Grouse and Mountain Quail Shoot- ing—Inanimate Targets. bhe Pacific Tournament Association will meet to-morrow at -the shooting- | grounds, Alameda Junction, where inani- | mate targets will be used. | On September 6 the California Wing | Club will shoot at San Bruno; September 9 the Fresno Gun Club will held a tourna- ment at Fresno, and on the same day the | Reliance Gun Ciub of Oakland will have a free-for-all shoot at its grounds in Ala- | meda. September 13 the Olympic Gun | ’lub will meet at Alameda Pointand on | the 19th the Alameda;County Sportsmen’s | Club will hold a shoot at Alameda Junc- | tion. On the 20th the Golden State Gun Club will smash clays at Alameda Point, | while the Reliance Gun Club will kold rth at the Webster-street grounds. | Sportsmen will be pleased to learn that | occasionally a Deputy Fish Commissioner | pays some attenaicn to the game inter- | ts. Recently John H. Sammi, a popular | ortsman, received at his place of busi on Sacramento sireet a bunch of use from a friend who is enjoying a va- As 2 messenger- was on his way to Mr. Sammi’s resi- ience with the game in question a Deputy | Fish Commissioner intercepted him on Davis street and inquired of the boy where he was going with the “quaiL” The lad at first refused to be mnterviewed but when the deputy displayed his badge an answer ‘quickly foillowed which was not satisfactory to the game warden, who marched the boy to the headquarters of tne Fish Commission, which is _in the Flood building. Chief Deputy Baocock explained to his assistant that the birds which the messenger-boy had in his pos- ession were grouse, and that the season those birds can be lawfully killed he had an eye out for business, and in case the nger-boy had been engaged by a c n-house to deliver the birds to a p haser the evidence of conviction would be sufhcient—that is according to an act relating to the sale of grouse, which reads |, Testaurant or ea house, tman or other person who sball buy , expose or offer for sale, quail, bob-white, partridge, grou: wild duck, whether taken or killed in the nia, or shipped into the State any other State, Territory or foreign country, ept between the fifteenth day of November | nd the fifteenth day of January of the follow- | ing year, shail be guilty of a misdemeanor. But there is another section of the game law that refers specially to cold-storage | hotel-keepers and marketmen which some- | what tangles up the meaning of thelaw, that is, so far as the season for the sale of use is concerned, and it is as follows: | Every cold-storage company, person keep- ing ajcold-storage warehouse, tavern or hotel- | per, restaurant or eating-house keeper, merketman or other person, who shail buy, sell, expose or offer for sale, or give away, of | have in his possession in this State, any quail, | bob-white, partridge, pheasant, grouse, dove | or wild duck, during the time it shall be un- | lawful to kill such birds, whether taken or lled in the Btate of Californis, or shipped | the State from any other State, Territory | or foreign country, shall be guilty of & misde- | meanor. ‘ It will be moticed that in this section the words, ‘“‘during the time it shall be‘ unlawfui to kill such birds”, wouid infer | that grouse can be sold now, as the grouse | season opened on the 15th inst. Evidently | the game law is in a very tangled cp state | and it is no wonder that Judges and jurors | are puzzled when they are called upon to decide questions which the framers of the law are themselves unable to answer. | Mr. Sammi got the birds all right, but | he had to pay the messenger 70 cents over- | time, a bill for which he proposes forward- ing to the honorable Board of Fish Com- missioners—Messrs. Emeric, Murdoch, Morrison and Babcock. Billy Mardock of the Linzoln Gan Club has built a very comfortable hunting ark, which will be anchored in Midshipmans slough, Sonoma marshes, during the duck- | shooting season. Murdock wiil have as | his shooting companions two members of the Lincoln Gun Club. | Donald McRae is making very extensive preparations for the duck-shooting season in the Suisun marshes. He has engaged one of the most commodious and comforta- ble arks on the bay ior the season and will be glad to have many visits from his friends and sportsmen when the season opens. There are sleeping compartments in the ark for ten persons and it goes with- out saying that every ‘‘bunk” will havea | hunter on the opening day of the season. ; McRae is thoroughly conversant with the | best shooting pondsof the Suisun marshes. Cliff Wiegel, who returned recently from the McCloud River says that trout fishing is good and that during his outing in the | mountains with Sam Estman eleven deer | were killed and one large brown bear. | ATt THE OARSMEN. Clubmen Are In Readiness for the Great Stockton Regatta. The past week has been an excepfiona'fly busy one in local boating circles arranging for the great rowing regatta to be held at Stockton on Admission day. The oarsmen, who have been faithfully training for the affair for two months, are now in the pink of condition. The training next week will consist of try-out races each evening. The races on the 9th should not be of the funeral procession order, as the time of nearly every single-sculler, outrigger skiff oarsman and barge crew now in training has been csught during practice spins over the course, and in each in- stance the time takes owed that all the local oarsmen are very evenly matched. At Stockton the oarsmen are tninm‘l former player being also promineat in | Rioraan, coast | Arthur, forwarawaist end captai | Fred Ayers, A, Webb, Victor Hadcock | gatta and Edward P.

