With the rapidly approaching: close ot fleld shooting on marsh and upland trap shooters give evidence of awakening from their season of inactivity. already outlining plans for what promises to be the most notable season for tiis pastime in the history of shooting on this coast. The most notable advance in this direction was the incorporation yesterday of the San Francisco Trap Shooting Asso- clation. This association has taken over the Ingleside grounds formerly controlled by the Olympic Gun Club, and will con- duct them on a high plane. The grounds, which advantages than any other grounds in America, will be made still more attract- ive. An underground system of traps will be put in and all the conveniences re- quired by the exacting sportsman will be supplied. In this manner it is expected the majority of the gun clubs in the me- | tropolitan district will be induced to avail of the opportunity offered and de- cide their contests on the Ingleside grounds. The officers of the new association are President, Herbert Kullman; vice prosi- | dent, Dr. 8. E, urer, A. M. Shields; directors, R. I D. Grubb, A. Haight, Achille Roos, Ed- ward Donohue and three more yet be named. The officers of a number of clubs have signified their intention to use the | grounds. All will be accorded the same consideration, no one club being favored above another. The initial bluerock shoot of the vear will be promoted by the Lincoln Gun Club on the grounds at Alameda Point on Washington's Birthday, the 22d inst. Nine events are on the card, with more prom- ised if time will permit. In two of the events amateurs and professionals will be drawn separately, giving each an oppor- tunity of meeting men in their class. Prop- arations are being made for a large at- tendance of shooters. From appearances the closing fortnight of the open season for ducks will provide good sport. The birds which went south when the season opened are returning to their northern haunts. This is the mating season and the birds are not so wild »s they have been, thus affording the gun- men better opportunities to bring them down. An unusual number of these birds, chiefly canvasbacks, are in Richardsons Bay. They have not been there long enough to absorb the fishy taste which makes them unpalatable. A good strong wind, which would drive the ducks from their feeding grounds, would greatly im- prove the shooting. Bert Patrick and Tom Deffenbach killed eighteen canvasbacks in Richardsons Bay last Sunday. Bert Wyman, Lloyd Eaton, Billy Swain and Charley Dietz were aiso on the bay In a launch and secured ‘our- teen birds. not having been on the bay a sufficient length of time to get a fishy flavor. Mr, Patrick and_Fred Johnson will try the shooting at Reeds, In Marin County, to- morro A. W. Wilson, F. G. Sanborn and Frank McLennon secured 'twenty-seven black brant on their last pilgtimage to Tomales Bay. This is the best bag secured on any one trip this season. George Morse, clerk of the United States Circuit Court in this city, recently enjoyed a day’s shooting on Lake Michi- gan with President McKinley. In com- pany " with another gentleman they ' se- ured a jolnt bag of 150 ducks. Mr. Morse married the President's niece. McDonald_brothers secured fifty birds at Mount Eden last Sunday, while the Hightmeir brothers secured fl‘;olnt bag of thirty principally bluebills and cans. Th Pastime Club men are credited with a bag | of 200 ducks to elfm guns. Russell Crowell, at one time closely identified with fishing and shooting or- anizations in this city, is here on a visit. gie iz interested in copper mines in the southern country, but still finds time to indulge in his favorite sports of the field. | "The Empire Club members expect some | good sport this week at their Black Point reserves. A large number of birds have n seen in the vicinity recently. George Franzen killed sixty-three ducks near Alvarado last Sunday. This was the ! largest individual bag. J. H.

