THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, APRIL 3, 1897. - FIELD OF SPORT. ‘.Tl"le Anglers’ Day Has Arrived—All About the Rifle, Bat, Oar and Leash. Inall probabilltw there will be 8 boom | materially lessened Thie arrival of | same during the closed season. " in baseball this summer. the Australian bazseball-players, who are dne here on Thursdsy, will give an im- petus to the sport. Thé, yachtsmen are getting ready as fast as possible for the opening of the season; which gives promise of much bril- Jiancy. The snglers have had a bad setback, ow- ing tothe teavy rains.of recent date, but the north winds are assisting very materie ally-in placing the ‘streams in condition for fly.and spoon fishing. The sportsmen are having much pleas- ureé at their favorite pastime which is blue- rock shooting. The rifle-shiooters are ex- pecting a great’'day’s outing to-morrow at the San Rafael Park, where the annual otting and pr nooting festival of the California Schuetzen Club will be hald. et e THE WHEELMEN. To-Morrow the Great Annual Re- “lay Race Around the Bay. . Everything is in readiness for the great annual relay.race of the California Asso- ciated Cycling Clubs, which will take place ‘to-morrow. Thjs afternoon the riders, trailers and officials will go to their positions on the different relays, so as to be on the ground in ample time. In fact the.relay riders themselves have all been training over their various courses for a week or.more, some of them two or three timesa day. Even the recent storms did not interfere with this preparatory work, forelay races ere run rain or shine, and itiis well for a man to be experienced over *-his course in both wet and dry going. The ten clubs that bhave euterea teams are the same as last year with one excep- tion. _The San Jose Road Club is out of existence, so'its place nLas been taken by the Capital City Wheelmen of Sacra- mento, who "have cntered a strong team. The race will start mptly at 9 o’clock to-morrow morning from in front of the Biclorama, corner ot Market and Tenth streets. The route out of the City is from there to Ninth street, down Ninth to Fol- som and out Folsom to Twenty-fourth, finally resching the San Bruno road. The Telay packet should react San Jose in less than two hours and a half, and it will teke the same time to bringit up on the otber side. The total ride of 100 miles be made in about four hours and minutes, the finish tuking place at Central avenue and Grand street, Ala- meda, about 1:50 to-morrow afternoon. Herbert Clarke of the Alameda Cyclers has conceived a novel idea in_connection with the relav which he will put into execution to-morrow. A number of the menibers of the Signal Serv.ce Corps will be stationed on the relays on the Oakiand side of the way. They will flash signals of the men and their positions to some point on the Alsmeda hills, from where it will in turn be transmitted’ to signal men in Alameda The colors of the rigers in the relay will be as follow rs, oranze and black; old gold and crimson; The regular bi-monthly meeting of the hoard of sovernors of the Cal.fornia Asso- ciated Cycling Clubs will be held this evening at the rooms of the Imperial Cycling Club, 614 Van Ness avenue. Be- sides the usual routine business and mat- ters pestaining to the relay, the all-im- portant question of the C. A C. C. taxing up the .work of the League of American Wheelmen in this State will come up for final discussion, and a committee which has had the maiter in charge will submit ity report to the board. The importance of thisiauestion demands personalrepre- . sentation from every club in the associa- tion.” If it is impossible for any delegates 10 be present they shoula sénd their prox- ies 10 the secretary, 636 Market street, to- day, with instructions how the vote is to he cast. On thie 1st of March there were nearly 1700 members of the Nortn California Di- vision,.