VICTORY FOR THE LOCAL
 GOLF TEAM The Oaklanders Meet Their Waterloo. FIFTY UP IS THE SCORE PREsIDIo LINKS PROVE HARD
 FOR THE VISITORS. San Francisco Representatives Rolled Up an Overwhelming Score
 Against Their Guests From Over the Water.
FIFTY UP IS THE SCORE
PRESIDIo LINKS PROVE HARD
 FOR THE VISITORS.

The second half of the first game in the home and home match between the OaK land and San Francisco golf clubs playeu vesterday on the Presfdio links resulteu in an overwhelming victory for the san Francisco team. The match consisted or two rounds, ten holes, and on neither round did any of the Oakland team securs so much as tone up" against his oppo- nent. The first half of the game was played on Saturday, December ID, on the Oakland links, and even on their own course the Oaklanders were able to SCOTS only 1.-two up" against the visitors. It u.s therefore. to be expected that when the Oaklanders came to play on uh- familiar links they would be beaten oy the home team. But neither visitors nor hosts had expected so decisive victory. From start to finish the San Francisco men played a stronger game-stronger in every department, in driving, approaching and putting.
 The San Francisco team were 27 up on the first round and g up on the second round, making a grand total or oo up OH the days plav Deducting Oakland tWo' San Francisco is AS up on the whole game. And, inasmuch as it was agreed that the ultimate possession of the cup shall de- pend not on games won but on the aggre- gate scores, San Francisco now has so long a lead that it will be difficult task for the Oaklanders to equalize matters.
 The afternoon was bright and the light good. The recent rain has made the turt green and springy. so that the golfer can make two rounds without fatigue. Tn lne early part of the afternoon moderate northerly breeze blew across the links, but as the day wore on the atmosphere grew almost absolutely calm.
 The San Francisco representatives were exactly the same as on the Oakland links on December 10, but the Oakland team contained three new man, the places or ! Mckee, C. P Hubbard and c: B.

4 ROLL OF HONOR
 FOR BRAVE FIREMEN
ENCOURAGEMENT GIVEN TO
 DEEDS OF GALLANTRY.

At the meeting of the Fire Commission CTS on Friday communication was read from Chief Sullivan as one of the trus- tees of the Scannell medal fund. He re- ferred to the fact that no record was kept of those to whom the medals had been presented or those recommended for the medal. A fireman performed a heroic act and his name was mentioned for the medal, but afterward another fireE--n performed another act little more he roic than the first and he was presented with the medal and the other was forgot ten. He suggested that roll of honor be established on which the names of those receiving the medal and others performing heroic acts should be in scribed, as it would be a stimulant to duty and an encouragement to members of the department to deeds of gallantry The Commissioners adopted the Sugges- tion, and in future the roll of honor Will be established.

BALLOON RACE TO-DAY.
Two Experts Will Contest for the
 Championshi of the Coast.

The balloon race at Glen Park, Mis- sion Zoo, to-day should prove an inter esting as well as novel affair. The prin- cipals, Mile. Anita and Charles Conlon, are both confident of victory and excep- tionally clever aeronauts. A lively race for the championship of the Pacific Coast will no doubt be the result. Mile. Anita is better known through the in terior of the State, where she has made several balloon ascensions, but Conlon, who claims to be the champion aero naut of the coast. is we'll known in this city. having made many ascensions at Glen Park.
 During the afternoon there will be concert and Madame Schell will give an exhibition with her trained lions.

Thorpe, on Napamax, took the front position before the stand was reached first time, and never appearing Tn difficulties, the daughter of Maxim won in easy fashion from the Baldwin repre- sentative, San Venado.

In the run to the wire it was easy for Morinel, which won in gallop. Alter the race it was reported that the Don had split one of his hoofs, which ac- counted for his inglorious defeat The winner, excellently ridden by Spencer, was to in the betting.
 In the opening six furlong run for 2 year-olds, the crowd showed marked preference for Casdale, with Martin up, sending him to the post favorite over Horton. The latter colt got up to the favorite at the head of the stretch, and both outfooting and outgaining him, won easily at the hnlSh. The olheIs "eie beaten off.

Elidad and Prince Blazes came in for considerable support. especially the latter.

GRANGER AND MAJOR TAKING THE LAST JUMP TOGETHER.

The favorite downed Elidad a head for the place. Gray's ride was very pretty piece of saddle work.
 For the mile and a furlong hurdle handicap. the Corrigan entries, Bedding ton and Terrier coupled held sway in the betting. Terrier proved poor hurdler and Reddington was left at the post. Granger, ' to l shot, ridden by Kerrin, was prominent the entire distance, finally winning with something to spare from Major s, an outsider.
 The final five-furlong scramble for P year -olds was only a scamper for links. The lilly was l to 3 chance and won with ridiculous ease from Key Hooker.

A PECULIAR REMEDY.
Something About the New Discovery for
Curing Dyspepsia.

The Rev. F. 1. Bell, a highly es-
teemed minister residing in Weedsport,
Cayuga county, y. Y, in a recent
letter writes as follows: There has
never been arything that I have taken
that has relieved the dyspepsia from
which l have suffered for ten years
except the new remedy called Stuart s
Dyspepsia Tablets. Since taking them
have had no distress at all after eat
ing, and again after long years can
sleep well. Rev. F. Bell Weedsport,
y. l., formerly Idaia Colo"
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is re-
markable remedy, not only because it
is a certain cure for all forms of in
digestion, but because it seems TO act
as thoroughly in old chronic cases of
dyspepsia, as well as in mild attacks
Of indigestion or biliousness. A per-
son has dyspepsia simply because the
stomach is oyerworked, all it wants
is 4 harmless, vegetable remedy to di-
gest the food and thus give it the
much needed rest.
This is the secret of the success of
this peculiar remedy. No matter
how weak or how much disordered
the digestion NAV be. Stuart's Dvs-
pepsia Tablets will digest the food
whether the stomach works or not.
New life and energy is given not only
to the stomach. but to every organ
and nerve in the body A trial of this
splendid medicine will convince the
most skePtical that dyspepsia and all
stomach troubles can be cured. The
tablets are prepared by the +. a. Stuart
company. of Marshall, Mich, but so
popular has the remedy become that
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can now
be obtained at any drug store at 30
cents per package. Send for book on
