BERKELEY FRESEMEN WIN EXCITING GAME Kern Kicks a Field Goal, Scoring the Only Points Made in the Contest. BERKELEY, Oct. 8.—After the most ex- citing and stubborn freshmen contest of the season the California freshmen de- feated the Santa Clara College team at football this afternoon on the Berkeley campus by a score of 5 to 0. In' the first half the elevens wrestied up and down the center of the fleld for twenty minutes, neither side getting dangerously near {he- goal lines. In the second half the time had nearly expired when the freshmen worked the ball to within three yards of the Santa Clara line. There Santa Clara held it and the situation became so critical that the freshmen decided to try for a fleld goal. Quarterback Sell passed the-ball from Haffee, the center, to Right Halfback Kern without a hitch, and Kern sent the ball flying squarely between the two posts, making the score 5 to 0. Feeling sure of the game, the coaches then replaced almost the entire freshmen team with new men, who were not effective in holding and buck- ing the Santa Clara eleven. The result ~was the Santa Claras beat the freshmen back to the twenty- five yard line in a few minutes. Santa Clara then attempted to repeat the fresh- men trick of kicking a field goal. Blow, the Santa Clara right guard, sent the ball flying toward the very center between the goal posts, but it didn’t go high enough, and, striking the crossbar, bounded back into The field. In the first half the teams were made up of: Freshmen—Gilli Jackson, Seabury Kern,_ Gabriel. Sweany, Allen, McGinnes, Haffee, Sell, o Tweedy, Sarita_Clara—Aguiree, Woodford, Blow, Hub. bard, McElroy, Barry, Belz, L.’ Magee. W, Magee, Feene: Brae, ». The following were sent in to replace the freshmen withdrawn after the first half: Kieinschmidt, ieft end; Jones, left Clark, left tackle; Brown, right right end; Hanna, quarter; Crow, left half; Sanborn, right half. San- ta Clara replaced Belz at left end by Haack and W. A. Magee at right half by McClatchey. —_——— Insolvent Mechanic. Timothy B.

LEXINGTON, Ky., Oct. 8.—Sadie Mac, E. E. Smathers" recent purchaser*won the historic Kentucky Futurity for three- year-olds with ease and without apparent effort in three straight heats, going the last mile in 2:12%, which is two seconds short of the record made by Fereno three years ago. She won by several lengths in each heat and at only one time was she in danger. That was in the first sev eighths of the first mile, when Ethel's Pride kept nose to nose with her. Ethel's Pride broke, however, and finished poorly in all three heats. The pure-gaited little trotter with fric- tionless mechanism utilized every move- ment of her body in shortening the dis- tance between her and the goal. Every muscle that she brought into play counted for time and distance. The track was lumpy and damp and fully three seconds slow when the starters in the Tennessee stake were called at 2 o'clock. Sunshine and harrows had gotten the track in a iittle better condition by the time the Fu- turity was called. Summary: The Tennessee, 2:08 pace, purse $3000 (one heat paced Wednesday)—Nervolo won first, sec- ond and fourth heats In 2:07%, 2:00, 2:00%. Major C won third heat in 2:10.

HE sport-loving people of this city are to be afforded the unex- pected opportunity next week of witnessing a game of lacrosse for the world’s champlonship. The Shamrocks of Montreal, who have held the. champlonship for years, have been playing a series of games against the Vancouver team. Each won only one game and will meet at National Baseball Park, Ninth and Bryant streets, in the decisive struggle. These clubs are ac- | knowledged the best in the world at this sensational game. The teams are due on the 13th inst. Vancouver will meet the All-Californias on the 15th at National Park in the open- ing game of the That these games will be worth seeing is an assured fact, as all the teams are the pick of the best lacrosse players in the world. The Vancouvers -and Shamrocks are composed of such men as Kavanaugh, Norman, Rielly, Howard Meclllwaine, “Big” Smith, Currie, the famous Brennan brothers, York Robinson, Finlayson, Cap- tain O'Connell and others. Every one is an expert at his position. They play the fast, snappy, aggressive game so dear to lovers of clean sport.

