The Angels appeared to have the big end of the score securely bottled up until the last inning, when a poke through the infield from the bat wielded by “Chicago” Willlams did the winning act for the locals.

High Class Field to Sport Silk in Thanksgiving Day Handicap. —_—— To-day will mark the beginning of the second week of winter racing at the pic- turesque Ingleside track. The past week was remarkable for the success of an unusual number of public choices. The bookies lost heavily to the week and un- less indications prove false several of the layers now on the line will not cut in again Tuesday. George Rose, perhaps, is the largest loser of the meeting, while Max Frank, with the New York Club, is probably a close second. Rose lost a ton of money Saturday by the winning of The Major. Max Frank was $1900 to the bad when he figured up his sheet at the close of business Saturday night. “Eng- lish Bill” Jackman, Barney Schreiber, Virginia Carroll, Caesar Young, in fact all the big bookies, find their balance on the wrong side of the ledger. Horses have been running exceptionaily true to form and this fact accounts for the bookmakers’ losses. With the close of the racing season at Lakeside and Latonia many new stables will come to the coast. The New Orleans meeting, which will open on Thanksgiving day, will get a number of horses from these tracks, but San Francisco.will get its share. The New Orleans folk are making all sorts of inducements to owners to ship to the Crescent City track, but the managers of the California tracks are offsetting these offers with more sub- stantial ones. There need be no fear that there will be a dearth of good horses here this winter. As a matter of fact the tracks around the bay are al- ready pressed for stall room. Some of the Arnold string of horses which ar- rived Friday from the East will start at Ingleside this week. / he feature of the week will be the Thanksgiving day handicap, at one mile and a furlong, in which a high-class fleld is carded. Amcng the entries are such well-known performers as Yellowtail, Formero, Miracle II, Joe Frey, Corrigan (winner of the Inaugural handicap), Felix Bard, Autolight, Sombrero, Homestead, Varro, The Fretter, Imperious, St. Sever, Watercure and others. Sombrero, from the stable of Green Morris, will doubtless be the favorite. A record-breaking crowd is expected ‘at the track, providing of ccurse the weather be pleasant. President Willlams and the racing of- ficials are looking forward to an excep- tionally good year. Everything seems auspicious, the attendance throughout the past week having been large. President Williams has done everything in his power to maintain the local turf at a high standard. e S NOTES OF THE TRACK. “Sandy’” McNaughton man at Ingleside, Major, “‘Daggie” Smith's recent pur- is pronounced the best two-year-old shown this season, v Muss ran a grand race Saturday and hard to beat from now on.

