IMPORTANT BILLIARD
MATCH IS ARRANGED
Walter johnson and George Kennedy
Agree Upon Conditions of Two
Game Series at Three
Cushions

Arrangements for a match series at
throe-cushion billiards have been made,
and Walter johnson and George Ken
nedy will be the principals in this inn
portant match. Johnson issued a chal-
lenge to Kennedy through The Herald
a few days ago, accompanying his chal-
lenge with a $50 forfeit 10 bind the
match in the event of acceptance and
to go as a part of a side bet of 800.
Kennedy, through Hen Berry, promptly
accepted the challenge.
After johnson and Kennedy had con-
ferred last night and agreed upon the
principal points to be discussed, John
son and Jack Scotland came to The
Herald office and posted the remaining
$50 with the sporting editor. Kennedy
was interviewed and said that if the
match could be arranged upon basis
of two 50-point games, to be played
Monday and Tuesday nights, 1t could
be considered on. This was agreeable
all the way round. Berry will post the
S100 Monday to cover Johnson's deposit.
The first game will be played Monday
night Mt the Hoffman parlorS and the
second game will be played Tuesday
night at the Casino parlors
There always has been keen rivalry
between Kennedy and Johnson and
their respective admirers. They have
PLAYED several times, and this series
is expected to settle their little argu-
ment. Both players are in good stroke
now and some classy Billiards may be
expected.

the world record for six furlongs. The
record, until last fall, was held jointly
by Roseben and Colonel Bob, the latter
having given to Santa Anita the dis
tinction of an equalled world record;
but Nimbus, at Empire City track
August IS last, reduced this record
two-fifths of a second, setting 1t at
Ill 1-5. Nimbus carried 109 pounds
in that race, as against 104 pounds for
Glorio yesterday.
Archibald rode Glorio. and this good
jockey certainly put up a perfect ex-
hibition of jockeyship. He took Glorio
away from the post in third place and
in the scramble for positions was fourth
at the half, seven lengths behind Rose
gal and Colloquy, the pacemakers.
Glorio was fit and ready for his best
effort and responded nobly to the urg-
ing of Archibald, but the pace was so
stiff that he could not make much gains
into the stretch. Here Archibald
saved ground and set the speedy colt
down to business. In the dash
through the stretch Glorio showed
dazzling burst of speed and outgamed
riding Colloquy, which had passed
Rosegal at the stretch turn and
seemed to be winning easily In
tight fit and terrific drive Glorio got
up in time to win from Colloquy by
three-quarters of a length, while Center
SnOl, showing MS DSSl SPOCu'
from sixth place and nipped the firing
Rosegal for the show. Rifeman, Bur
CHER and Redondo finished in the order
named behind Rosegal. Glorio was
overlooked in the betting, because of
the presence of Colloquy and Rosegal,
and closed at IL to 1.
Joe Madden Repeats
Joe Madden, the crack son of Yankee
which Sam Hildreth bought from john
q. Madden last fall, repeated his pre-
vious and only out at the track by
winning the second race from Friend
Harry, Homecrest and DezConnets,
doing the six furlongs in Iii As. Joe
was the favorite Incidentally, he dis
tinguished himself by beating Friend
Harry, which had been beaten only
one other, time in his racing career.
Prince Ahmed, making his first start
on the coast, spreadeagled his field in
the opening event and never left the
result in doubt from the rise of the
barrier. Netting, which closed at 40
to 1, was second, and skye third. The
finish in this race was exciting, barring
first place, as four horses were noses
on for the place.
Ben Trovato and Pretension had a
hard fight for first money in the fifth
race, the former winning by three
quarters OF a length in the fast time
Of 1887 3-5 for the mile. Ben always
was in front until turning for home,
when Pretension had a head the best
of it but in the run for the wire the
Chinn candidate weakened under pres
sure and lost out in the last ten yards
Alma DuFour ran an improved race

upon the handicap, which was at a
mile for 2-year- olds, with a value of
$3.50 to the winner. Mailman, with ia
pounds up, went to the front early,
and, leading all the way, won by a
neck from Palo Alto, the outsider. Bon
Homme, who had no excuses, beat
Anna L. Daley less than length for

