The stake, which was feurth on the card and worth $2040 to the first horse, §500 to second and $300 tc the third, drew out but four starters. Siddons, the hero of last year's race, was compelled to re- ro and keen was the disappointment over However, it was no dull and dreary af- fair that was witnessed. After sending Rio Shannon for all the buckboard rec- ords on the county road Jimmy Coftey concluded he was fit and the son of El Rio y was announced as an added starter after breakfast yesterday morn- name not appearing on the pro- gramme. His weight, under the condi- tions, was 116 pounds. Billy Cotton start- ed two, Learoyd and Star Cotton. COTTON DUO FAVORITES. With a hurried preparation, Artilla, picking up 111 pounds, represented “Bfll" Carroll. Opinion 2s to the result was varied and this made the betting good. The Cotton duo opened at even money, but when the play on Artilla strength- ened, cutting her odds from 2 to 8 to 5, the price about Learoyd and Star Cot- ton reccded to that figure. Jimmy Cof- fey seemed none too confident, and 11 to 5 was laid against Shannon at the close, making him- the outsider. No records were in danger of being smashed ‘at any stage, stil the pace was fair. Lewls, on Learoyd, went out to make the running when Dick Dwyer released the barrier, trailed by his stablemate, with the other two contenders skulking about far in the rear. For three mfles there was no mo- ticeable change In positions, then Learoyd began to display signs of distress and Yumwmy Knight got ready ‘with Rio Shannon to vhange his moorings. Lee Jackson made e like move with Artilla, alacrity. When pointed for the wire the last time Rio Shannon had crawled up on equal terms with Learoyd, and then began a drive. Knight had too much in e reserve though, and Rio ‘Shannon won easily by six lengths in 7:28%. About ten lengths behind Learoyd, Artilla finjshed @ tired third. Cotton was beaten off;, All conditions were favorable. Warm, summery weather served to thaw the cripples out, the track was fast and had assumed its accustomed resiliency ana the fields were above critism. Although Rapid Water and Organdle were the only public favorites to be returned winners, there could be no complaint about shabby performances, for the finishes were all of the dingdong sort, the four-mile num- ber the exception. The betting was fast and furious and the ring had a profitable day. Sallor at 15 to 1. Grafter, another 15 to 1 outsider, Rosarie, against which 20 was laid, and Hainault, also quoted at 15, kept the surprise party merry. MORRIS’ COLT WINS EASILY, Ivy Powell started by landing Sallor, a 15 to 1 shot, winner of the opening seven- furlong run. Declaimer, ridden by Don- nelly and played down from 12 to 8 made all the running and was only collared and beaten a neck In the last few strides. Donee, another outsider, finished third. Cougar, the favorite, was sore and began falling back from the start. ‘When betting first opened on the four and a half furlong scramble for 2-year- olds, Toledo, the Burns & Waterhouse entry, was installed favorite at 6 to 5. Later on Green Morris sent in a good fat commission to be placed on Rapid Water, which had the effect of sending the bay colt to the post favorite. There was noth- ing to it frem the start. Rapid Water, with Bonner in the saddle, outbroke and outfooted his company, winning almost easily in 0:54)4. Military Man ran a good third, behind Toledo. Speedy Organdie from the stable of “Frisco” Lind, had a pleasant trip in the five and a half furlong purse sprint, for which Money Muss, Peter J. and Double Six were among the named starters. Reed had the leg up on Organdie, which event- ually closed favorite over Money Muss. Getting away none too well, he dropped in behind the last named horse, Double Six and Peter J. Reed cut the corner sharply striking the stretch and taking the front position romped in first by five lengths in 1:07%. Peter J outlasted Money Muss, securing place honors by a neck. So. cleverly were the weights juggled that Leader, favorite for the mile and seventy yard handicap, was 16 to 5. The three-year-old carried 104 pounds, and it lcoked ltke asking a good deal of him, still the Jennings colt had shown consid- erable class. Horton, Diamente ana Flush of Gold were the next most fancied ones. Off none teo well at the start, Don- ovan hustled Leader to the front, and with Meehanus as close attendant led the big bunch into the stretch. At the eighth pole Leader was beaten. Then Kelly astride Meehanus looked the winner, un- til Lee Jackson drew clear of the others with Grafter, beating out Frank Doss' horse a neck. Horton was cut off at the FIVRTE Fi THEIR BIGKERS Unusua.l. Number of Up- sets in Ccursing at Union Park.

