It is seldom the selection of a judge for the bench show arouses as much satisfac- tion as has the appointment of James Mortimer of New York.

There. was only one month of good sport in the vicinity of Alvarado, the remainder of the season be- | ing below the average. The preserves will be well patronized | to-day and to-morrow, although the chances for good sport are slight, owing to weather conditions. Many of the gun men will go to their shooting boxes to put their perishable effects away to await the coming of another season. The directors of Olympic Gun Club threw their preserve Oopen to members all this week, not re- stricting thems to the customary three days’ shooting which prevailed through- out the season. H. L. Miller was high gun last Sunday, bagging twenty-seven ducks. L. H. Harpham secured 20, C. H. Shinkel 10 and 8. P. Brown 9. W. R. Larzalere and J. H.

Colonel Kelthor and Al Wilson returned Tuesday from Russian River, where they spent some days enjoying the fishing. They did fairly well the fitst few days, getting some large steelheads and some striped bass. The water .® + ® - . . Cromomc ANGeL .

Fish were seen to breach, or break the water, repeatedly. Before Sunday’s rain put a stop to the fishing Colonel Kelihor secured an eight- pound steelhead and a nine-pound striped bass. in trolling the fishermen caught three or four black bass, which they returned to the stream, this being the close season. Their presence explodes the theory that these fish hibernate here as they do in Eastern waters, where it is extremely cold Tom Irving reports having seen a school of striped bass near White HOH:‘C-: Pool, in the vicinity of Point Reyes. W. A. Cooper, one of the most regular followers of angling, caught two good- sized striped bass near Point Reyes some days since. Captain G. H. Lampson, superintendent of the United States Hatchery at Band, on the McCloud River, has been conduc ing some interesting experiments latel In company with .Lee Dunning he has been taking trout with the fly from the pool below the hatchery for the purpose of scientific research. The first week after liberating the winter's batch of young salmon every trout killed had some salmon in its stomach. During the second week none of the trout had salmon,.indicating that the jatter had been able to escape when their strength came to them. From present indications the fishing will be good in the McCloud this year. The California State Fish Commission will open its spawning station on Shovel Creek, near Beswick, in Siskiyon County, on March 1. The commission has main- talned a close watch on the fish ladder on the dam at Klamathon. This has en- abled the trout to pass over the dam to the station without molestation. It. is hoped to obtain the old take aof eggs, a million or more, which was customary until the last two years, when the stream was low. The commission will operate at Lake Tahoe, as usual, men going in early in March. The members of the San Francisco Fly- casting Club will meet at Stow Lake, Golden Gate Park, again this afternoon ahd to-morrow morning. The members out last Saturday shcwed great pro- ficiency, having apparently taken judi- cious exercise during the winter months. The Chicago Fly-casting Club will hold a world’s tourhament in August. There {s some talk of sending a team on from here. —_————— ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL. This afternoon the Vampires will play a match against the visiting assoclation football team from Keswick, Shasta County, on the Presidlo Athletic ground. The kick-off will be at 3:15 p. m., and the line-up of the two teams as follows: Positions. Keswicks. .. Goalkeeper Back . Vampires. On Washin, eleven playe team on the, Presidio_athletic ground, J.
