Belmont Track Racing
Will End Season
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL

NEW YORK. oct 15.-There will be
more racing in New York this year
but as a matter of fact the season will
come to a practical end with the clos
ing Of the gates at Belmont park after
Saturdays card is decided.
The following week there viii be
four days Of the sport at Empire City,
during which few minor stakes will
be decided
After Empire City comes Jamaica
but it viii be a vastly different Jamai-
ca from what race goers have been
used TO in other years. Originally ia
lnaica had nine days allotted it and
until within short time it was the
intention TO use every one of them.
Today, however. at the stock holders
Of the association decided that under
the circumstances five days racing
would be enough. With racing and
open betting at Baltimore it would be
manifestly impossible to hold a long
meeting at Jamaica without great loss.

SCORES IN
PRIZE SHOOT
The SpaIdings Figure in the
Money Several
Times.

The semiannual shoot of the Ha-
waiian Gun Club, held at the Kakaako
traps yesterday, was very successful
affair.
Shooting started at 10 a. NJ, and
there was very representative crowd
present
At times the shooting was up to the
standard, but on the whole the scores
were not as good as usual, owing to a
strong and irregular wind which came
up during the forenoon. In the after
noon, however, the scores picked up,
and some exceptionally good shooting
was done.
The free lunch, new feature of the
club, was greatly enjoyed.
William Charlock acted as referee,
and gave his usual quick and accurate
decisions, which, without exception,
were unquestioned. Charlock is with
out doubt one of the best trap ref
erees in the Territory.
The fifth event, the class shooting
match, was hard on some of the com
petitors, particularly K B. Porter,
who, after making 81 out of 33, lost in

MAkAALA
WON TWICE
Four Horse Races Pleased the
Crowd at kapioIani
Park.

Seven or eight hundred spectators
went to Kapiolani Park yesterday af-
ternoon to take in program of match
races which had been arranged for the
sake of keeping alive the turf tradi-
lions of Kamehameha Day.
While the racing was nothing extra,
the races We're of an interesting ma
ture, and those who journeyed to the
track spent an enjoyable afternoon.
The first event was a quarter of a
mile dash between the Leahi Dairys
Leahi Girl, ridden by young Hollinger.
and F. j. Rodriguez Makaala, ridden
by Jimmy Holt.
Last Saturday Makaala had beaten
the mare at the same distance with
Willis up, and yesterday the Girl ruled
a firm favorite at 10 to 8.
The first start was a false one, both
horses running to the wire. with the
black a dozen lengths to the good.
When they finally got away ding
dong race ensued and Makaala won in
a drive by a length. Time, 0:26 lis.
1t appears that Makaala was just
up from the pasture when he raced
last Saturday. Also yesterday he had
a much lighter weight to carry. Willis
scaled 10 pounds and little Holt only
IS pounds.
The second race was quarter mile
dash between Judge Andrade's Bazaar
H.. ridden by Holt; E. H. Lewis
Shamrock, ridden by Hollinger, and NJ.
Aureus Nuuanu Valley, ridden by All
Hoon.
Bazaar won by three lengths, with
Shamrock finishing nine lengths ahead
of the third starter. The time was
0:24 2-5.
Next on the car was a fve-eighths
dash between Jimmy Hollis Welsh
pony, Japanese-owned horse named
Togo, and All elbows Ii Hung Chang.
Lii Hung Chang led by a narrow
margin all the way and won by half
a length, with Togo beaten off. No
time was taken.
The afternoons sport wound up with
another quarter of a mile dash be-
tween Makaala and Leahi Girl, with
the same riders as in the opening race
of the day.
Makaala won by three lengths in
0:27, showing that the first race was
no fiuke.
There was a deal of desultory talk
of future races; indeed, everyone in
the crowd seemed to have something
which he wanted to match, from ten
mile race to a climb up Diamond
Head

TERRIBLE TERRY
BACK TO LIFE

PHILADELPHIA, May 16.-Terry
McGovern of Brooklyn is still a great
fighter. Before the National Athletic
Club here tonight he gave Young
Loughrey a fearful beating. Young
Corbett was right when he predicted
that the little Brooklyn whirlwind had
recovered his punch. He fought like
the old Terry: he took a stand like
the old Terry and he was the same old
Terry, save that he looked little too
well fed. Loughrey. in his usual bull
dog fashion, camped on the Brooklyn
boy and the harder he was hit the
more he waded in. Terry knocked him
cold in the second with a terrific right
swing, flush upon the jaw. He got up
with blood trickling down the side of
his face and went after Terry again.
The little ex-champion tore after his
man with the rush of oldtime days.
Bang, bang" again, and Loughrey
went down again, this time pulling
McGovern with him. They landed in
heap on the floor. McGovern was
up first, smiling all over. Loughrey'S
corner looked like an Indian war camp
Joe Humphreys and his crew were
waving bottles, towels. buckets and
everything they could lay their hands
on.
The fighters were all over the ring.
Terry pumped right and left handlers
into Loughrey. He was giving this
Philadelphia marvel worse beating
than the peerless Mcfarland had given
him in this very ring. McGovern was
winded from his own exertions. but
Loughrey never changed his gait for q
second.
The first and second rounds were all
Terryis. In the third he pounded
Loughrey back every inch OF the cam
vas. Loughrey seemed unable to cope
with Terry's famous old rushes. He
was bleeding and fighting open-mouth-
ed, but he never stopped.
Terry would belt him with all the
force in his little frame and then stop
with a curious smile playing over his
face as IL he expected to see Lough-
rey crumble and fall.