* Tne last bulletin show and several hundred expired April 1. - Q1 the other hand, Judge Kerrigan and Mr. « Welch are constantly being plied with quéries“as {0 the new orgagization, and 1be. prospects for an exceptionally large membership are brilliant. The -annual outing of the Olympic Cyclers to Esc: in Marin County, wili take’ place Sunday, April 11, and the in. vitatiom sent out by Capidin Cbarles F Morel sets forth the great. treat in store for the members.. A splendid entertain- ment has been arranged, which, accom- panied by -the usual excellent menu of eatable and drinkables and the ‘‘glad hand” style of greetinz for which the . C’s are famed, zssures a most enjoy- able time for ali who attend. The annual meeting of the members of the Imperial Cycling Club, at which offi- cers for the ensuing year will be nomi- nated. will take-place next Monday night, April 5 Z I he three weeks' indoor racing tourna- ment at the MechanicstPavilion, cut dow to twe weeks, ends to-nigut. lu some ways it has done good, and in others it | has been the-source of contention. It has helped the- *port somewhat. giving the Tacers an opportunity to win fame and prizes, and the trade will feel the stimulus by ancreased activity in their line. There were some features of the meet—so;called innovations—that were got taken fo very kindly. butit Is over with now. - “Man. ager’” Shafer is gomng to leave California, the crack Eastern-riders are going back, and we will seitle down to the old regime again with more or iess satisfaction. . The Eastern riders who came here all lefv a Very favorabie impression. They were a speedy Jot, and withal gentle- manly, and won their races in a fair, sportsmanlike manner. We hope to have the plaasure of seeing Fred Loughead, Jay Eaton, Will Becker, “Ottumwa’ Stevens; Morris, Bovee and the others again next winter, and they can be as. sured a-cordial reception. SpaLDING, o —_— ' THE GUN, The Lincoln Club Wil :Hold a Very Interesting Shoot To-Mor- row. The gun clubs are having no end of sport these days. Kach Sunday five or sixshoots are held at the grounds un the cast and west sides o the bay, and they . aregenerally well attended by the admi: ers of the'sport. To-morrow the Encinal Club will crack ciay biras at Birds Point; the California -Wing Shoofing Club will journey to Inglesice, where they will pep- per live birds; the Lincoln Gua Club, wiil -be strongly representei at Alameda Point shooting srounds, as one of the features of the prozramme is a 100-bjrd race, which wiil be participated in by manv of the “crack” pigebn shooters of this City. - An angler who is at present enjoyinz a few d g in Santa’ Cruz' County Writes that wild pigeons. are very plenti- ful near Boulder Creek, and that sports- men are having no end ‘of amusement bagging them: {be sportsinen of Ailameda County—ana . thévy number several bundrea—areé s unit in favor of Gem Warden Donovan being * retained “in the position be has so faith- fully filled for the past*vear. Mr. Dono- VAR has been instrumental in having many of thip streams in Alameda County stocked with game “fishes, and the several - arrests he has made of poachers bavo very the destruction of The fol- Towing letier is self-explanatory : Apart from the excellent work done by Don- ovan, the incumbent, it is pointed out that the office is absolutely necessary. The Siate nes spent nearly $5000 in siocking the streams with fish, and ii is certain that not a ent would be ¢xpended had it not been known that there was & game warden here. Then again it must not be forgoiten that Alameda County possesses some of the finest fishing grounds in tue State, the Alame Mocho and Bayou crecks being known over the coast in fishing circles. It would not take long, though, to fish them out if the pro= tection of the warden were withdrawn, and on this ground a:one it is apparent how essen- tial it Is to have an officer to enforce the game laws. The same is true as regards birds. Unless they were protected, in a year there would scarcely be a dove in Alameda County, and all other kinds of game would be ruthiessly slaughtered. Itis impossible, as suggesied by the Grand Jury, to have the duties of Game Wharden performed by the other peace officers, because they cannot devote the time and at: tention needed to such special work. All the sporting associations of the county sre joining in the appeal that is goiug up from the’ interior, end as the gun and fish clubs number about 500 well-known citizens their protest will be powerful. They wiil have a right 10 be heard, 100, for they are in many in- stances large properiy-owners, and many are in public life. Donovan, the incumbent in the wardenship, is credited. with being the most eflicient warden it this State. The salary is only $100 & month, and he spends (ully that sum, for he is on the go all the time. It is a labor of love with him, for he is an ardent sportsman, and his removal would wreak a gooa deal more harm than is entailed by his mild attack on the.county payroll. S e THE ANGLER. The Streams Are Clearing and the Prospects