EPENDENTS WIN EASY GAME Pickwicks Lose Football | Match on Presidio | Ground. IND Goalkeeper Rushton Shows Great Skill Between the Fosts. ey The Independent Association Football | eleven easily defeated the Pickwick team yesterday afternoon on the Pre- I sidio athletic grounds in this city. At the conclusion of play the score stood | 6 to 0 in favor of the Independents. | | The number of goals scored by the| winners would have been considerably larger had the losers not possessed an excellent goalkeeper, Rushtcn, who made many fine saves. The Pickwick Meven was largely made up of ne\\‘ men and lacked team work. The com- bination work and passing of the In-| dependents were much superior to those | of their opponents and the Pickwick | goal was constantly in danger. The ball was kicked off ‘at 2: ans, president o ifornia ociation Football League. »d deal of back and forth ngerous shots at the Pick- | ick goal being cleverly kept out by | Rushton, the Independents took the | ball down the field with a rush and | scored the first goal in about fifteen | minutes. The Independents put the ball be- tween the posts a second® time before half time was called, but did not score a goal. After changing ends the Independents j he ball down close to the Pick- | 1 and Rushton, running out to , left his post unguarded. The In- | drr\»rwln nts secured a second goal. A little later another goal was secured by a good shot at ute angle. Though the Pickwicks d hard and had| several shots at the goal, none of them resuited suc sfully and the match ended without their scoring. C. W.| Irish refereed the game.

Rig Outside Right... The heavy v i Fast Game of Association Football Played at Alameda. ALAMEDA, Nov. 15.— Snappy and | scientific football was played by the Vampires and the Hornets of the Cali- | fornia Association League on the Web- | ster-street field this afternoon. result- | ing in a hard-earned victory for the | former kickers by a score of 1to0.| The goal that won the game was made in the first part of the sec- | ond half. In this half the sphere was | for the greater part of the time in the | Vampires’ territory. It appeared sever- | al times that the Hornets, who grew aggressive toward the close, would tie the contest. Bird, Williamson, Erskine and Chambers of the Hornetsput up a game that surprised their opponents, and won many commendations for the punters. Peterson and Wilding, of the Vampires, were the men who attracted the attention of the large crowd by | splendid work for their side. The | teams lined up as follows: Hornets — Williamson, goal; Shand, right back: W. Pomroy, left back; Bird, right half; Chambers, center half; McKay, left half; Lackie, outside right; Cowell, inside right; Erskine, center; Pomeroy, inside left; Hunter, outside left.

He is under contract to ride for the stable of Dan Hanlon, owner of Sly and other horses, | and is one of the most gentlemanly lit- | tle fellows riding. During the meeting at Bennings last spring Haack finished second to Redfern in the list of winning mounts. Barney Schreiber returns to Califor- nia a good winner on the Eastern sea- son. While his stable did not cut a wide swath, Barney was fortunate in | booking ventures. The crack filly Ge- heimness never regovered from.the at- tack of catarrhal fever contracted at Little Rock early in the year. She is now at Oakland track in care of Train- er Dick Williams, and may round to in this climate. A well-known trainer lays the indif- ferent showing made by several well- played horses at Oakland on Saturday to the deceptive condition of the going. While most people were basing their calculations on a sloppy track, he says the footing was sticky and holding. This was due to the new top dressing | taken from the infleld. Bookmaker Joe Harlan quit $1400 to the bad on Saturday. He happened to pick up some Eonic money. Barney Schreiber started off well by winning about $2500. There will soon be plenty of good rid- ers here.

Oldfield Fails in Record Trial. SAN JOSE, Nov. 15.—A heavy track and the improper working of the mechanism of his machine prevented Barney Oldfield from approaching any- where near his record at the automobile meet herg to-day. Both his speed trials with his/“Bullet No. 2" fizzled on this account. His best time for the mile was 1 minute 2-5 of a second. The other events were fairly successtul. Charles Hill of San Jose made a run- away race in the motor-cycle contests, taking both events. Letcher of San Jose and Cooper of San Francisco rode a dead heat the race for Cadillac machines, making the three miles in 6:01. Bicycle contests were also a feat- ure of the programme. \Hartwlg, i20; L. Thierbach, 115 A, Ut- schig, 1692: A. Jungblut, 1119 M. F. Hart- ter, i2o; Fred Brands, 1i20: T, eubold. 600; L.

