Archie Reid FIVE-POUND TROUT FOR A FLYCASTER George Crocker Lands One of the Largest Fish of the Season. George Crocker has the honor of catch- ing one of the largest trout landed on the Truckee this season. While fishing near Mystic station with a party of friends last Saturday he caught a trout weighing just under five pounds. He used a No. 10 July dun fly, a remarkable small one for so large a fish. In Mr. Crocker’s party were W. C, Murdoch, J. M. Quay and Ho- mer King and son. Many of the representative fishermen of the metropolitan district spent Saturday and Sunday on the Truckee near Boca and report splendid catches. Among oth- ers were W. D. Mansfleld, A. T.

Collle Club officials intend to hold a general dog show In Oakland about the middle of next December. Norman J. Stewart of Aromas will officiate as sec- retary and David J. Sinclair will act as clerk. The show will be in connection with the Oakland poultry exhibition and will be hcld under the rules of the Pacific Kennel League. Several prominent breed- ers have promised to show their dogs. Among them the Verona IKennels will exhibit the collies Old Hall Admiral_and Heather Mint; the Redwood cocker ken- nels will show’ their whole team of cham- pion spaniels and the Montez kennels’ im- porte tiff puppy Dagonet Montez will make his debut on the bench. Clogely. following the Oakland show, the Specialty Club’s show will be held in this city. The Pacific Fox-terrier Club, Pacific Mastiff Club, Pacific Bull-terrier Club and St. Bernard Club of California will hold a joint specialty show. It is prob- able that for this show an Eastern fudge will be imported, although there Is no lack of experts on the coast. In fact, the Collle Club has decided to rely on local talent exclusively to judge at Oaklana, and that noted breeder of fox-terriers, J. B. Martin, has already been invited to award the ribbons in the fox-terrier class. For the specialty show a number of in- tendinrg competitors favor recal]lnF H. Lacey of Boston, while the predilection of others is for Raper. The show will be hel]d under the American Kennel Club rules, The Verona kennels are retiring from collies and are disposing of their stock. The only ones to be retained are champion S8t. Clare Laddie, Mrs. Phebe Hearst's personal pet; champion Old Hall Admiral and champion Heather Mint. H. T. Payne has purchased the red cocker spaniel dog Hamilton Jack, which took second prize at Toronto. Henry H. Carlton has arranged to breed his mastiff Hebe Montez to California Cube. Mr. Carlton s negotiating for the purchase of a Boston terrier to succeed the late Oakside Bessie. His difficulty lies in the fact that Bessle was the best of her type, and none of the Eastern ken- nels have yet offered a fitting successor. A. Bryan’'s great dane Green Olga will be mated with J.

The gun clubs having duck preserves in this district are already placing them in order for the rapidly approaching sea- son. Arks, blinds and decoys are being overhauled and made ready for active service on the first of October. The mem- bers of the Black Jack Club have fnstalled a new ark at Sherman Island, and have secured a launch to convey them from Antioch to their preserve at Sherman Isl- and. The officers of the club for this year are: John Lemmer, president; John Bergez, vice-president; John Sammi, sec- retary and treasurer; directors—Lemme, Sammi, F. Jackson, B. Wyman and W. C. Swain. The season should be a good one throughout the State, as ducks are al- ready plentiful and more are making their appearance every day. The Stpervisors of San Mateo County intend to shorten the season in which quafl may be killed: From November 1 to December 1 will be the only period sanctioned by law for the killing of quail. The game birds were being wiped out, and the present legislation is intended tc protect them and allow them to multi- ply. The members of the Olympiec Gun Club ‘will hold their postponed “Varmint” hunt on their duck and quail preserve, Cor- delia, to-morrow. The members will go to Cordelia to-night and will be ready for the fray early to-morrow morning. Only those animals that injure the preserves will be destroyed. It {s expected a large number of members will avail themselves of the opportunity to see the preserves, thus obtaining an’ idea of the pleasure in g;%r:s for them when the duck season C.

The annual convention of the Pacific ociation of the Amateur Athletic Union will be held on the 18th inst. in the parlors of the Olympic Club. At a meet- ing held April 14 of this year the board of managers approved an amendment to the constitution, whereby the association assumes control throughout the area of its jurisdiction over rowing, indoor base- ball, basket ball, and sixteen other classes _— of indoor and outdoor sports. This amend- ment will be presented to the convention for final adoption, and will almost cer- tainly be carried. The foundation of the Pacific Coast Rowing Association, with headquarters at Astoria, will not affect the status or control of rowing affairs in and about San Francisco. The Alameda Boating Club held a meet- ing last Tuesday. W. B. Hinchman, H. W. Maass and S. J. Pembroke were elect- ed delegates to the Pacific Association, and they were instructed to vote for the first-named as a member of the board of managers. After the meeting there was a smoker to entertain the members of the club who recently returned from the Phil- Tl\ln#s and also from the Astoria regatta. regatta committee, composed of W. B. Hinchman, chairman; 8. Pembroke, Captain V. G. Hansen, Lieutenant J. Lewis and Sydney Pollard, was appointed to take charge of ladies’ day, to be held shortly. The sum of $150 was transferred from the general fund to the boat fund, the club being in need of racing skiffs and some good pleasure boats. According to the present rule an outrigged skiff may not exceed 21 feet 6 inches in length, | or have less than 22 Inches beam. | As it is not unlikely that some changes may be made in the dimensions, allowing greater length and narrowness, the row- ng clubs will be chary of expending money in new skiffs, which may rapidly F.

McArthur were chosen delegates to the Pacific Association of the Amateur Athletic Union. Walter Demartini and C. E. Cashman were elected members of the club. The South End Club is in a prosperous condition, and has ten names on its waiting list. It has found the strain of constructing the handball court and having a new barge built heavy, but it finds the court a great attraction to men disposed to join the club. On_ the second Sunday in October the handball court will be formally opened and a regatta given. The only barge crew at present regularly | organized for the champlonship regatta is made up of Dr. C. C. Dennis, J. Foley, Al Hampton and C. Skelly. It 'is out for practice nearly every night. M. J. Breen and J. Lyons will represent the South Ends In the junior outrigged skiff race, while J. Foley will pull in a shell against A. W. Pape. The Ariels will make up a_barge crew with Robert Ellls, Willlam Howe, James ‘Wilson and a fourth man for his cham- plonship regatta. The Dolphin Boating Club will be well represented in the champlonship regatta next month. Dr. F. R. Axton and Lester Hammersmith will ‘enter the_ junior out- rigged skiff race, and A. W. Pape, W. O. Patch and George Baker will pull in the senior outrigge. skiff race. A. W. Pape and T. R. Keenan will enter the single shell race. An intermediate barge crew has been made up of W. Bush, bow; F. R. Axton, No. 2; C. M. Farrell, No. 3; and George Baker, stroke. The following four new members were elected at the last meeting and will go into training as a junior barge crew—N. Neustadter, bow: .
