THE S FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 24, 1896. A WEEK OF SPORTS. Notes of the Gun, the Rod, the Wheel, the QOar and the Ring. The arrival of Jack McAuliffe, the champion light-weizht pugilist, has stirrea up an interest in boxing. Mec- Auliffe arrived on the Acapulco and will go into immediate training for a ten- reund contest with James Fleming Carroll, which will be held in this City | next month under the auspices of the St. George's Club. The wheelmen have arranged for several road races t0-morrow. Oarsmen who are in training for the regatta look forward to sharply contested races between the local crews and the big scullers of Stockton. The opening of the new coursing track | at Ocean View next week will give an im- | petus to the sport. { The sportsmen are growling because of a continuance of fine weather. They say that good shooting will not be had until after the first stor) i) 3 THE WHEELMEN. Three Road Races and Several Record Trials on for To-Morrow. CLUB EVENTS. Alameda Cyclers—Rord race, San Le- andro to Haywards. Culifornia Cycling Club—Road San Mazteo to San Carlos. Camera Club Cyclists—Run to Canyon. Imperial Cyecling Club — Road Fruitvale to Haywards. San Francisco Road Club—Run to Hay- | wards. | race, Niles | race, | More road races and record trials are | scheduled for to-morrow, and with the con- | tinuance of fair weather there will probably | be a number of these events each week. | The course from San Leandro to Hay- | wards was never in better condition than | now, and fast time is always the rule. | Walter F. Koster, the crack Olympic | professional, intended to try for the five- mile record there to-morrow, but met | with an accident Thursday which will ‘ oblige him to defer the attempt. He was | following a triplet pacing machine manned | by George E. Dixon and 8. B. Vincent, | Bay City Wheelmen, and Russell Cush- | ing, Garden City Cyclers, when the triplet slipped in a wet place and went down. Foster was close up and piled right on top of the machine and its riders. All were considerably bruised, and it is a wonder that no bones were broken. i George M. Hamlin of the San Francisco Road Club will try to lower Frank Byrne’s ten-mile record of 24:27 to-morrow, pac d | by several tandem teams. The general | impression is that he wiil do it handily. Then the Imperial Cycling Club has a ten-mile handicap race on the cards, which will start from High street, Fruitvale, at 11 o’clock. Captain Trolliet will take the members over on a run on the9 o’clock | boat. T1he entry-list is Jarge and an inter- esting race is promised. Several of the Imperials wili ride in this race for the sole purpose of lowering the existing record, and there is no reason why Lind, Cook and one or two others should not turn the trick. The Alameoa Cyclers will hold a five- mile race to-morrow morning at 10 o’clock irom San Leandro to Haywards, for which there are thirty-four entries, who have been handicapped as follows: A. E. Cumbers and _J. G. Hurley, scratch: C. A. Park, 15 sec.; George Thorn and E. M. Whalley Roos and M. Gaines, 45 sec.; . Taft and J. Moller, 1 min.; ¥. iestly, George Wittman end_J. Gutte, 1:15; Thomas, W. M. Ramsey and D. Jacobson, 1 C. Kleupfer, George Morse and C. N, Boite, 1:45; H. Kleuofer, J. G. Stubbs and George Muther, 2 min.; Hu Fortner and J. Cameron, 2: n, 2: . Thorn and_Fred G. White, 2:45; rdes, James Ross, Frank Woodrum and T. C. Stoddard, 3 min. Captain Argenti has called a run of the Camera Club Cyeclists to Niles Canyon for to-morrow. Members and friends wiil bring lunch and take the 8:45 o’clock narrow-gauge boat for Alameda. The distance is eighteen miles and the roads are now in good condition. The California Cyeling Club will have a five-mile road race to-morrow over the San Mateo-San Carlos course. Nomina- tions for officers for the ensuing term will be made at the regular weekly meeting next Monday night. The customary way to locate a puncture - C. M. Smith, G. C. C,, Five-Mile World’s Champion. is to immerse the wheel in a tub of water, Wherever the air bubbles there will be found a puncture. In some cases, how- ever, the air pressure is not sufficient to make the air bubbles. In cases of this kind lather some soap and smear it over the tire. A soap bubble will form over ‘evary puncture, it matters not how small t is, Tbe third party of the Imperial Cyclin, Club will be held in Odd Fellows’ Hal next Friday evening. Many of the crack local amateurs are in training for the road races to be held at BSan Rafzel, November 8, under the man- agement of Frank Byrne. L. 'W. Burris, N."C. Babin and G. W. Gerbard joined the Bay City Wheelmen this week. The club members are work- ing bard for its political candidates, Judge Kerrigan, Judge Dunne and George P. Wetmore, and expect they will be elected.