The mare's best races have buen over a heavy track, which is considered her long suit. Greyfeld seems to have gone back. Bob Smith’s horse led into the stretch and then called for his key. Glissando next assumed the lead and in a driving finish lost by a head only to Rosarie, an 86-pounder, piloted by “Kerry Patch” Wilson. The show fell to Bonnle Lissak. Some large commissions were unloaded on Glendenning to win the seventh num- her. a six-furlong spin. The Sink flier closed favorite and led well into the stretch, when the curtain fell. Powell theén sneaked along with Hainault, win- ning easily at the last from Mimo and Rag Tag. NOTES OF THE TRACK, Twenty books cut in and this number was iradequate to handle the money. Ed Lloyd of New York, George Rose and ‘‘English’ Bill Jackman were among the big winners. Had it not been for the Thornton stake Tommie_Knight would still be in the maiden class. Tommie was one of the top fotchers on the Chicago tracks. but has played in poor luck since coming to Califor: BERK Jimmy Coffey trained Rio Shannon over ths Berkeley roads hitched to a buckboard, Peter Weber Was much pleased over the horse's vic- tory, as this style of conditioning the thor- ouglibred is one of Peter's pet hobbles. Terry McGovern, his sparring partner, Bd- dle Cain, and Joe Humphreys left training quarters ‘at Alameda long enough to see the big race. Terry Is a horse pwner himself and has a brother named Phil who Is considered a coming jockey. Jockey Lewis will probably leave for New York to-morrow with Jack Bennett, a New York turfman. It appears a flaw was pieked in the contract Kirke & Company held on Lewls, and the boy will shake his old em- ployers for what looks a better opportunity. George Berry, superintendent of A. . Spreckels' Napa stock farm, came down to ses the Thornton run, All of the “oid boys” were present with réminiscences of the days of True Blue, Hock Hocking and Katy Pease.

PHYSICAL HOUSE-CLEANI A Thorough Cleansing of the Systen # T Now is the Surest Protection Against Spring and Summer Sickness. No good house keeper ever neglects Spring cleaning. With plenty of soap and water, hard scrubbing and scour- ing, sunlight and air, she soon gets rid of all rubbish, musty odors, germs and microbes, and the dust and dirt that have accumulated during the long winter months. But when the house has been put in order, and the premises cleared of all old plunder and trash, the great majority of house keepers feel that Spring 18 cleaning is over, and forget that their systems may be in a worse condition than the house, and that the bad feelings, debility, loss of appetite, nervousness and sleeplessness from which they are suffering are due to heglect of the more important and necessary work of Physical house cleaning. A clean house ddes not insure against disease, but a clean system does. The poisons and humors engendered within the y, the waste matter that is cloggmg the system and contaminating and vitiating the blood, are far more dangerous to health than the dirt and dust of our homes. In the winter time we give free rein to our appetites, and eat more and oftener than is for our good. We inhale the polluted air of badly ventilated offices and rooms, take little or no exercise, and our bodies become a veritable hot-bed of disease-bearing germs, and our blood is loaded with impurities and poisons of every conceiv- able kind; and no wonder that Spring time is so often Sick time and finds us in such po physical condition, with vitality slowly wasting away, our digestion impaired, the liver torpid, and all the bodily orgaus over-worked and out of repair. Unless our systems are given a thorough cleaning, and the blood purged and purified, the simplest malady may develop into some serious disorder or end in chronic invalidism, and often the pent-up impurities, poisons and. humors break out through the skin, and all through the Spring and Summer.you are tormented with boils, itchy rashes, sores, bumps and pimples, and all manner of ugly pustular and scaly eruptions. ¢ Physical house cleaning should begin with the blood. It must be purified and strength- ened, and when a stream of pure, rich blood is turned into all the nooks and corners of the stem, the rubbish and disease-producing poisons are washed out, and the congested annels and avenues of the body are opened, and Physical house cleaning is made thorough and complete, S.S.S. cleanses the blood of taints and poisons and expels the waste and rub- bish from the system. It is to the system what soap and water are to the house. Nothing else so quickly removes the stubborn, deeply-rooted poisons and humors that are destroying the purity of 3 . the blood and blocking the avenues of health and life. = A course of S: S. S. now will put your system in _ perfect order and fortify you against the debilitating diseases and aggravating skin troubles that are sure to come if your physical welfare has been neglected. S. 8. 8. is not only the best of all blood purifiers, but an unequalled tonic and appetizer. It builds you up, improve$ the appetite, and aids the digestion and assimilation of food, .and keeps the system in a healthy, vigorous conditien. S. 8. S. is guaranteed purely ve le, and can be taken by the old, middle-aged and young without danger of any harm- ful effects.
