Mccoy should put on at least twelve

THE YACHTSMEN

The second yacht race given by the
Terminal Island Yacht club took place
yesterday. A very large crowd of peo-
pie journeyed to the beach to see the
pretty and, in this section, sufficiently
unfamiliar sight. When the first whis-
tie blew at 1880 from the judges launch,
Catalina, the wharf was packed with
black mass of watching, perspiring hu-
manity.
On the Catalina were the officials Of
the race and a few privileged visitors.
The judges were 7. E. Gibbon, Col. T.
c. Marceau and Frank J. Thomas, and
C. r. Sumner was lord high everything
else. Fifteen minutes from the blowing
of the second whistle was allowed the
boats in which to cross the line. The
start was somewhat disappointing in
that the wind died down just as the
first boat, King Fisher, passed the line.
The sloop Nenie next slowly drifted
across and then J. Wiley led a fleet
consisting of San Pedro, Reckless, De-
fender, jr., and two or three more. Just
then the wind came up and the second
fleet, led by Flying Bird, started after
the leaders, which were slipping along
fast in the first leg Of the course. ]. Will
ley missed the first buoy, but made a
short tack and passed the stakeboat
with a good lead, Defender, jr., and San
Pedro following close, Wild Pigeon being
in the rear. On the second leg, the

SADDLE AND SULKY

Apropos of the recent attempt of the
Anti-Gambling league to suppress all
betting on race courses in England, and
the passing Of the act of parliament
which apparently upheld the effort, the
New York Spirit Of the Times publishes
some opinions on the decision of the
court of appeals reversing the act. All
|of the leading dailies of London declare
that the justices have correctly inter
preted the act of parliament and pro.
nounce the verdict in the now famous
case of Hawke VS.. Dunn as legal and
substantial victory" The Pail Mall
Gazette says: "If the law is as Lord
Justice Rigby rules, more shame to it.
A general law against betting would be
Ineligible, in the same sense as gen.
eral law against lying. So would one
against professional betting, even If the
distinction, which presumably would rest
on the presence or absence of betting
book, might break down in the case Of
la wholesale amateur or a professional
with a good memory and sublime con-
fidence in his clients, which was recipro-
Gated. But you couldn't do it. We abso-
lutely refuse to discuss whether betting
bacco or champagne, or, again, where
excess precisely begins. The plain fact
is that the public must bet and will bet.
and it is the crudest and most canting
folly to attack just that one form which
is open and above board" This, at least,
is a common sense view of the que ion,
and in different words echoes the mighty
legal opinion of the court of appeals.
The death of the great Domino on July
29th, of meningitis removes one OF the
most familiar names from the racing
calendar. He was the property of James
r. Keene of New York city, who had
placed him in the stud a Castleton farm,
near Lexington. Ky. Domino was foaled
in 1891, by Himyar, dam Mamie Gray by
Enquirer. He was purchased in 1892 by
Foxhall Keene for $4,000 and made his
first appearance in a sweepstakes in
May, 1898, winning out. His 2-year-old
career was an unbroken series of victor
lies and he won during that year NOR
money than had been won before or has
been won since by a 2-year-old in this
country. On the strength of his perform
arce the first time out he was picked to
win the Great American. His other vic
tories in 1898 were the Great Eclipse,
Great Trial, Hyde Park Stakes, Produce
Futurity, the Matron and dead heat
with Dobbins in a $40 900 ma tch. His win
nings amounted in 1898 to s1S0,S90. Dom
ino was black horse of splendid proper
tions with liberal markings Of white. On
receipt of the news of his death Mr..
James Keene sent a telegram, reading:
Bury him on Major Thomas farm and
place a slab over him with this inscrip
ton: Here lies the fastest runner and
as game and generous a horse as the
American turf has ever SEEM" In al!

been promised $1,000 by President Pull

adds that no one is making any effort
to buy up the claims of the team to the
prize money. The result of the series of

THE SILENT STEED

The Riverside wheelmen are coming
out strongly with race meets, which will
be held under the auspices of the l.. A. w.
Next Wednesday the club will hold
blue ribbon meet with five amateur
events, one Of them being a two-mile
handicap for colored riders. This race
day will be sort of preliminary to the
regular annual meet to be held on Sep
tember 9. In the morning Of that day
the thirteen mile road race will be run
over the Magnolia avenue course, and
in the afternoon program of ten events
will be run upon the excellent third mile
track of the club. Among the events is
five-mile team race between teams rep
resenting Elsinore, Perris and San ia
cinto, and the 25-mile team race for
the Southern California division cup, for
which teams are entered from Los Ange-
les, Riverside and Santa Ana. At pres
ent the cup is held by the Santa Ana
team, they having won it on much
questioned decision at Santa Monica on
July 5. All the riders who are at pres
ent suspended by the G. A. c. c. will
compete at these races under the l.. A.
w. rules.
The Associated Press dispatches of
nouncement of the consolidation Of the
League of American Wheelmen and the
American Amateur Athletic union. This
is Napoleonic move on the part of the
L. A. W., for by this union it plants
heavy blow on the solar plexus of the
C. A. C. c.. By the terms of the agree
ment it was decided that all cycling race
meets should be held under the l.. A.
w. rules. The l.. A. w. will not counte-
nance Sunday racing. Ergo, any anna
teur racing under the c. A. c. c. auspices
on a Sunday forfeits his amateur
status and is disbarred from further
competition. Surely it is time for the
c. A. c. c. to follow with bulletin form
ing an association with the Blacksmiths'
union, or some other helpful ally. 1t be-
gins to look as if the disgruntled men,

DANGEROUS AS DYNAMITE
A Hair Wash for Ladies That Ex-
plodes Without Provocation

For some time there has been in use in
the eastern cities French preparation
known as Service Antiseptique. 1t is a
marvellous preparation for dressing the
hair, cleansing it most thoroughly, and
having, as an additional recommended
ton, the property of drying within a
few minutes and leaving the hair wavy
and glossy. 1t gained great popularity
from the start, and was in use in evry
prominet hair-dressing establishment
in the city. Its use spread in London,
where it was equally well received. The
bottles in which it was packed were
marked "Inflammable; must not be used
near a light" This should have been
sufficient caution, but apparently it was
not.
In London few days ago Mrs. Sam
uelson, a woman of high connections.
was having her hair shampooed in
fashionable establishment in the West
End. The hair-dresser, Emile, French
man, had practically completed his work
and was engaged in wringng the ladys
tresses wheE a violent explosion occur
red. Mrs. Samuelsor was frightfully
burned, and died in great agony few
hours later.
Examipa tions and analysis by the
coroner esta blishes the fact that the
famous preparation Is nothing more nor
less than distilled product Of petro-
leum, deodorized by secret process
and highly perfumed. Practically 1t is
as dangerous as benzine or low grade
gasoline. Yet it was used by thousands
with but little caution. The death OF
Mrs. Reginald Fitzwilliams in Monte
Carlo, another lady of title, was occa-
stoned in exactly the same way. If the
stuff is to come into use in this country
restrictions as to its sale should be made
1t is as dangerous as dynamite.
In England the stuff was known as
paraffin. petrolere hair wash or rectified
spirits Of petroleum. But Il was the
