THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, JUNE 15, 1895. 9 tained last Monday by the officers of the | water company at the reservoir in the Banta Cruz Mountains. After lunch fish- ing tackle and boats were furnished and the visitors enjoyed the finest black-bass fishing to be had on the coast. About 600 were taken, averaging from ten to twelve inches in length. The res- €rvoir covers about twenty acres and is | well stocked with black bass. It will not, , be lawful to catch bass until Trout fishing is now at its best and good catches are made in nearly all the Streams. The trout caught are nearly all of good size and but few finzerlings are in the messes brought home by the anglers. The Schuetzen Verein defeated the Union Rifie Club last Sunday, averaging 393 to the latter club’s 3714.° A match is being arranged between the Schuetzen Verein and a team from Comvany B, The monthly medal shoot of the Gilroy Bportsmen’s Protective Association was held last Sunday and was well attended. The medal was won by Ed Bannister, with & score of nine out of tyelve. S bty ESACRAMENTO SPORTING. Governor Budd Returns From a| Fishing Trip—Gun and Wheel. | SACRAMENTO, Car.. June 14.— The | in landing ninety-two as fine alot as any | Sportsman Club are now reaping the bene- | fip of their perseverance and industry in | the matter of stocking the streams of | Tulare County with different varieties of | pame fish. All of the streams and brooks | in the foothills and_mountaill$ ¢ now | well stocked with Eastern brook, lake ahoe and salmon trout and the Tiversof the valley are stocked with black bass, the r;sl':lt of the indefatigable industry of the clab. On last Saturdav six members of the club, including J. Sieb Johnson, the secre- tary, and W. T. Clotfelter, the attornev of the club, went on_a fishing expedition to what is known as Pumpkin Hollow ranch, near where the clubhouse is to be built in the near future. There they found the water yet pretty high, owing to the late spring, but had ‘an enjoyable day’s sport withal. Thongh the wary trout was not particularly voracious, the party.succeeded one would wish to see. This section of the country is bound to | be a paradise of sportsmen in a few years, | for the club has not confined its attention | to the streams; it is stocking the woods with choice game, so in a few years the crack of the rifle and shoteun will be heard as well as the click of the reel and the swish of the angler's fly. The club believes in the maxim, “Good sport, good citizens.” young athletes of the Sacramento High N‘hqol will hold their annual field day at Agricultural Park, in this city, next Satur- day, and are in active training for the thir- | tecn events on the programme, as follows: v ard, hali-mile and hurdle race, pol jump broad jump, 3 hammér throw, sixteen-pound shot-put, | baseball throw &nd & two-mile bicyele rac Among those who have near- | ly every member of the High School foot- | from Visalia.

In order to do this they had to eut through the ice. The dis- tance as the crow flies is thirty-two miles passed through a country where peaches | and plums are ripening, next where lemon and orange trees are in bloom, again finally into the snow. All this in Tulare County, all in one short day’s trayel. Can THE BAY DISTRICT RACES, The Julia Martin Filly Startled the Talent by Winning at 50 to 1. EDGEMOUNT WON CLEVERLY. Thelma, Overlooked, Proved Very Much of a Surprise Party In the Handicap. Chevalier again carrled off the riding honors yesterday, landing two winners. Johnny Coleman backed Hymn to win the handicap for several hundred dollars. A few Eastern bookmakers, satisfied with a percentage, would help the game at the Bay District materially. But nine firms cut in yesterday. Veragua's form in the two-year-old event diseppointed his backers very much, as he had won at the distance in the seme time as yester- day’s race was run in with more weight up. He blew up badly after half the distance had been fraversed. While two of the thoroughbreds in James Neil’s string, Rey del Sol and a two-year-old filly by Judge McKinstry, were being galloped on First avenue yesterday morning they took THE SACRAMENTO HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL TEAM.

