Everything Is in Readiness for the Britt-Canole En- gagement. — e Ring-goers will journey down to Colma to-night to see Jimmy Britt and Martin Canole battle twenty-five rounds for what virtually means the lightweight championship. Britt claims the title, which is held by Gans, and he will do his best to uphold it. In “anole he will find one of the best men n his class. Eastern critics look upon as a clever boxer, and betting asing their judgment on reports from the E will play t the odds which Britt's friends e.

Outsiders captured the other three events. The downfall of Horton, at 7 to 10, was a staggering blow to the backers of the Burns handicap winner of a year ago. The card throughout was only a fair one, but attracted the usual crowd. Horton, which ruled a top heavy choice for the mile and 100 yard run, appeared to stand out as one of the real mellow ones to speculate on. He no doubt would have won but for a stunt of Ferrell's at the post. When Dick Dwyer sprung the barrier Ferrell in some manner let Horton swerve, 10s- ing several lengths. FOLEY IN FRONT. Foley slipped away in front with C. B. Campbell, leading Miracle II into the stretch. Down the back stretch it did not take Ferrell any longer to close up his ground lost at the start ! than it does for a train brakeman to slam a door. This left the favorite nothing to finish on. “Big Bill” Knapp furnished a vigorous ride on Miracle II, which was played from 8 down to 5, and at the end won cleverly from C. B. Campbeil. The favorite ran third, three lengths farther back. Twelve moderate selling platers lined up in the opening six furlong sprint and the Montana contingent tried to make some nolse with Flourish. They ran their coin through the board on the big bay at 15 to 1. In a drive Alta G, another 15 to 1 shot, beat him out length. Foul Play finished almost a | third and Toto Gratiot, the lukewarm | chotce, fourth. DORICE WINS ALL THE WAY. Avenger, the speedy colt from the Young Corbett, the feather-weight champion boxer, accompanied by Harry Weeden, arrived in this city at an early | hour yesterday morning, fresh from his | Eastern triumphs. The trin across the contingnt upset th= little champion and he went to bed | at the Palace Hotel immediately upon his arrival. Dr. McGettigan was sum- moned and found his patiént merely suffering from the shaking up he re- ceived cn the way out here. Simple remedies and a few hours’ rest restored him to his normal condition. Corbett weighs about 134 pounds. He Corbett is to fizht Eddie Hanlon be- fore the Hayes Valley Club next month. There are two conditions he demands and he must receive = bonus of 10 per cent, as he is the champfon. He will discuss these matters to-day with Man- ager Levy. WINNERS IN THE EAST.

The Von Rhein Real Estate Company held an auction yesterday at, the sales- rooms on California street. In spite of the rainy weather the attendance was good and the bidding was spirited in some instances. Properties offered were sold as follows: Lot on the east line of Devisadero street, between Green and Union, $3450; lot on the north line of Green street, east from Devisa- dero, $2900; about three-fifths of the block bounded by Carolina, Seven- teenth, De Haro and Eighteenth streets, $9500. Considerable attention was attracted by the sales In the block bounded by Kansas, Nevada, Rhode Island and De Haro streets. The lots fronting on Kansas street brought $500 to $600 per lot; lots fremting on Rhode Island street, $350 to $400; lots fronting on Ne- vada street averaged $650 per lot; cor- ner of Kansas and Nevada streets sold at $560; corner of Nevada and Rhode Island streets, $850. The remaining lots fronting' on Ar- kansas, Connecticut, Missouri, Michi- gan, Texas and Nevada streets sold at from $150 to $600 per lot. The entire sale footed up $47,025. —_———— Riveter Breaks His Leg. John Sonogini, 912 Iilinois _Street, a riveter at the Union Iron Works, was struck on one of his legs by a crate of iron yesterday.The bone was broken above the knee. He was treated at the Potrero Hospital. Schorr stable, opened rorite for the two-year-old scramble, but there seemed a lack of action and from 2 the price went to 13 to 5. Barney chreiber’s Dorice was backed from 3 to 2, and ridden by D. Hall won all the way. Anirad, a 10 to 1 chance from the Coffey stable, disposed of Metlakatla for the place. Avenger met with many mishaps. Billy Magrane's shifty mudlark, Matt Hogan, had nothing to beat in the third number and eplashed home an easy winner over Berendos. Three to five was about the best price cbtainable. Laureatea took the show. Dugan, an Oregon product, rode Canejo when she finished last in a race on Saturday, but for some reason Fer- rell took a trick at the wheel yester- day. A well-known professor of math- ematics has been engaged at an enor- mous salary to figure out how many pounds better Ferrell is than Dugan, and expects to have finished his task by Thanksgiving day. Canejo took the running away from Loyal § on the back stretch and won in stake-horse fashion from Galanthus, the second choice. Roliick, the 9 to 10 favorite, showed no speed. There was no holding Ben MacDhui in the concluding mile purse run. The Ryan horse was held at odds of 9 to 20 and led from start to finish. Away poorly Byron Rose managed to get the place anyway, those in front of him stopping almost to a walk. Arcade, carrying the colors of W. B. Jennings, finished a fair third. TRACK NOTES. D. Hall keeps moving right along. He added two more winning mounts to his list yesterday. Fred Edwards let his watch run down, and when the horses were ready to leave the paddock for the third race, Botany was an absentee. The judges ordered the horse scratched and gave the ring twenty minutes to make a new book. Edwards was fined Pat Reagan, well known as assistant for the late Starter Ferguson, is in town after a two vears' spell of railroading in ada. Pat did the starting one year at cramento. Jack Martin said that Rollick sulked under him all the way. The gelding is af- flicted with'a ringbone and this must be taken into consideration. 4 can negotiate the Futurity course, but six furlongs is generally a bit too far for him. Starter Dick Dwyer was criticized for the start that Byron Rose recelved, but if owners put up inexperienced boys on their horses they must look for accidents. Fred Taral, Henry Spencer and Eugene Snedeker, American jockeys who have been riding in Europe, arrived in New York the other day. Taral's riding was done over the tracks of Germany, Austria and Hungary and he won 101 races out of 365 starts, which establishes those countries, s ENTRIES FOR TO-DAY’S RACES.

