TRAP SHOOTERS REGENE. PRIZES Close of the Inanimate Target Tourna- ment. | Foster, Schultz and Feudner Do the Best Shooting of the Day. { —— Great enthusiasm, an excellent aitend- ance and several remarkable scores marked the closing day of the ninth tour- nament of the California Inanimate Tur- get Association. Many of tne local knights of the gun who were expected *0 carry off the lion's share of the medals and trophies, but whose work on the pre- vious day had been a disappointment, re- trieved thelr reputations. As resuit the San Francisco Gun Club cantured al- most everything of value in sight, The individual champlonship medal awarded by the association was won by E. L. Forster with a percentage of % for the two days' shoot. He was closely pressed by both M. O. Feudner and Ed Schultz, The O smpic Gun Club trophy was cap- tured b . 0. Feudner with a rcore of twenty straight. Besides winning this trophy Feudner accomplished what may be considered the second highest record of the tournament. Out of 100 targets unly three escaped his gun The San Francisco Gun Club trophy, a ump gun, fell to the lot of Dr. A. T. erby, with a clean of birds. % : The contest for the Empire Gun troohy resulted in a tie between C. A, Hartley, Debenbam, E. Feudner ln&. Brunneil, Durst, O, Feudner, Barker, Sears, Fran- zen and Willlamson. In 'the shoot off the trophy was awarded to Ed Feudner with a clean score of twenty birds. For the Gold Dust medal, which must be won three times before it becomes the property of any one man, Durham, Ross, Yorster, Schultz and Burnell gled. 'The shoot off furnished very interesting sport. TUp to the sixteenth target neither Schultz nor Ross was credited with a singlc iuss, but the latter let up on his good work on the seventeenth bird and allowed Schultz to win out with a clean score. The mem- bers of the Ban Francisco Gun Club were very jubflant over Schultz’'s victory in this event, and attested their joy Ly carrying him off the field in their arms. Schultz's victorious gun also had the honor of winning the Garden City Club trophy. Both Dr. Derby and Schuiltz tied for this trophy, but Schultz again won out with a stralght score, which made four straight scores that he had shot in suc- cession. This record has never before been accomplished in any tournament. All honors in the Antioch six-man team trophy were gained by the gunners of the invincible San Francisco Gun Club. After the remarkably good work which had been mplished during the day the shooters ame careless and the last shoot of the y was characterized by some very in- different scores.

Listless Game Won by the Angels, Who Shut Out the Dudes. ——— Los Angeles 5, Oakland O. More happened at Recreation Grounds yesterday than a baseball game—in fact almost everything but a baseball game. The players, listless on the field, displayed remarkable vigor in opposing Umpire Donohue, and the climax came when Householder of Los Angeles was escorted off the grounds by a uniformed policeman. Householder, the Angel strong hitter, is a kicker as well, With the stick he again demonstrated his ablility by putting the ball over the right fleld fence early in the game, when Brockhoff and Hutch- inson were doing sack stunts. In the fifth inning Householder slid to third, and was callea out. Of course, he bucked head- foremost agalnst the decision, and through his persistence was ordered out of the game. On the benches he sat until the elghth, when, owing to Ewing's weird sort of management, there was no batter ready, and Russell was sent to the plate, n Householder shouted aloud: “You have a nerve to bat, you have!" This wis _the straw that broke the pa- tience of Donohue, who ordered House- holder out of the grounds, The crowd cheered long and loud, and for the first time agreed with the umpire. Donohue resigned after the game, and will be re- placed by Tyler, a baseball player of ex- perience, Moskiman started to pitch for Oakland, and was replaced in the fifth by Russell, who was 80 bad that Ewing changed him for Babbitt In the eighth, The game was listless and characterized by too much sand-lot play. In the fifth inning Francks was hurt at second, and was forced to retire. The Oakland team has been fined $100 for its recent action in Los Angeles, when the nine left before the end of the game to cotch the owl train.

Festerday morning _the sloops Nixie, Surprise and Cygnus hoisteq sail, but after drifting about for lack of wind were towed back to their moorings. Scarely a breath of wind stirred the water during the whole day. The Corinthians cruised up to Petaluma drawbridge on Saturday nrght Commodore H. D. Hawks transfer- ring his flag to the sloop Aeolus. Though they dropped cown on the ebb tide into the bay they could not make their moor- ings and were towed into Tiburon by launches.

