J. Mackey and Neil Haig. - The latter ranks second to | W. 8. Buckmaster of England, who is | considered the world's greatest poloist. Mr. Haig weighs 230 pounds, and how | fourteen and a half hand poniés carry him in a fast game is difficult to un- derstand. As a preliminary to the coast cham- pionship polo tournament, which opens at Del Monte on the 18th inst., a series | of games wili be played at Burlingame to-morrow, Thursday and Sunday. Six- teen players, divided into four teams, y | will take part and the outcome will give a line on the possible strength of the Burltngame represeutatives in the international mate All critics of the game agree that the Burlingame men have gone in too | ch for individual playing to the \neglml of team work.

A deputy sheriff who went to arrest a guard was killed. The clash was the culmination of trouble between union and non-union labor. Three of the dead men were killed by guards employed by the Coal Creek Coal Company, and the fourth victim, a deputy sheriff, was killed by a guard he had gone to arrest. The dead: MONROE BLACK, miner, aged 24. ‘W. W. TAYLOR, miner, aged 31. JACOB SHARP, a bystander. DEPUTY SHERIFF ROBERT 3. HARMON, killed by Calburton, a guard at Briceville mine. The wounded: A. R. Watts, a merchant at Coal Creek, an innocent bystander, shot through both cheeks. Mote Cox, miner, shot through left arm. Jeft Hoskins, engineer on the South- ern Railroad, slightly wounded. Guards were at the rafiroad station to meet non-union men. Small boys velled “scab” and it is said the guards were insulted or an attempt made to take the non-union men away from them. Jud Reeder, in command of the guards, and another guard, drew their, pistols and began shooting, Reeder do- | ing most of it. Miners and bystanders were taken by surprise and before they could realize what had happened the guards had climbed into their wagon and driven back to the mines. About 12 o’clock a dispute arose between Dep- uty Sheriff Bob Harmon and Guard Calburton. Calburton shot Harmon twice, killing him instandly, Sheriff Moore has asked for troops in view of the resultant excitement, and Governor Fraser has ordered the Second Battalion of the Third Regi- ment, Knoxville, to'be in readiness to g0 to the scene, — “Did you go into the poker game with those strangers?” “Well, at the time I thought I went in, but as I think it over now I in- cline to the belief that I was tl.knn in." —Chicago Post. 0TED POLOIST |DE (!

When the decid- | ing course was run Renegade Apache carried off first prize, with Racing Auto as runner-up. The coursers deserved all the honors they won, as they ran in great form throughout the day. ‘Thé bright sunshine during the after- noon enticed a big crowd to the park, and betting was lively from the outset. About twenty short-enders got away with the coin, some of them being big and juicy surprises. Renegade Apache was a 1 to 6 choice in the deciding course, and when the dogs were slipped he showed he was worth the price. He led Racing Auto from the first and never allowed his kennel mate a point. He took many turns out of the hare and succeeded in killing before Racing Auto had secured a good start. Many figured Eagle would have a swell chance in the final going, but Racing Auto simply did a cakewalk with him in the semi- final round and killed the hare without half trying. Eagle had just come in from a severe trial with Free Born, and he was led twenty lengths. He ran slower with every bound, as his strength was gone and he tired quickly. Following are the day's results in de- tail, with Judge P. J. Reilly’s official scores: Open stake, first round—Texas Jill beat Our Motto, 21-14; Cubanola beat Lily Wright, 5-0; Richard Anfon beat Snapper son,” 5-0} Apple Blossom beat Amandan, 7-b: Ragtime beat Fancy Free, 6-5; General wet a bye; Emin Bey beat Agitator, 8-0; Vandal beat Cascade, 7~ udson beat Young Johnnie Rex, beat Bill Dugan, 7-4; Palo Alto rticle, 4-2; Cloudburst beat Sem- Heien Hayes beat Clarice, * the Glem, 6-2: ronius, 35. enegade Apache beat Maid John Heenan, 4- High Born bea r beat Barefoot B beat Gilmore Girl, 8-3; bye: Ordinance Melrose y, 9-8; Clover- Little Plunger Aggle w, Hoo, dale a beat 7-0; beat Texasé 18-5; Colored Lady beat 5-0; Racing Auto beat Reta S, Rocker Arm beat Fenii, 5.3 Free Born beat Nioble, §-2; Fair Tralee b 4-0; Free From Flaw beat Texas Bt Donnybrook beat Nellie Wise, 4-0; Eagle beat Pepper Jack, 6-0; Mellinwood beat Irvington Tralee, East Lake beat Pepper Hill, 20-11.