The experts are at a loss to find a conclusive line on the relative ability of the rival lightweights, none of them 'apparently having been able to do so. Britt has a large following of men who count on his great vitality, coupled with his hitting power, gameness and aggres- siveness to land him a winner. He has rot been extended in any of his profes- sional fights up to the present time, .so his true form has not been brought out. He has the most implicit confidence in his own system of attack and defense and gives no thought to the possibility of de- feat. His training has been altogether L e e e e S R ] EXCITING HANDBALL IN OLYMPIC TOURNEY George James Defeats Henry Russ After Three Fast Games. The numerous spectators who witnessed the handball games at the Olympic Club yesterday afternoon had the pleasure of enjoying some exciting sport. Willlam Fitzgerald, ,the champion of the world, played an exhibition game with Al Hamp- ton. The game was fast and both play- ers did some excellent work. Fitzgerald was too fast for the Olympic crack. His use of both hands with equal facility ex- cited considerable applause. . The most exciting game in the tourna- ment series was between George James and Henry Russ. his superior strength and his better con- dition. Both men were applauded again and again for their fine playing. In the the score stood #—10. At that point Russ called for a new ball, which proved live- ly. Russ tossed out and the final score .was 17—21. In the second game it took James several minutes to become accus- tomed to the lively ball, but when he did his superior condition told and he won with the score of 21—16. Condition and strength told in the final contest, which went to James by a score of 21—7. In the match between Charles Leighton and Tim Fitzpatrick both men played hard all the time. Leighton, however, cutplayed his opponent and won both games. Scores, 21—15 and 21—16. Tom Powers defeated John Tait, 2117 and 21—9. Powers used both hands in swip- ing the ball. Tait evidently was not in condition. James and Russ, who put up such spir- ited games yesterday, will in all probabil- ity meet again Sunday in the final con- test. Russ is pitted against Curley for Wednesday night of 'this week, and if he wins, and he probably will, he will be eligible to play James for the champion- ship. Rosenfeld beat Wegener, 21-18, 21-10. ‘Wegener's hand failed him early in the game, but he bluckily continued playing. —_——te New Century Wheelmen Win. The New Century Wheelmen defeated the California Cyecling Club team yester- day in a fifty-mile relay race on the Hay- wayds road. In the last relay Eldridge of the California Club fell and spofled what migh. have been a close finish. C. L. McEnerney of the Cailfornia Asso- clated Cyclists’ racing board managed the race. The teams were made up as fol- lows: California—Duttke, Fenelius, Elliott, Ringrose, Eldridge. New Century—Shaw, Spellman, Berbe- rich, A. Holle, Greeninger, Balart. P —————— Train Robbers Elude Pursuers. DAVENPORT, Iowa, Nov. 23.—It looks to-night as though the Rock Island train robbers who successfully blew open the safe of the train held up just outside this city yesterday morning have made good their escape. A sensation was created to-day by the report that the bandits were surrounded in a cornfield near Buchanan. A speclal train with a Sher- iff’s posse on board was made up here and started for Buchanan. Word was re- ceived that the men had been captured before the train arrived, but the prisoners proved to be a gang of hobos and not the men wanted. s Beaton, James won because of | first game James led his opponent untll | are six other t LIGHT-WEIGHT BOXERS AND REFEREE WHO WILL JUDGE THEIR BOUT, KELLY APPEARS FOR LAST TIME AS AN AMATEUR 3 | | l | ! 1 I | “TOOTHPICK" ASPIRES TO HEAVY-WEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP HONORS.

AMERICAN-BRITISH TEAM WINS FOOTBALL MATCH Goal Made in the Last Minute of Play ‘Decides Keenly Fought Association Game. The American-British Rifles’ assoclation Tootball team played a close and interest- ing match against thé Independents’ elev- en on the ground at Twelfth and Madison streets, Oakland, yesterday afternoon, winning five goals to four. The Rifles won the toss and elected to défend the north goal. The Independents started vith a rush and scored two goals in short order. The Rifles, howcver, soon equaled the score, and before half-time was called had three goals to their credit. ‘After the interval the Rifles kicked off, but the ball was at once sent back and Churchill scored the third goal for the Independ- ents. Play was then even until a penalty kick was glven to each side, Chambers scoring a goal for the Rifles and Peterson one for the Independents. Score, four all. The Rifles then obtained a free kick on a foul, Forrest placing the ball right in the mouth of the goal. As the ball passed between the posts it touched the goal- keeper, and the whistle was blown to .| mark the end of the match. The Rifles thus:won .the match in:the last minute by ane goal.

