Only One Outsider Got Home in Front
and That One Lacked a Heap of
Being Sucker Bait — Old
Timer Has Close Call
JAY DAVIDSON
1 • Only five favorites won in six races
yesterday afternoon at Santa Anita, i
." the sixth favorite—and the only losing )
one—failing to deliver the kale because
he was outrun fairly and squarely and
•without any serious fracture of form.
The sucker bait was not in evidence
\ during : the afternoon, but the public
■ gave the bookmakers the sixth beating
in seven days of racing. .Lord Nelson
at 3 to 5, Kntieid at 3 to 1, Old Timer
at 1 to 5, Animus at 2 to 6 and .Lee
I Harrison XI at 7 to 5, all favorites, won
in succession, and made it look very
much like a new record would be es- I ■
tablished in the victory of six favorites j
when the stable connections and the
pikers and plungers went alter the 2
I to 1 laid against John Lyle, favorite in
the sixth race, as if it was all over but
the shouting; but Orinamb beat John
away" from the post and took up the
• running at the three-quarters ana nev
er could be headed, although the fa
' vorlt« finished second.
The feature event of the card, if any
single event could be so honored, was
the third race, a mile Journey for the
older horses. Scratches left only four
starters, and Old Tinier was such a
moral cinch that he was made a 1 to 6
shot. . But he did not run like one.
He broke in front and stayed there all
I the way to the wire, but Powers had
to go to bat to keep him there long
enough to beat Hasty Agnes, who
hastened like fury in th« stretch, from
Winning the race. Owing to the short
, price laid against the chances of Old
. Timer, the talent divided its attention
between Hasty Agnes and Adriuche .
for the place. Hasty was backed down
from 20s at opening to 10s at post tmie,
and while she was credited with being
• a high class sprinter, many feared she
I would not hold her speed for the longer
distance. Martin rode a clever race
on her, however, and after holding her
out of the early pace to the stretch, he
Set her down for a sprint to the wire
and she almost copped. It looked like
she would win a sixteenth out, but
Powers drew his whip and put up his
best effort on Old Timer, and landed
the favorite winner by a narrow mar
: gin. : Adriuche finished third after stop
. ping badly in the stretch.
Lord Nelson Is Lucky
Lord Nelson, favorite in the opener,
; ■won a lucky race from Saracinesca.
The latter, owned by the Tammany
boss, Big Tim Sullivan, was best and
will beat Lord Nelson next out. With
the handicap of a poor getaway at the
barrier, he went to work like a horse
of good class and slowly made up
ground until he was only seven lengths
behind Lord Nelson when they turned
for. home. At the wire, under a good
ride by Ural, Saracinesca was half a
i length behind in second place and
would have won in a few more strides.
He probably was short and the race
• should put him on edge, so that he
will beat all this kind next out. Free
' -.night the Bear ran-a good race and
got the show money from Brennus by
a head.
Yankee Daughter was much fancied
at opening of betting in the second
race, but a plunge on the Peer and
■ Lula G caused the price to lengthen to
10 to 1 at post time. Entield, a crack
> mudder and in good form, went out
in front at the half and breezed from
•there to tru wire. Roy T, also heavily
-backed by the owner and his friends,
finished second an 1 Hardlyson was
third. Yankee Daughter. running
short, was fourth and the Peer collect
ed nothing by being fifth.
, Animus Finally Cops
Johnny Powers swore before the
fourth - race that if Animus failed to
; earn brackets in his cheap field he
'■ would recommend to Schreiber that the
gelding be killed outright, it looked so
easy. Owing to his poor form at Santa
.'Anita, despite that he was the class of
the race and figured to win by a mile
on his eastern form, the plungers would
; have none of him at 1 to 3, and hardly
. noticed him at 2 to 6. Orcagna was
played for place and show and others
behind the winner received play that
would not have resulted had the price
on , Animus been better. Animus
■jumped out in front at the start and
stayed there to the wire, romping un
der wraps at the finish with a margin
of a dozen lengths. Orcagna was sec
ond and St. Kilda was third.
Lee Harrison II appeared to be the
best good thing of the day, but the
bookies laid 8 to 5 against his chances
and nothing else was played to any
extent to win. He made a runaway
: race of it, winning from Elizabeth F
by ' nearly three lengths, and In the
easiest ■ manner possible. Elizabeth
was thoroughly at home in the going
; and . easily beat the others for the
place, Haber landing in third position.
Belle of Iroquoia ran a good race to
the stretch, but stopped as if short and
finished in the ruck. Ampedo also
gave up the ghost In the stretch, stop- ,
ping to nothing in the run home.
• . - Orlflamb surprised everybody by beat
ing John Lyle In the last race. John I,
■ looked like a good thing to make it I,
six straight winning favorites and Of
fut and his friends piled the dorlne in
I the bookmakers' strong boxes like it
' was Intended only as a time deposit.
He was away poorly, but Orlflamb was
best and sprinted out into the lead
'i and stayed there all the. way, having
- nearly three lengths the best of It at
the finish. Lyle was second and Third
."Rail stumbled into the third hole. None
of the others amounted to much In the
going. , ■.-.'■•■

