CRESCEUS’ MILE DOWNS THE OREGON MARE MISTY'S PRIDE| NOT A RECORD Cloudlight Takes the Two - Year - Old Scramble. ———e The “yaller” horse, Money Muss, sporting the colors of Ed Gaylord, the wealthy Denverite, and Misty's Pride, | 664 the crack Oregon-bred mare from Sam ' g Jones’ stable, locked horns in the Fu- turfty course sprint at Oakland yes- terday and victory rested with the for- mer when the dust had cleared away. The betting favored Money Muss at odds of 7 to 5, and he was well ridden ! by Jones. For a time Misty's Pride showed in the lead, then the favorite charge of affairs and, though both were at the end, the latter reached the wire first by nearly a length. As the race was rum, John A. Scott, with good handling, would have | scored, but the show was the best he got. Splendid racing weather and an at- tractive card drew a large attendance. The track was fast and three favorites picked up purses. CASSIE W FADES AWAY. e W, from the stable of James \eulon was served fresh off the coals for the introductory sprint. The mare closed an 8 to 5 favorite and after showing speed for about a sixteenth of | a mile, faded away to a' whisper. Maud | Muller looked all over a winner, mhen Roach, on Rustic Girl, closed with a’ rush, earning a nose decision. Joe Jones, astride Step Around, took the show. No doubt if Jones was carded to ride | a Government mule his mount would be installed favorite. This is a high tribute to the lad’s skill, but misleading at times., Joe had the leg up on Meada, which opened an 8 to 5 choice for the two-year-old scramble. The flily looked a scarecrow, and her price receded to 13 to 5. She ran a poor race. Cloud- light, an 8 to 1 shot, with Reed in the saddle, ran away from her company, winning hands down from Head Dance in 4834 seconds. Marie J finished third. McBride landed Gold Finder first for the mile selling affair. The gelding went to the post a 6 to 5 favorite, and overhauling the pacemaker, Chileno, the last elghth crossed the line first by a length. Harry Beck, which lost ground by bolting at the start, came from the rear, running third. REY DARE JUST LANDS. With Nullah, Vasallo, Solon and Louis Wagner out of the way, Rey Dare Jooked the most eligible of the | six starters in the seven-furlong selling number. The Nealon entry enjoyed first call, but later, when a heavy play came in on Mocorito, it was 2 to 1 and take your pick. The latter mare at no time lgoked dangerous. Tom Slavin made all the running, and it took hard urg- ing on the part of C. Kelly to get Rey | Dare up in time to win by less than a length. Moor was third. If Crosswaite, who rode Illilouon, fa- vorite for the concluding mile and sev- enty yard event, had not been given a whip the chances are Billy Randall's gelding would have won. As it was, Roach made all the running with Hainault, downing the favorite by less than a length in a driving finish. Cross- waite drew his whip a furlong from if he had resorted to handriding the decision would unques- tionably have been reversed. The show fell to J. V. Kirby. NOT! OF THE TRACK. Jerry Roach piloted two winners. An excellent field starts this after- noon in the handicap at one mile and 100 yards. ENTRIES FOR TO-DAY.

OAKLAND, May 3.—Whether the good race horse Greenock belongs to the estate of the late Jockey Woods or is the property of the lad’s father, is the subject of a partment of the Superior Court. Mary A. Mithell, a sister of deceased, says the horse belonged to the boy, while the father and a second son say the horse is the property of the father. The amount of money earned by the little jockey was one of the points brought out, and it was shown that he received about $12,000 a year in the employ of the Schorrs. The sis- | ter maintains that the money-of her brother went to help the father, who | owned several horses, among which are Sherry, Marplot, Lecturer and McAlbert and which failed to win suf- | ficient to pay for their keeping. The estate of the jockey is valued at about $2500 and, according to the sister, Greenock is rightfully an asset of the estate. She says that owing to a request of her father she failed to include him as a part of the estate in her first inventory. ————— “Ye Eschscholtzia Minstrels.” The association of young men which for many months, as the Eschscholtzia Club, gave most delightful socials in the Mission district will to-morrow [ night appear at the Mission Opera Hall as “Ye Eschscholtzia Min- strels” for the entertainment of their many friends.

