\u25a0Waterhouse cup at two and a quarter
miles as the principal attraction. Com
ijsg Just two weeks before the Thornton
stakes at four miles the cup Is of par
ticular Interest, as it serves to give a
line on the candidates for the longer
race. There are eighty-three eligibles
for the cup, which will have a value of
more than $4000. and a good field Is
assured. Among the horses entered are
Proper, Logistilla, Reservation, Xealon.

pan, Mamie Algol, Dusty Miller. Vete
rano, W. B. Gates. The Only Way.
Ramus, Borghesl. The Borgian, Edwin

The "Hatagoo handicap over the Fu
turity course will be the feature tomor
row, end on Wednesday there will be the
Aloha handicap at a mile and a furlong,

Jockeys Scoville and Graham were
Miller's closest rivals ln the final week
of- h!s local engagement. The premier
jockey piloted thirteen winners during
the week, while Scoville and Graham
added five firsts each to their credit.
The riding of Jockeys L. Williams and
Brown showed a lamentable falling oft.
Brown finished outside the money with
eighteen of the twenty-four mounts
.that he had during the week. Williams
was not out of the money so frequently,
i>yt he scored only two firsts out of
'twelve chances, although he was sec
«.nd with six- of his mounts. The riding
record for the week was as follows:

HARMONY IS RESTORED
IN BANKS OF OARSMEN
The oarsmen of San Francisco and
vicinity buried the hatchet last week,
"when the officers of the Pacific Associa
tion of Amateur Oarsmen m«t the offi
cers of the Pacific Athletic Association
in the rooms of the Olympic Club. A
reunion of the rowing interests was ad-
c vocated by William Greer Harrison,
president of, the Olympic Club; T. T.
Fltzpatrick, president of the Pacific
Athletic Association; C.' E. A. Creight
tom president of the South End Rowing
Club; A. G. Bell. J. J. Cronin and J. yon
Staden. It \u25a0was unanimously voted to
submit to the respective clubs the fol
lowing proposition:
That the Pads'* Association of Amateur Oars
tnen j;s an organization Join the Pacific Athletic
Aw-ociation, npon tbe \u25a0 understanding that the
Olympic Club will join the Pacific Association of
Amateur Oarsmen.
This leaves only the South Ends out
of the combination, and Fitzpatrick and
Cronin will recommend to that club
that it follow the lead of the Olympic
CJub.
William Greer Harrison expressed a
desire to do all In his power to advance
the interests of the oarsmen. On be
half of the Olympic Club, he offered all
the prizes for a regatta to be held un
der the auspices of the j Pacific Asso
ciation of Amateur Oarsmen. This of
fer will not affect the annual regatta
on Lake Merritt on the Fourth of July,
which will be held as usual. It will
assure, however, a regatta on this sld«
of the bay, probably during the au
tumn.,
President Harrison extended an invi
tation to the Pacific Association of Am
ateur Oarsmen to hold all of its meet
ings at the Olympic Club.
By the terms of the suggested agree
ment all rowing interests on the bay
will be under the control of the Pacific
Association of Amateur Oarsmen, but
the latter will be subject to the rules
of the Pacific Athletic Association,
which is the coast representative of
the Aamateur Athletic Union of the
United States.

butcher and llTes at 229 Fifth street.
MIKE RILEY OF TONOPAH
AFTER ANOTHER MATCH
Mike Riley of Tonopali has broken
out in a new spot and is trying to get
Cyclone Thompson to discuss a match.
The Nevada man serms to note what'
fighters are in tlie public eye and then
enters Into negotiations with them.
Riley's offer to Thompson is some
what out of the ordinary. He wants
the Cyclone to fight Harry Lewis at
142 pounds, although Thompson Is a
lightweight. He offers him 80 per cent
of the receipts, after paying the referee
and the preliminary fighters. This? is
equal to about 75 per cent of the gross
receipts. Riley also agrees to pay the
training expenses of the fighters.
Thompson will accept If he does not
get a match here In March with either
Britt or Hyland.
When the Supervisors select the
clubs which they will favor with per
mits for the next year they shouTd
take Into consideration the service the
clabs have rendered the public in the
matter of conducting fights. The club
managers who have shown incompe
tence should be rtired to private life
and the men who show consideration
for the men who patronize the shows
should be favored.
The California Club management at
its last show was nothing less than a
scandal. The ushers gave no considera
tion N to ticket holders, but tried to hold
up everybody for a tip before showing
them to the seats for which" they held
coupona. As this club has never -been
able to cope with the evil it has been
suggested that it charge a flat rate for
admission to the pavilion and then, let
the spectators get the seats in the
order of their arrival. The Super
visors should not errant permits to
clubs which have proved unable to
treat with fairness the men who pat
ronize'them". The purchaser of a ticket
should be provided with ihe seat for
which he holds a coupon and not find
the 6eat occupied when he reaches the
ringside.

