A LARGE ATTENDANCE AT ST. ASAPH. Patrician Wins tbe Handicap and Indra tho Selling ISn.ce. Washington, D. October 25 Notwithstanding the cold threatening weather, 3,000 people attended the Virginia Jockey club races at St.

Asaph track yesterday. Five favorites were home first, and the only outsider to win was Indra, owned by Pittsburg Phil, who was a 12 to 1 shot early in the betting, but toward the close came down to 5 to 1 and 3 to 1, and when he went to the post the betting was 7 to 5. Dick Croker's Flirt was the favorite but she was not within fifteen pounds of her best form. Indra took the lead at the start and was never headed in the six furlong race. The time was 1:16.

In the handicap for three year olds and upward, one mile and a sixteenth, Our Jack was the favorite in the betting at the start; but when a good price was offered against him and Patrician made favorite over him, supporters dropped away rapidly. It was well for them that they did, for through the bad judgment of Griffln on the flrst turn, Our Jack got the sulks and finished last. The race was between Patrician and Captain but Simms managed to land the former on the post by a neck, but it was done under punishment.

The second round of Carruthers' National tournament was ushered in by the Salamander, Adelphi and Waverly teams last night, and bettor scores resulted. The howlers, Individually, gavo evidence of the practice secured In their first garnea, and several high scores and averages were marked on the board after the series ivere concluded. Honors were easy on the night, each side scoring a victory and a defeat. The Salamanders and Adelphis lost their first games In the competition. President Harrison and his Waverly bowlers put up two excellent games and should have won both.

Despite the inclement weather a fair attendance of spectators was present. The visitors wore well repaid for their loyalty. The first contest was between the Salamanders, champions of South Brooklyn, and the Waverlys, the Bushwick cracks. They made a close race of it. The Waverlys made a poor start, but finished in great form, having but two breaks in the last five frames.

They bowled frames 7. 9 ad 10 clean. On the other hand, the Salamanders started well and finished steadily, winning by 15 pins. They rolled the first and third frames without a break. Sorenson, perhaps the youngest and lightest bowler in the tournament, again led the Salamanders, securing 177 off four strikes and as many spares.

His two breaks were on splits, which came together in the fourth and fifth frames. One, a 60 10 affair, he almost solved, but a 4 7 10 divide was too much for him. He finished with a clean record, winding up with a strike and 10. Allen and Schaefor rolled an even game, each securing 169. Alien did not mect a split through Out, while Schaefer had one, a 5 7 problem, which he converted into a spare amid great applause, lichtenstein, he of the mighty delivery, piled up 161 after completing the fifth frame with 94 to his credit.

A 6 7 split in the second laid him low. He was the only Salamander to break on the tenth frame. Longheed got 164 by some clever spare work. His two breaks were splits, a 6 9 10 in the fourth and an it 10 in the seventh. He solved neither.

For the Waverlys Captain Harrison put up a fine score of 181, one break on a 5 7 split spoiling a clean record. He converted a 3 10 split into a spare amid cheers. Seaton rolled a good second, getting ITS by a great finish of a triple header and 8 on the last three frames. Three splits, a 4 6 7 10, a 4 7 and a 3 10 were his only breaks. Livingston secured 165, mostly on spares.

He had two breaks, one on a 6 10 divide. Langdon and Esyuirol rolled even ten pins for 143 and 14s respectively. Langdon solved two splits, a 2 I 7 angle in the fifth and a 3 1 0 10 puzzler in the ninth. Bsquirol had 4one split among his four breaks, a 6 10 bridge, that he could not overcome.

Two eastern district rivals, the WaverlyB and Adelphis, faced each other in the second game. Big scores were looked for from the Adelphis, who hold the record of 87S to date. They were not forthcoming, however, the Waverlys winning easily by 72 pins. Seaton led his men a fast pace with the handsome total of 195, the highest of the night. He began with a miss on an easy leave, but followed with a triple header.