R. M: WELCH, Member National Racing Board. The racing men who had grievances with the racing board and officials of the associated ciubs regarding the recent ten- mile road race have expressed themselves as more than satisfied witk the very fair treatment they were accorded at last Mon- day night's meeting. Every one was | given satisfaction in some way, and the racing board covered itself with glory by its clever handiing of the many pro- tests. What seemed a hopeless tangle was finaliy completely straightened out, and Birdsall, Smith, Dohrmaun and Hogg were all given the benecfit of the doubt and received their prizes t e snmelssif o much for having competent officials_in office, the cycling editor of an evening puaper to the contrary notwithstanding. The associatad clubs’ = theater party Wednesday night last was snch a big suc- cess that all credit is due Messrs. H. H. White, R. M. Weich, G. H. Stratton, A. P. Swain, J. F. Hancock and E. B. Je- named Thompson killed eighty-nine aucks, Frincipally teal, widgeon and spoonbill, 1n two days’ stooting in the marshes near McGills last week. A majority of the hunters who were out during the opening days of the season re- turned without a feather. Thomas Casey shot over his English setter, Dot, last Sunday on the Pacheco ranch and of fiity-six cartridges he wasted on the hillsides he bagged five quail. Thomas reports that his gu n was not in good working order. Charley Cate has but recently recovered from a severe attack of pneumonia. He hopes, however, to be sufficiently con- valescent to give the mallards of Alviso a hot reception before they take their departure from the marshes. The well-known rail-shooter, Ed Sulli- van, indiscreetly took a little nap last Saturday on a bunchb of poison oak after a hard tramp in pursuit of quail over the Belmont hills, and as a resuit Eaward is now look‘ng out of one eye at his friends. In other words, Sullivan has got the swelled head. ‘W. J. Ahern, the presiding officer of the Sportsmen’s Protective Association, has called a mass-meeting of ail sportsmen who are interested in duck-shooting lor Thursday eveuing next. United States District Attorney Knight has been adyised by Government engi- neers that the Frank Horan slough in the Suisun marshes is unquestionably navi- gable, and that a blockade or obstruction to navigation in those waters is a trans- gression of the laws ot this country. Mr. Knight has written on to the Attor- ney-General at Washington for informa- tion as to what action he can take in the matter. The offense for the blockading of navigable waters is a serious one, to which a heavy fine and punishment is attached. The following letter from W. J. Abern, president of the Sportsmen’s Protective Association, is seli-explanatory : Editor Call: There will be a mass-meeting of the Sportmen’s Protective Association in Albion Hall, Aleszar builling, on Thursday evening, October 29, at 8 o'clock sharp. Legis- date for Mayor, to stili bring the event off. He will wait on the Southern Pacific officials Monday, and if they won’t agree to raise the appropriation he will let the affair drop. Gus Carson, the afterwaist man of the South End senior crew, states that he will be unable to row with the crew in any of the future regattas, as the position he has ust received will deter him from training for a race. James Pallas, the afterwaist of the South End’s intermediate crew, will take Car- son’s place in the senior parge, and if the Thanksgiving day regatta takes guce the seniors will row the Stockton Giants or any other crew on the coast. Flanders ot the Ariel Club has put a searchlight on his launch, which is a noy- elty. The light is of 2000 candle-power, and an object can be discerned on the darkest night three miles away. Fianders had his boat outside the heads last Sunday to test her seaworthiness, and incidentaily to do a little fishing. The fol- i Andy Carrol , Fred Redmond Albvert Carrol, E.

