The Santa Monica road race yesterday was the principal event ln local sports. The affair does not appear to have been satisfactory to many of the contestants, and it is not likely that the race will be repeated soon again. Golf was played al Redondo on Friday and Saturday and was well patronized. Catallna Island is attracting the usual summer crowds and the sports of fishing and yachting are popular. Pugilism In local circles will receive an impetus on Friday night, when the Los Angeles Athletic club will give three Interesting bouts.

The Trllbys and Bakersfield baseball clubs played at Athletic park yesterday and a good game was witnessed. In east the principal event of the week ln pugilistic circles was the attempt of Jeffries to knock out Armstrong and In the same evening. The local man broke his arm on Armstrong, but was given the decision. There is talk of a meeting between him and Fltzsimmons. Hamburg, the race horse of Marcus Daly, has demonstrated himself to be the greatest 3-year-old of the year.

THE WHEEL Santa Monica road races are likely to decrease still further in popularity unless different arrangements are made to assure the contestants that they are getting a square deal. It was openly charged and In a measure substantiated yesterday that Manager D. L. Burke was altogether too much Interested in certain riders, namely those mounted on Thistle wheels, for whlcn Mr. Burke ls the local agent.

There Is quite a line of circumstances which tends to demonstrate that the riders have not a little cause for complaint. As the story goes, Burke was the promulgator of all these races and in each has not failed to see that tbe Thistle oame out first. In the races on the Fourth of July there was a contestant named A. C. Muff, a well-built, "husky-looking" rider, who had gone only fifty or sixty feet when he broke his chain.

He could not get another wheel and therefore repaired the chain and was started half an hour later ln regular form. His time ln making the ride was 44 minutes, the fastest time made ln any race which has yet taken place over the course between this city and Santa Monica. He was ruled out on account of his accident and Thistle riders won the honors. Not discouraged by this result, Muff entered ln the race of two weeks ago, but was again unfortunate and had to finish with a deflated result of a puncture.

Mr. Burke was again the promulgator of the event and was also the handicapper and timekeeper. When the result of the race was announced It was found that Roy Plpher had won the first-to-flnlsh prize and the time prize had been awarded to Fred Dee, rider of a Thistle wheel.

Muff thereupon entered a protest. It was his firm conviction that he had made the fastest time and he so stated. Dee said he did not want the glory unless he had honestly earned It and at the instance ot the two boys' friends It was arranged that their respective merits should be put to the test In a second race to tnke place on the Santa Monica track forthwith. The principals agreed and all hands adjourned to the track after a two hours' wrangle. The management offered a trophy to the winner In the form of a gold medal, but announced that whatever the result It shoulrl not affect the decision ln the original race.

It was decided that the test should be a pursuit race and ln the toss for place Dee was assigned to the far side of the track. The contestants were therefore half the circumference of the track apart, and the Idea was that the first to catch and pass the other should be adjudged the fastest rider. In Just eight and a quarter laps Muff passed Dee "In a walk." This put the management ln a rather unenviable light and the dissatisfaction which generally prevailed before the test was greatly enhanced. Many of tho riders now declare they will have nothing more to do with the contests unless a disinterested Judge and timekeeper are put ln. Another ls announced for the first Sunday in September.

Roy Plpher, who was the first rider to cross the finish line, is a Los Angedes boy, living at 330V4 South Spring street. Fred Dee. over whose victory there hangs' a cloud, was given the time Thistle he himself considerately says that there might be a mistake. Dee is also an Angeleno, living at 2139 Trinity street. He is accredited with the fastest time yet made by a winner in these contests.

W. McCllntock, who was the winner of the second time prize, is now anxious for a "go" with Muff. Burke contends that the latter is a much better track riek-r than he is a road rider, and offers this statement as an explanation of the result in the test race. The detailed record of the finish and handicaps ls as follows: Position. Handicap.

There wiP be no road race this year, but Instead the morning will be taken Up with pleasuro runs to the various points of interest about the city.

Several match racfs will be run off, and the management is arranging far. another race between Furman of Los Angeles and Carson Shoemaker of this city, the cyclones of the bike track. Another event of interest will be the five mile team race between the telegraph boys of this city and Los Angeles. 000 "Long Bill" Furman has recovered from the effects of his accident when al away horse collided with him and knocked him down and cut his head. Furman in company with Joe Stamps ls working hard every day In preparation for the coming races at Riverside on September 9th.