At a meeting of the board of governors of the Pacific Association, Amateur Ath- letic Union, last night the proposed in- door athletic tournament was abandoned. | The college men would not compet: im- | mediately before their fleld day nor im- mediately after. This was the only av | able time, hence the meeting was declared off. ——— BENCH SHOW PROSPECTS. The members of San Francisco Kennel Club are already hard at work preparing for the coming spring bench show. It is conceded that the prospects for a record- as they are this year. The purchases of thoroughbred dogs already exceed in | number those of all previous seasons. The rivalry among the different specialty clubs 1s of the keenest character and the special prizes will be both numerous and costly. J. L. Langenderfer has been en- to act as superintendent of the s!!:g::dnnd Dave Sinclair as clerk. Richard H. Rountree has sold his well- known bull terrier dog Tabasco to A. C. Luck of Austin and has replaced Tabasco with an Eastern importation. Mr. Roun- tree has also bought from Tom Collins a six-month-old bull terrier dog puppy, by Admiral, out of Woodcote Baroness. E. 8. Heller, Wwho _lately purchased from fthe Redwood Kennels a cocker spaniei dog puppy, has been compelled to ace the latter in the hands of Dr. Biecrs for treatment. R. M. Palmer of Seattle has bought from T, P. Mallorle of Crozet, Va., a voung Airedale dog puppy named Rus- tic Jerry, by the Engiish champion Broodland Brushwood, out of Rustic Pe; 3 Vsfi{lam Gerstle, who recently bought ‘a Boston terrier dog. has had the misfor- tune to lose him within three days of his arrival. The dog seemed to have taken a chill on the journay out and died of pneumonia James L. Flood has purchased the mas- tiff Myra, by Major, out of Queen Bess 1I, for the purpose of breeding to his mastift_dog Caesar F, by Roderick Dhu, out of Baby Ruth. W. C.

Last year there were six clubs in the league at the outset, but in the middle of the season the cut came and from that time to the end there were but four. San Jose and Watsonville were dropped for financial reasons, the best players of these teams finding places in the four that remained. When the games begin this spring four teams will comprise the league. At pres- ent San Francisco and Oakland are the clubs that have organized and will surely Sacramento and Stockton have the best chances for representation so far. Kripp of the capital city will not manage the club this season, but as there are three or four men anxious to secure the franchise he will have no difficulty in dis- posing_of his interest. On Thursday Harry Harris and Cal Ewing visited Sacramento for the purpose of a conference with the prospective man- agers of the Sacramento nine. They came ¢ satisfied that all would be well with the champlons of last season. The choice of the fourth club lies among Santa Cruz, | Vallejo and Stockton. The Stockton peo- ple are enthusiastic over the prospect of entering the league and will use every effort to place a nine in the field. The only hitch possible depends upon the ques- tion of grounds. At present the manager of the Stockton team is at work with the street rallroad companies of that city in order to induce them to prepare grounds for baseball purposes. This has been promised. If consummated Stockton will e the fourth club of the league. Cal Ewing has organized his nine, but | there may be one or two changes before the season begins. Harris is canvassing the field. After the meeting in this city early in the week all the managers will be | reaching for material and by the first of | | 1 next month the nines will be out for prac- tice. —_————— ON THE TENNIS COURTS. The_crowning event of winter tennis at the California club courts, Scott and Bush streets, will be the class tournament which is scheduled for Washington's birthday. It will be a club affair, with a distinetive social aspect. At a meeting of the board of directors during the week it was decided to have a class tournament, and all contestants will be classified by ‘“Joe” Dally. George Whitney will have entire charge of the tournament. This is an innovation in the working of tournaments as pursued by | the Callfornia club management. Hitherto a tournament committee assumed the di- rectorship of all affairs, but more or less friction resulted. As it is now. Whitney will be solely responsible for the success or failure of the tournament. In order to reintroduce the social ele- ment, luncheon will be served at the courts. Invitations will be sent to the members and a large attendance is ex- pected. The entries will be numerous and As the tournament is a classified one the competition will be keen. Besides classi- fying the players, Dally will fix the ad- vantage hcndicaps between classes. At present the lady players are showing great activity, organizing tournaments and special matches. All the courts were Well patronized during the week. e SWIMMERS AT SUTRO’S. The entries for the swimming contests at Sutro Baths to-morrow are as follows }u\‘!nlle&—l’. Sunberg, O. Owens, V.