They say that when the fall season | opens if granted a return game they will | make it far more interesting for their gal- | lant competitors. | The members of the Sacramento Ath-| letic Club Wheelmen made a run to Wal- | nut Grove last Sunday. There was a very | large meet, and the run was greatly en- | joyed. | A delegation from the club made a cen- | tury run to Stockton and return, some of | them adding twenty miles to the century | by returning through Walnut Grove and | making the run home in company with the other members of the club. Owing to the increased interest in \)i-; eycling in this city the wheelmen have | called a meeting to convene Monday night | for the purpose of reorga ng the Capitol | City Wheeling Club. They intend to start with a membership of 150 cyclists. Grass Valley has aiso organized a bicycle club, with the promise of a laree member- | ship. Ata meeting held last Wednesday evening the following officers were elected : Thomas Ingram, president; W. E. Par-| i sident; C._ Tyrrell, secre- | tary-treasurer; dire M. T. Hubbard, William Temby, iams, R. ‘Wedlock, E. Mainhart and Arthur Fisher. | A committee was appointed to select a snitable name for the club and it is pro- | sed to join the League of American | Whez]men, as there are many advantages connected with the league that can be ac- quired in no other way. Governor Budd, who has been sojourn- ing for the past week at Klamath Hot Springs, has been having famous sport | among the trout of that region. Casting with his left band, the right having been | crippled with rheumatism, his Excellency Janded seventeen fine rainbow trout, and | on the 6th inst. he killed seventy-five fish ith the fly. wAn lers ?rom the locality of Truckee re- rt the river full of sawdust, and the mat- &or will be investigated by the Fish Com- ission. mThe Grass Valley Sportsman’s Club will | hold its annual game stew on the 6ih of July. All the members will engage in a | dove hunt during the forenoon, and the birds killed will be handled in good shape by the club’s chef. The feast will be en- joyed by club members and their invited uests. BT F. McCraney, department clerk of the Supreme Court, has negotiated for a hunt- | ing lodge midway between Bartiett and Crabtree springs in Lake County. He has just returned from that locality, and states that people there report more deer in the | vicinity than was ever known before, and that the woods are literally alive with young grouse and mountain quail and the streams well stocked with trout. In fact, it is a veritable sportsman’s paradise. The Kimball and Upson bluerock tour- nament, open to all comers, begins this morning, but the principal events are re- served for to-morrow. The inducements are far above the average, and will com- mand the meet of the season. Fifteen of the leading shots of the bay clubs have promised to be present, and the list of clean scores will probably be numerous. In the principal event, which will be a match of twenty birds, for a shotgun, there will be all of seventy-five entries. This is the event of the season in this lo- cality, and Sacramento trap-shooters hope to redeem the resmga they lost at Marys- ¢ Ban ville, when rancisco boys whipped them. RUTHERFORD. S VISALIA SPORTING. | Streams That Have Been Stocked ° With Trout and Bass. VISALIA, Cavn., June 13.—The Visalia it be that Tulare County shall not be called | the Queen of the San Joaguin Valley ? Items regarding cycling matters in Vis- | alia and vicinity appear in the wheelmen’s column. At arecent meeting of the Visalia Sports- men’s Club the members_discussed plans for the season. 8. L. N. Ellis and J. O. Thomas both volunteered to loan their wagons and teams to transport fish to the mountains. Mr. Weaver has had two cans made by Herbert Askin for the purpose of trans- porting fish on horses tothe higher alti- tudes. The cans are nearly square but the tops are wide, o as to conform to the shape of a horse’s back. These cans can be packed on a horse safely over the mountain trails to the streams and lakes far back into the mountains. They will be fre- quently used this summer. Preparations are being made to stock a number of streams with trout where they do not now exist. AR, STOCKTON SPORTING. introducing the Tug-of-War—Train- ing for the July Regatta. STOCKTON, June 14.