Yesterdays WHEEL RACE.
Time Lowered-A Spirited Contest
New Distribution Of Honors.

The Capital City Wheelmen's second
of its season series of road races was
given yesterday morning over the same
course used in August. The distance
was eight and three-fourths miles.
There was very large attendance,
both at start and finish, though the two
points were a mile apart.
The day could not have been more ia
vorable. James E. Little and Captain
Smith, starters, sent the men off in an
admirable manner, the first getting the
word $50 seconds in advance, and SO on
as shown below.
The best time made was by Noyes,
who rode the course in 26:04 SO, low
ering Hirsch's record of 26:1S. Hirscn
had a fall en- route or Noyes would
have had hotter work cut out for him,
as the two started together from the
scratch. 1t was splendid race through
out
The following is the record of the
race in minutes and seconds, points
made, places gained and seconds handi-
cap allowed. The first four finished in
bunch, SO close to score that it was
difficult to judge them. finer finish
has never been seen in a road race.
Speed on the basis of the best time was
very nearly 3 minutes, 9 2-3 seconds
per mile:

THE OWLS WERE VICTORIOUS
FIRST GAME HERE OF THE
AMATEUR LEAGUE.
The San Franciscans Were q Little
Too Much for the Local
Team.

Professionals have played many
worse games Of ball in Sacramento this
season than that put up by the Pom
mers Of this city and the Owls of San
Francisco at Snowflake Park yester-
day. The Pommers and the Owls be-
long to the new Amateur State League,
and the game was the first of the Sc
ries to be played in this city
Nine to four was what the Owls did
to the local lads, and While the score
was lop-sided, there have been others
Probably $50 very young persons. with
a respectable sprinkling of very wrink-
led enthusiasts, lined the bleachers and
watched the game, and they (particu-
larly the very young ones) took it hard
when the fates, combined with superior
weight and better playing, decided in
favor of the husky youngsters from
the land of fog and shrimps
The game was breezy from the start,
and in the first two innings neither
side scored In the third, however.
Fiege, who worked the ball for the
Owls, got bit weary and allowed the
Pommers to peg two tallies.
In their half of the fourth the Wis
itOrs drew their first blood, Ffege scor-
ing on Nelson's error For the locals
Gallagher drove the ball into the south
fence bleachers for two bases, bringing
in Kestler
In the fifth the Owls let out a link
and took three runs, virtually winning
the game. Gallagher was Just a little
bit unsteady and presented Quigley and
Sweezy with free transportation to the
initial. Both runners advanced a hole
on Fay's sacrifice. Knowles found
Gallagher for safe pop to the in
field, and Quigley crossed the plate,
While Spencer rolled one along second,
bringing in Sweezy and Knowles.
AT the beginning of the seventh in
ming the score stood to 3 in favor of
the visitors, but when the latter went
to the bat they went for Gallagher like
a bull for a red flag. Gallagher got
wild again when the heavy youngsters
began to locate his curves, and when
the trouble ended the Owls had added
four more buttons to their string. The
poor Pommers kept on drawing blanks.
Again in the eighth the Owls got an
other man across the plate.
In the ninth the sucking hoodlums
who lined the stands, and who ought
ers' skirts, together with the tough
young element whose voices were on
the change and a dozen people who
wore whiskers, invaded the diamond
and abused the boys from San Fran
cisco because they We're victorious
They held the ground until officer
Hardy appeared on the scene, when
they scattered like jackrabbits. The
best they could do was to bulldoze one
Pommer over the plate, and the score
was 8 to 4.
In a good game Of ball yesterday at
Fourteenth and r streets the Valley
DairyS DEBATED the Franklns by a
score Of to 4. The batteries were: For
the Dairys, Mcmahon and Henley, and