Magee be faithfully, and according to Gus Granat, | the genial secretary of the Stockton Ath- letic Association,” who is in town, the Stockton people will be greatly disap- pointed if they fail to win both the junior | and senior barge races. | The entries in the erent races will be as follows: Pioneer Club, senior erew—Frea Orr, bow and captain; Coney Ochs, forwardwaist; | George Collopy, afterwaist; John Clifford, stroke, and George Fitzsimmons, coxswain. Junior Crew—Dick Collopy, bow and eap- tain; Thomas Faulkner, forwardwaist: Phil Tuiths, afterwaist; William St. John, stroke, and George Fitzsimmons, coxswain. The Pioneers will make no_entries in the shell races or outriggzer skiff events, owing to the lack of suitable boats. Entries from the Ariel Rowing Club will be as follows: William McCausland, the junior champion single sculler, in the senior single-scull event; Frank Wil- son in the junior outrigger skiff race, and Jim Wilson and George Phelan wili row | under the club’s colorsin the senior ont- rigger skiff event. Andy Carroll, who | bas so long and successiully acted as the | club’s coxswain, will row for the club in | P! the junior single-scull event. He has| bought McCausland’s old 1acing shell, and, | although he is little more than a boy, he is looked upon as the worthy opponent | of any of his competitors. The Dolphin Club will enter William | Patch in the junior outrigger skiff race, | Jack Caughlin in the senior ousrigger | event and Thomas Keenan in the junior single shell. Caughlin is in great form. From 200 pounds he has trained down to 185. He | succeeded the other evening in leading the speedy South End junior crew from the foot of Third street around the sugar- house buoy and return, a distance of three miles. | From the South End Club the following | will row at Stockton: Senior crew—Henry Bode, bo Bob Mo | Gus Car- stroke; | son, afterwaist; Frank Duplissea, George McGrill, cockswain. Junior crew—Joe Foley, bow and captain; G. Fox, forwardwaist; Hugh McIsaces, afterwaist; Tim Fitzpatrick, stroke; George McGrill, cock- | swain. | Intermediate crew—Ed Tobin, bow and cap- | tain; Matt Breen, forwardwai afterwa Ed Scully, stroke cockswain. Junior shell-Jim Foley, and probaoly Me- and Charles Cutter. In the semior ace,Frank Dnplisses, the cosst champion, | 1 row. | The South Ends would also makean | entry in the outrigger skiff events, but their boats will not be completed in time | for the regatta, owing to the late arrival | of some of the building material from the | East. The club’s junior crew, which is ‘ made up of comparatively new men, is| improving wonderfully under the tuition | of William Thomas, the coach of the club. | The entries from the Alameda Crub will be decided upon Sunday, when try-out | races will be held on the estuary, anc the winners of first and second places wiil rep- resent the club in the Stockton regatta. | Those that will row in the try-out races will be: 8. J. Pembroke, Dr. Cecil Dennis, James Pailas, George McGrill, Arthu! hell ri W and Charles Hansen. An entry will also be made from the | University Boat Ciub. William Cole will | represent them in the junior outrigger skift race of the regatta, and he isnow in regular training from the South End boat- house. Stockton wiil in all probability be rep- resented in four events as follows: Senior barge—Tom Carkeek, bow and cap- tain; Charles Spencer, forwardwaist; Denny Chapmean, afterwaist; Carl Davis, stroke, and Will Dolan, cockswain. Junior_barge—John Perrott, bow and cap- tain; F. Butler, forwardwaist; Al Brown, aft erwaist; Harry Swift, stroke, and Will Dolan, | cockswain. The intermediate crew will Ymblbly be: W. Bates, James Burns, John Silve and George Brownfield, and James Linn will row in the ju- nior single scull event. A most unfortunate accident befell young Frank Duplissea of the South Ead Club while out rowing last evening and by it he may be unable to enter the regatta. He was having a trial with Gus Carson, who was rowing a wherry, and while rac- ing down Mission Creek at a terrific pace he ran into a small skiff which suddenly darted out in front of him. The shell in which he was rowing and the one he was to use at Stockton was damaged almost beyond repair. At a meeting of the Sonth End Club held the other evening Al Fritz and John D. Mahoney were appointed to secure transportation accommodations for South End members. Jobn D. Mahoney was elected as the Soath End judge of the re- John Lenahan’s position as club delegate tothe P.