— Great prepara- tions are being made here for athletic | events on the Fourth of July. The chief | interest just now centers in the tug-of- war contests in the pavilion on the evening | of July 3. There are eight teams entered | in the contest, and the prize will be hand- some silver trophies in the shape of cups and urns, besides the prizes offered by local clothing firms for advertising pur- Pposes. The teams to contest are the American, Danish, Scotch, Irish, German, Italian, English and Canadian, and all are hard at work training for the contest. The finals will be pulled off at Goodwater Grove on the afternoon of the Fourth when the Stockton Athletic Association is to hold its field day. The following events have been decided on for this occasion: One hundred, 220 and 440 yard dashes; 120- yard hurdle race; putting 16-pound shot; throwing 16-pound hammer; rununing high jump: running and standing broad jump; pole vault; one mile bicycle race for novices; one mile hlndicn%ior class A men; one mile hand- feap for class B men. Gold medals will be given the winners of each event, and silver medals to the men taking second vlace. The men are busy training for the barge races on the morning of the Fourth. Of the junior crew the Salbach Brothers are the most likely oarsmen. In the senior race Butler will give way to Hart at stroke in order to enter the senior single-scull race. Butler is one of the best men on the coast in a shell. The new clubhouse of the Athletic Asso- ciation is completed now and will be ready for occupancy as soon as the apparatus ar- rives from the East. BURNED BY TRAMPS. Revengeful Nomads Set Fire to South- ern Pacific Uars. Two boxcars belonging to the Southern Pacific were burned early last evening, near Kentucky and Butte streets, Potrero. The police have lately been making a raid on a set of tramps that infest the Potrero, and a few days ago they drove a dozen men out of some boxcars that were stand- ing idle. Itis supposed that the work of firing the two cars t night was done by gome of the tramp gang as a return for being dislodged from their quarters, ———— It Sticketh Closer Than a Brother, Does the rTheumstism.

The | filly finally threw her rider, a younglad named Jimmy Griffin, and for a time it was feared he was severely injured, but, made of tough tim- ber,he was only severely bruised. The filly,quite & promising miss, cut and scraped herself badly, and will be thrown out of training for some time. Close and exciting finishes were in abundance at the track yesterday, and the nerves of the speculative fraternity under- went a very severe strain. With one ex- ception, every race was won in a hard drive and the winner scored either by a head or nose. It was another day of spicy miscellaneous mixtures, all sorts of shots scooting across the plate from an 8 to 5 favorite to a 50 to 1 outsider. The long priced outsider managed to squeeze through in the last race, a five and a half furlong dash, for which Morven went to the post a3 to 5 favorite. Major Cook was a decidedly strong second choice in the ring, the other starters all being quoted at long prices, a few straggling dollars cutting the odds against the Julia Martin filly from 50 to 40 to 1 nearing post time. Trouble was brewing for the favorites from the outset, for when the flag sent them away Crawford, a 12 to 1 shot, went out with him and the two set a terrific clip, being joined shortly by Major Cook. As they disappeared from view in the hol- low the race was in doubt, but as they struck the short flat stretch to the wire the favorite was still in front. Only for an in- stant, however, for Major Cook and Craw- ford both passed him, being followed a sec- ond later by the Julia Martin filly. The second choice and the two outsiders then indulged in a battle royal to the wire, Mar- tin by good riding getting the Julia Martin filly home first by a nose, with Crawford in secondhglace, the shortest of heads in front of the Major, _ . The talent received a severe shaking up in the six furlong handicap, which was considered a good thing for Hymn, who wentto the post a 9to5 favorite. Charmion was almost as well thought of, 2 to 1 being her closing odds, The priceagainst Arnette receded from 11 to 5to 7to 2 Thelma’s last performance was such a poor one, when she ran last all the way in a seven- furlong run on Monday, that ‘she was not very highly considered, although reported to