He was so much taller than Hyland that the latter had to jump to reach his jaw. Sullivan kept him from reaching it with any effect during three rounds, but in the fourth the little fellow, who had wop the sym- pethy of the crowd by his gameness and willingness to try the big fellow at any sort of fighting, landed with fre- quency. When the judges decided in Sullivan's favor the spectators hooted and yelled and hissed, and when Hy- “Jand left the ring was given three hearty cheers for his gameness. The fight between Lew ‘Powell and Jack Moran was fierce from the start to the finish. They are both willing fighters and clever ones and gave an exhibition worth traveling a long way Powell appeared to be stronger the two, but he was not near as stiff a puncher as his oppo- nent. It was anybody’s fight up to the third r nd, when Moran caught Pow- ell a stinging right on the jaw and sent him to the floor. Powell was dazed and when Moran landed three | straight lefts in the same place he was plainly in sore He lasted out the round, howe and came up strong for the finish.

They did cverything but bite and kick, and when the gong sounded the finish were in the center of the ring fighting away like mad, though Powell was not any too strong. The judges decided, however, that he was the winner, much to the disgust of the crowd, which yelled and hissed and cailed Foley and Everett all sorts of cheats. e Herrera Is Again Matched. MILWAUKEE, Wis.,, Jan. 11.—The Milwaukee Boxing Club to-day re- matched Aurelia Herrera, can, and Charles Neary of this city to meet in a six-round bout on Jan- uary 22.

W. Hibbard. BAKERSFIELD, Jan. 11.—The twen- ty-first annual trials of the Pacific Coast Field Trial Club were commenced here this morning under conditions none too | favorable for high-class work. An early | start was made for the grounds, located some eleven miles southwest of Bakers- field, and the first brace of dogs, con- sisting of Charles Cogggns' English set- ter dog Sharon Boy, handled by J. Lu- cas, and H. W. Keller's English setter bitch Sombra, handled by W. B. Coutts, were cast off in open territory, rather devoid of suitable cover, gnd ran fifty minutes. Sombra showed a superiority in speed and range, running well to the end of her beat without letting up in her search for birds, and showing con- siderable bird sense. Sharon Boy moved rather heavily in comparison. Soon after starting a bevy flushed wild and took to the trees, where they remained until driven out by some of the field | trial attendants. Sombra rooded on | foot scent of the birds after they had flushed, and Sharon Boy, coming up, drew to a point, but discovered his er- ror and moved on after holding it a few moments. The dogs were then worked acr a large extent of terri- tory containing many alkali deposits, and when brought back to a patch of weeds where a few birds had hidden lost their scenting powers and were unable to locate the birds, the majority of which were flushed by spectators. The second brace, consisting of J. E. Terry’s English setter bitch Countess | Lou, handled by Coutts, and B. J. Baum's English setter dog Starlight Jr., handled by Lucas, were taken to a new location and ran thirty minutes | without any results as to bird work. Lou showed best in range and speed, while Starlight Jr. had a slight advan- tage as to style. In speed and range he was somewhat constricted, and suf- | fered somewhat in these respects when | compared with his bracemate. T0 GLENWOUD, SALABLE, AN OVERLOOKED OUTSIDER, WINS GALLOPING IN RECORD TIME ing Lays 25 to 1 Againstthe Speedy Two-Year-Old and He Leads Throughout---1 Know Is Heavily Backed and Beats Her Field I Hands Down---The Mighty Loses to Judge by a Very Short Nose el Speculation on two-year-old events is always brisk, and the one decided at Oakland yesterday was no exception. Betting had not progressed long before it became apparent that Meada, a black filly by Figaro-Afamada, - owned by Bianchi & Co., was the real hot one. The ring was deluged with coin until the little Miss closed almost equal choice with M. A. Powell, the favorite on form. Meada did well for a begin- ner at the game, but could finish no closer up than third. The winner turned up in Salable, a 98-pounder, ridden by Crosswaite, which not only galloped in first, ahead of Ragamanda, at odds of 25 to 1, but at the same time equaled the California record of :41% for three and a half furlongs. M. A. Powell ran fourth. There was no trace of the light down- pour of rain, and the track could not have been better. The attendance was excellent, the books did a thriving busi- ress and four public choices landed in front. On form Pure Dale, the hard luck lit- tle Purvear D gelding. looked best of the eleven starters in the opening sprint at six and a half furlongs, and closed a mild favorite, backed from 3 to 13 to'5. The Miller and Flyer were the next most fancied. At the start Hildebrand lost no time in going to the front with Pure Dale, and rating his mount well put him over the line half a length ahead of Yellowstone, a 7 to 1 chance. Emily Oliver, a 15 to 1 shot, ridden by Foley, led out Our Pride for the show. It looked like stealing lead