Martin’s lethargic spell continued on to the next race, his effort on Nonie being extremely ludicrous. The mare opened an 8 to 5 favorite, receding to 13 to 5. Jack got her away from the post poorly and apparently made no endeavor to win. This made it possible for a “killing” to be made on Titus, a gelding owned by Dan Meek and ridden by Tommy Butler.

Byronerdale had a slight call as the horses were called out and fin- ished second. Keynote, which won a race on the previous day, was again successful. “Doc” Kyle's horse, with C. Smith on his back, passed the fa- vorite on the far turn and was only galloping at the wire. Frank Woods, carefuly ridden by Martin, ran a close third. SRR DL Burglar Caught at Work. A young man named Richard Moore was arrested last night by Police Of- with burglary. Moore was discovered in a room occupied by Richard Nel- son in the Prescott House on Kearny street. Nelson's wife, who is a large woman, caught him at work, and, pouncing on the hapless burglar with | her 250 pounds avoirdupois, sat on him until help arrived. Moore had se- cured seven cigars and a pair of wool- en socks. He is believed by the police to be the man who has been robbing hotel rooms in that part of town for some time past. In a letter advocating a plan for the establishment in England of a great scientific school Lord Rosebery says: “It is little short of scandalous that our ambitious youths should be obl to resort to the United States and Ger- many’ for technical training.” “HLDY” PILOTS FOUR WINNERS Carries Off Jockey Honors| Cleverly in the Competition ; at Ascots Park Race Track | STUYVE IS INJURED) Although Cut Down at First Turn He Is Beaten but Half a’ Length for the Stake P A LOS ANGELES, March 5.—The San Pedro selling stakes at one mile, the gross value of which was $1760 and the net $1390, was won by Warte Nicht at Ascot Park to-day from | Stuyve and Rag Tag. Best Man, the fourth starter, lost his jockey at the first turn. It is probable that Stuyve would have won had he not suffered a bad cut on his left hind leg in the crowd- ing on the first turn. He ran a game race and was only beaten half a length. His owner says the injury is serfous and Stuyve wili be laid up for several months. Rag Tag was a close third at the finish. Mountain was badly shaken up by his fall from Best Man, but was able to ride in the last race. There was a big crowd in attendance and the books had plenty of cash to handle. Four favorites won, three of them being odds-on. The other two races went to second choices. Double O was played to win the hurdle event, but the weight was too much for him and he stopped badly in the last six- teenth, allowing Heir Apparent and Sir Hugh to beat him out. Katherine Ennis had an easy thing of it in the first race, winning by half a dozen lengths from Skirmish, with Andrattus third. Pat Bulger ran Golden Mineral to a close finish in the second race at five and a half furlongs. Foncasta was third. The time for the race was 1:07%. Hildebrand rode a /stirring finish in the fifth race on Iras, landing her first by a neck from Ultruda, with Pla- tonius third.

The course of the San Francisco Golf Club fs in an unplayable condition at present. It has been scored in every direction by the wheels of artillery and the hoofs of cavalry horses. The sur- face has been entirely destroyed in many spots and the undersoil exposed where cavalry horses have stood in groups. The water stands in deep holes and will disappear only by evaporation. Under such circumstances it is not to be wondered at that the golf handi- cap match play competition has not progressed far. The match between L. F. Monteagle and George E. Starr not having been played within the four days appointed for the first'round, both contestants have been disqualified. 8. L. Abbot Jr. thus takes his match in the ‘second round by default. R. I Bentley beat S. C. Buckbee 3 up 2 to play, and Perry Eyre defeated A. S. Lilley 2 up. Rolla V. Watt is matched against R. G. Hayford. In the third or semi-final round S. L. Abbot Jr. will play against R. L Bentley, and the winner of the Watt- Hanford match is matched against Perry Eyre. The matches in the sec- ond round must be concluded to-day, and four days are allowed for the semi- final round. AR or i o et e e A characteristic story of the late Sir Hector Macdonald is just told.

Britt went on the road yesterday morning for his usual jaunt of ten miles. After reaching his quarters he was subjected the rubdown. In the afternoon he donned the gloves with Landers and Rafael and set out a fast pace for his opponents. Fast work does not apear to make any dif- | ference to Jimmy even at this early stage of his training, and this is en- couraging to his admirers.