There will he the usual road; race, down Magnolia avenue ln the morning followed by track races In the afternoon. Furman Intends to compete ln all of the principal events. The Orient sextette will be sent to Riverside within the course of a few days. Manager Post is devolving some Ideas to astonish the people in that section of the county. GOLF The extraordinary advance that the royal game of golf has made ln Southern California during the last few months Ist best evidenced by the numbers of links that have sprung up like mushrooms at every resort that lays claim to be up-to-date and attractive.

Only a year ago a man walking down Spring street with a bag of golf clubs under his arm would have been stared at by the populace with an Interest akin to that bestowed on any other Iridescent maniac. But today it Is different. Even those who have never handled a driver In their lives and ken not the difference between "dormie" and "stlmle" affect the golfing costume and run to bizarre effects ln stockings. Today there are links ln Los Angeles, Santa Monica (two), Redondo, Avalon, Terminal Island, Riverside, Pasadena and Coronado. The converts to the game are numbered by the hundreds, and, once engaged, they find lis charms irresistible.

The progress that many of the tyros in the game have shown Is also amazing, and ln a very short time Southern California will have golfers to cope with any that may oome along from St. Andrews or anywhere. There are a few heresies about the game as played hereabouts that the Scotchman would denounce in warm terms. Some of the clubs have local laws that are altogether too loose. For Instance, at Redondo, provided your lie is in the course, you are permitted, if you find it convenient, to pick the ball up and place It ln a better He behind Its former resting place.

In golf legitimate the player loses a stroke whenever he touches the ball, and with this penalty the player is bound to drop the ball blindly over his shoulder. It is only resorted to in absolutely unplayable places. Again, the difficulty of providing the proper quality and moistness of sand for tees has introduced a noxious Innovation in the shape of artificial tees, made of rubber hose. When you have driven off, Instead of keeping your eyes on the baW until you come Up to It again, your attention is diverted to that rubber-necking piece of hose. It ls a damnable distraction to the game and ought to be expurgated.

The Redondo handicap and championship tournament, played last Friday and Saturday, proved a great social and sporting success. The newly laid Ocean Park links at South Santa Monica provide the most sporting course in Southern California. The hazards and genuine bunkers will take the conceit out of some of the golfers who have been making fine scores on croquet girounds. The Los Angeles club has grown out of Its present links and Is to hold a meeting this week to lake definite action for securing a splendid site only a short distance from the present grounds. The Coronado links boast the only genuine "greens" in the southern part of the state.

The "grays" and "browns" of local START OF THE BICYCLE RACE links are, however, much truer and more satisfactory than grass could possibly in this climate. A tournament will shortly bo given by the Park golf club on their grounds. Will Tufts has returned from a short visit to Catallna island. Willam Robertson, the professional of the San Francisco Golf club, is to go to De 1 Monte for the month of August. He was there the past week, antl will spend the ne-xt month at nftar the hotel instructing guests in the sport.

Hei has established a record of 41 for the links, and may improve on that as soon as he learns the ground. The record was made as follows: 4, 6, 3, 5, 4, 5, 4, 6, In the tournament for the president's cup at Shinnecock Hills, N. Harry B. Hollls. won after playing a wonderful game with G.

C. Clark, another youngster, who defeated several cracks. Clark defeated W. J. Travis in the semi-finals and Holiis defeated Foxhall Keene.

In the final Hollls was dormy two at the seventeenth tee, but he tied the score by making both holes and then won the extra hole the thirty-seventh. The full score was 17C to 186. COURSING Between two and three thousand people were in attendance at the coursing at ArricultUTal Park yesterday, and the sport was excellent. There were a few unjust andi uncalled for kicks In the courses run by the little crack-a-jack Orpheum Lass. Tha course between the Lass and' Stella called forth the greatest protest, and for the enlightenment of the public, who did not understand the alleged cause of complaint, the course ls here given.

Stella led from the slips by two lengths for nearly 2fK) yards, when Orpheum Lass passed her by and took the first and second turns by about three lengths, placing Stella on the hare for the next two turns. Orpheum Lass took the next two turns; then Stella took two turns and made the kill, points being 6 ami 6. After the decision the owner of Stella took his dog from the course, on the ground that the judge had been unfair. It is unfortunate that in all classes of sport there are a few (and equally fortunate lhat they are only a few) people who always want to win. and' raise a row if they are niot allowed to do so.

