FLEET HOUNDS WILL START IN THE JOHN GRACE CHALLENGE CUP STAKES DUCKS NUMEROUS IN WATERS OF BAY Sportsmen Do Not Expect ‘Good Shooting Until the Storms Scatter the Birds PORTSMEN are still awaiting pa- tient the coming of “duck weather,” ‘which will tend to im- I prove the shooting on the varfous marshes. The sport on all the preserves last Sun- day was comparatively poor, few men re- | turning with good strings of birds. Down | Mount Eden way Otto Feudner was high |gun with twenty-six birds. The fe- | mainder on the -gunm possessions | tapered off quickly to a handful of birds apiece. | Reports are to the ‘effect that the bay is fairly alive with ducks. They are rest- ing there quletly and need a severe storm to set them in motion in search of shel- ‘m— inland. If such a storm comes at an | opportune time for the gunmen they are sured of royal rt. The rain some i days since was not h enough to have | either a good or a bad effect on the shoot- ing. A party of Empire Gun Club men are go- ing down to their Monterey preserve to- night. In the party will be Frank A. Martin, Con Roman, F. 8. Judah, C. E Bundschu, L. Aubert, Lewis H. Allen, J. B. Hauer, Dr. George G. Gere, C. A. Ben- | | | nett, Dr. Clyde Payne and possibly James | P. Sweeney. | The new clubhouse will probably be completed next Wednesday. The pre- serve is so large and so varied in its re- sources that the members hardly expect | to develop all its possibilities this season. | They expect some royal sport when the | canvasbacks arrive in numbers, Todd Wheeler, the 12-year-old son of Charles 8. Wheeler, the well-known at- torney, is the proudest young nimrod in | all the State. While out with his dogs on Tuesday near his father's country home on Horseshoe Bend, on the McCloud River, they started up a big black bear. The youthful sportsman was game and tackled the bear. Four bullets from his 80-30 rifle ended the career of bruin. The skin will -be properly preserved and kept |as a memento of the young hunter's prowess. —_———— Greyhound Is Killed. Chicago -Boy will be an - absentee. at Union Coursing Park to-day when the John Grace Challenge Cub stakes will be run. While he was being exercised on the road yesterday he encountered Poco- telli, the young grevhound from Sacra- mento. As the result of the injuries he sustained Chicago Boy had to be de- stroyed. His absence from the stake as- sures the last five dogs in the first round their entrance money. The ones affected are White Hat, Fenh, America, Lost Chord and Harlean Galdys. After figuring form on the big stake experts look for Sacramento Boy, Palo Altd, Pocotelli and Black Coon to be the | Jast four dogs left in to compete for the | big prizes, barring accidents. Palo Alto, Sacramento Boy, Beacon, Aeolus and-Other Old Favorites Entered FTER weeks of preparation the coursing men have their fleetest greyhounds in condition for the eighth renewal of the John Grace Challenge Cup stakes, which will be run to-day and to-morrow at Union, Coursing Park. The Interstate Coursing Club offered the John Grace challenge cup for compe- tition for the first time in 1896 at Newark. It atiracted an entry of forty-eight grey- hounds and was worth $132 to the winner and $72 to the runner-up. The stake was divided by Robinson & Peyton's Fear Not and Kirk Glen. D. Dillon's Lady Fitz- gerald was third. In 1897 the stake was decided at Ingle- side, forty dogs going to the slips. First prize of $300 wert to Grace & Dean's Nel- lie Conroy. J. Kerrigan's St. Lawrence took second 'money, $150," and Bartels & Rosseter's Brandon Belle $75, third money. The scene of operations was shifted to Union Park in 1808, where 'the stake has since been decided. In that year James Dean’s Connemara carried off $600, the lion'’s share of the purse. 'T. Butler's Susie won second money, $315. Curtis & Son's Cavalier and R. E. de B. Lopez's Green Valley Maid each won $125. In 1899 sixty-four dogs competed, J. H. Rosseter's great English dog, For Free- dom, winning first ‘'money, $700. T. J. Cronin’s Thornhill won $350 as runner-up. E. & R. Scott's Lord Byron and H. F. Anderson’s Crawford Braes each won $150. E For some time the coursing men had been agitating a change in the date of running what had grown to be the -sec- ond most important coursing event in the world. It was exceeded in value by only the English Waterloo. It was found the hares were weak in February, the usual B e e M M i e SR S S PAT DUNNE’S TOAH WINS FROM FEDERAL AT WORTH Miladi Takes the Race for Maiden Fillies Over the Eclipse Gou/rle at Morris Park.

The strike; which developed shortly thereafter, upset these plans, the attendance at ‘the park not warranting such an outlay. Instead the event was cut'down to a §25 entrance fee, forty-eight dogs. facing the slipper. A. R. Curtls’ Beacon and Rector finished one, two; the former’s share of the purse being $600 and the ldtter's: $300. - D. J. Healey's Sisquoc received $200, third money. This" vear ‘the stake s back to its old standard, the managemert of Union Park adding %3400 to' a like amount received in entrance -fees. The first round of the stake will be run to-day upon the arrival of the 10:15 o'cloek train. After this has been run down once the dogs beaten in the first round wiil then meet in the stake, called the purse. To-morrow the dogs beaten in the purse will start in a_ consolation event. Under this dfstribution of the money only six out | of .the original sixty-four entries will not win back their entrance fees. First prize in.the cup will be $1000, ,in the purse $175 and in the consolation $150. In looking over the list of dogs in train- ing Which would have a chance for some of this big money the officials found fifty- six were ineligible, as their owners were | not members of the Interstate Coursing Club. In addition to the 10:15 train to-day there will also be special trains to the park at 11:30 and 1 o'clock. To-morrow trains will run at 10:15, 11, 12, 1 and 2 o'clock. -The lkely winners look to be: Belfast, Royal Archer, General Dewet, Hickory.