This afternoon Stanford will play Reli- ance on the Central Park gridiron. It will be their first meeting this season for blood. They engaged in a practice game about a month ago for preparation against other teams, but neither side scored. Since that time Reliance has opened the football season by handily defeating Berkeley, while Stanford made of her first match a no-score contest with Olympic. Both teams, therefore, will come together to-day for their second match with a clean record and will fight hard to hold DUCK SHOOTING IN THE SUISUN MARSHES. rome, the committee in charge of the ar- rangements. Mr. Hancock, as secretary- treasurer, was particularly active, and President White did much work to make the affair the success it was. Meade Mitchell Shields, a_well-known wheelman of Los Angeles, is in the City, in charge of the youthful baseball team from the city of the Angels. Shieldsisan ex-Bay City and is well-known among the old-timers in wheeling circles here. G. A: Wahlgreen, the popular manager of the Cycling West of Denver, is in the City on business connected with his paper, and 18 renewing many vleasant acquaint- ances made on the occasion of his first trip last winter. Wilbur F. Knapp, the popular an- nouncer and satesman, left for the East last night to visit_his relatives in Denver and Cleveland. He will also visit several of the big Eastern factories, study the trade situation there, and will return with some new ideas about how races sheuld be announced. The annual election of the San Fran- cisco Road Club last Tuesday evening re- sulted asfollows: O. R. Sterling, president; A. W. Wehe, vice-president; Max Mever, financial secretary; R. Comyngs, record- ing secretary; L. Morris, treasurer. The captain will pe Joseph' 8. Lewis, who appointed John Joseph O'Malizy and Harry Raymond his first and second lien- tenants, respectively. Captain Lewis has called a run for to-morrow to witness Hamlin’s record trial, taking the 11 o’clock boat, and a blind run for the following Bunday. The ballots cast during the past ten days for officers of the North California Division, League of American Wheelmen, will be counted next Monday. The di- vision now has 1612 members, seventeen having joinea during the past week, in- cluding the following from San Francisco: E. V. Cobby, C. K. Bonestell, Mark P. Geirrine, Ira P. Good, E. ¥. Leitch, H. Macondray, Atherton Macondray, Samuel Swift. SpaLpING. A Ta R DUCK AND QUAIL. Sportsmen Who Met With Indif- ferent Success. Duck and quail hunters are anxiously waiting for the first good rainstorm, which will very materially improve both marsh and upland shooting. Quail have been found quite plentiful in many places not far distant from this City, but sportsmen who have tramped the slippery hills in the hove of securing good shooting report that they found the birds very wild and bid away in places where the undergrow!h ‘was too heavy to be penetrated by dog or man. Quail will remain close to heavy cover until the eartk will be the recipient of a good drenching, after which time the lovers of quail-shooting may look pleas- antly forward to first-class sport, pro- vided, of course, that they will be accom- panied by one or two well-broken dogs. Quail-shooting is indeed a rough and vexing pastime when the sportsmen has to act dog himself. Still, a pointer or set- ter that is not thoroughly trained is un- questionably an intolerable nuisance in the field. Latest reports from Suisun are to the effect that the northern flizht of wild ducks has arrived and that tolerably good sport is now enjoyed by those who shoot over decoys. Two hunters who are rusti- cating 1n McRae and Merkle's ark bagged fifty-seven large ducks last Tuesday, and it is said that tnree hunters from Suisun made quite a large killing of teal and mal- lard on Wednesday evening. Birds are very plentiful in the Suisun marshes, but the cream of the shooting is yet to come. The first storm will open up a great day’s shooting in the Suisun. Sonoma and Alameda marshes. Billy Williams bagged between three and four dozen birds near Midshipman's Slough, in the Sonoma marshes, last Thursday, and a man | City at about 9:30 p. M. lative candidates who indorse our stand on the preserve club question will be in attend- ance. Prominent speakers will address the meeting. Our attorneys to-day received word from the United States District Attorney that he agreed with us that the Frank Horan Slough was navigable and that the Cordelia Shooting Club had been notified to remove the obstruc- tion and barricade. Very respectfully, WILLIAM J. AHERN, ey il THE ANGLERS. Locke Speclal Train for Sportsmen and Anglers to Russian River. There are brief periods during the win- ter months when the young salmon run up the Rassian River in schools, in fact when the stream is literally swarming with fish, and Excursion Manager Locke proposes to take advantage of these periods to give the sportsmen of this City and vicinity special excursions at these times, whereby they can go up to Dun- cans Mills and enjoy a whole day’s sport and get back to the City Sunday night, in this manner having the fun without in- terfering with business. To carry out his plans Mr. Locke has arranged with the North Pacific Coast Railroad to furnish a special train to connectwith the boat which leaves the Sausalito ferry at 11:30 o’clock the first Saturday