Richworth Mekelson, at one time one of the best players on the coast, is in town and is playing regularly. He will probably play at San Rafael. Mekelson was the academic champion for sev- eral years. The class singies tournament which was commenced at the park several weeks ago will be finished to-morrow. —_———— Latonia Race Results.

The advance in public favor of the, automobile as a vehicle of pleasure and of utility has apparestly made no inroads upon the popularity of the horse as a healthful and an enjoyable conveyance about the country. The bridle paths of Golden Gate Park re- sound with the laughter of groups of equestrians who are enjoying these glorious summer days to the fullest ex- tent. The accommodations of the Riding Club are also taxed to their capacity. In the past, while the riders have shown the effects of the instruction of ‘r | { | | | 1 | have entered upon their experiment with enthusiasm. To create an interest in the new type on this coast they purchased some splendid representatives in the East, which they are showing at the San Francisco Riding’ Club. These horses all have a dash of the thor- oughbred, showing it in their confor- mation and in their fine heads, full of character. They have many distinct gaits and change from one to another at some signal which an onlooker would not notice. At a slight snap of the fingers they canter, while a touch on the mane makes them start on a square trot. Particular attention has been paid to thelr mouths and it seems they can be controlled with a silken thread. Mr. Hewitt, the manager of the farm, is an accomplished horseman and shows off the high development of his charges in an Interesting manner. His favorites are Artistic and Grace Boyd. They have remarkable action and show the effects of skillful hand- ling. TROUT STREAMS ARE BECKONING ANGLING HOSTS Stories of the Sport on the| Klamath River Stir the| Blood of Many Sportsmen BIG DEMAND FOR FLIES| Rush Shows the Fishermen | Are Preparing for An-| nual Outings Far Afield >— A. M. Cumming, whose fame as an| angler is known far and wide, has just returned from the Klamath, tanned as brown as an Indian and with tales of the fishing afforded by that noble stream which send the blood coursing and surging through the veins of a sportsman. In four weeks Mr. Cumming took 650 pounds of trout at a point on the stream within’a hundred yards of the | hotel. His best catch for one day was | thirty-eight fish of an average weight| of two pounds. The smallest catch was ten fish. As the flies were not out he used the spoon or minnow or crawfish. The salmon and codis flies are out now and the trout are striking freely. | The small streams tributary to the river—Jenny Creek, Bogus, Fall and| Shovel Creeks—will be at their best for flyfishing next week. They will afford | sport throughout the season. In July the quinnat salmon will com mence to run, and many large fish are | taken each year. The country is a sportsman’s paradise, as deer, doves, quail and other game are to be found | in abundance during the season. It is twenty-four hours from San Francisco, and of the total distance there is only nine miles of staging. The Klamath Lake Railroad confiects with the South- | ern Pacific. The mountain streams and lakes are unusually backward owing to the se- vere winter.

POPULAR FAVOR COMMUTERS LOOK LIKE HEADLINERS FOR HALF SEASON From Present Indications Lohman’s Stars Will Lead League When Time Expires PORTLAND’S HARD LUCK When Dugdale Gets Team in Shape Again There May Be a Big Surprise in Store -— Oakland has managed to maintain the leadership in the baseball fight for another fortnight, and the chances of being the headliner at the first half of the season, July 24, look good and bright for the venerable Lohman. At that, he will not slide in after a leis- urely fashion, for there are a couple more baseball clubs in the league that are liable to be after him in hotfoot order. - The Oakland manager has been doing great things with his ball team within last few weeks, considering it is three places, two of them Peter himself has not experienced the pleasure of winging any base runmers out at second for nearly three weeks, while Francks has been on the shelf for a week, and Dun- leavy’s timely bingle has been missed for more than a month. If Portland could only be spared a little of that hard luck that has been landing in her camp by the bucketful the northern team might give some of the topnotchers a tussle for the hon- ors. There is no team in the history of the league that has suffered more hardships than has the northern aggre- gation. Instead of getting Castro back into the game Manager Dugdale handed a pack: in the form of the nan and Francis. But crippled in almost fatally. was road has its turn, and the Web- every feet will surely enjoy a chance to rally ere long. That extended series between Seattle and Tacoma in the north mey be ex- ceedingly tedious to the fans there, but at any rate it has done much to make the race interesting. Both teams are and the way they have been seesawing makes the run excit- ing. They will ve still one more k of it after the present series is finished, y that time the Tacoma want to see a Seattle Yy ,and the Seattle rooters will about go frantic when they lay eyes on another Tacoma star. Uncle Harris says he will be rest- as soon as he grabs another The San Francisco team certainly needs such a man and him badly. Uncle claims to have a fast one in the East all but signed up. He will have to get him on the ground in a rush if he wants to cut in on the honors for the first on. Umpire Huston is not the best judge of balls and strikes in the world. He the first day he um- first baseman. improved sinceethat time. In Thurs- game Julie Streib received a rap on the hand from the ball at bat, but Huston refused to him to take base, although fan in the grand stand saw the player get hit. It is an umpire's busi- ness to see these things and Mr. Hus- ton misses a lot of them. Dunleavy’s injuries are not as seri- ous as was at first thought and the fast center flielder will soon be cut- ting ‘capers in the Oakland outfleld. Lohman thought Dun would not be able to play y more ball this sea- son, but luckily for him and the team he is on the road to a speedy recovery. It looks as though Jimmy Byrnes had landed a permanent job on the Jimmy was a try-out man for the last couple of years in this league as well as in the Pacific Northwest organization, but for some mean while allow reason never held a job long.

There has been a tendency to think that nature designed all horses for saddle pur- poses, when such is far from being a fact.