Another double strike later, with a spare and 10 as a wind up, made his score possible. Langdon piled up 171 pins, despite three splits, a 47 10 in the first frame, a 4 6 7 10 in the fifth and a 310 in the eighth. The latter he converted into a spare. Captain Harrison was a strong third, with 169, despite four breaks. He went down on an 8 10 and a 4 6 10 split, but solved a 3 10 divide.

Livingston did not meet a split in his 152, but missed four spares. Esquirol had a 4 6 7 10 split among his five breaks for 144. Gaynor led the Adelphis in good style, rolling his first seven frames clean. He missed on the eighth and fell down on an 8 9 divide. His total was 175.

DeForrest's 174 came from two strikes and six spares, his two breaks resulting from bad misses. Hoiser did not face a split in his 144, while four splits held Gillespie down to 136. Williams was unfortunate, six misses, including a 6 10 split, giving him the bad score of 320. The summary follows: Waverly. 1 Adelphi.

Buffalo. N. October 25 If Tom Bck and a select party of bicyclists who were out on the Tonawanda boulevard yesterday are to be believed John S. Johnson, the racing man, went a mile straight away paced by a quadruplet in the marvelous timo of 1:35 2 5. Eck has been for several days with tho Stearns' team.

He brought Johnson here to try for the mile straight away over this pavement, which Is as smooth as a parlor floor. Johnson tried Tuesday, but punctured his tire twice and quit. To day. with a fow local bicyclists, the party went out, and Johnson was successful in getting away all right. The course is straight and has been carefully measured, but there is a steep fall for an eighth of a mile at the finish.

Tho timers were T. J. Sayles of Buffalo and Frank Mayo of the Stearns' team at the start, T. W. Eck at tho first quarter, A.

D. Kennedy and P. Sheehan of Buffalo at the he If, C. M. Murphy, the racer, and H.

R. Stevenson at the three quarters and W. Stark, W. O. Lutz and B.

Van Velsor, all of Buffalo at the finish. The quadruplet was ridden by C. H. Callahan, H. H.

Seavey, Pat O'Connor and W. A. Rhodes. The time by quarters was: Firse quarter, 21 2 5 seconds; second quarter, 25 2 5 seconds; third quarter, 25 seconds, and fourth quarter, 23 3 5 seconds. Electric timers were used and it is claimed that there can be no mistake and that Johnson actually went the fastest mile ever ridden by a human being.

The time said to he made is one tenth of a second better than the best record for a running horse. Salvator holds the world's record at 1:35. BLiiowle' JLong Hide finished. John C. Knowles, or Jack Centurion Kuowles, as he has come to be known, finished his long ride of 6,000 miles yesterday, having ridden 100 miles a day for sixty days.

He has been out in every kind of weather and ridden through some storms that were the worst known on Long Island in several years. The endurance and pluck he displayed in sticking to his task and completing the undertaking have been marvelous. Knowing the trials of the task, which, while made light of by himself, would not and could not bo endured by another man in a thousand, Knowles has no fear but what the record he has made will stand until he is ready to break it himself. He says that when he is ready he can cover 200 consecutive centuries. Knowles' feat Is the more remarkable because he is considerably past the time of life when it is popularly supposed that a man is at his best in athletics.

Mr. Knowles is a little past 40 years of age, and one of his objects in undertaking his long ride was to show that he is as good an athlete, with as much staying power, as ever. He is satisfied that he has proved his claim and he attributes it to the fact that he has always kept himself in condition. He has been identified with sports and athletics in Brooklyn for more than twenty years and has never let himself grow rusty. The long ride was finished at a little after 5 o'clock last night and, when he rode up to the door of the Kings County Wheelmen's club house, on Bedford avenue, his fellow members gave him a rousing reception.

The actual riding time of his sixtieth century was 0 hours and 25 minutes. Mr. Knowles went through a deal of handshaking and, after a big meal and a rub down, sat about and chatted until 9:30, when he went to bed. He said he was feeling splendidly and had gained nine and one half pounds during hia ride. The actual riding time for each 100 miles of the sixty days is as follows: Date.

