The next of the series of matches be- tween the Garden City Cyclers’ Gun Club and the Gilroy Sportsmen’s Protective As- sociation takes place Sunday, May 19, at the Cyclers’ shooting grounds near this city. Great interest is being manifested in the coming shoot. A silver cup is the trophy contested for and 'the conditions are the best two in three shoots. The Cyclers won the first match.

' Cyclists Who Are Annoyed by Peo- ple Who Puncture Their Wheels. LOB ANGELES, CaL., May 9, 1895.—Los Angeles is fast becoming one of the most notorious cities in the State for cycle thieves. During last month (April) they averaged a wheel a day. Besides the thieving there is an epidemic of ‘‘punctur- ing” raging. The puncturists roam the streets after dark, and whenever they see 8 pneumatic tire lying around loose they take a fiendish delight in puncturing it, s0 that when the unfortunate owner comes out to proceed on his way he finds his wheel about as much use to him as a fifth- wheel to a wagon. There are some news paper reporters who are “laying low” for these *‘puncturists,” and it is more than likely that the first one caught will be apt to go home with a punctured head. Jack Prince, the professional long- distance cyclist, who claims pretty much every record in sight, is still in Los An- geles, trymfi to get up a match between imself and any two horses for twenty miles, horses to change *every mile, .the stake to be either $100 or $200 a side. The Los Angeles division of the League of American Wheelmen is preparing a roadbook which will show the best roads in Southern California and Western Arizona for bicycle-riding. The new book 1 also show the best routes to San Fran- and Albuquerque, the desire being, ci as Chief Consul Allen says, to make it the best up-to-date roadbook yet published. _The first annual road race under the aus- pices of the Santa Monica Bicycle Club will take place at SBanta Monica on Sun- v, May 12, The Los Angeles Wheelmen have re- ceived sanctions from National Chairman Gideon for race meets on May 30 and 31, July 4 and November 9.

The seven-mile road race at Ventura last week is criticized from all sides. “Every- thing was wrong and the management was ivg')]rse" seems to be the consensus of opin- T o The prospects are good for good races by the Los Angeles wheelmen on May 30. The several committees are working like beavers and are determined that nothing shall happen to mar first-class sport. The Los Angeles Pacific Field is a devel- oper. Last week it developed into the big- gest weekly paper exclusively devoted to the interests of cyclists ever published on the Pacific Coast. sty S e STOCKTON SPORTING. The Crews That Will Row In the El Campo Regatta—The Sprinters. STOCKTON, Car., May i1.—Much inter- est is taken here in the coming barge races at El Campo on Decoration day. The Stockton Athletic Association has made some changes in the the crew it intends to send down to compete in the senior race. The crew will be composed of Frank | Butler (stroke), H. C. Van Meter (forward waist), C. B. Hart (after waist), John Per- rott Jr. (bow), D. B. Trahern (coxswain). | Another crew may be entered in the junior race with Gus Grant stroke, R. C. Chap- man forward waist, Will Folger after waist, Ernest Braunton bow, Trahern cox- swain. This has not been settled, but in all probability two crews will go down. | The first-named crew is training hard, | under the direction of Dave Creanor, a | veteran oarsman, and is rowing the Bob | Cook stroke. The tug Estella has been chartered to | take down a private party to witness the | sports at El Campo and another will go | down on the Budd launch. The athletic association will probably charter one of the river steamers to take its members down. A race has been arranged for the 16th inst. beiween the crews mentioned, and Walter E. Magee, physical instructor of the University of California, will act as judge. In the evening he will deliver an | illustrated lecture under the auspices of the athletic association at Masonic Hall on “Physical Culture.” He will also ad- vise the directors as to the best apparatus to be purchased for the new clubhouse. | The association will probably hold a field- the coming month, The city is now overrun with professional | sprinters and a race is on_for next Sunday and another is in the wind for the 19th inst. Some of the best men in the country are in Jon~ Crala. | s { SPORT IN MENDOCINO. | “Nimrod” Sends an Interesting Budget of Angling Lore. UKIAH, Car., May 9, 1895.