EBrilliancy, a red greyhound puppy, by the English winner, Fortuna Favente, wade her debut yesterday in the open stake at Union Coursing Park.and proved @ surprise 1o the wise ones. She was drawn against Tyrone Prince and the lat- ter was installed a 1 to 5 favorite. Brilliancy showed the speed of the pair, leadmg to the hare. There was a sharp exchange in scoring and she won the trial Ly % to 2. This new candidate for honors is owned by J. F. Freeman of Rocklin end much is expected of her. - The same cwner also started Rene, another promis- ing young hound. He defeated Melrose cleverly by a score of 9 to 6. Scme of the Fresno fivers must have been pressed into service, as there were an unusual number of long trials. Many of the hares escaped. Four courses lasted twou minutes. The winners which had the severe running were Flower of Gold, Kanagawa, Cronin's Wild Tralee and lizlfmoon. Kanagawa upset the calculations of the speculators by beating Sempronius, the 1 t0 5 choicé.

Jennings, wearing his white hose and hood and ridden by the redoubtable Tommy Burns, cap- tured the rich New California Jockey Club Futurity stakes yesterday at Ingle- side racecourse. The gross valuation of the purse was $16254. To the subscrip- tions paid in by the nominations the New California Jockey Club added $8750. -The | distance was one hundred feet more than six furlongs. Seven other superbly bred ones disputed the right of the strapping black fellow to the long end “of the richest 2-year-old prize ever contested for in the West, but it was a useless task. He won with his rider in the posture of the anchorman on a tug-of-war team. In his wake followed handled by Minder, and then followed Organdie, the latter biegsed with a deal of ill racing luck. The day was an ideal one for sport pur- poses, even If tne track was a bit slow, and the race attracted a large attend- ance. It was fifth on the programme. ,As Trainer Walter Jenngings had made no effort to keep the prowess of Krishna un- der cover, the latter's pnenomenal work- out on Thursday, when he stepped .six furlongs on a muddy track far out from the rail in 1:16%, caused the Rancho del | to be installed favorite at odds of 8 to 5.

The Mac- donough pair, Organdie and Orfeo, grand- daughter and grandson respectively of the mighty Ormonde, Wad a host of fol- | lowers, the stable ruling a strong second choice. The recent races of the Burns & Waterhouse candidate, Polonius, had not | | been at all flattering, still he had J.| | Ransch in the saddle, and the 7 to 1 chalked "about him was not raised to speak of. Patsy McCue was carded to ride Syi via Talbot and Tommy Knight the other Schreiber entry, Deutchland, did not ap- pear to be in great demand, drifting from 3% to 7.

The Lowell High School football eleven have been declared the champions of the Academic Athletic League for 1%2. The trephies, gold footballs, suitably inseribed | and available as watch fobs, were dis- | tributed yesterday. | The delay in making the award was due | to a protest having been lodged against James B. Kidd of Lowell by the Berke- ley High School team. After investigat- ing the charge that Kidd was not a reg- ular student at Lowell, E. B. Gould, chalrman of the football committee, re- ported there was no foundation for the c:'mrga and that Kidd was entitled to play. ; The Lowell players showed their confl- dence in Kidd by electing him captain of next yvear's team. They feel they have been deprived of some of the glory of :.helr victory owing to the Berkeley pro- est. ————— Vicious Boy Arrested. . Frank Boudel, 14 years of age, was ar- rested yesterday morning by Policemen W. D. Scott and R. Barry and booked at the City Prison on a charge of throwing cerrosive acid at Charles Willmot, an- other boy, A warrant for his arrest was sworn out by Mrs. 'Clara McGeough, 7 Dykeman place, Willmot's mother, before Police Judge Fritz on September 24, and the police have been looking for Boudel since. Willmot and two other boys were playing in Dykeman place when Boudel came upon the scene and squirted the acld at Willmot, so it is alleged, burning his clothes and neck.. Boudel has been arrested several times. —_— New College Incorporates. The Medical and Surgical Society of the State of California was incorporated yes- terday, The directors are Drs. C. A.