Maxwell, superintendent of public instruction, whose name appears to day as a contributor to the Pathway fund, is an enthusiastic bicyclist. There are many others in the public schools, who have yet to be heard from. Work on the path has been progressing finely. The dressing has been put on for more than half of the distance, and that much of the wheelman's way to Coney Island is safe from the inroads of winter. Every clear day has seen hundreds of riders going over it, and they have found it even In its incompleted condition a source of great comfort and delight.

The surface is not yet in the condition In which it Is eventually to appear, but the main thing is to get the first layers of stone on so that the earth will be protected from the winter storms. On the part where the stone is laid the rains are simply turning the limestone into a concrete mass and making the road better. Only a few weeks remain in which it will be possible to work, and about $700 Is needed yet. There are hundreds who have not contributed, and they should hasten to send in their money and close the matter. South Hrooklyn Century ICtiu.

The Weather Hnd No Terrors for tho' Plucky Young Collusions Chauncey's Eighty Yard Run One of tho Features of the Doy Frince ton Toys With Lehigh Other Games.

Despite the incessant rain of yesterday afternoon twenty two plucky youths, representing respectively the foot ball teams of Yale's freshmen class and the Polytechnic Institute, lined up at Eastern park. In mud up to tho ankles and besoaked with the rain thoy valiantly chased: the pigskin through the rivulets and lakelets which formed during the game. But this did not phase the doughty collegians, who maintain that a foot ball game should be played in spite of contrary elements and should not be postponed for rain, hail, cyclones or earthquakes. The teams lined up at 3:46. Poly started off with the ball, Slocovich kicking low to Chauncey, who muffed it, and Badger secured it for Poly.

For the next three minutes the Poly "boys moved steadily toward Yale's goal through gains by Slocovich, Moore and Jones and carried the ball inside Yale's five yard line, where there was a bad fumble, caused by Yale's center breaking through after the ball was snapped back. The Yalensians now started, the ball toward Poly's goal, gain upon gain being made round Poly's ends and through tackles and guards, when, after five minutes' play, Morris carried the ball over the line for Yale's first touchdown. Betta missed the goal. Shortly after the teams had lined up Yale gained the ball on her thirty yard line and Chauncey went through Poly's right tackle and end, making a splendid run of eighty yards for the second touchdown.

Yale's freshmen seemed to have no difficulty in holding the Poly line and gained the ball on downs once more, traveling over the field to Poly's goal In seventeen minutes. Hale scored the third touchdown and Betta kicked the goal. Score: Yale, 16; Poly, 0. When the boys had rested a few minutes, play was resumed. In this half the Poly lino played somewhat stronger than at first and Yale was held down to one touchdown by Mc Crea, which was really a safety for Poly.

The remainder of the half was uninterestingly and listlessly played by both sides, and the game ended with the final score: Yale, 20; Poly. 0. Tho teams lined up as follows: Poly. Positions. Yale, '08.

The Princeton eleven defeated the strong Lehigh team at the former's grounds yesterday in a sharp game, with the score of 32 to 0. The Lehigh team was somewhat crippled by their recent hard games, and were unable to do anything with the Tigers' powerful rush line, which forced Its lighter opponents back repeatedly and gained the ball on downs. Lehigh started off with the ball, but in three minutes the Tigers had gained the ball and pushed Beef Wheeler over the line for a touchdown, Trenchard kicking the goal.

Nelson Poe was played at quarter and distinguished himself by his superb tackling and running and made a splendid showing in the interference. Edwards and Budd collided in a scrimmage and were carried from the field, Andni3 and Bacerra taking their places. Princeton loBt the ball on the third down and Lehigh made short gains through the center. Fitzgerald kicked to Reiter, who fell in behind strong interference and advanced the pigskin thirty five yards. Two minutes later Barnett went around the right end for the, third touchdown.

