8 THE CALL'S RACING PAGE A. B. Spreckels' Two Year Old Filly Carmisa Lowers American Track Mark for Three and a Half Furlongs J. R. Jeffery The American record for 3*A fur longs went a-p!lmmering when the 2 year old filly Carmisa, bred and owned by A. B. Spreckels, master of Napa Ftock farm, ran the distance in 40 2-5 F«?conds in winning the third race at th* Emeryville track yesterday. The record which Carmisa broke was made by Judge Thomas when he ran B*4 fur longrs as a 7 year old at Butte, Monti, July 14, ISO 2. in 40% seconds. The Emeryville track record for the dip lance was 41 1-4, held jointly by Sir Wilfred and Nappa. Carmlpa is a racy looking and aris tocratically bred filly by the English utallion Solitaire 11, out of Oratossa, nnd may be one of the coming stars of the turf. In her previous starts she had shown speed, but yesterday brought her maiden victory. In her race of yes terday she met with no serioua oppo sition, a bad mixup at the start elimi | rating the most promising contenders. : "Work Box, the favorite, bolted to the 1 outside when the barrier went up, and \u25a0 ruined the chances of Ornate and Haz- Sflet. the other two choices, as .well as his- own, by coming into such violent contact with them that all three were thrown clear off their stride and knocked back. Carmisa got off flying, opened a big gap at once and con tinued to leave her field behind 'with every stride. At the wire, when her record breaking feat had been accom plished, she \u25a0was six lengths in front of Right Easy, the second horse, which outgamed Lula G by a nose .for the place. It was Right Easy's first start and the colt performed like a good • tie. The horses that figured in the mixup ftt the start closed up considerable of the lost ground, but were so hope lessly out of it that neither of the trio grot near the money. The horses ran fairly well to form during the afternoon, and favorites, •which had been making a bad show ing of late, captured half the card. WIXS IX FAST TIME Sugarmaid. the Fleur de Lls stable's fleet daughter of Salvado-Saccharoid, was compelled to run 5% furlongs in the phenomenally fast time of 1:06 to win the best race of the day, which had last position on the program. Mose Goldblatt's Far.tastic forced her to the hardest kind of a drive and she scored by only a scant head. For a firet out Fantastic's performance was certainly a meritorious effort, and had Cricket Kelly kept her a bit closer up to Sugar maid's fast early pace, she probably would have won, as she finished with a brilliant burst of speed that would hax'e encompassed the favorite's defeat ln another stride or two.

T. H. Ryan's Reoleasa beat 14 other 3 year old maidens in the five furlong sprint, which inaugurated the sport. Opening at 3 to 1, she was backed down to about 2 at post time, her owner sending a big commission into the ring. I Except for the brief Interval that It ! took to work her way to the front i from none too advantageous a position at the break, she showed her field the way and, although Inclined to stop a bit at the end, she lasted. to win by the greater part of a length. Jockey Gilbert brought Expectant from a long way back to nip Miss Charity, the run ner up, for place in the last stride. Mrs. Neugent, the second choice, lost I all chance by getting oft absolutely jlast, and Orchota, backed for a sup posed good thing, showed absolutely no speed at any stage of the contest. ZICK ABR.VMS A SURPRISE , The neglected Zlck Abrams, Jimmy Butler up, was the surprise that tha second race yielded. The horse was passed up' by the talent because he had been stopping in sprints and his form held out no promise of ability Ito negotiate a route. Butler lay along j with him. behind Alta Spa's pace and sent him on to victory when that horse backed up In the stretch. Metlakatla came with her customary stoutness at \ the end and barely failed to get up. Had she not been in close quarters in the stretch she probably would have won. George Kilborn, a well played horse, finished a bang up third. Gannet, the favorite, lost all chance in a bump ing, match at the first turn. Confederate, the favorite of the fifth, which was at a mile and a half, led his field for more than a mile before his dicky underpinning b^gan to trou ble him. Then he retired, leaving Kogo and Arcourt, which "had' been in for ward contention throughout, to fight It out. Kogo was better fitted to go the route and won pretty much as Jockey Heatherton pleased.