pencils ¢ from a blind man getting 9 to 5 about I| & Know to win the six and a half furlong spin, and the mare won at leisure. She closed at 7 to 5, and Hildebrand, who had the leg up, took matters as quietly as if seated on the back of McChesney. He ‘was pocketed for a time, but got through three-sixteenths from home and downed Louis Wagner, with con- siderable to spare. Rollick, under poor handling, finished a good third. Only a nose separated the favorite, Glendenning, and Escalante, the Patten entry, at the finish of the Futurity sprint, fourth to be decided. The race had a most open look, and Mimo, Jane Holly and Scotsman, besides Esca- lante, were all well supported. Larsen nursed Glendenning along superbly, After a short run of five minutes atand holding out a pound or two for the bevy was seen running from cover to | more open ground, whence they flushed | when the handlers and dogs came up, taking to some trees which skirted the field. An attempt was made by spec- | tators to force the birds from their re- treat while the dogs were being worked | over the field, but it was impossible to drive them to good cover. Cuba’'s Cottonwood, a pointer dog owned by the Stockdale Kennels and handled by N. M. Dodge, and Charles C ggins’ English setter bitch Miss Nel- son, handled by Lucas, constituted the third brace, and were put down in a heavy cover along a dry slough bed. on after starting Cottonwood ran | through a bevy which was hiding in a | dense growth of high grass, and al- though the birds flushed in all direc- tions he failed to catch scent of the | bevy and passed on down the slough | bed. Both dogs showed nice action, | with fair speed and range, but came in to their handlers quite often, which may be accounted for by the nature of | the cover through which they ran. Both were stylish in their way of going, but unfortunate as to further opportunities op birds, They ran forty minutes. A stop was now made at Gosford's ranch, where lunch was partaken of, after which J. W. Considine’s English | setter bitch Hick’s Bab, handled by Coutts, and the Stockdale Kennels’ pointer dog Cuba’s Glenwood, handled | by Dodge, were taken several miles west of Gosford's and put down on a wide expanse of open territory con- | taining nice cover and ran forty min- | utes. This was one of the best braces of the day, both dogs ranging out fast and wide and quartering nicely to take | advantage of the cool northwest wind which was blowing. The setter showed a slight superiority as to range, al- | though that of both was excellent, and both made nice casts to likely ground, pinch outfinished Waterbury, astride Escalante, receiving a nose decision. Jane Holly led- Mimo out for third place honors. Scotsman ran an inexplicably bad race, considering the fact that * i flushed ahead of her, while Glenwood showed his training by rooding care- fully on the scent of running birds, finally ending with a stanch point, which Bab backed for a few moments when she moved up. Dodge flushed the birds and shot and both dogs were steady. Sent after birds which had scattered on a knoll covered with alkali weeds, Bab rooded to several birds, which she flushed as soon as she located them. Glenwood soon secured an- other point, holding it well and being steady to shot. Bab finished up the heat by running over several more birds. after which she pointed mo- ‘mentarily and then went to a flush. Aside from her unsteadiness on game, which may be corrected by more ex- perience, she is a promising bitch and should train on to make a good one. Glenwood’s work on birds was the redeeming feature of the day's work. which was in all rather discouraging, owing to an oversight of Trainer Lu- cas, who failed to have C. E. Wor- den’s pointer dog, Sandlewood, on the grounds. The running of the stars, Rod-Sandlewood, heat was postponed until to-morrow morning, and W. W. Van Arsdale’s English setter bitch, Keepsake, handled by Charles Bab- cock, and W, B. Coutts’ pointer dog, Glenrose, handled by Charles Coutts, were put down where the preceding brace was taken up. Both dogs show- ed excellent speed and range, that of Keepsake being especially good. This bitch is the smallest competitor in the trials, scaling less than twenty-five which indicated the possession of con- siderable bird sense. In speed they were about equal, while in style Bab excelled, as Glenwood was inclined to Yfun with a rather low head at times, which detracted somewhat from his ap- pearance. At the further end of the field the dogs commenced making game and ! after working out a little bit of cover in a hole crossed the railroad track and commenced rooding on foot scent of running birds. Bab proved un- steady on a portion of the bevy, which ADVERTISEMENTS. CaneEroUS ULGERS ROOTED IN THE BLOOD. . After the age of 45 or 50, when the vital powers are naturally weaker, it is noticed that a hurt of any kind heals slowly and often a very insignifi- cant scratch or bruise ‘becomes a bad ulcer-or sore. At this time of life warty growths, heal. moles and pimples that have been on the body almost from birth begin to inflame and fester, and before very long are large eating ulcers, ‘Whenever a sore