R^nfi ?7. ~ ting was f °rmerly Lady
faybil Cuffe, youngest daughter of the
fc-arl and Countess of Desart. ¦ Her
marriage to W. Bayard Cutting at All
balnts Church, Ennismoor Garden,
London, in April, 1901, was one of the
greatest social events of the English
metropolis that season and attracted
widespread interest, especially in that
it was one of the few occasions on rec
ord where an English noble woman be-
Ca^M he w ' fe ° f an American citizen.
at the time was secretary to
S3£^ S - ad0 S Choate and through official
position and wealth was enabled to at
tain an enviable position in London so
ciety After a prolonged honeymoon
on the eastern continent the young
couple Journeyed over to this side
where society feted them for aeveral
months.
Although the bride of young-Cutting
had always been accustomed to belmr
addressed as "lady" in her own coun
try she hafl hardly set foot on Ameri
can soil before she discarded her title
and thereafter insisted that she should
be known only as "Mrs." Cutting, the
wife of an American who possessed no
titles and wanted none. Frequently,
when former friends and associates of
her girlhood days have crossed the
Atlantic and greeted her as Lady Sybil
Mrs. Cutting quietly admonished, them
to address her as an American woman
Returning from Europe young Cut
ting entered the- office of his father and
has since become one of the in^mbers
of the bis firm. With the senior Cut
ting he is largely interested in beet
sugar lands, a number of which are
located in this State, and It was a de
sire to inspect, these 'properties that
prompted his trip to the coast at this
time of the year. -The Cuttings expect
to remain here for several days and
will then make a tour of f the interior of
the State. ' - , ,
W. Bayard Cutting Jr., son of one of
New York's beet sugar magnates and
prominent Jurists, accompanied by his
wife. Mr. and Mrs. George C. Ward
and Gordon Gardiner, arrived from the
East yesterday in a private car and ls
staying at the Palace.
Chief of- Police Wittman is making
an effort to enforce the ordinance of
the Board of Supervisors relative to
the speed of automobiles v.ithin the
fire limits, owing to the fact that the
chauffeurs insist upon racing their ma
chines on Market street in violation of
the measure, which provides that the
maximum speed shall not exceed eight
miles an hour and half that spef d over
street crossings, that the lives of pedes
trains who seek to cross the crowded
thoroughfare, may not be Jeopardized.
Acting under instructions from Chief
Wittman, Captain Spillane " of the
Southern station detailed Patrolmen T.
P. Kinch and A. F. McPhee Jast night
to arrest all who violated the provisions
of the ordinance. H. M. Holbrook,
treasurer of the firm of Holbrook, Mer
rill & Stetson, was the first automo
blllst to come to grief, but was soon
followed by Ralph D. Merrill, son of
J. F. Merrill of the same firm, and H.
J. Kaufman, manager of the • Bothin
Real Estate Company.
The three gentlemen were endeavor
ing to break Barney OldfieldV records
on Market street when overhauled by
the vigilant officers. The trio were
taken to the Hall of Justice and booked
on charges of violating bill 1068, ordi
nance 898, of the Board of Supervisors.
They were subsequently released upon
the deposit of $10 cash bail each.
The ordinance under which they- were
arrested was passed June 22 of this
year and was immediately signed by
the Mayor. In addition to the provis
ions relative to the speed the order
provides that upon approaching a
crossing a signal must be giwn to warn
pedestrians. A violation of ; the ordi
nance is punishable by a fine, not to
exceed $500 or by imprisonment in the
County Jail not to exceed six months
or by both such fine and Imprisonment.
It is anticipated that the arrests made
will have a salutary effect upon those
enthusiastic chauffeurs who make no
distinction between the racetrack and
Market street. >*•-.-

The trophy, which is a superb sample

honored place in the collection of prizes

reads as follows: "Memphis Trotting
Association, 2:05 class, pacers to wag
on—John C. Kirkpatrick's b. g. Clipper.
Time, 2:06%, 2:0654. World's ! record,

COLONEL JOHN C. KIRKPAT
RICK was the recipient yester
day of the handsome silver tro
phy won by his speedy pacer
Clipper, 2:05 1 .i, when driven* by
the millionaire reinsman, H. If. Dev
eroux. The California bred horse de
feated Tom Keene, driven by E. E.
Smathers, and Green Line, with C. K.
Billings up, in the race for 2:05 class
pacers to wagon, decided on October
25 last, at the Memphis Trotting Asso
ciation meeting.
The particular sums paid under pro
test are respectively $8070 and $5449 76,
being the taxes charged to the bank on
these two accounts. It is also claimed by
the bank that the State Board of Equali
zation had no right or power to consider
the value of the franchise or to add to
the assessor's valuation of the franchise.
The Bank of California paid its taxes
yesterday and at the same time filed a
protest with the City and County Tax
Collector against the payment of that
portion of taxes charged on account of
its franchise. The bank objects to the
assessment of $750,000 on the franchise
made by Assessor Dodge, and also ob
jects to the raise made by the State
Board of Equalization in the sum of
1175.000. "

