It was competed for on Independence Day for the fifth time and the names of five fair golfers are inscribed on its pol- ished surface. The defeat of Miss Edith Chesebrough by Miss Florence Whittell was a surprise to the admirers of the former who have noted her rapid improvement on the Presidio links, where she has been a reg- ular visitor.

FLORK BELLE WIS HONORS Clever Courser Annexes Classified Event at Ingleside. J. Regan’s clever greyhound Flora Belle won first honors in the classified event yesterday at Ingleside Coursing Park in a manner that proved her a courser of the right sort. In her first trial Flora Belle romped away from the once champion Wedge- wood and ended the trial without allowing him a point. Then against Glaucus, Tillle R, Reno and Belfast she repeated the per- formance and reached the final with a clean score. With a strong hare to follow in the de- ciding course Flora Belle easily outpointed Mount Rose and annexed the stake. Golden Rule fooled the talent by taking the flag from Sempronius, a 1 to 4 favor- ite. Royal Friend looked to have a good chance to contend for top honors, but fell a victim to hard coursing. Judge Creamer's campaigner Lily Wright raised the final flag In the open stake, beating Golden Garter, Young Fearless and Lulu Girl in turn.

NATIONAL LEAGUE. CHICAGO, July 5.—Chicago gave the crip- pled New York team the game to-day by dumb playing and numerous errors. The game was stopped several times to allow Injured players to recover. Brésnahan was called into the game from the grand stand and Chicago pro- tested, but the game was allowed to proceed | in order not to disappoint the big crowd. The protest was made under rule 27, section 1, which requires all players, Including substi- tutes who are to take part In the game to be on the field in uniform at the beginning of the game. The condition of the protest is said to be unique in the history of national chimpionship playing.

Most of the crack tennis players who participated in the championship tourna- ment at San Rafael rested yesterday after the strenuous week's work. The park courts were as much in demand as usual, but affairs were not ltvely on the Califor- nia courts. A fast and exciting doubles was played on the public courts. The opposing teams were: Charles Dunlap and George Baker and C. Foley and Stewart Gayness. The former team, although considered much stronger than its opponents, had great difficulty in winning. The score was 10-8, 7-5. Another high class match was that in which Harry Routh and Charles Dunlap took the measure of Clarence Griffin and George Janes, the pony team. Young Griffin is making rapid strides and if he continues to improve will shortly go into the first class. The most interesting singles match was that between George Janes and E. P. Fin- negan. Janes was a trifie too strong for his opponent and took two close sets. The following matches were played: Charles Dui Foley and 8. & Raayhees. 108, 130T, Betwin gus beat W.

The idea is to have the courts on the raised ground in front of the clubhouse of bitumen. This is an ideal spot for exhibition courts and could be used as well for practice. Commissioner Lloyd, who does so much for the park players, favors the plan and there is little doubt but it wille be carried out. Tpe drawing for the handicap doubles tournament to be played on the park courts Sunday will be held Thursday night, when the entry list will close. —_———— SANTA CRUZ, July 5. — Bishop Conaty prea: to a large congregation at the Catho- e Ehoarch thin morning.

The members of the club pro- pose celebrating properly in commemora- tion of the event. When the Centennial Exposition was held In 1576 at Philadelphia, and the rifle shots of the world were invited to test their skill, Philo Jacoby gathered about him six members of the California Schuetzen Club to represent this State in the contest. These six members were A. Strecker, A. Rahwyler, William Koenig, Willlam Streuly, Willlam Ehrenpfort and A. Bauer. These men paid their own ex- penses, went to Philadelphia and defeated all comers, bringing back to California the world's championship and a handsome trophy, which they still retain, In speaking of the affair yesterday, Philo Jacoby said: “The emblem of our California Schutezen Club is the bear flag of this State, and when we went to Phil delphia in 1576 it was the first time the East ever saw it. We captured the cham- pionship, defeating the next best team, the Helvetia of Switzerland, by sixty- eight rings. Willlam Hayes, at that time shooting king of the Bundest, took third prize with his team from Newark, N. J. “Mr. Hayes was here last year and lost his crown to A. Strecker, the present bundest king, and a member of the team which took the champlonship at the Cen- tennial Exposition contests.” Mr. Jacoby neglected to state that he made the high- est score. There are but four members of the orig- inal team in this city. They are Jacoby, Strecker, Rahwyler and Ehrenpfort.
