IS THE SUNDAY OREGOKIAX, PORTLAND, JTJJLX vu, 1W3. LATEST NEWS IN THE ATHLETIC FIELD Bookmakers Are Hard Hit at Irvington Seattle Keeps v Up Its Winning Gait E HE G Oregonian- Handicap Is the Feature and Arestellator , Wins Easily. JUDGE BEATS EPICURE Crowd Leaves the Track in Happy Mood, as It Hit tho Bookies Hard In tho Betting Yesterday. .Satisfactory from every standpoint was the race programme offered yesterday afternoon, by the Multnomah Fair Asso-. elation. The feature of the day's card, was The Oregonian handicap, valued at 5600 to the winner. When the three horses that had accepted the welgths faced the starter there was an added starter In April's Pride, but the bid had no business in that kind of company. Santee was another starter that might as well have been elsewhere. The race was won by. Arestellator. who picked up an Impost of 125, and, conceding lumps of weight to thts other starters, ran a thor oughly good and game race. Little Leaguo waited until they rounded the last bend, then he let out a link or two and simply ran over the pacemaker Rain CJoud and won pulled. The MacRac Handicap. As a side light to the race, thire was the MacRao handicap at a mile, with a nicely balancad field of eight starters. Thero was a great hurrah about Epicure winning thh race and because of this Judge did not attract any particular at-, tention in tho speculation. The wise and unwise went Epicure, until the odds be came prohibitive, then they began trying to pick the second choice. Follow Mer Gloomy Gus and Funny Side and even Blissful found favor with the speculators. It was Judce almost all the way, how ever. Ivy Powell cave the big black son of Athellng a perfect ride. He seemed a bit sluggish at the cost, but once they were under way he showed when he reached the half-mile post that he had the foot of the party. After opening up a gap. all PowclUhad to do was to sit still and let the rest of the field try to catch him. He won nulled up. Judge right now Is a good hnr. nd Tobe Ramsey certainlv sent him to the post fit for the race of his life. Had Powell been forced to call upon his mount at the end he micht have lowered the track record. 'which was held by Fossil. At that the mile was done in 1:40. "Epicure ran nice race and was running like a wild horse all of the' last part. Gloomy Gub ' had a rouch journey, and it spoiled his chances. St. Geonre. Jr.. was in a pocket all the way, and the boy could .not And an opening at .any uuie. Big Crowd at Track. The day- was an ideal one for racing. and a large Saturday crowd numbering over 6000 was on hand to enjoy the sport. The winners were easily located, and the crowd left the track In a happy frame of Tnlnd, and with a bundle of tho bookies money tucked awav for todays outings, Added to the splendid features of the day was the exceDtlonallv fine starting of Starter Fred Mulholland. In the seven fields that faced th harrier he had somo very bad actors, but he sent each field away on tip-toes. The'start in the mile race was as nrettv as ever will be seen on any track. When Mr. Mulholland called with his sham, oenetrating voice. "Come on box's!" verv horse was off flying. The start of this race was no different than the rest, for the slowest breaker was off ylth the fastest. Second Choices Heavily Played. Favorites and heavily-played second choices ruled the day. Isabeau won the first race. Sullivan put it on Herbert when It came to the finish, and this won for Isabeau. Honest Boy was hon est to those who shoot at the stars and play long-shots. The pencllers thought so little of him that they posted 525 to 51 against his chances, and he came within half a length ot getting the money. Smiler became mixed in the jam at the start and was pinched out of it. He closed stoutly and would have been closer up with better racing rk. Canton ran a fair race and Yolo Girl, who was heavily played, ran as if she was not ready. She was far from beinsr up to her race. Birdie P., with a feather up. won the third race. Mctlakatla was the false favorite In this race, and from 8 to she was played down to 6 to 5. Birdie P.. because of the clever race she won last Monday, was the hottest kind of a second choice, and she proved to the nubile that she was the goods, forhe won off by herself by five lengths. Clark kept her always within striking dis tance, and when the fun for the wire came he let her down, and she ran over the leaders. Happy Chappy had plenty of EDeed. but was tiring the last part Mctlakatla and Chappy raced head and head from the paddock home and Gra ham just did manage to land Chappy homo in front by a nose for the place money. Heavily-Played Favorite. Miss Hunter was a heavily-played favorite, and those who were "on" gave the pencllers a Jolt that they will not forget for some days. Constanza was backed from 10 to 1 down to 4 to and even,' one in the ring seemed to be betting on Miss Hunter to win and Constanza for place and show. Miss Hunter ran away from her field dur ins: the first part, but Minder, on Con stanza, was hot on her trail all the way, and at the end Miss Hunter had to be hard-ridden to stall off the game rush that Constanza made in the last ICth, under a vigorous ride by Minder. Skirmish ran a poor race and the rest showed nothing. The wise ones were abroad when th fifth race came up. Anlrad at evens carried a bundle of money, and she re warded everybody by winning. She had a brilliant burst of early speed. and by the time they had raced three fourths she was in front by four lengths. At the end T. Clark, who, by the way, earned two brackets and was once second, had to ride the mare out in order to stall off the desperate bid "made by Calculate, who stuck it out gamely all the way. Capable was slow to begin, but was making up ground all the last part. Annie .Brule was there all the time. The live wife that was let loose in the last race became grounded. Eleven Bells was -passed around, as the real "bands', but they overlooked Crlgll, who grounded the live wire, tiptoed her fteML from barrier to wire, and wo almost t -.she pleased. Mountebank cam A IR1 1 through the stretch "with the speed of tin overland express, and for a time It looked as if ho would catch Crlgll. but the best he could do was to beat Eleven Bella for the place by a neck. The Pride ran a sulky race and dogged It badly. Entries for Monday. Monday's entries follow: Fim rax Six furlonc. tetlinr. 'for -year-old una upward: nd. Hore. 1Vt.l InC Hore. wt. fG13.

