JUDGES CALL UP FULLER. Little Fuiler, meantime, was enjoying the first fruits of vieto and, seated in the floral eshoe, being borne across the n. He paled a bit when suddenly summoned from that height of jockey pride to face the judges, but set forth case well, and Gdom’s claim was not allowed. Five minutes of intense anx- fety, in which even the women were quiet, passed before the red board went up. Horsemen, although agreeing that Afri- | cander and ¥ bert bumped in the stretch, were of the unanimous belief that the better horse won, and that Africander would have been first in a event. Thirteen of continvous rain had turned the track into a quagmire and ine time, 2:10 2-5, was the slowest e 1887. HERMIS SETS THE PACE. To a prompt, bui not good, start the fleld got awa® with Articulate slightly in the lead of Hermis; Lux Casta, the added starter, came alongeide and Herbert fourth Colonel Bill, Africander and Igniter formed a second division behind the lead- ers, while Major Daingerfield, the 7 to 2 favorite, was far back. Hermis, carrying 128 pounds, went to the front, passing the stand, lapped by Articulate, Lux Casta and Africander. The Dwyer horse was lucky at the first turn. There the fear of the field swung wide and Hunter Raine, se splendid race was @ feature of the was carried over most to the « pad . He was lasi by two lengths as they straightened out into the back stretch. Hermis. like the Hermis of old, swung into the straightaway after the first turn, three lengths in the lead. tle fellow that made the only pace in the race. He killed off sterling competitors, but died himself In the destruction of his cander became most dangerous the three-quarters- mark was passed. The heavy impost. swift pace and deep mud told on Hermis here, and he began to fall back. Africander headed him and Herbert, too, dashed past "Phomas’ $60,000 horse. Heno was in the middle of the fleld, while Major Dainger- field was creeping up. DUEL BETWEEN THE LEADERS. Africander and Herbert spun away from the tiring Hermis as they reached the last turn and the race was plainly be- tween the two. Little Odom took Herbert into the stretch for the better going near the outer rail. To the astonishment of lookers-on, Fuller cut across with Afrl- cander to the outside and the two animals bumped together, Herbert on the out- side and almost against the outer rail, a sixteenth from home, @ sl o bl ‘Whence Came “Bucket-Shop.” Trading was dull on ’change the other day, and a little group of brokers were discussing the markets and gossiping. Fi- nally the conversation drifted into a reminiscent vein and the group fell to telling stories of that famous crowd of speculators who made the old Chicago wheat pit a famous spot In the palmy days of thirty years ago. During the progress of the conversation some one made use of the term *buckef shop,” us- ing it in the generally accepted sense of to-day. “That reminds me,” said Thomas H. Doyle, “that I was present when the word ‘bucket shop’ was first coined. It was—let me see—thirty years ago, when the old Chicago Board of Trade stood at Washington and La Salle streets. William Pieronette, one of the old-time brokers of Chicago; Abel Adams of Minneapolis and myself were entering Henry Lind- sen’s buffet at Exchange place and Gamb- lers’ alley. I was, 1 regret to say, about 1o induige in a mild libation. This inter- esting situation was interrupted by the sudden appearance of ‘Bill'’ Lincoln, a well-known character on ’‘change, who rushed up to Piernotte and said: ‘Let me have $10 for a stake and I will go over on the open Board of Trade and buy a time in the score of years of its | It was this Mt- C.

Galning surel® were the blue and white squares as theyv neared the finish. Fuller had not called on Afri- cander for the last effort, however. When he did bring down his whip the response was instantaneous. The sturdy three- year-old leaped forward, swerved for a stride in front of Herbert and then ran stralght and true to the wire, winner by a head. Major Daingerfield had made his bid at the head of the stretch, but was danger- ous for only a dozen strides. Igniter, too, tried and failed when the stretch was reached. It was Hunter Raine whose progress shone grandly forth in spite of ill luck of every Kind. Shields’ dogged little bay had picked up his field one by one. Michaels saved ground on the turn, and the horse, coming with a splendid burst of speed, was third at the wire, four lengths behind Herbert and six lengths in front of Major Daingerfield. . Hermis finished thirteenth and Artlcu- late fourteenth, with Yardarm last. BRED AT RANCHO DEL PASO. Bred on the Rancho del Paso of J. B. Haggin, Africander was brought East and sold as a yearling to Juius Flelschmann. Dwyer & Deimel bought Africander for $10,000 and at their dissolution sale last September put him up at auction. They i reconsidered their plans, however, and bid in the colt at $14,000. Africander won the famous Belmont stakes and other races this year. No. 13 was Africander’'s number on the programme, as it was of Irish Lad, wine ner of the Brooklyn Handicap. The Whitneys, father and son, withdrew their entries, Goldsmith and Irish Lad, on the advice of their trainer, John W. Rogers, who said neither could do himseif Justice In the deep golng.

