J. Cronin’s Clever Young Courser Lowers the Col- ors of Fast Haphazard ————gy. James Sweeney's beautiful'greyhound Rubber Ankles and D. Walsh's famous | campaigner Sacramento Boy had a bat- tle royal yesterday on the field at Un- | ion Coursing Park. They met in the | third of the series of courses for the ! Grand National Champion stakes, and | it required five trials before a winner | could be named. Rubber Ankles won | the first two courses. Sacramento Boy | then evened the score by taking the | BeXt two courses, | This was apparently as far as the | up-country dog could go, ag he was | beaten in the decisive course after hold- | ing his opponent level to the hare. Rub- | ber Ankles led to the hare by a good margin in the first three courses. She | was led a length in the fourth course, and it was an even run-up in the fifth. | T. J. Cronin's promising young dog Hudson carried off the honors in the | reserve stake. He beat in turn Conroy, | Lulu Girl, Red Rock, Belle Free, Fonte- ! noy and in the deciding course Hap- | hazard. There was an element of luck {in the latter course. The score was | even when Haphazard caught the hare, jand a kill meant the long end of the | purse for his owner. Instead of killing | he let the hare escape him, and Hud- | son quickly scored a turn and the kill, | winning by a safe margin. | In the semi-final round Faraway led | Haphazard well, but the latter evened | the score, making it course. At the next attempt Faraway | bad lost all his bottled-up speed and | was beaten badly. Judge Reilly earned the applause of the spectators by de- | claring all bets off.

NATIONAL LEAGUE. NEW YORK, April 24.—Whether the playing of baseball in Greater New York on Sunday is illegal is to be de- cided on a test case, the first step in which was taken to-day under instruc- tions issued by Police Commissi: | McAdoo. At the outset of the gdne at Washington Park, Brooklyn, to-day the police arrested Pitcher Poole ahd Catcher Jacklitsch of the home team and Frank Roth of the Philadelphia team after the first named had pitched the second ball. They were charged with violation of the Penal Code which prohibits racing, gaming and other public sports on_the first day of the week. Manager Hanlon of the Brook- lyn team then substituted Thatcher and Ritter as the local battery and the game proceeded without fur- ther interruption. Attendance, 11,000. Score: R. .

The fine weather attracted mnny! players to the Park and California Club l tennis courts yesterday. On the public | grounds a handicap doubles tourna- ment for the three-time cups was play- ed, while at the club courts the day was given over to practice. Twenty-six teams entered the doubles event and at the call of time late in the afternoon but four were left to com- pete for the cups. The successful teams were Norman Ambrose and Marius Hotchkiss, playing from scratch: A. Brabant and Stewart Gayness, playing from the “2-6” mark; George Bates and E. P. Finnegan, on the “4-6" mark, and Clarence Foley and Charles Dunlap, playing from '‘3-6" behind scratch. The handicapping was better than usual, as the scores show. No one of the four surviving teams has won the cups. The Baker brothers, the most heavily handicapped team, were beaten in straight sets by Ambrose and Hotch- kiss. * The latter took advantage of the odds allowed them and won in straight sets. The winners took all kinds of chances and broke up the steady game of their opponents. The first set went easily to Ambrose and Hotchkiss, but the second was close. ‘Will Allen and Clarence Griffin were called upon to give only “owe 3-6" to Dunlap and Foley, but the latter beat them easily. In the puppy stake at Ingleside Coursing Park yesterday F. Brown's fast young greyhound Humboldt made an impression on the people who keep tab on the dogs. The way he ran showed plainly he is a coming courser. Stake honors went to him by default. Fiddler, the runner up, was with- drawn. As the hare was liberated for the last course the dogs were started in pursuit, but in some manner the slips did not act. Fiddler was released, & but Humboldt's collar refused-to work. Fiddler ran up the field alone and was a long time in pursuit of the hare be- fore he drove it to the escape. He was then drawn and bets were declared off. ! Reckless Acrobat won the open stake, beating Bright Fortune without allow- ing her to score a point. A few short | ends landed, some of them being. hard { knocks for the talent. Foxhunter was | #he cause of much sorrow for the wise jones. In the second round, after an undecided course, he took Pasha Pleas- ant, a 1 to 5 favorite, into camp.