The team played better at thn wickets after the change. Henderson and Warren opened for Port land. The former wan neatly caught by Davis for 9.

HAD VERY POOR SECONDS Xelll Was Given the Decision Against Him, but pie Young Fellow Is Believed to Be the Better Man. SAX FRANCISCO. July .-(Special.) Every fight "fan" who denied himself tb trip to Colma last night is kicking himself today for having missed the best ring con test that has been seen in this country for many months. The public did not 6eem to warm up to a contest In which a cham pion was a 10-to-4 favorite over a boy who was making his first professional ap pearance. Those who were out, howeyr. saw the fight of their lives, and witnessed an exhibition by the game little bantams that will long be remembered In puclll tlc circles. Today the name of Tenny Is on every lift, and by his exhibition of J ftkill and gameness in 23 rounds of hard fighting he has made thousands ot friends who will not fall to avail themselves of an opportunity to see a good battle when he once more goes Into the rinr. Although both boys were at the re quired weight, Nelll looked the bigger, hut any doubt of the ability of Tenny to hold his own was dispelled In the very first round. When they stepped to the center of the ring, after the usual chal lenges and photograph fiends had been disposed of, Tenny showed some slight Klgns of stage fright, but he waded In like a gamecock and landed a straight left to Nelll's fac and got away without a return. There was then a fierce ex change of rights and lefts, and when the gong sounded for time all hands were cheering wildly, and it was Tenny's round. Tenny Showing Up. When they toed the scratch In the sec ond round Xelll knew that' he had a hard fight on his hands, and had become a bit careful. They first came to a clinch with out any damage being done. Xelll then landed his terrible left on the neck, but missed the second attempt. Tenny then rushed Xelll into the ropes without doing much damage, and It was a mlx-up until the end of the round, with honors again in Tenny's favor. For the first few rounds it was all Tenny. He made Nelll look like an ama teur, and had him bleeding at the nose and mouth. Even until the number of rounds had more than half been fought. It looked like Tenny would certainly be champion, but In the later rounds he tired, and Xelll did all the forclny. Had Selling. Two-year- 8703 FIFTH RACE year-olds and Index. Horse.

He waded right In then, and it lookea like curtains for a moment, but Tenny rallied and was mixing It up at the gong. In the 12th round Tenny' had again ral lied, and was doing most of the fighting, Xelll seemingly having lost his speed. In .the 14th Xelll again had Tenny groggy and nearly out. The new boy then showed of what game stuff he was made, and stuck to It like a bulldog. Had Tenny been seconded by any one that knew the game as a good fighter ought to know it, there would In all probability have been a new champion heralded to the world to day. Instead of good fight seconds, he had a flock of rubbers In his corner. They could rub and awing towels, and that was all they could do. How different It might have been had the irrepressible Mr. Kelly been shifted from XeiU's corner to that of Tenny! Had the amateur been sent m at the fight to use both hands und follow every blow, the fight would never have gone the long route It did. As It was, he was tired but stilt game as a pebble to ward the-last, and took a bunch of terri ble left labs and swings that wuld have put many good boys out of business. In the last round Tenny's seconds real ized that the only chance their man had was to take a chance and knock Xelll out. He went in and fought like a little demon and had Xelll on Queer street when the gong sounded. Referee Roche gave the decision to Xelll and was hissed by a portion of the crowd. SETTLE "WITHOUT FINAL HEAT "Winners In Detroit Races of Yester day Decided. DETROIT. July 29. Rain this afternoon prevented the horsemen at the Grosse Point track from finishing the three races that were unfinished yesterday afternoon. when rain began falling. It was therefore decided to settle the 26 pace and 2:10 trot according to the standing of the horses after the second heat yesterday, and to trot the third and final heat of the Merchants' and Manufacturers' Con solation Monday afternoon at Cleve land. O. In the 2:05 pace Baron G rattan was ac corded the race, with Wlnfleld Stratton second. Riley .B. third and Hazel Patch fourth. Androsls finished fourth and third yesterday, and was also a money winner. In the 2U0 trot Zephyr was given the race. Second money was awarded to Nor man B. Brown; Wilter was given third money. It is possible that the owners of the three horses left In the Merchants' and Manufacturers Consolation may get together and agree to a division of the money, to obviate the necessity for