The death of a young man from the
effects of "a ~pummelling he received in a
prize-nght at the Golden Gate Athletic
club rooms in San Francisco, has devei-
oped n fearful row between the authori-
ties OF the state and city and the
of the club. The governor of California
has issued orders TO the attorney general
To see that steps are promptly taken ito
stop the ~disgraceful pugilistic exhibitions
which have so long disgraced California"
The chief of police OF San Francisco ma
announced his intention TO stop all glove
contests and sparring exhibitions In the
athletic clubrooms OF the city. On the
other hand the California and other attn
letic club rooms of the city are very uis-
SAINT. Many of the most wealthy aud in
fiuential men in the state are members OF
these clubs. Two thousand prominent
business men of San Francisco belong To
one athletic club. To down these men
the governor and other state authorities
will not find an easy task. Besides, San
Francisco is prt-cminently a sport
ing city. IL is doubtful IL any
state in the union annually con-
tributes rs much money for pugilistic en-
counters and the support OF fistic artists
as does the Golden State. The men who
endeavor To reverse this order Of things
will lose many nights sleep before they
accomplish their task. Yet after all IL Is
not improbable that when the first shock
caused to the v%irtuoIs prblic's nerves by
the death of young Mcbride, who was
killed in the fight at the Golden Gate club
on the 10Th of June, shall have worn ava
,,.HI. IA tl.. ..plli.'a inltunatinp will n1Sn
die out and the officers will forget to en-
force the sternest DEGREES Of the law
against '~'scicntific contests" IL will be
argued, and properly, that Mcbride, who
was killed in the fight, was not "A prize
fighter, that he lacked science and endur-
ancc, that he was killed by a chance
blow that the fight was an ordinary rough
and tumble row over n girl and did not
take place under the auspices OF The Col
den Gate club, though some of the MEM
hers OF that organization were witnesses
of the tragedy. After coming these facts
over for a few weeks the people of the
state will doubtless subside, and one of
the greatest prize fights in the history of
this continent-between Sullivan and
jackson will likely take place in San
Francisco, with the attorney general jost-
ling the chief of police In his struggle To
gcta good view of the contest. Such is the
STANDARDS opinion, at any rate.
Great interest was taken by Montana
turtles in the suburban contest at Sleeps
head on the 18th. And il Is safe toassume
that the horse hat won was the favorite
with the horscmen of this state. TIE
victor. Senator Hearst's pretty four-year-
old colt, has many close blood relatives in
Montana stables. In color Salvador, the
winner Of this race, is a chestnut. He was
bred by Mr.. Daniel Swigcrt AT the Elmen-
dorf stock farm in Kentucky, late in April,
1886, and at the sale of Mr.. Swigert's year
linps in 1857 he was purchased 10y Mr.. l..
T.. Simmons for MIR. j. Ii. Haggin for 81
800. He is "A son of the imported horse
Prince Charlie, he by Blair Athol, dam,
Eastern Prince by Surplice. Salvatore
dam was Salina by Lexington; his grand
dam, Lightsome, by imported Glencoe;
great grandam, Levity, by imported Trus-
tee. Prince Charlie was the fleet
est horse that has ever APP
peared i'm England. He won
the two thousand g%uincas, aud
many other races, but, owing To his being
broken winded. he could not run more
than a mile. Mr.. Swigert imported him,
but he died after his third year in Amer
lea. and was the sire of Scnorita Princess
Bowling, Protection, ETC., Salina was IA
"a great race-mare, and won many of the
rich stakes AT Jerome Park and Long
Branch. Thus Salvador, son of Prince
tii' III - "a kf'i y Wy IN
h~eritance.T This colt has wonderfulr record.
Salvador did not start AS "A ~two-ycar-old
until the race for the Junior Champion
Stakes at Monmouth park in August. lsss.
lie finished fourth, the race being won by
Proctor Knott. His second appearance
was September 3, at Sheepshead Bay, the
race being the Futurity Stakes, worth over

beating Salvador half "A length in 1:l5 10

won his first race, the Flatbush Stakes,

Ign, September -, Salvador won the
Maple stakes. October A, at Jerome
park, he won the Tuckalioe Stakes. His
last race of the yea was October 10, at
Jerome park, the Titan Stakes. Mr..
Haggin also started Fresno, and tried tn
win with HIM, but could not, and Garri-
son had 10 bring Salvador with a rush at
the finish, and beat Cynosurc by a head

During 1889 Salvador appeared in eight
races and met only u defeat. He did
not appear until u IL, AT Shecpshcad

won,with III pounds mclaughlin riding,
in l:iiSS. His next appearance was July
., at Shcepshead Bay, in the great Reali-
ation Stakes of $4,000. There was a
widespread interest in this race. Tenny
had shown himself So great a colt. and
Dwyer Bros. thought so well of their colt
LougstrcCi,t that they were deemed worthy
rivals for Salvador. Interest centered
at last in the three. Tcnny's
party declared Salvador could not
give him 13 pounds, and backed
Tenny for thousands; but MIR. Haggin's
money went on heavy, n the post bet
ting was: Ito Salvador. IL To 8 Tenny,

lead; but in the stretch Tcnny came with