A large crowd witnessed an excit- ing lacrosse contest between the 'San Francisco and San Mateo teams yes- terday at the Presidio Athletic grounds. The home team won by a score of 5 to 1, but the playing throughout the entire game was even. The rural players lost more through poor luck than poor plaving. In the first quarter of the game neither side scored, and the ball was rushed back and forth many times across the field. The second quarter promised to end as the first, until Darragh, playing at inside home on the San Francisco team. landed the ball neatly inside the wicket of his opponents. Judge, playing second home, repeat- ed this in the third quarter, making the score 2-0 in favor of the home team. The third quarter was by far the most exciting part of the contest and several men were laid low by the flying sticks. From the sound of the whistle in the opening of the fourth and last quarter, the men nlayed furiously, and it looked for a while as if either side might score repeatedly. Crilly. playing outside home for San Fran- cisco, scored in the early part of the play, and followed this by making two more points, With the score -tnndlngl 5-9, and with but a few minutes |en| in which to play, Martin Lyons of the San Mateo team rushed the ball into | the wicket. He was unable to score again béfore time was called. The — Turner-Cordell Bout Is Promising. The Reliance Club of Oakland will next hold"the center of the pugilistic stage with an attractive double card on Wednesday night. It is expected there will be more actual fighting in the thir- ty advertised rounds than has been seen since the Britt-Corbett affair. Rufe Turner and Jack Cordell will be the principal attraction. The public frowns on return meetings as a rule and the only legitimate excuse for giv- ing a defeated boxer.another oppor- tunity to make good is a question as to how the previous bout should have end- ed. In the case of Turner and Cordell this doubt exists. The white boy had the going all his own way after the first round and up to the eleventh, when a well directed right hand swing put him down for the count. Careless- negs was responsible and Cordell has every right to the fight he will wage next Wednesday.

UBBER SHOOTING KING IS HENNINGER Carries Off the Title at Annual Competition of Deutscher Kreiger Verein AL GEHRET IS IN FORM Proves High Man With the Rifle in the Golden Gate Shoot at -Shell Mound g ot S The crack of the rifle was heard all day long yesterday at Shell Mound Park. From early morning until dark- ness obscured the targets the marks- men were busy in their attempts to place a good record to their credit. The day was an ideal one for target prac- tice and attracted an unusually large crowd of marksmen to the range. The principal event of the day was the King shooting of the Deutscher Kreiger Verein. About one hundred members of the company took part in the eévent. The target used consisted of a large wooden eagle, divided into dif- ferent sections, so constructed that when a particular spot was struck by a bullet the section would fall. As each part represented a prize there was cheering when a lucky marksman, by a well directed shot, brought a piece to the ground. When all but the last piece was shot away and the remnant of the target was adjusted for the King prize, excitement prevailed on the part of the marksmen and spectators. As shot after shot was fired and the King prize was struck several times without bringing it down the interest became intense. When Henry Henninger step- ped forward to try his skill he received encouragement from his comrades to make his best endeavor. After taking careful aim his shot rang out and down came the prize that made him King of the Kreigers for the ensuing year. He was welcomed on all sides as sovereign of marksmen and tri- umphantly carried on the shoulders of his comrades after he had been invest- ed with a wreath of roses and his in- signia of office. In the Golden Gate Rifle and Pistol Club contests Al. C. Gehret was high man with the rifle, making the good score of 232 rings in his 10-shot string. He also ran up a score of 1111 rings in his 50-shot entry. In the same club G. E. Frahm was high man at the pistol target with 91 rings to his credit on two different oc- casions. The organizations participating in the shooting were the Deutscher Krei- ger Verein, Red Men's Shooting Club, Golden Gate Rifle and Pistol Club, Ger- mania Schuetzen Club and San Fran- cisco Schuetzen Verein.

