THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, AUGUST 22, 1896 13 the camp and was shot at by Haight, who admits that despite his Rocky Moun- tain training he overshot the deer twice. A great deal of merriment was afforded the ladies by Bacon, who had never slept out of aoors in his life, and exhibited great alarm at the proximity of a bat or bug. One night Haight shot at a tame cat, thinking it to be a skunk, and at the re- pors Bacon kicked a hole in the canvas tent. On learning what had happened, it may be stated on the authority of Haight, the reaction on Bacon’s nervous system was s0 great that he nearly fainted. Later on he emphatically insisted that before any more nocturnal shooting was done lie be awakened. During the trip many wild pigeons and several grouse were bagged. A shoot at live birds and bluerocks is to be held at Shelton’s Grove, near Marys- ville, Sunday, August 23, under the aus- pices of the Yuba and Sutter Gun Club for the Appeal Giamond medal. edal is now beld by Ned Fay of the d Hotel, he having won it for the t time under the terms in May, 1895, _ A few days ago Fay was formally noti- fied of the shooting contest and invited to be present, with the instruction to express the medal to E. B. Hornung, chairman of the committee. George Crocker and a number of com- panions departed for Boca Thursday even- ing to despoil the Truckee of its sala- manders. Their reputation as sportsmen ures a good yarn, at least. 23 B RIFLE AND RANGE. San Jose Turners Will Open Six New Targets. The third annual prize shooting festival of the San Jose Turn Verein Shooting Sec- tion will be held on the 30th and 31st inst. This marks an important event in the istory of the Verein, the opening of its ew park near the Garden City. The new ark is one of the fiest on the coast, ana e shooting-range has been fitted with all the modern appliances. Tnere are six targets in all. The rules governing the opening event re, that all shooting shall be off-hand at 200 yards, and all rifles shall be allowed, excepting those using the steel-covered bullets. On the first day the shooting will begin at 10:30 A. ». and close at 6 p. M., with an intermission at noon for lunch. On the second day the shooting will begmn at 9 A. M. and close at 5 P. M. On the point targets the black will be divided into three points—tickets eight shots for §1. The best centers will be measured after the shoot. There will be_fifteen prizes for the best nters, consisting of three cash prizes to amount of $50 and twelve elegant . Kor the most points there will be fifteen prizes—three of cash to the amount of $50 and twelyve merchan- dise trophies worth $200. eled medal will be given to all marksmen shooting over 50 points, $2 50 for 100 points, $2 50 for 200 points and $5 for 250 points.

Monday night the Turners r guests will hold a grand ball and ibution of prizes. he officers and directors of the Turners Captain, Fred Schumacher; first L. Henning; second lieuten- . Ziegeler; treasurer, F. Posky. K Klein and George Keffel have both served as captains. The second day’s shoot of the Califo nia Schuetzen Club’s annual festival wi be held to-morrow at Schuetzen Park, near San Rafael. All twenty targets will be 1n use during the entire day, and it is believed that there will be many good rec- s made. The shooting will be on the ana German 25-ring targets. events will be shooting for the honors of oting king, for the highest honors, and pecial cash prizes, ranging from $8 to $1. The highest score on the king target will entitle the marksman to the king’s crown and a diamond medal. The shooting on the honorary and man targets will also be resumed. ~Forty casn prizes are offered for the best scores on the man target. These range from $30 to §1. Several very good tickets were shot at the honorary target last Sunday, but bet- ter scores will be made at to-morrow’s shoot. On this event seventy-five mer- se prizes will be given away. A er goblet will be presented 1 m champion s by A. L. Ott to the marksman making the best average on all thetargets. In addi- tion to the foregoing, the members of the club will shoot for prizes. The prizes will be distribnted on Thurs- day evening, August 27, at Eintrachs Hall, Twelfth and Folsom streets, and the dis- tribution will be followed by a social. The attendance at the Shell Mound range to-morrow will be large, as there are several clubs and a number of military companies there holding their monthly medal contests. Among them will be the Columbia Pistol and Rifle Club, the Nora- deutschers and the San Francisco Schuet- zen Club. The Columbia Club has decided move from the east end of the shooting- shed to the extreme west end, and Captain Siebe wiil put in the marking-wheels at once. The reasox for this is that the pis- tol and rifle ranges may be together. A door will be cut through the wall so as to connect the two shooting stands. A little later a partition will be run through the biz room