After the lineup Poe caught the kick and gained twenty yards. Barnett followed with a clean run of twenty yards. Wheeler failed to gain on the third down and' the ball went to Lehigh on her 10 yard line. Lehigh's kick was blocked and Church fell on it behind her goal line. Trenchard kicked the goal.

This ended the scoring for this half, although Princeton twice had the ball on Lehigh's 10 yard mark. Score: Princeton, 24; Lehigh, 0. In the second half the ball was kept well in the center of the field most of the time. Princeton repeatedly lost an opportunity to score by holding. Barnett went around the right end behind good interference for the fifth touchdown.

A. team and playod a hard fought game lasting forty minutes, Yale winning by 23 to 0. Many of the visitors were old Harvard play era, and put up a fierce game against their old rivals. Yale played an open game repeatedly, kicking and forcing the Bostonians to buck their center, which more often resulted in losses for Boston than gains. But terworth's long runs and.

punting were the features of the game, and, together with De Witt and Wade redeemed the poor line playing by making good gains around the ends. The Bostonians played a surprisingly strong game on the defensive, but at no time did they menace the Yale goal. Borden sustained a broken collar bone and Ericsson was ruled off for slugging. For Boston Dearborn and Slugger Mason played the best game and worried the Yalensians throughout the game. In the second half Dater, the oarsman, was substituted for McCrea, who had been an easy mark for the Bostonians.

After five minutes of play in the second half But terworth kicked a pretty goal from the twenty yard line, and three minutes later scored a touchdown. The final score was: Yale, 23; Boston, 0. The teams lined up as follows: Yule. Positions. Boston A.

Rlonda, Joseph Bradley. Cbcss Notes. Halpern and Jasnogrodsky seem destined to bring up the rear. Showalter's win from Jasnogrodsky is the moat brilliant that has bo far occurred. Stelnltz Is a strong favorite for first place in th international tourney In New York.

That draw with the ex champlon on Saturday was a big feather in Eddie Hymes' cap. Dr. W. R. I.

Dalton, late of the Manhattan club, has joined the Brooklyn Chess club. Paterson has offered Friday, November 23, for the flrst round of the match with the Brooklyn Young Men's Christian association. Samuel Loyd solved the knight's tour problem, given elsewhere, in slxty slx moves inside of five minutes. The tour itself takes sixty four moves. Bishop Jaokson of Montgomery, is a regular visitor to the Union Square hotel and takes much Interest in the doing of the chess masters.

A triangular tournament Is on In Newark between Messrs. Greenberg, Benner and Drlscoll, the ilrst named leading with a clean score ot four wins. The challenge of tho local Young Men's Christian association for a team match has been accepted by the Staten Island club and same will occur during November. Two of the Newark club's strongest player. Lisaner and L.

Bernstein, are engaged in a matoh. The flrst game was a draw, the second going to Lissner after seventy five moves. Another solution In fifty moves to Lloyd's souvenir problem has been received. H. E.

Xudeney of London, England, was the successful competitor, who we.s at once rewarded with a prize. Here is a chance for some of the young blood at the Brooklyn Chess club. C. Nugent of the City Chess club. New York, is out with a sweeping challenge to play a match with' any member of the local club.

Ticket tournaments, such as the Brooklyn cluU has had for many years past, are becoming popular. The Evans Chess club of this city and the Newark Chess club have adopted them and the local Young Men's Christian association Is also about to start one. Entries to the championship tournament of the Brooklyn Chess club now number eleven, as follows: J. D. El woll.

Here's a problem: Begin as In an ordinary gams and with one of the knights make a knight's tour; with the laat move of that piece, that Is, when he returns home, give checkmate to the opposing king. Other pieces may at any time be moved. How many moves? This Is tbe Time for Politicians to Stick To the Bboohxth JSaqle Almanac.