PR from Oscar Tolle, with Katherine Ennis, a 30 to 1 shot. None of the other events wore such an open look as the Futurity course sprint, which followed. Any one of the nine plat- ers could be figured a chance and 5 to 2 could be ahd about Mocerito, the fa- vorite. Ransch made a good showing with the old mare, though failing to get any portion of the money. She was headed soon after the start by Burns, sstride Maggile Felix, a 4 to 1 chance, and the St. Louis mare won rather handily at the wire. Ned Dennis, a 9 to 1 chance, snatched the plate from Golden Cottage by a neck. Troy dodged the issue after contributing all of his reserve speed. Jimmy Coffey’s greyhound, Evea G, made another runaway race of it in the mile and a sixteenth selling affair. Agaln ridden by Apprentice Reed, the flying filly went out in the lead as usual, almost los- ing Bessie McCarthy and the other four starters. Hard ridden by “Bill" Waldo, Bessie downed Diderot nine lengths for the rlace, which in a measure assuaged her grief at defeat. g HEAVY WAGERING. Five started in the mile and seventy- yard bhandicap. A carload or more of coin was unloaded on Corrigan, the top-weight, at 6 to 5, carrying 119 pounds, and the Burns & Waterhouse colt showed to be no piker. Ransch made all the running with him, and with nothing left at the end and the throttle thrown wide open, ar- rived at the depot on schedule time, a car length before Burns, on Vesuvian. Blow to get under way and at distance toe short for her, Marque finished a good thira. - If the books “bumped” Sad Sam and | Trene Lindsay, first and second choice re- spectively for the elosing six-furlong scramble, they must have made a Klen- dike clean-up. As Sad Sam and Irene were busy fighting it out through the stretch they left room for Huachuca, piloted by Birkenruth, to get through on the rail. George Baldwin's colt scored a ciever yictory by less than length. Sam outgamed Irene, securing the place by more than a length. i i SRR NOTES OF THE TRACK. The victory of Krishna was a most popular one, and Walter Jennings nearly lost an arm receiving the congratulations of his friends. However, this is not the first good race horse Trainer Jennings has sent to the post. Tommy Burns said after the stake race he never had any doubt as to the ultimate result. At the head of the stretch Krishna tried to run out, ‘but,’” remarked Tommy, “I got a halt Nelson on him and I guess he went through all right, didn't he?’ Jay Ransch fell down a trifle yesterday, rid- ing but one winner, Corrigan. Birkenruth on Huachuca rode a well-judged race, showing something of his old-time form. ‘When Sad Sam and Irene Lindsey swung wide on the stretch turn “Birk" did not overlook the chance. An outsider bid Evea G up from $500 to $1500. Jimmy Coffey retained his mare with the usual $5 bid. Bessie McCarthy finished sec- ond, and Arnold & Co. generously returned to Coffey their portion of the run-up money. Battiste, the colored rider, left for New Or- leans last evening, where he will ride the horses being raced at the meeting there by Arnold & Co. Jockey Harry Cochran and his father depart for New York to-morrow evening. The selling-plater Searchlight dropped dead on the track while being galloped yesterday morning. Searchlight had enough ‘‘dope” in- jected into him at the Napa fair last summer o have crossed the divide longz ago. Twenty books laid odds, an increase of two over last cut-in. Charley Gray, who rode.for Egyedi Bros. in Austria last season, is home again, and viewed the races from the ground yesterday. Charley won_forty-three races out of 208 mounts and finished second on more than forty occasions. He can do 109 pounds and will accept mounts here. Johnny Bullman will be in the saddle again to-morrow, his term of suspension having ex- Dpired. Robert Lloyd, a well-known New York book- maker, is a recent arrival. Huachuca, winner of the last race, was bid up from $800 to $1200 by Billy Magrane. George Baldwin retained the colt. i Starter Dick Dwyer dropped In from the Eastern country just in time to see the Fu- turity won. After a spell of excellent work Jake Holtman will take a rest, and to-morrow Dwyer will dispatch the flelds. e New Orleans Race Results.

Chesbro Twirls ‘High Grade Ball and Gets Perfect Support. The polished balltossers of the National League ‘did the little thrashing act for the third time yesterday afternoonm, but they had to hustle some before the glory was all their own. The Oakland cham- pions were on the boards with the goeds and had their brothers from the East wondering some all the time. Score, 2 to 0. It hardly looked right to see a team that has been doing such low-down work for over a week jump into the running as Oakland did yesterday afternoon. Every man on the team was there with ginger and life. The fielders took cvery thing that happened to skip the dia- mond and would have played an errorless game but for a muff by Julie Streib of a perfect throw from Devereaux. The big leaguers passed out the same assortment over again and gave a grand exkibition of how the game should be played. Not a single miscue marred their work In the nine rounds of play. They were fast on the bases and hit the ball on the nose just in time to score the runs necessary to land the game. Happy Jack Chesbro, the cream of the National League box artists, was on duty for ‘the Nationals and amply demon- strated just how he can throw curves in a scientific manner. He is not a whirl- wind like Donovan, but he has an easy delivery and managed to let the natives down with three scattered hits, which did no damage in the run eolumn. Southpaw Cooper for Oakland was near- ly as effective as his brother artist. He had good speed, curvés and control all the time. He, too, might have scored a shut- out but for two lucky scratch singles that arrived just in the nick of time. Little Mohler at second fielded in his best form and cut off three safe hits by his fast, accurate work. Brick Devereaux aiso performed well and in fact the whole team played just as good ball as any big league organization could possibly have done. In the second spasm Irwin hit a Texas leaguer over short, but was forced at sec- ond by Crawford, Ritchie advanced Crawford to second on an out and Cross walked. Then Kahoe sent a swift one out to center fleld. The ball took a false beund over Walters’ head and Crawford tallied, when he should have been thrown out &t the plate. The run getting business was quiet till the fifth. Then Irwin hit one over third, and, like the other smash, it bounded bad- ly, going past Dunleavy. Irwin went around to third. He scored a moment later on Crawford’s scratchy single that 'was just too high for Cooper to reach and throw Irwin out at the plate. The score: OAKLAND. AB. R. BH. SB. PO. A. B.
