THE SAN fRANCIECO CALL, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 31, 1902. s o esoearochnoeeemvbremeies SPORTS OF THE RACECOURSE, THE FIELD AND THE PRIZE RING BONNIE LISSAK AT LONG ODDS WINS lN AN ORDINARY GALLOP Hungarian the Only Winning Choice at lnglesnde. Birkenruth First on Three Winners. FIVE dollar bill parleyed on the six winners at Ingleside vester- day would have made a million- aire out of a tramp, o it is need- less to say the favorites put in a very strenuous afternoon of it. The weather was clear and cool and the track a bit freckled, that is, it was fast and slow in spots. To the latter calise, may | be, coupled with poor racing luck, can be ascribed the downfall of the short priced ones. There was mo complaint about them not “trying” for each carried the | right sort of money,” as the betting | showed. Matin Bell was the first choice | that stopped to zwther pebbles on beach, being joined later by Stilicho (the offering of Walter Jennings), Ballroom Belle, whose downfall aged *“Frisco” vears, Azarine and Axminster. | rns had the honor of piloting g favorite, in Hungarign. dozen platers lined up in the riong sprint, with Matin | Bell favorite When it looked as | if the filly might gather the moss, Birken- | ruth dropped from the clouds with Bon- nie Lissak, a 30 to 1 shot, winning in a gallop. Katie Walcott, the well backed second choice, under Bullman's strong | riding, finished third. | On his second to Svivia Talbot some ‘days ago, when a 40 to 1 choice, Stilicho | carried a world of public.money at # to the odds falling to 9 to 10. The major portion of the paddock crowd, though, went to Jockey Club, forcing the books to rub from 20 down to 6. Very few got aboard, however, at 20. At the start Minder got the last named colt away in the jead and he won running away. Burns on Stilicho was kept busy beating Figar- don for the place. Glenarvon, from the Macdonough stable, showed considerable fpeed. Tommy Burns on Hungarian, a mild favorite for the mile selling affair, hustled the blocky chestnut away in front and was never headed. At the first turn Dr. Bernays was two lengths behind the field, and then, ridden the overland, finished a good second. Off better, he could scarcely have Jost. Bullman, astride All Green, took the show. The defeat of Balroom Belle, favorite | for the 2-year-old scramble, made any | number of bank rolls look as if a freight | train had passed over them. “Frisco” | Lind’s filly, with Burns in the saddle, stepped a merry quarter with Orosius, when both were ready and willing to re- tire. When Onyx II looked like a winner, Birkenruth nabbed him with Quatre, getting ‘the decision by half a length. Esherin, on which Frankie Reed did a funny stunt, dropped into the ‘show. A bit of ill luck at the barrier worked the downfall of Azarine, the 8 to 5 favor- ite for the six-furlong sprint foliowing. Wheeling at the start, Ransch brought the Azra filly along from back in the ruck, but at the close fell short a length of beating Velma Clark, a 6 to 1 chance, also piloted by Birkenruth. Malaspina ran third. Billy Randall's Axminster went to post favorite for the final mile and a fdr- long selling event, and was clearly out- clgssed. Rio Shannon, ridden by Carson, made all the running, looking the money until within fifty yards of the wire, where he was collared and downed a head by Hllowaho, the mount of Jay Ransch. NOTES OF THE TRACK. Latonia Jockey Club Stakes close to-morrow. | blanks can be had of Presiding Judge Hopper.

It he does mot ilke a favorite the price is nailed up. and one can buy all he wants. Two trains will accommodate visitors to Ingleside to-morrow, leaving the depot, Third and Townsend streeis, at 1 and 1:35. It is a fortunate thing for Frankie Reed, whi Rode Esherin, that his employer is not ‘‘Father Bili” Daly. His trousers would not have need- ©d dueting for the next two weeks to come.

