Horses Carrying the Familiar Eed With Green Cap Finish in Front at Good Odds in Three Events. Master Miles Proves Himself to Be a Very Capable Jockey Knight of the Garter Buns Kindly for Landry, Practice at Charlotte Already Working Wonders for the ChampionsSore Muscles the Rule Pitcher Donovan a Fiend for Work McCann Has a Game Leg Kennedy Accidentally Hit the New Man With a Bat, Consequently his price was the almost prohibitive one of 1 to 6 at the opening of the betting. The sure thing players, however, soon drove his price down to 1 to fl, many a possessor of a fat roll betting $90 to win $10, 'just for car fare." After the race their comments were interesting, but unprintable. No fault could be found with the start, for it was perfect. Master Miles, on Carroll at once shot his mount to the front, and, rounding the far turn, he had a lead of several lengths.

Tod Walsh, on the favorite, was rather slow in getting the colt in his stride, while the other two starters wero outrun. When the stretch was reached Carroll had a lead of four lengths, with Dolce far Nlente second and Walt a MInute a length back. A furlong from the finish the leader began to shorten his stride and both of his nearest attendants passed him. They were all in the deep going, however, and it was at this point that Miles saved the day for his backers. With a colt willing to lie down, so tired was he.

Miles shot over the outside rail, the only place on the track where the going was good. With firm footing under him, Carroll came again, and. with Miles' right foot over the rail, so close was he to the fence, he Just got up in time to win by the shortest of heads. A nose was really his winning margin. Dolce far Nlente was second, a like dis tence in front of Wait a Minute.

Had the riders of the latter two horses followed Miles' advantage, they would have both beaten oarron u. ine latter did not run unbacked. None of Daly's horses do at Bennings and many a $2 bet found its way into the ring ou the son of Hastings and Toscana. Miles rode the favorite. Draughtsman, in the following race, but was unplaced at the finish, Daly's other Jockey.

Brennan, winning with Matt Simpson, who was at 10 to 1. It was a driving finish and Matt Simpson only got up in the final strides in time to snatch the victory away from Brennan rode a well Judged race and put up a strong finish. Ginki's victory was in the seven furlong race for maiden 3 yearblds and upward. This race was also won by superior riding, tactics on the part of Mickey Miles. Albert Edward was far and away the best horse in the race, but Booker could not finish with Miles and Ginki, whipped out, won by less than half a length.

For five furlough Miles was at the whip, but his mount was so sluggish that bis backers gave up all thought of his winning. In the last furlong, Ginki got to running and he picked up his field one by one. with Miles flaying with the catgut in awful fashion. It will be a long time before Ginki forgets the beating he received and it is certain that he cherishes far from the best of feeling for Miles. The racing, ac a whole yesterday, was fair.

Contrasted with the previous day's parody on the "sport of kings," it was good. Scorpio won the opening dash in a hard drive from Lexington The latter should have won, but Landry put up a more vigorous finish than Wonderly, and the Goughacre stable's representative secured the verdict. Charley Moore was the favorite at pest time, but bis races over a distance of ground have evidently taken the speed out of him, and he was outrun the whoie journey. He (Special to the Eagle.)

April 5 Balmy spring weather now favors the Brooklyn base ball team, and if it continues during the rest of the stay here, the boys will he ready start the season in championship form. The Brooklyn players put in four good hours' work on the diamond esterday, and, after a run of a mile and a half down lo town, followed by cold shower baths, they felt like new men. Some of them nro a bit sore to day, but this Is only natural, and will wear off before Monday. Tbe grounds are now in good shape, and the players show lots of speed in moving around. The practice yesterday was confined principally to batting.

Kennedy. Mc GOLF AT DEAL BEACH. Many Players Already "Visiting the Charming Shore Links. The beautiful golf links bordering picturesque Deal Lake presented a scene last Sunday not usually expected at the shore golf clubs in March. A large number of players dotted the links, which, having been tenderly cared for all winter, are in remarkably fine condition for early spring play.