A word to the judge just here ls not out of place. The practice of deciding a race, or more properly, signaling the decision of a race by pulling a red or white handkerchief out of the pocket is all wrong. The Hag steward should signal the race and tthe judge should make no motions that arc- liable tn be misunderstood hy tho spectators. Let 1 him ride to tho steward and order the Hog or flags up, and then he will save mistakes and trouble. Fleetwood' ran splendidly yesterday under disadvantages.

Little Kitty Scott played ln harder luck than usual. Grazer ran wonderfully well, and Don Orsini made a good showing. ABC did not do his usual work. The Ghost is a great performer, and bids well to make a good-name for his owner, Mr. Kohler, of Pasadena.

WITH THE FIGHTERS Mrs. Robert Fltzsimmons has at last acceeded to the clamors of the public and consented to allow her husband to fight once more, ln order to prove that he is not the LOS ANGELES HERALD: MONDAY MORNING, AUGUST 8, old adage about a pitcher going once too coward soma people have claimed. The aften to the well generally ls more strikingly illustrated with fighters than with any other line of sports. Fltzsimmons has taken excellent care of himself, however, and it is probable that he will prove an exception to this general rule.

The following letter from Mrs. Fltzsimmons was addressed to the New York Journal of recent date: "To the Editor: Robert Fltzsimmons, my husband, may enter the prize ring again and fight one more fight. He shall fight the best man that lives and show the world that he ls not a coward. He shall prove for all time that he can whip the best fighter that the prize ring can produce, and then I hope he will be let alone to enjoy a quiet home life with our babies and me. "Mr.

Fltzsimmons' solemn promise to me never again to enter the ring has.brought down upon him the sneers and jeers and cries of coward. I have felt the shame until I now release him from his promise. He quit the ring for me; he will mow go ln and prove that he is all thai I know him to be. "MRS. ROBERT FITZSIMMONS." Bob Thompson and Ben Lewis, the colored light-weights who are to meet before the Los Angeles Athletic club next Friday night, are training earnestly and will put up a splendid contest.

They are Ihought to be well matched, and Lewis Is said by some of the best judges of boxing to be just the sort of a fighter to give Thompson a hard battle. Ho ls left handed and knows how to use ihat arm ln all ways. Bob Thompson ls probably stronger than Lewis, but not enough to give him any great advantage over the other man. Both are quick, and their fight ought not to last the 15 rounds it is scheduled. It will be lively while in progress, however.

Lewis Is training ay the Athletic club, while Thompson still' sticks tol the Manhattan club. A preliminary arranged for the same evening ls a 111-round go between Billy de Coursey and young Thurman of San Francisco. De Coursey was the boxing instructor at the Athletic club and Is a clever man. Thurman is in his class, and the pair are expected io furnish some excitement. An- 1 ether preliminary which ls looked forward to with much Interest ls a four-round go between Joe Cotton and Billy Gallagher.

Both men have met before, and, though Gallagher had the better of Ihe fight in one Instance, they are so evenly matched as to make any meeting between them a splendid bout. After his unfortunate fight with Bob Armstrong Friday night Jim Jeffries, the Los Angeles giant, wired the Examiner as follows: NEW TORK, August acknowledge that I am after the championship. I am in this profession to get to the top. I mean to an quick as I can and ln the most manly and straightforward manner. I re-1 gret the accident to-night exceedingly.

On acount of It I do not want to say toofmuch of the future or of challenging and accepting challenges. The acoldent, I realize, will not help me with the public; and as I do not wish to lose the estimation in which they may hold me at present, I prefer not to say anything, except that I am sincere ln stating that I am after the champlonshlp, and I am confident thai with clean and hard work it will come to me. I As segards to-night's accident, it In the first round. I landed hard on Armstrong's head with my left, but his head was harder than a rock. I felt something snap, but I hardly realized what It was until I landed with the left again and felt the thrill of pain.

Thpn I knew what was the matter and that It would be almost a miracle if I put my first man out. I cannot say I exerted myself over him at any stage. I had the utmost confident In my ability to knock out both Armstrong and O'Donnell inside the ten rounds allotted to each. That is one reason why I went easy with Armstrong. I had no thought while fighting with him that I would not be able to go on with the second I bout, hut after we got to the dressing room Delaney looked at my arm and Insisted or.