THE SA^ FRANCISCO CALL. MONDAY; JB^BRITAEY 25; 1907.
FAST SPRINTERS MEET
IN LAST RACE TODAY
Little Class to Several of
the Other Events on
the Card
The Call's Selections
J. R. Jeffery
Ffrat race^ — Grlffln entry, Mem
orize, Keene ejjtry.
Second race — Darthnla, The
MlxMiuriaa, Early Hours.
Third race— Pal, Holla, W.^B.
Gates.
Fourth race— Kogo, Dnke of
Orleans, Treasure Seeker. . '
Fifth race— Pontotoc, Instruc
tor, Sahara.
Sixth race — Ethel Day, Sir
Brillar, Lisaro. .
Today's card at Emeryville is of med
iocre quality. The sport will begin
with a race for two-year-old flllies. H.
T. Griffin's Abbey should win. Memor
ize will be a contender. Chenowee
looks the best of the balance.
Picking the probable winner In the
second is not easy, as there is little
form to the' bad bunch entered. Dar
thula is the class, but does not appear
to call for much.. The Mlssourian has
speed, but is somewhat of a morning
glory.
Pal will win the third If he can go
the route. There is apparently little
choice to the balance.
Kogo has run some creditable races
and may be able to take Duke of Or
leans' measure in the fourth. Treasure
Seeker and Little Minister .ran better
at Ascot than they have here.
Pontotoc has been showing speed
in his recent races and may do in the
fifth. Instructor should be the con
tender. Sahara will find the distance
to her liking and is dangerous.
Ethel Day is capable of better races
than she has run here and with good
racing luck may beat Sir Brillar In
the final race of the day. Lisaro has
not been out in a long time and may be
short. With a race under his belt after
his letup he^ would be very dangerous.
Kokomo had a world of speed his last
out. but is up against it here.

Clever Horsemen Def eat Santa Barbara Team
Decisively on Charles W. Clark's Field
R. A. Smyth
Burlingame Country Club, pololsts
lived up to their hard-earned reputa
tion of being brilliant players by de
feating the Santa Barbara' four handily
yesterday on the field of
Charles W. Clark, near San Mateo. The
final score was eight goals ( to one.
,The attendance was the largest ever
attracted by a game here, both the
fashionable set and the people of the
countryside being largely represented.
The spectators showed a knowledge of
the finer points of the game and were
liberal with their applause throughout.
While the artistic polo- pavilion "was
reserved for Mr. Clark'§ special- guests,
the outsiders selected all the other
points of vantage from which they
could view the game. They sat along
the side lines like so many railbirds,
and beat hasty retreats when the ball
came their way and was followed by
eight galloping horsemen, who did not
seem Inclined to pull a rein in their
headlong flight.
An accident to Dr. E. J. Boeseke of
the Santa Barbara team was the only
untoward incident in an otherwise per
fect day's sport. Near the end of the
fourth period his pony, in trying to
turn quickly, missed its footing and
slid some distance on It* .Bind 'feet.
The pony finally, fell over backward.
It was equipped with a Mexican sad
dle and the horn of this struck Boeseke
on the mouth, rendering him uncon
scious for several minutes, v The other
players went to his assistance quickly
and ho was soon able to leave the field.
He recovered rapidly from -the effects
of the accident, but /was unable to
continue; in the game. His place was
taken by Cyril Tobin and the teams
played out the full six periods^ ' The
teams: lined, up: \u25a0, ;

John Lawson drew rounds of applause
from the spectators by scoring after a

the ball. The Burlingame men com
menced to force their opponents soon
after" •the ball was put into play and
R. M. Tobin nearly scored. Soon after

FORM UPSETS ENLIVEN
TENNIS TOURNAMENT
Play was resumed yesterday in the
Alameda county championship tennis
events . on tile courts across the , bay.
Rain necessitated a* postponement at 1
o'clock, after little progress had been
made. *
Seven matches were played in singles,
two. of .which were won by Charles Fo
ley, the local, expert.
\u25a0 Edward Finnegan of the Golden Gate
Club upset the "dope" when he forced
Foley to a three-set match. After los
ing the first set Finnegan. took the sec
ond, but the third went to Foley. The
latter probably underestimated his op
ponent and took matters too easily in
the second-set, but Finnegan put, up a
strong game and deserves great credit
for his excellent showing. The score
was 6-2, 6-8, 6-3.
The other events brought together
players who were not evenly matched
and the contests were rather one-sided.
The surprise" of the day was the igno
minious defeat of Guy Lytton at the
hands of Harold Getz. • The latter is a
member of the Golden Gate Junior
Club, and, while he ranks second to
Maurice McLougWin- among the juve
niles^ he ; was ha/rdly expected to .out
class * Lytton. ,! Getz won in straight
sets, the score being 6-2, 6-2.
Horace -.Mann lost to Fitz Guerin in
straight sets. Both are ln the second
class of the Golden , Gate Club. The
ambidextrous crack was \u25a0no match - : for
Gruerin. as he; played yesterday. Mann
won only one 'game- in two sets," the
score being 6-0, 6-1."
The other, matches played resulted
as follows: . .
Charles Foley, defeated Byron Batkin 6-0, 6-3;
K. P. . Flnnigan defeated F. O. Harper 6-4.6-4 ;

AGED MAN RESCUED BY
SAILORS FROM THE BAY
enshrouds a battle -with
death In the waters of the bay off
Howard-street wharf last night, from
which aged Jacob Pope, who lives at
ISOS Masonic avenue, escaped with his
life just in the nick of time. Circum
stances point to an attempt at suicide,
but Pope, who Is 73 years old and
almost too feeble to talk coherently,
declared he was struck on the head by
some one unknown to him and shoved
into the water. \
After being resuscitated at the Har
bor Emergency Hospital last night he
said he had seized the chains of a
whaler" which was lying at the wharf
and there struggled for an hour to
keep his head above the water, trying
with his feeble shouts to summon
assistance. He was finally rescued by
two sailors, who took him to the hos
pital, but modestly declined to . give
their names.
Other circumstances Indicate that
Pope was tired of life. Hs left the
home of his sister, Mrs., Lena Hlnk.
with whom he lived, about noon yes
terday, leaving his money and watch,
but no note.
It had been suggested by relatives
that he go to the poorhouse. His
money had dwindled to about $100 and
he was discouraged by the prospect.
"I, don't want to die." ho said last
night, "but I have no place to go." It
is believed he repented of his act after
lumping into- the water and shouted
for help.