Quito a few of the players had gone down for a preliminary glimpse of their summer homes, and some put up over Saturday at the Country Club. The Golf Club home, in its setting of pines, with open fires cheerfully blazing In the broad fireplaces, invited many to rest in its cozy Interior.

jjChats With the Crack Trap Shooters 1 on the First Day of the Grand cm 51 American. Handicap at Inter i5 state Park Dr. Ashley A. It Webber of This. Borough a Conspicuous Absentee in Big Events Was Probably Dissatis flad With His SS Handicap.

5 AO Phil. Daly. had the worst kind SJ of hoodoo luck In the Grand American SS 8 handicap yesterday. He was No. 13 on the shooting; list, and that seemed to jj worry him.

However, he grassed 12 jJ straight, but when ho went up for the thirteenth round, he made a clean S5 miss. After that he again killed straigUL uuiii uie snounuft aiuiijJcu mi So tho day. Ki ss SS Dr. Ashley A. Webber, entered under the name of Dr.

Casey, and No. 6 on the shooting list, was one of those who jjjj failed to put in an appearance yester No one could positively account for SS his absence, but It is possible that the SS 2 handicap of 30 yards did not suit him. ij According to Paul North, the team jjjS race between ten representative Ameri 5 cans and ten English shooters will 5 1 1" stead of targets. At either style of fc nitric la uu iiuuku uul iiiut lhc ninerican team, as seiecieu, ran ueiuui. 8 St" any ten men in the United Kingdom.

SJ One of the visitors at Interstate Park SS yesterday was Ralph Waldo Trine, president of the Boston Society for the 1 Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, and JJ a member of the American Humanl sj IJ tarlan Society. He wns accompanied Sj by a woman who took as much interest I in the contest as Mr. Trine did. The 8 latter said that he was satisfied that the law was being complied with as near as gj possible, but he hoped that all wounded birds would be killed as soon as cap SS tured. Any one that ever witnessed a trap shooting match knows that that Si is done as soon as possible.

8 uir. trine naa a long taiK wnn uincer jj Gay of the New York Society for the JJ Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. One si shooter, a Western man, asked Mr. gg Trine: "Do you think this as cruel as field shooting?" Mr. Trine replied that he could not say, but that he did not 5 believe in any such sport.

Then he I was asked whether he didn't think It gj cruel to hook a bass, and hs replied ft SS that he "was not a fisherman." His visit, however, did not dampen the ar 52 dor of the shooters, even if the rain Jig did, and the boys didn't care a rap whether he remained on the grounds Js or not. jfe Chris W. Feigenspan, the Brooklyn i SSD. Eagle champion, was one of those forty shooters who killed twenty 2 straight in the big event. "Feigey" has put aside his repeating shotgun; and Is using a double barrel.

All the fe especially those from New ark. are. rooting for him. and, should he win out the shooters from the ap Hs ple jacK state will no doubt have a So good time. jS st if Bobby Welch, the winner of the first, jjj oi Grand American handicap, was at the grounds yesterday, but did not shoot.

tjjt Welch is a member of the Carteret Gun SS Club, and the new rule of that orgapi zation, which went into effect on Feb of jjjj ruary 15 last, forbidding Its members from shooting in professional company, 5 has no doubt had its effect on Bobby, HARLEM AND THE BRONX. The transformation of a restaurani to a Turkish bath is a big one, but Frederick Hollender is about to make the change with his old time cafe In West Ore Hundred and Twenty fifth street, and a gang of workmen has started In to remodel the building. The place is one of the oldest and best known of the kind In Harlem, but. so many others have lately started in the same line that he has determined to get out of the business. Mr.

Hollender figures that the necessary changes and the cost of furnishing the new establishment will be about $100,000. and expects to have the venture in running order about July 1. Many conflicting rumors have been put in circulation concerning the origin of tho recent (ire In the Prospect Avenue Methodist' Episcopal Church, One Hundred and Sixty first street and Prospect avenue, which did about $1,500 damage. The names were discovered by a policeman, but their origin is unknown. The building and furniture, which were owned by the New York City Church Extonsion and Missionary Society, were fully insured.

The interior of the building was almost entirely destroyed. The fire is supposed to have been the work, of a gang of hoodlums which have given some troublo lately to the residents of tho neighborhood.

