10 T HE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, JULY 13, 1904. HIGHBALL BREAKS HIS LEG AND ENDS CAR WILD THYME LOOKS SPEEDY, - BUT THE CRICKET FAMOUS HORSE RONS N0 NORE Flag Drops for Last Time on Highball and All Turf- dom Mourns for the Colt OWNER HAS HIM KILLED — Wonderful Racer Meets With the Fatal Accident While Coming in Stretch | | NEW YORK, July 12.—Highball, the | American Derby winner and one of the | best of the three-year-olds, broke his | leg at the ankle during the running of | the Seagate stakes at Brighton Beach | to-day. As Highball is insured for | )00, a message was sent to a rep- | resentative of the insurance company | in New York to come at once to look &t the Derby winner and end his agony, and Bud May, half owner of the horse, | finally consented to have him shot. ' | Only three faced the starter for the | Seagate stakes, with Highball fa\‘orl\e“ at 11 to 20. Highball showed in front | 10 the first turn. when he bore out, and | Odom had to hit him over the head to| keep him in. Knight Errant then as- | sumed the lead and showed the way to | the finish, winning. easily by two| lengths from St. Valentine. As the field swung into the !!r?t(‘h‘ Highball was seen to falter and Odom | &t once pulled him up and dismounted. | After several attempts to walk him off | the track a man held the broken leg | while a half dozen others pushed him to the infield, where his leg was strapped up so it could not touch the ground. He was then led to his sta- Ve | The famous horse, winner of many | good races last year and of the $26,- 000 American Derby. at Washington Park, Chicago, on June 18 last, was de- stroyed, his owners having taken pro- al advice from two veterinari- | , who declared that the double frac- | > of the pastern was so bad that it useless to attempt to save him 1l was insured by Lloyds of CRACK WING SHOTS ME IN TOURNAM T AT DENVER ¥red Gilbert Carries Off the First Honors With the High Score of 194. | Colo., July Tifty of best shots in the country tak- part in the third Grand Western | handicap, which began a three days’ | tournament at the grounds of the Den- | ver Trap Club here to-day.

Fifty years of Odd Fellowship was wcelebrated last night by Magnolia Lodge No. 29 of the Independent Or- der of Odd Fellows. At a downtown restaurant gathered nearly 150 of the 280 members of that subordinate, with Past Grand Master Willlam H. Barnes, Grand Treasurer J. W. Harris and Grand Secretary George T. Shaw, be- #ides several speclally invited guests. The tables, three in number, were most tastefully decorated with flowers, the main feature of the decoration, however, being hundreds of sweet smelling magnolias, symbolic of the mame of the lodge. The menu card, a pretty souvenir, was made more in- teresting by appropriate quotations from the poets, following the an- nouncement of each course. Edward R. Moss was the toastmaster and after the exclllent supper he called upon the following to respond to toests, after announcing that Grand Master J. W. Linscott of Santa Cruz was unable to be present by reason of iliness: Past Grand Master Barnes, Grand Secretary Shaw, Grand Treas- wrer Harris; J. K. Phillips, the only living member of the lodge of fifty years ago; Harry K. Wolff, noble grand of Bay City Lodge; Past Grand Frapk D. Worth and E. C. Stock. From the talks it appeared that the Jodge in its half century of existence distributed $79,000 in benefits to its members. This 4s part of $4,000,000 that the order has expended in the same work since its institution in this State. This Jodge will give an entertain- ment to-morrow night to its feminine friends in Native Sons' Hall. —_—— Giovanni Tezzi pleaded guilty in Judge Tunne’s court yesterday to a charge of hurglary and will be sentenced on July 20. He broke into the room of Henry Fick at 807 Kearny street on April 25 and stole some clothing and other arti- cles. —_——— There never was a heart truly great and generous that was not also tender &nd compassionate. ————— Taiebesrers are just as bad as tale- makers.—Sheridan.

Seattle made a desperate rally in the eighth, but closed one run short of ty- ing the score. Jay Hughes pitched a magnificent game for the home team, striking out eight men. In the last two Innings he fanned fiver Butler used nothing but a slow ball, yet the Siwashes could not hit it' safe. Dren- nan got six flles in center. Portland fielded in almost perfect form.