Blessings on the man—or was it some god or demigod or wise woman?—that in- vented child-study, child-psychology and other boons! The facilities, all the mod- ern convenlences, so to speak, now at the service of the lucky children of to-day, are marvelous, all but incredible. For ex- ample, look mt grand old Indianapolis, the hoosier Paris. In the Indianapolis schools “the play of the children at recess time has been ‘organized.’ ” So many minutes for gymnastics, so many for ping pong, so many for tag and hoop, and so on. Every child plays on schedule time, has to live and play according to a time table. Three minutes with the bean bag, two and one-half at the skipping rope. ‘We are working, we are playing in a grand and wondrous time. It is one of the many regrets of all of us who are growing old that we cannot live to see the triumphs of civilization our prophetic souls foresee. Children have been brought up according to wrong mgthods. In the dark forward and abysm of time shines a great light. Our dim eyes behold auto- matic children. They are wound up like a clock. They are their own time punch and strike the hours, quarters and halves. They play eighteen different games in fifteen minutes, adjusting their own ma- chinery. Do you want 'em to sing? Press the accordion arrangement and vox hu- mana attachment in their midst if you please. Do you want to hear ’em name the Presidents, the Roman emperors, the prineipal rivers, mountains, metals? Con- nect the wires. These are the finest me- chanical toys ever exhibited Their works run down at 6:17 p. m. Then the little ones undress, fall into bed and cover themselves automatically. Mother can g0 off to the club. If there is any noise in the nursery, punish the offender next day by refusing to wind him up. Still, if he is big enough to be a !tem-wlnder what can you do? We, who foretold the automatic servant, now foretell the automatic child. Will he have as much fun as his predecessors? ‘Why not? Self-love will teach him to ap- preciate his mechanical make-up and his play will be much more efficiently *or- ganized” than is now possible, even in Indianapolis.—N., ¥, Sun, ————— +Late Shipping Intelligence.

A pecullar “glass disease” has broken out among the windows of York Cathedral. Some of the thirteenth and fourteenth century glass in the edifice has been removed in order to arrest the *dis- ease.” The outbreak Is ascribed to a fungus, but the exact nature of its at- tack upon the glass is not described. The glass appears to be perforated to such an extent that portions of the glass vield on the slightest touch. Moreover, the transparency of the glass has to a great extent disappeared—in short, the glass here and there exhibits no longer the properties of glass. It is evident that some kind of chemical action has been: established, due, perhaps, to the life and habits of a specific fungus. Organisms are known, of course, which assimilate silica, for the vast deposits of pure silica occurring in a very fine state of division in various parts of Germany consist of the scales of extinct dlatomaceae, The minute and beautifully formed spi- cules of the Spongidae and Radiolariae also consist of pure silica. Some years ago we drew attention to the disintegrat- ing powers possessed by certain species of bacterig which attack even the hardest cement with success. The gradual but sure crumbling of the cement used in water reservoirs has been traced to the operation of countless tiny organisms, The actlon was at first regarded as being due to the solvent property of carbonic acid and other substances commonly pres- ent in water. Uuder the action of the bacteria the cement slowly resolved into soft mud. The attack is made by the ubiquitous nitrifying organisms, the or- ganism which conducts to a large ex- tent the great work of purification throughout nature. The action ceases in the absence of nitrifiable material, and the view is that nitrous acid is produced ‘which acts upon the cement lining of the water reservoir. -Clearly the destructive potentialities of low forms of life are great both for good and for evil.—London Lancet.

