THE SAN IRAXNCISCO JALL, WEDNESDAY. CORRIGAN TAKES THE HANDICAP, WHILE KENILWORTH RUNS THIRD Ransch Finishes First on Four Occasions---Sleeping Child Hears the Alarm at 50 to 1---Gaviota in Better Luck. ” = | MONG other things that happened\ 2t Ingleside yesterday, and there | were several, Kenilworth was | beaten. The hendicapper asked him to carry 132 pounds in the six and@.a half furlong handicap and he couldn’t do f§t. Harry brown sprinter's companion, Illowaho, out | with him and although the latter is not partial to slushy going, the books started | off by laying 6 to 5 against the pair. | Flush of Gold is no mudlark, either, and | the smart ones, remembering the finc rages run by Corrigan agalnst Lucien Ap- pleby at Chicago, unlimbered on the Burng & Waterhouse colt at to L. was good judgment, for after T nad led to the stretch, with The Fretter at his saddle girths, Ransch, on Corrigan, walked By them, winning under restraint. Tommy Knight kept at work on Kenil- worth, but could not prevent The Fret- ter from beating him out for the place. gan was favorite.

Still the to 1 hot, with Johnny Daly in the saddle and played ¢ @ select few, beat the favorite, Ster- | g Towers, two lengths for the seven fugfong race, second on the card. Mac Ana might have won but for some inter- ference before tbe streteh was reached. Little Hewitt on the two-year-old Guica and 20 to 1 in the-betting had the pening race won and then threw it way. He Qid nmot want 1o win too far off, and while thinking it over Birkenruth | astride the 8 to 1 chance Bogus Bill downed him a head Vohicer, the favor- fte, with Burns in the saddle, ran third. Favored by all the luck imaginable Amasa captured the third purse. The aged sprinter went to the post favorite, but Oro A - was thirty minutes the best, for after getting away poorly and running around his field he lost out by a short head only. It was merely a case ¢f Ransch outfinishing Conuell. Onyx II disposed of Jim Gore for “the show. No doubt some ill Juck at the start con- tributed to the downfall of Galanthus, the 3 to 2 favorite for the mile and sev- enty yard selling affair. The first choice was buffeted about, and the ground lost on the first turn he couid not make p. Ransch, on Artilla, lay second to Antolee until the.stretch was reached. whe: he went to the front, scoring hands down. Tommy Burns had the leg up on an- other favorite in the final six furlong run for two-year-olds. Arabo closed at i1 to 10, and ran third. Gaviota as- sumecd the front position in the stretch, winning without effort from Gold Van. NOTES OF THE TRACK. Starter Dick Dwyer will be here the latter part of the week, and will probably send the | fieids off on Monday next. Lewitt, who rode Guida, told the judges he didn't want to win “too far oft.” He dldn’t. Page third line from the bottom would vesa: Take the young man to the woodshed. Little Frank Reed, who rode Bd Lilburn in the opening race, had a fortunate escape from injury when the two-year-oid fell at the head of the stretch. The youngster pluckily rode Kermit in the race following. “Dell” Fountain, the Idaho plunger, took about $4000 cut of the ring over the win of Sleeping Child. Inaugurator was one of the many good thinge that failed to come through.

Hardly a grevhound in the | stake escaped a punishing trial. Soon | after reaching the field a hare was sight- and the first pair of coursers were re- ed. The course was a good one, though ided, and whetted the appetite of the | spectators. | In the fourth course the excitement was | at fever heat, for nearly every one on the field had ed his judgment liberall Mickey Free, the Sacramento youngste was played to a standstill | tingent from the Capital City to 4 Pasha Kennels' May Hempstead. Two to one looked good to the San Francisco | leashmen, and they were still betting when the dogs were slipped. Mickey scored the first six points, getting the turn Dby favor when May got in for a straight ten. Mickey picked up a couple more when the Pasha Kennels’ represenlatlve,i working like a demon, ran down the hare | and scored the first kill of the meeting. The next course put the wise ones in bad humor. Cascade was their favorite, and they responded liberally, giving 4 to 1| that he could outpoint Cuinea. Cascade ran up eight points, and it looked an easy victory for him, when he allowed Guinea to’ get in for six and was placed for two. Guinea, taking possession, | worked the game cleverly, and scored an | even dozen with a kill to his credit. This | gave him the course. Lily Wright won | a one-sided course from Tommy Rex. | She made many friends by her good work. The faster the hare ran the farter Lil drew away from her opponent. The wise | ones figure Lily Wright and May Hemp- | stead have the best chance to land the | stake. 5 Regina R, in a double bye ‘with Bluckl Flush, started a stray hare, and despite | the efforts of several horsemen, kept on | | | 1 | | fall she had not returned.