night after the salmon make their appearance in the river, for which ¢vent Lie has arranged to be notitied by telegraph. This train will reach Duncans Mills about 4 o’clock Sun- day morning, where breakfast will be ready, so that the anglers can get to work at daylight. Returning, the start will be made at about 5:30 in the evening, reaching the Preliminary to the start Mr. Locke is now securing the names and addresses of all who desire to g0,50 as to notify each person by mail when the time arrives, as the fish are liable to make their appearance almost any time now, and when they arrive it will require quick work to get ready for the trip. The railroad company owns several thousand acres of timbered land just this side of Duncans Mills, which is open to quail- hunters, who also will receive exceptional adventages by the prospective trip, as they will be dropped off at any point be- yond Howards. A populor rate will be given for this special excursion and all hunters or anglers who desire to participate should communicate with Mr. Locke at 333 O'Far- sell street without delay. Attached to the train will be one or more speciai cars in which there will be no smoking, con- viviality or loud conversation, for the ac- commodation of gentlemen who desire to take their wives, but the train proper will be a typical sportsmen’s special. In the event of parties of friends being formed of sufficient number they will be provided with private cars for the round trip. Already considerable interest has been manifested in ‘he event, nearly eighty subscribers having been neured’ for the initial trip. b du THE OARSMEN. How the Regatta Committee Was Treated by the Rallroad Company. The Southern Pacific Company has given the oarsmen =2 bad shaking up financially, and unless the Pacific Ath- letic Association secures prizes from some of the open-bearted citizens the regatta which was to be rowed on Oakland Creek on Thanksgiving day, and for which ex- tensive preparations were already made, will fali through, as the railroad company has seen fit fo cut its original appropria- tion of $200 almost in two. 8. J. Pembroke, the instigator of the affair, thinks he can induce the company to give an amount sufficient, with the prizes he has received from John D. English and James D. Phelan, the candi- the encouraging supremacy of no defeats. Game will be called at 3 o’clock. These are the players and the way they will face their opnonents: Staiford. Position. Reliance. Joits.

Ha t K., Waiton (capt.) Fisher. ‘R. Halt L', .. .Carter Soper. . Fullback. A, Arlett In preparation for this match Reliance has had several practice games with Berkeley, trom which, if the Oakland clubmen have gained any points at all, they have certainly learned the advantage of fast playing. Stanford, after witness- ing on last Saturday Berkeley’s snappy lay that resulted in a signal victory over &ympic. have taken the hint and will un- doubtedly put upa much livelier game than in the earlier match with Olympic. All this week the practice on the Stanford campus has been particularly lively, the individual players showing more *‘ginger” than ever before. Jeffs, the Stanford varsfty left end of last year, who has until a week past been handicapped with rheumatism, has taken his old position on tbe line and has been putting up a strong, lively, sggressive game, characterized by all the fierceness that made him such a sure man in cover- ing territory and securing fouls as catcher on the varsity baseball team. . Murphy, the promising freshman quar- terback, who was laid off bya slight in- jury, complicated by serious paternal ob- Jections, is another valuable possibility that has again materialized. He of all the Stanford players, it has been said, has the best head for the game, and to him the freshman class looks to captain its own leam to victory against the Berkeley freshmen, and perchance to general the playing in the great Thanksgiving match. Reliance and Stanford should play much the same style of ¢ame. Both have strong, i eavy lines, and neither is particu- larly qualified for a punting game. The play will prooably be characterized by fierce line-bucking, to which the backs of both teams are particularly trained. There can be little doubt that both Reli- ance and Stanford have more powerful linesmen this season than either Olympic or Berkeley. The question is, Can they play in proportion to their strength? Last Baturday Berkeley's backs made repeated ains round the Olympic tackles. who, ause they were helplessly inefficient, failed signaliy to break up formations that passed them comparatively without oppo- sition and resulted in long runs that would not have been possible against tackles knowing the duties of their position. That hardly a gain was made thiongh the Olympic centermen was proof of their su- perior strength, but they did not use that advantage in tearing through their weaker opponents on the college line to break up passes andpunts. Burnett, the Reliance center, Oliver, the guard, and Sexton, the rtackle, are sup- posed to be the strongest threa men ‘in those positions in the four big teams. Oliver is the vreatest of the right euards when his unusually fine interference is considered in addition to bis work in his position. The Reliance and Stanford lines should be almost equal, with an advantage for Stanford in her ends offset