THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1898. 10 Tt ti vttt anth 1 THREE GREAT :! 1 DAYS WITH 3 3 ROD AND RIFLE. + Ta4444e 4444444444 Sportsmen who intend having a deer shoot in Marin County ‘should not walt upon the order of going, as the season when deer can be lawfully killed will end on the 15th inst. This is in accordance with an ordinance passed by the Super- visors of Marin last year. The State law glves deer hunters until October 15 in which to bag male deer. As there are many of the wholesale houses which closed thelir doors yesterday, not to open them again until Monday, the boys who love the gun and dog will eertainly make the best use of the holi- 1ys to enjoy favorite pastimes.

Of the many outdoor pastimes patron- ized by local sportsmen there are none, excepting horse racing, which has :aken such a firm hold on the lovers of good sport as coursing, and It go»s without saying that as long as the sport of the s conducted in an upright and straightforward manner it wil -ontinue to increase its patronage and flourish in this great land of the West Yesterday inaugurated turce dn great coursing in the Union and Ingleside parks.

For the past five years Field Sports a weekly periodical, cond d and managed by H. T. who is a well-known authority on mat- that pertain to field and kennel. cause of the fact that the daily pa- pers are now giving much attention to Payne, current sporting - évents, the present owner of Field Sports, Thomas Flynn, wisely concluded that a monthly journal, with handsome illustrations of local hap- penings in the field of sport and instrue- tive articles from the pens of able writers, would fill, so to speak, a long-felt want. ‘The first number, which contains several beautiful illustrations, should be seen to be appreciated. The angling scenes are particularly good. Leashmen will certainly feel at home when they gaze upon thie plctures descriptive of the coursing sward. On the whole, Field Sports, as a monthly journal of sport, has a very promising future. The old idea about ‘“‘the boy with the beanpole” beating the city man with his fancy fly rod at catching fish is pretty nearly exploded. It is quite true that there are many country lads who can catch fish readily with the most ordinary kind of tackle, simply because they know the stream where the trout lurk, and are flshermen and sportsmen by na- ture. But there is no doubt that those same country boys, given fine tackle and @ knowledge of how to use it, would dou- ble, treble and even quadruple their own record bags made previously with the his- toric beanpole. It doesn’t follow, either, that the city man, simply because he has a flne article of a rod, the best of flies and the finest of leaders, {s anything of a fisherman. He may be skiliful in wield- ing his rod and may cast his line with all the dexterity and skill in the world, but unless he is a natural-born filsherman— one in whom the flshing instinct was strong from the time he quit swaddling clothes, he'll never amount to much as a catcher of fish. That class of men the country boy with his beanpole can dis- count. The following letter from Stanford Uni- versity to The Call will Interest anglers and pisciculturists: STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Sept. 9—Dr. Jordan was interviewed to-day concerning the big salmon that was re- cently caught in the Sacramento River with its adipose flns removed, which was reported to have exploded the ac- cepted theory that it takes Pacific Coast salmon from three to flve years to_develop. He sald that he felt sure that the twenty-four-pound salmon just caught ‘was not hatched in the Columbia River, and that it was not one of the fish from ‘which the adipose fins were removed in the spring of 1897 at ‘the United States Fish Commission hatchery, Clackamas, for the purpose of identification. He remarked that the fish just taken was at least four years of age and perhaps five. The fact that the adipose fins were missing he considers of little im- portance. Other hatcheries have. used the same means of identification, notably the Rogue River hatchery. The adipose fins are also often snapped off by other fishes. | The theory of the growth of Pacific Coast salmon, he said, is neither his nor Dr. Gilbert’s, but is common knowl- edge to those who have observed the salmon. The best observations, he remarked, were those made in 1880, which tended to show that the king salmon got its growth at about four years, when it reached an average weight of sixteen pounds in the SBacramento and twenty- two in the Columbia River. As sal- mon die after spawning he says, that the big specimens weighing eighty and a hundred pounds that are occasionally caught are fish that have escaped death and come up the river and are older than their brothers. Eleven Engine’s New House. The dormitory over engine-house 11 has been completed, and now the South San Francisco fire boys have facilities and conveniences that will compare withthose of any other company in the city.

