J. C. RUDDICK. SPORTS AT LOS ANGELES. Result of the Pigeon-8hooting Oontests—Race- horse and Bace Wheel. LOS ANGELES, CawL., April 2.—The first annual tournament of the Southern California Wing-shooting Club opened in Los Angeles to-day at the City Gun Club's grounds. It wiil be continued to-morrow and will close on Sunday. It is the most interesting event of the kind ever held in Los Angel The tournament is under the manage- ment of Martinez Chick of San Diego and A. W. Bruner of Los Angeles. Nearly all the best-known shots in Southern Califor- nia are present this afternoon, and mani- fest the greatest enthusiasm in the several contests. All events are governed by the Ameri- can Shooting Association rules for target and live bird shooting. Result thus far: First event, 10 live birds, entrance $10— E. Rice 10, C. Fox 9, W. Hamilton 9. Sec- ond money divided. Second event, 12 live birds, entrance $8— M. Chick 12, J. Cheatham 12, C._ Robinson 11. In this event first, second and third money was divided.

Much regret has been expressed over the financial failure of La Fiesta races at Los Angeles, and if the sympathy felt for Henry Schwartz in his untimely venture would make up his deficiency it would be more than covered. The result goes to show that when there is much excitement and show business going on in the streets of a city it is not a good time to have horse-racing. Had such a gathering of horses come to Los Angeles at any other period of the year than Fiesta week, it _is safe to say it would have been greeted with a large attendance. The Los Angeles Wheelmen’s date on the National circuit has been fixed for November 9. Preparations are being made for the race meetings to be_held here May 30 and July 4. The ta Monica road race prom- ises to be the greatest event west of Chicago this year. At Riverside festival “Orange day,” April 22, there were 212 cvclers in line in the parade. On July 4 the wheelmen of that city say they will turn out 600 strong or turn their bicycles into pruning-hooks. Riverside claims more wheelers to the square inch than any other city in the te. _ Senator John P. Jones, at present stay- ing at his Santa Monica residence, lately bought four Syracuse bicycles for usein his family. A conservative estimate of the number of bicyeles in San Diego is placed by the dealers of that city at 700 and the riders at five times that number. Arrangements are being made for run- ning the annual relay from Los Angeles to San Diego, via Riverside, Perris and Es- condido early next month—May. Captain idwards of the wheelmen written the Riverside men that the local club will look after the relays between ondido and San Diego, Much better time is expected than last year, when the 135 miles were covered in a fraction over twelve hours. The Los Angeles wheelmen, under the direction of H. C. Ford Smith, will givea race meet at the Los Angeles Athletic Club Park on Decoration day. As large a prize list as was ever given on the coast fora single day’s g will be offered, and it is expected that all of the prominent riders of both classes on the coast will be present. The Local Revenue Office in Favor of the Brandy Men’s Law. A Good Measure Which Will Benefit One of the Big Industries of the State. There will not be much opposition on the part of the Government, or at least by the Government officers on this coast, to the passage of the law allowing the bot- tling of spirits in bond, as the framers of the measure anticipated. It was expected that serious opposition would be shown on z the source of the | about | stream ‘that flows west to the | | | | | | | | where the bonded cases of bottles may be | Thomas Mulligan, a collector, before Jus- the ground of inexpediency, expense and an increased liability to fraud, but i ead of this it is considered a good measure by Internal Revenue Collector 0. M. Wel- burn, and his office will support it. “The law has never been presented to E said Louis Loupe, Mr. Welburn’s chief deputy, ‘“‘and so we know but little about it. From what I do know, how- ever, I think the law would be & good one, and it would not be difficult to putitin practice. On the issue of expense, I don't | see how it will cut much of a figure, for | the United States storekeeper in each | bonded warehouse has nothing else to ds but keep track of the packages in bond Cases of bottles can be looked after just | as well as casks, and the only additional | expense I can see is the necessity for sepa- | rate departments in each warehouse | ke}-: by themselves. The "provosed amendment to the in- ternal revenue laws—ior that is the hape in which the new measure will be presented—is not very generally under- stood by the Government officials, and much of the opposition which it has met with is the result of ignorance regarding | the details of the law. The expense of| uging the spirits in glass and the impos- sibility of gauging it accurately has been pointed out and urged as an argument against the law; but under the terms of the amendment the spirits bottled will be drawn from casks already in bond and already »d, and further gauging is entirely ary. The only extra ex- pense and trouble which the law will im- pose will be the Yrmlmg of more bond stamps for the bottles and affixing them to the flled packages. The spirit trade of South America, which is an extensive one, is carried on almost en- tirely in bottles, and it is this trade which the Jocal brandy men are seeking to secure for themselves, and they have framed this | law with a view to make that possible. 1In foreign countries, where it is permitted to bottle in bond, the shipper may ship his goods in bottles from bond, without the expense of taking it outand paying the tax on it before bottling. In addition, he receives the benefit of the bond stamp on the bottle, which is vroof positive of the purity of its contents. In this country, there being no law permitting the bottling of bonaed spirits, the shipper must either ship in wood or he must pay the tax, with- draw his spirits and bottle at his own cel- lar. He therefore loses the amount of the excise tax, 0 cents a gallon, and also the moral value of the bond stamp on his package. The whisky men from the East are very anxious to have their product included in the law, and, in the opinion of the revenue ofticers here, if this be done, there is no doubt of its adoption. The local revenue office will not oppose the measure in any way, as it is believed by the Collector to be a law which will benefit the brandy inter- est of the State materially. MULLIGAN HAD TO PAY. A Civil Suit Brought Against Judge Low Promptly Decided in His Favor. Judge Low was the defendant in a civil suit for malicious prosecution brought by tice of the Peace Cook, which was tried yesterday. The evidence being in, Justice Cook promptly decided for the defendant. The facts as brought out in the testimony were that Mulligan harassed Judge Low about an old claim, seeking him in public places, and finally becoming so abusive as 1o give warrant for his arrest. Mulligan secured bonds, and the bondsman appealed to the Judge, and the Judge allowed the matter to be dismissed, with the under- standing that he would no longer be sub- jected to such annoyance. ~Mulligan straightway entered the suit which was tried and adjudged against him vesterday. Several witnesses testified to Mulligan’s peculiar methods as a collector. —————— Like a Machine, Which kept In order runs smoothly and regularly, 50 the bowels keep up their action if measures are taken to keep them in good working order.

