Coquetry of Professor
in Menagerie

Mobiles w. H. Harrison and Herbert
Cornish of tho Ancient Arabic Order
Mobiles of the Mystic Shrine, All Malai-
kah temple, visited Venice yesterday for
the purpose of taking formal possession
of the animal department of the Sells
Floto shows under their contract for
their use for the second annual Shriner
circus to be given during the week of
April 6.
Ever since negotiations have been
completed for the formal transfer of
this circus to the Shriners Prof. Har-
rison has been insistent that his talents
as an animal trainer be recognized.
Having devoted his later years to the
circus>and menagerie business-particu-
larIy the training of wild beast-which
he has long contemplated to be ulti-
mately known as the HARRISON Zo-ologi-
cal institute, Noble Harrison felt that
he was the one man fitted to take
charge of the menagerie of the Shriners'
circus.
Mamma" is the recognized leader of
the huge pachyderms at Venice. Usual
ly of a most amiable disposition, she
resented Harrison's advances Coming
toward the Shriner at rush she
grasped him in her powerful trunk
about the waist, raised him high I'm the
air and tossed him thirty feet away,
dropping him on the cement floor.
Noble Cornish rushed to his assist
ance, and when the professor had re-
covered from his stupor and was grace
fully reclining on a stretcher 1t was
apparent that he regarded his injuries
with Indifference, but his keenest
anguish came from mental torture.
The professor states that his services
are too valuable to be continued in a
professional capacity In the menagerie,

MANY START
IN EVENTS
by IRVING b. CLEMENT

Large fields will be the rule in the
majority of the events this afternoon
at Santa Anita park. The class of
horses in five of the races is up to the
usual midweek standard. The feature
event on the program is the fourth
race, a purse affair at mile and
three -sixteenths, and a fair lot are en-
tered.
There is speed galore in the opening
dash, and a new record for this dis
tance may be hung out, as such good
sprinters as Billy Mayham, Adelbert
Belle, Creston Boy, Anna May, Golden
Rule, J. ]. McC, Koenigin Louise and
several others will compete for the
purse.
some very good 2-year-olds will go
over the three and half furlong route.
Royal Stone is a half brother TO that
good colt Firestone, and he has been
doing we'll in his morning trials. SILK
Hose is a highly tried filly from the
barn of S. C. Hildreth and Dugan will
ride her. Pops will have Schilling in
the saddle. Inclement has done all
asked of her and is a good looking
trick. Coriel and Bell of Brass are
both fast.
Fair Lot In
A fair lot will go a mile in the third
race. Pal is a good horse and has been
finishing fast in shorter races. Rust
ling silk ran a good race her last time
out. Fisher Boy is a morningglory ana
does not run to work. Brawney Lad
goes better in the mud.
Baron Esher, Edwin 7. Fryer, Chal-
fonte, L. C. Widrig and Chimney sweep
will meet in the fourth race, and they
are an evenly matched lot. This should
be a hotly contested race all the way
as there is plenty 'of speed. Baron
Esher and Edwin T. Fryer will be run
ming great guns at the end.
Sainrida will have Martin in the sad
die in the fifth race and she likes the
distance. Rama has shown liking Tor
a route, as she finishes gamely in most
of her races. Cotillion improves with
each race. Lady Vashti has lot OF
early speed but prefers a shorter dis
tance. Sunray does well in her morn
ing gallops.
A mixed lot of sprinters will go over
the five furlong route in the closing
event of the day. Bribery is classy
mare and is fit and ready. Instructor
is a fast trick; so is Cataline Ella
True is a sleeper in Walkers barn that
was brought from Oakland. Rey del
Mundo usually runs we'll at this dis
tance.

