Something that seldom is witnessed
on any race course was pulled off yes
terday afternoon at Santa Anita, when
Henry O. ran away half a mile on the
way to the post for the fifth race,
threw his rider, jumped onto the rail
ing of the barred entrance to the track
from the stable grounds, slid about
twenty feet on his side, and then fell
In a heap, yet getting back to the post
and winning a race at a mile and a
half in time that eaualed his own rec
ord, which also is the coast record for
the distance. After a horse runs away
while going to the post or in a false
break, he is not considered as having
any chance thereafter. Henry was very
docile after his escapade, however, and
walked back to the barrier and broke
with the bunch.
First Peep jumped into the lead at
the start and led all the way around
into the home stretch, with Henry O.
always near at hand. After turning for
home Henry moved up slowly and First
Peep began to quit. Goldway and
Beauclerc also moved up fast, and soon
all three had passed First Peep. They
hooked up for a hard drive in the last
sixteenth, when Henry gamely stuck
to the task set before him, and although
so tired that he swerved all over the
track, he lasted long enough to win
from Goldway and Beauclere, which
finished in the order named. It not
only was remarkable for Henry to win
tho race, but the biggest surprise came
when the official time was hung out.
It was 2:311-5, and equaled the coast
record sent recently by Henry O. When
Jockey Clark rode him back to the
charmed circle reserved only for win
ners, the great crowd stood up and
cheered for several seconds.
Attendance Breaks Records
The crowds that attended the races
yesterday broke all local records, it be
ing estimated that 15,000 persona were
on the grounds when the Rose selling
stakes, the feature event, was run. For
the first time this season every pro
gram, 10,000 in number, *iad been sold
before 2 o'clock. HunrL-eds and prob
ably thousands failed to get the pro
djams they wanted. The grand stand

races were on the program,
with the Rose selling stakes as the fea
ture. Thi3 event was won by Sam Hil
dreth's Woodcraft in a hard drive with
Molesey and Edwin T. Fryer. Starter
Hcltman sent them away to a good
start, and after the field had jammed
and bumped itself into shape at the
first turn it was a real horse race, with
nearly every horse having a position of
contention at some period of the race.
Woodcraft was reserved out of the
bumping and the early pace and moved
up slowly under a great ride by Schil
ling. In the final eighth it seemed that
any one of four horses might win, but
Woodcraft shot out of the bunch and
soon overhauled" the leaders, winning
from Molesey because Schilling put up
a stronger finish than did Page on
Molesey. Edwin T. Fryer was poorly
ridden. Powers taking him up to the
pace early and holding him there, with
the result that he had nothing left for
the finish, and he did not show that
great gameness and speed at the finish
that he usually puts up. He was good
enough to get the show money, how
ever.
Flying Squirrel Is Speedy
The first baby race of the season
brought out a field of nine starters,
and Flying Squirrel, true to his name,
hopped into the lead immediately and
kept drawing away gradually until he
had a big margin of advantage at the
■wire. Green Dragon, from the Schrei
ber stable, seemed to be a dangerous
contender until the Thomas colt got
straightened out in the stretch, when it
was no race. Green Dragon finished
second, and Sepulveda, finishing with
a. sensational burst of speed, got the
show money.
Dominus Aroi, the most consistent
sprinter on the coast just now, toted
high weight to victory over Big Chief,
the stake horse that Tom Williams sent
south to be prepped for his winter
stake engagements. Green Seal showed
ahead of Cloyne and Waterbury was
left at the post. The time, 1:11 3-5, was
the fastest of the day.
Oriflamb had no great job of winning
the opening race from Jane Laurel and
Wistaria, and did it in good time.
1:25 2-5 for the seven furlongs. It was
a $500 selling race and high weights
were the rule.
Pal, running for the first time in the
colors of the stable, carried a.
big bundle of weight and won an easy
victory in the third race, stepping seven
furlongs In 1:25 with 119 pounds up and
beating Lord Stanhope and Alma Boy.
After the race Red Walker, who for
merly owned Pal and lost him after his
previous winning race, bid him up to
$800, taking the tmrse away from his
new owners.
Varieties ran a consistent race in the
last event and won from Pretension
and Niblick in the hardest kind of a
drive. Varieties allowed others to
make the pace and trailed away back
for six furlongs of the mile journey, but
Clark set him down after turning for
home and made such a strong finish
that he got up in time to get the ver
dict in a tteht finish.