for To-Morrow Are Good. Quite & number of anglers who could not possibly miss the opportuniiy of wetting a lineon the first cay of the season re- turned yesterday from favorite streams with empty baskets and hungry stomachs. They roport that the creeks are too high and that the trout are so fat and lazy from devouring *‘fraits” of all kinds that they turn tail upon anything in the line of tempting food that an angler presents; but it is said, in undertones, of course, that George Walker has a June bug and Doc Watt a little brambling worm which will tempt the most aristocratic denizen of the babbling brook *‘to catch on” the instant that the lures pass within his ob- servation. Colonel Cooper, who is a stanch believer in Walker's celebrated bamboo cast, will journey to a little stream in Sants Cruz County, from which he expects to steala nice basket of fish. Cooper will certainly return with some beauties, as he isan artist of the old school. Dan O’Connell, the poet and Bohemian, vill Arab liko steal away to a promising stream not iar distant from Sausalito, and itisdollars to peanats ihat ‘‘the Dan” will return with something weignty. If he has not fish he will havea story well worth the attention of anglers. John Lemmer, O. Mouser, John Bergez and several members of the Tamalpais Club will wet lines in the Throckmorton lagoon. It is said that Tom Casey, “the | old man of the hills,” ana_his dog Dot | will join Senator Sydney Hall at Point | Reves to-morrow. Louis Rundeau and C, Precht will try the Glen Ellen stream. Biily Cooney and friends have arranged for 1 day’s outing in Sonoma County. A large number of | anglers will spend the betcer part.of to- | morrow on the Lagunitas and Paper-mill creexs. Fish Commissioners Emeric and Vogel- sang are prospecting for trout in some of the sireams that empty inio the upper Sacramento River. v fishing is out of question at present, and according to the appearance of weather and water there will not be any fly fishing worth mentioning unti« next moath, The spoon and the worm are the lures that will be used to the bestadvantage until the streams assume their summer appear- ance, The. following >letter from Lakeport to THE CALL 18 se!f-explanatory : LAKEPORT, April 1, 1897. For some time the game ana fish laws of the State have veen violated in this couaty, and the game & d fish ure threatened with extinction. The abuse has become so great ihat men and boys break the laws openly and sell trout end venison in the open market. Heretolore there have been no deputy game wardens, and no ome cared to take the respon- sibility on themselves of having the law en- forced because of the odium it would put upon them by the law-breakers and the business interests it would injure In order to overcome this difficulty the law= element has crjanized The Lake County Game Protective Association. with the following officers nd directors: President, ford Parrish; vice-president, Dr. C. W. Kel- retary, H. W. Brewer; treasurer, Wil e; directors—W. H. Luiwrence, E. Martin, H. W. Brewer, A. H. Spurr, M. B. El- Hott. All of these will be deputized by the State Game Warden. The association expects to have » membership of several hundred, and will bend their united efforts to ths cause they have espoused. All persons found breaking the law witl be prosecuted to tne fullest ex- tent. THE OARSMEN. The Picneers W.l Hold a Club Regatta To-Morrow. To-morrow morning four Pioneer Row- ing Club crews will have a race off Lone The crews are: Bridge. —K. Coliopy, . Ocis, stroke 3); M. Colnan (2); T. bow; G. Fitzsimmous, bow. Frea OFF, stroke; J. Kiunder (3); G. Darragh (2); J. Coanolly, bow, and . Fitzsimmons, cockswain, will race R. J. Espy, stroke; J. 1. Sullivan (3); W. Espy (2); F.’ Tuits, 'bow: T. Sands, cock- swain. The members of the South End Rowing Ciub will be greatly pleased when they bear that the four-oared barges have been repaired and are now in excellent condi- tion for the rowing season, which will practically commence next Sunday. Cap- tain Thomas has been working faithfully on the boats for the past two weeks, ana now that his labors are completed itis hoped that the members will show their appreciation by appesaring in the boat- house more regular on Sunday mornings. _Financial Secretary Breen bas been doing ;iood work since the last meeting and will have an 1nteresiing report to ren- der on next Sunday morning. At that time work on the handball court will con- tinue, as the club has almust enough money