—Patience | has ceased to be a virtue among those who want to try their skill and Iluck with rod | and line. The warm weather does not | come and the anglers tarry no longer on the order of going, but “go fishing” any- | how. | Sherifi J. R. Johnson of this county and | a brace of Sheriff Whelan’s force of depu- ties of San Francisco, Messrs. Gibney and Tracy, tried Robinson -Creek a day or two The stories they told had a trace | of fish in them, but the writer did not see their baskets. The City Sheriffs have had considerable experience too, it is said, in deep water, and from the wharves, but this kind of experience in rippling streams of Mendocino is not always rewarded. They say it is rather dull fishing with rubber fl and that hereafter when they go on | the stream they are going to take a bottle | of flies of the real %enuine article with | them. They want also to have a force of | men hired to cut out shrubbery and limbs | of trees, as a portion of their fishing tackle | was left at various pointson the stream, | high over their heads. The party, among | whom_was Mrs. Kernan, enjoyed an ex- | hilarating drive, modest "catch and deli. | cious lunch. Sheriff Whelan, himself, has promised us a visit, when he will study the topography of the streams with the inten- | tion of giving object lessons in fly-casting | to his deputies on his return. Deputy Recorder M. B. Gibson, Marcus Gibson and U. N. Briggs were on’ Elledge Creek before the sun on Sunday last. These sportsmen believe in whipping streams that have not been punished | life I violated my conscience, but for the purpose of seeing how much of a catch I could make in one day. I am afraid this may be considered a ‘fish story,’ but I sometimes regret that it is true. It was on the Navarro Riverin this county. in the vicinity of Anderson Valley and the North Fork. The trout took the fly well, and I could see that I was going to meet with great success. I was 100 miles from home and had promised to send some of my catch to friends, so I dismissed all reserve and fished until sundown. Iwasrewarded with 210 pounds of trout, beauties, the largest one weighing 614 pounds. i.re- turned to the stream all fish under tweive inches. These fish, strung out and hung on the tent Eule, reached from the top of the tent to the ground. I shall never re- peat this offense and am glad to say itis my only digression. U1 consider the best fly for the early sea- son is either the ‘Marlow buzz’ or the ‘gray hackle.” Later in the season the tprofessor’ and ‘coachman,’ with the ‘Elnck gnat,’ as the best late summer fly.” ‘When asked concerning the size of the hook he answered: ““I believe that gener- ally the hooks used are too large. Icon- sider Nos. 6 and 8 too large, and have met with the best success when using the No. 14 or 16. The good angler is something like a good orator, the art cannot always and the occasion. that nature must be imitated, as proper fishing is practicing deception, so far as the game is concerned. One should make his bait appear as natural as possible on the surface of the water, and this means that he should not fling his hook and drag it over the surface. ““My best catch in the vicinity of Ukiah was in Russian River, about seven miles north of the town. The two trout shown in the photograph were caught in one of small streams tributary to Russian River and near the n?'lum.” ““T have heard something about a dry-fly cast, Mr. Eastman, will you kindly de- scribe it for me?”’ £ “Well, yes. If you will let me off now I will give it to you some time in the near future.” So I am promised something interesting in this line, which I will reserve for another sketch. The weather at tlis writing has turned warmer and we may now expect better sport in all the streams. Nivrop. fatmgs sty IN THE EAST. Doings of the University of Call- fornia Men Beyond the Rockies.

The Club Nine and the Uni- versity Nine to Play To-Day. There will be a game of baseball between the nines of the Olympic Club and the | Stanford University to-morrow at 3 ». a. in Central Park. The Olympic nine has as yet never been defeated, but the Stan- fords are confident that they will take the | peacock-feathers from them, so an inter- | estin‘ game is being looked for between | them. | On Tuesday, May 21, at 8:30 p.

