(to give the scorchers a chance). The invitation wiseiy says: ““‘All members who prefer a comfortable trip should be ready to start at 7:30 o’clock,” and, as Goadard would say, “That’s no josh,” for with Carey leading and several tandems doing the pacing it will be a ride for life, almost, to keep up. After the road race the club will ride to Centerville for dinner. The Crescent Road Club will ride to Hay- wards to-morrow to see the road race, tak- ing the 9 o'clock creek-route boat. The club had a very enjoyable run last Satur- day and Sunday to Santa Rosa. 'he Royal Cycling Club is soon to have an election, and nominations will be made { next Tuesday night. The club, of course, ill have a run to the finish of the road e to-morrow, having five men entered in the event—Fred Schone, A. Cooper, Joseph Lubin, Guy Frost and Irving Fran The club is going to form a base- ball nine, having among its members that | many clever players of the National game. | The following are newly elected members: | Fred Schone, John Staiford; A. Lyons and i John Curry. Fox of Los Angeles is in the n bis way home after an Eastern trip. He will be remembered as the rider who came up here in 1893 and had things ically his own way, winning as he Even the old warhorse Foster, who was sadly out of condition then, had | to admit that Fox was very speedy. Heis doing but little racing now, confining him- self to business. He is representing the Fowler in Southern California. Captain Fre Butz of the Olympic | Cylers, whose picture is presented to-day, | has not been a wheelman fora great while, but has long enjoyed an enviable reputa- | tion as a champion all-round athlete. He ; | is a handsome fellow, as you can see by the | ture, of herculean build, heighing over | | 200 pounds—just the sort of man to lead the cyclers, a large percentage of whom | are heayy-weight athletes. Captain Butz enjoy 2ood will of all his followers, and hi ds in this City are legion. {.

The Olympic Cyclers have no run called | for to-morrow, but Sunday week they will have a picnic run to Millbrae, and after the lunch some impromptu road races will be run off to decide questions of speed | among the members.

A road race among the mem- bers is proposed, and if the handicapping | can be correctly done it should prove very interestin; Perhaps the Olympic Club Wheelmen | have a run called for to-morrow, but if so it must be very select, for I can hear nothing of it. If the secretary would bury a few of | his petty personal grievances and send the press notices of the club’s runs it might be better for the latter. It is only by con- bers that anything can be found out about | stant versonal inquiry among the mem- ! i | lub’s doings, which are few enough at | best, and yet the complaint is made that | the O. C.

