. Breeder and sportsman. Horses. Vol . IV. No. Ifi. NO. 508 MONTGOJJDERV STREET. SAN FRANCISCO, SATURDAY, APRIL 19, 1884. ATHLETICS. Death of W. P. Phillips. Lovers of athletics will be extremely sorry to hear of the death of this deservedly popular rnnner and oarsman. Mr. Phillips diedjvery suddenly, of quinsy, on April 3d. He was 6 feet 2i inches high, and weighed 170 pounds. His record of 11 4-5~seconds for 120 yards has never been beaten, while his 220 yards in 22 2-5 is the best on record. From an interesting article in the London Sporting Life we select the following paragraphs: The deceased gentleman was born at Hendon, in the year 185S, and was educated at Eton, where he developed a taste for athletic sports, and he was never happier than when attending or participating in an athletic meeting or regatta. He stood 6 feet 2J inches high, and scaled in condition about 12 stone 2 pounds. He entered Eton College in 1871, and rowed 6 in the Eton 8 in 1876, and in the following year was second captain of the boats. At the collegesports he won the 100-yards, quarter, 120-yard hurdles, and high jump, besides running third for the mile. He was also a good foot-ball player, and was in the ranks of the Oppidans against the Collegers at the wall game, November 30th, 1876. Phillips left Eton, Easter, 1S77, and joined the London Athletic Club, making his debut at the first meeting held at Stamford Bridge, where he won the open 120-yard handicap, with four and a half yards start in 12 1-5 seconds. Subsequently he turned his attention to rowing, and stroked the Kingston eight and four at Henley Regatta that summer. In the Grand Challenge Kingston was beaten by London by a quarter of a length; but they managed to win the Wyfold, and on the following day also took the fours at Maidenhead and Marlow Kegatta. In May, 1S78, Phillips won the L. A. C. 220-Tards Chal- lenge Cup in remarkable time. At Henley, Phillips again stroked the Kingston boat in the Grand Challenge and Steward
