FINE DAY'S RACING.
Auspicious Opening ofthe Turf Club's
Spring Meeting.
Throe Good Events, in Ono of Which
the Favorite Got Left—To-Day's
Trotting Races.
The spring meeting of the Capital Turf
Club opened auspiciously yesterday, and
the officers ofthe club were quite elated
over tho fact.
"This is the best first day's attendance
we've ever had at a spring meeting,"
said President Wilson to a RBOOBD-
I'.MfiN reporter, "and I look for*pros
perous week's business for the club. The
events are all good ones, and if the
weather holds out like this I can imagine
no reason why everybody shouldn't be
satistied."
"Yes, sir," remarked Secretary Todd,
"we are very well pleased with the out
look. There are more people here to-day
than I ever saw at the commencement of
a spring racing meeting, and the crowd
will increase every day. The club will
try and make it interesting for them, too.
We havo given fair purses, and there arc
good classes of horses entered for each
day's programme. We are in ir, and you
may tell those fellows that tried to injure
us not to forget it."
The weather was delightful yesterday,
the patronage good, the management ex
cellent, and everything passed off
smoothly. There was no opportunityffor
complaints about tho judging, nor in fact
anything else. Only those who placed
their money on the wrong horse bad any
fault to find, and even they had uo one to
"kick" at but themselves.
The intervals between the heats were
enlivened by choice selections given by
tho Hussar Band, and there were no un
necessary or tedious delays.
In lieu of the first race announced, for
two-year-olds—which did not fill—tiie
club gave a special race, in which four
colts started. All the races were weli
eontested and exciting, and the pool
sellers were kept busy. The grand stand
contained quite a number of ladies, and,
taken all together, the club Directors had
good reason to feel elated over the day's
business.
The Judges for the day woro J. W.
Wilson. Robert Allen ami W. P. ilarkey.
Timers, Wilbur F. Smith, S. Tryon and
George Howson. Starter, Ab Sunnier.

Tlie tirst event was a handicap for all
ages for the Golden Eagle Hotel stake,
one and one-quarter miles. The added
money was $250, with $50 each for start
ers, and *5!5 forfeit, which made a very
handsome stake. The horses that came to
the dm st were J. W. Harper's colt, Hotspur
—which broke the mile and three-quar
ters record last week at the Blood-Horse
races—Matt Storn's Larghetta and Phil
Seibenthaler's Sheridan. The first named
carried I_l pounds, the second lOOpounds
and the latter 101 pounds.
Hotspur sold in the pools forslß against
£".."1 for the other two, and considerable
money went into the box on these terms.
The horses got away at the first at
tempt, Sheridan having a little the I
it, and as they passed the stand there was
t a neck's difference between each,
Hotspur holding the second place. They
went around the turn and past ihe quar
ter-pole without much change in their
positions. By the time tlie half-mile pole
was reached, however, Hotspur and
Sheridan luid got mi about even terms,
Larghetta lapping, but they came into

There was Another good attendance of
invited burhis. including many ladies, at
the Sacramento Athletic Club's handball
tournament last evening, and there were
several good games.
The first contest was between Blair and
Scheld one side and <'. Yoerk and Mc-
Clatchy on the other. Rlair aud Scheld
played in hard luck during tho contest,
not being able to touch Yoerk's serving.
The result was that Yoerk and McClatchy
whitewashed their opponents, the score
ai the finish being2l too.
The Etanie teams were then pitted for
another game, and this turned out to be
the most exciting game of the evening.
Blair and Scheld went to work in earnest
this time, and it was nip and tuck all
through. Brilliant plays were frequent
on both sides, and the audience applauded
enthusiastically. Tlie finish was magnif
icent, and Blair and Scheld Avon by a
score of 21 to 18.
These teams then retired, and Gorman
and Kay. and Mansfield and F. Y'oerk
were pitted for two games. These games
were dull and uninteresting, Mansfield
and Yoerk falling easy prey to their
"speedy" opponents. In the'first game
the score was 21 to 1, and in the second 21
to 4.
G. Yoerk and McClatchy then defeated
Mansfield and Yoerk by a score of 21 to 2.
The final game was between Blair and
Scheld and Gorman and Kay. and was
quite lively for a time. Gorman and Kay