of his trainer, James Thompson of
Pleasanton, who had his charge in per
fect condition for the Memphis meet.
Of course, Torn Keene, with a record
of 2:04^4, was considered invincible by
the Smathers following:, although
Green Line, the Billings entry, had
shown a mile In 2:05 only a few days
prior to the race. H. K. Deveroux of
Cleveland is considered one of the most
skillful amateur reinsmen in the coun
try, and when he volunteered to drive
Clipper the offer was quickly accepted.
The heats were intensely exciting and
the following paragraph taken from an
Eastern exchange gives a brief review
of the contest: After scoring twice to
an even start the word "go" was given.
As Clipper reached the quarter-mile
pole his nose was in tront, and from
there on he came along easily, finishing
the mile in 2:06%. The next heat was
a repetition of the former, Clipper win
ning, again in 2:06%, which made him
the champion wagon eeldlng of the
world.

other good men give him a high stand
ing in the ranks. Cordell ; Is a youth
who lately sprang from the amateur
ranks. His victory over Jack Kane and
his battle with Joe Angeli stamp him
as a fast youngster. Cordell will
undoubtedly develop into a good
Jimmy Britt started training for
Canole yesterday. He is in perfect
fettle and. will only do light work. The
twenty rounds he went through with
Seiger last week has helped to condi
tion him. : He no longer suffers sore
ness about the arms and body and is
faster than ever. Jimmy punched the
bag in the afternoon, and, after ten
minutes of heavy firing was breathing
easily. His wind could not be better.
He will do no boxing this week, for
fear he might hurt his hands.
Jimmy is confident that he will de
feat Canole. He acknowledges Canole's
superiority over Seiger and looks for a
hard fight. The three days' rest Britt
had after his battle with Seiger did
him lots of good. He took on three or
four pounds and he will have the extra
weight to take off , in the next three
days.
Canole^has not let himself out in
training for fear that people might get
a line on him. He certainly is a two
handed ' boxer, and the question
whether he can punch remains to be
proven next Friday night. Canole has
no trouble making a man like Fred
Landers look like a novice. He has
a true left hand. He seldom uses his
right, but when he lets it. fly it g'oes
with a vim. His right cross, and his
left uppercut aTe his pet punches.
Canole strips big and surprises every
body by the bigness of his legs. Eddie
Hanlon says, it, is a good sign when a
fighter, has stanch underpinning.
RELIANCE CXUB SHOW.
Gardner has cleverness and youth in
his favor and if he can assimilate Fitz
simmons' heavy wallops his chances of
victory are verv good. At all events
the ring-goers will see some fast and
heavy' battling when the pair meet un
der the auspices of the Yosemite Ath
letic Club on Thanksgiving eve.
Fitz's daily work consists of a ten
mile, run on the road in the. morning
and gymnasium work in the afternoon.
The work he goes through in the gym
nasium would affect many men. He
punches the bag for ten three-minute
rounds, boxes alternately with his
sparring partners as many rounds and
toys with the weights and bustles
around with his men. After dinner he
does a hundred-yard sprint up and
down the road to test his breathing ap
paratus. Early to bed is his practice
and he rises at ,an early hour.
Fitz asserts he never felt better while
in training. He is getting over a slight
cold and is becoming acclimated. His
general physical appearance -is good
and his spirits are the highest. He is
surrounded by people he. likes and who
understand him. He has a big bull
dog to keep him company and enliven
his daily runs by fights with other
dogs.
Gardner did a heavy day's work at
Larkspur^ yesterday. He was out on
the road at an early hour and strength
ened his legs, climbing over the hill3
of Marin Ccunty. In the afternoon
Greggains donned his pneumatic pad
and George landed blows that would
kill a man if he were not protected by
an inflated pad. This work is doing a
great deal of good for George. He says
It is harder than fighting, and it must
be, because Foley, Barry and Canole
seldom try it because , it is very fa
tiguing. Every one who has seen
GaTdner in training remarks on his
growth. He seems to have become
broader and bigger in every way.
Gardner admits this and says he is
stronger than he has ever been in his
life. He is still two pounds over
weight, but says he will have no
trouble making 168 pounds.
BRITT IN TRAINING.
GARDNER HAS YOUTH.
Fitz will have no trouble in making
168 pounds at 3 o'clock of the day he
battles with Gardner. At the conclu
sion of his work yesterday afternoon
Bob weighed 165%' pounds in the pres
ence of newspaper men. He said he
was willing to wager $5000 that he
could make 15S pounds if necessary.
The Cornishman is in splendid shape,
there is no doubt about that, but he
shows some signs of advanced age."
Beneath the eyes are little marks that
are usually seen in men who are ad
vancing In years. Fitz is a marvelous
specimen. ' of manhood, however. He
seems- to" possess his old time form
and will give his younger opponent a
hard battle. Kennedy and his other
sparring partner sailed into the big fel
low and Fitz satisfied himself in block
ing the punches with his mighty el
bows or on his massive shoulders.
FITZ DOWN TO WEIGHT.
"1 have examined his heart and lungs
and other organs." said the doctor,
"and I find them to be In perfect con
dition. His heart is particularly good.
1 examined his heart after he had
gone through violent exercise and the
beats were nearly normal and as good
as any athlete 30 years of age. His
muscles are flexible as those of a young
man."
Dr. Clarence F. Tillman, the Yosem
ite Club's official physician, visited
Fitzsimmons at his training quarters
yesterday and made a close examina
tion of the Cornishman. He used a
stethescope and other instruments to
make a scientific diagnosis of Fitzsim
mons' condition.
Although his battle- with George
Gardner is two weeks off, Robert Fitz
simmons is in splendid fettle. His eyes
ore bright and his skin has taken on
the ruddy hue of health. Fitz is as
awkward as ever, but he is there with
his usual heavy wallop. Fortunately
for Joe Kennedy, the horseshoer re
trains from using it in his boxing. Fitz
tries his punches on the heavy bag
and the residents of Alameda imagine
blasting is going on when he sends his
pile driving blows at the inflated
sphere.