R R R R R L L Y 3 MOSQUITO FLEET 1 WILL RACE OFF EL CAMPO. + . + R T T P P PP The hop set down for last Saturday on the programme of the San Franciscos was deferred until’ later in the month, and a cruise to Petaluma Drawbridge sub- stituted. Vice-Commodore G. T. 8. ‘White's sloop Will o’ the Wisp, Arthur D. Naylor's sloop Twilight and C. Chit- tenden’s yawl Phyllis salled up to the drawbridge; next day they came down to McNears Landing, and returned on Mon- day to Sausallto. Commodore Dr. T. L. Hill contented himself with a Sunday sall to Paradise Cove; on board his sloop Cygnus were Mr. and Mrs. stroth, Mrs, T. L. Hill, C. thur Inkersley. None of the boats of the San Francisco fleet having entered the Pacific Interclub Yacht Association's regatta yesterday, the scheduled cruise to Napa was made. The following yachts were expected to take part: Commodore Dr. T. L. Hill's sloop Cygnus, A. D. Naylor's sloop Twilight, A. Sutherland’s sloop Catherine, J. R. Savory’s sloop Juanita, and the yawi Phyllis, chartered by Dot and ~ the Follansbee brothers. The plan was to reach Napa City last night, sail or tow back to Vallejo to-day and return to- morrow to view the Corinthian small yacht refi_nlta at El Campo. Vice-Commo- dore G. T. 8. White, who rarely misses a club event, being unable to join the cruise to Napa, gave the regatta committee of the association the use of his sloop Will 3' the Wisp as leeward stakeboat yester- ay. Last Saturday the folluwlng yachts crulsed to Vallejo: Vice-Commo- dore A. Thorne's yawl Seven Bells, J. M. Mattoon’s Amigo, ex-Commodore J. W. Pew's Truant, Commodore Carl Wester- ¥, + . + ¥ + + “+ J. A. Lang- Hill and Ar- Corinthian feld’s Aeolus and the sloop Emma. On Sunday they were joined by A. J. Young's sloop Clara. The sloops Truant and Emma salled to the mouth Creek on Sunday. The sloops Pride and Elia cruised to McNears, where the schooner Chls{a and the yawl Frolic, of the San Franciscos, also lay at anchor. W. G. Morrow, financial secretary of the 8an Franciscos, returned to the city some days ago after an absence of several weeks. Last Sunday evening the only boats lying at anchor in front of the San Francisco clubhouse were the schooner Ramona, the sloops Cygnus, Scout and Catherine, the cutter Folly and the launch Alberta. ‘The rest of the fleet were out on extended cruises. Allen M. Clay, who has rendered so many services to the vachtsmen of San Francisco Bay, has lately put up a pair of davits' at the California clubhouse. A good list of entrles is expected for the Corinthian small yacht regatta off ..i Campo to-morrow. Any vacht not ex- ceeding twenty-four feet “on the load- water line may enter, canoes or White- halls not being eligible. Yachts should be sailed to Paradise Cove in the forenoon, and thelr captains should report on board the flagship Aeolus not later than 11:30 a. m. There will be one-gun starts and no time allowance. The course will be fixed by the committee, and the racin, rules of the Corinthian Yacht Club wi control. Cups will be given as first prizes, and flags as second prizes, in each class. Violin Recital. Little Kathleen Parlow, the talented seven-year-old violin virtuoso, will give a recital In Sherman .- Hall Tuesday evening. She will be assisted by the Press Club Quartet—Frank Coffin and R. F. Tilton, tenors; W. J. Batchelder and Charles Parent Jr., basses.

