The San Francisco Kennel Club has not recelved many replies as yet to the invi- tation to a conference, sent out to the different kennel and speclalty clubs of the coast. The St. Bernard Club of Cali- fornia has refused the Invitation, stating | that its members are quite satisfled with | the rules on classification as last amendeq by the American Kennel Club. ! The meeting of the Paclfic Mastift Cluy is scheduled for next Thursday night, | and the report of the committee on rules, if adopted, will Instruct the delegate or | that club to propose to the convention the | following alternative set of rules First, puppy class, as at present; sec- | ond, novice class, optional with club hol ing ‘show; third, open class, open to all doge; fourth, junfor class, open to dogs | not liaving won four first prizes, wins in puppy and novice classes excepted; fifth, genlor class, open to dogs having won four | or more first prizes in open or junior three wins in senfor class to en- champlonship; sixth, champlon 0 class. These rules have been indorsed by dele- ates of other clubs, to whom they have peen submitted. It is claimed that they | have the merit of providing competition | by means of the class open to all dogs, and vet, that they prevent the cheapening of champlonships, so much deprecated by fanclers. The report of the Pacific Mastiff Club's | committee on rules embodics a recommen dation that no win In the senlor class should count toward a championship, un lees there has been competition in the cla rge Bell, the judge of the recent Sa Francisco Bench Show, will be s as a_witness by the board of di the Kennel Club to gi matter of Mr. Samuel’ case of the bull-terrior, Scaldy Mike. It is claimed by competent judges that Mr. Bell's disqualification of the euphoniousiy named bone of contention was not sound- Iy based. An examination of the standard of the bull-terrier club discloses no clause authorizing the disqualification of a dog on acount of a black spot. A. Bennett, who s taking Emmet Sulli- van's setters across the continent to com- pete In the Kastern field trials, reports that his proteges are doing well.

The recent aceident to two Oakland | riders, Mortimer McGowan and Gainford | Hughes, in the Santa Cruz Mountal | when they were both badly bruised an | their wheels demolished by attempting to | ride a dangerous hill, brings vividly to attention the good work the California | Associated Cycling Clubs are doing in | this direction. In all parts of the State where the association officials are aware | | there are dangerous inclines sign boards | are put up, notifying cyclers of the dan- | | ger. This work cannot all be done in a | | day, and it takes money to carry it on, | and’ the hill upon which the Oakland | riders met with an accident has not yet been marked with a sign board. The | moral is that every touring wheelman should be possessed of a road book telling | of dangerous grades and curves, and | should also help the work being done by | joining the assoclation and contributing | his mite to the fund. One dollar a year | 1s surely cheap insurance for a rider who | travels much, and the two Oaklanders would gladly have given ten times that amount apiece to have been in a posi- | tlon to avert the accldent which befell | them, spofling their outing.

M. J. Geary, sporting editor of The Call, and & recog- nized authority on angling, has been at Boca for a fortnight. He writes enter- tainingly of the trout fishing, saying: Trout fishing on the Truckee River is better now than it has been for some ars past. Anglers who Intend visiting this vicinity, how- ever, must not think that with the mere cast- ing ‘of a hook in the stream it wiil return with scales. Trout, although very plentiful in this stream, are not to be fooled by every Tom, Dick and Harry who may wet a line with the intention “of fes. creeling sole in the so-called “speckled bea Trout—I refer to fish of from ten inches up to eight pounds In welght— have, in the language of the turfite, -‘horse sense,” and will not be fooled as easily as many anglers imagine. Still an expert—a man who has had practical experfence and who understands how to present a fly properly to the king of the mountain streams—can always rely on good sport in the Truckee River. There are times when trout fishing is comparatively 00d and bad, and that meuns either joy or isgust to the emulators of Walton. I am pleased to have the opportunity of stating that the fishing I8 now really good and anglers who are anticipating a trip to this section of the country should not postpone their proposed out- ing. The river is extremely low this year be- cause of the scarcity of snow on the moun tains, consequently fly fishing at certain times of the day is fi ss. When the sky is over- cast the sport is good from morning until night, but on bright days the best angling hours are from 2 to 5 o'clock and from 7 until 8:30 p. m. The largest fish are caugnt from sundown until after dark. The fiies that are dolng the best work are the Royal Governor, hman, Grizzly King, March Brown and sor.” My catch of four days consisted of o pounds, or an average of thirt ds per day, of trout ranging from twe firt pou. inches up to three pounds in weight.

Al Cumming, one of the best known and most thorough sportsmen on the coast, just returned from his annual vaca- tion,"and is loud in his praise of the grand fishing to be had at Webber Lake and the streams within ten miles of that resort. Our party, which consisted of P. J. Tormey, Captain Ge Cumming, Eli Marks, David Sachs and m left here on June 2, said Mr. Cumming yesterday. We made our head- quarters at Webber Lake and had the best sible sport. 1 averaged thirty-five trout a day for three weeks and the general aver- age of all our party was twenty. Our favorite files were the ‘‘Biue Wing,'= “‘Bumble Bee,’* Black Ant,’ arch Brown,” ‘‘Professor’* and “‘Blue Bott With them we used No. 2 and 3 hooks. From Webber I went to Whits Rock Lake with “Jack’” Sammi and A, B. Finch. I killed thirty-three, averaging from % to one and one-quarter pounds. . Finch and George Gage I went to Creek on the old Hennis Pass road, from Webber. My companions fished With Jacksor ten mile up-stream, while I went down the stream. Be- tween thém they ed forty trout of cut-throat variety, while I was more fortu- nate and caught thirty that weighed elghteen pounds, Our next trip was to Fore Dyce, eight miles from Webber by the wagon road. The first seven, averaging a half- ch, while the next day our total catch s 157. I tried the Little Truckee River at the outlet of Webber Lake and secured twenty- four fair fish. The best fishing on the Little Truckee {s over the mountain from. Sage Hen, & small stage station. ’ In Webber Lake are Loch Levin, Bon de Bar, Eastern red-speckled brook trout, lan salmon and cutthroat trout. Two hund fifty of the h Levin trout were the lake two vears since s st _year. They have thrived wond 3 will_pro- vide the greatest possible sport three years hence. When caught now they are invariably turned back by the sportsmen, although re- ports to the contrary have been circulated in this city. They are the most beautifully col- ored fish in the world and the gamest. Some pound-and-a-half fish have been landed only after the most desperate struggles, and what they will do when they attain the weight of four pounds s hard to conjecture.