NEW YORK, July 12.—From start to finish the handicap at nipe fur- longs won by The Cricket caused much criticism. There was no pace whatsoever. he Cricket beat - the | barrier with Wild \Thyme off very badly. She caught the others on back stretch and with “Jack” Martin sitting | straight up in her saddle everybody shouted, “Wait until they reach the stretch, Wild Thyme will walk in.” But she didn’'t walk in, at least not !in front. The Cricket was never headed. Gold Money, Hildebrand up, came with a strong rush at the finish and was closing on winner. “The black and orange” of Joseph E. Seagram was in second race, when his undeniably good horse, Merry England, led all the way at a fast pace and defeated the favorite, Honiton, 1:12 4-5, for six furlongs.

CHICAGO, July 12.—Bragg and Hel- gesen formed a killing combination in the fourth race at Harlem & to-day. Backed from 9 to 2 to 5 to 2, Curl's ‘“rogue,” under severe punishment, got up just in time to win by a head in the final stride from Action. The struggle between these two lasted the full length of the stretch and Action had j the advantage to within three jumps of the wire, where Helgesen’s superior finish asserted itself. Bondage, always favorite at 9 to 5 backed from 2 to 1, was slow to begin. He could not make up the lost ground and finished tired, four lengths back. Ahola, an outsider at 17 to 1, and Warte Nicht set an early pace to the far turn, where Action took command | and led by a length and a half into the stretch. Bragg had moved up from fourth to second place at this point, and then the real struggle began. It was one of the hardest and gamest finishes of the meeting and showed conclusively what a good boy can do when the pinch comes. Beau Ormonde drifted up in the betting from 4 to 8 to 1 on account of the slow condition of the track, as he doesn’t like anything but a fast track. The weather was pleasant, and track in fair condition. Two favorites, two second choices and two “outsiders captured the money. Jockey Helgesen was fined $50 for fail- Ing to ride out Moorish Damsel in the fifth race. Patrol Judge Hughey Keough was ‘| thrown from his buggy at the head of the stretch during the running of the second race. He fell beneath his horse’s feet and received a fractured Jaw.

The President bases his claim on the allegation that the company gave material aid to the late revolu- tionary movement and especially to General Matos, whereby the Castro Government was put to the necessity of expending the sum of money named to suppress the rebellion. The suit is the culmination of a long series of litigations growing out of the claim of a rival concern—the Warner- Quinlan Syndicate—to part of the asphalt land at Felicidad.

MOUNT WASHINGTON, N. Y, July 12.—F. E. Stanley of Newton, Mass., who made the eight-mile as- cent of Mount Washington in 31 min- utes 15 seconds, breaking the previous record by 17 minutes 44 seconds, to- day lowered his own figures by nearly three minutes, going up the mountain in 28 ‘'minutes 19 2-5 seconds. Stan- ley's average speed was at the rate of 17 2-5 miles an hour. L. J. Phelps also beat his time made yesterday, going up the moun- tain in a little more than 44 minutes. A. E. Morrison of Boston with a twenty-four horsepower gasoline car broke all records for that class of ma- chines and nearly equaled in correct- ed time the work done earlier in the day by Stanley with a steam vehicle. He made the ascent in the actual run- ning time of 31 minutes 6 4-5 seconds, but was allowed two minutes on ac- count of having to turn out to pass a car ahead of him. This gave him a mark of 29 minutes 6 4-5 seconds. ‘Webb Jay, in a ten horsepower ma- chine, ascended the hill in 42 min- utes 15 seconds. ————— Angeli and Rafael Matched.