so as to shutoff ibe draught. Wardrobes, closetsand rifle racks will also | be constructed. It was feared for a time that the two west targets, A and B, would be too badly exposed tothe wind for fine shooting, but the members decided to change and make more use of their wind-gauges. A ladies’ auxiliary to the Columbia Pistol and Riflle Club is about to be formed. The wives and daughters of a number of the members are already very expert in handling the 22-caliber rifle and pistol. A number nave entered the lists for prizes and have proved themselves to be fairly accurate shots. From all' ac- counts the lagies will form a club the early part of next mouthfi?nd mn&(e use of the i t on the fifty-yard range. hird targel y = S T G e FOOTBALL. Preparations for the New Season in Active Progress. After the big Thanksgiving game it is very probable that the Olympic football team will have 8 game with the Mult- nomahs of Portland and the Butte, Mont., team. > As there wiil probably bavno_Behnnce eleven this year the Olympics intend to get in the best possible form to meet these U“?E:'chanceg are that the Peeriess Foot- ball Club of the Mission will make an active display this year. They have an athletic club of their own and the players are working hard to bring themselves into proper form to take their place near the head for the season. 5 Several of the Sfaniord graduates in and about the City W o interested in foot- ball are expected to play with the Olympics this year. The Olympic Club football men have elected as captain of this season’s team Pete Smith, the big guard who captained the eleven last year. Smith is nearl feet 2 jnches in height nx_ld ‘weighs in his This | A silver enam- | The | football clothes over 200 pounds. He has played with the Olympics for the last three seasons, first as center and then as guard. During the season of ’93, while a freshman at the University of California, he played guard on the Varsity, but in the Thanksgiving game of that year he filled left tackle’s position, relieving Loren Hunt, who was early retired from the field because of an additional injury to a lame leg. Before that one year at Berkeley Smith had‘pla}'ed football for some time at Cogswell College, in this City. Trained in '93 by the giant Heffelfinger | of Yolo, said to be the greatest guard that ever lived, Smith has since developed bis ay along the lines suggested by his roportions he gnu any other teacher, whose physical approaches more nearly t. | football-player in Calhifornia. With respect to veteran players from which to reconstrucs an eleven, toe Olym- pics are better off than either of the uni- versities. Stanford has lost six of her old team by graduation and Berkeley has loat one by graduation and five through other causes. The Olympics have Kingdon, 192 | pounds, center; Middlemas, 178 pounds, | guard; Smith, 195 pounds, guard; Sexton, | 176 pounds, tackle; Porter, 192 pounds, | tackle; Nahl, 140 pounds, quarter, and | Percy Morse, 160 pounds, halfback. They bave lost both ends, a halfback and a fullback. But for new men they practizally have Weldon, sub-fullback for Stanford last year and a. player of four or | five years’ experience at Belmont School | and at Stanford University, and Tommy | Code, quarterback of the Stanford Varsity for four seasons. Both men have been members of the Olympic Club for several years, Code having at one time been a well-known lightweight wrestler. In ad- dition to these men, Captain Smith has his eye on Harrelson, Stanford’s star quarterback; Lewis, formerly an end rush on the Stanford Varsity; Downing, cap- tain of the Stanford Varsity in 1894; Frankenheimer, Stanford’s veteran ena rush and halfback, and Wilson, for sev- eral years end rush of the Berkeley Var- sity.” These men have been graduates from college, and are now in business in or near this City. Of the veteran Olymyic players, Sexton first played with the Olympics in 1892 and then in 1893. Kingdon, known as a | promising young wrestler in his ciab, | made his initial appearance on the grid- iron field last season. And here it may be | appropriate to say that Captain Smith | laughs at the suggestion that Kingdon | may, as a student in the college of phar- | uacy, play with Berkeley this year. He | declares that Kingdon will stay with the | Olympics exclusively, as he did last year. { Middlemas has played but one season, though he had experience previous to last | year while a student in Anderson’s acad- | emy, Alameda. Percy Morse is a veteran football-plaver in the broadest sense of the term. He has played both the asso- ciation and the intercollegiate game off and on for the last five years. ‘‘Porter,’” as they say at the Olympic Club, “has been playing football since the year 1.” He played at Ambherst College years ago; then, in 1892, helped coach Stanford while he was a teacher and a coach at a San | Mateo preparatory school, where he played | the game for several years. |~ Then he