ARGENTA'S CANTER FOR A STAKE
Pat Dunne's Enthusiast Sent theCrowd Home Happy by Fin-
ishing in Front.
By the looks of the Bay District trackyesterday that portion of the sportively in-clined inhabitants who do not appreciate
college yells and rooting must have at-tended the races, for the grand stands,
balconies ana betting ring were faiily
alive with peode. Ana it was a regularholiday betting crowd, ready to take achance on anything from a 200 to 1shot toa 1to 3 favorite.
The legal turf advisers were out in fullforce'vvith their lariats, lassoing and in-itiating the unsophisticated with the in-tricacies of form playing, and wtiya horsethat runs last one day should not win thenext.
Liberal scratching reduced the fields tofew starters, much smaller in fact than thebookmakers like to see on a holiday, foron those days they figure on getting agoodly amount of "lamb" play on horsesthat have but a Louisiana lottery chanceof winning.
Contrary to the usual holiday order itwes a splendid day for favorites, first orsecond choice getting tho verdict in everyrace.
The special feature of the day's racingwas the Richmond stakes for three-year-olds, won by the Eastern horse Motor, andthe Winter hurdle stakes, which drew outbut three horses and ended in an easy vic-tory for Louis Ezell's Araenta.
A. heavy foe rolled in after the fourthrace had been run, and tbe crowd hadgreat sport calling imaginary positions ofthe runners in the last two races, whocould not be seen until emerging from tbefog bank an eighth of a mile from the wire.
The mud kicking began with a five and a.half furlong dash for maidens.
When S to 5 was posted against Terra INova the bookmakers were almost swept ;
off the earth, but later a pileof money was Isent inon May McCarthy, and her price
came down from 7 to1 to 7to 5. This sentthe price against Terra Nova up. and atpost time he was quoted 2 to 1. EthelDixon, My Sweetheart, Keene Foxhall,Judge Tarn, Miss Wiiloughby, Ontario andCoquette comnieted a joblot.
Eddie Jones jumped out in front withTerra Nova as the flag fell, opening up agap of eight lengths, May McCarthy sec-ond. Ethel Dixon in third place. Thesewere the positions into the stretch and tothe finish. Terra Nova tiling badly, onlybeat May McCarthy out a length at thewire. Ethel Dixon was apoor third. Time,1:12. Judge Tarn finished last, about one-eighth of a mile away.
The two-year-old handicap was a bad"twister" for the talent, ending in the de-feat of will-win-a-block favorite MissClay filly,who went to the post 7 to10.She seemed unable to get a footing in thesticky going and ran as though on rollerskates. Playful, who ran a poor race onTuesday, and Roma were each at 4 to 1In the betting.
Dick Ledgett's Niagara had 7 to 1agaiu6t him, while Find Out was the out-sider at JO to 1.
Niagara showed as the flagdropped, butwas immediately passed by the favoriteand Playful, who ran well together to thehead of the stretch, the Daughter of Dare-bin stumbling repeatedly. When straight-ened for home Playful took command andcame in an easy winner by two lengths,Niagara passing the favorite below thedrawgate, getting the nlace by a length.The run was made in 1:20%.'•\u25a0 The favorite. Motor, romped in for tbe.Richmond stakes, a selling affair for three-year-olds, six furlongs. The oilier starterswere: Hymn, Charles A,Seaside, Tillie S,Expense, Catch 'Em, Polaski and BorderLassie. A strong tip went the rounds onCharles A and his price came down from15 to 6to 1. Polaski was well backed onhis former runs, but was never prominentin the race. The favorite's chances wereconsidered so rosy that very comfortableodds could be bad against all others in thera*-e.
Hymn, Tillie S and Motor got away infront of the bunch. Motor leading Hymnby half a length at the half. Expense inthird place, and in this order they enteredthe streich, the black colt Charles Afourth,looming up dangerously. Hymn sooncried quits and fell out of it, and CharlesA passing Expense set sail for Motor, bnl!the latter fairly ate the mud upand skipped Iin the easiest of winners by three lengths, jCharles A the same distance ahead of Ex-pense. Time, 1:1714.
The Winter hurdle stakes, one mile and ja quarter, turned out a very tame affair,all scratching out but Araenta, who was a1to 3 shot in tbe betting. Ingot and the oldcripple, Cuchara.
Argeuta delayed the start some time, !and it took some rather forcible argument jto convince him that he was supposed torun. But he finally broke, taking the lead,which he held all the way, winning in ahop, step and a jump manner by threelengths. Ingot, the third choice, beatingCuchara twenty lengths for the place.Time. 2:31!,.
