An Insight Into the Mysteries of This Popular Club. SAN JOSE, Can.. May 31, 1895.—On ay, May 25, Miss Lottie Brosius, der and Miss Pffenberger rode to land in four and one-half hours, Miss Brosius returning the same day in three and one-half hours, making the century yun in eight-hours. She rode a diamond- wheel weighing about twenty week I shall present Miss Brosius’ picture in her bloomer costume. This little lady is one of our best wheel-women, thinking nothing of riding to San Fraa- cisco and spending the day spinning about the City her not the least discomfort as she darts abont the erowded streets. Captain Celine Delmas of the Ladies’ Cycling Club has called a cherry run_for Monday, June 3.

Local dealers in sporting goods are daily receiving orders for trout flies from the MecCloud River district, where the trout are beginning to rise to the fly. They report that the streams are still high and cloudy. The salmon run of the week has been very light. Boats have not averaged two fish each per diem. The fishermen at- tribute it to the prevalent cool weather, and state that a few hot days will, without doubt, produce a heavy run. Shad, how- ever, are mote than plentiful. The Fish Commissioners are making a tour of in- spection among the various fish hatcheries of the State and will probably spenda week at Tahoe. To-morrow the Sacramento Athletic Club Wheelmen will have another go at their proposed century run through the mountains; they expect to make a go of it this time as the roads are fection. Eight members of the Cresent Wheelmen Club of Dixon came to this city on Thurs- day where they were A’oined by Messrs. Ripley and Upson and the entire party | made the run to Folsom and return. A new wheeling club has been organized at ‘Wooaland, having twenty members asa | starter, and Colusa possesses a club_ that starts with forty-five members, bidding fair to rank in point of membership with any club in the State before the season is { over. o Doves are reported as being abundant | this year, and the nesting season is in full wing in some localities; young birds have ready left their nests and the outlook for big bags is very promising.

This was the Crescents’ first victory: Later, in the Fabiola lantern parade in Oakland, the bicycle boyswon the valuable clock offered for the largest number of re) resentatives from any club outside of Oak- land. They had to compete with some of the largest and best-known clubs, such as the Olympics, Garden Citys, San Jose Road Club, California Cycling Club and many others. In Santa Rosa the Crescents distinguished themselves again. First Lieutenant Fred B. Wilkins won first prize for the best-appearing visiting wheelman on parade. Here were also great odds against the Crescents. The Acmes, Reli- ances and Bay Citys were also after this prize. On Wednesday and Thursday evenings of each week may be seen at the gymna- sium the club’s best athletes. Wednesday evening Professor Lean is there to instruct the boys in wrestling and gymnastics, and on Thursday Professor Bean instructs them in boxing. With such able instructors the club, will, no doubt, soon develop some good men. The most promising youn | athletes in the club are Cecil Reed, E | Kinne and Tom Rodgers. Thereare many others who are worthy of note, butthe three mentioned above are especially note- worthy. Among those who are destined to win_distinction in the ring are J.C. Berry, Fred Armstrong and C. McClellan. These gentlemen have always taken an unusual interest in boxing, and great things are expected of them in time to come. They, with gnssib]y two others, will be entered in the next boxing tour- nament to be held in San Francisco. Asis usual with all athletic clubs pos- | sessing a bicyele annex, the wheelmen | form the most important feature of this one. Captain O. A.