TOURS, France, Nov, 2.—A viclent riot broke out this evening in the Alcazar Mu- sic Hall, owing to the singing of anti-mili- tary sonigs. A party of officers belonging to the garrison of Tours who were oc- cupying the stalls hissed the songs, while the public. in the gallery applauded and threw missiles at the officers, wounding several of them. The occupants of the galieries then invaded the floor of the hall, where a free fight en- sued, the police finally clearing the building. An anti-military demonstra- tion in the street followed;, a crowd escorting the offending singers home and singing revolutionary songs. The rioters attempted to mob all the officers they met on the way, but a squad of police and in- fantry succeeded in protecting the offi-. cers and order finally was restored, o S L FORT WAYNE, Ind, Nov. 23.—Dr. Otto Slemon, professor ‘of Latin at Concordia Col- lege, the Lutheran' institute of learning in this clty, took his life to-day. had suf- fering from mnervous prostration, WORLD'S RECORD | BREMER FIRST - FOR PALO ALTO| ON MAN TARGET Great Greyhound Wins His Twentieth Big Stake. pBa S A Shows His Remarkable Speed in the Final Course With Cloudburst. ——— Eugene Geary's fast greyhound Palo Alto added more luster to his reputation yesterday at Union Coursing Park by win- ning the special stake. This makes the twentieth stake which this grevhound has placed to his credit, a record never ap- proached by any dog of his breed in any part of the world since coursing became a sport. In the deciding course he met Cloud- burst, which he led to the hare by more than twelve lengths. She was placed for three turns, and for a time it seemed Palo Alto had ceased to try and might be beaten. Palo Alto finally killed and won by a score of 7 points to 3. The big black ahd white son of Emin Pasha narrowly escaped defeat in the third round in a course with White Hat. As is his habit, when the hare ran up the fleld he showed championship form. The hare broke back and Palo Alto would not try for a time coming down hill. He finally joined in near the grandstand and scored enough points to save himself from defeat, winning by a score of 8 to 6. Reta S, the overnight favorite for the stake, had hard coursing, which spoiled any chance she might have had of win- ning. She finally went out to Cloudburst in the third round. The open stake was won by Dorothy M from Mary Ann by a score of 10 to 3.

Equals Best Previous Record on the Shell Mound Range. Many Well Known Marks- men Take Part in the Competition. The closing day at Shell Mound Park brought out a large number to take part in the different contests held under the auspices of various societies. The day was a pleasant one. The moisture in the ground caused by late rains prevented the glare and shimmer on the targets which so often obtains on bright days. As a con- consequence the day was an ideal one and good scores resulted. The Nord- deutscher Club held its semi-annual prize shoot, bringing together many of the best marksmen of the State. The Golden Gate Rifie and Pistol Club held its monthly contests. The San Francisco Schuetzen Verein took part in a monthly bullseye shoot. The Red Men’s Schuetzen Club held a turkey shoot, monthly medal and buliseye contest. The Germania Club members were kept busy at the continu- ous prize shoot of the soclety, while Com- panies C and G, First Infantry Regiment, held State and monthly medal shootings. The prize shooting of the Nordduetscher Club was held on the man target, which represents the upper portion of a man's body and is divided into vertical lines of one-half inch each. The center line repre- sents 20 points and the last lines on each side 1 point each. This is one of the hardest targets on which to make a good score. The result of the competition shows the marksmen were at their best. The best possible score is 30 points. The scores: 2=l 79; F. P.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2.—With imposing ceremonies, to which extraordinary sple dor was lent by the presence of ma gorgeously vested ecclesiastics, of t members of the Russian Embassy in bril- liant uniform and of a guard of Cos- sacks, fully armed, the new Russian Orthodox Church of St. Nicholas was con- Secrated to-day by Archbishop Tikhon of San Francisco, assisted by Archimandate Rafael, the Arabian abbot, and fifte priésts. The church was thronged, great being the crush that the guard at the door were swept aside by the crowds that pressed forward for admission. Count Cassini, the Russian Embassa- dor: Nicholas Ladygensky, the Russian Consul General in New York, with their suites, and other Russian diplomatic and consular officials, stood at. the left of the altar throughout the services. The ceremonies closed with a benedic- tion by the Archbishop and the procla- mation of the long life to the Czar, the imperial house of Russia, the President of the United States, the Most Holy Synod and the founders and buflders of the church. Archbishop Tikhon delivered an address in English. After the services Archbishop Tikhor held a receotion in the residence of the rector, where he bestowed his blessing upen many members of the Russian ghurch, includings the Countess Cassini. Following the reception a luncheon was tendered to the Russian diplomatic and consular officlals, the visiting Russian clergy and members of the Russian col- ony. Toasts were drunk to the Czar, to Russia and to the Archbishop. n