'FIRST HONORS IN THE BIG STAKE ARE WON BY SIR PASHA Palo Alto Has the Backing of the Talent, but a Full Limit Course " With Homer Boy in the Semi-Final Ruins His Chances——-Dew- drop Beats Bohe for the Last Flag in the Reserve Stake HE California Coursing Committee stake of high class coursers proved a great attraction, and as a result one of the biggest crowds of the season “‘went to the dogs’ yester- day at Union Park Sir Pasha won the committee stake, with Palo Alto as runner-up. Dewdrop beat Bohe in the reserve final. The fact that For Freedom was on the card in tho big event was responsible to some extent for the large gathering, for many of the patrons were anxious to see the undoubt- ed champion of days gone by put to the test with some of the younger fast ones. Homer Boy went to the slips with the Geary’s dog had to compete with Sir Pasha in the final. No one expected him to make a great showing, though he was well _backed slightly under even money. Sir Pasha got the flag and landed the rich stake. In the reserve event W, C. Glasson's Dewdrop beat H. Perigo’s Bohe in the final by a score of 3 to 2, The runner-up showed considerable of her old-time stake- winning form and was friendly to the short end players. Black Flush took third money. The talent had an unsuccesstul day. In the first round of the class event six of the ten courses went against the dogs on which the big money was placed, and a total of twenty-six errors of judgment was recorded agalnst the knowing ones.

While the imported sprinter showed some of his old- time speed he was outpointed by a sure enough wonder in the coursing game, and at that a dog just out of the puppy class. Sympathy and a kindly feeling had some- thing to do with the setting of the odds at 2% to 1, with the old dog as choice, and it was with the same disposition that his backers lost their money. After For Freedom had been disposed of it looked for'all that Palo Alto had a strong claim on first position. In the fourth round, however, he was given the hardest kind of going, with Homer Boy as an opponent, the course lasting the limit. Though the unlooked for severe work killed Alto’s chances for the stake, it gave the spectators an opportunity of seeing one of the best trials had on the field for some_ time. Twice during the course Homer Boy had the champion go- ing, and had he been able to score the kill on either occasion he would have had the decision.

PHILADELPHIA, May 2.—At the be- ginning of the second week of the ma- chinists’ strike the situation in Philadel- phia is as follows: Sixty-seven firms out of 150 have gone from the ten-hour to the nine-hour day basis without a reduc- tion in wages. The machinists employed by forty-one firms, numbering 2000, con- tinue on strike for a nime-hour day. Forty-two firms have not been affected by the strike because their machinists are thus far insufficlently organized to make & stand with any chance of suc- cess. Strikes will probably be ordered at some of the latter class of places should the unlox;.l omc‘ia\a deem it practicable to take such action. NEW YORK, May 2.—The Central Federated Union of ~New York, repre- senting all of the labor organizations of the city, to-day at its weekly meeting indorsed the Rapid Transit tunnel strike. According to labor leaders, this will re- sult in a complete tle-up of work on the subway unless the contractors accede to the demflndai of the striking engineers rock drillers. llz1"lhe action taken by the Central Feder- ated Union was in direct opposition to the wishes of President Pallas, who has been laboring for some time to establish a friendly understanding between the 1 and_employes. enfi]:}%.y!:;‘ll‘o ):lyn 26.—The members of E3 the International Association of Machin- {sts held a meeunA: to-day to discuss the con}mltseeb rel re-}e'nt- hinists employe e New P8 Sentea, W Tove) hitharto taken no part in the strike, to-day drew up_ a communication addresssed to A. i Waitt, superintendent of motive power, and G.

CUP DEFENDER - TAKES A GPIN Cadets in Washington Accused of Queer Conduct. Speclel Dispatch to The CJ“. SPOKANE, May 26.—The annual en- campment of the cadets of the State Agri- cultural College at Pullman, Wash., broke up in a row last night, and the affair may be tried out in the courts. Captain Kin- sey, U. 8. A., retired, is instructor in mili- tary sclence at the college and 1s assigned by the War Department. Because of the happenings at the camp threats are made that his removal will be demanded. A party of young men who visited the camp with the intention of having fun with the cadets were met with a bayonet charge, in which two horses ridden by the visitors were mfl“i stabbed. It is claimed the cadets fired with ball cartridges at the visitors, who responded with revolver vol- leys of blank cartridges. One of the at- tacking party was thrown from his horse and injured. The whole country near the scene of the camp is worked up and many damage sults are threatened. Bugler Thomas Anders, son of Chlet Justice Anders of the State Supreme Court, was kept in the guardhouse on bread and water for three days for re- tuulns to_act as orderly to CIPlllh Ben- nefleld. G. B. Skinter, a Philippine vet- eran and member of the cadet company, was revntedl{ ducked in a pool of filthy water for fallure to perform police duty ordered. Hlis head was cut by 8 in the pool. The guard had charge of the unishment of Skinner and others simi- arly ducked. The cadets say they had positive orders from Lieutenant Charles Bull, officer of the day, to bayonet any horses which were attempted to be ridden through the camp.