The outlook for a brilliant tournament 1s most promising, and preparations are in rapid progress.

Preparations for a Big 'Regatta and for Minor Cruises. Local yachtsmen are evincing an ani- mated interest in the interclub regatta, to be held on the bay on Admission day, and judging from the activity and enthusiasm that the amateur Jack Tars are showing over the affair it will be a great success. A regatta committee, consisting of the following, was appointed to arrange the details of the race: Charles G. Yale of the San Francisco Yacht Club, Alec Swanson of the Pacific Yacht Club, W. A. Barlage of the Corinthian Yacht Club, H. Lands- berger of the Encinal Yacht Ciub_and M. Cambel! of the California Yacht Club. It bas been decided to hold the races over the channel course. A large entry list is anticipated. and yachts are now he- ing thoroughly overhauled for the occa- sion. On Sevtember 25 the Encinal ¥acht Ciub will hold a club smoker, when the yacht Fawn, which is at present owned by a syn- dicate and which defeated the speedy Catherine for the perpetual challenge cup, will be sold at auction. The club is making extensive prepara- tions for the =ffair. An elaborate pro- gramme is being arranged for the enjoy- ment of those who attend. The members of the California Yacht Club are busy completing arrangements for their clambake, which will be given at Goat Island on September 6. The yachts of the club will crvise in squadron from the ciubhouse on Saturday night, the 5th, to Goat Island cove, where they will all anchor and ho'd social reveries aboard uniil the morrow, when the yachtsmen will proceed to dig clams and afterward di.cuss them cooked in as m{nny different styles as the chei is master of. The San Vincent, the new yacht of the Pioneer Yacnt Club, is being fitted with a suit of racing sai's, and on September 9 will try conclusions with some of the crack boats of her class. LT TR HANDBALL. Interesting Letter From Champion | Jones of Australia. John Jones, the champion of Australia, who left here several months ago for Syd- new, N. 8. W., has written an interesting letter to a friend in this City. Init he says: ‘I have got a big match on with Qughton, a Newcastle man. ie chal- lenged me in the Newcastle paper, and as soon as my backer, Mr, O’Farrell, saw ir, ne accepted it at once on the conditions mentioned by bim, the stake to be £100, A reply was promptly sent to Qughton and £10 was posted in the hands of the editor of the Referee, Sydney, the rest of the money to be put in the bands of the stake- holder the day before the match. “The conditions of the game are 51 points, to be lTlnye«l in Newcastle with the rubber ball on September 12, and 51 pomnts to be played in Sydney on Sep- tember 25 with the hard ball. Both scores will be added together, and the man that scores the most will win the match. “There is great excitement here as to who will win the matech, and several bets are being made about town. I will send on all particulars of how the maten fhlvo never seen Oughton, but I am told be is a wonder with the rubber ball, and plays very weli with tne hard ball. " “We bad an interesting game i.ere which Iknow you would have liked to see. It bad to be kept private. The contestants were two ladies. Miss Katie Cooper, one of my pupils, played another young lady, Miss Nellie Sweeney. The way they pla; surprised the few who were present. e game was the first fifteen aces, and Miss Cooper won aiter a close game by the score 15 to 10. Miss Cooper will play any lady handball player in the world, and you can put that in your paper.” A number of good games have been ar- ran; for to-morrow in the local courts. At the San Francisco court the following games will be played: J. Lawless and D. Connelly against P. Hutch- inson and P. Kelly; D. ers and P. Kyan sgainst G. McDonald and M. eil; J.Feen: and J. McEvely against R. Lenihan and ! mc:nt;uy L. Kenny and W. Jacobs, Occidental t, 'R. Murph: lldl.