Rialto Gossip
A TTENDANCE records were broken
l\ at Santa Anita yesterday when
"*-*■ 15,000 persons witnessed the run
ning of the New Year events, and this
record crowd was more enthusiastic
than usual and more liberal in applause,
indicating that the sport of kings is
anything else but unpopular in this
part of the world. It was a representa
tive crowd of Los Angeles citizens and
their wives, and nearly every walk in
life was represented in the vast throng.
Millionaires, merchants, lawyers, doc
tors, politicians, mining magnates and
business men generally were there. It
also was an orderly crowd, there being
no rowdyism, drunkenness or unseemly
conduct to mar the occasion in any re
gard. Dr. J. S. Gardner, manager of
the meeting, and himself a thorough
business man and sportsman, was in
great spirits during the afternoon, and
wore a continual smile as he read the
definition of popularity as applied to
racing as expressed in the attendance
and faces of those who were on the
grounds. The horses ran formfully, too,
and no charge of crookedness could be
lodged against the horsemen for the
performances of their horses. It was a
good day's sport, and racing lost noth
ing at all by the results.
Hereafter the form chart of Santa
Anita races, minus the index numbers
and betting odds, will be printed in The
Herald. This much has been found to
be legal under the ordinances, and for
that reason and because there has been
such a howl for publication of the
chart since it was discontinued, it will
be printed as heretofore, minus the
changes already mentioned. The en
tries, arranged alphabetically and mi
nus the index numbers, also will be
run.
The Sunny Slope handicap, at seven
furlongs, will be the feature of an ex
ceptionally good card at Santa Anita
this afternoon. Owing to the fact that
yesterday was New Year's day and the
weekly stake feature was auvaticed a
day to make the card as classy and
complete as possible, there will be no
stake event to feature the card today.
But the Sunny Slope will be everything
that is requirM or expected of a stake
event, min^s the value of the money
offered, and a field that is far above
that which raced for the rich prize
offered yesterday in the Rose selling
staKes, from the viewpoint of pure
class, will go to the post to contest for
the honors and money offered. This
event will have, a gross value of $700.
The third race also is a more valuable
event than the average race at Santa
Anita, being a $500 condition race for
three-year-olds and upward at one and
one-eighth miles. Another baby race
also will be one of the features, and it
will bring out a new crop of juveniles,
being a three-furlong scramble for fil
lies and geldings.
There is an excellent prospect for
another new coast record in the Sunny
Slope handicap today, although It
seems like it always will be impossible to
set a new world record for the distance,
seven furlongs. Roseben made the
present record of 1:22 when at his best

The Indio baseball team is expected
to arrive this afternoon, and it is a pity

The Los Angeles team wants and
needs that victory, and the line-up

Every provision possible has been

The line-up of the Indio club will be
as follows: Waters, catcher; Smith,

form, and it looks like a mark to
shoot at for a long time to come. King
James and Meelick will carry the Hil
dreth colors and hopes in this event,
and will be opposed by another classy
pair, Prince Ahmed and Pinkola from
the Alvey barn. Mary Antony 11,
Glorio, Gemmell and Critic also are
named to start. This aggregation of
speed marvels should force a new rec
ord over a fast track. More clttss is
represented in this overnight handicap
than ever was seen in any stake race
hereabouts in other years.
Captain Frank King, one of the
world famous long distance oarsmen,
is anxious to arrange a match rowing
race with Prof. Al Treloar of the Los
Angeles Athletic club, to be rowed at
an early day. He suggests that the
race be rowed over a course extending
from Venice pier to the Long wharf,
Port Los Angeles, and return, a dis
tance of six miles each way. Pure
sportsmanship would be involved, only,
as the captain is willing to race for
the glory and a trophy that would
serve as a souvenir for the winner. It
certainly would be an event that would
excite great interest, owing to the
prominence of both men and the long
course over which the race would be
rowed, and it is hoped that the match
can be arranged.
Forbearance has ceased to be a vir
tue with the racegoing public and
since the Pacific Electric, which has
enjoyed a practical monopoly of the
business from Los Angeles to the
races and return, shows no disposi
tion to Improve its service for the ac
commodation of its patrons, an or
ganized effort will be made at once
to induce the Southern Pacific to put
on additional trains and arrange a
schedule that will be more satisfactory
to the public than that which is in
effect on the Pacific Electric lines. The
plans generally discussed by the inter
ested public are to ask tL- Southern
Pacific to run trains from the Arcade
station at 11, 12, 12:30 and 1 o'clock,
and, returning, leave the track at 4:15,
4:30, 4:45 and 5 o'clock. This service
will furnish seats for all and permit
a large number of those who are
forced to remain at the track until
5 o'clock an opportunity to ride home
without having to stand up and hold
onto straps or their neighbor's cloth
ing- during the long run to the city. If
the Southern Pacific grants the re
quest its rival will lose about two
thirds of its present patronage and a
long-suffering public will be much
obliged.
The policy of the racing association
to furnish owners of handicap horses
with plenty of opportunities for rac
ing their high-class bread-winners will
be continued throughout next week,
the program book showing five $500
events arranged, in addition to the
Glendora handicap, the weekly stake
feature. The $500 affairs are as fol
lows: Purse race for 4-year-olds and
upward at one and one-eighth miles,
Monday: Dos Robles handicap at one
mile, for 3-year-olds and upward,

