THE CALL'S RACING PAGE
New Contenders Come Forward and Only Two
Favorites Are Successful at Emeryville
J. R. Jeffery
The Emeryville track was not far
from fast yesterday for the first time
since the setting in of the winter
rains early in December, and horses
that had fierured prominently over the
had tracks found themselves relegated
to the rear, while fresh contenders
carried off the spoils. This is only in
line with the experience of past sea
eons, for each winter at the close of
the usual long spell of wet weather
the horses whose speed has been
dulled by constant campaigning
through the mud invariably are com
pelled to take a rear position when
track conditions improve.
Yesterday's list of winners was
made up of two favorites, two third
choices and two long shots. The win
ning favorite* were heavily backed
Rnd there was also substantial sup
port for fet. Elmwood and Monaco
Maid, the two successful third choices,
but Matt Hogan and Blue Heron, the
winning outsider*, had shown so little
in public that th^y were not even
seriously considered by the average
racegroer.
ST. ELMWOOD TRIUMPHS
The seven furlong sprint which was
carded b.s the fourth race on the pro
pram was really the feature of the
afternoon's t=port. In It St. Elmwood,
Rudolph Spreckels' splendid 4 year
old son of St. Symphorlen-Installatrix,
triumphed over a clever band of
in decisive style. St. Elra
woqfl, whose mud form had been far
below the clever class he had shown
on th« dry track early in the season,
Frreadeagfled his field from start to
finish and the issue of the race was
never In doubt from the moment that
the barrier went up. St. Elmwood
acted badly at the post as usual, but
Tlegg-ie Davis succeeded in getting
h!m away to advantage, and he took
the lead almost instantly. Timotny
TVen and Bye Bye IL two long shots
That had been played for killings,
\u25a0were the contenders throughout and fin
ished second and third respectively,
several lengths behind the \u25a0winner,
whosfe victory was scored with ease. The
chances of several of the contenders,
including Janeta, the favorite, And
Mas*a, the second choice, were spoiled
by a bad Jam at the start, for which
Bye Bye appeared to be principally
responsible. Woolma ran a creditable
race and finished a close up fourth,
tvhile the others were badly beaten off.'
I.OXG SHOTS rfv MOXEV
The choices cut absolutely no figure
In the decision of the opening race,
old Matt Hogan. a 30 to 1 shot, Furze,
nt 13 to 1, and Pinaud, a 10 to 1 chance,
monopolizing the three positions on
which the books paid off. Mrs. Mat
thews and Rosi Nl N> had the early
speed, but both of thorn stopped to
nothing in the final furlong. Matt |
-Hojran, always -within striking dis
tance, closed with a rush on the ex
treme outside, and got up In the clos
ing strides to beat out Furze, which
looked all over the. winner when the
-pace makers began to quit. Expectant.
the lukewarm favorite, lost all chance
by getting off last. Peerless Lass,
T>iayed down to 5 from S for a killing,
failed to run back to her previous
good race and was never prominent.
Little Jane won the 2 year old event
In a way that makes her loom as a
jrood filly. Outrun In the early stages
by A. B. Spreckels' Carmisa, she game
ly made up ground in the long stretch ,
drive and took the Jead from Carmisa
at the paddock to win with Jockey
Sandy easing up. Sh/» ruled favorite in
the betting and there was little support
for anything else. Carmisa stuck it out
well, even after the favorite passed her.
and easily beat the balance for second
money. Lula G, which was coupled
with Alice Collins as the Schreiber en
try, just did last by a nose for show,
Rlrth barely failing to get up.
HEPEATS HER VICTORY
Monaco Maid, running right back to
her recent good race, repeated her vic
tory In the third race,. in which sto 1
was obtainable against her chances.
A.lways within striking distance of the
Naders, she took the track when Queen
Alamo and Royal Scot could carry their
speed no farther and won off by her-
P*lf. Wolfville, the favorite, gradu
ally worked his way up from last posi
tion on the back stretch and managed \u25a0
to just beat Queen Alamo for the place,
four lengths back of the winner. Der
dom. ' which Wolfville had eupplantsd
in favoritism, ran far below his mark,
the change from Jockey L*e«ds to
Jockey Carroll yielding anything but
satisfactory results. Carroll had the
horse in all sorts of trouble and put up
c very weak exhibition all round.
