Pixley, an old-time wheelman of this City, who was at one time captain of the old San Francisco Bicycle Club, long since defunct, has been elected to the vacan: The coincidence is amusing and is giving added interest, as the Road Club is now located next door to where the San Francisco Bicycle Club was before it finally gave up the ghost, selling out its furnishings to the Bay City ‘Wheelmen.

He has been with Zim- merman in Australia and passed himself off on an unsuspecting reporter fora morn- ing paper as the champion’sadvance agent, as it were. It was a funny joke on the re- porter, for I am told that Waliord cut very little figure in the Zimmerman party, and | this fact is borne out by the following squib in the_ American Wheeiman, one of the leading Eastern cycling publications: “Young Walford is the man who has made the Australian trip of Zimmerman a fizzle. He is a ‘grafter’ and the Australians never did like ‘grafters.” When he grows’ older he will grow wiser.” The champion and his party may pass through here oa their way East upon the | arrival of the next steamer from the Anti- podes. If he does there will be a track in the Pavilion, perhaps, about that time, and we will see him race, after all. Chief Consul Kerrigan has issued a neat little pamphlet entitled, *‘Objects and Methods of the League of American Wheelmen, and its claims on wheelmen for patronage and moral support.” It is cleverly got up and is_very readable, and can be had free by applying to Mr. Kerri- gan by mail at the new City Hall or to THE CALL cyeling editor. ery wheeiman should join the L.

On sustaining a puncture the cyclist’s first sensation is naturally one of disgust, and the inclination immediately follows to | hunt up the nearest repair-shop. This is unsntishctorf, however, as the repair- | shop is usually far away; and even when there is one at hand the chances are that the repairer would use the wrong repair material or perhaps not know how to re- | pair_the puncture properly. But if the | cyclist has a repair-kit—and it is some- | thing that should always be carried—the proper insertion of a blunt-edeed patch- | plug, with ample base to sustain it on the | inside of the tire, will make it safe and | sound every time. | Thereis a small and complete repair- | kit, which is made to put in your pocket | and which contains aFl the implements | necessary for repairing punctures, in ad- | dition to a tubs of cement. Any one can | carry an outfit of this kind without the slightest inconvenience, and it will likely save considerable annoyance and trouble when aid is most needed. D. J. Shafer’s portrait is presented with this article, and about him many interest- ing stories could be told. He came here last Sunday with the racer, Wells, from San Diego. " They tried to get Ziegler for the Syracuse team, and have probably succeeded. Shafer returned south Wednes- day morning, and will be here later on with his entire racing team. He has been a trainer of athletes for twenty-two vears, and bicycling is the best sport of them all to his mind. He first came to this coast in 1893 with J. Pye Bliss and Mike Dernberger, who raced at the Midwinter Fair tournament. Last season he was on the National circuit handling Sanger, Cabanne and Titus, the greatest trio of racers ever joined in one team. Through Shafer’s skillful manage- ment they about carried things as they pleased, and, up to the time when he met with a series of accidents, Cabanne was winning more races than any man on the circuit, ana beat Bald repeatedly. Then for a time Shafer took Sanger alone and they went on the trotting-horse circuit, racing against Johnny Johnson, Harry Tyler and men of almost equal speed. Here they made a great clean-up in cash prizes and wound up a glorious | | | | | make him out to be. | personal knowledge. everybody knew it. After this Sanger re- tired for the winter, and Shafer, not wish- ing to be idle, accepted an offer to go to San Diego and tram Hamilton, Wells, Ter- rill, Rigby, McCrea and several more. Their success in lowering records there is directly the result of his employment. Shafer talks in an entertaining way, and sat for several hours at the Bay City Wheelmen's rooms the other night, with a large crowd around listening to his recit- als, He says he feels confident Cabanne and Murphy are not %ui]ly of fixing a race at St. Louis, for which they were expelled, and is surprised Fred litus admits his guilt, as he didn’t think he would ride un- fairly. He says Sanger1s the best man in the world to-day on a wheel, Johnson next, Tyler next and then Bald. The latter, with Cabanne, Titus, Cooper, Gardiner and Ziegler. are about on equal terms. There never was a man like Zimmerman, and he thinks there never will be. Sanger 1s a nice man to handle—good-natured and easy-going. Bliss was the same. Dirn- berger, Cabanne and Titus were hard to control. The two latter always wanted to fight, and Cabanne, who had a reputation as a crack boxer, would go up to big Sanger, who weigh: pounds, and say, “I can lick you, Wooden-shoes.” and the big blonde flyer wouldn’t deny it. He would snap his fingers under Eddie Bald’s nose and say, “You're a coward, Baldy; come outside and I'll proveit.” But the F"p“ed to suffer confinement until you urnish $10 cash bail money.

