Tudor Chimes in the pools, but DiCkersOn

he reeled off three heats handily.

the pacing stake, and experienced no
trouble in anuing the prize.
The opening race, the 2:26 trot, was the
contest of the day. Derby Lass and Volo

outsider. After Tessie had been nipped at

LAWLOR AND TURNER DRAW.
Honors Even in Their Twenty Round
Go at Stockton.

STOCKTON. Aug. THE first fights
of the newly incorporated San Joaquin
Club, composed of sporting men of Stock
ton, took place tonight and Avon The
alter was crowded with interested specta-
tors. The first mill was between Young
Peter Jackson and Charlie Turner of
Stockton. once a clever pugilist but now
stale Jackson was the better man and
in the second round Turner was counted
out to save him from punishment
The event Of the evening was a 20-round
go between Jimmie Lawlor of San Fran
cisco and RUDE Turner of Stockton, both
Weighing 134 pounds. 1t was pretty
sparring match, though rather tame for
the spectators, who wanted knockout
blows. Both men fought cautiously Law
lor led the oftener, but Turner countered
best. In the twentieth round the fight was
very even and declared a draw, the purse
of $500 being divided. The decision of
Charley Oliver, the referee, was received
with satisfaction.

her foot to it to find what it was, and
discovered it was blood. Then she saw
very great number of bodies of beau

and hung by their long hair from hooks
round the walls. Horrified by this. she
hastily closed the door and locked IT.
But she found her foot was covered
with blood, and she went at once to the
stream that flowed by the castle for the
purpose of washing it. Yet. though she

through the many magnificent rooms