Realize That They Have Been Mislead by Hot-Headed Leaders. Special Dispatch to The Calil. REDDING, Dec. 80.—Shasta County will soon be unionized so far as the mining camps are concerned. State Organizer Barbe to-day went to the Mount Shasta mine, west of Redding, to organize a miners’ union there. Unions will also be organized at Copleéy, Kennet, French Gulch, Harrison Guich and the unions at Delamar and Keswick will be strength- ened. President Donnelly and J. F. Lewis of the Western Federation are now at’ Delamar. The smeltermen and miners of Keswick and Iron Mountain seem to have at last realized that they are in the wrong and that they have been misled by a few hot headed leaders who sought notoriety at any expense. The strikers’ committee held a confer- ence with the citizens’ committee in Red- ding last night. President Moyer and T. J. Lewis represented the strikers and the Western Federation of Miners. The result of the conference has not been of- ficially made - public, but enough has leaked out to show conclusively that the strikers are now willing and anxious to return to their work on almost any sort of a settlement. They at first held out for recognition of the union, reinstate- ment of discharged men and many condi- tions, all in favor of their union. They are now anxious to return to work and the only condition they mention is that the company will not discriminate against union men. This may end the strike as scon as Manager Wright returns from San Francisco. MRS.

LOUIS, Dec. 30.—The western di- vision of the Amateur Athletic Union held its annual election here to-day. The following officers were elected: President, Henry C.

INCREASE IN PATENT OFFICE BUSINESS More Patents Issued Yearly Now Than in All First Twenty-Five Years. John W. Babson of the division of issue and gazette of the Patent Office is of a statistical turn of mind, and a few days ago after the issue of the gazette for the current date made a statement to a Star reporter of the business of the office within the past sixty-six years, the entire course of its existence. According to Mr. Babson's reckoning, and proven by the records of the office, the first,patent was issued July 28, 1836. The country was considered of some size and importance during the first twenty- five years following the establishment of the Patent Office and there many applica- tions were placed on file by inventors for protection for the product of their genius. Between 1836 and 1861, 26,642 patents were issued and placed an file. During the civil war there were many applications, but they necessarily feil off in number from the previous years. However, directly after the war the business of the office picked up and an enormous increase was noted from year to year. The following twenty-five years consti- tuted what has been in truth an inventive age. The work of making up the list of pat- ents issued during the past year is about completed by the ofiicials in charge of the office, and the result shows that from January 1, 1902, to the present date 27,136 patents have been issued and recorded to inventors of every civilized country of the globe. In other words more business has been done during the last eleven months and a half than was done in the first twenty-five years of the existence of the office. The enormous volume of pat- ent business is increasing every day and it is only a question of time when this will be one of the largest of the executive offices. The official Pn.tent Office Gazette for the current date is now ready for circulation. The book contains records of hundreds of inventions from all parts of the world.— ‘Washington Star. ——————————— A giraffe in a foreign zoo, suffering from 'a sore throat, has been wearing no less than thirty yards of red flannel round its neck.

The m: ity of the spectators at the ringside saw the blow land below the belt, although it is a ques- tion whether it was an intentional foul, Neill was carried to his dressing-room. He was attended by Drs. Apple and nus, who found evidence of injury. He was- unable to leave the building un- assisted, his seconds having to carry him to a carriage. Reilly had been playing for the body for some time, and, as Neill is short- waisted, the numerogus blows = which landed on him seemed dangerously low. It was apparently Rellly’s fight from the start. Neill, as usual with him, was slow to begin, having hardly opened up until the third round. Reilly was the ag- gressor from start to finish’ and landed some telling body blows, whieh were com- mencing to teil on Neill. Occasionally Neil! would be master of the lltuaflon. only to lose his advantage again. The spectators were in a measure pro- pared for a disappointing ending of the fight, as there were claims and counter- claims of fouls fn several rounds. Keilly was the first'to complain. Early in the sixth he writhed about in ap- parent agony. The referee motioned him to continue the contest and he did so at once. X . FOULS ARE CLAIMED. In the elghth and ninth rounds Neill and his friends claimed several fouls. One of these claims was ridiculous, as Neill was struck in the face and his head went back with a snap. This gave some of the spec- tators a chance to say the last blow was not a foul. ‘When the end came in the eleventh Reilly had been fighting viciously for Neill's body, and with the power behind the blows it seemed Nelll could not with- stand them' much longer. The fighting was all on the western side of the ring. Neill suddenly dropped his hand and sat on the lower rope of the ring in evident | distress. Referee Smith, who had been watching the fight intently, saw the blow which disabled Neill and, pointing to him as the winner, left the ring instantly. There was the usual uproar and confusion and the | P SCHWAB BUYS TWD STATUES Sculptor Gerome Com- pletes Artistic Models. PARIS, Dec. 30.—Jean Lcon .Geroms, the sculptor, has just completed the mod- els of the two statues which were or- dered by Charles M. Schwab for the decoration of his new house in New York. The models’ represent “‘Labor” and “Met- allurgical Sclence.” the first shows a robust workman vigorously handling a tool, with which he is stirring molten metal; the second is represented by a fe- male figure of the American type, with an animated face stamped with energy and intense thought.