SCOTTISH BOWLERS ENTER FOR PARK TOURNAMENT First Round Will‘'Be Played To-Day on the Special Green Near the Tennis Courts. The first tournament under the auspices of .the San Francisco Scottish Bowling Club will operi this afternoon on the spe- cial bowling green in Golden Gate Park. The green is near the tennis courts. Lov- ers of outdoor sports will find much -to interest theém in this game, which has been popular in England and Scotland for more than ‘300 years. The entries for the tournament are: M. L.

Several matches are to be played between the different schools. Mount Tamalpais Mil- | itary Academy players have challenged Lowell High School and to-day Lowell | meets the California School of Mechanical Arts (Lick). Each school will have two representa tives and the points will be counted as in intercollegiate matches, one point for eath match in singles and one point for | doubles, making three points in all. The | decision of the day’s play undoubtedly | lies in the match in doubies, as Gorham, | Lick's best man, is favorite over Beyfuss | of Lowell, and Cassell of Loweil should | not_have much trouble in cefeating Cut- | ler of Lick. The match in doubles should be interesting, as these teams are evenly | matched. The standard in the Academic Athletic League tennis this year is not as high as it has been in former years, as meost of | the players are beginners. If these matches between the schools continue un- til" the champlonship events some high- class tennis may be expected next April. One wegk from to-day the first mixed | doubles tournament ever held on Golden Gate Park tennis courts will be started. | The players at the public eourts are look- | ing forward to the event with much in- terest. All of the cracks have mignified their intention of participating and some strong teams have already been formed. H. E. Routh has joined forces with Miss Varney, who is the champion at the park courts. They will be one of the strongest teams entered: Charles Dunlap will be Miss Gardner's partner. A. Beyfuss and his sister will form a team. As vet no other teams have been formed, but there | Is good material to draw from. All the teams wiil be evenly matched. Many of the younger- players at the California Tennis Club are rapldly forg. ing to the front, especially so in the case of Herbert Schmidt. A short time ago young Schmidt won in the third class, Since thenx has been defeating the sec- ond class m and has tackled some of the best men in the first class, who seem to have a hard time disposing of him. Jack Gibson is another of the younger players who has been showing welil lately He' will_probabiy be called upon to play in the second class in the next tourna- ment.

Many of the yachts will cruise to their destination mx; g ing and the rest will sail, or in de! aud ‘; {ke necessary breeze, will be towe P -morrow morning. . mP!:rt Captain John H. Keefe will ha\: charge of the catering arrangements an will take the necessary provisions in a Jaunch from Tiburon to-morrow morning. The feature of the day will be the annual baseball game between the Keegans and the Shorts, the former nine being cap- talned by F. E. Schober and the latter by Jack Short. To-day and to-morrow are open dates on the schedules of the San Francisco and California clubs, but as the tide serves well for a cruise up the bay on Sunday morning, it is likely that several boats from Sausalito and Oakland Creek will make their way to Corinthian Cove. The :tide to-morrow floods until 12 H_ P- m. at Fort Point and runs out until 7:63 . m. i All three clubs hold their closing en- tertainments at their clubhouses on Sat- urday night, the 25th inst., and this cir- cumstance has made talent scarce and hard to obtain. The San Francisco Yacht Club, having recently had a jinks, a day of nautical sports and a small yacht re- gatta, will give a dance on closing night. The Corinthians will give a jinks, the arrangements for which are being mado by the jinks committee, the _.embers of which are J. V. O'Brien, chairman; E. J Bowes, F. W. Thompson, W. H. Howe, M. W. Harris and W. H. Crowell. All three clubs will take closing cruises on Sunday, the 26th. The last cruise of the season will probably be in the channel in the direction of the heads, as the tide runs out from 8:01 in the morning until 1:56 in the afternoon, and therefore is nct favorable for a cruise up the bay. On Snnday, November 2, the bridge at Bell- vedere will be raised and _the fleet of pleasure craft will pass through it into the lagoon, where the yachts will re- main until the approach of summer causes them to don again their suits of white canvas. The California Yacht Club has appoint- ed its committees for closing night, Sat- tirday, the 25th. N. Walter, the treas- urer, will bave charge of the catering de- partment, the reception of the guests be- ing in the hands of a committee consist- ing of August R. F. Brandes, H. L. Mar- tin, Charles Vogel and J. E. Back. The decoration of the fleet with signal and prize flags will be in the care of G. A. Larue, A. J. Garrat and A. M. Clay while G. L. Wakeman, Willlam Ramsey, E. N. Walter, Willlam McBain and E. W. Schernstein constitute the entertain- ment committee. A stringed orchestra will be one of the chief features of the entertainment. The capital stock of the California Yacht Clubhouse Building Association was at first fixed at $5000, but has been increased to $10,000, in 200 shares of $5 each. It was found that a commodious clubhouse with modern appliances could not be satisfactorily built and equipped for the smailer sum. George M. Shaw's yawl Idler of the Cal- ifornia Yacht Club will cruise to Paradise Cove to-day on a fishing trip. Dr. Donald M. McRae returned recently from a trip to Alaska, where for six months he was stationed at Karluk, Ka- diak Island, as surgeon of the Alaska Packers' Association. As the doctor now weighs about 256 pounds he will be good live ballast for some Oakland Creek craft, —_—— CROLL STANDS FIRST OF ALAMEDA BATSMEN Highest Bowling Average for Season Among Encinal Cricketers Is Made by Harold Ward.