‘-l’. Collins; J. S champ! ) and M.J. Kilgalion against T. F. Bonnet and P. Donnelly, amateur cbampion. 8 The following games Wwill be played at the Union court: T, E. Willey and J. Burnell will play Jaj Lyons and J. Flynn; C. Carson and R. Driscoll will play M. Tierney end J. Turner; Ed Taylor and J. Norris will play J. Brady and T. Conion; Terry McManus and J. Roger will play J. O’Dannell and P. Gaughen. The event of the day wiil be between James Harlow and R. Leniban and J. J, Feeney and J. Nelson. Terry McManus of the Union court has been trying to arrange a match between McGrath ana Daly of the Eureka court, on Eighteenth street, and two players from his court, and it may come off to- morrow afternoon. McGrath and Daly claim the championship of the Mission and issued a challenge last Sunday to play any two plavers for the amateur championship of the coast. FOOTBALL. Stanford and Berkeley Prospects a Standoff—Olympic and Re- liance Promising. Football prospects with tne various clubs are beginning to assume tangible shape, and the practice season with all of them will open within the next three weeks. Stanford and the University of California, each with six vacancies to fill on the team, will start so nearly upon an equal footing that should there be mno great advantage for either in new men another Thanksgiv- ing tie may be the result. It promises now to be a contest bet ween Stanford’s powerful line and Ransome’s remarkable punting for Berkeley. Stan- ford’s plan will probably be to strengthen her heavy center and rely upon the ex- perience and force of the men in that po- sition to break down the less experienced Berkeley defense and prevent, if possible, the effectiveness of Ransome’s kicks. To this end a suggestion has been made by ex-Captain Downing of the Stanford team, who will help coach the Palo Alto men. His idea 1s to glay Cotton, who weighs over 180 pounds, at quarter, in order to fortify the center with heavy backing. This was Camp’s plan last sea- son and in 1394, when he wanted Downing bimself to train for quarter. He said it was all a mistake to suppose that quarter must be a small man; quickness was the chief requisite. With the exception of Anderson, a half- back from the QOakland High School, Berkeley has no men of known football ability in the new freshman class, but there is some likely looking heavy mate- rial that may develop into_ just such men as are most needed for the Varsity line. An upper class man from the University of Chicago, where he was a substitute, is an addition to the large list of candidates for back-of-the-line positions. Stanfordis possibly more fortunate in getting aew men. No less than eight prospective fresh- men of more or less inflated reputation are reported from different partsof the coast. The Olympics should have a team of club champions with the material in sight. Their prospects are the best in years. Nearly all of last season’s players will be in the field and in addition there are such men as Code, guarter, and Weldon, full- back, two cld Stanford players. Frank- enheimer, Stanford’'s veteran halfback, now a student in Cooper Medical College, can hardly refrain from playing football, and as the trip from here to the Reliance grounds occupies three hours it is thought that he will find the Olympic team more convenient for his favorite sport. Manager Gill has received a letter from Douglas, tackle last season for Berkeley. He wants to give up his work at Angels Camp and get employment in this City, and will if he comes here try for the Olympic team, though it already has Sex- ton and Porter for tackles. Madden, end for Olympic last season, is going to Stan- ford, and his old position is to be tried for by Sherman Stow of Santa Barbara, who was injured and hendicapped in practice for the Berkeley team last year. The Reliance Club has good material, but some of it is indoubt. Walton, elected captain Thursday night, bas not yet ac- cepted, nor will he during the next few days of uncertainty attached to the ques- tion of his future employment. On the first of the month his present position with a bicycle company in this City will become vacant. 