W BACKED AT SCANT ODDS THEO.CASE RUNS FOURTH Bantam Ridden by Rice Beats Dargin Out by a Nose. OceanShoreandGold- en Sunrise Furnish Surprises. BY FRED E. MULHOLLAND. The wonderful voyage of Theo. Case, favorite for the mile and 100 yard selling fixture, was about the only knotty ques- tion to unravel at Oakland yesterday. The sturdy little three-year-old left the pad- dock with the colors of Del Fountain up for the first time and W. Smith to do the booting. Mud he had previously dem- onstrated to be his forte, and the Idaho plunger is said to have bet money enough on his chances at a bedrock quotation to endow a home for indigent followers of the dope. Smith's riding seemed utterly devold of the repl tabasco flavor and the | favorite never had an opportunity to hobnob with the first three, where the | coin is hung up. Phalanx, which can't run much faster in heavy going than a bow-legged man in the snow. cut out the early pace. Then Schade took a hand with Buchanan, and the Schreiber gelding beat Dixie Lad and Lone Wolf, with something left in the pan., Then followed Theo. Case, later than a country hotel bellhop. ‘With all the drawback of racing over a muddy and uncertain track, three favor- ites were first. Ocean Shore and Golden Sunrise were the surprises. Teddy Robinson rode Peerless Lass, fa- vorite for the two-year-old scramble, and his handling of the filly was far from be- ing of the gilt-edged sort. His mount fin- ished second to Ocean Shore, a' 15 to 1 shot, piloted by C. Willlams, which led almost from the start and won by two lengths. Barrett brought Kogo from the far rear, securing the show. Barney Schrefber's mare Sylvia Talbot, a 13 to 20 favorite, acted sour at the post with Shade and when Dick Dwyer sprung the barrier was left. “Big Bill" Knapp then made a runaway race of it with Golden Sunrise, a 10 to 1 outsider from the Jones & Lusk stable. Dotterel, a fancy priced one, ran second, a length be- fore Bear Hunter. Schade's next plece of misfortune was to be nosed out on Dargin by Rice astride Bantam for the third, a seven furlong selling affalr. Dargin was crowded out of his position at the start and ridden the overiand route. In the stretch the Schrelber sprinter assumed the lead and appeared to be winning. Schade ' grew tired, though, and by careful nursing Rice nipped the verdict in the last stride for’ the favorite. Frank Otis landed Mimo third. AR . A ragged essortmént’ of Gverripe’ three- year-olds started fn thé milé selliig run. Fred Bent was plunged on and Tommy Clark got him home a head in advance of Sizz, a 13 to-1 chance. Jake MooSe led out Pentagon for ‘the small end of the purse After several expensive attempts Judge made good in the final sprint on the card. Heavily backed at 8 to 5, R. Davls shot him out in front at the start and Blumen- thal was the only other starter within a stone’s throw at the finish. Beknighted @ropped in a belated third. NOTES OF THE TRACK. Jockey John Bullman was about the track yesterday. He is now going to try.his hand as a trainer. Willle Schade did not play in the best of luck vesterday. Dargin is not the easlest horse on the track to ride and Barney Schrelber's apprentice is not enjoying the best health. In losing the decision by a nose he dld nothing more than many other first-class riders have done. Golden Sunrise only recently had his name removed from the schooling list. A few mornings at the gate contributes wonderfully to the speed of some horses. Del Fountain recently offered Johnny Millin $2500 for Saxonia. Teddy Robinson fatled to increase his betting average by the two rides he furnished op Peerless Lass and Penta- on. o Now that R. Davis has escaped from the malden class he has already been picked as the “bush phenom” this com- ing summer. The colors of President Williams will be seen this afternoon for the first time in many seasons in actual racing com- petitions. They will be carried In the two-year-old event by Huerfano, a son of Eddie Jones and True Love. Besides the crack Horace E, the pick of the Schreiber string now racing at Ascot Park will be brought up to Oak- land this week. g Theo. Case made such a gaunt, hun- gry looking showing in the fourth race that the judges are investigating the matter. A report emanated from some quarter that the three-year-old pulled up in bad condition. George G. Perkins, former owner of Latonia track, was a visitor at the track yesterday. Bantam scored his fourth consecu- tive set of brackets, and was bld up from $500 to $1000 by D. Sullivan, The stable retained the gelding. —_———————— Something Doing in the Country. This has been an eventful week in the history of Leakesville. On Sunday the bright air scemed to breathe the glad chant of a thousand unseen, coquettish- ly prancing and singing malds and nymphs proclaiming Nuptial Bans, These heavenly symphonies had hardly ceased before another was dawning to the tun of a happy refrain caught up by the same invisible choristers, rejoicingly announc- ing the advent of not “The New King," but a little stranger. The echoes of this | died away Monday night-just as the now offer to the affiicted, with my tentacles about it in a manner sugges- M L tive of what a large individual might do. ! "Losses, Stricture, Spermatorrhoea, Indeed, Dr. A. 8.

But still more, kind reader. Late Wednesday evening the scene of havoc and disaster shifted to Big Creek. Here Fortune played her last Caprice, closing the chapter of the Black Letter Week, when the Water Imps sang their plaintive harmonies over the little body consigned to their realms.

Finally she sald: ‘Well, you're an old Kkill-joy, Bob. Brace up. Throw care to the winds." “Then her eye caught a name on the programme and she started. She called a messenger, whispered to him, handed him $ and settled back wjth a smile. I nearly had a fit a few minutes later whe the messenger returned and handed her a roll of brown and green worth just 3$405. Killkare won the first race at the fat price of 80 to 1. { “‘How on earth?” said L *‘Just a hunch,’ she said. The word kill-joy made me remember there was a horse named Killkare in the first race.