It was the consensus of opinion that Reilly ‘would have won had the’ contest gone on. He took all the punishment Neill could administer and always came back fight- ing. The men just tilted the bar of the scales at 154 pounds at Harry Corbett’s when they weighed in during the afternoon. Reilly was in superb condition and looked the more rugged of the pair. His prin- cipal seconds were Tim McGrath and Jim- mie Lawlor. In Neill's corner were Harry Foley, Eddie Hanlon 'and Jim Roggett. ‘When the gong sent them together in the first round Reilly was at once the aggressor. He went -after Neill and there was a sharp mix-up and a clinch. In the breakaway Reilly nearly landed a hard right to the jaw. He came back with a left to the body. He drove Neill into a corner and landed repeatedly. Neill's face bore a serious look. He Jjabbed with his left to the head and in return recefved three hard lefts to the body. Neill missed a right to the head, but sent home a left jab. DRIVES NEILL INTO CORNER. In the second round NeHl sent a left to the jaw. Rellly landed a left to the body and two to the head. Neill was again cornered, but fought his way out, only to be worked into another corner at once. This brought on a slugging match, but no serious damage resulted. After a brief interval the slugging was resumed and continued until the gong stopped pro- ceedings. Neill showed to better advantage in the third round. He jabbed his left to the head twice and then sent his right across. This stirred up Reilly’s fighting blood and he started slugging. After they settled | down Neill jabbed him twice in the face and then slipped an uppercut inside his guard. Reilly sent a right to the body and received in return a left to the head and a right to the body. Reilly scored left and right to body. Reilly missed a left swing and a right. Neill appealed to the referee to stop Reilly from butting him. NEILL RUNS AWAY. The fourth was Reilly’s round. He opened _proceedings with a left to the body. Neill came pack with a right to the body. -Reilly si red Neill with a Fight. across the ring. Rellly followed up his advantage with a right to the body and a right uppercut. Neill then came back .and there was a slugging match all over the ring. At the end of the round Neill was running away. When proceedings opened in the fifth round Neill ‘jabbed with his left and then landed the hardest blow he had delivered up to that time. It was a right to the head. The blow was a trifle high or that would have ended the fight. Reilly was game and came back fishting. He sent a left to the head and two lefts to the body. Nelll backed away for a time and then landed his right -to the head twice. In a clinch Reilly uppercut him twice and then sent his left to the face twice. The early part of the sixth round was a slugging match. When this ended Reilly claimed a foul, which was not al- lowed, and he continued fighting. Reilly ‘was dazed for a while, but he finished the round in excellent shape. The eighth round was a bad one for Neill. He was in distress at the close. The ninth was all in Reilly’s favor. The tenth was even, and then came the unsatisfactory end. Tommy Cox took the place of Louie Long in the bout with Frank McConneli. The latter went at him in a workmanlike manner and had Cox in distress before two rounds went by. It seemed the end would come at any time. Cox showed remarkable gameness, coming back round after round for the scverest of punishment. He stayed the limit of the ten rounds. The decision went to McConnell. The bout between George Fuller and Jimmie Quinn ended in the third round. It was a clumsy fight. Quinn was | knocked out with a right to the jaw. By a coincidence both landed rights to the jaw at the same time, The steam was in Fuller’s blow and his man went out. ——— ) Billy Rotchford Beats Madden.
