MULHOLLAND. Underestimating the sterling qualitiés of Billy Cahill's good four-year-old, Yada, SANR Sec— stalled Toupee favorite for the final seven- furlong purse affair. Yada has shown steady improvement in his recent races, and, excellently ridden by J. J. Walsh, led from start to finish. Under punishment, the favorite succeeded in getting up on the rail in time to take the place from Sir Brillar, a heavily played one from the Henshall stable. y Ideal racing weather and an attractive card saw a large crowd in attendance. The sport was above the ordinary, even === P T ! over. In the search for fresher material Dick Wilson was almost entirely overlooked in the betting on the opening five-furlong sprint, for malden three-year-olds. He had Lloyd Fountain on his back, and at odds of 15 to 1 won’easily from Laura Van and the favorite, Integrity. Atkin displayed unmistakable signs of soreness and performed poorly. Teddy Robinson came in for censure, deserved or not, because of his uncertain ride on Pimkim, favorite for the two-year- old number. He prolonged making any decided move with the Stover -entry until the race was practically over, then finish- ing a close third. Barney Schreiber’s filly Blanche C, a 12 to 1 chance, led from the start almost, finishing less than a length in advance of Elmdale at the wire. Tom Roberts is a pretty useful colt to be parading in cheap selling races, but many of the bookmakers couldn’t see it that way. The Applegate & Cotton three-year-old had. nothing to beat in the third, and still his price touched § to § once. Piloted by Robinson, he won with ridiculous ease from J K F and Merry-Go- Round. Avonalis ran far below expecta- tions. Flashing past the wire three heads apart, Major Tenny, a 16 to 1 shot, re- ceived the award over Bird of Pasgage and Josie's Jewel at the conclusion of the mile selling event for three-year-olds and upward.

He sent a stralght right to the jaw which toppled Lundie over on his head like a broken column. The first big surprise of the night was the defeat of O. L. Kirk of St. Louis by Frank Edwards of the Olympic Club. | Edwards staggered Kirk early in the | fight with hard lefts to the body and| kept up this play till he had weakened | Kirk noticeably. He knocked Kirk down | | in the second round when there were stjll | two minutes to go.. Kirk was desperate | and tried his best to knock his man | out with a right to the jaw. He seemed | absolutely unable to block Edwards’ Jeft jab to the head and this kept him |in continual distress. His face was | painted a deep carmine from the fre- | quent visitations. Kirk improved in the last round, but the points that had been scored against him put him out of the tournament. LEONARD APPEARS. Billy Leonard made his first appearance at the tourney against J. Leahy. Leon- ard aid not seem to be hitting with his usual strength, but he knocked his man | down in the second round with a right to the jaw and the contest was over. Tom Rawson of Boston was outpointed by Harry Baker of the Olympic Club. The bout was so close the majority of the spectators thought the visitor was en- | titled to an extra round. Henry Jones, who was one of the stars on the ovening night. was knocked out; in seconds by Stone, the New Yorker. The decisive blow was a Jeft to the jaw. Lefreiner of Chicago lasted only fifteen | seconds with Lew Powell of the Olympic Club. Powell knocked him out with a left to the jaw which was about the first lead he made. The tourrament will'be brought to a cloge tonight, when twelve bouts will make up the card. The class last night was | much higher than that displayedgon the | opening night, and as the boys who still remain in have received but little punish- ment sensational going is promised to- night in the different.classes. 2 e KIRK’S COLORS ARE LOWERED. Frankie Edwards Proves Too Clever for Crack St. Louls Boy. James Carroll, Olympic Club, and E4 Len- non, Metropole, 105-pound. class, started the tball rclling. Carroli was given the decision at the end of the third round. Carroll out- fought hi= mar from the start and landed several vicious left hooks to the face and jaw that brought the blood in streams. Frank iidwards, Olympic Club, and Oliver L. Kirk, Missour! Athletic Club, amateur cham- plon of the 128-pound class, next contested vards received the decision at the ¢nd of third round. Edwards took ‘command from start and held it tiil the end. In the first round e had the champion groggy and started blood flowing freely fram the nose with aced lefts. Kirk fought back -gamely in this round and landed a few good biows, but they had Jittle effect. 1la ‘the-gucceeding rounds Edwards punished his man. severely, ploying a stralght léft to the jaw mnd face, He kept this e contest and at_the It was 2 splendid bout st, although one slded. Gresham of the Missouri Athletic Club and Willlam Lundle, Olympic_Club, 105-pound clars, were the next to appear. Gresham dfs- posed of his man in the first round after about iwo minutes’ fighting. It was an easy vic- tory for the 8t Louls boy. He sent his op- pument to ihe floor With @°left hook and right swing to the face H. Jones, Olympic Club, and T. A.

He landed at will and the referce stopped the bout to save Dullea from further punishment. WILLIS BEATS GALLAGHER. Johr Rodney and James Ford, both of the Olympie Club, 135-pound class, came on next.