Yerba Buena Lodge No. 15, Independ- ent Order of Odd Fellows, celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of its existence by a banauet at the Merchants’ Club last Wednesday night. There were present nearly 150 members of the lodge and a few specially invited guests. A fine arrangement of the flow- er strewn tables was added to by the tasteful arrangement of many Ameri- can flags around the clubroom in proof “f the membership’s patriotism, follow- Brune had just served two terms in the County Jail for battery, and Taylor dis- covered that'he had been away from the shoe shop on Wednesday from noon till 2 o'clock. The assault was alleged to have been committed between 1 and 2 o'clock. Brune served his terms for at- tempting to assault young girls. He was not detained, owing to the girl's failure ing the idea recently adopted of dis- playing the national emblem at every meeting. . The supper, in deference to the law of the Sovereign Grand Lodge, was served without wine. Frank Knell, the noble grand, presided as toastmas- ter. During the repast Janke's orches- tra discoursed popular airs. After the black coffee was served the toastmaster called upon Davis Louderback, past grand master, to respond to “Our Na- tion.” Mr. Louderback made an elo- quent talk upon the growth, power and standing of the greatest nation of the world, and predicted that the time is not far distant when the United States will be supreme in commerce and that “she will be mistress of the seas.” W. H. Barnes, past grand master, respond- ed to the “Order of Odd Fellowship,” and traced in beautiful language its growth from a small lodge of black- smiths to a membership of 1,320,000, with lodges in every part of the world. The Knickerbocker male quartet ren- dered several selections. W. W. Wat- son, past grand master, resnonded to “The Odd Fellows’ Home.” Charles F. Delong, a member of the lodge, favored with ballads. L. L. Alexander respond- ed to “The Grand Lodge.” John Thomp- son, grand trustee of the home, spoke in the\absence of John S. Reed, one of to identify him. ———————— Prelate's Lecture Postponed.

A sad case of crueity and neglect on the part of a drunken, heartless mother was brought to the attention of the police yesterday in a squalid and fiithy room at €20 Sixth street. The unnatural woman is Mrs. Maggie Simmeons, wife of a teamster. She was locked up on a charge of being drunk and her three small children were given in charge of the matron at the Emergency Hospital. The youngest of the little'ones is but 7 months of age and the oldest of the trio is hardly big enough to care for herself, yet she has been looking after the other two as best she could for two weeks, during which time the mother has been off on a prolonged spree. An attempt will be made to find a suitable home for the unfortunate chil- dren, as their mother is not a fit guard- ian for them. ————— Miss Dwyer Wants a Warrant. ¥ Miss Jean A.