Sot Pleasant Trulninjr Weather for the Sea. Slilc Slare. Lavigne, Hogan, Lyons and Madden had a rather interesting time yesterday at the training quarters of the Seaside Athletic club, where they did their day's work on account of the inclemency of the weather. They all seom to feel that weather or no weather they cannot afford to lose an hour's regular training, so fully are they all convinced that the Fight of their life Is before them. It was Interesting, and at times highly amusing, to watch Hogan and Lyons weigh other up at work.

They watched one another at work as a cat watches a mouse, striving to discover some weak point which might be taken advantage of on Monday next. Each has expressed himself as having a high respect for tho prowess of the other, in spite of the fact that they are and have been for some time at swords' points personally. Griffin will arrive at Coney Island from Hartford on Sunday and take up his quarters at Stubenbord's. He will be trained up to tho hour and will only take warming up exorcise on Monday. Gates will come over from Newark Monday morning on feather edge.

In these contests the fighters will confront a new referee in the person of Jim Hurst, the base ball umpire, who has been engaged by the club to fill that, place. Hurst is a man of good reputation and is well known in tho baso ball world as a fair and impartial judge of knotty points in the national game. He is from the West, and there he gained his knowledge of ring affairs. He has in that section of the country frequently officiated as a referee and always satisfactorily. He understands the game and Is expected to take a front rank among the men in this country who are regarded as first class judges of box ing contests.

One of the novelties of the evening will be a departure from thfi regular rule of the club by introducing a fifteen round go in tho Griflln Lavigne bout, instead of the usual ten rounds. This is an experiment and will probably prove successful, so far as raising public Interest In the bout, and bring I' nearer, in point of time, at least, to a finish fight. It will give the men much greater op portunitj" t'i their endurance and will, if anything, abrogate brutality, while it will not detract from the general interest. MCSEIi.lL SPOKTI5G SOTES.

The league legislators, in looking around for a man to take charge of the racing interests in the event of Gideon's refusal, claim that Henry W. Koliinson of Massachusetts would fill the bill. Kobinson has been a member of the national board since last February, and his management of racing matters in Massachusetts has met with the approval of the league officials. Kobinson has been ohalrman of his state racing board, and is looked upon as a olear beaded legislator. "Wheeling Notes.

With few exceptions all the so called champion trap shooters of the country were at Dexter park yesterday, either to look on or to participate in the live bird handicap, the final event in the Emerald Gun club tournament. There were fifty one entries, as many aB there were in the Grand American handicap last March, and of the big fellows only Fulford, Elliott and Kleinz were missing.

Captain John Brewer was there and so were Frank Class, Fletcher Walters, Robert A. Welch, who won the' American handicap last year, and Tom Morfey, who won it this year; Captain A. W. Money, Ferdinand Vandyke, H. G.

Wheeler, T. W. Wright and Captain Mascroft, while Brooklyn's champions Included Cornelius Furgueson, R. Z. Phisterjr.

G. Knowlton, W. F. Quimby, "Sliver King" Edgerton and William Lair. Of course "Wanda" (Mrs.

M. G. Lindsley) was there and after killing seven birds straight she missed four and was out of the race. Conny Furgueson, the 11 year old wonder, was also off in his shooting, but it appeared that he managed to get all the hard birds. The boy missed four in seven, one dead out of bounds.

For five long hours the men shot in a driving rain that blew directly in their faces.mak lng to hard to see the birds, but the score will show that some good work was done. After the eleventh round was finished the shooting was stopped and the handicap will be finished to day. The contest was at twenty five birds each, twenty five to thirty two yards rise, with an approximate eighty yard boundary. Amer can association rules prevalled.that is allowing a shooter to hold his gun in any position. The stakes, with $100 added, formed four moneys, class shooting, a man missing tour birds to drop out of the race.

The flrst fifteen birds, with an extra $5 entrance fee, formed another event, the money to go to the best three guns. The score: nme. Yards rise. Birds. John L.
