Approaching Opening of the Quail Season—The Annual Trap Shooting Tournament in Baltimore. An unusual amount of interest is being shown in the approaching hunting season by locai sportsmen, and many of them who have allowed their guns to rest until they have grown rusty are looking forward to November with much expectation. There is considerable inquiry regarding the laws which govern the shooting of game in the country adjacent to Washington, but owing to the vexatious complications in which state and county laws in Maryland and Virginia are entangled, it is almost impos- «sible to present any detailed information regarding the regulations that govern par- ticular sections. An important decision was rendered by the attorney general of Vir- ginia last week. The law which passed the Virginia legislature in January, 1896, for- biddirg the shooting of quail and par- tridges for two years was under consider- ation, and the attorney general decided that the provisions of it prohibited the shooting of pheasants for the same period. Consequently there will be little shooting in Virginia, except in counties where rabbits and squirrels may be killed, and few wing- shots care anything for this sort of sport. The adoption of the close season of two years, however, will assure splendid sport next year in Virginia, as there are numer- ous coveys of quail and bunches of pheas- ants reported throughout the state, and these birds will be enabled to live without human interference this winter, and will undoubtedly increase their species abund- antiy. As pfoof of this, certainly the con- ditions of sport in Garrett cougty, Mary- land, where the season for quail and pheasants has already opened, may be cited. At the January session, 1896, the legis- jature of Maryland passed a local law for Garrett county, prohibiting the shooting of pheasants in the county between the date of the passage of the law and the Ist day | of October, 1897. By reason of the fact that no pheasants were destroyed in the fall of 18%, they are very numerous now, and hunters are having great sport. Sports- men from Baltimore, Washington, Pitts- burg, Cincinnati and other cities go there for pheasant shooting in October and No- vember. A number of the natives make a business of shooting the birds for market during the season, and many of them make good wages while they enjoy the sport. ‘These birds have usually sold in Oakland for shipment at fifty cents apiece, and started in at that price at the beginning of the present season, but the price is much lower uow. The warm weather thus far has ruined the market, ana the pri be- ing paid are from fifteen to thirty-five cents. James Painter, a local sportsman, has shot seventeen pheasants within the past ten days inside the corporate limits of Oakland. Wild turkeys are very numerous also in Garrett, and in scme focalities farmers } complain that the: have almost destroyed the buckwheat crop. The ‘quail season is also open now in Car- roll county and birds are plentiful. In the remainder of Maryland the quail season opens November 1 and continues until De cember 24. Birds are plentiful in all di- rections. Paey, It would be well for persons unfamiliar with the county laws of Maryland, who may desire to seek sport in that state, to write to the county clerk of each county at the county seat and maKe inquiries ;about the-regulations governing shooting by non- residents. In the southern tier of Mary- land counties there are local laws which are to be rigorously enforced, compelling the securing of licenses to shoot by non- residents and providing other rules to be followed. Great interest is being taken by wing and trap shots in the forthcoming annual tour- nament of the Baltimore Shooting Asso- cation, which will occupy four days next week, commencing October 19 and closing. October 22. The great Maryland handicap will be shot Friday. Both live birds and targets will be shot at during the meet- ing. All the famous shots in the country are expected to be present, including Fred- erick Van Dyke of New Haven, E. D. Ful- ford of Utica, N. Y.; Captain John R. Brewer of New York, Edward Banks of New York, U. M. C.’Thomas of Bridge- port, William V. Hollowell of Philadelphia, 0. R. Dickey of Boston, Frank Mayhew of Utica, J. D.

Cooper, superintendent of the Naval Academy, opposes the suggestion of the last board of visitors to the academy that offi- cers and cadets be required to salute the national flag by raising their caps and that the present practice of saluting the flag with the hand be abandecned. In his annual report Capt. Cooper says on this subject: “What may appear proper in a civilian litt- ing his hat and uncovering upon all occa- sions is entirely incongruous in a upiform- ed officer or cadet.” May Visit Chicago. The Secretary of the Navy has granted the Marine Band permission to visit Chi- cago the first week in November, in order to furnish music for the horse show. —___—. -2+—_____ If you want anything, try an ad. in The Star.