There is no intent | u, gentlemen; only put us on | our mailing list again, and don’t let our | { name be taken off this time, and we'll at- | | tend to the rest. | ¥ Monday evening, October 31, 1895, at | S o’clock, there will be a meeting of repre- | | sentatives from each cf the bicycle clubs of San Francisco to consider the question of a bicycle ordinance to be submitted to | the Board of Supervisors as expressive of the opinions and desires of the wheelmen of San Francisco. It is the d e of the organized wheel- men of this Uity to effect the pa ssage and enforcement of such an ordinance as will e end desired by all good at the same time preserve those rights and vrivileges which they claim in common with the drivers of other vehicles. The ladies’ annex of the Liberty Cycling | Club will have a run through Alameda to | Laundry Farm, each rider carrying her own luncheon. They will leave on the 9o'clock creek-route boat. These picnic outings of the annex have proved very en- joyable and w:ll be continued until the season closes, The Imperial Cycling Club has elected the following new members: J. L. Cahill, A. Frary, C. A. Westcott, F. W. Reichers, J. P. Griffin, J. Staats, C. A. Wilson, T. Hallinan and M. Howell. To-morrow the club goes to Haywards to see the road races and expects to see Frank M. Byrne up near the front at the finish. The Verein Eintracht Cyclers will have a run to the beach to-morrow. The Alpha (ladies) Cycling Club, in | charge of Captain Addie Wynne, will ride | to Haywards to-morrow. SPALDING. e AMATEUR BOXING. The Olympic Club’s Speclal Match Contests—Hlssing Not Allowed. The Olympic Club special boxing-match contests, which are slated for next Tues- day evening, are creating more interest among the members than any feature of athletic sport that has been introduced in the club for many moons. The fact that representative boxers under the colors of the San Francisco, Sacram ento, Reliance and Olympic clubs, will compete on the evening in question for the very handsome prizes that will be given to the champion contestants, 1s 1n | itself sufficient to arouse an unflagging in- clubs who take pleasure in witnessing good athletic sport. Asa majority of the young men who will contest ar¢ members of the Olympic Club itis but reasonable to presume that the wearers of the flying ©*0” are taking no small interest in the outcome of this particular series of matches. Some years ago, when the Olympic Club Wwas in reality the only athletic institution on the coast of any import, the interest displayed by its members in tournaments | outlook for substitutes—that is, in case of of any description was somewhat luke- warm, and that was accounted for in the fact of the contests being, so to speak, one-sided affairs. Time, however, has brought abouta very material change, and of course it 1s all for the better in the in- terest of the various kinds of athletic games now in vogue. o The fact that boxing leads in popularity and general interest all other kinds of ath- letic sport is proven by the great demand that is now being made upon the directors of the Olympic Club for complimentary tickets. But Manager Kennedy positively states “nix,” and his word is as good as his order for—well, hot tamales, The directors will not issue any complimen- taries, therefore any person who wishes to be a spectator on Tuesday evening next must join the club, as there is no other alternative. The representatives of the Sacramento, San Francisco and Reliance clubs are at this writing in excellent condition, and the | attacks of weak heart and shaky feet, which had been of such common occur- ence in the past—is, happily, very un- promising. It is hoped that the members 6f the club who are thoroughly imbued with club spirit will keep in mind that ina boxing contest there are always two performers in Caie It has been a common occurrence at several of the past boxing matches that when an Olympic Club man was defeated by a representative of another club the judges were hissed; and, by the way, this system of testifying disgust is compara- tively of recent introduction. Club spirit, as previously stated, should not blind any spectator—that is, so far as seeing only the performance of one of the contestants during a bout. Hissing shows very bad taste at all times. Fortunately, there are, however, but few members of the Olympic Club who resort to this means of displaying their disgust of what they mli consider a wrong decision. The judges, no doubt, are impartial and will not intentionally favor either of the contestants because of the colors they wear. The mempers should certainly make some allowance for the gentlemen who kindly consent to act as judges and not jump at wild conclusions. It would materially improve the good standing which the Olympic Club now enjoys to weed out those who hiss the decisions of a referee and judges. Truesportis the sport of gentlemen. 3 The following are the boxers who will don the mittens on Tuesday evenin H. Smith vs. J. Dodd, 113 pounds Raphael vs. R. Cuneo, 128 pounds; J. A. McGinley vs. W. Birdsali, 135 pounds; L. J. Payen vs. 8. Carter, 145 pounds; J. Reay ‘vs. B. Brown, 157 pounds; J. Ken- nedy vs. T. Van Buskirk, 185 pounds. PR i THE OARSMEN. An Interesting Letter From Henry Peterson—A Race Over Long Bridge Course. From all accounts the coming Austin (Texas) regatta will not be a great success. No doubt this is owing to the unreliability of pulling off the great fight at Dallas, from which place a large crowd was ex- pected to witness the big boatraces at Austin. So far only nine oarsmen have entered in the races. Henry Peterson of San Fran- cisco—Jake Gaudaur and brother of St. Louis, Rogers, Teemer and the four-oared crew from England. The long list of prizes which was orig- inally offered has been cut down to three. A letter from Henry Peterson under date of October 6 to William A. McGrill of this City has this to say about the regatta: “I arrived in Austin last Friday, after a | tiresome journey. On my arrival I was informed that the rezatta wasnot arranged like the two previous regattas I attendea. There are but thrze prizes, and to win any- thing you must get first. “I was to row with Gaudaur in the double and in the four, butnow I find that he has taken his brotner, so that will shut me out from winmng in the double or| four, and now my only chance is in the | single shell. If I had known this I would not have come here. “The manager said he would see that I doubled np with somebody; if not I don’t propose to stop here and spend $400 with only one chance. Iam rowing nine | miles a day—four in the morning and five | in the afternoon. ‘“‘Rogers