DEFEAT COMES
TO PALO ALTO
Eugene Geary's Champion
Greyhound Is Beaten
Pointless at Ingleside
-HARES PROVE STRONG
Unusually Large Number of
Trials Extend Three Min
utes Testing the Hounds

Eugene Geary's old-time champion
greyhound Palo Alto is beginning to
feel his years. The great son Of Emin
Pasha was shut out pointless at Ingle-
side Coursing Park yesterday by Vail
ley Pride. The talent thought so little
of the latter's chances that they freely
laid two to one against her. To their
surprise, she led from the slips, being
first to the hare and killing before Palo
Alto could get up.
There were but four upsets in the
betting on this stake. the favorites
winning consistently. The most pro-
nounced upset was the defeat Of May
Tunison, one to four choice, by Gal
liant Chances. OF the dogs still in the
stake Tralee Lass, Full Moon and Sill
yer Heels are expected to run we'll into
the money.
The most promising candidates for
stake honors in the reserve, event are
Jerry Wright, Queens Motto and Miss
The hares were an unusually strong
lot yesterday, several trials lasting
three minutes and necessitating the use
of relief dogs frequently.

Puff of Fame.

Justice Brewer is from Kansas, and
his State is justifably proud OF him
Soon after his elevation to the Supreme
bench a cigar manufacturer In Topeka
dedicated a ten-cent domestic" cigar
to the jurist, named 1t "Our Justice, -
and on the cover of each box pasted q
portrait Of Mr.. Brewer
A few years ago the Justice was In
Topeka on a business trip. The hotel
clerk recognized him. and the negro
bellboy, although he had no idea who
the newcomer was, knew from the way
he was ordered about that the patron
was of some consequence. Going up In
the elevator the negro stared constant
ly at the tall, dignifled man.
Suddenly the black face was wreath
ed in smiles, and the boy said:
'Scuse me. boss. but amt you de
gemmen dat invented dem 'Ouah Jus
tice' cigars?"
This reminds one Of the man who
was recalling famous persons who
parted their names in the middle"
And then" he said, there is Z.

STANDING OF THE CLUBS.

The same old story. In the same old
way at Recreation Park. San Francis
CO can win all the time If Oakland is
only in the lot. Four in row yester-
day, and another shutout, making
eighteen innings running without a
point for the Commuters. 1t was Wha-
len who did it. and it was Whalen who
drove out three safeties out of four
chances. Score. to %.
Whalen says he can. wallop any CT
them now, but he figures strongly when
AIoskiman is twisting .'enl. :. The last
time Doc pitched James copped four.
Yesterday it was three, and they all
went skimn1ing to the outfleld-all
clean drives, with no chance for a f1uke.
Poor old Otto Young was brought out
OF obscurity by Peter Lohman and told
to do the best he could on the afab.
But the ancient star was not there. he
could not discern the home plate, and
after filling up the bags with passes IN
the opening round he was shorn of tie
pitchers honors and Moskiman came
out to work. An inf1eld out gave San
francisco Cf7e for a starter in that in
ming.
For a while Oakland played pretty
fair ball in the field, and Moskiman
had an assortment which puzzled. He
succeeded in getting out of a couple Of
pretty bad holes, and was holding the
home sluggers where they belonged till
the panic came upon him with all it's
fury in the seventh.
Whalen opened it with a drive to GEN.
ter and Waldron beat q bunt. Hide
brand laid down a sacrifice and Meany
placed a Texas Lacquer" over Nc
Kune's topknot that brought in Wha-
len. Cy Townsend responded with a
double to deep center and Waldron
skipped to the pan. Irwin Joined in the
rally, and so did Anderson. San Fran
cisco emerged four more to the good,
and it was all over then for fair.
Oakland, as usual, had all kinds Of
chances to make runs, but they tossed
each one away just as, they have been
doing all week. No one could hit at the
right time, and no one seemed to care
much whether he did hit or not. Twice
Streib could have brought two In, but
he was not there. Devereaux did the
best work, getting three safe ones and
stealing as many bases.
Kruger executed a catch that will
outshine all the other ones. In the
ninth he ran to the score board after
a drive from Townsends bat and
copped 1t with one mitt, doubling UP
Hildebrand at first base. He caught the
ball on the dead run as it was about
to strike the ground and made the
wonderful play without an effort. The
score:

ATUNROE's MANAGER HURT
IN AUTOMOBILE WRECI
Benzine Buggy Misses Tunnel In the
Park and Is Badly
Broken I'm


A huge automobile whirling in from
the beach before the birds were
awake yesterday morning missed the
tunnel on the south drive near Boule-
ward station in Golden Gate Park. 1t
crashed into the massive pillar near the
entrance. For several minutes the oc-
cupants, Harry Pollok, Munroe's man
ager; a woman known as Margie
O'Brien and the chauffeur, James
Hayes, were mixed up in a tangIe of
cog wheels and splinters.
The woman fell head foremost and
was rendered unconscious. As soon
as Pollok and Hayes could extricate
themselves they picked her up and
carried her to Sheehan's tavern. a
mile distant. Afterward she was re-
moved to a sanitarium, where she was
found to be suffering from a slight
concussion of the brain.
Pollok and the chauffeur were badly
bruised, but sustained no serious in
juries. The motor car was almost a
total wreck and had to be removed
from the scene of the catastrophe in
a truck. The machine is owned by
the Mobile Garage Company.