Do you know, girls do not try hard enough to please one another. They are too apt, alas! to save for the evening caller the smile that would have cast shadow out of a comrade’s heart earlier in the day. After all. these lords of creation are sorry kings upon a m’m\ling throne, and the new woman, arrayed in everything mas- culine but buckskin frousers, is simply going to turn that throne upside down and use the pieces to train the young idea how to shoot. True, when the crash comes she may be buried in the ruins, but little will she care as long as slie had the satisfaction of causing the commotion. One of the new women I do favor is the cool-as-an- icicle, bicycle, tricycle miss who pedals about our glorionus country in bloomers and sweater and_declares herself an in- dependent candidate for future health and happiness. The summer girls, arrayed in dainty silks and lawns, are sweet—certainly they are—but, like the finest cut glass, they are only for company. They are of little use, other than to smile prettily, sigh soitly, sing sweetly and die—bappily, knowing the swell undertaker will escort them to the door of the very best crematory, and their ashes will repose in a silver urn of the latest design. Bah! What we want to-day is 2 woman, not. a French doll—a living, breathine creature bubbling over with health and happiness, not a goddess paying doctor’s fees. Let Us, be-bloomered and be-jacketed, wheel away care and bring happiness to those around us. Don’t you agree with 'HE GIRL. e SACRAMENTO SPORTS. High Water Has Ruined the Nests of Water Fowl. SACRAMENTO, May 31.—Considerable rivalry exists among the lovers of trap and gun in this vicinity, and at present interest centers in the blue rock shoot which oc- curs on Sunday, June 2, at Eckhardt's shooting grounds at Agricultural Park. The programme as outlined comprises a match at 10 singles, $1 25 entrance; 25 singles, §1 75 entrance; 10 singles, $1 25 en- trance, and 25 singles, $1 50 entrance; open o all-comers. £ 5 Local sportsmen of the bustling little community of Lincoln are busily engaged in preparing a match for the Fourth of July at that place, and they claim that drawing inducements will be offered.

BERKELEY, Cin, May 31L—On Sep- tember 26, 1594, the following agreement ‘was signed by some of the best ciiizens of Otto A. Putzker, Captain Crescent Ath- letic Club Wheelmen, Berkeley. Berkeley, with the intention of forming a neucleus for an athletic organization, after- terward named the Crescent Athletic Club of Berkeley. *‘The undersigned form ourselves into a club for the encourage- ment of athletic exercises and games and to promote physical culture and social in- tercourse among its members.” This agreement was signed by about thirty of the most prominent citizens of Berkeley.

First Lieutenant bership has been steadily increasing, until now it numbers upward of 125, including ail of the prominent business men of Berkeley. Every precaution is taken by the directors not to admit to membership any who do not bear the best of reputa- tions, and it is owing to this fact that the club has been so successful. Among the members are some good ath- letes, and the club will be able to hold its own in contest with other and larger clubs before many more monihs. The boys bave taken the first prize in every event they have entered thus far, On the evening of February 21 last they \ Mr. Putzher hasnot done any racing for some time, but will undoubtedly be heard | from again this season.

Pete Kroman is another speedy young man, and will no doubt give a good ac- count of himself in the near future. Some of the other good wheelmen are Frank Thompson, George Wilcox and Bert Price. Messrs. Putzker, Wilkens, Kroman and Thompson have signified their inten- tions of entering tue Santa Cruz races. The club has a splendid opportunity to secure a new building. Ata meeting of | the directors held a few evenings ago a Ig;opo, on was presented by one of the ard which in all probability will lead to something definite. The gentleman who broached "the proposition is prominent in business circles in Berkeley, is wealthy, and has unbounded faith in the success of the Crescent Club. The new structure will be located on Center street, half a block from Berkeley station, and a stone’s throw from the university grounds. The building will be two stories high and have a frontage of 100 feet. In the rear will be the gymna- sium, dressing and bath rooms, while the front will be fitted up for stores. Upstairs will be several large rooms for the use of the members. The location is unsurpassed, being in the heart of town. The building will be fitted up with all the modern im- provements, and it is expected that within two months the new buiiding will be in cordition for the club’s reception. The officers and directors of the club are as follows: President, C. Mikkelson. The club could not have secured a more ardent and enthusiastic ruler. Vice-president, Charles C. Emslie. Mr. Emslie is part owner of the Berkeley Dispatch ; Secretary A. H. Harlin is also” connected with the Dispatch.