played with the Olympies, and in '94 played on the Berkeley Varsity, | having qualified for the team by entering | the medical college of this City. Last year he returned to the Olympics. The Olympics will not begin training betore the middle of September, a time when the two universities will also set the ball rolling. The individual players and the club have enough suits to fit out a team at very small expense. Pringle, last year's manager of the | Reliance Club eleven, has not been re- | elected to that vposition, which is still | vacant. Fred Frick, captain of the team | last year, is now deep in Oakland politics. | The club itself is making no active | preparations for a team this season, though | one may yet be crgauized, much of the | | old material being available. | It is said that big Bert Oliver, guard and | tackle on the Reliance eleven for the last | two seasons, will enter Stanford this yea: | He has been_a college possibility for sev- eral years. Now it seems he has decided to go at the request of Manager Brown of | the Palo Alto team, who is also an Oak- | land boy and an old schoolmate of Oliver. | Brown soon after his election to the man- agership, set about with Captan Fickert | of the Stanford team to engage a coach for this season. Walter Camp could not | return, but he had done everything pos- | sible while' he was out here to lay the foundation for a good team this fall. One | of Manager Brown’s first thoughts was to | engage Butterworth, thereby not only de- priving Berkeley of his services but secur- ing for the Stanford players the advantage | of his intimate knowledge of the Berkeley | men he had trained last seasou. But the idea was soon abandoned as savoring of a tricky advantage. After | considerable correspondence Cross, Yale's | center of last season, was engaged to come to Palo Alto on October 1 and coach | Camp’s old pupils for two months. Cross is not a star glsy-r. neither is Captain Fickert of the Stanford team. But both are big, determined, conscientious men, | who give backbone to ateam by adding | strength and firmness to the line. Cross played on the Varsity only in his senior vear at Yale. Previous to that he had | been on the second eleven—a most excel- lent place to observeand learn the whole game. The one place for which he was peculiarly fitted bappened to be filled by the great Stillman,’a phenomenal center, who as such was a little better man for the place than Cross. But Palo Alto’s new, coazch is fresh from the gridiron field; he has Camp’s trained men to work with, and he will himself be thoroughly in touch with the Stanford captain in mak- ing the line, already composed of veterans, a stone wall for Berkeley to oppose with practically new men. SLmTE g THE OARSMEN. How the Rowers Train for the Big Regatta. Interest in the great Stockton regatta on Admission day is rapidly increasing, and each evening the wharves in the vicinity of Long Bridge, the present training quar- ters of all the local clubs, are crowded with enthusiastic admirers of the speedy oarsmen, criticizing their work during their practice spins. The scene along the old bridge during ! the training hours of the respective clubs, which are from 6 to 8 . M., is an animated one, and one can feast his optic organs on some remarkably fine rowing. The course at these hours is always rerowded with all manner and description | of racing craft, and some wily single sculler with an ambition to be a future Peterson can he seen trying the mettle of some crack skiff rower, or else trying con- clusions with some crack four-oared crew as they go skimming down the course, each man rowing with a clocklike move- ment, and the little cockswain ever and anon bobbing up and down in the stern of the boat like a veritable automaton. Very often some exciting racing is in- | dulged in, much to the amusement of the | spectators, and, all in all, a trip down to | Long Bridge in the evening while the oars- men are 1n training for the eventful day of September 9 would prove interesting to any one interested in the sport of rowing. The methods of training now in vogue | by the different clubs are almost identical. | They consist of a three-mile spin each evening from the foot of Third street, along Long Bridge, past the Union Works, around the sugar-house buoy and return, when a refreshing dip in the brive is taken as the conclusion of the night’s work. The prettiest race of the Stockton re- gatta will be the senior four-oared barge event, in which will be entered the Pi- oneers, the South Ends, Stockton Athletic Association, and, possibly, the Ariel Club. The latter club is trying hard to organize a crew, and has got together three good men—Henry Krank. a crack athlete of the Acme Club of Oakland; George Phelan, the coming champion skiff-rower, and Frank Wilson, a comparatively new man at the oars, but the makings of a great oarsman. A fourth man is anxious- ly: being sought for, and when he is found tl;e