Twenty thou sand racegoers ran up against a bard game it Gravesend this afternoon. Five favorites, all extensively played, were bowled over, the only successful first choice being John A. Drake's Conun y drum, who got home in the last race with, only a neck to spare. Blues, whose eVratic performances this year hare been the talk of the turf world, afforded a complete sur prise when he romped home a winner eight lengths, before Sombrero in the Second Special at a mile and a half. This waB the most Important event on the card, and with Hermls, "Wyeth, Runnells, Francesco, and Par Excel lence scratched, the talent figured Som brero, at the weights, to be a sure thing. Blues All the Way. i The Star Ruby colt was accordingly the favorite at 13 to 10, with a heavy play on Articulate at 13 to S, while Bar ren and his friends proceeded to back Blues down from 6 to 1 to 9 to 2. 'From the- moment the barrier flew up' Blues took the track, and, running uiScr restraint, set a stlfT pace down .past the stretch around the turn and up the backstretch. Shaw kept Sombrero within a length of him all this 'time, and together they drew away from the others rapidly. At the head of tl stretch Sombrero made a bold attempt to get up, but when Martin let Blues down the latter gal loped away so easily that the backers of Sombrero broke Into a storm of kisses. JTon.o t- ,. rtfatcd Up at the Wire.- Blues was eased up to a walk at the j wire. Jlis time was 2:36 2-5. Sombrero finished six lengths before Advance Guard, who "was a length and a half in front of Articulate. The other stake event was the Holly Handicap for two-year-olds at about blx furlongs, in which Eugenia Burch v;as a receding favorite at 2 to 1, with Atrl cander, carrying top weight, tecond choice at, -5 to 2. and River Pirate, a whispered good thing, backed down to fives. A Desperate Struggle. It was a desperate struggle for the lead between Africander, Eugenia Eurch, Asraria, River Pirate and Fire Eater to the. head of the stretch, where Martin, who had never relaxed his punishment of Africander, drew away in a hard drive and won by a length in 1:11 1-5, with River Pirate beating Fire Eater for the place by a head. Eugenia Burch was a length" behind. f Young Henry ran a sensational race in the Highweight Handicap for all ates at about six furlongs. He picked up 130 pounds and was practically left at the post, but L.yne iook aim by way of the overland rjgute, and by means of tner gctic Tiding he ran over his field in the stretch and won driving by three lengths from Setaukct, second choice, who beat Examiner, a 25 to 1 shot by a neck.

The baseball team representing the Eastern Athletic Club this season again successfully defended the title to th-.1 championship of the District, which it firsti.wou in, .1899, when it .defeated,, the. crackBurcau .of Engraving, 'the; Sham rocks, and qther strong teams. Since that time it has not suffered defeat, and has met every team of any prominence hereabouts. Its last big game was with the Radfords at American League Park, in which the Easterns won. Manager Rice is in communication sith Manager Loftus for a game with the Senators at the close of the league season, and ho hopc-s- also to play 'a game here ' with the famous Cuban Giants. Team of Star' Players. The team undoubtedly, comprises all the crack players in the city, and its members have during the past season materially strengthened many of the departmental and other teams, and their services were nearly always in demand for special games. ' Harry Oolliilowcr, pitcher and captain of the team, is a very popular local player. He started his baseball career with the Georgetown University team and after that played with Virginia, Texas, and Xew York leagues, and with the Cleveland Xational League team. He has never severed his connection with the Eastern Athletic Club. , Wahler is one cf the best pitchers In thn THKtrir.t. and his services are nearly always in demand'for special games. He started with the Congress Heights team in '9S. and earned a place with the East ern Athletic Club in 1900, and has been with it over since. Venable, shortstop, and Gates, catcher, arc among the most popular and capa ble players in the District. They arc undoubtedly the stars of the city In thejr respective positions. They have both filled professional berths, and one at leas! will probably sign again next season in his old place. "Charlie" King, first base, and F. J. Rice, right field, were among the crack Hich School players of last year, and ably fill any position in the infield also. They give promise of playing a very fast game next seasonv McCauley at Second. McCauley, at second base, is one of tho best and most favorably known players in tho local game, and is cne of the Eastern's best players. He was in charge of the Bureau tram when it won tho departmental championship, and has always played the game so well that he Nearly All Crack Players of the Organ ization Compete for the Cup E. D. Carusi Captures the Prize. The Columbia Golf Club opened the fall season on the links 'in earnest yes terday, with a medal score handicap tournament, opYm to its members only. The conditions -,,were favorable In every respect' and as a result some good 'golf was witnessed by a fair gal lery. Considering the season, the en tries were quite numerous, and included nearly all the crack players of this popular club. It is proposed to hold similar events each Saturday during the season, the green committee having decided upon this form of contests instead of a tourney,-, open to all comers, as it was at fTret ' Intended to hold. . These matches will give many members an opportunity of competing in tourney play, who would not otherwise do so, if they had to play against visiting cracks. The course was In fine shape, though several of the putting greens were rolly and heavy and lacked life. It taking sev eral strokes more than in the spring matches to make some of the holes. About half of the eighteen holes were on temporary greens and this may ac count in a measure for the scores made by some o'f the crack players. Cup Won by Carusi. The cup which was offered as a prize was won by E. D. Carusi, with a gross total of So, wi'.h a handicap of 12, bring ing him 73 net. Messrs. E. S. Duvall and W. Bennett tied at 75 net for second place, and Mr. T. Lanston finished third with 70 net, having a gross score of 94 with an 18 allowance. ' Dr. L. Lee Harban was the only scratch man and finished considerably lower down the list than Is usual to see this clever golfer. He played a splen did game, as the score SI shows. This is but one above bogy for the reg ular course. Mr. J. C. Davidson had a handicap of 5 on a gross of 86, which gave him tho same figure at which Dr. Harban finished. , Dr. Walter S. Hnrban had "a net of 85, his handicap being 5 on 90, and Mr. Louis Weaver made it in 91 gross, with a handicap of S. i Had Numerous Entries. Thirty-five entries were posted en the score-hoard, but of these only twenty one went over the course and turned In cards. The handjeaps ranged from 5 to 24 strokes, and in several instances it was agreed that the allowances were too libera!. The entrants who withdrew or failed to hand in cards ucre Messrs. Sefton, G.