be in fine fettle. A few took advantage of this, getting as good as 8 to 1against their money. The start was not one of Havey’s best, Hymn and Rinfax getting the best of a rather straggling go. Old Rinfax made a great showing in front for something over a furlong, when Thelma assumed the lead, holding it throughout, the brown daughter of John Happy émssmg the winning post two lengths ahead of Charmion, who came fast on the outside, beating fiymn out a long neck for the place. The performance was a very creditable one, the distance being covered in 1:1414. A seven-furlong race opened the day’s sfiort. Normandie and Hanford clashing in the betting for first choice honors, each at 13 to 5. Of the other starters, Don Casar, Tom Clarke and Jerome 8 received the most su¥gon. A e issue finally simmered down to a drive between Normandie, Jerome 8 and Hanford, the first named heating the rather injudiciously ridden Jerome S a nose on the wire. Hanford, who stopped badly the last sixteenth, was a close third. Six natty looking Ioungsters sported silk in the two-year-old event at four and a half furlongs, the Lone stable’s representa- tive Edgemount having the call at post time, backed down from 5 to2 to 8 to 5. He got away in the lead and was never headed, winning by a length in a mild drive from Zeta. Tiberius ran a greatly improved race over the day preceding, finishing third, but half a length away. 0Old Hy Dy wasa 2to 1 favorite for the mile selling race, but he never got near enough the front to look dangerous. Road Runner was undoubtedly the best backed horse in the race, but Shaw had one of his bad turns—and that’s sufficient. After the field had passed the half Chevalier took the lead with Sympathetic’s Last, 2 10 to 1 chance, and through Shaw’s bungling finish on Road Runner, managed to win by a neck. Hy Dy finished third, a couple of lengths away. MULHOLLAXD. SUMMARY. Sax Fraxcisco, June 14, 1895, 1039, FIRSTRACE—Sevenfuriongs: selling: + purse £300. Ind.

CHESS BY TELEGRAPH. Games Between Vancouver and San Francisco Practically Decided in Favor of the Local Teams. The second international chess match between two teams from the Mechanics’ Institute and two teams from the Van- couver Chess Clab was played last night by telegraph, the players being in San Francisco and Vancouver, B. C. Play began at 6:33 o’clock. The team representing the Mechanics’ Institute at board 1 had the first move and opened with P-K4. Their opponents in Vancouver adopted the French defense by replying with P-K3. The local players had a decided advantage after the first eleven moves. The Vancouvers had a hopeless game at 11:40 p. M, oard No. 2 was an _open game, the British players having adopted the Scotch ambit and did not recapture the pawn on heir fourth move, thus getting a quick development, which, however did not rec- ompense for the loss of the pawn. The local players had the best game after Vancouver’s seventh move. At 11:40 P. M. the Britishers had a lost game. e e et Bicycle Kiders Shouldn’t Wear Long Whiskers. —8t. Louls Globe-Democrat WS B N LEKGTYS FOREMAN CHARLES ROLFE, Cornell Defeats Pennsylvania in the Two-Mile Boat- race. QUAKERS ARE FAR OUTCLASSED Freshmen Put Up an Interesting Rowing Contest on Cayuga Lake. ITHACA, N. Y., June 14.—The first an- nual race between the freshmen eights of Cornell and the University of Pennsyl- vania was rowed this afternoon at Cayuga Lake over the two-mile course, and Cor- nell won by nine lengths in 11 minutes 18 3-5 seconds. ‘With the exception of a few light show- ers in the fore part of the afternoon, which quieted the waves, the day was perfect. The attendance was 6500. The race was started prompily at 6:10 o’clock, Pennsylvania taking the water first. Cornell rowed 44 strokes and Penn- sylvania 88. The Pennsylvanians did a great deal more splashing than Cornell, and Cornell’s machinery now in motion soon commenced to tell. The rowing of Pennsylvania was very ragged during the second half mile, the men being all doubled up. Cornell passed the mile point a full two lengths ahead. Pennsylvania now commenced to row steadier, but Cornell had the stroke at 42 to Pennsylvania 36. At the mile and a half Cornell had increased her advantage to five lengths ahead, while her stroke had been increased to46. Cornell finished in magnificent style, each man working with accuracy and with a stroke of 46,a full nine lengths ahead of the Quakers. Penn- sylvania crossed the line 32 seconds later. FOR GET-AWAY DAY, Starters, Weights and Jockeys in the Suburban Handicap. NEW YORK, N. Y., June 14.