"Western had the speed to get- to the ; front'on '\u25a0" the back , stretch, but was not ready/ to go the route, and yGargantuna 'and Pleiad both passed him -in the final furlong. Standover, the second choice, j was elim-, mated from .contention by a stumble at the start, which unseated Jockey Borel. This boy showed a great deal of skill by nimbly regaining his seat when it looked as if he was oertain to be thrown. By ; the-: time, he' was able to straighten his , mount up the field were lengths away.V -\u25a0.-'; *»• : — : '\u25a0 — — — "J"' Gossip of the Track \ The report is again in circulation thatS. C. Hildreth's crack colt Uncle has sons wrong in his training, at Ar cadia. Sam McCrea,"' the \u25a0\u25a0 well \u25a0' known local docker, received a letter yester day from a work watcher at Santa Anita conveying information to that ef fect. When G. H. Keene left Arcadia a week ago the, colt was going along nicely ln his work, so whatever has be fallen him must have happened within a. few days. ; . . Alex Rosen, a Russian jockey, put in an appearance at Emeryville yesterday. The boy is 14 years of age, strips at about 110 pounds in his present con dition, and will accept mounts- here if the opportunity offers. He came ) to America, after four years of service in the saddle in Russia, principally, to im prove his knowledge of the English language. Jack Keene," who trained with signal success in , Russia several seasons ago, has offered to give the boy a chance galloping horses, and the lad probably will enter his employ. Jockey Gilbert is certainly a game lad. He refused to cancel his riding engagements for yesterday, despite his accident of the day before, which left him with a very badly ; swollen knee. Jockey Davis, who figured in the "same accident, probably will be in condition to resume riding today. Jockey Butwell had been engaged to ride Fireball yesterday, . but - Jockey Hayes was substituted by order of Judge Hopper. Dr. Rowell and Jockey Miller will return from Arcadia tomorrow to re main until the Williams stable leaves for the east a couple of months hence. F. "W. Doss bet $1,000 on his colt "Work Box, whose chances were ruined by bolting when the barrier went up. Jockey Preston is expected from Ar cadia today to ride Creston in the Derby. Jockey F. JCelly was fined $25 for breaking up starts with Mornond in the opening 1 - race. The Thornton stake, four miles," has been reopened . for additional entries, which will be received up , to .Friday next. Mamie Algol, which was beaten by a nose in each of the four mile stakes at Emeryville last spring, is carded : to start in the four mile stake at Arcadia today. + — ! _* Workouts Meelick— Mile in 1:46^; breezing.

Up to a latf hour yesterday afternoon he had nor decided as to who would have the mount. Jockey Keogh is among the possibilities. His apprentice-rider, A. Harris, has not had the experience necessary for such an important con test. Mo3e Goldblatt is wonderfully conn dent, that his mare Keep Moving will make a much better showing today than in any of her previous starts here. He professes to really believe that his mare will win. Import will have a following, but H Is generally recognized that he is up against a very different sort of gam* today than in the races in which h* has been beating horses of moderate caliber with light weight up. Cloyne and Saint Modan will be the outsiders* in the betting and neither can be given much of a chance on what they have. shown to date. The race will be worth about $5,000 to the winner, JI.OOO to the second horse and $500 to the third.

WOMAN'S BREAST AND MAN'S FACE- Mpst Common Places for Cancer The papers made mention a short time ago of people cured of cancers without knife or pain by Dr. and Mr 3. Dr. Chamley & Co.

They first obtained > the Doctors* free book.- which proves that any lump In woman's breast is cancer. It led to, as they say, the greatest blessing of . their lives. All the leading newspapers and medical journals of the world hare noted their success and wonderful cures. They charge nothing until cured -and offer $1,000 if they fail.