ORDERS RAILROAD COMPANY TO REFUND PRICE OF LAND James Cook Secures Judgment for $1600, With Interest, Against the Corporation. The Southern Pacific Railroad Com- pany must refund to James Cook $1600 he paid the corporation for land in Los Angeles County in 1898, with interest on that sum from that date. Judge Seawell so decided yesterday, basing his holding on the recent de- cision of the United States Supreme Court, which declared that the South- ern Pacific had no claim to the land it sold to Cook and E. T. Barber, and therefore could not perfect a sale. Is Thrown Out by the Board of Appeals of Ameri-| can Trotting Association | RULES NOT OBSERVED (Claim Is Made That Timers Were Inexperienced and Used Borrowed Watehes CHICAGO, May 3.—The board of ap- peals of the American Trotting Asso- ciation at a meeting here to-day re- fused to recognize the record of 1:59% claimed to have been made by the trot- ter Cresceus on the grounds of the Wichita Fair last fall. The finding of the association follows: “From the evidence submitted by the Southern Kansas Fair Association, Wichita, Kans,, and George Ketcham, Toledo, we find that the performance of Cresceus on the grounds of the Wichita Fair Association on the 19th| of October, 1903, was not conducted in accordance with the rules of the Amer- ican Trotting Association governing performances against time, and that the time of 1:59% then and there claimed to have been made by said horse is neither a record nor a bar un- der the said rules. “It is therefore ordered and deter- mined that the application to establish such record be and the same is hereby denijed.” ‘W. P. Tjams of Indianapolis presided at to-day’s meeting. The board finished its work to-night and adjourned sub- ject to call. Two objections were filed to the al- leged record. It was claimed, first, that the trial was not properly advertised; second, that the mile was made in about 5 and wrongly announced at 1:59%, giving the stalllon a mark not rightfully his. A considerable number of horsemen who held watches on Cres- ceus are alleged to have caught his time all the way from 2:04% to 2:06. Those who made the fight against the allowance of the alleged record claimed that all three of the watches which took the horse's time were borrowed watches, and that not one was held by an experienced timer. They also de- clare this—a most significant circum- stance, if well founded—that each of the timers has declared that all three watches caught each quarter in the same time. Not among the best and most experienced timers In the United States has there ever been known such a condition of affairs. The best watches and the best timers will catch the quar- ters a fifth or a quarter of a second apart. —_—————————— COURT WAVES OLIVE BRANCH AND KEITHS ARE HAPPY Young People Take Judge Graham's Advice and Settle Their Differ- ences Without Divorce. Through the efforts of Judge Gra- ham the divorce action brought by May Kelth against Chester Keith on the ground of desertion has been dis- missed and a reconciliation effected. They were married at Colorado Springs in November, 1902. In the following April they came to this city to reside. After a short time they had a slight quarrel and separated and then came the suit for divorce. When they appeared in court a few days ago their testimony showed that neither was very anxious for a di- vorce, so Judge Graham suggested that the case be continued and he also suggested that efforts be made to bring the young people together again. The efforts were made, as was evidenced by the dismissal of the suit yesterday. Judge Murasky vesterday granted a motion to reopen the maintenance suit of Evelyn Marchand against Edward Marchand, of restaurant fame. The attorneys in the case desired an op- portunity to present argument on law points involved, hence the court’s or- der. The suit is the result of the pub- lication by Marchand of a notice that he would no longer be responsible for his wife’s debts. She asks for $300 a month. Decrees of divorce were granted to Lizzie Winders from David Winders for neglect and Leah H. Lyons from Alexander Lyons for neglect.

Lady Amelia, carrying pounds and favorite in the betting at 2 to 1 for the Williamsburg handicap, a spring affair for three-year-olds, ran a dead heat with Jaequin. Johnson’s colt was in at 116 pounds, and under a superb ride by O'Neill he lasted just long enough to get a deci- sion of a dead heat with the Thomas filly. Thomas did not want to run off the race, being willing to split the purse. As Johnson was confident his colt could win, he refused this offer At the start In the run-off Jacquin jumped into the lead shortly after the barrier was snapped and remained there to the end, winning easily by five lengths. Johnson had $2300 on his colt to win, and before the run-off he offered to bet $5000 even that Jacquin would defeat the filly. Outside this race there was no note- worthy feature to the card. Only one favorite won, although the track condi- tions were excellent. A big crowd wit- nessed the races.

Tait, composing the firm of Tait Bros. of the Olympic Club cafe, filed a petition in insolvency yesterday in the United States District Court. They owe $12,- 8567 and have $3958 assets. Of the indebtedness $1285 due to the Nathan Dohrmann Company and $1630 dut to W. & J. Sloane are secured. The ye- maining indebtedness is unsecured. The next heaviest creditors are F. Galli & Co., $1235, and B. Herman, $1530. A petition was also filed by M. J.° Garvin, cigar dealer, Stockton. His liabilities are $2934 and he has $381 assets. Henry Wadsworth, as receiver of the bankrupt estate of Jacob and Her- man Eppinger and Bernard Ettlinger, filed a petition yesterday with United States District Judge de Haven stat- ing that on April 7 he had an unex- pended balance of $75,372 belonging to the estate and that the creditors had voted unanimously’in favor of de- claring a second dividend of 5 per cent, which would use up that sum. It was further set forth that on De- cember 21 a dividend of 5 per cent had been declared by Bankrupt Referee Milton J. Green and that this also had been acceptable to the creditors. As the law specifies that no dividend of less than 10 per cent can be declared :lthmn an ott;lfir from the District udge, the petitioner asks Ju de Haven fo make such an 'fll«:.. DISLIKE JOHNSON'S WILL Order Made by Sloss Reveals Exist- ence of Dispute Over Former New Yorker's Estate. The $30,000 estate of W. H. John- son, formerly of New York, is the sub- ject of a dispute in the court in which Public Administrator Hynes, Mrs. Johnson, mother of the deceased: a sister of the deceased, and a woman named Mrs. Sutro are the contestants. The battle opened yesterday with the procurement from Judge Sloss by Hynes of an order directing Attorney W. F. Williamson to file the will of the decedent. It appears from the documents al- ready filed by the Public Administra- tor that Johnson, when he died here two years ago, left a will in° which he devised his estate to his mother and his sister and to Mrs. Sutro, the latter to receive half and the mother and sister each a quarter. The will was left in the possession of Williamson, who after communicating with the relatives of the deceased, received in- structions to withhold the will from the files. He did so, and when the Public Administrator, who only re- cently learned of the existence of the testament, made a demand that it b> produced Williamson still withheld, filing it only when Judge Sloss’ order was served upon him. The devise to Mrs. Sutro appears to be the cause of the oppesition to the will by Mrs. Johnson and her daugh- ter. No one to know who she is, and it is expected that when she makes her appearance in the case in- teresting developments will arise. —_—— “Mary Had a Little Lamb"” was writ- ten by Mrs. Sarah J.