and Teemer row double, and so do Gaudaur and brother and I have no partner. There will be four Englishmen | and five Americans in the races, and the entire party will arrive at Austin in two | weeks.” Peterson does not expect to make the showing at this regatta that he made at the previous one, owing to the limited time he has to train, which is four weeks. It will be remembered at the previous | regatta Peterson and Gaudaur each broke the world’s three-mile record after one of the hottest races ever rowed in a shell. They finished within four feet of each other, and Gaudaur, the winner, was so prostrated that it was «n hour before he entered another race. Gaudaur has been training faithfully for the coming regatta, expecting a_repetition of his former contest with the strong- armed puller from San Francisco. The dispute as to which was the faster— | a pair-oared shell or a four-oared barce— was_settled last Sunday over the Long | Bridge course. After rowing three-quar- | ters of the course, with the pair-oared shell an easy leader all the way, the barge crew gave up the race. The members of the barge crew were: George T. McGinnis. bow; Fred Pless, for- wardwaist; J. T. O’Neil, afterwaist; Bob Elis, stroke, and Ed Wilson, cockswain; W. J. Prendergast and Al Carroll rowed | the double scull. The Pioneer Rowing Club will hold a regatta to-morrow at Long Bridge. The races will start at 11 A. 3., and the prizes will be French dinners and theater tickets tothe winners. The crews to contest are: Juniors’ boat Veronica—R. J. Espy, stroke; Jack Klunder, afterwai Espy, forward- waist; M. Callanan, bow. Boat J. R. McDonnell—Dan Fitzsimmons, stroke; F. Nichols, afterwaist; W. St. John, forwardwaist; R. Collopy, bow. Seniors—Fred Orr, bow; Coney Ochs, for- wardwaist; George Collopy, aiterwaist; J. Clifford, stroke. This latter crew will row the married men, whose personnel is as follows: J. Sullivan, stroke; Dan Leahy, afterwaist; Robert Crowley, forwardwaist; W. Ellis, bow. | Dan Fitzsimmons and A. Johnson, an | Alaska fisherman, will give an exhibition of Indian canoe racing. The referee will be J. E. Judges—James T. Powers, J. and W. A. McGill. Timekeep:r—John T. Sullivan. Cockswains — George Fitzsim- mons, Doc Flynn and F. Kaufman. At a meeting of the Pioneers held last Sundzy the following officers were elected for the eusuing year: President, W. C. Espy; yice-president, M. Callaghan; re- cording secretary, F. J. O'Neil; treasurer, J. F. Sullivan; c:\}rtain, Fred Orr; vice- captain, George Collopy; trustees—Robert Espy, J. Klunder and J. E. Brennan; ser- geant-at-arms, F. Kaufman; delegate to P. A.A., W. C. Espy. Four new members were added to the club’s roll, whom the Pioneers think will make a rattling crew. They are James Powers, Phil Reid, Charles Harrison and Walter Campbell. Neither of them is over 20 years of age and all weigh over 160 pounds. At a meeting of the Ariel Boat Club the other night it was decided to join the P. A. A. The oarsmen nf this club are training for the Thanksgiving day regatta at Ala- meda. Eight new names were proposed for membership, and the coach of the club has four promising single scullers in train- ing. They are Edward McCausland, George Wilson, Andy Carrol, at one time the club’s cockswain, and N. J. Prender- gast. They will all be seen in the Alameda races. The University Fifteen Boat Club of Oakland is having a four-oared barge built, and by next spring it will have a regular crew in training. e s bk ANGLING. Bass Fishing In Russian River—Good Reports From Fort Bragg. The success of anglers who visited Dun- cans Mills last Saturday in quest of black bass was far from good. Charley Precht and Charley Green did very well. They spooned all day, and as a result of perse- verance they finished with a catch of eigh- teen nice fish. Anglers who fished higher up the river, in the vicinity of the old Bo- hemian camp, did much better, and their fish had a much superior flavor to those taken near Duncans Mills. Al Cumming discovered a stream last Sunday from which he took something like 500 trout, and all of good size. As Cumming’s veracity cannot be very well uestioned it must be taken for granted that the new discovery will be warmly, in fact lovingly received by all those who fancy stream fishing—that is, when the discoverer is ready to state where this grand stream is and how it can be reached. 1t is hoped that the famous handler of the bamboo has not the Little Truckee in his mind’s eye. ‘The following very interesting letter from the Hon. James Watt, inventor of the now charming and successful Watt spinner, will be read with much interest by anglers: H Ihave just received a letter from W. J. Sur- ryhne of Fort Bragg, Mendocino County. He says that the fishing in a vlace called the canyon, on the Noyo River, is excellent right now. He also says: “Soon after receiving your spoon I tried it at Pudding Creek. Therc was asalmon lying under the bridge all summer, but was shy, having been hooked several times, but always managed to get away. I put on your spoon and cast it mearly across the creek and then drew it over the place where he generally stayed, but he did notrise, so I tried it again and let it sink deeper, and as I drew 1t slowly along the bottom he grabbed it and away he went. I had quite a time landing him. e was & beauty and weighed six pounds.” The following recently appeared in an English exchange regarding salmon-fishing in the north of gcotlnnd: Brennan.

On Huntley Lodge section during last week eight salmon were landed, one of which scaled twenty-elght pounds. On the hotel water a few nice fish were aiso had of good average weight. On the Kingcausie water A. E. Manus took twelve fine fish, rang- ing from eight to eighteen _pounds, during last week, 1! with the fly. The condition of the water on the Findhorn has very much im- roved and a considerable number of fish have een seen. On Messrs. Stewart & Son’s run of the river C. Fletcher, Greenwood Cottage, landed asplendid salmon on Friday weighing twenty-one and a half pounds, and Ronald Brodie of Brodie on the same day got a fish of nine and a half pounds. On Saturday Lord Chelses, at xresem sv.nyini: witn Lord Abing- ton, Brodie Castle, Forres, landed & fine trout of ten pounds. R g SWIMMING.

The handball players of the Olympic Club, who are in training for the tonrna- ment which will be held on Sunday, the 20th inst., will assemble to-morrow fore- noon at the outside grounds for practice. Some interesting zames will doubtless be witnessed, as Professor Kennedy and John Mallon have arranged for a special match, best two in three games, of 101 aces to the game.
