FERRIS AS DELEGATE.—The SANFARA COMES INAT 1570 Usual Daily Surprise Fur- nished at Ascot Park Ere the Day Has Well Begun OTHER LONGSHOTS LAND Supervisors Refuse to Vote to Close Track, So Game Will Continue as of Old LOS ANGELES, Jan. 8.—Sanfara, at 1§ to 1, the winner of the first race at Ascot, furnished the daily surprise to the talent. Favorites had a bad day of it as a rule, although sevéral of the winners were well played. Search Me, at 6% to 1, took the second, and Gilpin, at 4 to 1, the third, owing to a stirring finish by Miller. In- cantation had an easy victory over Fus- tian and Fireball, the latter a red-hot favorite. Arrah Gowan, at 7 to 1, and Sandalwood, at 3 to 1, finished one, two in the fifth, ‘while the sixth fell to Golden Buck, at 4 to 1. The persistent and determined effort on the part of certain local organizations to close Ascot Park ended to-day, when the Los Angeles County Supervisors, by a vote of three to two, went on record against & motion to fnstruct the District Attorney to draw a county ordinance against gambling. ‘Weather clear, track fast.

SANTA ROSA, Jan. 8.—At the ad- journed meeting of the Sebastopol Town Trustees held to-night, the .ser- vices of City Engineer N. S. Frost were dispensed with. The action follows that of Saturday night when City At- torney F. L. Lippitt was relieved of his post, and is the result of complica- tions following the installation of a new sewer system, together with dis- satisfaction over the bond issue. To- day the Trustees, acting as a committee of the whole, dug up portions of the main sewer and found, it Is said, that it was not laid according to contract. The bill of Contractor Mattingly has been held up® in consequence of the discovery. There is much feeling in Sebastopol over the matter. PARDEE LIBERATES NAPA LIFE-TERMER Gives Freedom to Murderer| | Who Has Spent Many Years in Jail. SACRAMENTO, Jan. 8. — Governor Pardee, at the solicitation of a number of people in Napa County, who are thoroughly conversant with the facts in the case, has commuted the sentence of John Murbach, serving a life sentence for murder. Originally Murbach was sentenced to be hanged, but owing to the fact. that the killlng was done in a hand to hand fight, Governor Stoneman commuted his sentence to life. W. E. Price of New York has agreed to take Murbach to that State, and the commu- tation is conditional that he will leave the State within ten days and never again enter it.

Both are fight- | ers who have annexed their spurs by their ability to give and take a wallop, and if they live up to their reputations in the coming battle a spirited mixup is sure to | result. Fitzgerald has been working out with Joe Gans at Alameda for the last three weeks and loaks right for some heavy milling. Each day he does six or eight fast rounds with the ebony colored Balti- more boy. He has no weight to make this time, so he devotes all his time and energy to developing a punch and harden- ing himself for a gruelling mill. Lewis is doing his work at Millett's. With him are Joe Thomas and Harry Foley, and they are rounding him into excellent shape. Lewis’ long suit is a smashing wallop to the ribs, which he fig- ures in ripping into Fitzgerald and ending the fight before he goes many rounds. | Lewis has made a great reputation In the East during the last few months, and is a different man from the Lewis who lost to Rufe Turner in Oakland several years ago. The men are to weigh in at 138 pounds at 8 o'clock on the afternoon of the bat- tle. Eddie Graney will be the third man in the ring. Johnny Reid, who is looking after Fitzgerald's interests, says if his man does not win this fight he will leave California for keeps, but if the Brooklyn boy comes home with ‘the money he will start after Britt and the best of them. Joe Gans has given out the statement that during the last week of his training he will not put on a glove. The colored lightweight commenced his work over at Croll's Gardens on Christmas day, and he has been at it continually ever since, and some two or three weeks prior to going into the training camp he boxed each day with Jim Haywards and feels that by the time he has worked up to and including next Sunday it will be about time for him to start thinning out the work. He be- lieves he would be taking too many liber- ties with his hands, and wishes to avoid any injuries that may preclude him from winning his contest with Mike Sullivaa one week from next Friday night. The training will be ‘eut down considerably from time to time with the beginning of next week, and by the time fight duy rolls around Gans will have reached a state of perfect condition. ‘When Willie Fitzgerald ldaves the Ala- meda training camp his place will be taken by Mike Schreck, and the latter will put on the gloves each day with Joe until it is time for the colored lad to cut out his boxing stunt. Sullivan will not altogether cut his box- ing bouts off his training programme the last few days, but instead will mix it with his brother Jack every other day in place of each afternoon, as he has been doing the past two weens. ————— NORTHERN CALIFORNIA GOLF ASSOCIATION ACTIVE AGAIN | | Championship Tournament Will Prob- ly Be Held Under Its Auspices on the Ingleside Links. The return of J. W. Byrne, president of dhe Pacific Union Club, from an ex- tended European trip has caused the Northern California Golf Association, which has been dormant for the past elghteen months, to awaken. At a meeting held yesterday in this city Byrne was re-elected president, Perry Eyre of the Menlo Golf and Country Club and R. Gilman Brown of the San Francisco Golf and Country Club were chosen vice presidents and Arthur Goodall of the Claremont Country Club secretary and treasurer. It is not unlikely that the Northern California Golf Association will hold a championship tournament on the Ingleside . course in February. The competition will be at match play and will be so arranged that players who cannot be on the links on any days ex- cept Saturdays, Sundays and holidays may be able to take part. It is prob- able that circulars announcing the tournament. will be ready at the end of the present week. At the annual meeting of the mem- bers of the San Francisco Golf and Country Club, held in the Ingleside clubhouse on Saturday, the following were elected to serve on the council during the coming year: Captain J. 8. R. 1. Bentley, R. J. Woods, Leonard Chenery and R. Gilman Brown. At the first meeting of ' the council Oyster will be chosen president, R. I. Bentley vice president and R. J. Woods secretary and treasurer. At this meet- ing the house, tournament and green committees will be appointed. The new members of the board are R. I Bentley, Leonard Chenery and R.