Reallzation Defeats Jack Richelieu in the Only Finish of the Day. Thirteen bookmakers “cut in” yesterday. W. 0B. Macdonough played in & good chunk of money on Charles A. Coffey is doing some good riding. well-timed race on Gold Bug. He rode & Ed Purser backed the consistent Quirt, get- ting asgood as 10 to 1 for some of his money. son, the 9 to 5 favorite for the fourth s in some manner struck in his good eve while at the post, and when the field was finally sent away sulked the first furlong, and his rider, thinking he had broken down, pulled him up. William Murry, the owner and trainer of the Lone stable, was fined $100 by the stewards yesterday for striking a stable-boy to whom he owed $5 for services rendered. The lad ec- ted owner Murry in the betting ring and insisted on getting his money with the result stated. The boy now has the money. The get of imp. True Briton are certainly making a great showing, and the black horse is one of the coming sires of the State. In the two-year-old race yesterday the favorite, Her Majesty, ran the fastest four and a half fur- longs yet run by a two-year-old at the meeting, and Zeta, another daughter of his, finished din the same race at her maiden essay getting none the best of a poor start. The California Jockey Club has decided to continue the present race meeting in- definitely, running all through the sum- mer months, with the exception of the two weeks during the State Fair. At the conclusion of the last race yester- , the stewards of the Jos Club held a spirited meeting, to inquire into the charge of complicity in the alleged *‘dop- ing” of the Ledette filly, preferred against the owner, Denny Lynch of the Arizona stable. Mr. Lynch was on hand promptly, courting an investigation, and stated that he had no hand in the matter whatever, and that circumstances would prove such to be the case, Mr. Lynch’s side of the story was heard, and the colored boy Cuba again told his story, which was substantially the same as told before. Some stable employes were also called and questioned in regard to cer- tain facts in the case, but further than tbis very little was accomplished. The investi- gation will be resumed to-day. Notwithstanding the threatening condi- tion of the weather the attendance was good and the betting was lively. Favorites, as usual, had a rough time o out of six managing to finish in front. After the third race the rain made the track a trifle heavy. The downfall of the first choices began with the opening race, when Laurel, a 3 to 1 chance, and Outright, the 6105 favorite, raced together to the head of the stretch, where the favorite began stop- ping. Laurel then went on and won clev- erly from Tamalpais. Little Tough fin- ishied in third place. It was a poor run, the five and a half furlongs being completed in 1:10. Her Majesty opened a 2 to 1 favorite for the four and a half furlong race for two- ar-olds, closing at 6 to 5. Sie got a fly- ing start on the field, and was never headed, winning by a length from Iaa H, Zeta finished third. dicap was an extra lively ir. Charles A was played as though the race was over, going to the postat 1l to 5. With T. Smith up, Quirt was overlooked by most bettors, and as 00d as 10 to 1 was' at one time obtainable. Arnette was second choice, with Mollie R a consistent third choice. When the flag fell Quirt went to the front and was never headed, winning easily by three lengths from the hard-rid- den favorite, Charles A. Arnette was a rather distant third. A cheap lot of platers went to the post for the fourth race, afive and a half fur- long spin. Nelson was apparently the best of the lot and was made a 9 to 5 favorite. With 9 to 1 against her chances, Lulu took the lead soon_after the flag fell and led throughout, winning by a length from The Drummer. The heavily backed Inker- man was third, poorly ridden. A short six-furlong run, the fifth event on the card, was taken by the 3 to 1 favor- ite, Gold Bug, in a drive from McFarlane, who beat Nellie G a head for second place. Jack Richelieu and Realization came to- gether in the last race, a short six-furlong run, and the betting was sharp. Once 13 to 10, Jack Richelieu closed in the betting 19 to 20. Realization was 2 to 1 at post time. Arctic and Miss Ruth also started. Realization jumped to the front, with Jack Richelieu at his heels, and they ran that way until an eighth from home, when Carr began riding the favorite. He rode him desperately, but could not overtake the California stable’s mudlark and was beaten a head. Miss Ruth was a distant third, ten lengths away. MULHOLLAND. SUMMARY.