D, F. %6 Dogs’ Beauty Doctors. And now the dogs have their beauty doctors—that is, Paris dogs have them if their owners feel moved to pay the necessary fees for the attentions of the profession. Sooner or later everything that human beings find good is adopt- ed by or is thruct upod the dogs, es- pecially pet dogs, and, absurd as it may seem at first thought that a mas- seur for dogs should be able to earn his salt, it is easy to see, after a mo- ment’s reflection, that an unselfish mistress, knowing . the comforting power of massage, should want “dog- gle” to experience it, too. It's a far cry from the position in life that a dog who “‘sleeps out in the shed” holds to that of one who is massaged imto trimness and daintiness.~Boston Tran- script. -ANKLES SAILORS ENJOY INITIAL CRUISE San Francisco Fleet Takes First Outing of Season in Channel in Good Breeze WHITE WINGS DOT BAY Wind Falls Light and Tars Have to Await Turn of Tide to Make Moorings The opening cruise of the San Fran- cisco Yacht Club took place yesterday. At 11:45 a. m. Commodore W. G. Mor- row, on the flagship Challenger, set the signal “R. J. M.,” which, being inter- preted, signifies “Follow movements of the flagship.” Scarcely a breath of wind stirred the unruffled surface of the waters and the fleet lay idle at its moorings until about 2:30 p. m. During the long wait the members of the De Koven Club furnished much amusement by their funny stunts on the club wharf, while a gayly attired crew of bandsmen on board A. C. Lee's slcop Ariel rendered several popular airs on brass instruments. The breeze, when it did come, freshened rapidly and the flagship, followed by the sloop Nellie, flying Vice Commodore H. H. Jenness' flag, H. R. Simpkins’ yawl Tramontana, J. V. Coleman’s schooner Aggie, J. R. Hanify's schooner Martha, W. F. Burke's little yawl Witch, R. 8. Bridgman's sloop Thetis, the sloops An- nie, Curlew, Alice and Surprise, cruised toward Fort Point and almost out to Point Lobos. F. A. Hyde's motor boat Viadimir went out for a trip in the morning and again in tne afterncon. The breeze in the channel was steady and true, delighting the yachtsmen so much that they stayed too long. The wind dropped and the flood tide set most of the fleet to leeward of Alca- traz in the direction of Angel Island. Toward sundown a little breeze sprang up, but the yachtsmen were not able tc shape their course for Sausalito un- til the tide bezan to ebb at about 7 p. m. All the yachts, however, reached their moorings safely, though some- what late in the evening. The members of the De Koven Club were taken out for a cruise on F. A. Robbins’ launch Rob Roy, which land- ed them at Powell street wharf. or three of the San Francisco fleet are not yet in commission, but will be ready to sail in a week or two. M. A. Newell's new schooner Lady Ada was under sail yesterday, as also was the sloop Corinthian. Several well-known yachtsmen came over from Tiburon to Sausalito on Saturday night to attend the opening jinks, which were highly successful. ‘Among the visitors were Commodore T. Jennings, Vice Commodore J. C. | Brickell, Secretary E. J. Bowes, ex- Commodore E. F. Sagar, “Jack” and “Bunty” Short, F. E. Schober, Lester Hammersmith, Frank Stone, Douglas Ezskine and S. M. Marshall of the Cor- inthian Yacht Club. —————————— MODEL YACHTS ARE SAILED ON SPRECKELS LAKE WATERS The Piute, Owned by O. M. Forrest, Covers Course in Fastest Time of the Day. There was a good wind on Spreck=- els Lake in Golden Gate Park yester- day, when some fast races were sailed by the model yachts. The final race . of the trial heats of last Sunday re- sulted in a victory for O. M. Forrest's Piute. The winning boat finished 12 seconds ahead of the Sophie. The Al- batross was a poor third. The Amelia did not finish. The pennant for yesterday's races was won by J. E. Brannon's Sophie. The Sophie won easily from the Piute and Fannie. The Piute, however, had the distinction of making the best time of the day. She sailed the course in 4:36. The Sophie was second in 4:40. The second semi-finals was not held, the boats going into the finals being those finishing first and second in the first semi-finals, and Collier Brothers' Fannie, which was fouled at the finish of the course. Following is a summary of the races: FIRST TRIAL. A Complicated Love Affair. Disappointed in his love for a young lady, who preferred his friend, a well- known vainter in Florence last year entered the monastery of Ascali-Picer- no. The lady, on her part, disagreed with her flance and fell madly in love 5! With her confessor, to whom she fre- o quently confided her love troubles. Equally infatuated, the priest wrote a letter to his Bishop renouncing his orders, married his fair parishioner and is now on his honeymoon. Meanwhile this story came to the ears of the painter in his cell and de- cided him to give up mourning for his fickle sweetheart. He therefore secret- 1y left the monastery, says the Swiss Bund, and has now returned to his studio in Florence.—London Daily Mail. —_———————— ussia can point to only two occa- R Wi 1 3 e A it nkie Turkish squadron at Sinope, when the number of vessels was equal, though the latter were greatly inf and armament.
