THE SAN FRAN: A LITTLE SUNDAY FISHING FOR MEN. COMMISSION PROTECTS {E FINNY WARDS OF THE* STATE. A LABOR PURELY OF LOVE. A GUN FIGHT AVERTED BY CoOL: N s anp Goop Jubc- MENT. 1 the world .loves a lover, but never rganic life there is no living thing so persistently wooed and .so enthusiastically won as the silvery, swift and dainty tooth- 1 that swims in the sea.

Soon other sounds were heard among the tules— reports of guns fired by the fishermen in | their boats or scows--the common signal of warning on the riyer that the patrolmen arc out. They are all virtually lawbreak- ers, every alien mother’s son of them, and the Fish Commissioner isa common enem whose approach must . be signaled throug the cutoffs and reaches of the river. Notwithstanding these precautions sev- eral boats and 'poachers were captured after exciting chases through the deeg mud and tall reeds and the prizes turne over to the constable at Collinsville. Mov- |ing on” in their raid they captured the boat and net of an American named ‘White, who has been arrested four times for illicit fishing. He is a big man, of un- governable temper, a willful, determined ?ellow, and had sworn to use his shotgun upon the patrolmen when next they inter- fered with his fishing, law or no law. He immediately took his boat away from the timid deputy constable, and with his bat- tery aboard went hunting the hunters. He .was furious, half drunk, and came with the expressed determination of killing Deputy Babcock on _sight. White stood on the levee near the launch and with both hammers of the gun raised threatened and abused the officials with the vilest language. He wasin a danger- ous mood and it only needed the slightest | move on their part to draw a murderous fire from the gun he brandished so sav- agely. Of course there was a big nayy re- volver secretly watching him and before he could have leveled his weapon he would have been riddled, but the officers stood quietly by for almost an hour and let him pour his torrent of villainous words upon them until he wore himself out. Thus what might probably have ended in a bloody gunfight was averted by the ad- mirable coolness and excellent judgment | | [ GHAMPION JONES - HEANY BUSINESS HE ISSUES A CHALLENGE TO PLAY ANY TWO HANDBALL PLAYERS ON THE COAST. UNION CdURT VICTORIES. THE OCCIDENTAL CLUB 70 MAKE AN EFFORT TO BRING CASEY HERE. . The handball courts were well patronized yesterday and in each several rattling egames were played. The greatest interest attached to the concluding games of the match between J. Lawless and G. Hutchin- son of the San Francisco court and J. Nel- son and John Dillon of the Union court, which was played in the formér court. The Union court team proved too strong for their opponerts and won the match by five games to two. Amnother attraction at this court was a game between Jones, the Australian champion, and J. Harlow and John Slattery, the champion winning after an exciting struggle by three games to two. At the Occidental court the game of the day was between T. F. Bonnet and E. Ma- s not a whit the | of the arresting officers. White was ar- | loney and Champion P. T.

It is the Christian Sabbath and the | x{sy religiously set apart for rest, but the Commissioners, 6beying literally the divine injunction to be “fishers of men,” feel justified and go on their way re- {ommg. _Up in the reedy sloughs hey will - find whom they seek—a law and a Sabbath-breaker.

Taken altogether the Fish Com- missioner’s life is not a very happy one, giving as he does his days and nights to 1 protecting the helpless finny wards of the State.

There were several keenly contested games at the Union court. One of the best was between R. Linehan and J. Feeney and M. Dillon and Al Pennoyer,the two former winning by three games to one. A single-hand _game between Terry Me- Manus and Professor Lynch attracted great attention. The professor was defeated by Terry the previous Sunday, but he had his revenge yesterday. The new floor on this court is giving great satisfaction. The Occidental Handball Club has de- cided not to send two playersjto Brooklyn, but the secretary has written Phil Casey, the world's champion, asking what terms willinduce him and ex-Alderman Dunne to visit this city. As Champion Riordan and Kelly have not seen fit to press their challenge to play Jones, the Australian champion, Jones is out with a challenge to play any two hand- ballers on the coast, professional or ama- teur, for $100 a side or more, the match to be the best of nine games. Considerable interest is being taken in the team tournament tobe played in the Occidental court, commencing about May 1. Already sixteen teams have entered and many more may be expected. The following games were played at the San Francisco court: W. Brown defeated W. Darius in a single- handed contest by the following score: 21—13, 18-21, 21-10. P. Barrett and H. Moffett defeated W.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., March 31.—Five hundred local sports congregated at Stranger Creek, Kans., forty miles from here to-day, and witnessed a lively two- round fight between Oscar Gardner, the “Omaha Kid,” and “Cockney”’ Dougherty, a Kansas City fighter.