The Tule River Shooting and Fish- ing Association. VISALIA, Can, May 27.—In the descriptions of the many fishing clubs read about from time to time men- tion has never been made of the Tule River Bhooting and Fishing Association of Tulare County, which was organized in Porterville July 25, 1892, for mutual en- joyment and the protection of all fish and game for whicha close season is prescribed by law, ete. Tule River, which is a magaificent stream of water, runs all the year round, ana for about thirty miles makes one of the finest fishing resorts in the State. The club at the present time consists of about eighteen members and is 1 to twenty-five. Its clubhouse is sitfated on its own grounds, consisting of eight acres about twenty miles from Porterville in a shady spot on the bank of the river. Itis Harris, Ray de Morrow, " Smith. H a two-stor{; building and elegantly fur- nished with every convenience and com- fort for the members. The accompanying picture of the clubhouse will bear out this statement, and those of the river show the riffles and pools which abound ail over. The river is well filled with mountain trout and within the last two years has been stocked with over 60,000 Eastern trout (New Hampshires), In April, 1834, the association was incor- porated with a capital stock of $3000, diyided into twenty-five shares of the par value of $200 each. The directors are: John Sinclair, presi- dent; A. G. Schulz, vnoelfresident; E. New- man, secretary; J.C. Montgomery, treas- urer; Dr. W. C. Brumfield, Dr. J. L. Harde- man and Aubrey M. Lumiey. A county road runs to the club’s grounds, which can _be reached in a three hours’ drive from Porterville, Game is very plentiful in the mountains, especially quail, doves and wild_pigeons. Japanese pheasants will soon be given their liberty in parts of the country which will lease them. Some bob whites were turned oose a few months ago and are doing well. The outlook for good shooting in the future is first class. i About a year @5{; the Visalia Gun Club was organized with a dozen members, but the permanent organization was not ef- fected until Dece, T 20, 1894, Since that time the memBership has increased to sixty. 1t has a regular shoot every Sunday. and has develolped some of the best shots in the State, It sent two representatives to the State shootat Los Angeles, who held their own with the best shots in the State. The club started in with two old rusty traps, and they now have one of the best equipped shooting-grounds in the San Joaquin Valley. The club will Probnbly send a delegate to the meeting called by the Olympic Club, for the purpose of organizing a coast league, June 8. An invitation has been extended to all to attend a shoot at live birds and blue- rocks, to take place on July 4. The club is working in harmony with the Visalia Sportsman’s Club in protecting and propagating game and fish of all kinds, and it will not be long until this will be one of the best fishing and bunting locali- ties in the State. The wheelmen of Visalia are keeping well up with the times, as will be seen by a reference to the cycling column. ——— SPORT AT UKIAH. An Outing on the Eel River—A New Bicycle Club. UKIAH, Cir., May 28.—We wereall fixed for a fine outing, but a thunder shower for an hour or two on Sunday last spoiled it. But no matter, it freshened things up in fine style and washed the new foliage and abundant grass and flowers, and all nature here now has a holiday attire. Ukiah and its sporting opportunities and facilities are not t&be neglected this sea- son. Already visitors from the bay are here, and more are coming to inflate their collapsed Inngs with pure mountain ozone. I have written of the streams tributary to Russian River, and have spoken of the coast streams from Gualala'to Rockport, but the task is not half done. The great Eel River system drinks its first draught in our territory and trends northward through the prettiest redwood forest that the world ever knew. I should not have said “world”’—California only knows that tree, and Mendocino, I believe, has a monopoly of it. Just over a small divide making the boundary on the north of Potter Valley, and on the south Little Lake Valley, this grand system of rivers takes its first sips in spots_that would make the lover of nature and the outing sportsman jealous of the backwoodsman and his simple cabin! In the nity of San Hedrin Mountain there is nothing grander, no place that offers more in re- turn for the sacrifice, and no locality that has such an influence over the visitor to return. ‘We have wheels! Not in our heads, but the kind that “‘has come to stay,” and our bicycle riders now number well up in the forties. A club has been organized with twenty charter members in Ukiah. Fred Handy, secretary of the Mendocino Asy- lum, was chosen president; Miss Grace Cunningham, vice-president; Fred Chal- Mrs. H. B. Smith, One of Ukiah’s Best Cyclists. fant, captain; Johnny Keller, lieutenant; Orville White, secretary and treasurer. Our roads afford fine drives for the wheelers, as long stretches of smooth, hard driveways can be had in the valley and in and around the city. One of our most skilled riders and one of the first to use the wheel in this vicinity is Mrs. H. B. Smith, who is an acknowledged expert. he bicycle club will have a_field day some time in June. Nnarop. b O SPORTS AT LOS ANGELES. News of Interest to Wheelmen. Riverside Cyclists. LOS ANGELES, Car, May 31.