PILOTS SEVEXFLXL TO VICTORY
Jockey Kirschbaum was deserving of
considerable credit for the part he
played la th« victory scored by Harry
Stover's notorious quitter, Sevenfull, in
the fifth race. The boy judiciously
rated the mare the first part, instead of
E letting her open a big gap, as in the
aeries of races In which she stopped to
nothing in the stretch, and utilized h^r
speed at the stretch turn to advantage.
The consequence was that under ener- 1
getic hand riding she lasted to win by a
half length from the fast coming
Standover, whose improvement under
the change from apprentice rider Ful
ton to Jockey Borel was startling-, to
say the least. Standover was favorite
in a cheap field his preceding start and
could not g^t up a gallop. Yesterday
he probably would have won with an
other stride or two. Sycamore was
nosed out of the place and Kappa was
a bang up fourth. Herives and Pel
ham, which had disputed the early run
ning with Sevenfull, both dogged it
badly from the last turn to the wire
and finished far back.
"CI2VCH" PLAYERS ARE SHOCKED
Smiley Corbett was considered so
much of a certainty to win the closing
race of th/» day that he was held at
prohibitive odds in the betting and his
'defeat was a crushing blow to a host
• f "cinch" players. His defeat by
Aady RJakeley's Blue Heron was prob
ably entirely due to the failure of Jockey
Hayes to get him away from thfl post
to advantage. The horee broke lengths
behind tlie leaders and it was some
time before he could get to the front
In the stretch It looked as if he would
win anyway, but Blue Heron had morel
t-peed left than the favorHe and scored
< leverly. Jockey Hayes committed a
bad breach of the racing rules, by de
liberately cutting off Blue Heron in the
stretch and compelling Jockey Gilbert
to take up and go to the outside after
he had started to come through on the
rail. Blue Heron had been well backed
\by his st»t>l e across the
\board The favorite fcarely lasted to
beat Billy Pullman for placv* and - the
\atter was only a neck In advantage of
tt Avon, so that, all in all. it was a
Wy busy finish. Braggart and * Reo
lULsa both blew up after showing early

Gossip of the Track
Barqey Schreiber says that Herman
Brandt has not given him any intima
tion of his reputed intention of branch
ing out for himself. So far as the
winter campaigning of Jack Atkln is
concerned, he says that Brandt advised
him that it would be poor policy to
let up on the training of the horse
because of the unreliable condition of
his underpinning.
H. G. Bedwell scratched Pajaroita
yesterday because the horse collided
with the fence in his workout lor the
race, and Bedwell was" fearful that the
mishap might have hurt him, although
the horse gave no outward evidence of
injury.
William Cahill was almost stunned
by Smiley Corbett's poor showing. . He
had a bet of $1,000 down on the colt.
The way in which the colt performed
led him to doubt if the horse was any
thing but a mudder.
O. A. Bianchi's crack colt Lee Rose
was an absentee from the 2 year old
stake at Arcadia Saturday for the rea
son that he was. a bit off upon arrival
at the southern track. He is again
going along nicely, however.
Jockey Hayes was Bharply repri
manded by the Judges tor his foul
tactics with Smiley Corbett! It Is not
unlikely that should the horse have
won he would have been disqualified
for palpably impeding Blue Heron.
Starter Dwyer fined Jockeys Kirsch
baum and Sandy $25 each and sus
pended Jockey Lycurgus for three days
on account of the persistency with
which they broke up starts in the 2
year bid 'race.