There was another small field for themile handicap. Artist. Pescador, Quirt andDuke Stevens being the only starters.Artist was a 2 to 5 favorite, but itwas nosnap for him, as Quirt made him extendMo-self at the linisn.
When the flag fell Artist and Duke wentout and raced head and head to the quarter,where tiey ran into a fog-bank and werelost to view, the positions of the horsesnot being discernible again untilan eighthfrom the wire, where Quirt and Artist jweie seen to be racing nearly head andhead, Isom being compelled to shake thefavorite up at the end to win by a neck.The Duke probably sulked after runninga half, as he came in last. Itwas a verygood performance—
Tne day's sport concluded with a seven-furlong selling race for non-winners atthe meeting. The starters were Enthusiast,who was played down to 8 to sat the lastminute, Oakland, the G to 5- favorite.Realization who was well backed, andLawyer, Ricardo, Nellie G, Alexis, bunLuis Rey and Cartnel, outsiders in thebe'tlng.
When the flag fell the horses disappearedin the fog aud were not seen again untilwell into the stretch, when CharleyWeber's form no Enthusiast loomed up infront, and he finished first in a veritableturkey trot iv two lengths from Realiza-tion, the favorite Oakland an indifferentthird. Time, 1:33%.

END OF CRICKET.
Australia Is Beaten bythe World.
Moriarty and Webster Carry Offthe Honors and Sloman Car-
ries His Bat.
The California cricket season, which Is lougerlived than any other In the world, terminatedyesterday with the annual contest of Australiaagainst the World. In spite of the recentheavy showers, the Kllnknerville ground waslv very fair condition, and the ideal weathermade everyone lorget the (for cricket) very latedate.
Both teams lacked their full complement ofplayers, but they made op with patriotismwhat they lacked numerically. The Aus-tralians were the first to bat ana put in twoable representatives of the Alamedas. Hogueand Slomau. When Hie former fella victim to acatch of Reeves he was replaced by the doughtyBilly Robertson, who play-d a very carefulruling of 8 when he played on one oi Griffiths'off bre aks— Weaver and (laidlner both joinedSloman and added 25 to the total, but nobodyelse scored, and the last named carried his batfor33.
Seventy-eight seemed rather a formidablescore for the "World" to face considering thebowling strength against them. But wheuCaptain Webs er ami Moriarty. who went Infirst, slowly but surely ran the score up, andshowed that they had got wen set; all appre-hension vanished, By 4 o'clock they hadbetween them passed the total score of theiropponents, and when the telegraph registeredthe century it was decided to draw stump".Thus were the Australians worsted by 10wickets and 23 runs.

Oakland.— The fight for the speaker-ship oi the Assembly is now on infull blast and Alameda County seems tobe taking a prominent part in it, since sheis furnishing two candidates for the po-sition.
Hon. Clinton G. Dodge, the Assembly-man from the Fifty-first District, seemsjust now to be iv the lead for ihe dace.His opponents, are Assemblyman Lynchof San Bernardino County and Assembly-man-elect Waymlre of Alameda, who will
1represent the Forty-seventh District.Mr. Dodge made an anti-monopoly cam-
paign and on that issue received a hand-some vote. He was in the last Legislatureand accordingly has sufficient parliament-ary practice for the position, and nearlyevery Republican who has been returnedto the Legislature will vote for him forSpeaker. He has made a thorough can-vass and feels confident that he willbeelected.Itis stated that the San Bernardino man
is a corporationist and is being pushed by
the railroad company, and that in order tohelp its man the railroad is pushing for-ward Wayuiire to weaken Dodge, for whom it
has no use.An Oakland politician said yesterday, in
speaking of the mailer: "Dodge is surely Ihebest man for the people, and while Ido notKnow Lynch. Ihear the railroad is for him.Why, a certain person seeking a subordinatepositional Sacramento went to Air.Mills, theSouthern Pacific land agent at Four tb andTownsend streets, the other day and asked himlor his aid. lie told 'he Oak lander that therailroad company was making do fight for |places in Sacramento outside of the speaker; Iship, and that for this position it was torLynch. Aslor Way-lire's candidacy, while he
is a good man. there is no mention ol him out-side of a certain circle. He has not previouslybeen in the Legislature, and while he has |ability,he has not had the parliamentary ex- jperience to handle such a body."