MAXWELL GOES ABROAD
TO STUDY CONDITIONS

The purpose of the European trip of
J. D. Maxwell, vice president Of the
Maxwell Briscoe Motor company, is re-
ported to be that of studying foreign
trade conditions with a view to the
possibilities of the expectation of Max
we'll oars during the 1910 season. After
making himself conversant with the
requirements of the European market
Mr.. Maxwell win proceed to Mexico
and other South American countries,
in all of which the Maxwell people eX-
pect to find ready market for their
cars. In connection with this report
the fact that the Maxwell-Briscoe
Motor company contemplates the erec-
ton of fourth factory near San Fran
cisco assumes a most important aspect.
Los Angeles herald., 1908-12-13

The feature event of the card was
the Monrovia handicap at one and
one-eighth miles, which was won by
Stanley Fay in the good time of
ISL 3-5, just a second slower than the
world record made by Charles Edward
last year. This sure was a horse race
and one where real class and the con-
test between truly great horses stirred
the crowds to great enthusiasm as the
field dashed down the stretch to an un-
certain result until the numbers were
hung out.
r. F. Carman's clever colt Maya
zine, looked all over winner when
the field turned into the stretch, hav-
ing held an advantage of a full length
from the barrier to that point with
out showing any signs of distress from
the effects of the terrific pace forced
by those behind. Green Seal, Light
Wool and Vox Populi had taken
all but Vox Populi had been run dizzy
and forced to quit.
When the field Strengthened out for
home Magazine led by length, with
Vox Populi half a length in front of
Stanley Fay, which had three lengths
advantage over Light Wool. Green
Seal had stopped to last, Montgomery
had moved up notch to fifth place,
and the fast-coming Edwin T. Fryer
was holding down sixth place, after
trailing his field away back for nearly
a mile. Then horses and jockeys put
forth their best efforts. At the pad
dock it seemed that Vox Populi, which
was added yesterday, would win, de-
spite that he was last away from the
barrier. Magazine was showing signs
of WEAKNESS and had been passed by
Vox Popull Stanley Fay was finish
ing like a cyclone, and in the last
twenty yards it was a four-horse hard
drive for first money. When the horses
went under the wire the judges caught
the finish as follows: Stanley Fay first
by half a length, Vox Populi second
by the same margin and Magazine
third by a short snoot. Edwin I. Fry
err. finishing with his classy rush,
would have been second in a couple of
more jumps but had to remain outside
the money.
The race was the third stake event
of the season and the first that Will
liam Walker has annexed. 1t was
worth $1720 net, having gross value
of $2270. The time was exceptionally
good, and every horse in the race was
doing his best The result might have
been different had Edwin T. Fryer got
in his stride sooner and VoX Populi
might have won had he got away with
the leaders. Incidentally the race of
Montgomery was a sore disappoint-
ment to Sam Hildreth, whose misfor
tunes with his high-class and high
priced string in the last two years
have been the source of much COM
ment.
The real sensation of the day was
furnished by Glorio in the third race,
when this good bush Splinter egualed

Caspar Whitney for three successive
years. After graduating he occupied
the position of head coach of the var
sity squad and turned out many crack
aggregations. He first came to Cali
fornia as coach of the Sherman Indian
eleven during the fall of 1904, and sue
ceeded in turning out a winning team.
In 1905 he coached the University OF
North Carolina and in 19O6-Ol ne was
head coach at Colgate university and
accepted the position of coach of the
sherman Indians this season.
Undoubtedly Warner is the best foot
ball coach i'm the west today and the
college that secures his services next
season will be represented by Win

Dutiful is aristocratically bred, being
son of Faraday, dam Slipalong, and
is years old. Age has not dulled his
speed, and no stouter-hearted horse
ever looked through a bride. When
his racing days are over he will be re-
tired to the stud, and Dunno values him
very highly for this purpose. IF The
Huguenot, Aunt Polly and half a dozen
other racers of extreme age could earn
their oats at 10. ~ and 10 years of age.
there is no reason on earth why Duti-
full as sound and speedy as ever, can
not do the same thing. Dutiful always
has been the special pet of the women
who attend the races, and it is a safe
bet that ne will carry their commits
sions every time he goes to the post in
the future.

1T WILL be most pleasing news to a
large army of racegoers that the
old gray darling, Dufitul, which
always ran so consistently at Ascot, is
to come back TO the races again after
long absence. Dutiful, which now is
owned by J. e. Dunno, was shipped to
Santa Anita early in the fall from
DUNES ranch, where his pet had been
resting for several months and get
ting back into condition to go to the
races again. He has been sent along
easily at Santa Anita in steady and
systematic course of training, and has
turned out as sound as a new dollar
and is working as fast as ever. Pat
Murphy, who formerly owned and cam
paigned the old boy, says that Dutiful
