During the two years sixty dogs have gone to the slip: First payment has been made on sixty seven of 154 originally listed. Last vear 200 were listed. The falling off this vear is attributed to the possibility of ad- verse legislation which did not material- ize. Nineteen sires are represented in the list, four being imported.

A discussion has been started as to the conditions under which it may be cffered. The Colorado coursing men want it offered for this year's meeting, the cup e the property of the winner.

I TROUT STREAMS GUARD JEALOUSLY THEIR TREASURES Comparatively Few Fish Are Taken Up to Present Time Owing to the Conditions HE protecting mantle of the ele- T ments seems spread over the trout streams of the Pacific Coast, afford- ing a more effective guard than any human patrol. The recent rains have dis- colored the water and but few fish have been taken from the sfreams as com- pared with former years. 1 | | | outriggea The Paper Mill was lined with anglers | last Sunday. The returns were anything but_satisfactory, few fish being taken. Among the well-known =anglers on the stream were Frank Dolliver and brother, Joe Urie, Louis Hoff, Bert Spring, W. A Cooper, J. B. Kenniff, C. R. Kenniff, 3d Gocdman, Mark Goodman, Charles Brelt- enstein, Charles Kewell, F. Marcus, H. Battu, John RButle Wyman and wife and John Gallagher From all reports there are plenty of fish in the Paper Mill, especially about Point Reyes, and it only requires weather conditions to make the angling good. King Harry Edwards will entertain a party of friends to-morrcw at Paul Mais- son's La Cresta vineyard, San Jose. Among those invited are Dr. G. Seifert, L Loeb, Charles Barker, Howell C. Mocre, Paul Maisson, Mr. and Mrs. Ed- wards, Mr. and Miss Roulesu. F. Rou- leau and wife and J. A. Robinson and wifte. Among the anglers on the near Mount Hamilton, some days since were George H. Anderson, W. B. Geuary, Charles George, Peter Martin and Robinson. The cresk w baskets were secured. J. Bernal took sixty-six trout out of Smiths Creek, near Mount Hamilton, last Tuesday, rent, but the water was fairly clear. Fred Bishop fishcd Cavanaugh Creek last Monday. The water was high, but clearing rapidly. George Barnes spent two days at Liber- tys, at the headwaters of the Lagunitas, and caught fifty-three trout. F. Mettmann caught thirty-five Sunday near Libertys. The members of San Francisco Flycast- ing Club will hold their regular Saturda: contests to-day at Stow Lake, Alameda, Fred high, but good last day, owing to ‘to-morrow being Easter Sunday. Next week this and another postponed event will be cast off at one meeting. % F. Carroll caught the.record bass with rod and line in Raccoon Stralls some duys since. The fish welghed 22% pounds and was taken off Belvedere Point. Sam Heller caught a six-pounder in the same vicinity, while Al Wilson took one welghing 14 pounds. From present indica- tions the bass fishing bids fair to be bet- ter than that of last year. —————— Sportsmen Elect Officers.
