tition, tandem paced, while Bozio's ride
was paced against time.
The trial yesterday was made over the
official course of the Associated Clubs
around the San Leandro triangle From
the start at Fitchburg and over the four
miles to San Leandro Bozio was paced by
Kroetz and Kingsley of the Olymp pic. Club.
They were there relieved by Theisen and
Blrdsall of the California Cycling Club,
who carried him to the turn at Haywards,
where he was picked up by Egan and
Hamann of the Imperial Cycling Club.
On this stretch Bozio's rear tire exploded
and he was forced to ride two miles in
this disabled condition until he got into
San Leandro again ana could change
mounts.
On the second round the crack Olympic
tripiet team-Loos, Cellier and Kragness
carried him along for a time, being re-
placed by Cook and Roach of the Impe-
rials. The pace of the latter team was not
fast enough and Bozio got away from
them, riding mile unpaced until he
came up to Kroetz aud Kingsley again,
and they ana the triplet team carried
him to the finish, the total time being so
minutes 16 seconds.
II was splendid ride and Rozio thinks
he could do still better with faster pacing
and barring accidents. Kraft will now
probably go against this record in order to
regain his lost honors.
The record trial was timed by President
A. 2. Swain of the Associated Clubs, c. s.
Myrick, captain Reliance Club Wheelmen,
and Herman d. Hadenfeldt, captain
Olympic Club WheeImen, and is there

TOLD THEIR TALE
AND SAILED AWAY
Peculiar Story Of the Sail
ors of the John G.
Potter.
Say They Saw a Woman and
Her Child Fall From Lom-
bard Wharf.
They Said Nothing to the Police
and Are Now Far Out
to Sea.

The water front fairly teemed with ex-
element yesterday and last evening over
the report that woman and child had
fallen from Lom bard-street wharf into the
bay and their bodies had been carried out
to sea by the ebbing tide.
Yesterday afternoon four sailors from
the ship John c. Potter told the story OF
the drowning to an interested crowd OF
listeners in Sambuck Brothers saloon.
which is located near the wharf. The
story was not at first credited by the list
eners, but later in the afternoon they
altered their opinion of the sailors ver-
acity when Chris Jacobson, watchman OF
the schooner Abbey, testified that shortly
after the hour the sailors claimed the
tragedy occurred be saw a boat cruising
around and under the wharf as though IN
search of body.
The person in the boat, according to
Jacobson, did not give up the search for
over an hour, and then it was owing 10
the fact that he was tired out holding the
boat against the SGrong tide, which was
running like millrace.
Last evening the John c. Potter was
towed out to sea by the tug Active, and is
now well on her way to a foreign port,
and in consequence the police will have 10
story from the Iips of the men who
claimed to have witnessed the accident.
One of the sailors from the ship had mis-
elbow dislocated IN winch on the ves-
sells trip out to the heads and he was
brought back by the tug and placed in the
Ferry Receiving Hospital. He did not
see the accident, he says, but heard the
sailors talking about it during the day
and evening prior to the ships departure.
The story of the tragedy as told by the
sailors in the saloon is that of a mother
who lost her life in a vain endeavor to
save that of her child. Mother and child,
according to the story, were walking along
the wharf, when the latter, a little girl of
tender years, ran from her mothers side
and peered over the edge of the wharf.
She became dizzy, reeled and was about
TO fall into the water when her mother
noticed her danger and hurried toward
her. She had just grasped ner child when
she tripped and both plunged headlong
into the bay. In an instant they disap-
peared under the wharf and a moment
later the waves closed over them and they
were seen no more. A boatman put out
from the wharf. but his efforts to render
them assistance or find their lifeless bodies
were without avail and he returned to his

sugar Beet Experiments.

Brookings, s. D,-Results of sugar
beet experiments an ] tests at the state
agricultural station at this point this
fall have been remarkable. After the
station had sent oct instructions as TO
the gathering of samples for analyza-
ton. G. w. McCoid Of Harding county,
whose previous samples had tested SO
high-22.9 per cent ~sugar-that the
station doubted the result and wanted
n second test. sent IN another lot OF
beets. On the same day ten ether
samples, from different parts Of the
state, were received, AMI an analysis
made. The readings showed that tacn
of these eleven samples averaged a
little better than Is per cent of sugar;
the highest were those grown by Me-
Cold, and they showed 2.40 per cent of
sugar, while another sample tested 22
per cent Repeated anu careful read
ings were made 10 test the of
these results, but without change. The
first test OF Mr.. McCoid's peets. as
made several weeks ago, showed 20 per
cent of sugar. This is probably the
highest percentage of sugar ever
known, and places South Dakota at
the head of sugar beet growing states.

BALLOTS FOR NJ
A Brisk. but Up-Hil Fight Being
Waged In south Dakota.

Howard, $. ID. - Whatever may be
thought of the experience or the pros.
pect of success of the woman suffrage
amendment pending in South Dakota,
It's supporters evidently pin their faith
to the ''early bird proverb. An az
gressive campaign is being opened
throughout the state.
Noted workers in the cause are mold
ing county conventions of the Nation
nj Woman Suffrage association, or
ganizing for the fray. One has just
been held in Lake county, at Madison,
and Il two days session in this city
hiss also just been closed. Mrs. Laura
Johns, Rev. Henrietta Moore and Mrs.
Gregg We're the speakers. They made
stirring appeals to organize and work
for the ballot extension. The attend-
ance was small and but little interest
"a manifested.
One of the speakers remarked ina
she was utterly discouraged 10y ap-
parent apathy of Dakota women. Inc
press of the state and the people gen
orally treat the matter most courteous
ly, but with an indulgent tolerance
that is most disheartening. Ii is evil
dent that those ladies who want the
ballot are not, as yet, very hopeful.
and those who do not favor the
amendment are not radical or bitter
in their opposition.