BASEBALL CHAMPIONSHIP There was an excellent attendance yesterday afternoon at Athletic park to wlt- ness the game of baseball between the Trllbys and Bakersfield nine. They played for the colored championship of the state, and the local nine won by the sccreof IS to 10. The game was noticeable for the heavy batting on both sides.

Carroll, the "catcher for the Trllbys, did some splendid work, making a one-handed catch of a hard thrown balll. Nettles did some fast wotk with the bat. Griffin did good work on first base. After the game the Bakersfield nine were entertained at the Manhattan club. Next Sunday the Tellbys will play a team from Santa Ana.

The best race of the day was the last, in which Klatawnh, the sensational California stallion, got away with the first two miles, but went up ln the third and trailed the big Held In. He spoiled three scores in the fourth, and there were indications that he would never get away but finally he got the proper gait and clung to it. From the last position In a Held of fourteen he took the away from Pentland long before the first turn was reached and after that Klatawah was the only horse In the chase, although everybody expected him t6 leave his feet at any moment. WITH THE HUNTERS There Is said to be considerable game In the San Gabriel canyon. Captain Roberts, Clerk Hensley and Patrolman Harris returned last week from the Tehachapl mountains, where they had been on a hunt after bruin.

They had no traps suitable, however, but expect to return there later during the year if possible and try once more for Old Moccasin. They caught a big eagle In one of the traps. A party consisting of John Hauerwaas, Ed Naud, J. H.

Kiefer and Fred Holbrook left last week for a hunt on the Conejo ranch in Ventura county. They drove in a wagon from Los Angeles and were well provided for all variety of game.

Motorman Disappears A bad accident occurred at the corner of Tenth and Hill streets yesterday afternoon shortly berore 3 o'clock, when a Santa Monica electric car collided with a University car. Both were knocked off the track and a number of the pasengers on the University car thrown to the ground. One of them, Miss Florence Gilbert, received Injuries which are thought to be very serious.

The blame of the affair lies with the Santa Monica company, but from the statements of the superintendent, W. Larrasee, it was not the entire fault of the motorman, tha I braking gear of the car being out of order. The University line has the right of way at that point and car No. 174 of that line of which Charles Brltton was motorman and Wlliam Collier conductor, east bound, started across the tracks of the Santa Manlea llnei as usual, going at a moderate of speed. Car No.

74 of the Santa Monica line was approaching at the same time, bound for Santa Monica. There was a trailer on the heavy car and as It was going at a fair rate of speed, the train bore down rapidly onto the University car. Motorman E. Anderson of the Santa Monica car saw the other car passing and applied tha brakes to bring his train to a standstill and prevent an accident. To his dismay he discovered that the wires governing th' brake had got out of order ln some manner and were short circuited, preventing brake from being applied with its force.

The street had also been freshly sprinkled and the wheels slipped and sent the heavy Santa Monica cars crashing into the rear platform of the University car. There were several passengers aboard the I latter car and all tried to get away as soon as they saw a collision was inevitable. On the opposite seat on the rear end was Miss Gilbert, who was on her way from the house of H. A. Wright at 1016 West Thirtyeight street, where she is employed, tf I visit her mother at 13G0 East Twenty-third street.

The force of the collision knocked her from the car fully ten feet. She struck upon her left side, also hitting the groun.l with tha left side of her head. Several other women passengers were knocked off the car, but they were not hurt beyond being badly scared. Miss Gilbert was rendered partially unconscious and was carried into the house of George F. Valient at 228 West Tenth street and later removed to her mother's home.

All the passenger, were shaken up more or less, but none reported Injuries. The front of the Santv Monica car was broken' In. while the University car was badly damaged. There was a blockade for over an hour before the cars could be got on the tracks and started. The exact extent of Miss Gilbert's injuries could not be learned last night.

Besides being terribly bruised she sustained an abrasion over the left eye. It is thought tha her skull may have been from the blow which caused the abraslo" For some reason E. Anderson, the motorman of the Santa Monica car, disappeared Immediately after the collision, leaving the conductor lo attend to the business of the wreck. No motive ls known for Anderson's unusual act, unless he feared that the people would hold him responsible for the accident and attempt to offer him bodily Injury.

On the contrary, if she from weakness or disease of the dUtinctly feminine If she rides, at all. such exercise should be very sparingly Indulged In.

It is the health of these delicate and new portant parts that "makes the wheels of general health go round."
