George Braun, the Olympic Club wel- ter-weight boxer and hero of many a sen- sational battle in the amateur ring, suc- cumbed last night before the fierce on- slaught of Joe Thomas. The fight ended during the third round. So spectacular was the sudden finish that the spectators stood up and yelled till the echoes of their sbouts resounded throughout the | house. The bout was the main event of the 3ay City Club’s monthly show and It attracted much interest. Braun was the favorite and in the first round showed fo advantage. Thomas was puzzled at the Olympian’s fast rushes and it seemed he would soon succumb. But the aspect changed in the second. Thomas began to use a straight left and this stopped the rushes of Braun to a certain extent. The latter was game, however, and came up in the third round with a swollen face and weak from the beating he was getting. He started to rush it at the out®et, but Thomas met his advances with his left. He was fast cutting his opponent’s face to ribbons, when the latier was seen to staggger. Then Thomas aimed two swings on Braun’s jaw and he went to the floor to rise no more until he had been counted out. The remainder of the programme was exceptionally good. Dick Hyland ham- mered Kid Parker hard and he went to sleep In the second. A. Elkins, the clever bantam, put George White away in two rounds. Ernest Wilson secured the de- cision over Jim Kane. Harry Tenny made Charley Webber quit in a round, and Eddie Carr finished Matt Wallace with one decisive wallop on the jaw dur- ing a mixup in the initial period, —_——— UZ, Sept. 23.—Dr. H. - ;nf‘f";:-af: p!’mfln of thi cl}{v. g5 for Korea with his wife next month.

It was the first day of the autumn | meeting of the Empire City Trotting | Club, and in addition to a strong card of four races Prince Alert was billed for | what looked like the impossible feat of beating the record. Prince Alert had re- cently won the half-mile track champion- ship in 2:08%, which had been won only the week before by Dan Patch in 2:04, and good judges’\'vre sanguine of his success. The weathel and the track were perfect, and the wind, which was high early in the day, subsided, so that the conditions were favorable. Mart Demarest, the train- er and driver of the Prince, on account of overweight decided to get John Curry to drive, and Demarest drove the thorough- bred pacemaker with the wind shield sulky. At the third time the starter gave the word, and pacing like a perfect piece of machinery Prince Alert shot away to the quarter pole in 29% seconds. As he reached the backstretch he increased his speed, and was at the half In 58 seconds. Then the crowd realized that they were witnessing the fastest mile of the centur; and cheers and shouts of ““Come on! came from the spectators in the grand stand and on the lawn. Without a break he flashed by the three-quarter pole in 1:26%, and without any urging came on with a superb burst of speed, crossing the wire in 1:57.

By the movement set on foot at a meet- ing of prominent yachtsmen in the pariors of the Olympic Club last night San Fran- cisco and the Pacific Coast are to unite in assisting the lovers of aquatic sports in New York to tender Sir Thomas Lip- | ton, the gallant yachtsman, a magnificent testimonial of the apprecfation in which he is held by all true American lovers of sport. As a result of the meeting it | was determined to allow vachting clubs | from Seattle to San Diego to add their contributions to the sum which will be raiged in this city, so that a grand total of several thousand dollars may be sent East to swell the fund already subscribed to in New- York. Acting on the call of Colonel F. E. Beck of the International Banking Corporation the following enthusiasts of yachting and. allied aquatic sports, representing clubs about the bay assembled last night: Commodore R. S. Bridgman, San Fran- cisco Yacht Club; Commodore E. F. Sa- gar, Corinthian Yacht Club; C. H. Mor- rell, San Francisco Yacht Club; A. G. A. Mueller, San Francisco Yacht Club; J. H. Keefe, port captain Corinthian Yacht Club, and James M. Patrick, San Francis- co Yacht Club. In order that work might be carried on systematicalfy Colonel Beck was elected chairman and Commodore Bridgman secretary of the temporary or- ganization which has taken in charge the collection of funds from the coast. PROMINENT MEN AID. In explaining the objects of the meeting Colonel Beck said: “A few days ago the International Banking Corporation, of which I am the | manager, received a communication from New York asking that we of San Fran- cisco and of the coast generally assist in the subscription toward the magnificent silver service which is to be presented to Sir Thomas Lipton as a testimonial to the esteem with which the true sportsmen of America regard his manful and sports- manlke efforts to win the America’s cup. Although this is intended to be primarily a gift from the lovers of aquatic sports, there are many who have a strong ad- miration for the gallant sportsman and desire to enroll thelr names among the list of donors. That our city and the Pa- cific Coast may be represented is the pur- pose of the movement which will be set on foot to-night.” Colonel Beck then read letters from John D. Spreckels and Willlam Greer Harrison volcing their enthusiasm in the movement. He further said he had re- celwed personal assurances from other prominent business men of the city that they would respond handsomely to the in- vitation for subscriptions. COoM: S APPOINTED. Plans for the active campaign in behalf of the movement were then inaligurated. It was first decided that a committee from each of the following yacht clubs be appointed by their respective commo- dores to receive contributions from their members: San Francisco Yacht Club, Corinthian, California, Encinal, South Bay, Vallejo, Los Angeles, San Diego, Seattle, Portland and University Boat Club. From among prominent yvachting men about the bay Colonel Beck then ap- pointed members to receive subscriptions from the various shipping, mercantile and corporation interssts in San Francisco. All the delegates present were constituted into an executive committee to personally superintend the work of collection. It was especially desired that the peo- ple of the State be notified that all sub- scriptions to the fund be received by the International Banking Corporation of this city and receipts forwarded for the same by that company. ————— Stanford Freshmen Defeated.

The rest was easy for them, so they saved themselves from going into second place by copping the game. Score, 6 to 4. The Senators made a good start. Every man on the team was there with the life and ginger and determined to fade the natives to a fare-ye-well. They might have done this, only they were just little off the scent in the fifth, when the Zame was broken up. The score was 4 to 0 then, and Mike was riding easy. Sud- denly Zearfoss chopped off a single and oid man Pabst dropped a slow one at Keefe. He threw the ball away at sec- ond, giving Zearfoss time to clear the plate and Pabst to land at third Phen Delmas walloped the ball to the outfield, and Pabst arrived. Raymond laid down a twister at:the plate. Some one of the Senators gave Graham the office | to pelt the leather to second to head off Delmas. This he did, and while the sphere was being chased by McLaughlin, Delmas | made third and Raymond second.