crew will go into training im- mediately. The Piznur and South End crews, who are the best of friendy, both in a race and out of it, are working tooth and nail to get in the pest possible condition, and as this will be each crew’s last race the bitter antagonism that is extant among them as to which is the better crew wilk wiped out in a royal battle of the oars for blood. The Stocktonian crew are smashin away at the oars night and morning, an as they are more than anxious to have a crack at the local crew the most exhilar- ating four-oared race ever rowed will bea feature of the day’s sport. Jim Foley, the entry in the junior shell from the South End Club, is fast reducing his avoirdupois, and looks to have a good chance to win. He will have a strong backing from his club members, and his masgnificent stroke and gorgeous rostume never fail to catch the ladies’ eyes, as he plies his frail craft along the bridge, with his Amazonian chest protruded and head high in the air. The ladies are often heard to remark as he passes by, ‘‘Is that Peterson ?”’ Knowing ones who have seen the South End junior crew perform claim that their chances of aefeating the Stocktonian crew are not of the brigntest. The boys are good rowers, but their in- experience in. rowing a barge against such a crack crew as the Stocktonian one will prove disastrous to them, thereby lessen- ing the South Ends’ chances of winning every event on the programme, which they are out to do. The club is getting rather anxious over the completion of their skiffs in time for the races. Certain material to be used in their construction had to be ordered from the East, but as yet has not arrived and when it does the boat-builder will put on an extra force to have them completed by September 9. t is being rumored about that the Ala- meda junior crew is going to disband. There seems to be some dissension among its members. This crew and the Stock- tonian crew were looked upon as the win- ners of the junior four-oared race atthe Stockton regatta. McCausland, the Ariel entry in the senior single-scull event of the regatta, is now rowing in great form. His now shell is conceded to be much faster than hisold one, and with it he intends to give Du- plissea the race of his life. It has been agreed upon by the mem- bers of the Ariel Club that Jim Wilson and George Phelan shall both represent the club in the senior outrigger event, and that Frank Wilson .and J.” R. Bockman shall row in the junior event. They also have intentions of entering a junior crew in the coming regatta. —_——— CRICKET CHIRPS. The Cricket Movement In France. Grace’s Monster Score. The Frenchman will never make a | cricketer. Strenuous efforts were recently [ made 1n the game’s behalf at a college sit- | uated just outside Paris. The movement | was, in a measure successful, and a month ago “une grand match” was announced with a flourish of trumpets. It is mel- ancholy to have to state that the issue of the movement was tragical. A fiercely delivered, full pitched ball struck an en- thusiastic batsman between the eyes. The victim felt that not his head alone, but his honor, had suffered. He demanded salis- faction of the erratic bowler, and a fear- ful, though bloodless duel ensued. While the combatants are satisfied, the game has | been generally denounced by the nation as barbarous. As the English season nears its close the inter-county matches attract more and more interest. An important bearing | on the championship took place at Ken- | nington Oval two weeks ago. It was the Surry and Yorkshire match, and resulted | in a victory for the former team by an in- nings and 61 runs. The fixture was made for Lohmann’s benefit, and there accrued to that popular player the admission fees of 52,000 spectators—a record beater in the | way of benefits. The Australians beat Warwickshire by an innings and 60 runs, and were defeated by Earl de La Ware’s eleven at Bexhill- on-Sea by 4 wickets. | Lancashire beat Gloucestershire by 4 wickets. Notts and Sussex had a draw. The following team will represent Eng- | land in their third contest with Australia, to be played at the Oval G. Grace, A. E. Stoadart, K. 8. Ranj ji, F. 8. Jack- son, Richardson, Gunn, Hayward, Abel ana Lilley. The last two man, Peel, J. ‘Wynward. Surrey defeated Notts by 424 to 240, the victor’s score including five innings over 0. );laces rest between Loh- . Hearne and Captain z i’laying for Somerset against Middlesex in a drawn match W. N. Roe, ex-greatest scorer of the world, made 106 without giving a chance. In the Gloucestershire-SBussex match | Champion W. G. Grace made 301 of the 1 551, which gave the decision to Gloucester- | shire. | The Canterbury week opened with a | match between Kent and Lancashire, | which resulted in a draw. Maclaren’s | 226 not out for Lancashire was the feature of the event. The scheduled cup match for to-morrow is between the Alameda and Bohemian Clubs at Golden Gate. o UnPIRE. o A KENNEL.