PLAYERS MAY NOT
APPEAL TO COURTS
Opposers of Sunday Baseball Have
Submitted a Proposition to Team
Manager That Bids Fair
to Be Accepted
[Special to The Herald.)
PASADENA, Dec. 3.—There is a
prospect that the Sunday baseball
question may be solved out of court,
as It were, for the member! of the
men's clubs of the city who have op
posed Sunday baseball have submit
ted to Manager Harry Dexter of the
team a proposition which, if approved,
will pave the way for a mutual un
derstanding. The proposition Is that
each member of the various men's
clubs will agree to ottend at least
one baseball game each month or pay
in lieu thereof an equivalent of one
admission fee. In return th<> Pasadena
team is not to play on Sunday in this
city, but is to play its Sunday games
with the other teams on the grounds
of their out of town rivals.
It is understood that if Manager
Dexter accepts this proposition no
further objection will be raised to the
vacating of Ipswich street, which Is
needed to complete the baseball
grounds. If thiß proposition is not ac
ceptod it i» possible that an attempt
may he made by the club to secure
a baseball park just outside of the
city limits.
Manager Harry Dexter of the Pasa
dena ball team yesterday afternoon
presented to the Pasadena board of
trade the championship cup won lasf
year in the Winter ranks by the
Crown city club. The cup will be in
a glass ease and kept on exhibition
at the board of trade rooms. It is
doubtful if the team will be able to
keep irp its fine record of last year,
owing to thp disheartening influence
of the Ipswich street controversy and
the fact that the Crown city boys lost
considerable money spent on grading
the grounds through the interference
of the parties living in the direction
.' of thi* park.
The cup is engraved on one side as
follows:. "California Winter league
baseball championship, won by Pasa
dena. 1907,1908." On the other side
are the names of the managers and
players of the team.
Next Sunday the Pasadena club will
try conclusions with the San Pedro
teiim nt San Pedro.
HOUR OF HILL CLIMB
SET AT 1 O'CLOCK
On account of the difficulty in reach
ing Riverside from L.os Angeles by
motor car or train as curly aa 9 o'clock
In the morning, Uic hour for the hill
climb on Saturday has been advanced
to 1 o'clock In the afternoon. This will
allow of motorists driving from here
after daylight in the morning and
reaching Riverside In time for lunch,
thereby avoiding the necessity of stop
ping over night and giving up part of
Friday for the event.
By telephone yesterday afternoon O.
A. Dundas conveyed the news to The
Hi raid that the road was In good shapa
and- that the rainfall was very light at
that point.
Many of the entrants are on the
ground now practicing, and are re
ported as making fast time. Frank
Riifert is burning up the hill at a ter
rific gait in the Btoddard-Dayton, and
those who have been watching the try
outs pick him as t&e favorite so far.
The Apperson Jackrabbit was due to
arrite Tuesday, but did not get in. It
has paused Salt Lake and is <-xi>
in time to start. Hairy Harrison has
been laid up for marly v week paat
with lumbago, bul i« getting better

I I.M P.ARRY arrived last night, ac
cording to schedule, and was met
'" at the Arcade station bj a dele
gation ot epori imen In automobile*, and
escorted uptown In a dignified and royal
manner that must have made Jimmy
suell up a bit. He came from Chicago,
having gone to the windy town after
parsing Thanksgiving with his mother.
Jim was weary as a result of the long
ride, but said I hat otherwise lie felt in
line ipirltß and would he in line trim to

schedule with Al Kaufmann the night
ding New Year's day. It Is no
"kid" with Rarry when he tells of his
great hopes of winning from Kaufmann

