the launch Rob Roy, the launch Imp per- forming a like service for Challenger. The Macdonough cups, the Law cup, the flags and certificates won in the Ad- mission day regatta of the Pacific Inter- club Yacht Association will be presented to the owners on Tuesday next at the Merchants’ Exchange at 5 p. m. ‘W. M. Edgell, secretary of the San Francisco Yacht Club, has received from Thomas W. Lawson, builder of the yacht Independence, a copy of a magnificent volume, containing a history of the races for the America’s cup, with handsome en- gravings and colored cuts. The volume is decorated with the burgee of the San Francisco Yacht Club in colors, and is a costly product of the printer’s and en- graver’s arts. i A v DTSR Winners at Irvington. u‘PORTLAND.

TENNIS TMEN PLAN VARIOUS TOURNAMENTS Will Hold Four in Each IMonth on Public Courts. Handicap Doubles Game to Be Concluded To-Morrow. ANY tennis tournaments will be M played on the local tennis courts this winter. On the park courts there are four tournaments a month, the ladles and gentlemen alternating each week. The handicap doubles tour- nament for men held last Sunday on the public courts was by far the largest ever held in the city. Of the twenty-five teams entered but one defaulted, and play was completed down to the semi- final round. The handicapping and management of the tournament proved excellent. The four teams that will meet to-morrow are T. D. Black and J. F. Brady; James A. Code and Kenneth Marr, R. N. Whitney and ‘Wil Allen, and R. Clinch and L. McKay. The first mentioned teams will be op- posed to each other and the winner will meet the winner of the last mentioned teams in the finals. Code and Marr will give the opposing team odds of “4-8 of 15" while Whitney and Allen will be “15™ back of scratch and give odds of “15." ‘Whitney and Allen and Code and Marr will probably come together in the final and a close contest will result. Whitney and Allen would “owe 15, while Code and Marr would receive “% of 15.” The Ladies’ Annex to the Park Tennis Club will hold a handicap singles tourna- ment on Monday. There will surely be a large entry list. The following ladies have already entered their names: Miss Bertha Gardner, Miss Eva Varney, Mrs. L. C. Bozarth, Miss Lulu Wegener, Miss Etta Langrehr, Miss Ethel Plppy, Mrs. R. N. Whitney, Mrs. Watson, the Misses Corrinne and Gretta Lindstrom, Vera and Anita Beyfuss, and Mrs. Hyde. Many others are expected to enter to-day, when the entries close. Miss Varney, Miss Gardner and Mrs. Hyde will play from scratch, while the others will receive han- dicaps. Lowell High School will hold two cham- pionship tournaments on the California Club courts on Monday and Tuesday. These will be the first events of the kind ever held by the school. The champion- ship singles will be held on Monday and the doubles on Tuesday. A great deal of interest is being displayed in the events, which will bring out ajll the best players in the school. Twenty“elght players have entered the singles and nine teams have entered the doubles. The drawing for the singles resulted as follows: Preliminary round—P. Monteagle vs. F. Tatum, G. Reading vs. Juda, J. Cassell vs. 8. Levy, L. Simon vs. E. Chapman, B. Wallace vs. M. Selig, J. Speyer vs. A, Beyfuss, W. Volkmann vs. S. Smith, D. Volkmann vs. P. Yost, M. Hauneton vs, H. Lisser, S. Morton vs. H. Jones, C. Kingwell vs. W. Forbes, H. Gray vs. A. Jones. First round—Upper half, H. Long vs. R. Page; lower half, S. Hirschmann vs. ‘W. Quinn. The Jones brothers, Beyfuss and Cas- sell, are the strongest players and one of them will probably win the championship. The drawing for the doubles resulted as follows: Preliminary round—Quinn and Long vs. A. Jones and Tatum, Wallace and Hirsch- mann vs. W. Volkmann and Parker. “First round—Upper half, Forbes and Yost vs. D. Volkmann and Horan, Chap- man and Maundrell vs. Kingwell and Smith; lower half, Converse and Reading vs. Beyfuss and Cassell. Cassell and Beyfuss are considered the strongest team in the tournament. The ladies’ championship of San Mateo will be contested for to-day on the courts of the Hotel Mateo. The tournament was won last year by Miss Ellen Page. The board of directors of the California Tennis Club met on Thursday evening and postponed the annual election of offi- cers until next Saturday. The last Sat- urday in September has always been elec- tion day at the club, but this year it was changed to the first Saturday in October. A nominating committee composed of Dr, Sumner Hardy, Frank Mitchell and Har- old Crowell was appointed. George F. Whitney, who was the cham- plon of the club for years and also the undefeated champion of the coast, was made an honorary life member of the club. CHARLES THALL CELEBRATES TWENTY-FIRST BIRTHDAY Charles Thall, press agent of the Alca- zar Theater, celebrated his coming of age last night at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Sam Thall, 714 Hayes street. The guests included members of the Alcazar and the Central Theaters. The home of Mr. and Mrs. Thall was beautifully decorated in honor of their nephew. Music was one of the features of the night and over the festive board young Thall was toasted and received some elaborate gifts from many of his close friends. Miss Florence Boberumtmmuhat:;mm-fitlld Miss Georgie Cooper several other young ladies jointly presented him with a ring with the inscription on the inside “When We Were Twenty-one.” From his uncle, Mr. Sam Thall, he also recetved a handsome present. the latter was Invincible.