Her sails were mainsalil, jib, staysail and flying Jib. ‘When she left her moorings in the rear of the torpedo station W. Butler Duncan was at the helm and a gentls salling breeze was blowing from the east, The trip was simply to dry her salls, which were thoroughly soaked from the heavy downpour of Saturday, and had it not been for that fact the big sloop would g;ve remained at her moorings the entire y.

NEW YORK, May 26.—After an expe- rience such as seldom falls to the lot of a runaway boy, Cresson De Forest, the 12-year-old son of Dorwin De Iorest, cashier of the Hoffman House, reached his home in this city to-day from San Jose, Cal., to find a welcome awaiting him froia his 'parents unmarred by any un- pleasantness of the kind which often at- tends such home comings. With Henry Rae, a boy two years older than himself, Cresson ‘disappeared from home just five weeks ago to-day. Ior two weeks his parents made diligent in- quiry in every. direction, but without re-/ sult. The mother was almost distracted, but the father, confident of the boy’s abil- ity to take care of himself, did not despair. POINT RICHMOND, May 2.—Carlton Moss, a gatekeeper employed by the Santa Fe Rallroad Company, was seriously poi- soned yesterday from eating canned corned beef. For several hours the pa- tient's life was in the balance, but, after much effort on the physician’s part, fatal results were averted. Moss ate the meat during his lunch at noon. Late during the afternoon he was seized with violent abdominal pains and became suddenly so weak that his fellow- workmen were compelled to hurry him ‘home and to summon Dr. Stockwell. The physiclans dlagnosed the trouble as &go ne poisoning, and treated his pu- ent accordingly. Late last night Moss ‘was reported to be out of danger, He can- rot explain the trouble, havin nothing out of the way with the meat. The physician said it had undoubtedly been improperly tinned. g i 5 Commits Suicide After Murder. ST.

The handicap doubles tournament for the Davis cups, scheduled for yesterday on the California courts, was postponed on account of the condition of the courts, which did net dry until the afternoon. The best match of the day was the spe- cial return contest between George Whit- ney and Frank Mitchell on one side and W. B. Collier and Grant Smith on the other. On Saturday the former beat the latter team by a very small margin, but yesterday Collier and Smith turned the tables by winning & very close flve-set match. The score in their favor was 46, 6—3, 4—6, 6—1, 7—5. Other matches resulted as follows: R. N. Whitney beat Harold Crowell 62, 63, 6—2, 6—2; W. A. Worth-~ ington beat Leonard Wood 4—6, 63, §6—4; Blanchard beat Backus 6—1, 6—1, 6—0; Col- ler and G. Smith tied, 3—3; Ray Cornell beat Al Rosenberg 8§, ; Chet Smith 110| 2465 David § 107| 2471 Alas 0 Bagda 2494 Master C: 9 Dollie Weithe beat Frank Hooper 6—2, 6—3, 6—4; Joe Daily beat Worthington 6—3, 6—1, and C. Kuehn 6—1. In doubles Harry Young and Clyde Beal gi&;t 9('ezlarles Kuehn and G. W. Lane 6—4, On Saturday Norman Hodgkinson, rep- resenting Lowell High School, won the singles championship of the Academio League. Roy Taylor of, Oakland High School, his opponent in the finals, 414 not put in an appearance on Saturday and the match went to Hodgkinson by default. That the Lowell man completely out- classed all his cpponents is shown by the fact that he won the tournament without having plnied a single match, having won each match by default. This is the first time such a thing has happened in the his- tory of tennis on the coast. Lowell, rep- resented by Norman Hodgkinson and Carl Gardner, won the doubles tournament two weeks ago, and by virtue of these two victories she is the champion of the league in tennis for the present year. On Thursday, the 30th of May, there wilk be a scratch singles tournament, open, for the championship of San Francisco. This will be the most important tourna- ment held for many months, and all the cracks have expressed their Intention of entering. George Whitney will probably be the winner, but with Sumner Hardy entered he will have to play his best. Play will be cailed at 11 o’clock. ' —_——————— Annual Picnic of Swedish Society.