The opening game has been set aside as ladies’ day and the fain sex will be ad- mitted to both the grounds _and grand stands free of charge. e e o e e e ] TWO MEN ARE ACCUSED OF ROBBING FRENCH SAILOR They Are Both Arrested and One of Them Admits That He Is Guilty. Alfred Vigeroux, a salior on the French vessel Gael, lylng at Howard-strect wharf, was walking along the wharf to the vessel about midnight Wednesday night when two men approached him. One of them asked him the time and placed his hands on Vigeroux’s shoulders.: The other, as Vigeroux was pulling out his watch, snatched it from him, knocked him down and the two ran away. Vigeroux notified Policeman M. Barry and from a deseription of the two men he arrested Andrew Jacobson and John Her- mans in a lodging-house at 243 Steuart street, Jacobson was booked on a charge of robbery and Hermans on a charge of drunkenness. Jacobson was instructed and arraigned before Police Judge Ca- baniss yesterday and the case continued till to-morrow. The watch was found on Jacobson and he admitted that he stole it. Hermans was to appear as a witness against Jacobson, but when Detective Ryan, who was detailed on the case, learned through the French interpreter that Hermans was the man who first ac- costed Vigeroux he got Vigeroux to swear to a complaint charging Hermans with robbery and he was booked on that charge. oA Late Shipping Intelligence.

Con- ————— FIRE DOES DAMAGE TO CHINESE LAUNDRY Mrs. McCumber and Yung Lee Suffer Loss of $5000 Through a Blaze. Y A blaze in Yung Lee's laundry at Twen- ty-second and Dolores streets at 9 o'clock last night caused a triple alarm and brought the engines from all directions In as great haste as if a downtown bigi- ness block were ablaze, * A high wind was blowing at the time and this was the cause of the three alarms. The district is thickly populated and had the blaze made any headway much - preperty would have been de- stroyed. How the fire started is a mystery. The Chinese In the place at the time say that it was caused by a defective flue. No one seems to be able to gite a satisfac- tory explanation of its origin, so an in- vestigation by the Fire Marshal will prob. ably be made. The building was a two- story frame structure owned by Mrs. Mc- Cumber. The loss will probably reach $5000, partly covered by insurance. —_——— There are nearly 9,000,000 negroes in the United States.

DETROIT, Mich., Oct. 8.—The examina- tion of Ed E. Farley, the Chicago horse- man, on the charge of ‘“ringing” the mare Aimless as Sarah Black at the Grosse Pointe running meeting on June 16, was begun to-day. The prosecution created a.sensation by introducing two letters to Billy O'Hara's turf speculation syndicate offices in this city. In one of the letters written at New Orleans in March, 1902, it was sald that a, mare had Sid Silver, Gus been secured that could go three-quarters of a mile in 1:13% and that she looked like Sarah Black; that Sarah Black had been put out of the way, and that this mare could be entered as Sarah Black at the Roby track and a big killing be made at the expense of the bookmakers. The second letter, written from Little Rock, stated that the mare was sick with fever and that it would be impossible to ship her for some time. Both letters con- tained injunctions to the receiver to be sure to destrov them. Justice Lemkie held Farley for trial and | fixed ball at $2500, which Farley was un- able to furnish. He was committed to jail. ——————— Theatrical Stars Play Ball.

P The corporal's guard that turned out at Recreation Park yesterday afternoon saw the same old baseball stunt over again. The Angels won, score 12 to 3. There was not a bit of interest In the game, and after the first few innings had been played the fans began to make a g away, until at the end of the contest the place was deserted. Whalen could not pitch a lick at all The southern giants hit everything Jimmy sent over the rubbe whenever any of the Los Angeles pla ers were on the bags, so the score was big before the game had grown many innings old. The Angels did not exert themgelves to any serious extent, they could have scored twice as runs. Charley Baum pitched winning ball for Morley. He was steady in every inning. The three runs scored off his delivery could have been prevented with a squars deal from the umpire and good support from his flelders. He had speed and curves, and worried the home batters in every inning but one. The score San Francisco— | Los Angeles— The flelders erred AB.R. H. P.A AB. R. H. P.A.
