James Dean has purchased from D. J. Healey the celebrated Sisquoc and has | started the fast hound in training, with the expectation of having him fit in time to enter the big stake at San Mateo Park a week from to-morrow. Billy Thompson has added to his string | Mountain Chief, a promising youngster by Prince Charlie cut of Princess Fuller- ton. The new one arrived last week from tlf;e Lowe & Thompson kennels of Kansas City. Young America, after a long retirement to the stud, is back to the coursing fold and is entered In to-day’'s stake. The O'Sheas look to him to reach well down on the card in many future events. A. Massey's Hot Stuff has been bred to T. Mooney’s Pride. Joe Watkins, a former coursing man of | this city, Is in Seattle, making a strong effort to introduce the game to the people| of that section. When Watkins left for the north some months ago he left his string of dogs in charge of his trainers. On several occasions the hounds which were entered in Watkins' name acted badiy and were suspected of being doped, though nothing could be proved against them. Finally Merclless, one of the string, | was brought on the xl]#ld at Ingleside in a condition which plainly showed that the dog had been overloaded with dope. The “prep” had such effect on the animal that ndlers were afraid to touch him. sociation made an investigation. which resulted in the ruling off of one of the trainers and of the entire Watkins entries Now Watkins, through his local agent, Pat Canavan, is buying up greyhounds at the rate of $5 per head. At last accounts | enough dogs have been secured to war- rant the chartering of an entire train to transport them to the Sound city. The dogs of the Russell, Allen & Wilson | kennel, which have been quartered at the old grounds at Ingleside, went through a :}mr!urmflm‘c a few days ago that has prought sorrow to the owners and train- ers and has upset many caiculations for future events. When the association {moved to San Mateo and took its belong- | ings a round-up of hares was made, and it was thought that tne field had been | cleared of the jacks. Fourteen dogs of | the Russell, Allen & Wilson string, many of which are Futurity candidates, were urned loose in the inclosure for a limber- ng-up spin. The hounds had not been out but a few minutes when a stray hare | was started and the pack gave chase. In no time jack after jack appeared, un- | til at least forty were in motion, with | young and old dogs all over the field after them. Before the trainers could get con- trol the hounds, especially the youngsters, bhad run themselves to pieces.

From this region the reports of superfine fishing strike this city | day after day. Before the season closes | it will be a difficult matter to find an an- gler of any reputation who has not cast | his lot upon these waters. | H. E. Skinner, John Butler and W. T.| Willlams are at Boca, and their quantum | of luck is of the kind that connotes great | sport. The brown hackle, yellow body | fly seems to be the particular allurement | for the Truckee River trout at present. Sam Heller has returned from Boca and | reports great sport. 1 F. W. Rogers and C. Berriman have re- | turned from Tallac. Trolling was their | specialty, and it resulted in baskets of fine big trout. Adolph and Robert A. Roos have made | some good catches at Tahoe during tne last few days. George Walker, C. B. Hollywood, J. A. | Parison, O. W. Jackson. J. ‘Bliss, C. K. Kenniff and J. B. Kenniff tried bass fish- ing last Sunday in the San Antonio Creek, | running through the Mira Monte pre- serves. They began late, when the tide was too high, and all they took from the waters were twelve bass of varying size. The fishing on Lake San Andreas is fair, red fly and_shrimp”bringing ¢he best re- uits. 8. Sangsle‘; unds(rfléu took out) thirty-two in a single day. Two bass from two to three pounds aplece were in the mess. J. Grny, fe George Thackeray and J. S. Benn, wife and daughter tried San An- dreas about the same time with good luck. The sea fishers are enjoying themselves | to their hearts’ content at Monterey. The | salmon have been running very strong there, better on the Monterey side than the Santa Cruz. Despite the ocecasional reports of good fishing at Catalina, this season has not | been rrollflc of big tuna catches. At great intervals a large tuna is landed, but the fishermen who follow the sport are not satisfied with present conditions. i Bass fishing on the Russian River near Guerneville is good at present. Live min- nows and bucktail fly usually bring the bass to the hook. sl S AT e R With Brassie and Putter. Play Is going on in the men's and wo- men’s serfes of three matches over eigh- teen boles on the links of the San Rafael Golf Club. The matches must be con-| cluded by the 15th of this month.

To Californlans a bench show without Dave Sinclair would seem abnormal. | Dave has been selected to act as clerk of | the forthcoming show at Sacramento, and intending exhibitors will consequently feel assured that everything connected with the management will be properly per- formed. E. M. Stmpson, the secretary, expects to have the premium lists issued by the 10th of this month. A large entry is confidently anticipated. H. C. Golcher, who was elected as one of the bench show committee of the Tan-) foran show, will be unable to serve, and Richard Rountree, the secretary of the Pacific Bull Terrier Club. has been elected in his stead. It is probable that Judge N. Post of Sacramento. who is well known in connection with fleld trials, will judge the field trial competitions at Tanforan The conditions of entry for these compe- titions are far from onerous and a large entry should result Charles, K. Harley has purchased the noted fox hound, Queen, from George Hixon. The Pacific_Bull Terrier Club offers for 'competition by members only. both at Sacramento and Tanforan, four elegant silver cups, and the Pacific Fox Terrier Club offers at both shows for competition by members only a silver cup for the best dog over twelve months of age and a silver cup for the best bitch over twelve months of age. In addition to these the club offers a silver cup each for the best dog puppy and for the best bitch puppy. N e Swimming at Sutro’s.

The deer hunters are in the midst of their seasonal sport and reports from the | netghboring countles in which the game laws allow free hunting bespeak a fair measure of good luck and success. This is the walking season for the bucks, and they are coming out within range and ac- cess of the hunters. Some fine sport fell to the Country Club members who left this city last Saturds and Sunday he Marin County pre serves. A party conmsisting of Andrew Jackson, Wiiliam Berg, Willlam Kitt Alec Hamilton, Peter Martin, F. W Sicklen and William Gerstle, a gue: the club, scoured the hills last Sur t into the ci house. The lucky ones were Jackson, Hamilton, Berg, Kittle, Gerstle and Van Sicklen. Peter Martin did not get a deer, but he came close to it. Two of his friends stuck an_antler-mounted head in the br | and by soft phrase goaded Martin into genuine bueck fever. He blazed away a it with grim_determination to bring down | his game. After the fifth shot the head tumbled to the ground. When Martin | covered consciousness. he discovered thar | what he imagined was a bullet decapitie tion was nothing more tha cruel joke perpetrated by his most sportsmanilike friends. Robert Oxnard with a party and C. F. | Mullin with a party have been on the pr: serves of the Country Club during the week, and report fair luck. Last Sunday was rather a bad day for the hunters of the Mira Monte Chub. A heavy fog settled over the ranges, making it impossible to get at the deer. During | the week several of the members tried their luck, but no deer as yet have been Van ot | and six bucks were broug! sent to the city to show for their efforts. W. R. Chambers and C. Le Gal return: week from Calpella Mendocine v were members of a party sther three of which are H. . R. Sangster and W. F. Smith. In less than two weeks they killed seven deer, all of large size. Whitley, San and Smith are on the Big River yet, ing for more deer. The best reports for open deer hunting come from this part of the country, Men- docino and Humbeldt counties. General Dickinson, H., B. Hosmer and Colonel Miles have returned from Laytonville, where they have been hunting for about two weeks. Hflfmerdzrl one large buck, Colonel Miles one and General Dickinson two. Messrs. Jessop and Earhart killed three bucks at Lierly’s during the weale