Hughes and Whalen Battle Desperately for Nine Innings. | When Bertie Delmas came tearing over the sacks at Recreation Park yesterday and safely rounded the last turn in the elghth round he succeeded in breaking up a wonderful exhibition of the national amusement. That little lone tally proved the goods and so the native ball tossers got to Wilson and his Pick Me Ups for another-game, making it two in a row. Up to the eighth there was never much danger of runs being made, s both Wha- len and Hughes had the kind the batsmen cannot wallop to advantage. It was a disastrous base on balls that did the buslness, one of the five Hughes issued during the fast nine-inning struggle of ups and downs and adversities. Delmas was the first man up. He walt- ed patiently while Hughes did his oid-time Baltimore act of winding them about the batter’s head. Four bad ones came over and Del trotted down to first. Then Jim- mie der Whale sacrificed and before the fans had a chance te do any yelling Denny Shay came through with a speed- laden drive out to center and Delmas puffed his way along till the rubber was safely reached. 1t is possible Ward could have thrown Delmas out at the plate had he tried. But he did not. Instead he lined tbe ball to Hughes, who in turn threw it to second just in time to catch Shay as he was siid- ing to the bag. Then Pat Meany hit out another safe one, but it came too late and got Uncle nothing additional on the score board. The infield of both teams worked to per- fection. Delmas made the greatest play of the day. In the fifth round Wilson got a pass and Bottiger sacrificed. Hughes went out and Wilson landed on third. Then Ziegler tore off one over second that looked good for a hit on any ball grounds, but Delma hand. was probably saved then and there. score: San Francisco— WAB.R. H.

PORTLAND, Or., June 18.—Joe Walcott of Boston and Young Peter Jackson of Baltimore, both colored, fought a twenty- round draw to-night at the Pastime Club. When the referee declared the fight a draw at the end of the twentieth round the crowd yelled for Jackson, as it was clearly his fight for the last five rounds. The men fought at 149 pounds and both appeared in fine condition. During the first ten rounds Walcott aid most of the leadimg. while Jackson fought on the defemsive, occasionally landing a lefi-hand punch to his oppo- nent's ribs or a straight right jab over the kidneys. Jackson was sizing up his man and in doing so took a lot of punish- ment, for the Boston man uppercut him with his left and landed hard on his head. In the fourteenth round Jackson swung right and left on Walcott's head and at the end of the round the Boston man looked tired. In the fifteenth they mixed it up and banged each other all around the ring, Jackson doing more than his share of the leading. From the sixteenth to the end of the fight both men fought hard, but Walcott hugged his opponent to avold punishment in every round. Jack- son was able to stand punishment and at the end of the fight was fresh. In the last two rounds Walcott clinched repeatedly and hung on with his arms around Jackson's waist until the referee pulled them apart. ————————— EARLY MORNING WORK FOR BOXER CORBETT Avoids Heated Period of the Day in Order That He May Not Lose Weight. Ex-champion James J. Corbett is train- ing to regain all his former speed and strength withy rificing any of his avoirdupois, which is now in the vicinity of 155 pounds. In order to do this Jim believes he must not do his heavy work in the heat of the day. He is therefors doing most of his boxing and roadwork in the morning when the air is cool and bracing and a man can go some without getting overheated. Jim is generally up shortly after the Alameda roosters have knocked off crowing and breathes in great volumes of invigorating atmosphere | of that lovely suburb, which is good alike for pugliist and all who would be healthy. Yesterday Jim took to the ro and returned to his training quarters be- fore 10 o'clock. He then mixed with Yank Kenny and Sam Berger for half a dozen rounds and made these two clever glove artists extend themselves to keep out of the line of fire. The ex-champion shoots in blows from all directions and with the deception and quickness which in years gone by brought him fame and of the world. Jim's the champlonship ¥ footwork is a revelation to those who have not seen such a large man get around as lively as the actor-boxer does. One of the favorites of the Corbett camp is old “Laddie,” Jim's famous collie dog, which was with him when he tramed at Carson for the fight he lost to Fitzsim- mons. “Laddie” Is not as young as he used to be, but he goes out on the road with his master regularly from force of habit. When the day is warm the old collie likes to “soldier” and drop behind to rest occasiopally. Corbett has Been generously given the freedom of the Alameda Boat Club's house on the estuary and any of the boats in the building should he desire to go In for rowing. —————————— CINCINNATI PLAYERS SCORE AN EASY VICTORY Pitcher Matthewson's Wildness im Fifth Inning Loses Game for New York.