by the ability of Reliance nearer the center of the lines. At quarterback Stanford should Lave the better man. Fisner of Stanford at half is almost if not fully the equa! of Captain Walton of Reliance, while several of the other Stanford candidates for half- back are better player- than Carter of Re- liance, whose effeciiveness depends much upon Walton's interterence for him. Ar- lett, the Reliance fullback, though com- paratively a new player and not a very good punter, is a heavy, dashing back and a good ground-gainer. He is hardly a match, though, for either Soper or Free- man of Bunford in & punting game. It has been said by old enthusiasts of Berkeley that this year's University of California team is probably the best lot of football players that have yet represented the blue and gold. A similar assertion was made by members of the Stanford faculty in reference to the players that will this season defend the cardinal. Berkeley’s wonderfully rapid improve- ment, as judged by the disastrous game with Reliance and the recent excellent ex- hibition against Olympic, has frightened the Palo Alto men, who were at first in- clined to rely too much upon the weak- nessof the Berkeley line in fizuring out the possibilities of the Thanksgiving game. AT COURSING. Reopening of Ocean View Park Un-~ der New Management. Coursing men will be pleased to learn that Ocean View Park, one of the finest inclosed coursiug fields in America, will reopen on Sunday, November 1, under new management and with entirely new accommodations. The grand stand is be- ing rebuilt in such a manner that the poolbox and other arrangements will be entirely under cover and as comfortably arranged as any park in this vicinity. The opening of the park is due to the in- creased interest in the sport. Time was when one park could accom- modate all, but that has passed and the popular demand is for another park where dogs which cannot run on the grounds now operated, because of the character of the soil, can have a show. Ocean View is admitted by all to be a superior winter coursing ground and will doubtless be liberally patronized, particu- larly as a splendid lot of Merced hares, the same as will be coursed at the inter- state meeting, are now in the paddocks. A new entrance will be opened opposite the new grand stand, which has been built sixty feet cityward from the old one. This gives better facilities for reaching the cars of Sunnyside and Ocean View which will stcp opposite the stand on both the up and down trips. The entrance fee for opening day will be $2, with $60 and a $40 bronze clock added. A large number of first-class nominations have already been made for the stake, which will probably be limited to thirty- two dogs. A separate stand has been pro- vided for ladies and admission will be free toall. The management will be in the hands of the Ocean View Coursing Club, whici is composed of some veterans and some new men in coursing. Following is the result of the drawing for the coursing at Ingleside Park to-mor- TOoW: For the all-aged—M. Kerrigan’s St. Lawrence vs. G. Parkinson’s Fireman, 8, C. Curtis’ West Side vs. M.

Jack McAuliffe, the light-weight cham- pion pugilist, arrived yesterday on the steamer Acapulco from New York. His friends were at the wharf to welcome him, but when Jack stepped off the plank there was only one man in the crowd who recog- nized him, and had it not been for a tip that he received from one of the passen- gers the pugilist would have positively escaped unnoticed. Why McAuliffe’s friends failed to pick bim out from among the passengers is readily explained. Jack does not look a bit like his former self. He has grown as fat as a mush melon, and how he can pos- sibly train off thirty or forty pounds of tallow in a month is a conundrum which even the great master of ceremonies, Wil- liam Jordan, Esq., would not attempt to solve. But McAuliffe is here nevertheless and reports having had_a very pleasant sea voyage from New York to Frisco. Jack says he thumped several punching-bags to pieces while on board ship and that he assisted the firemen more than once to vile coal into the furnace. Whatever kind of manual labor McAuliffe performed on board the Acapulco his appearance would indicate that for every pound of flesh he lost he gained two. But Jack is as confident, nevertheless, of whipping Carroll as he is of returning to New York after the battle is over. He says that he will not find it muck of a trick to drop off twenty pounds or so of avoirdupois in a month when on dry land, and that fora ten-round contest he will not need to be in racehorse shape. Jimmy Carroll has different ideas regard- ing the conditicn a man must necessarily bein to go through ten rounds of heavy smashing, and he has trained with a view of whipping General Jack in short order. But time will tell whetherold age and fine condition can turn the tables on youth and poor condition. . Manager Groom has not yet given up hope of matching Sharkey and Fiizsim- mons, although the latter does not seem to be particularly anxious to get into a ring with the sailor. Corbett is out of the race. Groom says if Fitzsimmons will refuse to give him a decisiye answer within a week that he will offer very flattering inducements to Peter Mabher to meet Sharkey in this City. s o vty HANDBALL. Games That Wil Ba Sharply Con- tested To-Morrow.

