The fourth class was finished last Sunday and again resulted in a vic- tory for Melville Long. The finals of the first class, which were scheduled for last Sunday, will be played to-morrow at 2 p. m. The match was called off last Sun- day on account of the weather, but will positively be played to-morrow. As all the matches for to-morrow are the finals or semi-finals, they should prove close and interesting. The first class match will be the feature and gives prom- ise of a great struggle. The contestants will be George Baker of Oakland and Charles Dunlap of San Francisco. It will be three sets out of five. In the second class the best match will come in the semi-final round, when George Janes and G. D. Russell meet. Janes is one of the park’s most promis- ing youngsters, while Russell is a vet- eran, who has won honors in the East. He has not played for five years, but is fast getting back to his old game. Many pick him to’ win the class, despite his lack of practice. The winner will meet the winner of the Foley-Ambrose match. In the third class there will also be three matches. Stewart Gayness will meet J. R. Lewis and Fred Adams will be opposed to L. D. Roberts. Gayness has already won the cup twice and a vic- tory to-morrow will give it to him per- manently. He won his matches easily last SBunday and is a favorite for the class honors to-morrow, although he will have to play his best to win, All the cracks are practicing hard for the coming coast championship tourna- ments. They will commence vn the last days of this month and be finished on September 9. J. D. MacGavin returned from Nome on Monday and will take up the game next week. MacGavin has not played since May 30 and will have to play constantly to be in his best form by the end of the month. Grant Smith is giving most of his at- tention to his back-court game, which has always beén much weaker than his net game. Smith is developing a sure half- speed drive that should win him many points when he is unable to assume the net position. In doubles it will be up to Smith and MacGavin to wrest the cups from the southern players. 'As both have im- proved very much in the last year a great deal is expected of them.. The southern men, especially Bell, have also improved and the games are expected to prove more interesting this year than last. Freeman, the champion, appears to be in poor form and unless he picks up wonderfully In the next two weeks the chances are there will be a new coast champion for the coming year. It is ex- pected the great struggle for first place in the tournament will be between Bell, Smith and MacGavin. In the women's events the Buttons will again carry off all the honors. Miss Miriam Edwards will be the sirongest lo- cal player, but her chances of beating the clever Sutton sisters are anything but good. Professor Joseph Daily, who attended the Southern California tournaments, re- ports that May Sutton is playmng a stronger game than ever. il it e MONTANA CATTLEMEN WHIP HERDER TO DEATH Feud With the Sheepmen Results in Cruel Murder by White- o~ cap Methods: BUTTE, Mont,, Aug. 14.—A dispatch from Du Puyer, Mont., says: Fourteen masked men took a herder from the sheep camp of Joe Sturgeon last night, and car- rying him ten miles-into the mountains, tied him to a tree and whipped him to death. The men were cattlemen, who had warned the sheepmen to leave the coun- try. They shot many of the h s sheep and drove the rest away. The name of the dead herder cannot be learned.

S the time for the running of the California Futurity for greyhounds draws near interest in the event is increasing among the leashmen, many of whom have candidates in training for the rich event. Some of the puppies are being tried in private, while others are learning the rudiments of the game in open stakes, where they meet older coursers. This is considered the best method of accustom- ing them to the field, as they run under the same conditions they will encounter whén they compete for the stake. The event continues to bear an open look, no one of the candidates ,which have appeared up to the present time standing out above its fellows. The meeting of the Interstate Coursing Club, called for last Wednesday night, was continued until the 26tht inst., owing to the lack of a quorum. At the next meeting arrangements will be completed for the running of the Futurity, which is one of the stakes held under the aus- pices of the club. A successor to the late Carl Chiarini, who represented the club on the California Coursing Committee, the governing body of the sport on this coast, ‘will also be selected. A string of ten greyhounds arrived at Colma some days since from St. Louis. They will be placed in active training at once and will soon be seen in competition. George Nethercott, the Sacramento coursing man, has bought Game Boy from Joe Shea. W. C. Glasson hhs bought Modest Beauty from the same owner. L. M. Connell has bought Siskiyou from Martin Fahey. Merciless won the thirty-two-dog stake last Sunday at Los Angeles. - Grafter won the open stake at the Butte meeting on the same day. The coursing to-morrow at Union Park will commence, as usual, upon the arrival of the 10:15 a. m. train. Owing tb the serious injury to Judge Grace, his son, John Grace Jr., will officlate in the sad- dle. Pocatelll will make his reappearance on the field after a long absence. His pri- vate trials indicate he has regained his championship form. Sacramento Boy and Palo Alto are also among the entries.

More fish entered the river than for many seasons, but the bulk came dur- ing the past two weeks, when the largest rung in the history of the river took place. In that short time the capacity of the canneries was .wholly inadequate to dispose of the enormous quantity of fish, though the shortage of the first part of the season was only partlally overcome. —_——————— Sweetser & Burroughs Fail.