TAYLOR VS. FAYLOR.
A Couple ol' lunso-Ti'iiiu'rs Ilavv? an
Exciting Fight.
There came near being a tragedy at
Shear's saloon, mar Agricultural Park,
shortly before 2 o'clock yesterday after
noon. It so, ins that s >me stablemen were
in the saloon at the time, among them be
ing Johnny Faylor and a couple of colored
men—John Taylor and Otto Coles.
Taylor and Faylor had words about
something, and the former assaulted tiie
latter, who is a small 111:111 and no match
for his assailant. Be received a terrific
blow in the face, and considerable excite
ment was caused.
Shear began to think that the colored
population was going to demolish his I
place and. everybody in it. so he ran be
hind the bar and grabbed hie pistoL Fay
lor saw him with it and yanked it out of'
his hand.
At the same moment Taylor made a |
break for the street, with Faylor after
him. Coles caught hold of Faylor and,
■ trieri to take the pistol away from him, '•
\ and in the struggle the weapon was dis- j
charged, the bullet going into the floor.
Officer Ferrall heard the shot and hast- ■
ened to the saloon aud arrested Faylor.
Coles was pointed out to him as the "man
who assaulted Faylor, and he arrested
him also and took them both to the city
jail.
<>n the way down town it was learned r
that Coles was not the man who struck
Faylor, but he was detained as a witness j
to the row. Faylor put up a deposit for '
his appearance to answer to a charge of i
disturbing the peace —the only one, tlie j
officer says, that could be entered, as it
did not appear that he had done more
than engage in a fight.
Taylor has not yet been arrested/

WORD PAINTING.
Luther Benson Employs It in Fighting
Intemperance.
He Delivers Another Eloquent Lecture,
and Deals Hard Blows at
King Alcohol.
Luther Benson lectured for the third
time at tho Sixth-street Methodist Church
last night to a very largo audience. In
speaking of the effects of liquor on the
mind and body, he said: "Men come to
me and saj* that liquor is one of clod's
good creatures, made to be used and not
abused. God never made one drop of
liquor ! You may examine every struct
ure and every fluid of that being whom
alone God has taught to laugh., or weep,
and all tribes of animated existence that
roam the woods, or wing the sky, or roll
along the flood, and you will not lind one
drop of liquor.
"Then, go into the vegetable kingdom
—analyze the elementary grain, tho nutri
tious seed, the esculent roots and the
luscious fruits, and you will not find one
drop of liquor.
"Thengo down into the mineral regions,
explore the depths of old ocean herself,
and I say to you that Nature—through
out all her domain of things animate and
inanimate —never produced one drop of
alcohol!
"Whence comes it, then? Man, Idl on
by tiie solicitations of a deprived instinct,
produces it! Not by any process of life
ami growth, but by a process of death
and decay. It is the child ot" death, and
not of lii'e, and growth, and development;
and it has no more place among man's
b iverages than arsenic has among his
"There is no poison that ever went into
the human body so deadly as alcohol. If
you take arsenic, or any other poison,
a doctor can take a stomach-pump and
pump it out; but liquor goes into the
blood and goes with the blood into the
brain a.nd bakes and cooks and scalds and
hardens the brain, until reason topples,
trembles, crumbles an.l tails from ber
thr »ii".
"It is a crime and a sin that men should
make and drink their own destruction.
We touch very nigh Deity when we stand
on the summit of intellectual region. In
a little hollow globe, bounded by a skull,
with a dome no larger thin a tortoise
shcll, dwells that nameless and immortal
power which we call mind, out from
underneath, this dome have gone in
gloomy or shining processions all
thoughts that men have ever thought.
From this land-locked harbor all ships
whose prows have searched for new lan.ls
ami undiscovered seas have first sailed.
Bere it is that poetry strings her tuneful
lyre* and history, with whitened lock-,
labors at her accumulating scroll: here,
too, it i^ that all curious inventions are
wrought out; here, too, religion finds her
altar, and piety her place to kneel. But
best and grandest of all. there dwells
within these chambers, which the mind
calls home, imagination—she of the dar
ing eye and audacious foot—and gases
with unflinching eyes on the far-oft"
realms where flesh has never entered,
and where men walk, as if by right di
vine, the crystal pavement on the golden
street.
"Oh, what a history rum .has made!
We find almost from the first of Genesis
to the close of Revelations the warnings,
pleadings and threatenings of the Great
Jehovah against the awful sin of drunk
enness. Science, history, anil fearful ex
perience have all shed" their Hoods of
Light spon this subject, and still this de
stroyer marches on in Ids might, slaying
as with the sword of death. And yet. in
the face of and in spite of pleadings and
frightful examples, thousands and tens of
thousands of men are daily going to
drunkard's graves. The grandest spirits
that have ever roamed this earth have
fallen, never to rise, and rivers of tears
have Mowed and seas of agony rolled over
the heritage of humanity."
Mr. Benson will deliver his last lecture
in this city at tlie Sixth-street Methodist
Church on Friday night. His subject
will be "The Temptations of Appetite."