THE EASTE ON N TRACKS. Siémon W. Breaks a Record at the Ken- tucky Association Meeting. LEXINGTON, Ky., April 26. — With about 2000 people on the grounds the Ken- tucky Association began its sixty-ninth annual spring meeting this afternoon. The track was very fast. Rain occurred every few minutes. The last race was run in a heavy rain. The event of the day was the Distillers’s stake.

PHILADELPHTA Pa., April 26.—The athletic association of the University of vlvania has decided to accept the ions and order of events put forward by the University of California. Califor- nia suggests that two men oniy be entered on each event and only two firsts count. Of course these conditions are less favorable to Pennsylvania, but in consid- eration of the great distance traveled by the Californians for the meeting and her small team, it was thought to be only fair that they should be accepted. Carver Makes a Great Score. SCRANTON, Pa., April 26.—Dr. Carver and Harry Swartz of this city shot the sec- ond of their matches here to-day, which resulted in Carver’s killing 99 birds out of 100.

A DANCE AND A PLAY The Jolly Corinthians Will Have a Merry Opening at Tiburon. A GALA DAY ON MARIN SHORE. Yachtsmen WIill Turn Thesplans for the Nonce and Joy Will Be Unconfined. The Corinthian Yacht Club will cele- brate the opening of the yachting season this afternoon and to-night at the club- house at Tiburon. In the afternoon there will be a dance, and, weather permitting, there will be an outing on the bay in the cove of Tiburon. All the yachts of the fleet will ride at anchor and the small boats will be moored to the float for the convenience and pleasure of the guests. The celebration promises to be the greatest ever known in the history of the Corinthi- ans. The jolly sailors hailing from the Tibu- ron shore have been very busy during the past two weeks making preparations for the entertainment of their fair guests and they propose to make the celebration a most memorable one. Many seasons have been passed without the presence of the Commodore J. W. Pew of the Corin- thian Yacht Club. gentler sex at Tiburon, bnt the Corinthi- ans have determined to destroy a tradition of the club which has precluded the at- tendance of ladies and keep pace with the | Sausalito side of the bay in the social end of the season. Port Captain J. H. Keefe has spent the last two days at the clubhouse supervising the arrangements for the great gala occa- sion, and the mere mention of this fact is | sufficient assurance that the matter is_in competent hands. Captain Keefe is going | further than the supervision of the enter- | tainment in the afternoon. It is not gen- | erally known that he'laysclaim to any his- trionic talent, but it is a fact. There is considerable latent genius in this line smoldering in the personnel of the gay and | careless sailors which has heretofore lacked opportunity to make the owners glreun To- night many of the yachtsmen will appear in the role of actors, when a play entitled “The Moorings” will be produced. The idenmf of the author of the play has been | carefully concealed for reasons which may | appear later on. It is an open secret, how- ever, that the breath of the divine afflatus has touched Captain Keefe, and his iriends confidently assert that to-night will make him famous. True, he has not a speaking part, but the charge of the wigs and costumes has been intrusted to his hands, and it is in the ma- nipulation of the disguises that it is ex- ected he will achieve fame. A number of aring posters have been distributed throughout the city, setting forth what the Corinthian Thespians propose to show to their friends. The posters read like this: CORINTHIAN THEATER.