—To-mor- row will be Get-away day of the Coney Isl- and Jockey Club’s opening meeting and the attraction on the programme will be the historic Suburban, the greatest equine event of the racing year. The Suburban this year is of fess value than ever before. This was made necessary by uncertainty that surrounded the race when the stake was offered. However, the horse-owner does not value the suburban for its money. It is the honor of winning this great han- dicap that is coveted. Following are the entries, weights and probable jockeys: Sir Walter, 126, Doggett; Domino, 123, Taral; Rubicon, 119, W. Midgley ; Lazzarone, 115, I. Murphy; Sister Mary, 115, Hamilton; Declare, 108, J. Lamley; Song and Dance, 99, Griffin. The withdrawal of Ramapo has been a great factor in the interest in the race. In the seven entries three are confessedly out only for second or third money. Song and Dance is the lightweight of the party, baving to take up but 99 pounds, although with Griffin in his saddle he will have to carry several pounds over weight. Declare was only decided upon as a starter after Ramapo had been scratched, Mr. Dwyer thinking that he had a fair chance to be third at least, and if the track should happen to be wet there is no telling where he might land. Rubicon has not shown his ability to go the distance thus far, and McDonald has hopes of one of the places after the winner. Sister Mary is a most erratic performer, and so far in the East has not shown that she belongs in the class with the others. This leaves Sir Walter, Domino and Lazzarone as the most likely contenders. Sir Walter is the top weight, but he has time and time again shown his ability to carry weight and win in fast company over the distance. He is oneof the gamest horses that ever looked tnrough a bridle, and can be depended upon to exert every ounce of strength before he gives up. Lazzarone was the second horse in the Brooklyn handicap and tgkes up 115 pounds. This is two more pounds than he carried then, and it should not make any difference tohim. He was a disappoint- ment to his owner after that race, for he ran twice and was nowhere. Since then he has had a rest and may do better, but he was always an uncertain beast. If Isaac Murphy will only ride with as good judgment as he did in the Brooklyn handi- cap Lazzarone is by no means out of the race, for he, too, can go the distance. Domino is the other and the oddson favorite. He has to take up 123 pounds, with Taral on his back. According to his work he looks to be a sure winner and few of the trainers at the track are willing to concede his defeat. The few who have pinned their faith to Sir Walter and Laz- zarone declare Domino is nothing buta sprinter. Mr. Keene seems sure his horse will win and the trainer, William Lake- land, will not allow any talk of defeat on Domino. Domino has raced but three times in his life at over a mile and did not cover himself with glory either time. Domino is in a tight box, for if he setsa hot pace he will have Sir Walter and Laz- zarone to contend with at the end, and if it is a slow pace the Rubicon may give him trouble. CRIPPLED, BUT VERY GAME. California Athletes Determined Bravely Battle With Chicago. CHICAGO, Irr, June 14.—With the ex- ception of their Pennsylvania games the Berkeley boys have never dreaded any meet so much as that with the Chicago Athletic Association to-morrow. Not that the boys fear their opponents—they have too much California pluck for that—but Dozier and Bradley are crippled, and the Californians fear that they cannot over- come the handicap occasioned by thus leaving no ¥ntry in the bicycle race and mile run. Crum is expected to win both sprints for Chicago. Scogginshas aneven- time opponent for second-place honors in 'W. C. Skillinger. Kenneth McCrea, the great Australian, is pitted against Koch in the half and quarter. Allowing that he is in form, it is believed that Koch can defeat him, even if he makes record-breaking time. After running the half both men start in the quarter. The Chicago Athletic Associa- tion banks on Jackson to win here, but California with Barnes and Koch must score one-two to make a winning total of