Beautiful "TempIar Way"
AT Washington street the marchers
turned west to State, where they en-.
tered on the "Templar Way" This
stretch extended from Randolph to
Van Buren, street and was made beau
tiful by handsome arch and massive
Corinthian columns of pure white
erected thirty-three feet apart on both
sides OF the street. Festoons of natur-
al laurel connected the columns, and
the bright red cross and the shield
and coat of arms of the order were
prominent In the scheme of decora.
ton.
Moving south to Jackson boulevard,
the knights again turned west. and
near the federal building passed be-
fore yet another reviewing stand
which accommodated Governor Deneen
and his staff. Marching north on La
Sale street, the parade passed be-
meath the grand commandery arch of
pure white which spanned the street
at the La Sale hotel, the headquarters
of the grand commandery of Illinois.
This was beautiful structure de-
signed by one of Chicago's most IA
nous sculptors. Upon its top stood
the figures of mounted knights four.
teen feet high. At the new city hall
on Washington street the parade was
dismissed, after marching forty three
blocks
Care For the Marchers.
Everything that could be thought
of for the comfort of the paraders and
the spectators was done by the local
committees. In nearly every block
along the line of march were station
ed physicians who were also knights
templar, with trained nurses and
equipment for emergency cases. In
addition, emergency hospitals to be
kept open day and night during the
conclave were established at many
points In the center of the city, and
at the West Side ball park which was
selected as the place for the competi-
tive drills.
Wednesday and Thursday were the
days set apart for the drills for which
handsome trophies are awarded, and
band concerts, sight seeing and many
receptions were on the program.
Enhancing Scenes at Night.
The scene in the streets at night
was especially beautiful. for all the
arches, festoons and columns of the
decorative scheme were brilliantly H.
Illuminated, and on State street, in ad.
dition to the "Templar Way" the mer-
chants had put up decorations that
transformed the great shopping dis
trict into a veritable fairly land.
Undoubtedly the most spectacular
feature Of the night display was the
wonderful electric set piece erected
in Grant park on the lake front re.
producing in colossal size the official
emblem or badge of the concave It
was $50 feet high and its 5000 power.

Fans Will Miss Two
Great Players

Two players have been released by
two American leag clubs this spring
who are of the type that professional
baseball can i'll afford to lose.
They are William Keeler and George
s. Davis.
Keller has been offered $4,000 to play
with the New York Giants.
Keeler and Davis are two men in the
history of the national game whose
careers as exemplars of a paid sport
have been straightforward, manly and
honest with the public.
From the outset they have given the
best of their efforts to the clubs with
which they have been engaged.
Both are better versed than the aver
age player. in the strategy and techni-
cal knowledge of the game.
Baseball can ill afford to lose men of
the Davis and Keeler type, and it is to
the credit of the player body in gen
eral that their number is increasing in
the ranks of the major leagues rather
than showing tendency to diminish

EXODUS TO EASTERN
TRACKS DUE SOON
Two Score Racers Considered
Good Enough for Fast
Competition There
By E. w. CLARKE

With the shipment of Walter Jen-
nings' horses to New York next Fri
day the exodus of the best horses at
Emeryville will begin, and by April
/ 80 or 40 racers, considered good
enough for the eastern game, will be
on their way.

useful in the east, and if he gets the
services of a competent jockey he may
again top the list of trainers. Right
Easy and Prince Ahmed are about the
only ones of stake caliber in the barn,
but he will have Jeanette NJ and
knight Deck for the handicaps. Paja-
roita. Bellwether, Richard Reed and
Madman for the sprints and some of
less quality for the selling events.
Daggie Smiths incursion into the
eastern field will be watched with in
terest by Californians. Turret is a
year old, which may be able to
hold his own with some of the best;
Judge Quinn is fair sort and Frank
Ruhstaller, fit and fast, should take
many of the early year old races.
Walter Jennings FLY Cache will also
be heard from in the baby division
while the eastern youngsters are yet
green.
Molera and Josephs will go into the
Water. Cloudlight and the maiden
year old Pico Blanco. The two
should at least pay expenses.
Andy Blakely will send Arasee and

vius and Ossabar east at the end of
the week. He tried to purchase other
good youngsters, but at last reports
had failed. Pluvius. on his only start.

worth the s2.SOO paid for him. He was
bred at Ormondale.
Silver Knight, one of the most con-
sistent handicap horses here, will be
taken east by c.. r. Jones, and prob
ably the best of George Berry's .
year olds will go to uphold the honor
of California.
While the departure of these horses
will lower the average class of the
racers at Emeryville, there will be
enough good platers left to make the
sport interesting until May-almost
as interesting as it has been all winter
in spite of adverse conditions.
If the meeting is extended beyond
May the horsemen will be put to the
point of choosing between the local
track, Salt Lake and British Columbia,
providing, of course, that there is rae
ing on the northern tracks. If the
Salt Lake dates do not come until
June the owners would rather stay at
Emeryville.
With Taplin on the ground indefi-
nitely because of an injured foot, the
other bows will have a chance to di-
vide the jockey honors. Taplin, In
spite of his broken toes, headed the
list again last week with five winners;

BARBARIANS DO UP
RIVAL SOCCERITfS
San Francisco Team Beaten on
Football Field by the
Score of 2 to
By BOB sHAND

The Barbarians defeated the San
Francisco team, 2 goals to 1. in the
first round of the soccer cup eompeti-
ton. played at the Preside grounds
yesterday afternoon. 1t was a rafting
fast game, but the pace told on the San
Francisco boys and they faded away
in the last half after holding one goal
lead at the end of the first period. The
Barbarians were in the best possible
condition and were playing strong
game at the finish as they did at the
start.
The San Franciscos fattered their
supporters in the beginning of the
game when they made several danger
Gus runs down the field and gave Brown
some difficult shots to handle. The Bar
barian custodian got away with num-
ber of hard ones. The score was opened
by Priest from a nice center from
Gates The latter player has been ca
vorting with the Argonauts in the
Western league and made an auspicious
debut in faster company. Erb, the
Stanford player, lacked confidence, and
his partner in the back division of the
Barbs, Buckingham, played a poor game.
The San Francisco lads had all the
better of the going in the first period
and well deserved their lead at the in
terval.
The second period was all in favor OF
the Barbarians and the club boys expe-
rienced hard luck in falling TO notch at
least three goals. Ten minutes after
the resumption of hostilities Bernard,
Lees and Elliot ca rried the ball down
the field in a pretty passing rally, and
Bernard found the net with grand
shot.
For five minutes thereafter the>Barbs
bombarded the LOCALS goal, but Lewis
played phenomenal game and turned
the best efforts of the forwards aside.
In collision with Elliot. Lewis was
injured. but he gamely remained on the
field. The Barbs moved Buckingham TO
the center forward position in the sec
ond half and the change made a big
difference. Erh gained confidence as
the game progressed and was the best
back on the field. The final goal was
scored shortly before the finish after
the Barbarian forwards had hit the
crossbar five times. Elliot sent in a
shot. which Lewis saved, but Lees
caught the ball on the rebound and
placed II where it did the most good.
The Albion Rovers' regular team de-
feated the Yannig gans, to 0, on the
Alameda grounds.