trot- ting a third peat .Monday. NELSON'S BAD LUCK Repeated Accidents in Race With Portland. SEVERAL FOULS IN CONTEST Like True Sportsmen, However, the British Columbians, In Spite of Their Mishaps, Cheer Portland, the "Winner. After repeated fouls on the part of the Nelson crew, of Xclson. B. C, and of the Portland crew, after the Nelson boat had been taken out of the water once after the race had begun, to fix a broken fin, and after the Britishers caught a crab on the return stretch be cause of a long oar In the hands of No. 3, the visitors threw up the race, rowed to the clubhouse and let Portland have the race. The British crew showed its sportsmanship, though, in rowing to the. finishing buoy long after Portland had crossed the line. What little rac ing was done by the competing crews was of a good order, but neither seem ed to know the course well enough to prevent collisions. Two hundred yards from the starting buoy. Nelson ran from the course and fouled the Port land oarsmen. Within a quarter of a mile of the turning buoy Portland foul ed Xelson. The first foul was over looked. Before covering the first stretch it was seen that the Nelson scull waa going wrong through no fault ot the crew, The boat was recalled by the Judge3 and landed for repairs. The fin was out of perpendicular and an effort was made to repair it. A second start was made from the foul-line. Nelson caught the water first, and before the buoy was reached led by half a length. Portland hit up the stroke to 34, and rapidly overhauled the leaders'. But before the turn Port land committed the second fouL Both crew3 extricated themselves and over looked the matter. Both crews made the turn In good shape, Nelson In the lead. Gradually Overhauls Xelson. Portland started on the home-stretch In fine form, gradually overhauling Nelson. The race promised a fighting finish. Both crews were hitting it up at the rate of 33 and were going bow and bow. when Nelson's No. 3 crabbed and spoiled the race. The visitors had the worst of it at all points. A broken oar was substituted for one of longer length and one different from that which No. 3 had used. Nelson; s -boat was borrowed from the Portland Row ing Club. A long fin was replaced by a shorter one, which either caught In the weeds In Guild's Lake or struck something which threw It out of per pendicular. Portland finished three-fifths of a mile In front of the British crew. Af ter regaining position. Nelson rowed to the finishing buoy. It was an unfor tunate ending of what would have been a great fight. The crews were: Portland Rowing CIuIj Preston Smith, bow; Charles Duncan, No. 2; T. Zimmerman. No. 3; Paul Smid. stroke. Nelson Club, ot Victoria, B. C H. Bishop, bow: R. Sharp. No. 2; A. Bishop, No. 3: F. Nott. stroke. Best Race of the Day. The best race of the day for the shells was that between the senior doubles, of the Portland Rowing Club, over a l-mlle course, or what Is sup posed to be that distance. If the course has been measured exactly, a world's record would have been broken by three minutes. R. Lamberson, bow, and N. M. Montgomery, stroke, beat Gloss, stroke, and Smid, bow. The time was Kiven as 6:25 3-5. It was an im possible record from the form In which the crew rowed, and It Is taken that the course was not laid off properly. During the first stretch the race was an excItlnK- one, but Gloss and Smid made a poor turn, and the victors led all the way to the finish, finishing eas ily with five lengths to spare. In the one-half mile double canoe race Mackle and Bond won out by their cleverness in making the turn at the buoy. Frohman and R. Lamberson took the lead and held it during the first quarter, but they tried a fancy turn which failed, and were beaten easily by three lengths. Gloss and Kirkley. who were among the also-rans, finished last Time 5:03 4-5. Frohman and Lamberson turned the tables on the victors ot the first canoe event In the quarter-mile straight away, and won by a length. Gloss and Kirkley again finished last Time 2:29 4-5. If the quarter-mile has been meas ured correctly, Roy Kirkley has estab lished a Northwest record for that distance In single canoe events. He de feated Bond by 30 yards and finished in 6:4 0, four seconds quicker than the former Northwest record. The comical event of the day wa3 the tilting race, which was won by Glossi after Mackle had dumped Froh man. Armed with paddle-poles, the contestants fought a battle royal, shov ing each other Into the water from canoes. The upset race was postponed until some time next week. Six Seconds Above the' Record. CAPE MAY, X. J.. July 29. Walter Christie failed to break the world's .auto mobile record for one mile on the beach here today. He made three trials, his best time being made on the- third attempt, when he sent his 120-horsepower machine over the mile course in 3S2-5 seconds, nearly six seconds above the record.