If the All-American team had Childs at second and Bergen behind the bat the alleged Baltimore team would have to scare up better pitchers. Word comes from the west that Comis- key has made a deal with John T. Brush, whereby he will get Burke and Bug Holi- day of Cincinnati for his St. Paul team next season. The men are too good to be sent to the Western Leagne, and perhaps. some big league team will file objections if Cincinnati attempts to carry out the deal. ‘The umpire question will be decided by the magnates. If they are convinced that the public is tired of the fighting game there will be little kicking next year, but if they think the rows increase the inter- est there will be as many seraps next year as there were in the season just closed. At any rate, more power will be given to the rmpires, who, under the present base ball law, possess as much authority as a police magistrate. Pat Tebeau’s worth as a leader was demorstrated in the farce given by the Selee-Barnie combination at Exposition Park last Friday. The exhibition was too raw to be interesting, but Patsy forced the men under him to hustle, with the result that Jesse Burkett and several other mem- bers of the All-American team displayed mere energy than when seen here last in championship games. Besides coaching his pleyers, Tebeau prevented the specta- ters from falling asleep. Tebeau believes in giving the people the worth of their money, and dozs not excuse loafing even in exhibition games. If the combine’s trip proves a success, he will deserve more credit than any one else connected with it.—Pittsburg Press. WASHINGTON JOCKEY CLUB. Second Fall Meeting at Benning to Open November 6. The second fall meeting of the Washing- ton Jockey Club will open at the Benning track Saturday, November 6, and there is every Indication that it will be the most svecessful in the history of the club, from both racing and financial points of view. Contrary to usual custom, the meeting next month will not close the racing sea- son of 1897 in the east, as the Pimlico meeting at Baltimore immediately follows that at Benning. Many stables will, how- ever, winter at the Benning track, as it Is admittedly one of the best points for the purpose in the country. As heretofore stated in The Star, Mr. Ben Hellen nas tendered his resignation as secretary of the club, because of other pressing business, the veteran W. G. Crick- more being made his successor, while Mr. J. Harry McCauley will act as assistant secretary, looking particularly after local matters. Mr. Crickmore is preparing and ae the book program of the meet ere will be not less than five races each day, inciuding, of course, hurdle lechase events, a pink coat steeplechase race for gentlemen riders be- ing set for the first day of the meeting. ‘There will also be a like race for a plece of plate donated by the National Steeple- chase and Hunt Association of the value of not less than $100. The track is in splendid condition, having been resoiled, and applications for stable room already om file ask for accommoda- tions for more than 150 horses, with indi- cations that double that number will be at track when the meeting opens. M. J. Dwyer has written for accommodations for twelve horses; Tom Healey, twelve; Jimmy McLaughlin, fourteen; John Hynes, fifteen; Jack Goldsboro, five; Billy Oliver, ten; Father Bill Daly, eighteen; W. Birch, seven. GEORGETOWN CYCLE RACES. Several Spills Owing to the Badly Constructed Track. The bicycle meet at Georgetown Univer- sity Saturday was a success in every par- ticular, and although the track is not sulta- ble for such races, being entirely without banking at the turns, the time made was exceptionally good. There were several spilis. Fred Schade and Al. Moran divided the honors of the day between thein. Schade won three races, while Moran de- feated the fair-haired rider in a match race that brought out the closest finish of the day. The race between B. F. Wefers, the champion sprinter, and Fred Schade, which was scheduled as the feature of the meet Saturday did not take place. Wefers was cn the tr: but was in no shape to do at ju His place was taken by Villiam ‘Cody, a sprinter who has pushed Wefers on several occasions. In a run of 150 yards, Cody on fuot and Schade on a wheel, the former was allowed a handicap of ten yards and the inside of the track. Cody led ut the start, but was beaten out by five yards, Schade winning in 14 1-5. Geo. Lyons of Georgetown College broke the college half-mile record.