INSPECTOR, Another Well Known Citizen Who Owes Health to Paine’s Celery Gompound, Above is the picture of another of the thousands of well*known citizens whom Paine’s celery compound has made well. Chief Postoffice Inspector M. D. Wheeler of Washington, D. C., writing to the pro- prietors of this most wonderful of cur- atives, says: *1 have used Paine’s celery compound with marked improvement 1n health. At the time I commenced using it I was very much run down from overwork and was advised by a friend to try it. I began al- most immediately to improve, and after taking three bottles felt well enough to discontinue its use, and have been perma- nently benefited. I heartily recommend it to the public.” Mr. Whe-ler has found out what every one should learn—that putting heart and soul in one’s business no longer means sticking to the desk, counter or workroom till the head grows dizzy, the back aches and neuralgic twinges shoot through the frame. They are the shori-sighted men and women who put up with this state of things when the risk is so great and the remedy so easily within their reach. As weakness, nervousness, languor and sleep- lessness are clearly the result of low nerv- ous nutrition, so permanent relief will come from rapidly building up the wasted nerve tissues. Paine's celery compound is the means best calculated for this end. Paine’s celery compound purifies and reinforces the blood in a way that no other remedy has ever attained. There comesan immediate clearing of the jaundiced, muddy complexion; neuralgic and ‘“‘sick® headaches cease to afflict, and the formerly wretched sleeper enjoys the blessings of sound restoring sleep. Given the hearty appetite, the sound sleep and the pure blood, all the other needful things that g to making what we call perfect healt! are sure to follow. Low spirits, constant brooding over fan- cied wrongs and imaginary slights, melan- cholia and fretfulness are not treated as seriously as they deserve. They are evi- dent faults of the tired, nervous system and are to be corrected by putting an end to the neglectiul condition of those vital parts. Don’t wait for nervous prostration. When headaches continueand that tired feeling keeps up, or pain is felt over the kidneys, arouse the body from its un- healthy condition, get rid of not only these symptoms, but of the underlying causes, by prompt recourse to Paine’s celery com- pound. This great nerve and brain re- storer will not leave a vestige of kidney disease, nervousness, unhealthy state of the liver or heart trouble. & Its way of curing these alarming com- plaints is direct and unfailing. It replaces unhealthy tissues by new and bealthy partsand cleanses and purifies the blood until the tired body regsins the elas- ticity and high spirits that are the sure accompaniment of perfect hea!th. WHO CURES WEAK MEN? After you have read what is claimed for the many remedies advertised for the cure of weak- ness in men, after you have noted the counter boasts of the big quacks in medicine, and considered the great work which they claim to be doing for science and humanity, you wonder how it is that every weak man in the world has not already been made strong, Surely such multitudes of cures as they promise must quickly absorb all the subjects ready to be worked upon—if they cure. The fact that thousands of men have tried all of them, one after another, in turn, and finally given up in despair proves that they do not cure; the stronger fact failed they finally tell their patie is an electric belt, which THEY h at in nine cases out of ten after the medicine has nts that the only cure for them ave for sale, is proof that they start at the wrong end—medicine first, and electricity as a last resort. Then what does cure weak men? The answer is plain. Those who have had experience with all sorts of treatment, and have finally been cured, vouch for DR. SANDEN’S ELECTRIC BELT. Start right by using it first, and there will then be no need for drug treatment, of which so many unfortunate sufferers have sickened. If youdo not use electricity at first you will have to in the end, for nothing else will restore the power of the nerves and vital organs. H. Stuart, 1139 Market street, San Francisco, says: *‘I purchased onme of your belts last spring for seminul weakness, from which 1 had suffered many years. I spent all the money I earned for medicine, but to no avail.