The expected cruise up the Sacramento River, mentionea last wegk, materialized and, accordingly, there is little excitement in the yachting world. Most of those who take an active inter- est in sailing over the briny deep in their swift little vessels have left their aesks and account-books behind for the exhil- arating sport of visiting the varioustowns and cities on the line of the cruise and taking life easy in hammocks the rest of the time. As soon as the yachts return with the sun-tanned pleasure-seekers news of in- terest in yachting may be expected. A watermelon cruise Wwill be taken to Goat Island to-day by the Oakland Navy. The fleet will depart from Sessions Basin, on the estuary, at 4 ». M. The following yachts will spread their sails for the cruise: The shipjack Surprise, Captain Hinckley; sloop Mascotte, Captain Juies Hartman; sloop Mirth, Dr. Mervey: sloop Flash, Captain Chapman; sloop Annie, Captain WP liam Banks; sloop Ralph B, Captain Peter Brock, and the canoe Eolus, Captain Claus Isakse: SWIMMING.

' TRIED TO ESCAPE. A Burglar Jumps Into the Bay, but Three Shots Fired at Him Makes Him Return. George Hansen, an ex-convict, has been wanted by the police for the past two weeks on the charge of burglary. He is accused of breaking into the house of Albert Beck, 816 lowa street, on the night of August 4, and stealing a lot of silverware. Detectives Bee and Harper were detailed on the case, and two days later they Te- covered the stolen property in a pawnshop, and from the description of the man who pawned it they came to the conclusion he was Hansen. | A description of Hansen was sent to_the different police stations, and Friday night Lieutenant Bennett of the Potrero met him on one of the wharves there. He placed him under arrest, but ne broke away and jumped into thebay. Hestarted to swim away, and Bennett whipped out his revolver and fired three shots at him. The third shot scared him, and he swam back. The lieutenant hauled him sut of the water and sent him to the City Prison, where he was locked up in the tanks. Yesterday afternoon the pawnbrokeriden- tified him. Hansen is a well-known petty thief, and in August, 1893, he was sentenced to two years in San Quentin for burglary. e .. Ashworth Will Not Run.

Sax FRANCISCO, June 7, 1896. To Whom It May Concern: In June, 1832, I be- came afflicted with kidney and other troubles, which seemed to affect the nerve centers of my spine, which became o paralyzed that there was no feeling there. I was confined to my bed most of the time for sixteen months, and was trested by three eminent physicians without success, and after a consuitation they informed me that my case was incurable: but, as I was in no hurry about dying, I concluaed to try Dr. Sanden’s Electric Belt, so I purchased one and began using it In two months I was able to work and was | soon entirely well and happy and gained fifteen pounds. My heaith has since that time been good. 1 am in no way interesfed in the sale of Dr. Sanden’s Electric - Belts. but I do cheerfully recommend them to the afilicted. I would further add_that I have had this Belt since November, 1893, and it still gives a good current. Y. R. PARKS, 209 Fourth sreet, San Fraucisco. Many Like It.
