The hearers were interested in the Bee- thoven Sonata Op. 31, but did not warm up thoroughly until the picturesque Schumann “Faschingschwank aus Wein” had cumulatively piled melo- dies and marvels of execution upon what hiad gone before. From then to the close Pugno had all his auditors for admirers, A cluster of Chopin numbers were done wonderfully well. If Chopin in these particular selections has been done better here the fact is out of memory. The “Spinning Bong” and the “Hunt- ing Song” by Mendelssohn went with great briskness and smoothness, thanks 1o the absolutely complete ambidex- terity of Pugno. The Pugno planis- simo has been surpassed in the “Spin- ning Song.” The other was a mass of trumpet tones. Pugno is a great ex- pounder of the tonal possibilities of the plano. When he was done the auditors shouted “Brava!” at him lustily, e —— LECTURE ON BRITISH COLUMBIA.—Al bert Le Breton delivered an interesting lecture last might at Native Sons’ Hall on “British Columbia, From Victoria to Banfl.” The Jec- ture was Tlustrated with a bevy of magic lan- tern #ides.

Pepper-pod Downs Marie H by a Short Nose. Pentagon, at Long Odds, Wins in Hard Drive. BY FRED E. MULHOLLAND. The Pan Raast Club had Charley Mc- Cafferty on the grill when Ralbert came back and defeated Hector for the con- cluding event at Oakland yesterday, the Royal Flush handicap. Last Tuesday Ralbert, when a 9 to 20 favorite, finished second to David Bo- land after none too even a passage, the | | race bemng run over a sloppy track. The going yesterday was heavy, and agaln piloted by Brussell, the McCafferty geld- | ing, backed from 3% to 22, administered a sound trouncing to Hector, which ran coupled with Wee Lass as the Hall & Marshall ‘entry. As Elevation, a 30 to 1 shot and an ordi- nary performer, finished a good third, a startling reversal is not apparent. La Londe, favorite for the race, could not raise a gallop. Three post choices were returned win- The attendance was up to the average. MARIE H SWERVES BADLY. A band of cheap maidens started in the introductory five-furlong scramble, with Marie H, the mount of Willlams, a 2 to 1 favorite. The mare to all appearances had the race won, when she swerved into the deep going, and Rice on Pepper- pod received a nose decision. Laura Van, the Schreiber entry, ran third. £t. Francis outclassed his field in the six-furlong selling run shoes to plates, and 13 to 20 looked a liberal price. The Rubicon coit was ridden by Tommy Clark and won running away from I'm Joe and Cock Sure. Isolation led for a short distance and then blew up. Nor was there any semblance of a con- { test In the third, a Futurity course sprint with the weights raised ten pounds above the scale. Blumenthal looked by long odds the best and with Knapp in the saddle he breezed in before Mimo and Fuil Sway. Golden Sunrise had a stormy voyage. CLARK LANDS PICKAWAY. A. J. Jackson's Pickaway, played from 12 to 6, made a four-bagger of the mile selling fixture. He had Tommy Clark off his back, and skinning off in front won all the way. In a drive Jackfull beat Modicum for the place. Dusty Miller, the favorite, ran as if the cobwebs had dulled his speed. Briers warmed up like a two-year-old, was plunged on to win the mile and fifty vard selling run, and didn’t show speed enough in the race to ralse a scrape. The’ going, too, was made to order for the old mare, and perhaps that wouldn’'t make a slate roof leak. At any rate Pen- tagon, 2 13 to 1 shot, passed Cardinal Sarto on the far turn and in a driving { finish at the wire beat Chablis half a length. Minder grabbed the show with Wenrick. NOTES OF THE TRACK. Tommy Clark rode two winners, Teddy Robinsen finished second with three of his mounts. Peter Weber, father of Joe, Charley and Johnny Weber, at one time weéll- known saddle artists, is up from Los Angeles. The stable of J. F. Newman & Son, which arrived from Ascot Park Thurs- day night, is comprised of such clever performers as Don Domo, Alma Gardia, Alonza, Josie's Jewel, Moncie Mabel, Rubinon, Ed Tracey, Burning Brush, Lady Mirthful, Miss Anxious and Black Sam. ' Another car from Los Angeles brought War Whoop, Kirkfield Belle, Judge Nelson and Mortlake. owned by the Kirkfield stable. Mill Song, Promise Rose, Harry L Thornton, in the same consignment, will race in the colors of Charles Kerr. —ee———— FILE EARNEST PROTEST AGAINST HIGH FENi CES Ladies of Outdoor League Urge Su- pervisors to Enforce Ordinance Limiting Height of Signs. A delegation of ladles from the Cali- fornia Outdoor League appeared before the Supervisors’ committee on beauti- fication and adornment yesterday and protested against the non-enforcement of the ordinance which prohibits the maintenance of advertising feunces and billboards exceeding ten feet in height. Mrs. L. A. Sorbier spoke for the com- mittee and stated that the high fences were disfiguring the city and were eye- sores to the beholder. Mrs. Sorbier also said that many obscene and immoral plctures were shown on the high fences and urged the committee to take steps to correct the evil. Supervisor Mc- Gushin thought the matter was one for the police to take in hand, but the com- mittee assured the ladies that it would earnestly co-operate in the movement to abolish unsightly signs in excess of the legal height. SAYS HE WILL PROSECUTE AUDITOR HORTON AT ONCE William A. Hiester Declares tortion Has Been Practiced omn Him. ‘William A. Hiester, printer and son of the founder of the old Dally Report, says he will institute criminal pro- ceedings against Auditor Samuel W. Horton, wham he accuses of extortlon. “I will give $1000 to charity,” he said last night, “for proof that I owe Hor- ton anything. I have never cwed a broker a cent. I shall not go before the Grand Jury, however, for it would not give me a square deal.” Mayor Schmitz has received~the af- fidavit made by Miss I. M. Phillips to the effect that Horton demanded the payment of a private debt due by Hies- ter before he would audit a demand for $1147. The Mayor will investigate, but there seems to be no haste. ———— HOAX PERPETRATED.—Otto Schwast, Baker and Jefferson streets, found a_bottle o the Presidin beach on Thursday which con- tained a note written in pencil, evidently by some joker.