FAVORITES NOT IN LUCK Edgemount Defeated a Good Lot of Youngsters, With 8 to 1 Agalnst Him. The cut-in yesterday showed but ten bookies on the block. Sea Spray was the paddock tip for the “platz” in the second race. Playful and Charles A were backed off the earth, but the clip proved too fast for them. Ed Purser opened the day well by backing | Blue Bell and also had good bets down on Miss Ruth and Miss Buckley. Beginning on Monday next there will be but five races each day and the first event will not be called until 2:30 o’clock. The following good-sized bets were lately re- corded in the book of Jos.F.Ullman & Co., Chicago, on the Ullman handicap: $6000 to $300, $2400 to $300 and $900 to $300 straight, place and show on Rudolph, the wagers being made by G. W. Hankins & Co. A bet of $3750 against $250 Rey el Santa Anita, $2500 against $50 imp. Bathampton and $600 against $60 Dorian, are a few other large wagers recently recorded. The horse St. Jacob has been ruled off the track. It will be remembered that the son of St. Blaise won a hurdie race in which all bets were declared off. The event was a selling affair, and when put up to be sold the horse was bid up several hundred over his entered selling price, being finally retained by his owner. The horse was removed from the track that night by his trainer and the run-up money remained unpaid. The club was Te- cently in receipt of a letter from his owner, B. McGinley, a resident of Montana, in which he says that after consulting with several Mon- tana turfmen he has decided not to pay the run-up money, hence the action of the stew- ards.

The doctor thinks he will stay all summer, and pronounces this country a paradise for the sportsman. H. F. Eastman, steward of the Mendo- cino asylum, is our veritable Izaak Walton, He is from Erie County. Pa., where he had his first lessons. He has fished in some_of the best streams East and in Canada. He kindly granted the writer an interview, which was very gratefully accepted, know- ing that the readers of the CALL can learn something in the magnificent sport of angling from anything on the subject from Mr. Eastman. He is a prominent member of the Ukiah Sportsmen’s Club, and an enthusiast. The gist of his interview may be best given in hisown language, and runs thus: “I have been a lover of the sport since childhood, and consider that there is none other that offers so much pleasure and healthful exercise as angling. The true fisherman always is conscientious in indulging in this favorite pastime, and is mindful of the fact that streams should not be impoverished, nor other means resorted to than legitimate. Fish that re under size, 1 believe, should always be returned to the stream, if one has to go option of the 15th. The opposing team | will be made up by the Denver Athletic Club from its own members and picked athletes from the Colorado University. There will be twelve events, the 220-yard hurdle race and the mile run being elim- inated from the regular programme. Col- orado possesses no 220-yard hurdlers, and the altitude—5000 feet—has never yet per- mitted a man to run a mile and live. & The games with the Chicago Athletic Club occur on June 15, although Califor- nia again has the option—this time for the 12th. The Chicago team is composed of college men from the middle West, strengthened by Turner, the great ex- Princeton half-miler. June 10 the California team will contest either with the University of Wisconsin at Madison or the University of Illinois at Champlain. Illinois won the middle West championship of 1894, while Wisconsin has the strongest team for 1895. June 8 the Michigan boys want to try conclusions at Ann Arbor with the coast team. Here there is an option of the 5th, which will probably be taken. The Western collegiate games will be held in Chicago June 1. The California team, having been admitted to the associa- tion, may compete; if not Syracuse Uni- versity wants games May 29. The great Eastern intercollegiate, the Mott Haven Enmes occur in New York, May 25, with trial heats the 24th. No Westert. college, save Michigan, has ever competed in these games and the Univer- sity of California hopes to at least upset some of the Eastern calculations. Yale or the University of Pennsylvania seems likely to win. = May 18 the California team tackles the great team of the University of Pennsyl- vania in Philadelphia. Only first places will then count. How ; many can