SALT LAKE, Utah, July 3.—It was of- ficlally given out here to-day that the Oregon Short Line, south of Salt Lake City, would be turned over to the San Pedro, Los Angeles and Salt Lake road on Monday, July 6. The purchase money has | already been turned over_ by Senator Clark in New York, but to-morrow being a uwoliday, the actual transfer of the prop- erty will not take place until Monday. B O e o year-old was in to be sold for $300 and when A. Wellman boosted the price to Cameron ceased bidding. Carson, the rider that Jimmy Coffey says cost him $15,000, through bad rides at Oakland last winter, was tin-canned from here on Thursday last. He deliber- ately got left at tne post with Redwald after belng given two chances to get away. Owner Magrane said: “I guess some one around here owns Carson,” the judges opined likewise, and the rider was told to pack up his trunk and go. Anvil, the three-year-old by Brutus- Grandezia, captured three straight purses and has been sold. The new owners will ship the gelding to British Columbia at the conclusion of the meeting here, with the Victoria derby as the object in view. The betting to date has been exceed- ing all expectations. Last Saturday the ring cleaned up $10,000 and the day pre- vious $8000.

In the junior outrigged skiff race there | are three entries, E. B. Thorning of the | Alameda Boat Club, A. H. Bullion of the Olympic Boat Ciub, and F. J. Sherry of | the Dolphin Boat Club. - If A. H. Bullion | should preve the winner he will pull In the senior skiff race, in which the only other entrant is Fred W. Ayers of the Alameda Boat Club.

The model yacht owners will occupy the lake from noon-till about 2 p. m., at which hour the intermediate four-oared barge race, the first on the programme, wiil be called. The course will be three-quarters of a mile out to the stakes and the same dfe- tance back to the finishing line. Though there will be water enough to row upon it will be too shallow for good times to be looked for. The Alameda crews will row in a new and exceedingly light barge built by Al Rogers, while the Olympic men will use a barge built at Belvedere specially for this regatta. The colgrs of the club are as follows: Alameda Boat Club, red, white and blue; Ariel Rowing Club, royal blue and whitey Dolphin Boating Club, white and blue; Olympic Boat Club, red and white; South End Rowing Club, white and red. —_—— On Eastern Tennis Courts. in J., July 3.—In all the main events of the Middle States championship lawn tennis tournament the.players drew up to the final and semi-finals to-day.

Jeff Wells and ‘Mr. Fountaln each caught fifteen pounds of trout on Wednesday evening. The fishing about Sisson is reported good. The Keyser Meadows are open to anglers who pay $1 for the privilege of fishing. Eastern brook trout are chiefly found there. The Sacramento, from the mouth of Box Canyon to Rainbow, is re- ported in good condition. Fly fishing in the Sacramento north of Dunsmuir is good. The sport at Castella is steadily improving. The trout are tak- ing ne fly at La Moine. Dr, ‘Lane left for Boca last night. Dr. Stevens and Dr. Burnham left for Lake Tahoe and the Truckee district. C. E. Boardman is also among the anglers headed In that direction. L. H. Smith will spend some time at Bassetts, on Lake Tahoe. C.. E. Bundschu and H. Gundlach left for the Big Sulphur on Thursday. Ed.

AUBURN, July 3.—The citizens of Rose- | ville are excited over the possibility of | the railroad company removing the shops at Rocklin a little” farther down “the hill.” They base their conclusions on the fact that the railroad has bonded the Hboit Tract of 100 acres just above the present Roseville station. In consequence there is quite a stir in real estate in the little town and Roseville lots have gone up 30 per cent. While the Rocklin roundhouse is fairly well equipped, there is being no money spent on it, nor has there been for several years. The Rosevilleites say that the rallroad company prefers to have its shops at the foot of the hill and that the extra engines are needed from Roseville® up. Roseville is the junction for the Ore- gon line and in all probability the Beck- with Pass road will touch Roseville. t 5 —_———— Plea of Once in Jeopardy Saves Them.