DOG MATTERS
OF HAWAII mel
Coast Sporting Journal Has
Comments of Local
Interest.

The Breeder and Sportsman, which
devotes a good deal of space TO dog
and gun matters in Hawaii. has the
following notice of Jack Bradshaw,
who judged the last show of the Ha-
waiian Kennel Club:
For SNUG prevarica.tion and egotis-
tical Misrepresentation of a bunch of
hot-air wild flowers the following by
'Wayfarer. referring to the Seattle
show, is about the best in it's peculiar
line:
's'No one dreamed of such an entry
and of course, naturally enough, they
began to look for the cause, when one
bright individual said: Look who's
here" pointing to the judge, which
caused quite a laugh, but while there
was a whole lot of truth in the wits
remark, there's no doubt but that Sec
rotary Bailey's untiring efforts and
Judge Bradshaw's popularity were &C
countabIe for the large entry. The
daily papers were loud in their praises
of the judges awards (somethfng I'M
usual in this neck of the woods; the
Judge generally gets an awful turning
over) and not a kick was recorded
LAS a matter of fact, the Seattle pa
pers were decidedly shy in laudatory
notices of Fried Liver Jack, merely
perfunctory in mention of his connec-
ton with the show. The general in
difference was so thorough that self
boosting was an emergency resort.
This will not mislead fanciers who are
capable of judging for themselves.
The same paper has the following of
interest to local dog fanciers:
There is no import tax or other bar
to the entry of dogs at Honolulu for
the coming bench show in the island
metropolis. Dogs, as well as other
animals, are however. examined be-
fore landing, to prevent the possibility
of the introduction of contagious dis
eases.

GOSSIP OF
THE TWIRLERS
Something of Men Who Will
Pitch in Triangular
Series.

Now that the date of arrival of the
visiting ball teams from the East and
the West is fast approaching, the en-
thusiasts are getting keen, in antici-
patton of one long round of jolly fes-
tivltles and clean sport Knowing, as
is known IN Honolulu, what it means to
import team of fast men, the local
officials have taken an extra long
chance this year, in importing two
teams instead C. one, in order that the
wishes of the lovers of the game in
these Islands may be gratifed
From late news by cable from the
Far East it is learned that the Japan
csc students are doing things to team
from the Z. s. Navy now stationed in
the Orient, a team supposed to repre-
sent the pick of the ball teams of the
entire squadron, while according to
newspaper files received by the s. S.
China, Santa Clara College has Just
closed a season of baseball never be-
fore equaled in the history of the in
stitution.
Joe Nealon, who played first base
for the ''All-Star Spaldings,' and who
has starred for three years as Pitts
burg's highest salaried man, writes:
These boys can certainly go some
when it comes to handling the bali, and
their batting ability and the manner
in which they handle themselves on
bases is certainly revelation to us
oldtimers who are doing it for a liv-
ing
With such reports creeping in it kind
of makes the local boys sit up and take
notice. The Diamond Heads expect to
play Leslie in the box during this sea
son. Quite a little work is needed to
put this youngster in form, as from his
appearance last Saturday it is readily
seen that he has far too much steam,
with no control.
Barney Joy is slated to do the driv-
ing for the Saints. 1t is hard to get
a line on Barney at this time, as he
has yet to step in the box this season,
but according to the wise ones, Barney
will be there with few new ones to
unwind.
Reuter-, it is expected, will be in
proper form to take care of his end of
it for the Hams. His work at the be-
ginning of the present series was not
just up TO the nldEk, out during the idst
two games he has certainly shown
deal of improvement.
Hampton will deliver the goods for
the Punahous, not because the Colts
can't raise anyone else, but because
Hampton, in the opinion of many of
the fans, is better able to take care of
himself than any of the other above
named twirlers.
Hampton is certainly the "eandy
kid when it comes to tight corners,
knowing how to use his head at the
right time, as he demonstrated on more
than one occasion during last Satur
days game.
From the present outlook it is evident
that this series of baseball will be the
biggest attraction these Islands have
ever had in the sporting line.