INSURING CURRENCY IN TRANSMISSION Banks Even Guard Against Loss of Money Shipped by Registered Mail Service. The careless way with which large packages of bank notes were tossed through the windows of the New York postoffice recently for transmission to out-of-town points has excited the wonder of persons familiar with the risks involved and the sums at stake. The movement is specially heavy just now, aggregating from $3,000,000 to $5,000,000 a week, and including con- signments from most of the large banks and banking houses in the city. The currency is sent everywhere in single packages, containing $10,000 or less, protected by policies of insurance pro- tecting the owners against every pos- sible hazard at rates varying from 15 to 80 cents per $1000 of currency in- sured. Most of the notes are five, ten and twenty dollar denominations, be- sides supplies of ones and twos for use as “hand-to-hand money” for crop movement purposes. These transfers go to all sections of the United States, Canada, Great Brit- ain and to continental points. The business has now grown to large pro- portions, and is written by some of the strongest insurance companies of ope and America. One very inter- esng claim pald a few days ago was the loss of a parcel containing $2700 4n bank notes shipped through the mails by a Canadian institution. The destination was a small postoffice where the business was go light that the postmaster, not having the use of a safe in which to store valuables, was forced to take home every night unde- livered registered mail that arrived during the day. The package of bank notes was taken out of the office in this way, and just before the post- master reached home he was attacked by footpads and relieved of the money. The loss was immediately reported, and the insurance company at once re- imbursed the institution, at the same time offering $500 reward for the de- tection of the thiéf. The case has not been cleared up yet. Packages containing $20,000 of in- sured bank notes were on the train that went through a bridge in a South- ern State recently. New York under- writers were much concerned over the incident until they discovered that the car in which the insured packages were stored remained safe on the rails. The largest single risk ever written was taken in England some time ago, when one package containing $25,000,000 was insured. —————e———————— Warming to the Shoulder. The Duzens are very proud of their little Eddie. They never negiect an opportunity to show him off. The other evening they were exhibiting him to a company of his sister’s guests when one of the young women asked him for a kiss, which he refused. “What?” said she. “Are you going to_give me the cold shoulder?” Eddie brightened up and rather irrel- evantly said: “Mr, Spooner gave sister Edna the cold shoulder last nwu. l peeked through the keyhole and sa her warming it with her W('.a.m change. Course and Finally Beats Full Moon in Final Round FAVORIT%‘.S SHOW UP WELL Lively Hares Lead the Dogs Many Long Chases Around Field at Ingleside Park ————— Ingleside Park was the tcene of a great day's coursing yesterday gnd the large crowd of enthusiasts that turned out to see the greyhounds run received more than the worth of its money. Quita won the stake after a severe trial with Full Moon in the deciding course of the stake, the score bein; 6 to 1. In fact Quita ‘was given many a hard run all along the line unti]l she finally won out. In nearly every course the Sacramento greyhound had to keep in the going every moment. This she did gamely. It was a good day'for those who backed the favorite, while the wise ones who were playing the likely short-enders were doomed to disap- pointment in almost every course, The hares were exceedingly lively and kept the hounds running at a fast clip throughout the day. Following are the day's results, with Judge Thomas Tierney's official scores: Open_stake, first round — Roy Hughle beat Fairy Belle, 5-1; Ione Hill beat Lnuok’ Luey, #3: Quita beat’ 0dd Eyes 4-3; beat Haddi 5-0; Harlean Grand l‘-r 1, 4-2; Tamoro beat 5-0; ty Helen beat Crenlnk. 5-0 Equatos Past Comigus, 6-0; Honsee Bey bas McHenry, Goid Chain beat Royal Friend, 5-0: Boots beat Van Alba, 5-0; Laughing Water beat Slievenamon, 4-0; Rich Argosy beat Texas Jim, 8-0; Terah beat Golden Rule, 2-0; Ragged Actor beat Menlo Prince, 3-2; Mountain~ Poet beat Miss Gantz, 5-0; Liy York beat Mi Amigo, 3-1; Glaucus beat Tralee Lass, Mollile Mac beat Promethe 5-2; Conroy at Glancing Pasha, 4-2; urns beat Raby Aurora, 5-0; Full Moon beat CI rm- ing Thought, 6-4; Advance Guard beat Meddle- some, 8-4; Belfast beat Rose of Gold, 3-1; Ploughman beat Walter G, 23-T; Troublesome beat Viking, 5-0; Rector beat Firm Fellow, 52 Yellowtail beat Frisco Lad, 5-4; Presidio beat Vina, 6-0; Silver Cloud bcll Adonis, P57 Panote Hughie, beat basha Plossant.