April 5 Father BUI IVly's horses, at odds on, and the same distinguished gentleman's entries, when at a respectable price, are altogether different creatures. Is it possible that the one legged turlman is ir. the possession of some mysterious fluid, which, when' administered, is far reaching in its effect? Odds on favorites are best given a wide berth under any circumstances, but an odds on favorite from the stable of Mr. Daly is a more than doubtful betting proposition. Yesterday three candidates from the Daly stable They were Carroll who was at "0 to'l; Matt Simpson, who was quoted at 10 to 1, and Ginki, whose price was 5 to 2.

With the exception of they were not thought to have a chance, but, nevertheless, they all won. It was like old times to see the red, with green cap, flash past the Judges' stand in the van. It has been a long time since three of the Daly horses have gathered in three purses in a single None of them was at odds on. however. The victory of Carroll In the maiden race for two year olds was due' mere to the sa gacity of Miles than to superiority of speed on the part of the baby racer.

There were only four starters, Alfred Hennan and David Morris' colt Dolce far Nlente being regarded as so much the best of his opponents that his victory was regarded as certain. RUHLIN AND JEFFRIES Ar rftng Another Match Madden Agrees to Let the Champion Name the Date. St. Louis, April 5 Billy Madden.

The fighters will split the purse on a basis of 75 per cent, to the winner and 25 to the loser. The men will sign the same articles of agreement that were drawn up for the contemplated battle recently at Cincinnati. Madden agreed to permit Jeffries to name the date, because the champion has a bad knee, which he injure 1 while for his last jnatch with Ruhlin.

He will hot fight until he gets over this trouble. Jeffries thought hie knee would be all right again. as soon as he. got a chance to tako a short rest. for the big fight are expecte.l from California and possibly from Connecticut.

If the report be true, and there seems to se no reason why it should not. be, the American League has again suffered a severe loss. Sheckard has all along asserted that he would be with Brooklyn, and McGraw has claimed that he would not. McGraw gave out that he was, with McGinnlty, a red hot American Leaguer. "Word is received from Baltimore which is as funny as it is ridiculous.

McGraw. with great gusto, announced thit Sheckard's shoes arrived at the Baltimore club yesterday, and that that fact settles the question where the speedy fielder Is going to play. It in very probable that Ned Hanlon depends more on the presence of the man than on his shoes. Both parties, howe. er.

seem satisfied with tho state of affairs. Nothing has been heard at Charlotte about Sheckard, but that, player told Haniori he would report at Charlotte, and he Is probably doing so quietly. Once with the Brooklyn team, it would be hard to got Sheclcard away again. BLACKBURNE BACKS OUT. Captain of the British Cable Chess Team Declines to Participate in Match.

A special cable dispatch to hand from London yesterday contained the rather startling Information that J. II. Blackburne, the professional chess champion of England, had written to the British Chess Club to the effect that he would not be available for this year's team in the international cable chess match W'ith this country. No special reason as to why he had taken this step was mentioned in the dispatch and followers of the game on this side can only surmise why the captain of the Britishers, who has heretofore been the backbone of the team, should thus unexpectedly step out at the very last moment. His action is the more inexplicable when it is considered that he was only recently the beneficiary of a handsome testimonial at the hands of tho British chess playing public, and In the raising ot which the British Chess Club played such a consplcMour, part.

It is thought here that Blackburns will probably be persuaded to reconsider his decision and again take his accustomed place at the head of his team. Should he not do so, the chances of Great Britain winning this time will be decidedly slim, for Blackburne has heretofore been the only reliable standby whom the Englishmen could depend upon. On each of the five previous occasionu he ha.3 been pitted against the American champion, rmsDury, witnout once being defeated. C. S.

Howell and A. .1. Souwein) of the Brooklyn Chess Club have contested the first of the series of games they are to play to decide who is to act as the first substituto on the American team, the result being in favor of Howell after a lively struggle.

Hanlon, when in Brooklyn said that he would play Kelley at first, Daly and Dahlen at second and short and Gatins at third. This programme has been carried out at Charlotte and reports show that the field is working like clockwork. Gatins has shown himself capable of filling Cross' shoes to the satisfaction of Hanlon. The outfield, even without Sheckard. has proven that it is good enough to satisfy Hanlon, and that means the Brooklyn cranks.