or ulcer is that has been slumbering there and breaks out and becomes a to give in pounds, but she runs with surprising ease and grace and reminds one of her famous dam, Champion Peach Blos- som, whose recent running in Eastern trials is still fresh in the memory of field trial patrons. The pointer, too, proved himself a good one, and together the dogs work- ed out a considerable extent of terri- tory. Just before crossing the rail- road track to where birds flushed in the preceding heat had taken refuge in fine, low grass cover, a number of birds were flushed by’ spectators, al- though the dogs had run over the same ground just a few moments pre- vious without locating. For some rea- son or other, after crossing the track, the scattered birds could not be found until after a considerable interval a number were flushed by spectators. Keepsake coming up caught scent of a few birds hidden in a clump of weeds in a dry slough bed and after | pointing rather undecidedly for a few seconds left for other parts, when the birds were flushed by the fleld trial party working over a knoll into a hole containing heavy cover. Glen- rose pointed three birds and was steady to shot and flush; down thirty- eight minutes. § “This ended the work for the day, as owing to the lateness of the hour it was found impractical to put down another brace on grounds some two miles distant. An early start will be made to-morrow, Judge Bell's inten- tion being to run the dogs on grounds closer to town and give them the ad- vantage of the time gained in this way. It is conceded that a heavy rain is needed in order to insure passable scenting conditions, as it is almost impossible to secure any point work from fleld dogs at the present writ- ing. Soon after , the alkali dust, which they distrust, arises in a cloud, filling their n and making it almost impossible to scent birds. Given-a heavy shower to settle the dust and it is reasonable to expect that some high cl work the dogs will follow improved conditions. o+ — ; SAN FRANCISCO CALL'S RACING FORM CHART.

An exceedingly close fit was the fin- ish between The Mighty and Judge. These two corking good three-year-olds clashed in the seven-furlong purse run, and The Mighty, with Larsen in the saddle, went to the post favorite at odds of 4 to 5. Mike Daly liked the chances of the Judge, and the black colt’s price dropped from twes to 9 to 5. Larsen assumed the front position in the stretch, when Judge, under Johnny Daly’s clever handling, gradually closed on him and in a hard drive beat the favorite out about six inches ig 1:26%. Hugh McGowan, a 30 to 1 shot, took the show from Solanus. A bad mix-up at the start of the con- cluding mile and seventy-yard selling number nearly gave the race to Kitty Kelly. - As the barrier was released Stuyve, the first choice, swerved to the outside, preventing all of the starters but Kitty Kelly from getting away. The outsider cut quite a swath out in front for a time, when the favorite picked up the running and galloped in first. Rey Dare ran third, half a length behind Kitty Kelly. Ben MacDhui had no chance with the break. NOTES OF THE TRACK. Bell is riding consistently if not bril- lantly. ¥ Hildebrand piloted three winners. Harry Robinson, trainer of Optimo, 8ot busy after the finish of the third event. First he bid 'up I Know from $400 to $1200, but the stable showed no inclination to let the mare go. Harry then claimed Louis Wagner, owned by McAllister & Co., which horse was in to be sold for $400. McAllister & Co. do not fare so badly, though, as Wag- ner finished second in the race and the firm receives half of the run-up money. “Silver Bill” Riley, the veteran auc- tion pool selier and bookmaker, will cut in at Oakland to-morrow. Henry Spencer is back from Los An- gelds and will shortly be ‘seen in the saddle here, A cluster of crack sprinters start in the six and a half furlong handicap this afternoon. ¢ Jockey S. Bonner has been here for some days. The colored rider met with an accident while playing baseball, and his employer, Charles McCafferty, will flot permit him to accept any mounts until fully recovered. ‘Willie Sink will sell all of his horses in training and leave for France. Prince Poniatowski secured a position in’ France for Willie as a trainer at a salary of $12,000 a year. Bookmaker Gus Bluhm of Chicago is here, but does not intend to cut in.

The result was that the books held a goodly balance in their favor when the programme was finished. The initial race was a surprise to the talent, Toto Gratiot, at 10 to 1, beating a very ordinary field. Effervescence was second and Evander, the favorite, third. Peggy Mine was held at 4 to 5 for the two-year-o!d dash. There was a strong play on Melar, which was back- ed down from 3 to 1 to 8 to 5. Peggy Mine won handily, Melar second, Woodglaim third. Another strong ravorite, Eugenia B, at 1 to 2, won the third race at five furiongs. Ocyrohe was second, Lady Usk third. Ocyrohe was played down from 20 to 1 to 15 to 1, then drifted back to 20 to 1. He ran a good race. The fourth race. a mile selling event, went to Henry Clay Rye, at 8 to 1. Lu- nar, the strong favorite, was second: Greenock third.
