The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-05-10

as by the social element of the community,
has brought about combination that can
not fail to succeed. Aside from the heavy
sale of tickets number of checks
have been handed in for the benefit
of the hospital fund. So with the princely
sum which it is expected will be realized
by the gate money and booth sales to-mor-
row the institution will be able to get well
on its feet again.
The entries for all the different COMPETE
tive events closed Wednesday night, though
as far as the decorated carriage parade is
concerned all corners are welcome, even at
the last moment, the only conditions being
that only those regularly entered are eligi-
BILE for the prizes. The horseraces have
filled in manner that ensures more en-
tertainment than a professional meet could
furnish, for in the running races gentlemen
jockeys alone are to try conclusions, and
the local interest will therefore be stimu-
lated.
The cyclists are already beginning to
gather on the scene, and the following
clubs will be represented in the tourna-
ment to be held tomorrow afternoon !:
Bay City Wheelmen, Acme Wheelmen,
California Cycling Club, College City Cy-
Cycling Club, Olympic Wheelmen, Press
Cycling Club, Reliance Wheelmen, San
Jose Road Club and the Y. M. G.. A.
All the races will be given according to
the programme announced for Mayday
and the outlook is that the only absentee
will be Osen, in the scratch mile race, in
which he is now prohibited from riding
because of his suspension by the Wheel
mems League for violating the rules re
garding an event in Arizona. The cyclists
are more pleased with the conditions than
they were Mayday, for the track is in
splendid shape for fast time.
All the estimates as regards the decor
ated-carriage parade have been left far be-
hind. The closing hours returned rush
