The hull draws 2| feet 6 inches and the fin brings the draft up to 6% feet. She has a short bowsprit of 3 feet 7 inches and carries about 1000 square feet of canvas, She was built by John Twigg & Sons and won the cup by defeating the sloop Harpoon, sailed by F. R. Cook. The Corinthian, designed by W. 8. Burgess of Boston, is 56 feet over all, 24 feet on the water line and has 14 feet | € inches beam. She has a draft of o feet 7 inches and a centerboard | with a drop of about § feet. The steel body was constructed in the East and the wooden skin covering it was bullt by F. Stone & Co. F. Stone will sail her, the crew being made up of J. C. Brickell, N. McLean, J. Short, F. E. Schober and Douglas Erskine. W. G. Morrow, owner of the Chal- lenger, will sajl her and has the advan- tage of great familiarity with his boat. It is thought the Challenger will do best in a hard blow, but that the Cor- inthian may slip along faster in light airs. The race will be unusually in- teresting, as being the first that has occurred between two regular racing machings in this bay. Allen M. Clay has been invited to act as referee. ——————— McGARY ESTATE.—Judge Coffey yesterday J wppointed Clara MeG.

It is one leader to-day and another to- morrow. If anything, the struggle for supremacy has waxed more keen in the last few days, and it seems another fortnight will be required to tell which team can rightly call the first place its own. Los Angeles seems to have developed a faculty for hitting the ball as soon as it arrived on northern soil. This was the weak spot in the southern team while it was playing here and on the home grounds. The Angels ha really outslugged the mighty slugg the Siwashes, on their own battle- ground, and if they can keep this up there will be doings. The Oakland team has not been play- ing its game for the last couple of weeks. The players have not hit the ball as hard as they are capable of do- ing, and their work on the bases has been exceedingly slow at times. The team has also developed the bad trait of taking an aerial voyage in one in- ning and remaining in the lofty heights just long enough to allow the opposing team to make enough runs to win the game, The Tigers are more than holding their own, and Mike Fisher is to be congratulated in keeping his band to- gether, as he has succeeded in doing. It looked all along as though the Tigers were playing above their ability and that they could not maintain such a fast clip, but this theory has been dis- pelled since they got going and met and beat the best of them, and decisively at that. —_———— A whining religion wins none. 1 | i 11 o+ | | Dickinson was at Verdi some days since and took a number of large fish. | He was cleaned out three times by big fish. C. W. Johnson has returned from Castella, on the Upper Sacramento, and reports the water as normal. Good | baskets are being secured and the fish- | ing is improving steadily. W. W. Richards writes from Big Meadows that the water is still a trifle high, but it is going down at the rate | | of three inches per day. The fishing | is good and is improving. H. A. Greene of Monterey reports | that 2000 pounds of salmon were | taken in three days by professional boatmen. The fish averaged about eleven pounds. There are plenty of sardines and anchovies in the bay. While they remain the fishing will be good. E. A. Mocker is at Capitola and re- | ports the saxlmon fishing good. The fish are on the small order and run | elght and ten to the boat. ‘ Mr. and Mrs. George Salmon and Miss Mabel Nace are enjoying the fish- ing at Boulder Creek. T. C. Kierulff will go to Cisco when the fishing conditions are reported good in that picturesque district. W. F. Bogart is trying his luck on the salmon at Santa Cruz to-day. C. S. Wheeler is at his \country place on the McCloud. Pete McRae, Ed Schultz, W. C. Murdock, Jim Maynard and A. Lan- german are still at Webber Lake. G. H. Taubles and E. M.

It will be held on the courts of the Hotel Ra- | fael during the first week in July. The players who will participate are busy | conditioning themselves for the hard week's play. They are letting no op- portunity for practice pass and each day sees a number of players at both the California and the Golden Gate club courts. Percy Murdock and Will Allen will | probably be the strongest players en- tered in the tournament and in either one of them Champion Grant Smith would find a formidable opponent. George Bak not made up his mind whethe vill play or not. If he decides to take part he will be a dangerous competitor. Willlam B. Collier Jr..finds he will not be able to spare the time to take part. Among the other players who will compete are: George Janes, Herbert Lorng, Melville Long, Clarence Griffin, N. Ambrose, S. C. Gayness, Sidney Salisbury, Carl Gardner, A. H. Dra- bant, C. G. Knehm, A, E. Beyfuss and Merle Johnson. Of these Herbert Leng and Clarence the best. They are both young players who are im- proving rapidly and who have given a good account of themselves in past tournaments. The members of the Golden Gate held a meeting recently at the club house for the purpose of electing officers for the ensuing -year. The following were chosen: President, ‘Whitney; secretary and treasurer, J. M. Baker; handicapper, George L. Baker; directors, J. F. Brady, Charles J. Dunlap, George L. Baker, S. C. Gay- ness, N. H.

A new racing outrigged skifl is being built by Rogers for the Ariel Rowing Club and | will be ready a short time before the | championship regatta. The regular four-oared barge race at | the Celtic Union’s picnic at_El_Campo | was won by the Ariel crew, the South Ends being second and the Dolphins third. Another race, in which mixed crews of Ariel, South End and Dolphin | oarsmen took part, was rowed and was avon by a crew made up of Bd Scully and Ed Pallas of the South Ends, Ed ‘Wilson of the Ariels and W.

The first match between these | two old rivals was set down for May 1, | but was postponed from that date until | May 22. The Alameda Club won by a | score of 104 to 78, Stahl, Foster, Baugh | and Ward making the highest scores| for the winners. For the losers Bowly | (29 not out) made the best score. The| Pacific eleven to-morrow will be John Myers, captain; H. C. Casidy, D. B. Jamieson, A. W. Wilding, E. H. M. Lannotwe, Norman Logan, H. D. Bow-| ly, Dr. O. N. Taylor, Kenneth Read, T. W. Bewley and H. Storrs. The ab- sence of E. H. Wilkes' name from the | Mst is due to the fact that he hurt his foot while bowling last Sunday and | will not be able to play for a week or| two. The Alameda captain is experiencing some difficulty in making up his team, which will be selected from the follow- | ing: Harold Ward, S. M. Foster, W. H. McNaughton, G. 1. Baugh, W. W. Deer- ing, C. Banner, J. U. Buchanan, F. A. Stahl, F. J. Croll, F. J. Bennion, H. W. jrown, Leopold G. Vaz, H. Bird, V. Seebeck and W. E. R. Rooker. In the match played last Sunday !h»g San Francisco County Club showed | that in spite of the loss of Kortlang, | the absence of Sloman and the trans- fer of Wilkes to the Pacific Club it still | has an eleven superior to any of the teams. Though the Pacific captain tried seven bowlers only pne San Francisco| batsman (W. W. Deering) was bowled. H. Dixon was run out. When Richard- | son and Petersen came together the| bowling was mastered, and when Rich-| ardson had scored 103 runs not out and | Petersen 65 runs not out the inning was | called, the score standing at 185 runs| for two wickets. Of the Pacific bowl- ers E. H. Wilkes was the only one who captured a wicket, bowling sixty balls| for 22 runs. The others who tried their hands with the ball were Dr. O. Taylor, H. C. Casidy, H. D. Bowly, F. Lewin, E. H. M. Lannowe and John| yers. The Pacific batsmen made no stand | at all against the San Francisco Coun- ty bowlers, Roberts taking six wickets for 18 runs. Richardson three wickets ! for 20 runs and Petersen one wicket for | 2 runs. Eight of the batsmen were| clean bowled and two were caught. The ! scores were as follows: J.