Lee Demontreville, brother of Gene, last year's Brooklyn infielder, has been signed to play with Boston. Selee has taken a fancy to the player and will use him as a utility man. He is said to be nearly as good as his brother, and as a batsman (a southpaw) he will be of value, as he excels in stick work. There is no doubt that Hanlon is sorry that ne let uene go, lor he was a splendid player. Hanlon has suspected that some of his stnndbys would go back on him he would have held Demontreville.

Such things happen, however, to the best of managers. Demontreville is already firmly imbedded in the hearts of the Boston cranks. Discontent over the new rules is already apparent among the base ball players, both tho amateur and professional ranks, and would not be surprising if the National League should declare all but one of the regulations off. FAMOUS SWEDISH SKATEBS. Henning Grenander and Eagnhild Nis sen, Two Unbeaten Champions.

The honor of producing the most brilliant amateur figure skaters of both sexes of the period belongs to Sweden. Mr. Henning Grenander and Ragnhild Nlssen. the two champion skaters, have so nobly upheld the traditions of their native country. Both havj achieved the highest, pinnacle of fame, and neither has ever known what, il was to suffer defeat.

Mr. Grenander was born at Skofde, in 18711, and' in 1SS7 made his first appearance in public by carrying off the first prize in the school competition at Stockholm, which success ho followed up by appropriating first prize In the Junior competitions at various other towns Sweden, until he reached the age of and thus became eligible to compete for tho Swedish and European championships. won the Swedish championship in 1890 and held it until he came to this country as a medical student in 1S97. At the age of 19 he represented Sweden the European championship at Berlin in 1893, and this was bv far his host nrhlevo. mem.

ine competition reduced to a match between him and Bngelmann, the most famous exponent of the Austrian school skating, and who had shown himself far superior to all who had attempted to wrest from him the title of European champion, until he met Mr. Grenander. Both held un beaten records, and the excitement was In tense, for it was in roaiitv a trial of between the Austrian and Swedish schools skating, with the judges predisposed In favor of Austria, consisting, as thev did. of Austrlans. one Hungarian, three Ger mans and only one Swede.

Engeltrymn trusted to the same figures which had pulled him through on many occasions, and over which he had complete mastery, and it was a feather in Grenander's that he literally compelled judges who were unfavorable toward him to give him credit for the strength and grace with which executed the most difficult movements. dash and brilliancy of the Swedish style the steady, quiet, machine like movement of the Austrian school completely in shade, and Grenander was returned the winner. In 1804 he carried off the international championship of Berlin, and then crowned himself with glory by winning the world's figure skating championship in 1S88. The competition was held in London, and was graced the presence of his majesty the King, then the Prince of Wales, who is ever ready to countenance all kinds of manly sport. Miss Xissen is a wonderful figure skater, little, if at all, the inferior of Mr.

Grenander, though her repertoire is necessarily somewhat limited. Her skill and ability no doubt, largely due to the fiot that and Grenander studies the art of skating together and were frequently called upon to exhibitions for the pleasure of King Oscar, tho Crown Prince, and other royalties. Miss N'Isson, as a school girl, won the silver modal ofTerod by tho Stockholm Skating Club 1SS1 for the best lady skater Li Sweden, in fact, whonover she competed for It. 1SD2 she and Mr. Grenander wure awarded gold badge for pair skating and the preis spoke of tno performance as being elegance Itself and highly deserving of the ovation which it occasioned.

It should be mentioned that on his first appearance in Enjland Mr. Grcnar.der wns publicly presented with a itnld moJol and made honorary 1IO inoirher nf the Mati.mal Skating Association, and after winning tho world's charopinnyhip the Swedish Skating awarded hi tho highest honor it could confer, narrc ly. a goid modal with the in scription.

The changes were all in the Pough keepsie and freshman boats, as Ward Is satis fled with the present work of the Henley eight. Hlldebrand, bow in last year's freshman boat, was moved from stroke of the second to stroke of the first Poughkeepsie, and Kel lar, who has been stroking the latter boat ever since the men have been on the water, was put back one to No.

7. Henderson, stroke on last' year's champion four, was shifted from No. 7 lo bow. This necessitated putting Schelber from bow to stroke of the second Poughkeepsie. Schelber stroked his class crew In the fall regatta and Ward has a high opinion of his ability.