SAN DIEGO, March 5.—The title of champlons of the Pacific Polo Field went :‘:ofltew:lurungme club this afternoon, Ng with the John D, Spreckels chal- lenge trophy, for which the best teams of the State have been contending for the past week. The finals rested between the Burlingame team, made up of Dick and Joe Tobin, John Lawson and Walter S. Hobart, and the Santa Barbara team, made up of E. and J. Bertram, Edgar Boeseke and R. Cameron Rogers, but the contest was not as even as had been ex- pected, for though the Burlingame team was expected to win from the southern representatives, the contest was not ex- e'e::ed 1o be so entirely one-sided as it The showing .made by the Santa Bar- bara team was quite disappolnting, for Rogers seemed to be the only one of the Quartet who played up to form. There Wwas very little team work and fully as many drives were missed as were made. The Santa Barbara team had won two contests already during the tournament, winning first from Los Angeles and then from Santa Monica, both games by a score of 7 to 2. Both of the contests were severe and not only the ponles but the players felt the strain. To that may be ascribed the poorer showing in this afternoon’s game. The Burlingame team and ponies, on the other hand, were in fine condition, having been in but one contest since com- ing here. Their team work was better and neither ponies nor players were on the injured list. In the game this after- noon there was quick scoring on the part of the northern players and luck as well as strength seemed against the Santa Barbara talent. The first goal was made by Burlingame in two minutes and eleven seconds from the start of the game and three more were made before the first perifod ended. Two of the goals were credited to Hobart and the other two to Joe Tobin. In the second and third periods Lawson did all of the scoring, making one goal in the second and two in the third. In the fourth Hobart scored -one more for Bur- lingame. Before the game ended R. M. Tobin added one and Joe Tobin added the eleventh to the score. Only a very few times in the afterncon was the Burlin- game goal seriously menaced and when- ever it was a deplorable miss would give the ball back to the northern players. This evening the five teams of polo players and their friends are being ban- queted by the Corerado Country Club at Hotel del Coronado across the bay. To- morrow afternoon the meeting will close with the second afternoon of polo pony racing with six events scheduled, the most important being the challenge race for the A. B. Spreckels Challenge cup, with Rudolph Spreckels’ Honoma, C. W. Clark’'s Bthel G, E. J.

The following are a few gems recently published: “If we had no horses we should have to go back to the old ancient times.” “Draft horses cost £3, but horses’ dress is very expensive.” “The cry of the horse is like a shivery sound.” “We often see a cow going along our street, and this is because when a cow gets old the farmer thinks it would bet- ter be killed.” o “The cow's tail is for knocking files off Its back.” “When a goat gets big it is called a deer.” “The pig is called the poor man’s friend. It is not a very pretty animal or a good tempered animal, but many of us are neither pretty nor good tempered.”—New York Tribune. ————————— Luxury in Temements. To any one who looks out of the windows of the elevated cars he rides in from time to time it is plain that the luxurious spirit of the age is Invading even the tenements that line the routes of the “L” roads. Time was when the women of the tenements leaning out of their windows were content to rest their arms on the bare sills. But the love of ease of the period hes changed all that. Nowadays they must have something soft between their elbows and the stone sill, and this usually takes the form of a pillow from the nearest bed. Pillows are good enough for the moth- ers, it seems, but the daughters of these houses must have something more “artistic.” They rest their fore- arms on “high art” cushions covered with silkoline or some other cheap tabric.—New York Times. —_— EDITED B R.

SMYTH POLCE AFTER FGHT TRUST rtisanta Barbara Cracks Go|Anxious to Find Out if Doe- tors Examine Boxers Ere They Step Into the Ring NGLE EXPECTED i BAD TA Frankie Neil Says He Does | Not know Who Looked at Him on Disastrous Night Captain of Detectives Burnett is very anxious to find out who signed the medical certificates of Harry Tenny and Fraakie Neil when they entered the ring last Wednesday night. The mys- terious Dr. Day, the man whose signa- ture appears on the bottom of each cer- tificate, Is still missing and, according te the best authorities, is a myth. R. Porter Ashe, attorney for the fight trust, admitted yesterday afternoon that no doctor had ever examined Neil He says that Frankie entered the ring in the best of shape, but the trust never went to the bother of having an ae- eredited medical man examine the pu~ silist. The medical certificate received by Chief of Police Dinan bore the signature of R. M. Day, M. D. This man cannot be found in the city directory., nor does he live across the bay. The members of the fight trust claim to know him very well, but insist he has gone out of town. Whither they refuse to.state. District Attorney Langdon says he will prosecute the members of the fight trust if he can secure any evidence to show that Neil and Tenny were allowed to en- ter the ring without being examined. It is believed by many who are in a position to know that no fighter has been scrutin- 1zed by a doctor before entering a local ring for many months past. ——— Russell Defeats Mems INDIANAPOLIS, March 5. —“Unk” Russell of Philadelphia was awarded the decision over George Memsic of Chicago at the Auditorium tonight after ten rounds of the most vicious milling ever seen in this city. When Referee Ryan announced his decision, Sig Hart, manager for Memsic, climbed into the ring and declared the decision to be unjust. The spectators seemed to have a different opinion and clearly showed their approval of the referee's award. Russell repeatedly sent Mem- sic to his knees. During the fight each principal protested that he had been fouled and in the eighth round Russell started to leave the ring, but was per- suaded to continue the flight. —_—— BOXING AT RELIANCE CLUB.