In the second round Dougherty was in- clined to rush matters. In making a heavy swing at Gardner’s jaw and miss: ing, he left an opening for the kid. The latter took advantage of it and landed a stunner under Dougherty’s heart. Before Cockney could recover from the effects of the blow a terrific left swing on the jaw sent him down and out. Dougherty was unconscious for six minutes. The fight was for $500 a side and gate receipts. Gardner weighed in at 120 ‘pounds, Daugherty 143. Nashville’s Derby Day.

Call ita whim if you want.. I don’t care. I went to the doctor the other day because I was peevish, fretful and melancholy. He said: : Your howels don't act. Your kidneys are sluggish. Your stomach is foul. You need Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla, Of course, the doctor felt my pulse. All doctors do. He looked into my sallow face with a mournful wistfulness. I could see he wanted lo help me. He said: " Your organs of secretion are in bad form. Your organs of exeretion are no better., Your sweat glands don’t do any work, You are all worn out and tired. Take a corrective and stimulant. Take Joy’s Vegetable Sarsaparilla. The doctor told me why I should take Joy’s Vegetable Sarsaparilla. Because it is for the liver. Because it is for the stomach. Because it is for the howels. Because it is for the sweat glands. Because it stimulates organs of ex- eretion, & Beeause it stimulates organs of seere- ion. Because Joy’s Vegetable Sarsaparilla is so mild and effective in every case like mine. In Joy’s Vegetable Sarsaparilla you not only get a liver stimulant, a digestive promoter, a kidney and bowel regulator, but an invaluable remedy for headaches, for insomnia, for nervousness, {for impure blood, for dizziness and for acl}- ing backs. Joy’s Vegetable Sarsaparilla is a general tissue rebuilder. In every bottle of Joy’s Vegetable Sarsaparilla, so the doc- tor said, you get 16 ounces of pure vegetable juices. S «JOY’'S FOR THE JADED.” I have had for years spells of indigestion and dyspepsia, and have tried nearly everything. Finally 1100k one of the sarsaparilias. It did not help me and caused pimples to break out on my face. This I was told was the result of the potash contained in it. Hearing that Joy’s Vegetuble Sar- saparilia did not contain mineral and acted dif- ferently, T got some. The pimples disappeared al- Inost Tnmedistely, and T have ot had any since, Ihave not had a symptom of my old disease, nor do I think it will return. MRS. C. B. STEWART, 400 Hayes street, City. Good Health for All Mankind in Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla. To show you my gratitude and for the benefit of others, 1 make it my duty to inform you that your Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla has done me more £ood than anything I have ever used, and I have tried nearly everything. I used to rest but little at nights, tossed from side to side, and after meals was troubled with indigestion, and my headaches nearly drove me frantic. Your medicine has wrought magic, and I feel like a different person, and my troubles are gone. RS. SALINA LOPEZ, 2119 Seventh street, St. Louis, Mo. I take great pleasure in recommending your Sar- saparilla. I have only taken one bottle so far, but I feel like n new man. Isaffered from headaches and bloatiug of the ‘stomach, caused, I presume, from indigestion. I shall continue to use it for a while, and 1 heartily recommend it to my friends. Tt is & credit to you. W. M. ENGLISH, 1016 Market street, City. SEE THAT YOU GET THE GREAT «HOME REMEDY.” Your Sarsaparilla has done me much About a yearago I begun to feel very miserable and my skin was turning very yellow. I was all aches and pains. I ent to the doctor and he told me my liver was dut of order and gave me some medicine, which did me no good. One of my neigh- bors came in and advised me to try Joy's Vegetable Sarsaperilla. I did, -and with good effect. I feel like a new being now and wish every one to know the good it has done me. MRS, GEORGE DELRIDGE, Butte City, Mont. REFUSE A'SUBSTITUTE. 1 had been troubled for a long time with liver and Kkidney troubles, and had tried many remedies with little or no effect, but your Californian Remedy acted like magic with me, and with the first boftle 1 was relieved from a_case of the worst sick head ache that one ever has. I now take the opportunity 10 write you the fact and also that I think remedy will effectually cure such disorders. It gives me pleasure to send you this testimonial, and you may refer people to me who may need con- firmalon of these facts. Yours truly, MRS. M. B. PRICE, 16 Prospect place, San Francisco, Cal. Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla being recommended to me for general debility, I commenced taking it. It allayed the ngrvousness and made me sleepmore soundly than had been my habit. It has been of great benefit to me and I am still taking it occa- sionally. A casg of old catarrh now under my ob- servation has also nearly succumbed to its cor rective Influences. Your Vegetable Sarsaparilla Is all that has been said of it. MRS, J. BARRON, 142 Seventh street, City. PROPOSALS For Repairing and Heating the Pea body Primary Selool Building, EALED.