—The greatest event of the year so far in Southern California was the big meeting of the Los Angeles wheelmen and their many visit- ors in this city last Wednesday and Thurs- day (Decoration day), and which certainly eclipsed anything of the kind ever before attempted here. The meeting really began on Wednesday evening with a splendid illuminated parade. Estimates differ as to the num- ber of wheels, but as phe number of appli- cations for positions in line exceeded 1200 it is fair to say that there were nearly that number in the parade. Some put the fig- ure as high as 1500 and over, but they are of the enthusiastic class, who usually see things a little bigger than they really are. The appearance dpresented in the parade was imposing, and as the column came down Spring street, cheered by the crowds gathered along the line of route, it was easy to comprehend the grip bic: cles have on the people of the city. In this city at least the wheel knows no age. It gathers them all in, for side by side with the “kids” of six can be seen the grandfathers and grandmothers bowling along under the burden of three score and more. The parade, which was under the direc- tion of Grand Marshal 8. H. Laverty, as- sisted by Richard Sullivan, chief of staff, formed at Fifth and Broadway at 7 ». M. and by 8 o’clock, it being then sufficiently dark for lanterns, was under way. The Toute was extended 5o as to give the dwell- ers in the central part of the city a view of the wheelmen, and the efforts of the latter seemed to be fully appreciated, for they received a corftinuous ovation along the line. Miss Annie Londonderry, the globe girdler, was assigned a prominent place in the line. Wherever she was recognized she was cheered as if to do honor to her pluck and %emvennce. The procession was ieaded by a_platoon of bieycle police specially detailed by Chief Glass to lead the column and a full brass band ina tally-ho lent an additional charm to the inspiring scene. Bicycle dealers will reap a rich harvest from that splendid parade. The real business of the meeting did not begin until the following day (Decoration day), when the races, according to pro- gramme, opened at Athletic Park. The attendance, notwithstanding an unpleas- ant southwesterly wind, was fairly good. It certainly would have been larger and the races shown faster time had the weather been more propitious. The events were well filled. The results have already been published in the telegraphic columns. In the evening the Los Angeles wheel- men entertained the visitors and friends with a “smoker”” and other delicacies at their headquarters at 2234 South Spring street. The evening’s programme con- sisted of some boxing and wrestling, not forgetting the awarding of prizes to the victors of the day. Los Angeles is said, by those who pro- fess to know, to be rapidly wheeling to the front as the leading city of the United States for cyclists, proportionate to popu- lation. Uptoa ‘i‘enr a% that honor was generally conceded to Denver, but it is now believed that Los Angeles can justly la{‘ claim to the distinction. here is talk among members of the Crown City Cycle Club of Pasadena of join- ing the League of American Wheelmen. The question will be presented to the club in definite shape shortly. It is to be hoped they will decide favorably, as the league deserves the suynort of every cyclist. The Ocean Wave Cycle Club has organ- ized at_Long Beach, with A. M. Goodhew resident. 'he membership of the Riverside Wheel- men is steadily increasing and now num- bers 115. It is expected to increase this number to 200 before the summer is over. Perris has gathered itself together and formed a bicyele club, with W. D. Newerf president. The new bicycle track now in course of construction at Santa Ana will be com- pleted by June 27, on which date it is ar- ranged to have a race meet under the auspices of the L. A. W. THE BAY DISTRICT RACES A Decision That Did Not Have the Approval of a Majority of Bettors. Nelson Galned the Verdict Over Tillle S, and Don Gara Nosed Out Heartsease. Starter Ferguson, it is said, will soon return to California. Hinrichs is on the ground, having been set down for five days by Starter Merrill on Wednesday. C. H. Durkee, the Los Angeles bookmaker, had a