do do d« RHEUMATISM
Rheumatism is caused by an excess of uric acid in the blood, brought
about by the accumulation in the system of refuse matter which the natural
avenues of bodily waste have failed to carry off. This waste or refuse matter
ferments and sours "and generates uric acid which is absorbed into the blood
and distributed to all parts of the body, and Rheumatism, with its torturing
pains and aches, inflammation and other disagreeable symptoms, gets pos-
session of the system. The ache 3 and pains may be relieved and the inflam-
mation temporarily reducedby the application of a good plaster; penetrating 1
liniment or sqpne other^simple ;h'ome remedy, but the disease can never be
curecl while the blood remains saturated, with the irritating, pain-producing'
uric acid poison. -The^cause should be driven from the blood before the 4

Keene Brings News From South
to Shorn Hildreth's Crack
Colt Is Not Lame
G. H. Keene, who arrived at Emery
ville, Sunday direct . from Arcadia,
brings the report that S. C. llildreth"3
$30,000 colt Uncle has been doinsr all
that was asked of him in his prepara
tion for the California derby at Emery
ville the coming Saturday, and that
Hildreth informed him shortly before
his departure from Arcadia that he
waa planning to start the crack son of
Star Shoot-The NJece In the derby her©
as well as at Santa-Anita.
Thi3 would seem - to- effectually dis
pose of an irresponsible rumor given
publication In certain quarters to the
effect that the $30,000 colt had gone
lame in his work at the southern trade
Keene says k that Uncle looks fit to
run for a kingdom, and he predicts
that the colt will only have to gallop to
win both of the coast derbies. Keene
also thinks that Hildreth will win the
Waterhouse cup with Montgomery,
which crack is being pointed for that
stake at the Arcadia track, as it was
intimated in Th« Call some time since
he would be.
Basket Ball Teams
in a Quandary
Question as to Which Five Will
Meet Oakland in the
Semifinals
The local basket ball teams are In a,
quandary to know- \u25a0which one is In a
position to meet Oakland In the semi-:,;
finals. Although Lick's protest was re-.;
ported to be sustained, Lowell's aca-.
demic delegate says that the team is ln<
perfect standing, and that there is n»n
foundation In the rumor that Lowell ,
will be unable to compete further.
' Lowell and Oakland will meet tthis-,s s -,
Saturday for the semifinals, while the
winner of that game will meet Santa^
Rosa for the championships provided
Lowell is in good standing, and if it is
not the whole schedule will be post
poned. ?
,The XVllmerdlng basket ball team de*
feated the Lick team recently by a
score of 29 to 19. Tlie Lick men did
not play their usual consistent game,
and when Felt, who played forward,
was disabled It completely disconcerted
the^men.
; The Olympic club Is going to offer a
high school cup in the cross country
run 'Washington's birthday. The cup
will b» presented to the winning school
team and not to an Individual.
The Lick team Intends to enter th»
Olympic meet/which is almost a cer
tainty of Its capturing the cup.
Noble and Jones of the Lowell high'
school basket ball team have been
"signed up" for Saturday's meet with
Oakland, so that there is no doubt of
their eligibility.
Rawlinson. the relay and 220 yard
swimmer. i 3 back at Lowell and will
compete this spring.
, Lick has received a challenge from
Santa Cruz and will meet the seaport
team in April.
The baseball schedule of the aca
demic league has been arranged as.

MAY SHIT OITT PLOGERS
It is an accepted fact that If the
an ti racetrack bills are defeated at, Al
bany during the present session of' the
legislature operations on-'the. New
York tracks by the socalled plungers
will be absolutely cut oft. IV Is said
that if certain sensational bettors at
tempt to do business on the old lines
they will "get the gate":. also. .tljat the
number of book makers will be limited
and that layers with shoestring bank
rolls will not be permitted to go on.
Furthermore, it Is reported that other
drastic reforms calculated to- curtail
speculation will be put into effect.
KE>*TVCKY RACI.VG PLAXS
It is probable that racing in Ken- \u25a0'
tucky this spring 1 will, be restricted to
53 days. The schedule most likely to
be adopted is Lexington. 10 days, be
ginning April 20; Loul3v!lle. . 19 days,
beginning May 2. and Latonia. 24 days,
beginning May 2 and ending June 20.
There Is little likelihood of the pas- .
sage of the antlracinar measures that
have been introduced in the Kentucky.,
legislature.*
