Bupervisor W. N. McCarthy said | the removal of the boathouse would leave the street in a worse condition than it is in. now and should not be enforced until | efther the eity or the owners of the prop- erty in that spot show they intend to im- prove the street by bullding a wharf. The Supervisors were in favor of making some icession to the rowing club, and on the attorney of the’club giving a pledge that no further extension of time would sked, gave the club permission to re- main in’ their present location eighteen | months longer. ¢ 3 | At the last sessicn of the State Legis- | lature it was intended to introduce a bill | allotting a definite site for boathouses for amateur oarsmen on San Francisco bay, but in the scramble at the close of the session nothing came of it. It is believed | that.a bill to this effect will be definitely framed at the next session. | About five months ago the Triton Boat- | ing Club, finding,that sand had encroach- | ed so much on the water near their boat- | house that it was quite difficult to launch | a beat, placed the house on a float and | began 'the journey toward a more west- | erly location at the foot of Larkin street. Affer traversing about three hundred | yards the barge, which was in a leaky condition, filled and sank in shallow wa- ter. On December 8 a second attempt was | made with a new barge and the house was successfully conveyed to its present | site. This Is on the beach ndar the foot of Larkin street and is well adapted for boating f\n(l swimming. The new whart for the Italian fishing craft has recently | had a breakwater added to it, which has | broken the force of the tide rip and ren- | dered the water between Black Point and the works of the Equitable Gaslight Company_calmer.

He commenced the building and then entered into an agree- ment with Kennedy whereby the latter | agreed to complete it. Jordan now claims | that Kennedy, in rendering an account of bis expenditures, charged himself with ex- penses that were never contracted.

The stake is. of that class that calls for the pick of cham- pion greyhounds and only the speediest of coursers can be expected to make a showing in the « The crack filer; of the big kennels have been in special training for the meéting and the list of entries will show the names of the great- est coursing hounds in Americy The stake is limited to sixteen entrief, with entrance fee fixed at $10, and will be run | in its entirety on Sunday, January 5. Already such noted dogs as Palo Alto, Beacon, Rector, Vandal, Floodgate, Real Article, A. J. Martin, Hickory Dick, Tra- lee Boy, Little Bister, Narcissus, Flying Fox, Sacramento Boy, Wedgewcod, Tibu- ron and Siseuoc are promised for the event, and with such recognized perform- ers a fast meeting is assured. This will be Sisquoc's first time out since his memorable coursing at Peta- luma in the plains meet, in which the many times stake winner was forced to long" and heart-breaking trials such as have probably never been seen on any other coursing fleld since. Sisquoc’s long rest has worn away the effects of his severe going on his home grounds and his owner is satisfied that the hound will be fit and ready to carry away first honors in the rich event. With Palo Alto and Beacon on the cards, the admirers of the rival coursers are hoping that these two candldates for honors will come together and on equal conditions. Both coursers will have plenty of back- ing and it is not unlikely that they wiil be ecuel favorites for the stake. To reach the final, however, will be no easy work for efther of these champions, for ameng the entries are coursers that are dangerous opponents in the by of stakes. Lord Brazen, the star performer of G. Lacey Crawford's St. Louls Kennel, is on the sick list, with about even chances for re: ry. though if the best of medical sclence and an unstinted expenditure of money can save the noted hound Lord Brazen’s speedy return to health is as- sured. In his cffort to save his favorite courser Mr. Crawford has secured the services of a veterinary surgeon and has a staff of nur to glve thelr entire time to ‘the care of the dog. The highest priced champagre is a feature of the I fact, no child could be given more care and attention than the millionaire leash- man has secured for his greyhound. The Pastime Coursing Club of St. Louls has been given judgment in the suit brought against It by the Humane Soclety of that city and the sport of the leash will, through the efforts of the influentiai associatlon, be made a popular one. The season will close on January 1, and as soon thereafter as practicable Mr. Crawford will send the best performers of his kennel to California for the winter, in charge of Trainer Jackson, to compete in_the stakes at Unjon Park. Thomas Hall of Merced, one of the best known leashmen in the State, has de- clared his Intention of bringing some dogs to compete in the Belle Brandon cup stake on the cards for February 22. This rich annual coursing event was named in hon- or of Mr. Hall's courser, Belle Brandon, Who won the final at the first meet, Union Park offers two stakes for to-day and to-morrow. Both events will be run to-day and the finals will ue concluded to-morrow. Likely winners in the special stake are: \Veddln% Belis, Gold Bug, Bonnle Hughie, Vandal, Real Article, Ruby Sankey, The Grafter, Little Stster, Tom Hurlick, Narcissus, Julean, Loyal Lad, Kibosh, Hickory Dick, Roman Athlete, Firm Fellow, Master Clajr, Master Rocket, Flora McDonald, Wedgewnod, Tralee Boy, Red Rock and Amedee. In the open stake the winners will prob- ably be as follows: Lavona, Bowery Boy, Slim, Alameda Lad, Crockett Hill, Elista, Rosie Freedom, Day- light, Fair Oaks, Minnie Sankey, Sara, Full oon, Sofala, Lottie M, Lilac, Jingle- Hells, Master le May Hempstead, Terronette, Ben Kirby, Bright Gold, Rich Argosy, Re’hnlenm- tive, Fiery Face. l GOLFERS READY FOR NEW-YEAR'S DAY HANDICAP paigei Same Conditions Will Be in Force; as Ruled at the Thanksgiving Day Meeting ew Year's day there will be a handicap golf tournament links.