The Olympic Club Team, Which Holds the Coast Championshlip. The following letter from an enthusias- tic supporter and admirer of the National game speaks for itself: Sporting Editor Call; As your paper is recog- nized as the leading sporting journal of the Pacific Coast by all classes of sportsmen, I take this opportunity to give your many readers of baseball an idea of what the Olympic Club has accomplished through its enthusiastic superin- tendent, W. J. Kennedy, in the way of elevat- ing & game which should be as dear'to the hearts of all true sport-loving Americans as is cricket to Englishmen the world over. The Olvmpic baseball team during the season of 1895 establishea for itself a record of undis- puted supremacy in_the circles of amateur aseball on the Pacific Coast. In a year when the National game was somewhat on the wane in_this commurity, in arranging and plaving throughout a series of ten months an almost continuous series of games, noted for their closeness of contest, it kept alive a latent in- terest in the National sport and paved the way for a renewal of the game in the near future.

The long-expected face-cleaning of the earth has arrived and according to latest rivers which contained only a few feet of water a8 week ago, are now running bank full. The heavy downpour of the last few days will vastly improve the sport of angling for steelheads in the tidewaters of streams within easy reach of the city. At the present writing angling for steel- heads is out of question, as the color of the water in the creeks resembles Fes soup. Doubtless the conditions favorable to ang- ling will not be such as to guarantee suc- cess to anglers until a week or so after the cessation of the present storm. As an evidence that the striped bass are fast becoming very numerous and that in a few years hence the lovers of angling will enjoy the sport of catchine them with rod and Yine in the tidewaters of coast streams, last Thursday Alfred Todhunter of Redwood City, while fishing for steel- heads in the 8an Gregorio Lagoon, hooked and landed eleven bass that averaged from two pounds to five pounds in weight.

But Shafer could al- cham to fr; 10! o was decisive. Cabanne and Titus knew if they didn’t mind him they would lose their jobs. Shafer says Ziegler is a world-beater, and is delighted to think he will get him on his team. Wells, he says. is a fast rider, but too good-natured. He will leta man cut him off or elbow him in a race, and never murmur. They don’t dare to do that to “Bob’’ Terrill, though, for there would be trouble. Hamilton 15 a good man to follow a pacing machine or in a road race, but doesn't show up so well on the track. Shafer thinks Tom Eck a clever trainer and manager, and says he is aclean sportsman and not the fa some woula His management of Johnson bas been square throughout. Because he has made nim a champion, and they have made barrels of money to- | zether, jealousy has caused some to say Eck was crooked. Shafer denies this from only wants to see fair racing, and would not permit a man of his to ride unfairly or foulanother rider. Neither Eck nor Shafer ever protested a man or a race in all the years they have followed the sport. If ways control him, and a word from him | He says himself he | | ment it played during the year, the Olympic | nine began its successful season’ by'defeating | the nine of the University of California in that | month. During the early spring Berkeley was on two different occasions again met and defeated, and the scalps of the strong nine of Stanford, the intercollegiate winners, were also gathered In by the atbletic elub bows in two well-played games. Weldon, who did the twirling for the | team, was efficientlv supported by the nine. | At thin time Sents Clara College was beaten on its own grounds in thirteen innings of skillful play and excitement. Woodland slso fell a viciim, and in two contests with Vallejo, played in that city, the club continued as un- | ‘\ team was beaten in a close game, score 4 to 3. | The success of the team was due to the exist- | ence of those qualities that will make any | team & winner, namely good feeling and a spirit to never say die until the last man is out. The only feared rivals to the title of coast amateur champions during the year was the stroug local aggregation under ths manage- ment of J. Ullman, known as the Pacifics. It | is safe to state that no more exciting or closely contested series of games ever took place in the State or on the coast between amateur teams. The opening game was played at Cen- tral Park and ended in a vic'ory for the Olym- | | pics after twelve innings of hard play. Game | quickly followed game until each team had | sccured three victories, and the question of | supremacy was & disputed issue. The rubber defeated champions. Before an all-professional | bass took the spoon in dashing style and Mr. Todhunter says that they made a very game fight. As an edible nsh they are highly prized by epicures. THE CALL for some years past has been advocating the introduction of the German brown trout on this coast, but the State Fish Commissioners were unable to pro- cure the eggs of this game and beautiful trout from the