for its completion. Committees from the South End and Dolphin clubs will interview the Golden Gate Carnival commiitee during tne com- ing weck for the purpose of ascertaining .what arrangements, if any, have been mede for the regatta which is to_held on the bay on naval day, May 8. The crews of the different clubs are anxiously await- ing the report of the committee, as it is now time to begin training, and if suit- able prizes are given every club on the coast will be represented. President Ed tcully has already organ- ized three junior crews from the jong iist of new meinbers, and some Sunday in the near future the club will hold a try-out regatia, in which all the memuvers of the clubin’ good standing may enter. The winning crews will row in the carnival re. gatta. Captain Thomas has prepared a list of members whom he thinksare best qualified tor the junior event. Among them are: M. Tiernan, James Feeban, Joe Lyons, Will Fox, J. Menerin, Frank J. Burke, Archie Campbell, Jim Nealon, Joe Whelan, ‘I'nomas Lynch, Ed Leary, Herbert Haw- kins, Frank Tobin, Joseph O'Dea, Baidy Foley and William McGeorge. ockswain; These ambitious oarsmen will all be at the boathouse on Sunday morning when crews will be orzanized for the try out event. The baseball team has been practicing every Sunday since their victory over the Dolphins, - and —are.. now awailing a chdilenge from any amateur team in town. The French dinner has been postponed until Sunday, April 11, at 6 p. M., at Campi’s, 106 O'Farrell street. “Iudze T. A. Keogh, the popular member of the Bolphins, returned from Washing- ton, D. C., Tast eveni e THE YACHTSMAN. The Encinals Declide Not to Race ‘This Season. The directors of the Encinal Yacht Club have decided not to defend the perpetual challenge cup this year and under the arti- cles of agreement it will pass to the San Francisco Yacht Club, which will be the cup-defender for 1897. The cup has been won twice by the Encinals. It1s expected that at the next meeting of the Corinthian Yacht Club the board of directors will challenge on bebalf of the Truant for the cup relinquishea by the Encinals. Considerable damage was done to the Corinthian fleet at Tiburon last Saturday night. Frank Bartlett's yacht Queen dragged her moorings and fouled the Cisne, carrying away the latter's bowsprit and forward rigging. She also fouled the schooner Fiying Jiv, carrying away the foretopmast. The Queen escaped with comparatively little aamage. The Cisne also dragged her moorings and fouled tbe Freda. The only damage sustained was the scratching of the Freda's paint, which will necessitate re- Ppainting. Owing to the fact that the Nixie and the Clara are on the ways, the yachtsmen at Tiburon are in a dilemma, as there is a ‘carcity of ways, and the boats will have to go on the beach to have their bottoms scraped. Ex-Commodore Pew’s yacht Truant is on Frank Stone’s ways, preparatory to her being put in commission. The Luriine and the Kamona were out during the blow last Sunday under reefea mainsails and storm jibs. The boats pre- sented a fine appearance as they sailed tbrough Raccoon Straits, The first of the Corinthians’ boats to he placed in commission is the yawl Pinga. She was out for a sail last Sunday. ! Itis expected that Morrow & Wesler- feld’s yacht AEolus will be put in commis- sion to-morrow. st PN BASEBALL. The Australian Team WIIl Arrive on Thursday—To-Morrow’s Games. Doubtless there will be a large gatherine of baseball and cricket players at the Mail dock on Thursday to receive and welcome the Australian baseball players who are on beard the steamer Monowai. | The invaders will play a series of games in this City before they will journey to the East and it is hoped that the patrons of the National game will show their ap- preciation by turning out in strong force to see how the Australians will compare with home 1alent. Itis said ihat the foreigners play excel- lent bal! and that they will give their op- ponents a surprise, especially in fie.ding and base-running. The first game will be played at Central Park on Sunday, the 18:h inst., between the Australian and Olympic Club teams, when a large and enthusiastic crowd will certainly witness the contest. The San Francisco Athletic Club hopes to wipe out the defeat inflicted on it by the San Francisco Violets. Tbe Athletic Club bas met and defeated the best ama- teur teams of this Etate, but when it lines up against the Violets it becomes faint- hearted and the Violets go home happy.