An immense forked horn named by the residents of Point Reyes Old Tocaloma has been an annoyance to hunt- ers this season. The deer in question has been shot at frequently, but the fortunate hunter has yet to be named who will bag the muchly prized beauty. - 0Old Toc has maimed several dogs this year, and last Sunday he disemhoweled a grand hound named Music, the property of Mr. Carrigan of Dunham, Carrigan & Hayden Co. Music was in charge of the well-known deer-slayer, Al Newman, who wagered that with this well-trained dog he would terminate the happy browsing days of the Marin County monarch. But Toc charged the dog before the hunters had an opportunity of drawing a bead on the game, and escaped, leaving the hound all but dead. Newman, Malloy, Dietz, Taylor and three other prom- inent sportsmen will endeavor to bag his highness to-morrow, and if they happen to be successtul the town of Toca- loma will be painted red. world will be at stake. Tracey can do 137 pounds- with ease, and for years has longed for the opportunity the Natlonal Club gave him of meeting the “‘Saginaw Kid.”" The date of the contest will be some time the latter part of October. Lavigne fights Erne on the 13th inst. The Western Athletic Cldb, which is managed by Charles Lang and Martin Murghy will give a fistic show in Wood- ward’s Pavilion on the 20th. The event of the evening will be a twenty-round contést between Jimmy Lawlor and Sam down-town cafe and practice nightly at Central Park. The material this year has never been better and the interest in the game by players on this side of the ba?; never more intense. Captain Pete Smit! has at least ten men of reputation and ability in hand at the present time and some very good raw material to develop if there is a necessity for it. The Olymplc team of this year will see some new as well as some old faces in it.

FIVE-MILE ROAD & RACE AT SAN LEANDRO. R R e R R R R R e Tie only club event of importance to- morrow is the flve-mile handicap road race of the Olympic Club Wheelmen over the San Leandro- Haywards course. There Is a good entry list and as the roads are fine, fast time is expected. Nons of the other clubs have called runs, as the majority of the members went ‘o 8an Jose for the races yesterday and will remain over to-morrow. The following will start in the Olymyic race: E. F. Russ, George P. Fuller, J. E. Wing and E. A. Bozio from scraten; Ed Stanley, H. D. Bean, L. H. Smitk, J. Hammersmith, E. O. Kragness, Frank Cazrroll, George Kroetz, Bert Edwards, ¥d Adams and T. O. Ford, from various handicaps to be announced to-day. The Olympic's race will start at 10:30 a. m. Members will take the 3 o'clock broad gauge ferry. J. E. Wing may make his postponed trial against the ten-mile road record from Fruitvale to Haywards to-morrow if he can get the requisite pacing. The attempt was postponed last Sunday for that Teason. ~After his grilling ride against “Bunt” Smith at San Jose yes- terday, however, he may not be in shape to ao ft. Captain W. L. Loos took a large party of Olympic wheelmen on a run to San Jose yesterday morning to witness the races and cheer Wing on to victory. They left the club house at 7 a. m., riding down on this side of the bay, and most of the party arrived considerably before noon. This was the only called run for San Jose, though a large number of Bay Citys, Imperials, Acmes and other club ;nen went down in parties of three ‘and our.

The list at the Bay City Club house of those who will attend the run is already longer than any number who have gone on one of the club's country outings be- fore, and the captain of the Olymplcs expects to make an equally large show- ing. At destination, the grounds of the Gallegos winery, the riders will be enter- tained by Messrs. Montealegre, Gallegos and Salazar, members of the two clubs, and if the crowd has half as good a time as the Bay Citys enjoyed when down there last year they will be more than well repaid for their tri H. W. SPALDING. . MORE TROUBLE BREWING AMONG KENNEL CLUBS. At the July convention of kennel clubs it was loudly asserted that the coast might just as well ask the A. K. C. to revert to the old classification as to ask for any lesser concession. *“Go the whole hog’ was the cry. Yet the rules commit- tee has considered the minority report of that convention, and has decided to recommend to the A. K. C. the adoption of one of the propositions, and it is probable that dogs will require to score five times in the winners’ class be- fore gaining their championship. The majority report was refused consideration altogether, on the grounds that three of the clubs voting therefor were not mem- bers of the A. K. C., and that one of the delegates was “not in good standing,” and could therefore take no part in the matter pertaining to the A. K. C. 8. stenson, who merits the sympa- thy of all dog lovers by reason of the death of that splendid bull terrier, Wood- cote Venom, is considering the question of acquiring a successor to the deceased prize-winner. Mr. Christenson's choice will undoubtedly - prove worthy of his judgment. B. Bryon of Alameda owns a Great Dane bitch by Victor ex Princess Dagmar that has rare discrimination in ‘the mat- ter of chickens. Queen Olga will only eat black ones, but she will go to great lengths for these. The bitch when only a puppy scored first novice at San Jose and second limit at San Francisco. From present appearances her development is such that she will top the winners’ class at the next show, no matter what the company may be. Charles Weedon and James B.