Tlimikiigivlup in Oakland.Yesterday was generally observed in Oakland

Annexitlon of Tcmescnl.The consensus of opinion among the people
of Temescal is favorable to the annexation ofthat town to Oakland. The resolution intro-duced by Mr.Dalton ntithe last Council meet-ing u.io this annexation scheme In view, and anumber of Temescal people have made publictheir ideas on the subject. It is understoodthat not only Temescal, but Golden Gate,Peralta. Claremonf,' Piedmont and Fruitvaleare all desirous of coming In.
Speaking on the subject. J. E. McElrath ofTemescal said:"Ihave always been in favor of annexation,
and am still heartily In favor of it. The peopleof Temescal are tired aud disgusted with thelack of sewers and auy sanitary regulations.As far as lknow there is no opposition fromany source except the saloon, roadside Inn-keepers, who settled in this vicinity when thelicense was raised InOakland. They willfighthard to have a place to conduct their game.The question which will be the only possiblesplitting tidbit is that of a boundary to the pro-posed annexed district. The creek Is thenatural boundary Hue, but as Berkeley doesnot. want anymore territory. itwill lie neces-sary to go io her line to driveout the waysidehouses. College way would be a good easternboundary line, from the intersection of theBerkeley town line.
"What Iwould like to see would be to havea line drawn from the bay beyond I'rultvaKdue north lo the top of the hills, and thencewesterly on that line to the slime line, takingall of the territory not Included In Berk ley.Itmust be done some day, and the sooner thebelter. As we cannot have itnow,Iwant toget inall we can and will do myshare. Itwinbe a great benelit for alitor many reasons, eventhough- the. taxes are raised somewhat. Wenow pay Sl 35 on the §100, and a road poll laxof £2. and iv the city the iota! tax would beonly $2 1-. We would gain a free delivery ofmail, better school facilities, some -fire, andpolice protection, of which we have absolutelynone now, and above all a sewer sysem andsanitary legulattous, which are needed worstoi all here." v
To secure annexation under the law it Isneenssarv to petition the Council with one-tilthof tne qualified voters of the city,asking thatan election be called for the purpose and deliu-
ing the boundaries of such district. At suchelection the vote is taken separately on the dayset, outside the city and within it, and a major-ity both inside the city and ou'stde must de-clare in favor of such annexation. That an-nexes the district.
Itfplacwrt by Bikn».The fleet and noiseless steel steed, the bicy-
cle, isgradually crowding out the liveryhorsemid buggy in Oakland. There Is nearly a quar-ter of a milltou dollars Inv sted in the tandem-wheeled vehicles In Oakland, an expert hasstated, and the number is constantly on the in-crease. \u25a0..-/.',.'*
Said a well-known 'liveryman recently: . -'
"Five years ago we used between thirty andforty livery rigs, where fifteen now fill thebill. Bui the elecrlc cars are responsible forthis change as well as bicycles. A cheaperclass of custom is another thing these days.The majority of customers who hire the bettersort of rigs are people who come across iromSan Francisco and desire to see Oakland. Thehorse market has been knocked endways, too.There isnothing but a bare livingin the busi-ness now. We used to mike $000 a monih.We think we are dolug well now to net halfthat much. We have to watch the comersmighty close. Just see the young people on bi-cycles. They go out, boys and girls, in groups,for pleasure rides. If it were not for thesewjieels they would go to the livery stables andhue thiee-seatet or a carry-all."
ALAMEDA.The City Trustees considered the charge of
J. B. Hagans against Officer Welch Wednes-day evening, resulting In the complete exonera-tion of Welch. He had arrested Hagans onsuspicion, as he said he had claimed to be aUnited States officer. Hagans* charge thatWelch was drunk was amply disproved.
The Trustees next took up the charge ofJames Root accusing Special Officer Schu-macher of usinu abusive and vulgar language.Schumacher haa told Root, who Is sufferingfrom a lung trouble, that he had been cheatingthe undei taker for six months. The officer oldnot offset the evidence against himself, aud wasforthwith discharged.

A CLEVER ADVENTURESS.She Is Victimizing Landladies in the
Mission.Aclever woman has been victimizing people
In the Mission by a scheme which shows thatshe is not new to the business. She is a well-dressed woman, about 35 years of aue and ofdark complexion. She speaks with a Scotchaccent.
She calls at a house where rooms are to rentand tells ;istory that she has just arrived fromVictoria. 15. C. Her husband is a sea captain,and as he is away on a long voyage she lias de-cided to spend the winter Inthe city as the cli-mate is much milder than In Victoria. Iftheroom" suited her she would be willingto pay areasonable rent lor them.