United Slates Fish Com- missioners at Washington, although fre- quently promised a supply. Mr. Emeric was determined, however, to have ‘“‘the red spotted beauties” that are so highly prized by the anglers and epicures of the old countries swimming side by side with the uative rainbow in the rivers of this coast, and with that object in view he was re- lentless in his requests for brown trout eggs. “Tt is with pleasure that Tie CALL isin a position to say that 125000 eggs are en route from the Caledonia hatchery of New York State, and it is _hoped that they will arrive in good condition. The consign- ment of eggs will be taken in charge by the superintendent of the Sisson hatch- ery. he fry will be liberated when old enough to paddle their own canoe in the | and other mountain streams, where they | headguarters of the Truckee, American | of dry weather followed the first storm of | the season, resulting in a rapid fall of the | river. tion, were compelled to seek the ceepest | pools, where many of them were killed by spear, net and dynamite. A report of the slaughter was made at the oftice of the | commission and deputies were dispatched to Cloverdale, near which place the cap- ture of some men who were seining the advices from the country the streams and | pools resulted. Commissioner Babcock stated that the residents of Cloverdale, Healdsburg and other towns within close proximity of the river are strongly opposed to the killing of steelheads bv means of seine and dyna- mite, and will aid the Commissioners in causing the arrest of all persons who make | it a practice of taking fish by these means. The San Francisco Rod and Gun Club i will hold 1ts next banquet and election of officers on Tuesday evening at the sport: man's headquarters, 16 Market street. Members appointed to provide game and | fish for the occasion will leave to-day for | the happy hunting and fishing grounds of the interior. Sketches of the directors of the club from photographs appear in this department. While makine arrests of illegal fisher- | men at Black Wolf, Wis., on December 30, Deputy Game Warden Bonnell was set upon by nine fishermen and a fierc: fight took place. Mr. Bonnell had two of the | fishermen under arrest and was in the act | of taking several set lines and gill nets | from the ice when several fishermen gave | him orders to return the nets to their com- | panions. This he refused to do, and a fight | ensued. During the melee Mr. Bonnell was struck over Lis back with a shovel. Warrants for the arrest of the fishermen | have been issued. 2SR L DUCK AND QUAIL. The President of the Sportsmen’s Protective Association on Game Preserves. Local sportsmen have about concluded that the end of the duck-shooting season will arrive with the departure of the present storm. True, there are five weeks more of au open season, but it will be the sportsmen of Southern California who will enjoy the sport of the remaining days. The thousands of wild ducks which lined the east shores of the bay for many weeks have taken their departure for the south, and local duck-hunters must de- pend upon pet luck from now until Febru- ary 15 when the open season will expire. | The canvasback, bluebill and spoonbill | will not venture far inland. and as there | are thousands of the former kind in the | bay, good sport will attend any sportsman who locates himself at certain points near the bay over which the birds pass in their | flight to and from their favorite feeding grounds. Richardson’s Bay, north of Sausalito, is a good locality for a morning and evening shoot, and especially is this a fact at this time of the year. One of the best points near the bay where hunters have scored large bags of ‘“cans’’ is Hunters Point. On Thursday evening two young men who reside in South San Francisco bagged nineteen canvasback and eleven spoonbills in one hour’s shooting there, darkness Eu!tinz a stop to the spori. Point Isa- elle on the east shore of the bay is also a William J. Ahern, Gun President of the | Sportsman’s Protective Association, G WALKER their men could not win, they said noth- in%, but tried again. he San Jose Road Club will hold a smoker for its members this evening. The Bay City Wheelmen will hold aeuchre party to-night, to be followed by a social entertainment and refreshments. At their euchre parties the club always servesa light egegnog, and as Secretary Howard has been intrusted with the brewing of it, an honor highly prizad and allowed to a man only once, a jolly time is assured all who attend. Mr. Howard is a new member, and this will be his first offense. Monday night the Olympic Club Wheel- men will atterd in a body the entertain- ment given by the Olympic Club, and afterward will repair to a near-by restau- rant, where the newly elected ~officers, whose names were given in THE CALL on Wednesday, wi'l be banqueted. There is some prospect of an indoor. cycle racing tournament. The projector at first intended to give a six days’ women’s race and then six days of ama- teur racing, but has about concluded the former venture would not be supported. If a good eight-lap track can be put in the Pavilion and some of the class B racing teams secured to come