in avywelghts with his claim as a near
champion. He knows he Is cleverer
than Kaufmann. and believes that this
tail nullities any advantage the native
nay have in height, weight and
reach. Since he cams back the boy

it was on exhibition up and down ihe.
Rialto until nearly midnight.
"Maurice Sayi rs says that his injured
hand is injured no more, but, on the
contrary is in better condition than it
ever was. He makes this, statement
as introductory to a few remarks re
garding a match with Dick Hyland.
Maurice warns to fight again, as he has
been forced to lay off for a long time
because of the sprained hand, and he
picks out Hyland as his victim. He
knows he says, that he can whip Hy

no questioning the fact that a Sayers-
Hyland match would Vie a great draw

and it is the match that the fans con

now If Hyland has improved as he

SAN PEDRO FREIGHT
RATES SUMMARIZED
CAPTAIN FRIES MAKES EXTEN
.SIVE INQUIRY
Wharfage, Rail, Dockage and Other
Charges at Los Angeles' Port
Compared with Those
of Bay City
Captain Amos A. Fries has prepared
a statement regarding San Pedro
freight rates after thorough Inquiry
among freight agents-railroad, steam
ship and wharf-shippers, custom house
officials and others competent to give
information. As a result he summa
rizes wharfage, rail, dockage and other
rates at San Pedro as follows:
On lumber, which Is the cheapest
rate, Items are:
Stevedoring from ship's side to cars,
75 cents per 1000 board feet. ■■"■■■
Dockage of ship alongside wharves
for vessels of 100 tons or less, $3.50 per
.lay J This Increases at approximately
$1 per 100 tons up to 1200 tons, after
which the rate remains fixed at $14. «o
steam schooners can unload about
250,000 feet of lumber per day, but
sailing vessels much probably
about 70,000 feet per day.
The pilotage rate on foreign vessels
is fixed by the state as follows: For
vessels over 500 tons gross register
when docking in the harbor, $5 for
each foot draft and 5 cents per ton
cross registered tonnage both coming
and going. The actual charges are
said to be considerably less than the
above. For all vessels under 500 tons
the rate appears to be $5 per foot draft
for either outer or Inner harbors.
The wharfage rate for general mer
chandise -is 50 cents per ton placed on
Southern Pacific wharves if consigned
to parties in San Pedro. If consigned
to Los Angeles the wharfage (except
ing, of course, the dockage of vessel)
is included in the freight rate to this
city. Over independent wharves, such
as the North Pacific Steamship com
pany's wharf, the rate Is 50 cents per
ton, not including dockage of vessel.
Freight rates from San Pedro to Los
Angeles in less than carload lots are
$2 20, $2.40, $2.80 and $3 per ton for gen
eral merchandise, depending upon the
classification. In carload lots, 30,000
pounds minimum, the rate on grain Is
$1 per ton; lumber, $1.20; flour, $1.60;
canned goods, $2. _
Rate Is Variable
For points beyond ■ Los Angeles the
rate is very variable. Lumber in car
load lots, for intance to or from LI
Paso, is the same in both directions
for both Los Angeles and San Pedro.
To Riverside there is a difference of 10
cents a ton in favor of Los Angeles.
On cement the ■ rates on carload lots
are as follows: San Pedro to Colton,
$3 per ton: Colton to San Pedro, $3.30;
Los Angeles to 'Colton, $1.50; Colton
to Los Angeles, $1.50.
In comparing wharfage rates at San
Pedro with those at San Francisco,
whfch are bound to average 58.4 cents
per ton, there must be added for San
Pedro one-third of the San Francisco
rates for pilotage,, because In the San
Francisco rate of 58.4 cents the pilot
age is included, and as the , foreign
commerce of San Francisco equals
about one-third of the total, that is the
correct fraction to use for San Pedro.
The dockage must also bo considered,
which may vary from 4 to 10 cents per
ton, or even more, depending upon the
speed with which the vessel is un
loaded. •.
Taking lumber as an example, which
is the one used by Captain Fries in
figuring profits, largo lumber dealers
say the stevedoring rate of 75 cents
per 1000 gives about 40 cents per 1000
profit. Add for sailing vessels 10 cents
per 1000 dockage charges (it will be
perhaps one-half or a trifle less for
steam schooners) and It will figure 50
cents per 1000. The actual wharfage
on lumber is 44 to 50 cents per 1000,
depending on whether the ship is a
sailing or steam vessel, or about 26 to
30 cents per ton, excluusive of actual
cost of stevedoring and,pilotage,• • as
against 13 1-2 cents stated as the aver
age for San Francisco. ;,m^