good-sized bet down on Tillie S. Johnny Coleman backed botn Tillie 8 and Miss Garyin. Mike Kelly, the clever trainer, thought him- self in hard luck yesterday. Both Heartsease and Tillie 8, who were nosed outat the wire, are in his charge. When put up to be sold Nelson, who won the opening race, was bid up$300 over his entered selling price of $300, and the bidder, Thomas Lundy, part-owner of Tillie S, who ran second, got the one-eyed horse at that figure. It is very doubtful whether he was much of & bar- gain. Strangely enough Heartsease, owned by Bookmeker Humphrey, end Senator Mahoney, the property of his cashier, met again in the second race, and as luck would have it both were entered to be sold at the same figure. It was a clever piece of handicapping on their owners’ part,but & public that is daily growing wise were Rot so gullible as was supposed, for nearly every bettor backed Heartsease, the Senator being almost friendless. The latter ran as though he had been driven from home, and a aelicious bit of sharp practice failed ut- terly. Itisonlyanother example of the fact that bookmakers or persons connected with the bookmaking business should be prohibited from owning race horses, and the sooner the Turf Congress passes a rule to this effect the better it will be for the American turf. Once more was a hostile demonstration made over the decision of the judges. In the first race yesterday the favorite, Tillie S, and the second choice, Nelson, passed the wire heads apart, the first choice, from an outsiders’ view of the finish, having decidedly the best of it. The judges in the stand, however, viewed it differently and placed Nelson first. At this a large crowd of angry bettors gathered around the stand making all sorts of angry gestures, and had Judges Riley and Trevathan been sud- denly cast down among them, their lives would have been worth about 2s much as a good fat missionary luckless enough to meet a group of hungry Fiji Islanders. Whether or not Tillie S won, Nelson tickets were paid and there the matter rests, food for chapters of hard-luck stories. Outside of the howl over the decision in the first race everything passed off quietly at the track yesterday. Incidentally there were three bad tumbles, all taken by the talent, but carried into the betting ring on a bookmaker's bier, they revived suf- ficiently to last the day out and jump on the last two favorites, who helped them out to a great extent financially. Third on the card the seven-furlong handicap was a decidedly strong feature from a betting standpoint. Thelma wasa decidedly strong favorite, 7 to 5 being the best that was ever laid against the brown daughter of John Happy. Howard was second choice at 4 to 1, with Realization g‘ressin him close but half a point higher. antell showed plenty of speed in his warming up gallop and the juicy odds of 8 to 1 against him cnuéht not a few. To a good start Thelma showed first, but was passed almost immediately by Realization, who, with Gussie at his heels, led the first half of the trip. Howard had taken command tnrning into the stretch, and he simply romped "home, passing the wire five lengths in_front of Thelma in 1:28%{. Mantell finished third a length further away, Merrell had a bad lot of horses to con- tend with in the opening race, a five and a half furlong dash, and they gave him so much trouble that fully forty minutes had elapsed before he dropped his flag to a rather straggling start.” It narrowed down to a duel between the favorite, Tillie S, and Nelson, the second choice, the latter get- ting the decision bf' a nose. Linville was a good third. OIld patched-up Rinfax backed down from a 100 to 15 to 1, finished back in the ruck. The second race, a four and a half fur- long spin for voungsters, resulted in another nose-and-nose finish. The 6 to 5 favorite, Heartsease, and Don Gara, a 5 to 1 chance, fought it out a1l the way, Shaw landing Don Gara winner by a couple of inches.” Monitor was an ordinary third. Opening at 1 to 2 for the mile selling race Captain Rees went back in the betting to 7 t0 10, when the money went in on ii and he closed at 1to 2 in the majerity of the books. The bookies seemed a bit wary of Rico, but nothing he showed in the race jmtifieéflus fear. % ‘When the flag fell Captain Rees went to the front, followed by Rear Guard, and they finished in this” order, the favorite winning easily by three parts of a length. Rico was an ordinary third, but a head in front of Charmer. % Morven struck his favorite game up and down the hills in the last race, a five-fur- long gallop, and starting at 6to 5 led from start to finish. beating Soledad two lengths with ease. Inkerman wasa bang-up third, MULHOLLAND. SUMMARY. SaN FraNcisco, May 31, 1895. FIRST RACE—Five and s half furlongs: 7T, Jolins: threcyear-oidsand upward: passe Ind. H eignt. jockev. St 34 Str.