1f the Reliance Club members can secure him employment somewhere he will play, buthe isnot at all eager to go into the game again, for be declares that he has had enough and thinks that after a man leaves college he shouid let footbal! alone. Middlem: mentioned in one of the morning papers as a_Reliance possibility, will not leave the Olympics, so Captain Smith and Manager Gill positively as- serted yesterday. Frankenheimer, another prospeet, is doubtful. Harrelson, the old Stanford quarter, will, it is_believed, piay uarter for Reliance. Sherman, the ?!erkeley end, will also play. And in ad- dition to the well-known old players and such other new ones as were mentioned in these columns last week Reliance will have Wagner, guard on the Cornell V; for the last turee seasons. He is now in Los Angeles, but hopes soon to Qakland. He is a big. powerful man and has faced all the »*= guards of the East. 2 BASEBALL.

There will be a game at the Presidio grounds to-morrow between the Famous team of Oakland and the Osobrights of San Francisco. e S CRICKET CHIRPS. Abandonment or the California- Australian Match. In spite of the untiring efforts of a spe- cially appointed committee the contem- plated match with the Australian eleven will not come off. This regrettable result is due to the large number of Eastern fix- tures made by the visitors, which limited the one or two dates still at their disposal to midweek days. Anything but a Satur- day and Sunday match in San Francisco would, even if the necessary team could be got together, be a sure financial failure, so the project was abandoned judiciously- There was great excitement shown by the Portland people in the All-Oregon vs. The Next Eighteen match, played at the Multnomah grounds last Saturday. The All-Oregon team was made up of candi- dates for the representative State team that will go to Vancouver for the forth- coming carnival. It was captainea by Charley Lawrence. The match was as close as possible, being won by the eleven by just one run amid the wiidest enthu- siasm on the part of the attending crowds. The Penryn Club team 1s making ar- rangements for a fall tour that will in- clude Lake County and possibly Bakers- field. They will make a stay in_this City long enough to meet the several ciubs of the association. The final Anglo-Australian match, finished at the oval on the 12th inst., re- sulted in a win for England by 66 ranms. This makes the twelfth inter-country match that the Britishers have won since 1880 on their own ground. Tbe Austra- lians have won three and four have been drawn. The order of the_ first-class counties to date is as follows: Yorkshire, Lancashire, Surrey, Mi.dlesex, Essex. Surrey has just defeated Kent by ten wickets and Glouces- tershire worsted Notts by 307. Sewell of the conquering team made 104. The local cup matches for to-morrow are Alameda ys. Pacifics at Alameda and Bohemias vs. Californias at Golden Gate. UMPIRE. SO S Bay Fishing. Tee Carv’s Sausalito correspondent sends the following report of catches made during the past week: Bay ing has been good during the past | week, slthough the tides have not been favor- able.” We have now passed the last heavy spring tides for the season, aud the best salt- water fishing in the bay is to commence and will continue until the heavy rains fall. The summer winds ere about to cease, while the water being at its greatest degree of saltness, | the larger fish which frequent the ocean | shores are coming into the bay in pursuit of | smelt, sardines and other smail fish, their nat- ural 10od. On Monday last Thomas Brennan, the well- known angler, with two companions, caught eighty-three pounds of red and blue rockfish at Point Cavailo, the largest a blue rockcod weighing 314 pounds. On Tuesday Joseph Hawkins and friend caught a large string of red rockcod and one eleven-pound green codfish at Lime Point fog whistle. Smelt have been more plentiful during the week and some good catches have