NOTABLE WORK PUBLISHED
BY PASADENA SCIENTIST
"The Physical Basis of Civilization"
is a good and readable book from the
pen of T. W. Heineman, a well known
resident of Pasadena. It deals with
two problems that throughout all ages
have interested intensely the thought
ful of our species. First, how it has
come about that man, alone of all liv
ing creatures, stands and moves erects
and, second, how it is possible to ac
count for the vast difference* that ex
ists between human and the most ad
vanced brute Intelligence.
These two problems are discussed
from the standpoint of the most recent
and enlightened scientific research, and
their consideration brings the author,
after the establishment of his main
thesis, to a survey of the main socio
logical conundrums of the day. He is
carried and carries his reader to an
analysis of the causes that have
brought about so striking a difference
in character and habits between man
and woman, and it is shown that while
the conditions of primitive life natural
ly selected as the surviving masculine
type that which was fitted for war, it
also selected as the surviving feminine
type that which had the characteristics
we have learned to associate with the
most exalted ideals of womanhood.
The conclusions reached in this con
nection are pre-ominently complimen
tary to woman, if the term "compli
mentary" can be used with reference
to 'an evolution that is shown to have
been the necessary sequence of cause
and effect.
The foundation of the work, how
ever, is the demonstration that two
small anatomical modifications, result
ing from inevitable evolutionary devel
opment, determined the adoption of the
upright posture and fashioned man as
we know him today.
The Revolutionary Moment
There came a moment at which our
brute ancestors were forced to aban
don the horizontal and adopt the up
right attitude.
They must have been forced to do
this, for the change—the most revolu
tionary in the history of life in the
universe— brought with it unspeak
able disadvantages to the human race.
The bones, ligaments, tendons and mus
cles which had screened and protected
the vital parts so long as the body
maintained its horizontal position
thereafter exposed instead of protect
ing them. The bones, ligaments, mus
cles which had hitherto firmly support
ed the viscera, reproductive organs,
etc., thereafter left them loosely de
pendent, unsupported.
Particularly was this the case with
the child-bearing female. The foetal
burden, no longer near the ground and
distributed horizontally over the en
tire length of the abdominal muscles,
was compelled to take up a position In
which it caused an exceptionally ln-

capacitating strain on almost every
movement, subjecting the woman *o
endless risks unknown to the quad
ruped.
Clearly the change, like all true revo
lutions, must have been forced.
How? This is the problem which the
author has set himself the task of solv
ing in "The Physical Basis of Civiliza
tion," published by Forbes & Co., Chi
cago.
The author's answer is that, as the
result of natural selection, a variety
came into existence in which a pair
of big toes took the place of the two
opposable thumbs that the ape famil:/
still possesses. A pair of prehensile
posterior hands was transformed into
two feet, and tree life from that mo
ment became Impossible.
The struggle for existence was trans
ferred to tlu> surface of the earth,
where it could not be conducted on
such "all fours" as our ape ancestors
owned. The best the monkey can do
in that position is to walk on his
| knuckles.
Transformation Complete
The change to the upright attitude
brought about the other anatomical al
teration, and the transformation was
complete, the form which the human
species possesses today becoming fixed.
The opening at which the spinal cord
passes through the bony plates of the
skull was shifted X little farther back,
placing the head in the only position
In which It can b» carried with ease
when the body is In an upright posi
tion.
Such is the author's explanation of
the evolutionary process that resulted
in man as we have him today. It is an
explanation entirely In accord with the
teachings of the strictest school of
evolution&Ty science, natural selection
having brought about an anatomical
variety of type and nature having pro
ceeded without a jump.
It may be noted at this point that
"The Physical Basis of Civilization is
an enlarged and revised edition of a
former and smaller work by the samo
author entitled "Psychic and Economic
Results of Man's Uprightness, and
that this last named work was sub
mitted for criticism to tc select circle
of 100 university presidents in this coun
try and throughout Europe. The repl es
received from eighty of these gentle
men, who stand at the very apex of
modern scientific thought, all sense a
profound appreciation of the value _ of
the line of investigation the author has
PlScience of course, is international,
but since the "home products" move
ment la«or the moment the rage local
pride should add Incentive to the pur
chase and study of a work that is worth
far more than the extremely moderate
price at which it has been put on the
rn Theetphyslcal Basis of Civilization.