ups. slides and other things to be
heard of only when the baseball season
ie in full swing. The White Sox and
angels open their series at the Chutes
this afternoon and if they don't fill
Hen Berry's old camping ground II
will be because the city has been de-
populated overnight.
Nothing has been too good for the
Soy since their arrival here, but at
that the Chicagoans have managed to
s:destep many of the invitations eX-
tended to put in a few hours practice
each day. The long winters rest stiff
fened some of them up, but the work
cone through at the Chutes has loos-
ened up the kinks and the whole bunch
is playing championship ball again.
The Angels got together Sunday and
had their first practice the following
morning. Cap Dillon is confident his
men will give the easterners all that
IS coming to them and is predicting
a certain victory for Berry's hirelings
IN the opening spasm.
In all probability Doc White VIII
twirl the opening game for the big
ieaguers and Dolly Gray will shoot for
the locals. Manager Jones of the Sox
las not put in an appearance yet, but
he is expected in before the teams take
the field.
The White Sox are about the best
locking and most pleasing bunch of
tall players ever imported from across
the big hills and their quarters at the
Lankershim are the rendezvous for all
the fans in town. Nick Altrock holds
a daily reception for his old friends
and President Comiskey is kept busy
telling the fine POINTS of the invisible
ones who shun the spotlight.
The game will be called at 2:30 and
Hank O'Day will be in charge of the
indicator. The big league umpire has
been prevailed on to stay here while
the series with the American leaguers
- on and will act as arbiter of diamond
doings until the Sox wander back home.

LATES RULE MAY
DlSQUALIFY CARS
EE Associated Press.


CHICAGO, March 5.-Through new
ruling cabed from Paris yesterday the
American car entered i'm the New York
to Paris automobile race has an op-
portunity to make a runaway" of it
after reaching Seattle. The race was
so timed that all the racers could reach
Seattle between March s and 10, when
the boat to carry them across the water
was to sail.
1t was understood that those not
there when the boat departed were
disqualified. When the bad roads and
snowdrifts were struck a "gentlemens
agreement" was entered into whereby
it was understood that every car
should do it's level best until March
or 6-just as it suited-and then the
cars should be sent by train to Seattle.
On the presumption that this agree
ment was still in effect the Germans
and the French did not hurry much
in reaching Chicago, figuring that they
could ship their cars from this city.
They We're, therefore, much chag1ined
last night upon receiving cable instruc-
tions to proceed to San Francisco under
their own power and take later boat
out of San Francisco. The Frenchmen
leave Chicago today and the Germans
will depart Sunday.

BROCK WILL
MEET MEMSIC
SIGNED FOR GO
NEXT MONTH
Smith and Van Horn carded for Semi
Windup and the Men viii
Start Training at
Once

George Memsic has been matched
with Phil Brock for a fight early next
month and the fans will have another
chance to see Kid Dalton's conqueror
in action. They can also find out if
Memsic's flash in the pan reputation
is any good now, and George will have
a chance to make up for what his de-
feat at the hands of Rude UnhOlz got
him.
One preliminary to the main event
was also staged. Rube Smith, ready
to do anything to get a fight, has taken
on Russell Van Horn and will go on
for ten rounds in the semi-windup. 1t
should be one good scrap, for both
men are out of the parlor brigade and
slug ali the way when they get busy.
Both Memsic and Brock will go on
about their business and start training
at once. Memsic will take a run up to
the Murietta springs and rest a while
in the mountains, but his opponent will
settle down at the East Side club this
week and go through the first course
of hard work with Rube Smith and
Johnny COulon.
The match between Memsic and
Brock was a disappointment to Pete
Sullivan, as he had hopes of getting on
with one or the other at an early date.
Sullivan is anxious to show the local
fans that he did not run out when the
chance to meet Memsic was given him,
for other reasons interfered and kept
him away from Los Angeles. He will
possibly be given Clarence English as
an opponent if the latter can be in
duced to come here.
Young McGovern and Coulon are
both training hard for their fight for
the splinterweight championship and
are now down to JOG pounds. The
weight question is easy for both boys,
as they fight at natural poundage, so
each will devote his time to strength
ening his wind and punching ability.