here, such a_meet would probably pay well. Ziegler, Wells, Coulter, Terrill, Kiser, Hamilton and other Eastern riders are now on the coast. Cooper will be here soon and Bald is also expected. If the management is good the meet would be a great thing for the sport and the local club men, and I hope it will receive sufficient encouragement for those reasons to put it through. The Imperial Cycling Club will hold an- other of 1ts delightful parties Friday even- ing, January 31. The last one was one of the best ever given by a local wheeling club, and the coming event will be an im- provement upon it. ~The Imperial Club is thriving. Speaking of this club reminds me: I met one of the members last Satur- day night on Van Nessavenue and stopped for a few moments’' chat. He had his wheel with him, and I remarked: ‘Where's your bell?” He replied tbat he season at Springfield, Mass., in September, | when, in the professional races, Sanger beat them all by several yards, and showed such magnificent condition that it was freely expressed that no man in the world, Zimmerman, Bald, Johnson or any of them, could have touched him that day. |1t was Shafer's skillful trainiog, and had forgotten it but guessed he didn’t need one as he was only going a few blocks. After we separated he hadn't gone half a block before a policeman arrested him for violating the ordinance, and he had to tei- ephone to his friends for bail money. The moral is, don’t fail to carry a bell on your wheel, and ring it st crossipgs, or else be JOHN SAMME GEO. AITCHELL, 01 T0*RAAUNSDORF: DIRECTORS OF THE SAN FRANCISCO ROD AND GUN CLUB. was played at Central Park late in the summer months, and the Olympic nine won the game and with it fhe amateur championship of the coast for 1895. ~Since then the team has won e number of easy contests and clearly established the fact that it stands in & class by itself in amateur circles. Several other games were played, all result- ing in victory for the wearers of the winged Among the defeated teams were the Petalumas, the C. H. Hall's and the Admirals. A short series of three games was also played in Santa Cruz, the Olvmpics capturing the nec- essary majority. The trips to the city by the sea were replete with interesting incidents, and the time is eagerly looked forward to by the boys when they may again enjoy the hos- pitality of the Santa Cruzans. In the entire scason twenty-el were played and the number of d ht games Eoats were but few. " Not a single series was lost, and the title of coast champions fits easily on the shoulders of the Olympie boys. Those who composed the winning nine and who brouzhl honor_to themselves and victory to the club were: Manager, W. J. Kennedy; pitcher, John Cooney; catcher, Charles 0'Kane: rst Dbase, Harry Walton; second base, Reed Beckett; shortstop, Frank Monahan: ' third base, Honry Krug; left field, William Gimmell; center ficld and’ captain, John F. Sheeha will be afforded protection from a horde of local anglers who basket all kinds and sizes of trout when on summer outings. The rainbow trout bas proven itself king of the fresh-water streams of this coast, but he will have an opponent in the brown trout that will dispute every inch of territory. Doubtless many battles. royal will result when ‘“‘the brown’’ will invade the waters from which the “rainbow’’ has driven the Eastern and_cutthroat trout. The rainbow may possibly spring the Monroe doctrine. Deputy Fish Commissioner Babcock states that auring a recent visit to Clover- dale and that vicinity he learned from the residents that the run of steelheads in the Russian River during the time of the freshet, which occurred in November, was something wonderful. The Commission- ers bad put a stop to net-fishing near the mouth of the river and when the bar, which had been blocked by sand for several weeks, was broken by the freshet the steelheads lost no time in making good headway to the spawning beds. It will be remembered that a long spell good site for an evening’s ;shoot. TItisex- tremely doubtful if any respectable bags of game will be made to-day or to-morrow on the marshes that margin the bay. s Some person, who has written under the name of Anderson to THE CALL, wishes to know if the game warden of this county is still living, and if dead, when he departed | this life?” Canany one answer this query ? Some of theinsignificant sporting papers that are advocating the introduction of an | English system of game preserves on_this coast, may take a lesson from the follow- ing ‘‘grand” report of game slaughter as ublished in_the Andover Advertiser of ampshire, Eng., under date of Decem- ber 13. Here it is: Some remarkable shooting took place on the Highclere estate of the Earl of Carnarvon on Friday afternoon, notwithstanding the ex- tremely wet weather. The party included Lord Carnarvon, Earl de Grev, Prince Victor | Dhuleep Singh, Prince Frederick Dhuleep Singh, Lord Ashburton, and one other—six guns in all. They shot near the lake and killed no less than 1300 pheasants in three- quarters of an hour. On two previous days the same party, shooting over Lord Carnar- von's preserves, killed some 6000 head of game. This is supposed to be game protection.