tributed the defeat of the four
short-priced ones. It was simply poor
racing" luck. The attendance was large
and speculators recouped their losses
somewhat by setting it in thick on Ben
MacDhui. which won the last event In
runaway fashion.
Elfin Kins w as touted as the real
ripe one for the opening scramble over
the Futurity course, but Step Around.
the favorite, took rare of the King
William colt. Hatidor, a SO to 1 shot, cut
out the running and It took vigorous
riding on the r>art of Hildebrand, who
piloted Stei> Around, to nab the out
sider. At the wire the first choice led
Klfin King out more than two
lengths. Egg Nogg. a 10 to 1 chance,
Iran into the show.
It looked, on paper, as if Matt Ilogan
hnd fallen in with some mighty cheap
company in the f-ix furlong selling af
fair following, but he failed to throw
a natural. Four to five was quickly cut
to 3 to i and Matt got no piece of the
money. To begin with, Ferrell suc
ceeded in getting away very poorly
with the old gilding. Then the Chicago
rider got up to within a couple of
lengths of Quiet and supposed he had
the race won. Hogan doesn't like to be
Jollied, and when Ferrell let him down
he went all to pieces. Quiet, an 8 to 1
:»hot. ridden by Heed, experienced no
difficulty in beating Idogo and Madam
Hishop.
Barney Sehreiber's Dorice, a brown
daughter of Sain, and 12 to 1 in the bet
ting, captured the two-year-old scram
ble at five and a half furlongs. Felipe
Lugo, the fast Amigo-Los Angeles colt
from the Kaldwin stable, opened an
even money favorite for the race. By
degrees the j>rice floated to 2 to 1, and
See's handling of the youngster justi
fied the quotation. He fouritl more
pockets than he did on Saturday with
Kenihvorth, and was unplaced with
his mount. Hail, astride Durice, passed
Young Pepper on the stretch bend, and,
in a drive at the elope, led Sol Smith
out a head. Judge, from the stable of
>1. J. Daly, ran a good third. With any
fort of a fair ride. Felipe Lugo would
have won by himself.
Oliphar.t. the apprentice rider with
the Binder stable, should undergo a
course of schooling on how to make a
short turn. Ollphant had the mount
on Lord Melbourne in the mile and
seventy yard selling run. The horse
dosed a IT to lft favorite and was
downed \fp? than a length by Grail, the
second choice. Just before reaching
the str<Mrh turn Lord Melbourne was
almost lapped on Grail, which mare
was making the pace, when Ollphant
made a sweeping swing into the
stretch, losing at least two lengths.
This cost the first choice the race.
Frankie Keed. on Galanthus. put up a
mild* ride, losing" the show to Erne.
Albemsrle went to the post a 3 to 5
choice for the fifth event, and also
managed by Oliphant. finished in the
show. Glenarvcn, a maiden, whose
odds w^rt from 5 to 9 and 10, jumped
away in the lead and was never headed.
Firkaway. a 12 to 1 shot, with J.
Lewis in the faddle. ran home second,
four lengths ahead of Albemarle.
With nothing: much to beat. Ben
MacDhui, at odds of 7 to 10. made a
oathop of the concluding seven furlong
number. Bill Msssie ran second, four
lenpth before Frank Woods.
IT was blue Monday at Oakland

the betting. The track was heavy,