M. L. Abbott, who formerly owned
a racing stable that was campaigned
on the coast for tv/o or three years,
writes from Seattle to the effect that
a fight club is being organized in that
city to hold boxing contests over the
ten-round route without decisions. Ab
bott is interested in the movement and
has a bunch of wealthy sportsmen as
sociated with him.
Jack Redmond, whose name out of
the ring is Henry Hoppe, wants to
get into a scrap with some of the idle
light' •eights hereabouts and bars none
of them. He is a most willing fighter
and usually wins, so it is difficult to
understand why he is permitted to re
main idle. His successes locally in re
cent months have made him a good
drawing card and the fans want to see
him in action again soon.
Red Walker got even with the Maine
stable yesterday for taking Pal away
from him via the selling race route a
few days ago. When Pal won the
third race. Walker stepped out and
boosted the selling price from $500 to
$800, forcing his new owners to give up
practically all of the purse to keep
their winner. W Talker and Markleln
in a selling race war would make
things lively around the track and
it seems tfcat this is what it will lead
to.
Famous sons of famous men, Charlie
Gates and W. A. Clark, jr., were vis
itors at the track yesterday. These
young multi-millionaires are thorough
bred sportsmen, as well as keen busi
ness men, and the excitement of the
chase (thoroughbred) appeals to them
as an excellent pastime. Clark prob
ably is more famous on the harness
circuit than with the runners, but he
is no stranger at the running tracks.
Frank Hayes, expert handicapper
and big bettor, is among the late ar
rivals from the east. He likes the
looks of the Santa Anita game and
will experiment with it for awhile, at
least. Now that the holidaj's are over
many other eastern sportsmen will
hike ftr Lc-s Angeles and the colony
should be materially increased in the
next ten days.

be surprising if he wins out enough to

Over Sloppy Track
OAKLAND, Jan. I.—Firestone, carry
ing the colors of Thomas H. Williams,
won the New Year's handicap at Em
eryville today from Light Wool, with
I Doranto, the favorite, third.
The event was run during a light rain
I and the track was sloppy. Over 12,000
persons were on hand to witness the
holiday event. The handicap was at a
mile and a furlong, and a field of five
went to the post, there having been
several withdrawals, owing to the bad
track.
Dorante ruled favorite throughout
the betting, but Firestone, Light Wool
and Montgomery also were well sup
ported. The start was good for all but
Don Enrique, and he sulked and re
fused to break.
Light Wool went out in front, fol
lowed by Dorante. with Firestone next.
In the stretch Miller called on Fire
stone and he closed fast, winning by
two lengths from Light Wool, which
tired somewhat on the rail. Montgom
ery was outrun throughout the journey.
The handicap was worth $2210 to the
winner.
The first 2-year-old race was won by
Gilbert Rose, a half-brother to Lee
Rose. He was outrun the first part,
but finished with a rush and evidently
is a high class youngster.

stood 10 to 4 in favor of the Druids.

the local boys, but was not in good
form. Suess of the other team also

Event Was Pitchers'
Struggle
The All-Stars and the Santa Bar
bara teams played at the opening game
yesterday afternoon of a four-day
baseball tournament at the South Side
Athletic club diamond, the latter win
ning, it is one of the hottest games
seen at that park since it was first
opened by Promoter Jack Doyle
Alter seven innings of big 'league
ball, neithere team scoring until the
last of the seventh, Pat Kineally,
trainer of prizefighters, became the
hero of the day for the Santa Barbara
team by making the only score by the
home run route. Pat sent the ball over
left field fence and after the game
Doyle presented Pat with a $5 bill.
The All-Stars played an errorless
game, while the Channel city club was
chalked up with only one error, that
having been made by third baseman
Rodner.
The game from start to finish was a
pitchers' battle between Toby of the
Pasadena club and Houlsby, the Los
Angeles twirler. Great support was
given both pitchers. Umpire Lane made
one rank decision by calling a fair ball
foul. The ban wa s inside the third
base line and the decision caused con
siderable illfeeling among the fans.

Los Angeles to Venice was announced.