JosErH 8. JORDAN. ANOTHER FORGED NOTE. Oscar T. Shuck Received One for Collec~ tion on the Estate of James C. Flood. Apropos of the note for $300,000, which:| was suddenly sent in to the Fair estate, Oscar T. Shuck, a local attorney, has dis- covered one worth $200,000, which was, through him, sent for collection to the es- tate of J. C. Flood. One note on the Flood estate was made in favor of W. W. Cor- coran and was indorsed presumably by him on the back of the paper. While it is generally believed that the signatures of Corcoran as indorser and Flood as maker are forgeries, still there is no one who will state positively that this is so. The note was presented to the trustees of | fourth and Folsom streets, on the Flood estate, and they say that at the time it was made Flood was in no need of money, nor do the records of the estate make any mention of the transaction. The note is dated “California, Septem- ber 16, 1886,” and is worded almost exactly like the note presented to the trustees of the Fair estate a few days ago. The note was as follows: $200,000. CALIFORNIA, Sept. 16, 1886. Three years after date I promise to pay to the order of W. W. Corcoran ’Fwo Hundred Thou- sand Dollars, at his place in Washington, D. C. with interest, without defalcation, for val Teceived. J. C. FLoon. Mr. Shuck received the interesting bit of gaper in 1889 in a letter which stated that e had been recommended to the writer, and he was therefore intrusted with the note which he was to collect upon and send the money to Hon. George Wolfe, Bristol House, Wilkesbarre, Pa., and the letter was signed Stroud Starbird. Mr. Shuck had his suspicions as to_the enuineness of the paper, so he locked it in is drawer and made no attempt to collect upon it. A year later he received another letter from Stroud Starbird, like the first one, dated from New York. This letter re- ferred to the note sent, and again asked that it would be collected. This second letter suggested to Mr. Shuck that for his own protection he should present the note, and he accordingly did so. At the office of the Flood estate, the trustees declined to say positively that the signatures were for- geries, but they would not pay the note. It 1s supposed that some clever forger is operating in this way all over the country, getting amounts from various estates where his aptitude at_penmanship may be turned to account. If this be so, he did wrong in the two instances which have come to light, for he is supposea to be the maker of the Fair note as well, for the magnitude of the sums involved worked toward discrediting the notes and having them investigated PSRt s A GREOIAN COMBINATION.

Improvements Are Belng Made in the Building Line. Many The extension of the electric street-car system to South San Francisco and through the Potrero has enlivened interest in real estate materially in those districts. This work, with the confidence inspired by the enthusiasm for the Valley road, has ren- dered realty values firm and induced many of the land-owners to begin building. In the Potrero a new hotel, two school- houses and several private dwellings are in course of erection and many more in contemplation. Owners of buildings are evincing their belief in the advent of pros- perity with the summer by numerous im- provements. 'Chis district has also its newspaper, the South San Francisco and Mission Mail, a weekly published by E. B. Griffiths’ Sons, in which the news of purely local interest is displayed in an in- teresting manner. Many social events are in course of preparation both in_ South San Francisco and the Mission. A Mikado party is to be five“ at the South San Francisco Opera- house on Saturday evening, May 4, by the I. T. Club. The theater section of the Mission Turners present an up-to-date travesty of ‘‘Heroand Leander’ at their hall, on Eighteenth street, Sunday even- ing. (g)n May 3 Olympus Circle, Companions of the Forest, give an “old-clothes party” at Mission Parlor, on Seventeenth street. The Dominion Club are to tender a benefit en- tertainment and ball to William Delane at the N.S.G.W.

On Tuesday evening an entertainment for the benefit of the resi- dence fund of St. Theresa’s Church will be iven at the same place by the Potrero Specialty Club. he electric-cars in the Potrero have as yet caused no accidents. In the Mission they have not been so fortunate. Last week J. T. Kelly, who lives at Twenty- ninth and Dolores streets, was knocked down by a car and severely cut about the neck. The two little girls of J. M. Comerford. the real estate man of Twenty-ninth an Mission streets, were recently hurt in a runaway caused by one of the cars. They were taking a short ride by themselves in their father’s buggy while he was transact- ing some business. When they reached Twenty-ninth street an electric-car came up from behind. The horse became frightened at the ringing of the bell and ran away. Both girls were thrown outand the buggy was smashed. — =8 Mrs. Mills’ Musicale.