Richard Weiss, lighthouse keeper on Yerba Buena Island, came near being drowned shortly after 6 o'clock Monday night. He came to the city in a small sloop to obtain some medicine for his sick wife and started from Clay-street wharf on his return trip. Shortly after getting out into the stream and heisting his sall a swell produced by a passing ferry steamer capsized ‘Weiss’ boat. ‘Weiss managed to get hold of the keel of the overturned boat, which was rapidly drifting up the bay on the flood tide, when the current swung the craft in toward Mission-street wharf. Weiss shouted for help as the sloop came in toward the wharf. His cries were heard by Special Watchman Frank Prid- eaux, who climbed down and caught the sail and then adjusted a rope around Weiss. He then managed to drag the'ex- hausted man on the wharf and uslsted: him to the Harbor Hospital. Weiss was suffering from chills and ex- haustion, and though not in danger it was thought advisable for him to remain in the ‘hospital for the night.

The betting has been light up to the present time. A heavy commission on either man would change the odds. Irwin made such a brilliant showing in his fight with Billy Gardner that he gained many admirers. He has trained at Croll's Gardens, Alameda. and is fit for a severe struggle. He has gained in speed without 10ss in hitting power. Clifford is at Blanken's, where he is be- ing trained by Tommy Cox. He seems to have no doubt as to whom the victory will rest with. He has a reputation for stand- ing punishment. When he lands his op- ponent usually goes to the mat. He has scored a succession of victories in his short ring career, defeating, among oth- ers; Dal Hawkins and Jack Wade. If Clifford wins easily to-morrow nig he will be in line for a match with Jim* my Britt. The preliminary bouts will be fast ones, Bobby Johnson meeting Louis Cassaigne, while the Dixie Kid will meet Mike Mc- Clure. Each will go rounds. New Orleans Race Results.

Tittle reported the assault and robbery to Policemen Cullinane and MeQuaide, and with him they searched the neigh- borhood, and Tittle pointed out Patrick J. Murphy, 208 Shipley street, as one of the men who robbed him. Murphy told | the officers that Fred Eksward, who works| with him at a merry-go-round on Folsom street, nad told him he was go- ng to thrash Tittle and later had said he had done it. Eksward was arrested and he and Murphy were locked up in the “tanks™ pending further investigation. Tittle was sent to the Central Emergency Hespital for repairs. George Snyder, § ported to the police e | ing that two men had robbed him of $0 in a saloon at 522 Pacific street. Police= men Skain and Holmes went to the sa- loon and after making inguiry arrested Fred Howard, the bartender, and Hazel Kellie. Snyder said that after being rob- bed he complained to Howard, who or- dered him out of the saloon. John W. Noonan was later arrested and identifled by Snyder. He was booked for grand lar- ceny. Adolph Krie, Kearny street, re- s yesterday morn- 3355 Twenty-sixth street, reported to the police that Monday after- noon about 5 o'clock he was walking along Mission street, and at Fifth street four boys accosted him and ene of them asked to his pocketbook, which he carried in his hand. He did so and the boy quickly opened the pocketbook, ab- stracted $75 and ran away. The police do not place much credence on Krie's story, as some weeks ago he made a sim- ilar complaint about boys stealing money from him at Fifth and Shipley streets, but they are making an investigation. see BARNHART'S SINGING FEATURE OF EVENING He Renders Hungarian Songs at Concert of Loring Club at Na- tive Sons’ Hall. ee of the Fiungarian songs of Kor- bay, rendered in delightfully artistic fash- jon by H. H. Barnhart, were the feature of the Loring Club concert, given last night at Native Sons’ Hall. Mr. Barn- hart is essentially a “picture singer,"” pos- sessing In distinguished aegree the facul- ty of dramatizing his songs. He presents | both mood and picture with remarkable truth, with keenest sympathy, and with perfect facility. One thinks little of tech- nique In the connection, but the singer’s voice lends itself admirably to his con- ceptions, and is under excellent control. One may take exception to Mr. Barn- hart's enunciation, which is not of the clearest, but in vocal, sympathetic and dramatic qualities he is a singer distinet- 1y tp be reckoned with In local musical circles. His songs were “Play on, Gyp- | sv.” ‘“Where the Tisza's Torrents,” and “Had a Horse.” In the club numbers were included some Christmas carols that were much en- joyed by the large audience. The best of these was “Cantique de Noel” of Adam, in which the club was assisted by Mrs. Lillian Roeder Apple. Mrs. Apple's pure soprano was pleasantly heard in three so- los, and others assisting were Dr. J. F. Smith, A. A. McCurda, E. C. Boyesen, W. C. Stadtfeld and W. Nielsen. A small or- chestra led by B. Jaulus assisted in the accompaniments, and Miss Ruth Loring presided at the piano.