FRUIT IS PLENTIFUL. Prominent Merchants Discuss the Re- cent Sharp Decline in the Price of Oranges. The recent sharp decline in the price of oranges was discussed by several fruit men yesterday. The senior partner in the firm of Eveleth & Nash said: “The one and only reason for the fall in prices of oranges is because they are out of season. In Riverside and the surrounding country there are cases upon cases of the fruit for which there is no market. I have just re- ceived a letter from a fruit-broker in which he says: ‘It looks as if we should have stock through June.’ This would be an abnormal condition of affairs. Many of the dealers wanted the auction, which we closed to-day, continaed for a longer time. But this was impossible, as the prices ob- tained were absurdly low. At this season or the year people eat more berries, cher- ries, raspberries, apricots and such fruit, for oranges are virtually stale. The large lot of oranges now on hand cannot shipped East, as they are too rive. The California dealers lost their chance when the Florida frost came. They put too hizh Frices on them,and Eastern consumers simply went to Valencia for the iruit. This is the consequence.” Frank Dalton of Dalton Bros. cor- roborated the statement of Mr. Eveleth, adding that “‘everything has its day, and that is the case with oranges, now that ihgl:{ies, strawberries, etc., are in the mar- cet. THE JAMIESON DIVORCE SUIT. It Will Be Heard in Judge Dainger- fleld’s Court To-Day. The divorce suit of Lochiel Jamieson against Gertrude Jamieson will be heard in Judge Daingerfield’s court this morning. This is a suit springing out of a sensational elopement of the defendant with one J. Arthur Turner from Victoria, B. C. The defendant, Mr. Jamieson, appeared with his counsel, Oliver Ellsworth, in court Vesterday, ready to proceed with the case. t seemed, however, that there had not been filed any formal substitution of attor- neys in the case, L. E. Phillips having withdrawn. A default of defendant has been en- tered, and it is not expected that there will be any difficulty in proving the plain- tiff’s case. There will be several witnesses called, but the bulk of the testimony will be in documentary form. Mrs. Jamieson is believed to be in Mexico. A LIVING SHADOW. From the Greenville (N. C.) Reflector. The following interview has just been given our re})or',er by Mr. G. A. Baker. the overseer at the farm of Colonel Isaac A. Sugg of Green- ville, N. C. It will interest any one who has ever had typhoid fever. Mr. Bakersaid in part: “I was living in Beaufort County, and on the 2d day of October, 1893, I was siricken down with typhoid fever. I had the best puysicians to attend me, and on the 15th day of January, 1894, 1 was allowed to get up. I was ema- ciated, weak and had no appetite. I could only drag along for a short distance and would be compelled to sit down and rest. This con- tinued for some time and I began to give up hope of ever getting well. Ilost my position in Beaufort County and, having secured one in Pitt County, clerking in a store, I under- took it, but was so weak Icould not do the work and had to give it up. The diseasesettled inmy knees,legs and feet. Iwas taking first one iind of medicine and then another, but nothing did me any good. I was mighty low- spirited. I moved out to Colonel Sugg's about four or five months ago and com- menced taking Dr. Williams’ Pills. I took three & day for esbout three months. I began to regain my appetite in & week's time, and then my weakness began to di > appear, and hope sprung up With a blessed- ness that is beyond all telling. At the ex- piration of the three months I was entirely cured and could take my axe and go in the woods and do as ;iuod & day’s work as any man. 1 was troubled with dyspepsie and that has disappeared. Itis also a splendid tonic for weak people. I say, Mr. Editor, God bless Dr. Williams, may he live for a long time. Iknow he will go up yonder to reap his reward, for he has done & wonderful lot of good. Tell everybody that asks you about r. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People, that if they will come to me I can certainly satisfy them as to their merits. Ialwayscarry a box of pills with me. Ican certainly satisfy them as to their merits. I always carry & box of pills with me, and whenever I feel bad 21 take one.” We were forcibly struck with the earnestness of Mr. Baker, and his statements may be relied on. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain, in a con- densed form, all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and re- store shattered nerves. They are an unfailing specific for such diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial paralysis, 8t. Vitus' dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rhéumatism, nervous headache, the after effects of la grippe, palpitation of the heart, fia!e and sallow complexions, all forms of weakness, either in male or female, and all diseases resulting from vitiated humors in the blood. Pink Pills are sold by all dealers, or will be sent post paid on receipt of price (50 cents a box, or six boxes for §2 50), by address- ing Dr. Williams’ Medicine Company, Sche- nectady, N. Y.
