Gallagher, in addition to those already named, are practicing for the event. It is expected that about a dozen will enter for the junior race and at least half that number for the open race. From twelve to fifteen preliminary heats will be necessary before the finals are reached. s the club has only a small number of outrigged skiffs the preliminary heats will take up a considerable time, and for this reason the entries will close on Sunday, September 25.

BRANDON, Manitoba, Sept. 9. Thomas Law, of the milling, firm of Al- exander & Law Bros., and Miss Sherwin, a soclety favorite, shot two prairie chick- ens on the farm of L. Rowe, twelve miles from here. This so enraged Rowe that he fired twice at the hunters, shooting Miss Sherwin in the stomach and Law in the knee. Rowe ran home and swallowed the contents of a bottle of poison, dying in a few minutes. Miss Sherwin is not likely to recover. e e Much Cruelty Is Stopped. At the regular monthly meeting of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals held yesterday Secretary Hol- brook’s report showed that during the last month the officers of the charity have investigated 247 cases of alleged cruelty. There were 507 animals involved, of which 238 were afforded relief. / ——— Fishing and Hunting at Lake Tahoe. Commeneing to-day the Southern Pacifis will make special hunters’ and fisher- raen's rates of $ 50 to Lake Tahoe and re- turn, including trip around the lake.

O-DAY and to-morrow are open dates on the programmes of the San Francisco, Corinthian and California Yacht clubs. Many of the boats of the SBan Francisco and Corinthian fleets will sail in the upper bay, the tide, which is high at 1:30 p. m., serving well for a cruise up to Paradise Cove, Marin Islands or McNear's Land- ing. The: yacht owners of the California Club will be busy in bringing their craft back from the ti canal, where they have been moored since last Sunday even- ing for the Alameda aquatic carnival. Vice Commodore A. C. Lee's sloop Sur- prise anmd the sloop Cygnus, owned by Dr. T. L. Hill, but chartered by Lester Hammersmith, took part in the celebra- tion in the tidal canal, as also did W.. M. Edgell's launch Imp. The Park street bridge will be opened at 9 o’clock to-mor- row morning for the purpose of letting the yachts out., Last Sunday the bridge, which was to have been opened at 3:30 p. m. to admit the yachts into the tidal canal, was not opened till nearly 8 o'clock, and most of the yacht-owners were kept on board till nearly midnight. Dr. H. A. Spencer’s schooner Muriel and the $i00 Papoose of the South Bay Yacht Clul came up from Alviso on Monday after- noon and being unable to pass the bridge into the tidal canal, have been lying at anchor off the clubhouse of the California Yacht Club. Last week Commodore Sydney S. Mar- shall of the California Yacht Club invited Queen Tot of the Alameda water carnival to be present at the launching of a miniature full-rigged ship built by Frank Reinhold, who sailed in her to the tidal carnival. ~ She was christened Queen Tot I and is only twenty feet long, with a beam of five feet. Commodore Mar- shall, who is chairman of the aquatic committee of the Alameda carnival, has been smothered in work ‘lately, but feels compensated for his labors by the great success of the aquatic display on Wednes- day night. i Next Saturday, September 27, there wiil be a reception and entertainment at the clubhouse of the San francisco Yacht Club in Sausalito for members of the Corinthian, California and Vallejo Yacht clubs. The committee of arrangements consists of Commodore R. S. B an, Vice Commodore A. C. Lee, Secretary W, M. Edgell, Dr. T. L. Hill, W. G. Morrow, Eugene Lev® Emil A. Dein and R. W' Mason. Dr. ', L. Hill will officiate as master of ceremonies. A circular has been issued to the members of the club, requesting 'them to be In attendance and informing them of the entertainment in store. The evening will be opened with remarks from ex-Commodore I. Gutte, one of the oldest and best-known support- ers of the club. He will be followed by A. J. Treat, who will discourse of side- board yachts and other nautical matters, R. W. Mason will render some coon songs and there will be a boxing match between W. M. Edgell, the biggest man in the club, and Andy Westwater, one of the smallest. After a song from Dan Feder, Dr. T. L. Hill will give 4 recitation. A. C. Ayers will tell storles and sing and songs will be rendered by Mel Furst and V. Smith. A. Hirsch will be heard in a plano solo and A. Hirsch Jr. in a zither solo. W. M. Edgell, having recovered from the pommeling of Andy Westwater, will sing,_and will be followed by Presti- digitator' McDonald. A mandolin solo will be given by Robert Escamilla and songs and stories by D. Mahoney. Sid Cavill, the swimming instructor of the Olympic Club, will tell stories and sing coster songs and Willlam McBain of the Call- fornia Yacht Club will be heard in a cornet solo. Captain Leale of the steamer Caroline wiHl probably be on hand, and Professor Miehling of the Olympic Club will bring over a few tumblers and wrestlers. On Sunday, September 28, the combined fleets of the San Francisco, Corinthian and California clubs will cruise outside the heads, the tide running out till 2:51 p. m. on that day. Though only seven yachts took part in the San Francisco Yacht Club race from Vallejo last Sunday, the event was very interesting_and the finish off the club- house at Sausalito was really exciting. Five of the six boats that completed the course finished within a space of ten minutes, the flagship Thetis beating the sloop Queen by fifty-five minutes actual salling time and capturing third prize. The Challes which conceded time al- lowzances of fifteen to sixty-five minutes to the other boats, ran into a calm spot on the way down and stood too far over to the Marin shore at S8an Pablo Bay. She finished more than three-quarters of an hour ahead of the rest of the boats, but lost first place on time allowance to the awl Ror.\l. ‘which did remarkably well, eing sailed by C. F. Austin. In the Ala- meda_aquatie carnival the prizes for the best decorated craft were awarded as fol- lows: Yachts—S8loop Thelma, first prize and sloop Hope second prize. Launches— Victor first, and W. M. Edgell's Imp sec- ond. Small boats—Royal first, and Queen Tot I, second. VETERAN CRICKETERS : TO ESSAY OLD GAME Team of Graybeards to Try Strength Against the Champions on Alameda Ground. The match between the.Alameda and Sacramento teams, set down on the sched- ule of the California Cricket Association for to-morrow, will not be played, the latter club having withdrawn from all jts engagements during the present season. To fill up the gap and give the local cricketers a game, a match has been ar- ranged between the Pacific Cricket Club and a team of veterans, gathered by A. B, Acklom. The Pacific representatives wilj be chosen from the following named: TS PP ¥ T Callum,” W. Jamieson, D, Jamieson, A. W, Wilding, J. Hopkinson and H. W. Storrs. _The veteran team will be chosen from the follow- ing: Henry Ward Sr., J. H. Harbour, B. G. Sloman, C. Banner, A.'W. Wilding, R. Rooker, W. H. McNaughton, A. E. Acklom, A. S. Rey- nolds, T. W. Pétley, A. E. Altken, J. Purdy, D. Hearfleld and E. Hood. The suggestion has been made in some quarters that the Pacific Club, as winner of the championship of 1%02, should play a match against all comers. But, as the Pacific team would be without the ser- vices of its crack bowler, B. Kortlang, who is now in Australia, and would prob- ably not have those of~C. P. Coles and John Myers, while the -all-comers’ team would include Harold B. Richardson, E. J. Stratton, E. G. Sloman and the pick of the Alameda Club, the contest would scarcely be a fair one. It is likely that a return match between the counties of San Francisco and Alameda will be played on some open date, as the contest last Sun- day proved remarkably close, the Ala. meda County team having four runs to make when the last batsman went to the wickets. ‘With regard to the match set down on the programme between lameda and Santa Cruz at the latter plade on Septem- ber 28, it does not Seem quite certain that the Alameda Club will be able to get a team together, interest in the game hav- ing seriously declined since the chance of winning the championship pennant of the season disappeared. The Santa Clara will, however, it is sald, be ready to m a «combined team of local cricketers on the date set for the match against the Alameda Club. T. W. Blackbane, secretary of the Burns Valley Cricket Club in Lake County, has written expressing the willingness of the cricketers around Lower Lake to receive a visit from a team of San Francisco play- ers at any convenient date before the end of the season. As no public holiday occ- curs until the month of November, it is hardly likely that a team can be made up to visit Lake County this year. ———— TU. of C. Boating Association. The engagement of Henry Peterson as coach for the members of the University of California Boating Association has produced much enthusiasm among the un- dergraduates. He is busy selecting the crews which are to represent the various classes in the class regatta. -The senior class will be represented by Captain Smith, Harley, Kelly and one other not yet chosen. The junior crew will he made up of Captain White. Bunnell, Roadhouse and onme other. The sopho- more crew consists of Captain Anlof, Grindley, Hackley and a fourth man not yet picked. George F. Jones will be cap. tain of the freshmen crew and has near- 1y a dozen men to choose from. From the best men in the class crews will be picked the crews to represent the Unt. Versity of California in the regattas in the fall. ——— e Last Trapshoot af Ingleside. The Union Gun Club will close the trap- shooting season to-morrew on the Ingle- side grounds.