Many Gothamites who traveled to the Qualker City to witness the contest are still discussing the bout in_anything but complimentary terms. Both boxers are out with statements to the effect that the bout was too snort to be dec’sive. Both find fault with the ruling which kept the referee from breaking the men out of the clinches. Nelson's manager, Billy No- lan, evolyed this idea and after a good deal of drgument induced McGovern's manager to agree to it. The rule worked to the Dane's disadvantage. Nolan is sorry he suggested the idea, while Humphries Is glad he accepted it. Jdoe Gans, who is regarded by many as the legitimate lightweight cham- pion, is heard from to the effect that he is anxious to meet the Dane in the ring. If Gans is returned the winner in his fight with Sullivan he will immediate- ly post a forfeit to meet Nelson. A $20,000 purse has already been of- fered by the Tuxedo Athletic Club of Philadelphia® for a meeting between Nelson and Gans. This is the match: the people want to see and not a re- turn engagement with McGovern. ———— Exciting Baseball Promised. i The second game of baseball between the closely matched nines representing St. Mary's and Santa Clara colleges will be played today at Recreation Park.

SMYTH ek S | WRICHT PLAYS BRILLIANT CAME California Billiardist As- tonishes the Spectators at Chicago Tournament MAKES HIGHEST RUN When He Seems Hopelessly Beaten He Finishes Vith Mighty Rush CHICAGO, March 16.—Harry Wright of San Francisco defeated Calvin Demarest of Chicago at the Chicago Athletic Asso- clation this afternoon by a score of 300 to 265 in the greatest billiard game be- tween amateurs known to history. ‘Wright, after being apparently hopelessiy beaten, trailing along more than 100 points behind his brilliant young opponent, made 127 in his seventeenth inning. He came right back In unheard of fashion and ran the game out with 72 in his next, the eighteenth inning. He broke the high tournament mark of 112 and came within twelve points of equaling the world's amateur record of 139 established by Wayman McCreary of St. Louis. Wright also equaled Poggenburg's high tournament average of 1§ 12-1S. Dem- arest's high run was 75 and his average 15 10-17, which is remarkable for a loser. The night game was a frost in every particular. Gardner won from Norris by a score of 300 t6 23. The game dragged along for forty-six innings, Gardmer final- Iy running out with an average of § 24-46. At one time in the contest Norris was 100 points ahead, but after that an old woman could have beaten him. Norris’ average was only § 38-45, which gives an idea of the game they were playing. The standing of the players at the conclusion of tonight's play follows: course; three-year-olds and up; purse. E ....

BOSTON, March 16.—A wonderful sur- 105 . o2 gical operation is in progress at the Massachusetts General Hospital, where Stephen Calabro, an Itallan, is being made into a new man. The operation will require two years to complete success- fully, but Calabro is willing and is bear- ing the pain with remarkable stoicism. He is being supplied with a new fore- head, new eyelids, new cheeks, a new nose, lips and finally a new neck with new skin over all, the parts being grafted on after removal from other parts of his body. The operation, if successful, will mark an epoch as a cure of one of the most severe and protracted cases of that strange disease, Kkaleoids. The disease came on Calabro after he was injured in a powder explosion at Waymouth about a year ago. While the cause of kaleoids is unknown, the only cure is to cut away the entire growth and graft new skin. ————————— BRIEF CITY NEWS. JUDGE HAWLEY GOES HOME.—United States District Judge Thomas P.
