Then came a few bad decisions by Graves, and the Stockton team, losing | control of itself, rushed out on the field, | and for a time made things unpleasant | for the unhappy umpire. Graves might | have done better. A general hope is ex- | pressed that he will improve. The stand- | ing of the teams is as follows: CLUBS. +a3wud0 | Sacramento 607 | Stockton 517 Oakland 464 | San Francisco 413 The tail-enders and the champions will cross bats to-day. Whenever Sacramento and San Francisco meet the fanatics are happy, for it is a strange coincidence | that San Francisco plays its best ball when »posed to Sacramento. Doyle is harder nut to crack for Mandger Har- ' men than the great Hughes himself. Doyle will do the twirling to-day and Hughes will go up against the local nine | Sunday afternoon. Iburg will pitch for | San Francisco this afternoon and to-mor- | row afternoon, the fireman doing the twirling in the morning game on the Oakland grounds.

The specialty clubs of the Pacific Coast have learned the lesson that unity is strength, and at the meeting held on Mon- day last a proposition was mooted by the | delegate of the Pacific Mastiff Club that | appeared to find favor with the delegates | of the other clubs represented at the meet- ing. The proposition was the formation of | an association of the clubs for the purpose of securing united action toward the dif- ferent bench shows of the coast. The Pacific Bull Terrier Club, the Pacific Fox Terrier Club, the Pacific Mastiff Club and the 8t. Bernard Club of California have, through their delegateg, already given | their support to the proposal, and it is hoped the California Collie Club will also fall into liney The association will natur- { ally be a stfong one. The choice of the | | delegates . for Eresldent was unanimously in fayor of J. B. Martin, who has done so ! mucR® in furthering the unity of the clubs. | All that remains to be settled to make | the-association an accomplished fact is the proportion of the contribution from cach club to defray the small running ex- penses of the association. Richard Roun- tree will probably be elected secretary. E. M. Simpson, the delegate of the bench show committee of the Sacramento State | Fair Adsociation, returned from his tri to San Jose well pleased with the pro: ises of support that he received there from the fanciers. The members of the Collie Club of California gave him a hearty re- ception, and wili probably put into the Jidging ring as large a contingent as has ever been exhibited in California. The feel- ing of dissatisfaction with the American Kennel Club has died out _completely among the members of the Collie Club, who have been the mainstay and back- bone of the Pacific Kennel League. It is Probable that with the defection of this mportant and enthusiastic club the last show under the rules of the league has been held in California.

Nothing in cycling hereabouts has cre- ated so much interest for a long time past as the proposed cycle path from this city to San Ma- teo. The movement is being heartily | encouraged by the riders, dealers and clubs and cannot fail of success. The committee on organization met Wednes- day at the office of E. B. Leaming, vice president of the .California Associated Cyclists, who with T. G. Spillane and Jo- seph Holle composed the committee. They formulated a constitution and by-laws, recommending the name to be San Fran- cisco Cycle Path Assoclation. The execu- tive commlittee suggested {s composed of Frank H. Kerrigan, Charles Aibert Adams, W, J. Kenny, Clarence N. Rav- lin, R. M. Welch, G. Scovern, William ‘M:\L‘klfl. J. W. Leavitt and H. W. Spald- ng. I'hese nomination, together with the constitution and by-laws, will be submit- ted to the meeting of delegates to be held next Tuesday evening in tnerooms of the Cycle Board of Trade, Parrott building, for approval. Regarding the proposed offlcers of the association, many prominent cyelers will urge E. B. Leaming to accept the presi- although he in his modesty himself off the executive committee. Mr, Leaming is eminently fitted for the posi- tion, and if he can be prevailed upon to accept it _the association will be well pleased. Robert M. Welch is willing to re-enter the cycling arena as treasurer of the path fund, and this announcement will be hailed with giadness by the old | guard. The cycle path fever has struck San | Jose, and the wheelmen there now pro- pose’ to build one north to S8an Mateo to connect with the proposed path from here, The Garden City Wheelmen have appoint- ed a committee chnflqhn%nf J._B. Lam- kin, W. H. Krause and H. J. Martin to look into the matter and report at the next meeting. The next cycling event of importance will be the 25-mile handicap to be held on the horse track at San Jose Sunday. July 1, between teams from the Olympic and City Wheelmen of fifteen each, The Garden City team will be composed of McDonald, Barnes, Lowe, J. E. Wing, D. E. Franeis, B. Downing. Letcher. L. A. Smith, E._B. Wastie, M. E. Franecis, G. Downing, B. Bates, W. Smith, C. Allen and V. Francis. The Olympic Club Wheelmen's team will be made up from among the following riders: L. H. Smith, E. O.

They will start in the California Futurity, to be run in September. Mr. Thompson’s most promising candidate f honors in this rich stake is Pink of Fash. | ion. At present he is retired, owing to an | encounter with barbed wire fencing. Flora McDonald and Little Fullerton are also out of the running on the same account. Captain Cane won the open stake at Ingleside and the reserve stake at Union Park last Sunday, the former with Miss Penman and the latter with Greenhall The captain has been particularly fortu- nate in his short career on the coursing field, as he has a small kennel.

The Californias scored a creditable vic- tory over the Alameda cricketers last Sunday, but there was a considerable element of luck in the match. Four of the best Alameda batsmen were dismissed for nine runs and the best work on the California_team was done by J. Guild (42 runs), A. D. Reynolds (4 runs) and W, H. Howard, who captured five wickets. ‘The last two added greatly to the strength of the winning team. To-morrow the Californias will meet the Pacifics. As the Alamedas on the 1ith inst. beat the Pacific eleven by 44 runs for a loss of only eight wickets and the Call- fornias beat the Alamedas by 110 runs, match are often upset. The California team will be chosen from: Arthur Dicken- son (captain), E. G. Sloman, A. D. Rey- nolds, J. Guild, W. Reeves, H. Roberts, L. Schroeder. G. Schroeder, A. S. Willis, W. Reed, E. J.