A desirable site for a hatchery has been | located and great results are expected. | It is intended to increase the number of | these fish in the Truckee and in addition | to have an increased supply of ralnbow | és8s for the rest of the State. These | trout are found to be the best for the | large, turbulent streams. | . The Commissioners hope te secure 300, | 000 brook trout from Castle Lake and the | streams about Sissons. It has been found | that no other specles of trout is so weil adapted to the small meadow streams in all the valleys of the Sierra range. Streams that are too small for rainbow are especially adapted (o the needs of the Eastern brook trout. They are a game and a beautiful fish. The Commissioners will hereafter devote considerable atten- tion to their propagation. The_ distribution of black bass is going qn. Deputies M. L. Cross and W. B. Hunc made five successful plants during the wegk. The fish were taken from a smail rescrvoir near Folsom. Last Sunday the deputies took 130 and on” Monday 156 with spoon and fly. They ranged in size from | four to eight inches. It was intended to seipe for them, but the conditions were unfavorable. None were injured in the | capture. Jeff Wells has returned from the Truckee River, where Le spent several months angling for trout and health, John Butler left last night.for Eel River in quest of steelheads. John Gall;gl‘qer. Dr. and Mrs. Bull of Alameda, nk Maskey and other enthusiasts are already on the river. sixteen-pound Sam_ Wells caught a striped bass in Lake Merritt some days since. Howard Vernon caught five bass at San Pablo on Thursday. J. A. Pariser, James Watt and C. B. Hollywoed will try for bass to-morrow. Al Cummings and Mr. Church caught fourteen small bass near Petaluma some days since. Floyd Judah has returned from a two weeks’ trip to Klamath Hot Springs. de secured two bucks, one a four-peinter, weighing 175 pounds. The other ~ yas a forked horn. Mr. Judah and L. A. Wash- burn went ten miles up Shovel Creek and enjoyed great angling. He caught 144 brook trout, averaging from _seven to eleven inches, in two hours. It was on the return journey he secured the forked horn, which crossed his path at an oppor- tune time. —————— You Shouldn’t, But if you do play poker we have the cards and chips at lowest prices.
