E. R. Wright, a member of the club, is in this city and has made a -bld for the event. The Los Angeles park is a half- mile outside the city limits and is easily accessible by several lines of street cars. The field contains forty-four acres of sofl free from rocks, which makes a good foot- ing for the greyhounds. Henry Lyons is the judge. The officers of the club are anxious to attract some of the good dogs from this city. They may offer a month’s coursing, giving a stake each week with $100 to first and $60 to second. Some of the enthusiasts are in the market to purchase high-class hounds, and some now running here may find thelr way into thelr hands. E. R. Wright of Los Angeles has pur- chased Aeolus from George MacE. Mal- | colm. Aeolus is by For Freedom-Golden Russet. He has won a number of stakes, including the open meeting last year at Petaluma. He combines the For Freedom and Skyrocket blood. The terms were not made public. The stake at Butte last Sunday was won by Confidence. He is by Temple- Lady Falconer and is a brother to Charm- ing Thought and Cloudburst. The runner- up was Frisco, by Young America- Firenze. The coursing at Ingleside Park to-day will commence at 12:30 p. m., when the first round of a 112-dog stake will be run. The total prize money is $672 50. The first brace of dogs will be sent to the slips to-morrow at 10:30 a. m. The likely win- ners look to be: Pepper Jack, Kerry Pippin, Articulate, Lady Davenport, Miss Brummel, Full Moon, Bright Fortune, Cascade, Wedgewood, Homer Boy, Red Pepper, Modest Beauty, Honest John, Charta, Reta S, Firm Fellow, Prompto, Go On, Lady Menlo, Wapsee, Menlo Prince, Yu- kon, Glaucus, Fiora Bird, John Doe.

ANGLERS READY FOR VACATION DAYS AFIELD Are Laying In a Supply of Tackle and Dainty Flies With Which to Lure Trout HE establishments which deal in tackle for anglers are the scenes of marked activity these days, as-the men who wield the delicate rods are preparing for vacation days on some fa- vorite streams. The flles for which the anglers are asking are the March Browns, Stone, Red Spinner and gray hackles with various bodles. Mr. Dickinson of the Southern Pacific Company is at Verdi, on the Truckee. He has taken a lot of trout, using a spoon. His largest fish was a four-pounder. S. Symmes has gone to Verdi. After a short stay there he will go to Indepen- dence Lake. Both Webber and Independence lakes will open for the season within the next ten days, Al Cumming and wife are still bn the Klamath and are enjoying rare sport on that stream and its tributaries. F. Tleck is credited with the record striped bass of the year on Lake Merritt. Some days since he landed a thirteen- pounder and was the envied of the other fishermen, / L. C. Nilsson sent fifteen fine trout to F. M. Haight from the McCloud early in the week. G. M. Bowman and Mr. Krohn left for the McCloud last Tuesday for a try at the trout in that great stream. The members of the San Francisco Fly- casting Club will meet at Stow Lake/ Golden Gate Park, to-day and to-morrow in claseification and re-entry contests. The club has completed half of its sea- son’s echedul ————————— Gaddie Pleads Guilty. Henry Gaddle, a colored man known as “Cat’s Eye,” pleaded guilty to a charge of assault with a deadly weapon in Judge Lawlor's court yesterday and will be sen- tenced tg-day. The original charge against him was assault to murder. On April 2 he fired five shots at Flossie Douglass, a colored woman, in a house at the corner of Hinckley and Pinckney alleys. ——————— Police Want Grocery Clerk. James McArdle, grocer, 150 Church street, secured a warrant from Police Judge Fritz yesterday for the arrest of Jacob Hoffman on a charge of grand lar- ceny. He said that he discharged Hoff- man, who was a,clerk in his store, last Sunday, and he alleges that Hoffman forced open a trunk in the storeroom and stole $250 in gold coin. The police have been searching for Hoffman, but so far have been unable to find him. TENNIS CRACKS INTERESTED IN CHAMPIONSHIPS First of the Big Meetings to Be Held Decoration Day at California Club HE crack tennis players are practic- ng regularly for the annual cham- pionship tournaments. The first of these will be a scratch single for the championship of San Francisco. ago, is played annually on the California Club courts on Decoration day. The first tournament of the kind was won by George Whitney. Last year Grant Smith won the tournament and holds the cham- pionship. The cleverest players from Golden Gate Park and the California Club will com- pete. The men from the park who are expected to play are Charles Dunlap, Harry Routh, the Hotchkiss brothers, George Janes, Clarence Griffin and James Code. The California Club will be repre- sented by some strong men. The favor- jtes are MacGavin and Smith. R. N. Whitney, W. B. Collier and Harry Weihe will enter, and, although somewhat out of practice, stand a good chance of winning. The tournament will be heid under the auspices of the Pacific States Lawn Ten- nis Association. It will Saturday next, and, If possible, will be finished the following day. Four prizes will be offered. The women players of the park have postponed their tournaments until June, when a handicap singles and doubles will be played. In the first class the cups have been disposed of. The second and third classes will be played until the trophies have been won three times. The singles tournament will be for the Jack- mann cup. The State championship tournament will be played as usual at San Rafael on July 4. The entry list will probably be the same as that for the San Francisco champlonship. The cracks from Southern California will not come up until Septem- ber, when the coast championship events will be played. The Southern California championship tournaments will be played in August. Drummond MacGavin will not be able to go south this year, and the chances are his place will be taken by Harry Weihe. Smith and Weihe will play together in the doubles. They will not be quite as strong a combination as MacGavin and Smith, but should make it interesting for the southern cracks. MacGavin and Smith will play together in the Septem- ber tournament. ———————— ' SAN FRANCISCO ELEVEN ON THE CRICKET FIELD New Club Meets Pacific Team in First Match of Second Round at Alameda.