California_hope for against | Ramgdell, Orton, Jarvis, Bucholtz, Leslie e and Knipe? g ‘We have now gone far enough backward - f’f 2 to reach the first games, those with Prince- = ton, Saturday morning, May 11. Princeton is an historic old college, capable of pro- ducing “fine old gentlemen,” and certainly possessing many fine young ones. The campus is beautiful and so are the athletic grounds. There is a three-lap cin- der track, banked for the bicycle with a 120-yard straightway, though the high hurdles are run on a grass course. The weather here is as charming as a spring day at Berkeley, and the water is superior to the Berkeley water. Hence, I see nothing save the fatigue incident to trayeling across the continent in five days to detract from the performance of the Cal- ifornia team. The sprinters, hurdlers and jumpers will probably suffer the most from this. Hence, I expect Scoggins and Barnes to be defeated in the sprints, and Dyer and Torrey to fall in the hurdles, Patterson should win the jump, despite the journey. The method of scoring will be five points for first places, and three for seconds. It is not to be expected that the zames will draw very largely, since they have to be held in the morning, and since Western records are doubted here. All the colleges speak hlghly in praise of the energy dis- played by the university in attemptin, a trip, and of the all-around ability o% the team. There is a general desire to see Koch and Edgren perform. After the games to-day the team to meet the U. C. was chosen. There are twenty- three in the team.

The track was lightning fast and good time was made in the different races. But two fayorites—Blue Bell and Midas—were suc- cessful in bringing home the money for the talent, the remaining four events going to outsiders. The six-furlong handicap was the betting race of the day. Howard was favorite throughout the betting at 2 and 2} to 1, but he by no means carried the bulk of the coin.” Charles A was hammered down from 8 to 5 to 1, and a big plunge on Play- ful cut her price from 8 to 7 to 2. Quirt gpened at 7 to 2 and closed with fives about er. Overlooked, with 5 to 1 against her, Circe, away fourth, jumped into the lead and opened up a gap the field could never close. She passed the judges four lengths in front of Quirt, who beat Howard fully five Ienfths for the place. It was a re- markably fast ran—1:1314. The opening race at four and a halt fur- longs was a mere canter for the 5 to 2 fav- orite, Blue Bell, who led throughout, win- ning by two len%tlhs from Tobey, an 8 to1 c}l:nxéce. Julia Martin filly was a good third. But four decided to accept the issue with Midas in the second event on the card, a short six-furlon; st a 3 to 5 favorite. Commission and ico were both strongly backed for second position. Midas headed the others all the way, winning easily from Sea Spray, who downed Commission half a length for the place. The four and a half lurlon%enme for the “babies” wasa very open betting affair, Heartsease, Ediemuom. Rejected, Senator Mahoney and the Gypsette gelding all be- ing strongly backed. %he winner turned up in the Lone stable’s Edgemount,who went to the post 8 toland won driving bg alength and a half from Heartsease, Senator Mahoney was a close third. Opening at 8 to 5 for the fifth race, a five and a half furlong spin over the inside course, Morven was considered a ‘‘pipe” and was backed downto6to5. Joe Cot- ton ruled second choice, with Miss Ruth a strong third card. Morven led all the way until the flat to the wire was reached, when Miss Ruth came from third place and beat him out a length handily. Joe Cotton was a poor; third. There was a long delay at the post in the last race, also a five and a half furlong run over the main course, caused by the antics of Sir Reel, Miss Buckley and Soon Enough. The latter finally ran away with his rider, bumping into the fence and throwing him cff. When stopped opposite the saddling paddock the horse was very lame and was excused. The delay killed the chances of the 8 to 5 favorite, Middle- ton, who is a_thick-winded animal. hen finally sent away Nellie G and Alaric, to all appearances, had the race between them, and forty yards from the wire were fighting heads apart for the money. Atthis juncture Hinrichs brought Miss Buckley along with a rush from the far rear and nipped the race by half a length. Nellie G downed Alaric a nose for the place. MULHOLLAND. 4 2 SUMMARY.