A SELLING-RACE WiR IS NOW 0N Corrigan Bid Up and Se- cured the Plater Wyoming. A Race Taken Away From Suisun on a Questionab’e Claim of Foul Fort Avgustus Won at Odds 60 to 1—San Marco Firstsin a Gruclling Driv:, of There was a noticeable lack of bustle and business at Ingleside track yesterday. Friday 1s usually a dull day at the track, and it proved no exception to the rule. Six events were down for decision, of which favorites took three. The track was deep and slow time was the rule. An incident of the afternoon’s sport was the bidding up of Wyoming, owned by A. B. Spreckels. The big horse won the fifth event, a mile selling run, entered to be sold for $500. His price was boosted to $1000 by E. Corrigan, who secured the horse. As both of his fore feet are in poor condition it is questionable whether or not the master of Hawthorne and Ingle- side secured much of a bargain. California was given a race on a ques- tionable foul, but as Chicago and the Middle Western clique had their checks down on the mare good and hard there was no howl over the affair. The native racegoers generally do get the crumbs of the banquet. Ingleside’s once famed pop- Iarity is rapidly falling into decay. There was plenty of doing about Sal- mera in the two-year-old race, and backed down from 7to 5to4to5 the daughter of Salvator made all tke running, beating out La Maroma at the end by three furlongs, covering the four furiongs in 50 second The latier swerved badly in the stretch, ruining her chance of victory. Don Clarencio, the 13 10 20 choice for the next event, a mile and a sixteenth selling affair, was beaten through poor rigine. Clawson managed to get his mount cut off at the far turn, and in a punishing drive was led out by the 60 to 1 shot Fort Augustus, ridden by Slaughter. Suisun won the third event, a six-fur- long purse evest, in a hard drive from California, and was then disqualified for a foul. The latter was extensivelv played, ber odds being cut irom 6 to 5 to 9 to 10, and fought it out ail the way with Leigh's filly, Tod Sican, on Suisun, bumped Caiifornia near the furlong poie, and on “'Skeets” Martin, who rode the favorite, claiming a foul, it was allowed, to the in- tense satis‘action of the crowd. The mile selling run tbat followed farnished the most exciting finish of the day. San Marco, the 11 to 10 choice, stabborniy contested every foot of ground through the stretch with the second choice, Hazard, and at the wire got the decision by a nose. Morte Fonse, ridden by McHugh, was a good third. Wyoming, at odds of 6 to 1, captured the seven furiong selling run that foilowed and changed hands. Caliente wasa 1 to 2 chance in the befting, but was outfooted through the siretcu and beaten out less then a length by the Spreckels entry, which ruled a second choice in the ring. The concluding race on the programme, a mile purse, went to Vincitor, which went to the post an 8 to 5 choice, with St. Distaff at odds of 2to 1 next in demand. Taking the lead from Tulare on entering the stretch, the favorite downed that gelding very handlly, covering the distance in 1:4434. L NOTES, ‘The $5000 California Derby is down for decision to-day.

Matters Disposed Of by the Hoalth and Police Committee Yesterday. The Health ana Police Committee of the Board of Supervisors decided yester- day to recommend that the National Athletic Club be granted a permit to con- duct a boxing exhibition, not to exceed twenty rounds, on the night of the 23d inst. The ciubis to pay a license fee of $100 and also 5 per cent of the gross re- ceipts into the fund for the relief of the unemployed. The application of the South San Fran- cisco Gun Club to be permitted to conduct trap-shooting matches within the City and County was laid over for one week, to permit the expert of ihe Street Com- mittee 10 examine into the matter and report as to the danger to citizens from the shooting range. The committee recommended pl: file the application for a patrol- the new O'Farrell-street police station, on the ground that a wagon has already been detailed for the station, and_an applica- tion for more police boxes in the Rica- mond District. The application of the Point Lobos Im- provement Club, that the Market-street Railway Company be compelied to lower 1ts tracks on Lake street, between First and_Second avenues, belore bids for the paving of the thoroughfare are let, was reporied upon favorably. —————— Compass Adjustment. The Chamber of Commerce has addressed letters to the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey and to the United States Branch Hy- drographic Office in this City in relation to the necessity for providing, as an aid to navi- gation in the bay of San Fraucisco, s system of compass line bearings and of fixed moorings 10 bo placed in the harbor for the “swinging” of ships and steamers_desiring to have their compasses adjusted. There 1s & conviction that most of tue losses on this coast have been occasjoned by defective compasses, and that not sufficient attention has been generaily psid to their wdjustment. The question is one in which underwriters, ship-owners and sea- men are all interested, and the Chamber of Commerce proposes to push the matter until the needed improvement nas been obiained. ————————— A Young Women’s Mooting.

