|CLOUDLIGHT Wins
HOLLOW VICTORY
ROmps Away From FavOrife,
Fern L, and Fast Closing
Napa Nick

Cloudlight, the clever daughter of
Bright Phoebus and Lovelight. proved
an easy winner of the Belmont handi-
cap at Emeryville yesterday. The
event, which was at five and a half fur
longs, was the feature of the card and
attracted field of five, Spohn having
been withdrawn because owner Ander
son did not have the services of A. Will
liams or some other good boy. Owing
to her victory the day previous, Fern
was a heavily supported favorite, but
she disappointed her hackers.
Jackson's mare was off flying, but
she did not maintain the advantage
long, as Cloudlight moved up quickly
and assumed command. She gradually
drew away and won by over length
from the fast closing Napa Nick. The
race the day before evidently dulled the
speed Of Fern L. She beat Inclement a
nose for third money.
Favorftes took two of the races, but
the other winners were we'll played.
For the first time this season the
colors of Burns & Waterhouse were
seen in front in the opening event.
They were carried by Altarec, an Alta
max youngster, galloping home in front
of Dolly B, with Clara Hampton, the
favorite, next. Sir Bon came in for
considerable support, but failed to
show anything
The stable connections thought well
of Welakao in the second. another
Nnaiden 2 year old affair. He closed
favorite and won easily from Zlata
Brana and Abe Slupskey. Zwick, the
opening favorite, was beaten off.
Followers of first choices were hit
hard when Ampedo failed to cut any
figure in the third. Salvage won easily
from May Pink and Sainotta.
Banonica won all the way in the
fifth, while Billy Myer beat Madeline
Musgrave for second place. Acquia,
the favorite, with Thomas up, broke
poorly and made very poor showing.
Airs was easily the best in the last
and beat Dorothy Ledgett and Good
Ship. Bevan was of little assistance to
the latter.

SENATORS ONCE MORE
BLANKED BY OAKLAND
Christian Has the Number OF Graham S
Swatters Throughout Game
Bu Joseph MURPHY

One bad session was again the undo-
ing of the Senators and for the second
afternoon In succession Graham's men
went through the nine innings without
getting a run for themselves With an
advantage of two runs Christian was
satisfied, and he kept the paths clear
most of the time. There were but Few
stages of the game when the up coun-
try tossers were threatening and II
looked like an Oakland victory all the
way through The finish was TO
against Sacramento.
The game opened up with Nourse do
ing the heaving for the Senators and
Christian doing the heavy work for
the transbay crew. The game went
along nicely for two innings but in the
third Nourse started trouble for him
self. He simply went to pieces and ne
was yanked out of the game before he
finished the frame and Jimmy Whalen
finished the set to.
Jimmy pitched gilt edge ball for six
and two-thirds frames. and held the
Oaks down to a brace of hits. But the
damage had been done and he could
not repair il.
The Senators switched the lineup
around again. Babe Reams was shift
ed over to short and Raymer was sent
infield worked like a we'll oiled clock.
Perry smote out a triple during the
middle of the game after two were
down and this was one of the few
times that the Lawmakers threatened
to score.
Nourse went through two innings
without allowing a hit. In the third
frame Mite started the trouble by
poking out single to left field. Perry
erred in fielding the ball and Mite was
allowed to go as far as second Chris
tian was safe on fielder's choice and
Cutshaw bunted safely. filing the bags
Wares failed to do any good. He rolled
one down to Reams who fielded it,
and threw Mite out at the plate. At
this stage Nourse took an ascension
and before the string was cut, the
game had been handed to the Oaks.
Wolverton's appearance at the bat
seemed to unnerve the Senator twirler
and he lost on four bad ones. This
mistake forced Christian home. Cam
eron was also given free trip TO the
initial sack and Cutshaw was forced
home
From this period the game developed
into a pitchers battle. in which the
swatters were made the fall guys.
There was nothing doing and the Oak
land fans were satisfied. Score:

JEFFRIES BOXES
With CHOYNSKI
"Was Mere Baby i'm His Hands,
Declares Fighter Who Once
Fought Him to Draw

BEN LOMOND, Cal. May 5.-Joe
Choynski had his first tryout with
Jim Jeffries today, and at the close OF
the three round bout declared that
while he was in excellent shape him
self, he was a mere baby in the hands
OF the big man. Jeffries gave Cho-
ynski, who has assumed charge of the
boxing end OF the training camp, every
chance to make a good showing in
the opening exercises, but while Joe
displayed much of his old time clever
ness, Jeffries was much the faster
showing the great progress he has
made since the affair in San Francisco
many years ago when Choynski sue
ceeded in gaining a draw decision
with Jeffries.
No visitors were permitted in the
big inclosure for both Choynski and
Papke were to be taken on for their
first time and Jeffries has always been
on such occasions. Papke was taken
on first, Jeffries being as gentle with
the middle weight as his natural rug
gedness would permit. In the second
round he gave Billy a rather stiff
right over the eye which severely
shook up the boy from Kewanee, and
raised bit of a lump which will prob
ably discolor before morning.
Better not use that right on me.
Papke whispered as they fiddled and
thereafter Jeffries used his left en-
tirely.
After the setto Papke said: Il wish
had boxed with JEFF all the time. Not
once did he hit me hard Intentional
ly and a fellow like me can learn a
lot of boxing with him. I am a pretty
strong fellow myself but L am mere
baby in his hands. When he leaned
his weight on me a couple of times
thought he was going to break my
back
Then came the bout with Choynski
The two faced each other for the first
time since the 90 round draw in
San Francisco in 1897. The two men
smiled affectionately at each other as
they put up their hands for the first
round. Like Papke, Choynslli looked
like pigmy alongside the retired
champion.
Choynski is evidently in better con-
dition than any of the other boxers in
the Jeffries camp. He displayed much
of his old time agility and prowess and
came out of the contest without being
distressed. They went at it with a
Will, JEFF favoring Joe all the way
being even more gentle with him than
with Papke. Choynski was tickled
10 QedlH Win HllbSell, aS wen DIS with
Jeffries, and declared that after a few
more days of sparring he wouldt show
to much better advantage. In his
work with Choynski. Jeffries delighted
his trainers by displaying a lot of the
old time ginger. He romped around
the ring like a boy who loved the
game.
Papke will leave here for training
quarters near San Francisco Satur-
Hn l,ox
completed his training for Joe Thomas
here. but Promoter Coffroth insisted on
his being nearer the scene of his com
ing bout. jeff has taken great fancy
TO Papke and will greatly, regret his
departure.

baseball luck and. bad judgment by the