points. Chicago will take all the points in the mile run and the cycle race. Torrey and Dyer in return must win first and sec- ond in both hurdle races. Crum will start against them in the low hurdles, but what will he do? Merwin has a lame back, but to Superintgndent of One of the Biggest Composing Rooms in America, Up in the top story of the Globe building, where the typesetting and other machines doeverything but talk, says the Boston Globe, there is a pleasant-faced, clear skinned, light-complexioned man of 52, who has been with the Globe ever since the birthday of that great paper. He is the night foreman of the composing-room and looks fully fifteen years younger than he really is. Rolfe. Nervous headaches that well-nigh drove | him to distraction first introduced him to | Paine’s celery compound. That was five years ago, and until that time he was one of the most pronounced opponents of pre- pared remedies to be found in the city. Just how Paine’s celery compound was first brought to his attention he does not remember, but it has done him so much good that the compound has no more en- thusiastic champion living. He is as happy as any one in the enjoyment of good health could be, and for that happi- ness he gives full credit to Paine’s celery compound.- Read what he has to say about the medicine: “I am always ready to recommend Paine’s celery compound when I hear of a case similar to my own. Some five years ago I was suffering from headaches which ‘were sometimes so severe during working hours of the night that T would clasp my hands over my head to ‘hold the top on,’ the pain being excruciating. These at- tacks would occur sometimes as often as three times a week. Sleep was out of the question, the pillow seeming but a block of wood. “Just at the time I was suffering most I bought a bottle of Paine’s celery com- pound, began at once to take it, and before a week had passed the headaches began to His name is Mr. Charles | \ VM | Ak (A ','i ’?l‘:,’ A O ”y‘ Wy ' i Vg disappear.

It never failed in giving me relief, The other members of my family also be- gan to take it—my wife for a feeling of general weakuess, she being at that time much ‘run down’ and never feeling well enough to perform the work of the home. Within a week she was, as she expressed it, ‘as well as ever in her life,’ and similar reports came from all our friends to whom we had recommended it. ‘‘I feel confident that in nervous head- aches and a ‘run down’ system the com- pound will be beneficial every time, if not a perfect cure, “In some instances we have not énly recommended it, but furnished it to very aged friends, and the effect of one bottle has seemed marvelous, one particular old friend of mine telling me that before one bottle had been used he ‘felt at least ten years younger, and certainly had not felt as good for ten years.” “During the last five years T have used a great many bottles of the compound—that is, in my home. Iam positive that it is a sure cure for nervous headaches and a | broken-down feeling, especially in the case of elderly persons. “There is one case in particular I call to | mind in which Paine’s celery compound | asserted its good qualities.” We had a ; young married lady friend, who was nurs- | ing her four-months-old child, and found | that she could not perform her household duties on account of the weak condition she seemed always to bein. On the recom- mendation of my wife and myseif she took one bottle of the compound, and before two weeks had passed was able to do her own washing even, in addition to house- work. About three bottles were used. I have yet to hear from any friend to whom I recommended it other than the most favorable results.” ——————————————————————————e e Edgren expects to break his record. Harry Cornish, the gentlemanly manager of the C. A. A., has thrown out the pole vault, and is almost willing to do the same with the cycle race, but California asks no favors. If beaten to-morrow the men will be car- ried from the finisi with ‘“our shields upon them” as their motto. Hess, Skil- linger and Rossiter of the C. A. A., may be protested on account of reported disquali- | fication by the A. A. U. The Californians | realize their crippled state, and that a team | of men picked from New York to Mel- bourne is opposed to them. Still they will do their best and never say die. ONE RECORD REDUCED.