SAN MATEO, Nov. 15.—The San Mateo Athletic Club football team de- feated the Columbia team of San Fran- cisco to-day by a score of 6 to 0. The game was stubbornly contested on both sides and there were an unusual num- ber of good kicks. San Mateo showed great improvement in team work, the result of nightly practice for a week. The first touchdown was made in four- teen minutes. Walter Demara kicked the goal, making the score 6 o 0. The remainder of the first and all of the second half, was a continuous see- saw, with fluctuating advantage, and ending without either side sccring. The ball was thirty yards trom Columbia’s goal at the close of the game. John T. Cronin had his collarbone and left shoulderblade fractured in the first mix-up. He returned to the field as soon as ‘the doctor had bandaged his injuries and witnessed the remainder of the game. ‘Walking the Fad in Paris. PARIS, Nov. 15.—The walking craze continues.

BY OCTAVE THANET. of in the MEXT SUNDAY CALL. i CLEVER BOSTON BOXER WHO | WILL BE BRITT'S NEXT | OPPONENT. L= — | Eastern Boxer Impresses the Visitors at His Quurters. HE wise sporting men say the | betting on the Britt-Canole | contest which is to take place next Friday night at Colma should not be 2 to 1. Canole is a much better man than Seiger, and although Britt is picked to win, the Californian will have his work cut out for him to achieve a victory. | Canole has not, apparently, extended | himself in training. He has a number of Eastern sporting men with him who are here to take as much coln home with them as possible. The odds suit them and they will bank heavily on Canole’s chances of winning. Canole is a big surprise when he doffs his garments. His legs are big and strong and his stomach is ridged with muscles that will save him in a de- gree from Britfs punishing lefts. Landers, who is training for Mauro | Herrera, landed a right on Canole a | few days ago and sent the Easterner | staggering against the wall. The Bos- ton boy came back and fought his spar- ring partner to a standstill. Canole has a stiff left which he lands with unerr- ing aim. In boxing before a big crowd | yesterday Canole refrained from using his right hand. He devoted his atten- | tion to straight jabs and upper-cuts | with his left. Canole uses a shift which Britt will have to solve before the fight progresses far, as Canole is clever in landing with it. Alec Greggains, Harry Foley and the balance of the men quartered at Lark- spur look upon Canole as a good man. | They also admit that Canole does not extend himself in training. It remains to be seen how much better he can do in the ring. George Gardner is rounding into form for his battle with Fitzsimmons. He | worked out before a big crowd yester- day, and the wise ones came away with a high opinion of the Lowell boxer. George hammered the-inflated sphere for ten minutes without a let-up and then took on Harry Foley and Alec Greggains in eight two-minute rounds. Foley did the fast boxing and let loose all his pet punches at George. The lat- ter blocked beautifully and hammered Foley until Harry thought Dave Barry was throwing rocks at him. Greggains wore a_heavy pneumatic pad and al- lowed Gardner to land with all his force. Gardner took some hot punches in return, as Greggains was there with both hands. Gardner lifted Greggains off his feet time and time again with terrific punches which the recipient | could feel through the pad. It was great work for Gardner and did much to perfect his punching powers. Gard- ner worked for half an hour. —————————— YELLOW FEVER EXPERTS INJURED BY ACCIDENT Doctors Murray and Guiteras Are Thrown From a Carriage at Laredo, Texas. LAREDO, Tex.,.

Horgan Again Suppiies First and Second in Puppy Event. S G Rubber Ankles, fresh from her triumphs in the American Waterloo at Oklahoma City, started in the open stake yesterday at Union Coursing Park and won cleverly. The fortunes of coursing gave her three “bye” courses, so she was called upon to beat only Pepepr Hill, Tralee Boy and Van- dal. The long railroad journey to Ok- lahoma did not dull her speed, as she was at her best yesterday, showing a great flight of speed. The coursing was remarkable for the length of the trials. Fifty of the eighty-six courses lasted more than one minute. Of this number nineteen lasted more than two minutes. Twenty- two favorites were beaten.
