Jeffries' Latest Stunt.

The latest thing from the pugilistic
world of any magnitude. is the an
nouncement that Jim Jeffries is to take
you? wouldn't that fade you to whis-
per? That means that Gus Rhulin is go
ing to get the go by, for while at least
and it means more. Behind it all can be
seen the Discrimination Of the champion
to fight the Akron Giant" No because
he is afraid. but because there does not
appear to be enough in the game. Prize
fighting is not what it used to be and
jeff knows it. Still he wants all there
is in it. and naturally enough, too, but
there Is not enough in it.
JEFF has been screeching about Rubin,
for long time-since March in fact, and
his contention has been all along that
Rubin was not anxious for a fight Now
that Gus Is on his way to the coast and
the matter is nearing that stage where it
could be definitely settled, jeff an
nounces that he wants to fight Sharkey
first. That would cause the wise ones
to figure that the $4,000 purse supposed
to have been offered by San Francisco
club, was more hot air than anything
else. There may have been a purse, but
it is doubtful if it was more than half
as large as reported. At all events jeff
will now have chance to blow himself
off in the newspapers for some time to
come and then call it off with Sharkey if
he so desires, In the end There are
tricks in all trades.

original Shamrock. There was some
doubt at first. but when 1t came to the
supreme test and the new yacht beat the
old production handily, it showed that
Sir Thomas Upton had been holding
something up his sleeve and wanted to
create the impression that the present
challenger would not prove as formidable
a contestant against the Constitution. as
the old Shamrock did against the Col
umbia. He had hoped to make the
Americans think they had a cinch and
thus. because of er-confidence, which
would naturally be consequent, grow
careless.
But now the cat is out of the bag and
while the Americans have a line on Lip
ton he has no definite knowledge regard
ing the constitution. 1t may be after all
that the Constitution is as much the SUI
perior of the Columbia, as the old Sham
rock is the inferior of the new and the
defeat of the new defender may mean
nothing more than a little Yankee
diplomacy. Did anyone ever accuse a
Yankee of being asleep and not knowing

Jockey club has announced it's list of
stakes and handicaps for the coming race
meeting
There are % stakes, aggregating $50, 900
in value. The iscrease in the number of
stakes is due to the fact that the new

ifornia Derby for $4,000. the California
Oaks for $500, the Waterhouse handicap
of 500, at two miles: the Bell stake for
2-year-olds, for $4,000 and the Adam An

The last race, the ten mile open, pro-

greatest and second greatest number Of
laps, was the most exciting of the night.

throughout. The greatest interest and
the excitement came in the last mile, at
ter the fourth lap. when Staver cut out
from the bunch and attempted to make
runaway race of it. He was quickly
overhauled by Burris. who in turn was
caught by Bell. Then 1t was a sprint
for the final three laps and the way the
riders hummed around the steep inclines
brought the spectators to their feet,
cheering like mad. 1t was wonderful
race and we'll deserved the applause
which greeted it. Bell was the winner,
with Burris. second; Staver, third and
Niederhofer. fourth. May won the first
lap money with 2 laps to his credit, and
Sharman got second lap money with 80
laps to his credit.
Thevaudeville attractions were inter-

after Baisden mounted the platform, his

continued and finished his turn under
difficult circumstances. Baisden is GER
tainly an unusual trick rider.

Will Luton Get the CupP

Now that Sir Thomas Upton and his
challenger, Shamrock H., are on their
way to the United States, interest in the
coming races for the Americas cup Is on
the increase. The ll-absorbing question
is, will Upton capture the coveted cup
or will the Americans again demonstrate
that they are better yacht builders than
their English cousins? That of course
remains to be seen and no matter which
way the races go it is certain that they
will be the most closely contested yet seen
in American waters, for the trophy so
long held here and just as Aong coveted
by the British.
It would be a difficult matter to spec
ulate with any degree of accuracy on
what the outcome of the races will be.
The Constitution has not yet demon
strated that she is far and away, a better
yacht than the Columbia and yet there
may be as much method in the mad
ness Of her owners and builders. as there
was in the foxy play of the British, in
allowing the new Shamrock to be beaten
by the old challenger.
There is no question now that the pres
ent challenger is better boat than the

Finish Of Artie Bell in Ten

From many view points, the card at
the saucer last night was the best pre-
scented for some time. The races were
exciting and furnished surprises and the
vaudeville attractions We're excellent
On the whole the night was about as
enjoyable as one could wish for.
The chief surprise of the night was
May. In the final OF the mile handicap,
professional, he slipped through the
bunch and won q pretty race that had
been conceded to either Bell, Burris or
Staver. While there was nothing to
show positively that the race was
jobbed, it looked as though Staver and
Burris had planned to keep Bell out of
first or second money. But they reck-
oned without their host and while they
were jockeying, for a chance at Bell,
May. who had not been considered a
contender. slipped in on the pole, fifty
yards from the tape and won by a
wheels length. The plucky little rider
was roundly cheered for his clever ride
and exhibition of good head work. Sta
Yer was second. Burris third, and Bell
fourth. The time was 2:05.
