Dividend stakes for 2:20 trotters and | the Magnolia stakes for 2:14 trotters were decided at the Memphis Driving Park to-day, Bonnie Russell, driven by Scott Hud: winning the former and Lisonjero the latter in straight heats. Both horses were favorites. Prince Alert, with Curry in the sul- ky, attempted to lower his own pac- ing record of 1:59%. Accompanied by 2 running mate the horse nego- tiated the mile in 2:01 flat.

Y., Oct. 19.—Richard T. Wilson Jr.,, accompanied by MNL’ Wiison, sat on the clubhouse veranda ! to-day and saw his gelding Dolly Span- { ker, ridden with more than his usual alertness by Redfern, dart through a narrow opening on the last turn and, make victory certain in the Southamp- tcn Handicap. It was one of the best of Dolly Span- ker's recent conquests. In both his last two winning races they have been run to suit him. The pace had been mparatively slow for the first ‘mile and Dolly Spanker had something left to finish with. It was declared, how- ever, that he would have had a much closer call of the other horses, Or- thodox particularly, had been ridden sufficiently close to the rail to force Redfern’s mount to run around them.!/ Hamburg Belle was installed favorite because in her last race at Morris Park she had defeated with great ease Min- ever, was run in comparatively time, 1:41 1-5; still she won easily with Lyne used vigorously on the filly, but she had all she could do to save third place by a few inches from Sonoma Belle, which is far from first cléss. The time for the mile and a sixteenth wgs 1:46 4- The Southampton Handicap was worth $1475 to the winner. Sum- FIRST RACE—Six furlongs; handicap; all age: Horse, Weight, Jockey. St. % Fin.

BERKELEY, Oct. 19.—By the narrow margin of one point Oakland High School players defeated their old time rivals, Berkeley High School, in a hard fought football game to-day on the uni- versity gridiron. The game, which was a vart of the Academic League sched- ule, ended with the score 6 to 5 in favor of Oakland. Oakland’s only touchdown was made through a fumble by Berkeley during the first five minutes of play. The ball slipped away from the Berkeley half back pn Oakland's fifty-yard line. Mal- colm, one of Oakland’'s ends, caught it pn the bound and ran sixty yards for a touchdown. Bramhall kicked a dif- ficult goal, making the score 6 to 0 in favor of Oakland- Berkeley's only score came in the second half aft twenty-five minutes of play. \The Berkeley boys carried the ball down the field with a series of straight bucks through the line. Stone was sent through for a touchdown. Miller fail- ed at the try for goal and the score was Oakland 6, Berkeley 5. Darkness came on before the game ended and for the last fifteen minutes the players were unable to see who had the ball. The teams were made up of: Berkeley—Dcane, Bowman, Solinsky, Steele, Witcher, Johmson, Monett, Miller, Stone, Farrell, Peck.

Ankle .. inches Contrary to expectations the tape mcasure shows Jimmy Britt and Joe Gans to_be almost identical in build. The most marked discrepancy is in the reach or spread of the arms, where Britt has an advantage of three and one-fourth inches over his clever op- ponent. Gans has the greater chest measure- ment and is also larger about the waists. Both these will be reduced slightly by training before he enters the ring on the night of the fight. Below the waist the boxers are al- most identical in their movements. Gans ‘has a half-inch larger thigh, while their calf measurements are the same. The representatives of the boxers will meet to-morrow night at Harry Corbett's to select a referee. Her- ford favors some Eastern man, but Britt will not entertain such a propo- sition. Joe Gans spent a qufet day at his training camp at Billy Shannon's villa yesterday. It was expected he would settle down to a strenuous life from now until the eve of the contest, but for some reason his trainers have concluded to let him take things easily until about next Monday. This will leave him only seven days in which to make the weight, but the problem does not seem to worry his trainers or his manager. Joe took a ten-mile spin in the morn- ing and after a rub-down it was an- nounced he weighed 137 pounds. He claims to be in tip-top condition, and says the question of making 133 pounds, ringside, seems to bother everybody but himself and his train- ers, who are the parties most inter- ested. Jimmy Britt did his first boxing at his training quarters at Croll's Gar- dens, Alameda, yesterday, going four slam-bang rounds with husky Frank Rafael. He displayed all of the clever- ness for which he is noted. Those who witnessed the bout agreed that Jim- my’s speed is increasing and likewise the accuracy of his blows. When the last round was concluded Britt showed no - evidence of weariness, thus indi- cating’ that he is already in good trim with regard to his breathing ap- paratus. In the morning Britt took to the highway alone and traveled eight miles at a lively gait. Upon returning to his gymnasium he divested himself of his road togs and was soon attired in a bathing suit and plowing through the bay waves near Croll's Gardens. Jimmy has developed a liking for swimming and those who have wit- nessed him cleave the briny with right and left hooks feel he could give Tom Sharkey a start and beating in a hun- dred-yard aquatic race. In addition to sparring four rounds yesterday Britt punched the bag for twenty minutes, tossed the medicine ball and twisted the wrist machine. His exercising was watched by a num- ber of friends and admirers, including Billy Delaney, Jim Kennedy and most of the staff of the Central Theater, where Jimmy used to knock out vil- lians when he was on the beards. —_——— Golfing Honors for Harvard.

