The regatta will be in charge of the committee consisting of T. J. Kavanaugh, J. K. Bulger and Douglas Erskine. The yachts will be divided into six clases: yawls, 20-footers, 25- footers, 30-footers, 36-footers and 44- footers. The committee will follow the races on the steamer Sunol or Resolute, The removal of Blgssom Rock buoy, which was one of the marks, has made it necessary to select a new course. The Goat Island Shoal buoy will be used as a mark instead of the Blos- som Rock buoy. The run will thus be lengthened and the reach to South- ampton Shoal mark shortened and rendered closer to the wind. The 20- footers will beat out to Presidio Shoal buoy and run home to Meiggs whart, The 25-footers and yawls, after round- ing Presidio Shoal buoy, will rouna the Goat Island buoy and the South- ampton Shoal mark and go back to Powell-street wharf to finish.

Kenniff, W. Barnes and A. J. Moller also caught a fair share of fish. Frank Dolliver and Al Banker landed a number of bass at Rodeo, the largest weighing seventeen pounds. Jules Weil fought thirty-five minutes #ome days since with what he supposed was a striped bass. When his boatman finally went to gaff the supposed fish he found it was the top of a tree which was floating down on a strong tide. E. A. Mocker went to Soquel ‘Wednesday for an extended stay. Doc Watt and Sam Wells found a fresh run of fish on the Paper Mill be- tween Camp Taylor and Tocaloma last Sunday and caught a good basket of trout. They averaged from seven to ten inches. O. S.

On a ground covered with good, smooth, level turf his effort would have netted him 140 to 150 runs.

The presidents of the local commer- cial bodies and Major Devol, superin- tendent of the transport service, met at the Chamber of Commerce yester- day afternoon and discussed plans for the entertainment of the fifty prom- inent Filipinos, who are expected to arrive in this port May 28 on the Si- beria. It was decided to tender the visitors a banquet at the Palace Hotel on the evening of their arrival and to give them a bay trip on the Slocum on the afternoon of May 31. The nec- essary funds will be raised by the commercial bodies: T Are Admitted to Practice.

It is estimated fully a quarter of a million of these inani- mate targets will be “trapped” on this coast during the season. The clubs which promote this pas- time in and about this city are the Golden Gate, Union, Empire, Mill- wood, College Ci Blue Rock Club, Alamedasgnd the Escalle Gun Ciub. There are also thriving clubs at Sac- ramento, an Jose, Giant, Martinez, Vallejo, Los Angeles, ‘Hollister and other interior points. Representatives of the majority of these clubs are practicing for the first big open tournament of the Pacific Coast Trapshooting Association to be held at Ingleside on the 29th and 30th Insts. The six-man team shoot will bring some clever shots together. The Golden Gate Club will probably be represented by Clarence Nauman, Otto Feudner. Pete McF Ed Schultz, E. Klevesahl and Clarence Haight. The Union Club men will be M. J. Iverson, George vlvester, Fred Feudner, D. Daniels, E. Gamble and Harry Hoyt. The Empires will have a strong team headed by A. J. Webb and J. B. Hauer. The conditions for the various favor the shooter of average v and a large entry is expected this on. d Schultz, who div for straight breaks, with 111 to his credit, is shooting in good form this year E.

The second team match, twelve men on a d: between the Empire Gun Club amM the College City Gun Club wiil be held to-morrow on the lat- ter's grounds at Berkeley. The Em- pire men won the first shoot. The inanimate targets have almost entirely superseded the live pigeons on this coast, there being but one club, the California, which uses the latter at its meetings. ——————— CHINESE IS BRUTALLY ATTACKED BY FOUR MEN Lasso Him While Entering His Lodg- ing-House and Drag Him Up- stairs by the Neck. Lee Chun Loy, a Chinest living at 907 Stockton street, was the victim of a brutal attack by four white men about 8 o'clock on Thursday night. He reported the matter to the police yesterday and detectives have been de- tailed on the case. He was going into the hallway of the house when four men who were standing in front threw a rope around his neck. It was jerked tight and choked him severely. They dragged him upstairs by the rope, for what pur- pose is not known. One of them drew a long knife and threatened to kill him if he made an outery. They were seen by othee occupants of the building, who shouted for help, and the four men ran away. The one who had the knife dropped it and it and the rope are in possession of the police. Lee Chun Loy was néarly strangled when rescid and he com- plained of severe pains in his back. ——— IS ARRESTED FOR CRUELTY.—A. S.

TENNIS RACKETS IN FULL SWING High School Boys to Finish Their Championship Dou- bles Tournament To-Day The High Schoeol boys of the bay counties will finish their annual cham- pionship tennis tournament on the California Club courts to-day. At 9:30 o’clock this morning representatives of the ten schools who competed in the | singles last Saturday will meet in the doubles. Most of the matches last week were rather one-sided, as players like Schmidt, Long and Hotchkiss out- classed the others and, except when opposed to each other, had no difficulty in winning. The match between Long and Schmidt was the most interesting and exciting ever seen in an academic tournament. The final match was ex- tremely close, but this was due entirely to the fact that Schmidt was exhausted when it commenced. The matches will not be nearly so distressing to-day In the singles, as skill will count for more than endur- ance. The teams are evenly matched and the games should prove interest- ing. Schmidt, the singles champion, will play with Clarence Cunha, a clever player from Honolulu. Long will play with his brother, Melville, and Hotch- kiss will play with Naylor. These teams are the strongest three. It is expected one of them will win. The drawing resulted as follows: Sehmidt and Roberts and Hayden (Oakiand and Naylor (Lick) vs. Me- Jose High); Long briel and LaGarde At Golden Gate Park to-meorrow the third and fourth classes will be played. The first and second were finished last Sunday. In the third class Robert Drolla holds the cup and unless he is taken into camp by Harold Gabriel, he should again win the class. In the fourth class there is a cl and interesting race for the cup. By winning the competition, Guerin placed himself on an even footing with Melville Long, who has twice won the trophy Hall also has a win to his credit. The San Francisco championship, the most important event outside of the San Rafael tournament, will be played on the California Club courts on the 29th and 30th inst. Only about a week is left for practice and the cracks are | putting in every spare moment before the nets. MacGavin and Allen played in miserable form last Sunday, and unless they improve before the tourna- ment the cup will go to a paid player. George Baker played better than ever last week, and at their best MacGavin {and Allen will have no easy time beat- ing him. Percy Murdock has not as yet entered, and consequently the real | struggle narrows down to these threas players. ‘MacGavin intends to practice every day next week. He attributes his | poor form to his examinations at col- | lege, which have taken all of his time during the month. If MacGavin gets into his best form he should have no trouble retaining his laurels, as he holds both Baker and Allen safe when at his best. If Frank Mitchell is in form it would rot be surprising to see him beat either Another man who should not be overlooked is Dr. Mc- Chesney. Dr. Hill, his part is play- ing an excellent game and may sur- | prise some of them. The following players have entered: N. Ambrose, F. C. Adams, G. L. Baker, . Bates, J. A. CodesC. J. Duniap, €. E. Foley, C. J. Griffin, 8. C. Ga; ness, Miller Hotchkiss, Martus Hotchkiss, Janes, J. F. Brady, all of the Golden Gate Club; J. Burrett, N. ‘Alsxander and R. Lichten- berg'of San Rafaei; F. S.