At the California Club courts reveral good matches were played before the courts became too wet. Will Taylor and Gus Taylor were the |star performers of the day. They meét Chester Smith and Bidney Salisbury in a good two-set match. The losers were by no means at their best, but nevertheless the victory of the Taylors was a well-earned one. They played good, steady teams and outclassed their opponents from - the start. Never after the first two games was the outcome in doubt. Will Tay- lor's net work was particularly good, while his handling of deep lobs was the feature of the match. His brother executed many clever drives and was litde behind the ex-champion of the coast in point of skill. Later in the day Salisbury and 8mith showed remarkable improvement when théy defeated Ray Cornell and Drum- mond MacGavin. The winners taok the first set with the loss of only two games. With the score 5-2 against them, Cornell and MacGavin braced and annexed the nmext three games. This brought, the score to 5-5. At this point the rain set in and interrupted further play. In theplo:ly three-set match of the day Sidney Salisbury and Harry Rolfe won from Paul Jones and Carl Gard- ner. The outcome of this match was in doubt until the last point had been won. Jones and Gardner won the first (27._W. set easily. Their driving and smashing were particularly good. In the next two sets Rolfe and Salisbury were in- clined to take more chances. which proved the more successful style of play They won the second set, 6-4. In the third set Jones and Gardner nearly won, requiring only one point to win at 5-4 and 40-30. Rolfe and Salisbury, however, took the next two games and match.

A team of eight Thistles played a friendly game against the Pickwicks, neither side securing a goal. The Thistle team was made up of W, McGregor, goalkeeper; Taylor, back; Duncan, J. McGregor and A. Disher, halfbacks; Smith, King and T. 8. Lydon, forwards. During the first half Lyden made several shots at the goal, but none of them went between the posts, Knight stopping them with great success. In the second half the Pickwicks nar- ugust | rowly missed scoring on more than one occasion, but the game ended with no score for either side. The Pickwick team lined up as follows: Knight, goal- keeper; Bouton, leftback; Conway, rightback; A. E. Bowcock, left half- back; Watson, center halfback; Todd, right halfback; Murdock, outside left; ‘W. T. Bowcock, inside left; Cowan, cen- ter forward; Warren, inside right; Rob- ertson, outside right. Hugh William- son acted as referee. In the morning a Vampire team pleyed a practice game on the Alameda grounds against the Hospital Corps of Alameda. The Vampire team included three first eleven men and won, four goals to two. Shortly after 2:30 p. m. on the Ala- meda grounds the ball was kicked off in the match between the Albion Rov- ers and the Pickwicks, C. W. Irish be- ing the referee and the linesmen being Arthur Robinson and D. Jamieson. After a few minutes’ play the Rovers put the ball into the net, but the referee gave offside against them. Similar luck shortly afterward befell the Occiden- tals. Later the referee awarded a free kick at goal within the penalty area to the Occidentals, who scored. A sec- ond goal was declared offside and the first period ended with one goal for the Occidentals against nothing for the Albion Rovers. In the last three min- utes of the second half Tweedie put the ball into the net for the Albion Rovers and the match ended in a tie. During the latter part of the second healf- John played forward for the Rov- ers, Duquesne taking his place at back. Almost at the end of the game Lan- caster and Higgins came into collision, Higgins being knocked out and getting severely injured about the eye. The game throughout tended to be some- what rough, the players being encour- aged in this respect by the ill-timed suggestions of their supporters on the sidelines.

