The Picnic at Wildwood Glen a Great Suc cess. Fiags of the Free and the Struggling Fold Together in the Same Brecz». The red, white and blue badges worn by the members and svmpathizers of the Cuban patriots who are striving for their liberty in the far-away islands off the coast ot Florida were greatly in evidence in Sausalito yesterday. At intervals from the crowds assembled at Wildwood Glen the cry of ‘“‘Cuba ‘ Libre” would be raised. A. thousand voices would take up the sound, and the wooded canyon echoed and re-echoed with the shouts of the enthusiastic sym- pathizers. Draped from the speaker’s stand over- looking the large dance piatiorm, where | the assembled crowd listened to the words | of praise for the struggling heroes in | Caba, was an American and a Cuban | flaz. The single star of the latter stood out prominently,and the gentle breeze that occasionally rustled the branches of | the trees waved the silken folds of the flag of the struggling Cubans and wound | them in a fond embrace mbout the flag | with its many stars and its thirteea | stripes. It was suggestive of the efforts | that have been made 10 secure the recog- nition of the belligerency of the Cuban | orces in the war-torn islands. During the morning the dance piatform was the scene of festivities. Major Wil- | ham Fahey delivered the address of wel- come. His appearance upon the speaker’s platform was the signal for an outburst of enthusiasm which lasted several minutes. ! Finally when the president could be heard | he said he was pleased at the show of | patriotism which was evident, He said he was proud tbat the Cuban League of San Francisco bad manifested such an interest in the welfare of its friends who were siruggling for freedom thousands of miles awa; The Cuban | League of San Francisco, said_he, ranked nextto the Cuban League of New Yorkin point of numbers, in the spirit of s thy and patriotism, and he was co that every city in the United States would | foliow suit. | At the conclusion of his address Presi- dent Fabey was greeted with applause and again the cry of *‘Cuba Libre’’ burst from a thousand voices. Willie Rodey, the boy orator, has not vet attained nis eighth year, yet yesterday |irom the flag-decorated siaud in Wild- wood Glen he raised his voice for Cuba’s cause and mede the hit of theday. Every word he uttered was listened to with rapt attention and ihe little fellow was fre- quently interrupted by cries of approval and prolonged applause. President J League followed and ihanked the people in behalf of the canse he represented for | their interest in the efforis of the society | to raise funds for the Cuban cause which | they showed by attending the picnic, Secretary Faust E. Mascherini stated that_he hoped the people would stay by | the Cubans through thick and thin, that the society would stand by them until the | war was over and would raise funds to carry on the good work. | Treasurer M. A. Froment Sr. said he was pleased at the sympathy shown the Cuban picnic, and that there wouid be another | one after a time to swell tue funds. The following proclamation was dis- played on the grounds: To the people of Californi Cubs is noc over, and the su The war in suffering of her pa- creasing for lack of medi- s.

The bowling alley was crowded through- | out the day, while the swings and other | share of attention at the hands of the merry-makers. Late in the afternoon President of the Day Fabey was called upon for another | address. Secretary Mascherini followed | andgotber speakers entertained the guests, The dancing was continued, and the tional band furnished excellent music. Vsluable gate prizes were offered, but tne | names of the winners will not be known for a day or two. The utter absence of dis- turbances and the good order maintained throughout the day showed that the friends of Cuba are in earnest. The proceeds from the picnic will be sent to New York, where they will help sweil the tund thatis being raised in a good cause—to secure the independence of Cuba.

A SLAUGHTER AT ALAMEDA JUNCTION Clay Pigeons Mangled and Wounded in the Big Tournament. The Gale, However, Gave Some of the Lifeles Discs Chances to Escape. Los Angeles and Stockton Triel for Team Honors and Will Ssttle Their D ff:rences To-Day. Enough powder and lead were shot away at Alameda Junction yesterday to stock a good sized Government magazine. It was the opening day of the California Inanimate Target Association’s fourth an- | nual tournament, and to say it was one of the greatest gatherings of the snotgun devotees ever held in California would be but to draw it too mildiy. It was a tri- | umph and the indications are that to- | aay’s continuation of the contests will find no falling off either in attendance or enthusiasm. The crack men of thirteen different gun clubs located in every im- portant part of the State were there to compete, and in addition to these there | were innumerable experts on hand to take | part in the individual contests, of which there were six. Climatically the day was not an ideal one for good shooting. The morning opened up balmy enough, but a high wind which eventually developed into a veri- table gale put in an early appearance to render eccurate firing at the clay pigeons | extremely difficult. The blow wouid cause the discs to ricochet and dive and twist through the air in a mos: tanta- lizing manner, and this more than any- thing else accounts for the raiher low scores and the disappointment the cham- pions inflicted upon their admirers. But | it was great sport nevertheless, and ex- | citing, too. The event around which most interest | centered was undoubtediy the contest be- tween picked teams from the various clubs represented on the ground. This | was for tne Overland Monthly trophy and | & series of cash prizes. The Los Angeles and Stockton teams were found tied for first and second places at the finish and will have their shoot-off to-day. The Re- liance Club s No, 1 team got third honors, the Olympic No. 1 fourth, Fresno fifch, Olympic No. 2sixth, Empire of Oakland seventh, Lincoln eighth, Amador ninth, Garden City tenth, Reliance No. 2 elev- enth, Aniloch iwelf:h and Golden Gate 1 Tue team scores were as follows, 4 member being allowed twenty birds Lincoln Gun Club—Daniels 13, Robertson 16, Bravo 14, Karney 15, E.

The competition for the Allen cup was pretty throu -hout and quite exciting at tte finish. Mason, the Los Angeles crack, 2ad Billington, the pride of the Empires, vere tiea for top houors, and went out to shoot twenty more birds to decide the juestion of supremacy. Once more they broke even, each knocking down fifteen of the spinning aisks. Then they got at it again, and this time the Qakland wizard lost bis nerve. Mason won the trophy by a core of 17 to 13. The contest jor the handsome Gold Dust diamond medal also resuited in a tie, the rival claimants being Ralphs and C. Mer- ril. These gentlemen did not make ii a fight ‘to a finish, however, preferring to seitle their differences to-day, As to the individual contests for money prizes the following scores tell the story of the day and also give an idea regarding | the number of shotgun enthusiasts who faced the traps: NAMES.

SAFE N PORT AGIN, The Long Overdue Matterhorn Arrives From Hong- kong. Fifteen Per Cent Reinsurance Had Been Paid by Her Owners in London. The British ship Matterhorn, out 114 days from Hongkong, came in yesterday. Fifteen per cent reinsurance was paid on her 1n London about two weeks ago. Her long voyage was due to the fact that she came by way of Australia instead of through the China sea. One death by smallpox was reported on the way over, and she was accordingly taken to Angel Island 1o be quarantined.