CHARLIE HALL HAS THE LUCK AND WINS 0UT SEATTLE, Oct. 19.—Charlle Hall of Ventura is certainly a lucky pitcher. Los Angeles had him to the bad early in the game to-day, but in the sixth inning his team mates commenced to hit, Charlie commenced to pitch and Seattle finally won out. Jud Smith’s work at third and Van Haltren's in center fleld were the features of the game. Jud scooped in a liner with a one-handed catch that was little less than phenomenal. Van Haltren caught two seemingly impossible flies. Tim Flood will be back in the game in a day or so. He has been having trouble with his arm, which was put out of commission by a swittly pitched ball. Score: _ Beattle— \ AB. V Hitn.ef 5 Mohlr, zb 5 C.Smth,rt ; 3 Los Angeles— AB.R.

RN L BROWNIES ERR TOO OFTEN. ‘When Seals Get a Start the Game Is Easy. PORTLAND, Oct. 19.—The Wheeler and Wilson battery sewed the Dugs in a sack by the score of 7 to 3 to-day. For two innings Starkells and Kel- lackey plowed through the Seals with ease, but in the third Wilson pelted out a single and Wheeler also gained a perch. . Then Meany drove one toward Spencer, who booted it across the lot, so that Wheeler and Wilson scored. The fireworks occurred in the seventh. With: Wheeler's single, a couple of boots by Starkells, a wild pitch and a base on balls, the Seals made three runs.

Seattle The King of Tacoma town descend ed upon Recreation Park yesterday and gave it cut that he would make four straight from the Commut ers. But the Jungle Monsters not even go four straight rounds wit! a lead. The Commuters played base ball that is unheard of in the bush league and Mike got second coin. Score —Oakland 3, Tacoma 2. Never in months has such a variety of ginger been expended by the talent as was yesterday. The fans also chimed in at odd moments and alt gether it looked like a game for t championship of the world. There wer no dull moments in the battle and every run that came in was the result of some labor. Dr. Moskiman pitched an elegant game. It was through his steady work that the Tigers were kept away from that rubber on many occasion Thomas also had the Indian sign with him for most of the game, but one those fatal bases on balls was pensed by him in the seventh round and that broke up the game right there. The flelding was fast, four swell double plays being made during first four rounds of the contest. Oak- land’s infield played some magnificent | baseball. Francks and Schlafley worked together in grand form and got every- thing that happened to be clouted in | their direction. Both teams bréke in with a run in the first round. Sheehan walked for the Tigers and skimmed around to third on Nordyke's single past first Lynch’s out put him in. Francks tore off a safe one for Oakland and got around to third on a wild pitch. Duu- leavy’s infield out let Buck register the first one for the Commuters. Again in the fourth they were both there with one. Truck Eagan lifted out a two-cushioner to the center field fence and got away with a daring piece of base running when he scampered to third while Francks threw to Streib retiring Lynch. Streib winged the bal over to Devereaux, but Bill dropped it. A moment later Eagan tore in on Casey’s scratchy one to Schlafley, which he just barely beat out. Schlafley carried in the other Oak- land tally in round four. He managed to beat a bunt, stole second and tore straight ahead when Kruger soused a fast one out to short center fleld. The ball was not flelded as fast as it might have been, otherwise Shoo would have been a dead one at the pan. His dar- ing run buffaloed the Tigers and they could not recover in time. There was no more scoring till the Commuters put the deciding one to the good in the seventh. Streid’s base on balls opened up the inning. Bill Dev- ereaux Jaid down a bunt, advancing Julie. Jimmy Byrnes slapped a saucy one to center and went to second on the throw in. Moskiman Jaid down a slow one to Thomas. While he was being fielded out Streib ducked in with the winning one. After the fourth round Moskiman had the Tigers looking foggy. None of them could get a hit and his control was pretty good.