been made near Bausalito, Lut the Jargest have been caught at Target Rock pear Belvedere. On Sunday last Al Thomsen and friend caught 115 of these fish in a few hours. BELISCDS ABSENT WIE The Actor - Manager Seeks a Divorce From His Missing Spouse. Married Thres Years, During Two of Which the Couple Have Been Secparated. | Frederick Belasco, actor, playwright, in- structor in histrionics and manager of the Alcazar Theater, has sued his wife, Grace Belasco, for divorce. Belasco’s real name is Isaacs and it was under this rather com- mon cognomen that he was married, and consequently under this that he sought a separation. Asaresult, the fact of the filing of the suit has only recently become pub- He. The Belascos have only been married three years, having been joined in wed- lock in Wisconsin in 1893 while both were members of a traveling company. They lived together only a year, when Mrs. Beiasco_went to New York and left her husband here. Hence the suit for aivorce on the charge of desertion. Frederick Belasco is a brother of Davil Belasco who gained fame as a playwright and subsequently as theathletic instructor of Mrs. Leslie Carter, for whose tuition as an_accress he secured $25,000 from N. K./ Fairbanks, the Chicago millionaire. I The local Belasco is a well known and | clever actor and has for some time con- ducted a school of actiug in San Franeisco. Recently he assumed charce of the Alcazar, ‘which resort is to be reopened under his management in a short time. ————— THE GRAND JURY. Brief Session to Censider the Final Re- port—A Morton-Street Scheme. The Grand Jury held a regular session yesterday and discussed the final report. An adjournment was taken until next Tuesday. At that'time a decision may be reached for an adjournment sine die. The expert is working on the final report, and should have it completed some time next week. The Grand Jury is advised that a scheme has been devised for the re- occupstion of Morton street by dissolute women immediately on the final adjourn- ment of this jury. Chief Crowiey is aware of the fact that a man calling him- seif an attorney recently collected money from the expelled tenants on the repre- sentation that he could reopen the houses for the purposes for which the apartments were formerly used. A petition to reopen the houses was recently signed by several firms on Grant avenue. Members of the Grand Jury dre positive thata scheme has been concocted to restore the banished tenants.

Tenants and Property-Owners Are A'ready Consulting Their Attorneys. The indications are thai the Board of Health will have a healthy job on its hands before it succeeds in ousting the tenants of the Chinese dens that were re- rently condemned as unfit for human hab- itation. The ten days that were given those who livein the hovels that were first placed under the ban bave elapsed, but the board has taken no steps to enforce its orders, probably because rumors have reached the members that at the first move toward an eviction injunctions will be taken out to prevent such procedure. The first direct intimation that legal re- sistance was intendea came yesterday, when a communication was receivea at the Health Office from M. Schuppert, who owns the building at 832 Jacsson street, protesting against the condemnation of his property. The document from its form and legal phraseology was evidently made up by an attorney and appears to be intended as a foundation for court proceedings in case the building 1s torn down. The Chinese tenants as well as the owners of the prop- erty they occupy, are getting nervous over the condemnations and are preparing for | a legal battle. Those wbolive in the lodging-houses ap- parently do not care about the edict of the board, but a number of merchants whose places of business have been condemned are worried and have already consulted attorneys. A number of them called on Attorney John Sullivan yesterday and asked him to interpose should the attempt be made to drive then: from the reeking structures they now occupy. Health Inspector Kinne will soon have a new lot of buildings to recommend for condemnation. ——————— Mrs. Hume Injured.