X BALL CRANKY HAPPY AGAIN After a Lapse of a Month Recreation Park Will Be Thrown Open Once More HOMECOMING A SAD ONE -— San Francisco Team Returns From North After Making a Disgraceful Impression! At Recreation Park will be thrown open! once more this afternoon and the fans | who have been longing for the time to | come when they might see baseball on the home green will feel glad that the | month of agony is up. It seems a long time since that old familiar cry of “Play ball” has resounded in the neigh- borhood of Eighth street and it will| undoubtedly sound sweeter than ever | when Umpire Tom Browne sings it out | for the first time in his life to a San Francisco crowd. But the homecoming of the San Fran- cisco team will not carry a bit of joy with it. All the honmest, hardworking fans vow they will not be on hand to see such a bunch of tramps perform. The record of the locals in the north| has been worse than disgraceful. The | team was bad enough when at home, but managed to win once in a while. Since leaving here it has acted almost criminally. Uncle’s bunch comes home just two | games shy of being in the cellar. It isi only a question of a few days when it will land there and there it will stay | as sure as fate. It's curtains with San Francisco and every local fan knows that much. For a time many thought we might be saved from the disgrace of being tail-enders, but there | is no chance now. | Oakland did not do so awful well ln! the north, but at that, it played a lit- | tle baseball occasionally.

Lohman has suffered a lot of | hard luck and if Dunleavy gets into| the game this week there may be sumel‘ fun. | Mike Fisher is to be congratulated on his success. His team is a wonder and every one knows it now. The Ti-| gers have proved the sensation of the season. They have played the kind bf baseball that wins pennants and the kind that the public likes to see. Every fan is willing now to doff his hat to Fisher and Charley Graham as well as to big Overall, Eagan, Doyle, Casey, Sheehan and the rest of the layout. Seattle struck its winning gait too late. The league sluggers slumped ! when they should have been playing the game and now they are paying for | their foolishness. Portland has proved | a surprise. The Brownies never quit | even when they seemed to be down and out and now their gameness is begin- ning to assert itself. Los Angeles is just about where it| belongs. The southerners never could strike their batting gait and you can't win ball games without numerous base | hits. The Angels were lucky to be in third place. Their fleetness of foot while on the bags was the only thing that saved them. San Francisco and Oakland will fur- nish the attraction this afternoon. The game will be called at 3:30, the usual | EER AS TURF STAR HANLON KEEPS [P GOOD WORK Li'ttle Featherweight Runs on the Road, Plays Ball and Then Goes for Swim NELSON APPEARS FAST Chicago Lad Goes Through His Various Stunts With His Trainers at Larkspur SRS Road running, baseball playing and swimming constituted Eddie Hanlon's first day's training in Alameda yester- day. In the morning the little boxer went out for a long spin on the high- | ways with Toby Irwin and Fred Land- ers, traveling as far east as Fruit- vale. In the afternoon Eddie partici- pated in .a game of ball on the big field in the rear of Croll's Hotel. He is almost as expert In swinging the bat and handling the sphere as he is in wielding the fists that have won him fame in the roped arena. After the baseball contest was over Hanlon took a dip In the bay and was then rubbed down. On Thursday Hanlon will commence his regular gymnasium stunts. He will punch the bag for fifteen minutes, skip the rope for the same length of time and wrestle and box with his training mates. Eddie has had a new punching bag installed in his gym- nasium. "It is of the pattern that is fastened at the top and bottom with elastic cords and is much faster and harder to judge on the rebound than the bag that is hung by a single cord. Hanlon expects the new bag will make him quicker and more accurate in de- livering blows. Battling Nelson put In another stren- uous day at his training quarters at Larkspur yesterday. This morning he tooly a run around San Quentin Point, a distance of about ten miles, accom- panied by Ted Murphy and Dave Barry. “Smiling” Metzner started with the | when the first half of the season closes | boys, but did not put in an appear- ance until many hours later. It was The greater part of the afternoon was devoted to boxing and shadow fighting. Nelson boxed four rounds each with Frank Newhouse and Frank Rafael, who join- ed the camp to-day. The weather was very warm yes- terday and Nelson perspired freely. He is taking off weight rapidly and seems to be in the pink of condition. If the weather continues warm to-day he will ease up work and take a swim at Escalle baths. —_———— ROBBERS ENTER HOUSE OF DR. F. S. ROWLEY BERKELEY, July 12.—The resi- dence of Dr. F. S.