Special Dispatch to The Call. BAKERSFIELD, Jan. 8.—This city was | astir early to-day with the admirers of sporting dogs, who are here for the an-| nual field trials. A long string of sur-| reys and buggies left town laden with | the owners. For some inexplicable rea- son there was a lack of point work, the | quality which makes the sporting picture | complete at fleld trials. It might have| | been the weather, although from appear- | ances this seemed ideal. Some of the dogs were in where birds were plentiful | and scored no points. Other dogs had no birds, so their pointing qualities were not brought out. When the day's run-| ning was concluded at 5 o'clock this af- ternoon the members of the party were | near the Canfield schoolhouse on section 25, which is twelve miles from town. The last part of the drive home was done by moonlight. Of the twelve brace in the Derby eight were run off, leaving four | grace to be decided to-morrow. It is not known how many dogs Judge | Baughn will take into the second serfes. | It is expected the stake will be com- pleted to-morrow. S. Christenson’s black, white and tin English setter, Goliath, did some excellent work. He proved high headed and stylish and hunted his ground well. John Considine’s English setter, Mishap, is what the fanciers call a merry goer and has considerable style. | Oakwood and Senator's Dollie made wide casts. They showed plenty of speed, but | ran over their birds. Uncle Dudley and| Raffles, the last brace down, showed good speed and range and covered ground well. They showed a good. disposition to hunt. Judge W. J. Baughn had as asso- ciates in passing on the merits of the dogs J. H. Schumacher and H. L. Bet- ten. DOGS DISPLAY MUCH SPEED. The first brace cast off was J. W. Con- sidine’s blue Belton English setter Misfit (Count Rowdy-Roxane), handled by J. B. Lucas, and W. B. Coutts’ liver and white pointer Tod Sloan (Bolins’ Duke-Whisper), handled by owner. The dogs were down for thirty-five minutes without getting any point work. The dogs covered a lot of territory. W. W. Arsdale’s pointer Sonoma (Dr. | handled by Willie 0 Danlels-Babe Jingo), handled by C. E. Babcock, and J. E. Terry's Merry Duchess (Fairy Lord-Dude Merry Heart). handled by Fred Coutts, started in the same section. As with the former pair. no birds were found. The dogs covered a lot of territory and showed plenty of speed. W. W. Van Arsdale’s white and orang® English setter Madera (Uncle B-Coutts’ Gift), handled by C. H. Babcock, and S. Chbistenson’s black, white and tan Eng- lish _setter Goliath (Kilgarif-Maggie). handled by W. B. Coutts, were put down in section 17. Madera showed a shade the best speed, but his brace mate hunted over his ground to better advantage. Birds were found, Goliath scoring the only point made. This was the first point of the day and pleased the spectators greatly. W. J. Morris’ liver and white pointer Navajo (Teddy Kent-Jack's Fashion), handled by S. N. Carlisle, and J. W. Con- sidine’s blue Belton English setter Mis- | kap (Count’s Rowdy-Roxane), handled by . E. Lucas, were the next brace released. Mishap proved a merry lit- tle hunter, showing much greater speed and range than her opponent. Many birds were flushed, but only oné point was scored, the honor going to Mishap. Stockdale Kennels’ liver and white pointer Hickory Wood (Cuba of Kenwood- Petronella), handled by R. M. Dodge, and Hugh Hopkins' liver and white English setter Aunt Marie (Uncle B-Spot’s Bell), handled by Fred Coutts, were the first brace down after luncheon. The dogs were cast off in a field where many birds had settied. After a merry run Aunt Marfe worked through a big bunch quail, but failed to point. Hickory Wood was also on birds. but for some reason failed to locate them. After having every opportunity neither scored a point FAIL TO LOCATE THE BIRDS. John Erikson's liver and white pointer Senator’s Jack (Senator P-Miss Rap), Coutts, and J. W Flynn's orange and white pointer Sen- ator's Den (Senator P-Flynn's Doilie Jingo), handled by W. B. Coutts, were put down in a fleld with good cover, in which it was known there were birds. The dogs made two long casts and were then brought to where the birds had located. The spectators expected some spectacular pointing, but were disap- pointed. Many birds were flushed but neither dog pointed. J. W. Flynn's lemon and white pointer Senator’s Doilie (Senator P-Dollie Jingo), handled by W. B. Coutts, and Stockdale Kennels' liver, white and tan pointer Oak- wood (Cuba of Kenwood-Petronella), handled by R. M. Dodge, were put down in the same fleld as the previous brace. Like most of the dogs which ran during the day this brace failed to locate the birds before flushing them. F. H. Jermyn's lemon and white peinter Raffles (Senator P-Miss Rap), handled by ‘W. B. Coutts, and J. E. Lucas’ black and white English setter Uncle Dudley (Count ‘Whitestone-Count’s May Belle), handled by his owner, J. E. Lucas, were the last brace put down.