James Ellis, South Side Club, and Charles Avgustus, unattached, 145 pounds, Ellls won in the first rqund by a knockout. Hugh McKinnon, Boston Athletic Club, Matt GranfieM, Olympic Club, 145-pound class, followed. A fourth round was ordered in this contest to determine the winner. ~As the gong sounded in the second round McKinnon whi a viclous right to the face and brought the blood in streans. McKinnon forced the fighting. He nearly sent Granfleld to. the ropes with a right swing to the jaw and kept up the good wark. McKinnon was given the dccflon at the conclusion of the fourth r d. Then came the heavyweights. Andrew Gal- lagher, Olympie Club, and Joseph Will Haw- thorne Club, fought at 168 pounds. Wilils was given the decision at the end .of the fourth Both men were extremely tired at the fnish and it was a question uf the survival of the fittest.

Henry W. Fincke, Olympic Club, and Charles Mayer, New York Athletic Club, were next. | They are in the 158-pound class. Fincke re- ceived the decision at the end of the third round. It was a very even and tame bout. Good blows were few and far between, but as IMincke scored oftener he was given the ver- diet. George Murray, unattached, and William Warren, Hawthorne Club,, 158-pound class, were next in order. Murray was given the de- cision at the end of the fourth round, It was an even contest at the end of the third round, but Murray took a decided lead in the extra round and mot the decision.

Previpus to he knockout he sent his opponent through the ropes among the spectators. Harkins' head struck the floor when he wuy floored the last time and he appeared to be padly hurt. He jay on the floor In a semi-cunacious state and was later removed to the Central Emergency Hospital, where the doctors say he is suffer- ing from a slight attack of concussion of the brain, —_————— Remarkable Flagstaff. Passengers on the Eighty-sixth-street crosstown cars as they near Third ave- nue are certain to comment on the most unique flagstaff in the city. It is re- markable not because of preponderating size, but because it i1s rigged up like the mast of a ship—a strange craft _apparently anchored on a sea of roofs. The flagstaff consists of two poles rising from the roof of a storage ware- house. The lower mast runs up to the regulation crosStrees, where there is a small “crow’s nest,” and the topmas springs from that in shipshape fashion. From the roof of the bullding to the crosstrees is strung a complete set of ratlines, while a spar swings out at right angles in a manner to delight the hea;; of a mariner. it R “The former owner of this building,” volunteered the mnllcer in 'jme:‘:'o an inquiry, “had been a sajlor:: When he became prosperous on land he still cherished the memory of his seafaring youth, and rigged up that mast as a tribute to the old frigate ships, for, he had been a sailor in the navy."—New York Tribune ¥ followed. | Pany Racing, Horse Show, Polo and a Meet of the Hounds Pro- grammed. The day of sports at Francis J. Caro- lan’s Crossways farm, which was post- poned from last Saturday on account of the rain, will be held tomorrow. Those in charge will try to run off a long and varied programme. Pony racing will open the programme, the minlature thoroughbreds going to the post at 12 o'clock for thé first event. They will race till 1:30, when a hunt luncheon will be served the spectators. After luncheon the ponies entered in the polo pony show will be judged and then there will be a meet of the San Mateo County Hunt. The members of the field will take a number of jumps in the presence of the spectators. - The polo players will then appear and will play several periods.

NOTES OF THE TRACK. Lloyd Fountain luckily escaped in- jury when Palemon fell with him in the two-year-old event. Little Preston, the rider for the New- man stable, is rapidly becoming a big favorite with the crowds. * He is cer- tainly a very hustling young gentleman and exercises good judgment. Barney Schreiber last night received a wire from Trainer, Brandt from Mem- phis stating that Dr. Gardner and the rest of the string arrived in the South- ern city in good condition.

Two competitors pre- sented themselves, but when the Grand canal was won the headmost swimmer swam alone. Nor did the poet leave the water when he had won his race. He continued in triumph as far as Santa Chirara, which he reached with ease after swimming for four hours and ten minutes. Probably Byron was the best all-round athlete among the poets of any country and any age. He was a boxer as well as a swimmer, while as a cricketer he was good enough to play OAKLAND TRACK Four selling and two purse events are down on the card for decision at Oakland today.

A correspondent of the London Times raises the point that, while a libel upon a dead man may f the sub- ject of a criminal prosecution, yet there is no redress whatever for a libel by the dead upon the living. Thus a tes- tator may so phrase his will as to Iibel a legatee and injure him to an extent far in excess of his legacy. The write® cites as an fillustration the following bequest from an ardent teetotaler to a moderate drinker: “I glve and bequeath to A. B. the sum of £50 upon condition that she signs the pledge.” Such a condition Inserted in a will, he belleves, might do the lady legatee an amount of damage for which £50 would be but poor compensation, an@ he submits that in cases of posthumous iibel the execu- tors should be answerable to damages to the extent of the testator’s estate.— Law Notes. The 1907 class team from the Lick High School defeated the senlors of the same school yesterday afternoon by & score of 12 to'll. The game was the first that efther side has played since last spring, and many runs were scored by both sides that should have been outs. % ——— Jockey Schilling Dies.
