Oneof a Party of San Joseans Perishes While Bathing. BAN JOSE, CAL., April 13.--John Olands, an Italian shoemaker of this ciiv, was seized with cramps while bathing at Al- viso this morning and drowned before his friends could reach him. Olanda with a party of friends went to Alviso this morning (o enjoy a day’s out ing. They bad procured a boat to go sail- ing, but decided to take a swim first. Olanda was the first in the water and al- most instantly was taken with cramps. He cried for help, but before his compan- ions could reach him he bad sunk three times. Grappling 1rons were procured and the slough dragged for the body, which was recove ate hours later. Olanda was about 35 years of age and unmarried.

What the New Governing Bedy Will Do for Cyclists. | Much of the Work Formerly Done by the League Will B: Handled. The Protest Over the Awarding of the Relay Cup to Be Settled To-Morrow Night. The California Associated Cycling Clubs has issued the following statement to the | wheelmen of California in further ex- vlanation of the abandonment of the | North California Division, League of American Wheelmen, and setting forth fully what it is the intention of the asso- ciation to do for iis individual members: California cycling 1s just passing through an cpoch-marking period in its histors. The situation hes become such as to provoke much comment and quesioning. The criti- cism and discussio’ among the wheeling pub- lic of the recent action of the board ot officers of this di on of the league are occupyiug s promineut piace in cveling affairs, and 10 the end thet the wheelinen of California may come to a correct understandiug of the facts they are here briefly p'aced before them. The members of the California Associated Cycling Clubs and prominent students of the sport had come to believe that it was not fur the t interests of the wheelmen of the State of California that the North California divi- sion of the Lesgue of American Wheelmen should be longer maintained. The benefits received from the North Cali- fornia division were entirely disproportionate to the amount of money expended in main- ning it. Last vear we sent Ea-t more than 369. 1f the 1600 members of the division— be umber it contained April 1—all renew, $1040 would be retsined by the Eastern offices of the league and but §500 remain to be used for the benefit of the Caiifornia mem- bers. Tne only tangible return received by the wheelmen of the State from the National body is League Bulietin, All the other benefits accruing from league membership in State nre thi the resuitof local effort in no National organization. The roadbook, the handbook, the touring boerd, (he legal protection efforded members, the system of loesl consuls and league hotels— all 1hese things are done with our own effort and with what remains of our owa money. | Desired degisiation looking to the protection of tne rights and privileges of whecimen and | to the imrrovement of strects and roads is | entirely the result of individual and local | effort. | “Agdin, California is a State far removed from the seat of government of the League of | American Wheeimen; the conditions are vastly different from those in the New Eng- lend States, and from our very remoteness it has been recently demonstrated that it is im- | possible to have the National Assembly of the | League ot American Wheelmen spprecinte that s different condition exists here and to rovide legislation accordingly. Toe California Associated Cycling Clubs has heretoore been & federation of clubs, baving or1ts objects the establisiment of amicable | relations among the ciubs of the State and to promote road-racing. In all that it bas under- | taken the organization has met with marked | success from s inception, for & period of five years. Atn meeting of the board of governors of | the California Associated Cyciing Clubs, held on April 3, such action was taken as svthor- ized the extension of the scope of usefulness of the organization and its aims and objects, to include all the functions of the North Cali- | fornia ision. | The Califoruia Associated Cycling Clubs, therefore, will hereafter furnish to its mem- bers, free of chiarge, a weekly official organ; i 1exal protection; reduced raies at hotels; | handbook containing the constitution and b; | laws of the organiziiion, suggestions for tou: | 1ng, & list of officiul hotels with reduced rates, | ali5t of district consuls, & list of repairers, | ete., et a roadbook containing maps of the | ridable roads of the State, showing their qual- | ity and condition, together with tables of dis- NOW FOR DOGS OF HIGH DEGREE Inaugural Bench Show of the San Francisco Ken- nel Club.

They fought their way to Fort Saisbury, losing two men and killing several of tbe enemy. As a relic of the fight he exhibits a wic »oking assezai, taken from a | native, wuom he was forced to quiet with | a bullet. At the fort 850 men were be- sieged by the warlike Mashonas for over a month, but were finally released by an | armed English force. The mines now being worked are, ac- cording to Mr. Elliott, the richest on earth and are in ail probability the iden- tical spots irom which the ancients ob- tained their zolden ornaments, as well as the gold which decorated King Solomon’s temple. The African prospecior does not look for float rock or croppings, as is the custom in this country, but sinks his shaft i the abandoned claims that abound, knowing that there he will find the yellow metal. The claimsare all geuting richer the miners go deeper, and there are few shafts more than 160 feet in depth, Nanves are paid $250 a month and white miners not less than $5 a aay, but Mr. ott does not advise wuite miners 10 go to Sonth Africa to compete witn tne | native labor unless under contract with Il-known firm.

Athletes Oppose the Attempt to Alter Rules Governing the Intercollegiate Match. ORD UNIVERSITY, CaL., April 13.—The published stnienent regarding proposed chances in the regulations for the coming intercollegiate field day has stirred up a good deal of indignation among the students. David Brown ‘97 said when seen regarding the disputed points: “The track teams, according to an in- tercoliegiate agreement, are governed by tne rules of the A. A. U. This organiza- tion, up t0 two years ago, specitied how many points each place in a race should connt—tlie winner five, second three and third one. This rule was then dropped by the A, A. U.

In the ab- sence of Major Winchell, Ensign Wood explained the plan at length and the greater part of his hearers registered for the first chance. Ensign Woods reports the wood camp at Cotati as thriving. Twenty men are employed there at present, and the num- ber will be doubled as soon as an oppor- tunity offers. Tne plan 1s somewhat so- cialistic. The owner of the land on which the trees are growing receives a certain roportion of all the wood cut on his place. ach iaborer pays the Salvation Army in wood, 40 cents a day for his board. With these deductions all the wood he cuts be- longs to him. ~The marketing of the product is atiended to by the army with- out charge. Major Winchell visited the varions min- isters yesterday in order to get them in- terested in the colonization scheme. He reports having received much encourage- ment. GUARANTORS TO PAY, The French Opera Season at the Cali- fornia Theater Has Not Covered 1ts Own Lxpenses. A good deal of curiosity has been felt as to wiether the French opera season would pay its own expenses, for although the prices ranged from one to three dollars, there were many rows of empty benches, particularly in the baicony. It now transpires that the season, like most grand overa seasons, was not self- supporting. The quarantors were pledged 1o the extent of $1000 each in order that this City might enjoy the luxury of an opera season. The guarantors will te called on 10 the extent of between $300 and $400 each in order to make up the season’s losses. The exact amount will probably be $350 each, Tuere were thirty guaranters, so that wouid make the ioss amount to about $10,500. ————— Measuring Seal Grounds.