A Jamaican woman who was travel- ing out West some time ago heard complaints about the swarms of ants which infested every house and got into all the food. ““There is a very simple remedy.” she told her Western friends. “Rub chalk on the legs of the cupboard. The ants cannot crawl up over the chalk.” Lime juice or lemon juice is the West Indian housekeeper’s best friend. Should any of the house linen or wear- ing apparel become mildewed in rainy weather a little lemon juice and a lit- tle common salt will soon make the spots disappear. This receipt appears to be unknown in this country, and mildew is too often regarded as a thing impossible to remove. Even the pro- fessional laundries nearly always send home clothes without removing the mildew spots from them. Many a shirt waist or other article of apparel is thrown away solely for this reason while it is still perfectly fit to wear. If the American housekeeper will try 1a# | this West Indian recipe she will get rid of an enemy hitherto regarded as un- ‘conquerable. So far as is known, noth- ing else will remove mildew. ‘West Indians have several good re- cipes for keeping mosquitoes out of the house. Although they live in a mosquito-haunted region, they are much less bothered by these pests than people are in the subtropical parts of the United States. A favorite recipe is to pluck a pumber of castor oil leaves and twigs and place them about the house. A bunch is placed over the dining-room table and another bunch over each of the beds. Mosquitoes love the leaf of the castor plant, and they collect upon it and leave the family alone.—Washington Star. ——e—— “The only man whose job I envy,” remarked the passeager with a skull cap, “is the p! lent.” “I wouldn't take his job and re- sponsibility and worry for all the sal- ary he gets,” said the passenger in the long brown ulster. “You wouldn't?

A. .—.—_ Prize Fight Promoters Deecide to Perfeet an Organization for Their Speeial Benefit WILL CONTROL THE SPORT —_— Officers and a Board of Direet- ors Are to Be Eleeted at a Special Meeting To-Night RS T As a result of the action taken by the Pacific Athletic Association in sus- pending the prompters of the last fight given under the auspices of the Lin- coin Athletic Club, together with the principals who took part in the affair, the amateur fight .managers have de- cided to break away from the associa- tion and will form an organization among themselves to control the ama- teur boxing game in this city and in Oakland. Such was the decision reached by the managers of the various clubs yester- day. Those interested in the movement include the Bay City Club, Lincoln Club, San Francisco Club and Hayes Valley Club, all of this city, and the Sequola Club and the West End Club of Oakland. The managers of each organization say they have determined to see the thing through and will break away from the P. A. A, any cost. It is understood that the promoters of the Lincoln Club are at the bottom of the plot. They became angry at the registration committee of the associa- tion when that body suspended them and their boxers for alleged profes- sicnaiism and quietly tipped it around nlnn they would not submit to the pen- alty. The Lincoln Club has advertised a bout for this week. aithough its licenge has been temporarily suspended and it has no authority to hold such an exhi- bition. When the association enembers heard of this they stated they would suspend the Lincoln Club permanently and would impose a heavy fine on its managers before letting them back into the fold again. The managers of the club were se- er=tly plotting against the association, with the result that they succeeded in getting the other clubs interested in the new movement, and therefore the forming of a new association is prac- tically an easy matter. Under the new regime the clubs will have to pay only a small sanction fee and the new asso- eiation will not trouble itself about any other sort of sport outside of boxing. At the last meeting of the association the board of managers decided to ap- point a special committee to look out for boxing and t6 admit all the boxers into the association under a separate head. When the fight clubs heard of this it may have prompted them to or- ganize among themseives, for they thought as long as the association is about to form a separate department for the boxers they might as well have control of it themselves. ‘The representatives of all the clubs will meet to-night at 8 o'clock at the clubrooms of the Hayes Valley Club and will form a permanent organiza- tion. Officers and a board of directors will be elected and the new organiza- tion will then apply for a charter as an amateur association. The present move is considered a mere subterfuge on the part of the box- ing clubs. They want to pay young Woys a vittance and use the cloak of amateurism to keep down the monmey value of prizes. At the same time they evade the city ordinance which limits professional boxing contests to one a month. To all intents and purposes the majority of their contests come under this head. Boxing does not lend itself to ama- teurism, as a man sacrifices more self- respect when he sustains a defeat in the ring than he would in one on the cin- der path. There must be some recog- nized authority. As it has been impos- sible in the past to keep these pro- moters within the rules, it is difficult to see how they will improve conditions when they hold the reins of govern- ment. ———————— ST.