Mose Gunst’s Denial That He Sold Tengment-House- Made Cigars. Complaint That Sma'l Job O'fices and “K d” Work Are I juring Prin‘ers. The striking out of the appropriations’ for the State Printing Office by Governor Budd was the subject of & brief discussion last niznt in the San Francisco Labor Council. Delegate Ackerman announced that in consequence of the action of the Governor the State Printing Office would be closed for two years and several hundred men and women would be turned out of em- ployment. He asked that the council should express some opinion. It was suggested by Chairman Hawkes that Secretary Rosenberg shounid commu- nicate with the Governor and inquire as to the effect of the striking out of the ap- propriation. Mr. Ackerman said that it had been vrged that the State Board of Examiners could create a deficiency’and allow the bilis for wages, etc., of the State Printing Office, but it would require a unanimous vote of the State Board of Examiners, and he was certain that the Governor would not vote with the Secre. tary of State and the Attorney-General, because he was not on friendly terms with the State Printer, and would not ap- propriate anything for him. ? Delegate Benoist informed the council that the secretary of the Sacramento Typographicat Union had estimated that the present appropriation for the State Printing Office would not hold out longer than to July 1. He adyised the council to await the action of the Sacramento Typo- graphical Union, and that it would be prudent to wait another week beforedoing anything in the matter. The council de- cided that his advice was good. e The Cigar-makers reported that Mose * Gunst was, receiving communications from all parts of the State regarding the report that be was engaged in selling a certain brund of cigar which was tene- ment made. Mr. Gunst, the report wen't on to say, had denied the charge but the Cigarmakers’ Union were positive that he was doing so. g " From the Labor Council of Seattle, * Wash., came _the news that the Legisla- ture of that State had established a State Labor Bureau snd had passed laws re- quiring ‘tha empioyment of . competefit and experienced men on street, railways. Complaint was made that several union printers who owned small job offices and empioyed *kids” to do the work were in- juring the cause of union labor by doing jobs too cheaply. It was announced also ihat the working-cards of the Carpenters’ Union had been printed in a non-union office, but the chairman explained that, the printer who printed the cards had a permit from the union and had since-been reinstated. A letter was received from R. E. Bush * of Woodland, attorney for S. C. worder, under sentence of death for the murder of an engineer by train-wrecking during the railroad stri t Sacramento, announc- ing that be had*asked Governor Budd to set a day Next week ior the hearing of an appeal in favor of commuting the'sen- tence from death to imprisonment for life. 3 5 NEW TYO-DAY Energetic | Manhood | 0 BE STRONG AND MANLY I8 THE aim of every young man, and yet how many we find who are wasting the vitality and strength which nature gave them through the follies and errors of youth. Instead of developing into the strong, vigorous, manly young fellows that nature Intended them to be they find themselves weak, stunted and despondent; no am- bition to do anything; they struggle aimlessly along, sooner or later to become victims of that dread disease, nervous debility ; their finer sensibilities blunted and their nerves shattered—victims of a secret waste that is sapping the-very life and manhood out of them. Note the Difference’ Between this class of men and the strong, manly young fellow who has mot abused nature’s gifts, and who is in full possession of the gift of manhood that nature be- stowed upon bim—fall of life, vim and vigor, that should be characteristic of every young man. He is the envy of his fellowmen. His superiority isevident in his every * action, because he feels the confidence and strength of his manhood. Do you wohder why some young men yearn for the power that they have wasted through their eacly indiscretion? *‘To err is human,’” and that is why nature has provided a remedy.for the evils that come to tie young fellow who has di obeyed the laws of nature.