The season on the gridiron Is neces sarily a short ope and Thanksgiving Day witnesses its close, by which time the indoor contests have gotten into full swing and championships are in a 'fair way of being shaped. All the local bowling leagues have had their opening meetings for organi zation and adoption of schedule except the Washington Traction Relief Asso ciation, one of the largest and most ac tlve here, and this will -probably take up the championship -work in the next week or two. "W'lfh the exception of the bankers, none o'f the leaguers will start their championship series before (he, second week in October. In the meantime all are busy shaping up their teams, trying out candidates and preparing the alleys to meet the requirements of the inspec tion committees. District League Changes. The District League, which met last week and re-elected Mr. H. C,. C. Stiles president, will probably have more changes In trie make-up of its teams than It has ever experienced since its organization. The- complexion of every team win do so changed that each will be compos ite of all the others, as each will draw bowlers to it that last year, and be fore that, steadily figured in the make up of this or that team and were re garded as fixtures there. This changing about is going to have the effect of making some of the former strong teams weaker, and these will be, to some extent, easy picking for some of those they formerly fattened their averages on. Xotwithstanding this, it is believed that the league teams will be mor-J even ly matched than ever before, and for this reason the championship lace snouid De a hot one from tne nrsi tc ins iasi game bowIedT New Line-Up a Secret. The make-up of several teams is a state secret. Their composition is no, mader known now,- and will probably not be known until they are registered with the secretary, for the reason that tho new team managers do not want to run the chance of losing their plajprs through whatever Influence that might be brought to bear by tteir old club mates. The Y. M. C. A. was not represented rtt last week's league meeting, as it has formally withdrawn Us membership. The reason for this was its inability to have its alleys put In shape, -jarly enough to meet the requirements "of the Inspecting committee. The new teams the league will add to its membership are strong and have i large following, and will materially strengthen the old organization. Bank Clerks' Bowling League. The members of the Bank Clerks' Bowling League are entering into the spirit of the sport with an energy and a zeal in keeping with the hustling nature of their work behind the big counters. The candidates for places on the va rious teams are taking daily practice on the new Palace alleys, where all the'J league games will be bowled, and a num ber of good totals have been bowled. The league will begin its chempion ship series on September 29 Instead of October 6, as given in original schedule, which latter has been advanced one week on account Of the G. A. R. en campment, which begins on the original date fixed. Xo games will be bowled during G. A. R. week. The Traders' Bank team, having with drawn from the league, the Washington Loan and Trust Company team has been substituted and will play on the dates originally fixed for the Traders. President of the League Francis R. Dooley is very enthusiastic over the prospects of the organization, and hopes to make a showing which will compare favorably with the work of some of the other leagues. Crack District Bowlers. Because of the number of high Indi vidual scores made on the splendid new Palace alleys, demonstrating that they are exceptionally fast, it has been sug gested that two teams selected from among the crack bowlers of the District League play a set of games thore to see how large a team total can be made. Manager C. E. Brown ha3 arrangea for n set of three test games for next Thurs day evening at 8 o'clock, and the ten bowlers who will make up the two teams are known as cracks in bowling cir cles. As an incentive to do their level best, in addition to making a new local team record, a valuable prike will bo given to winners. Thp players aro: Messrs. Brosnan. Roderick. Miller, Smith, Bruegger, Bur dine, Pearson, Rice, Armstrong and Scheuerraan. Another lot of cracks J which will include Harlow, Brown, Crist, Laue, Brandt, spless, Ludwig. Hamilton.
