Hall in e Justices’ Court to recover a ama!l! sim of mon: 2lleged to be due. A'few weeks ago Hall's default was entered, and in the Justices' Court judgment was entered against him. Hall applied to the Superior Court to vacate the judg- ment on the ground that after a lapse of eight years the court had ne right to enter the default, or. in fact, try the case at all. In a decision handed down yesterday Judge Hebbard upheld this contention and ordered that the judgment be vacated and the proceed- ings dismissed. ————————— For that drowsy, tired feeling and loss of appetite there is nothing as good as Lash’s Kidney and Liver Bitters. hd Holidays | Elaborate Banquet CLEVE > '* ; ‘,_/—' > 4 REST OF JOCKEYS ARE SPORTI JOCKEYS DLE_FR RACE TRAC WWHO o BIRDS S BEFORE STORM ATTER {Sportsmen Expeet Good Duck and Quail Shooting on| | the Preserves To-Morrow [ EEF ST What is pronounced the greatest flight of ducks ever seen on the fa- mous & un marsh was that stirred up by Thursday’s storm. Unfortunately | for the clybmen owning preserves there it came on an off day, the mid- week shooting being imited to | Wednesday by common consent. The storm demonstrated to the sat- istaction of the sportsmen that thé ducks are here in countless thousands and that all that is required ther to make the shooting of class. The prospects are d excellent for sport to-mor- conside row. The rain has also brought joy to the men who enjoy a day on the upland |after quail. These great game birds will now come out of the heavy brush into the open, where they will test the |skill of the gunmen by their _rapia flight. / | There will be unusually heavy tides lon the bay to-day, to-morrow and {Monday. This water will get over the low levees and will form much needed ponds on s of the preserves. The preserve of the Empire Gun Club in Mo rey County is affording [excellent sport. Last Sunday 170 | ducks were bagged by five members on one slough. limit allowed by law. J. B. Hauer di- vided .his time between the ducks and the quall, securing twenty-three of the former and twenty-two of the latter. Con Roman killed twenty-one ducks end twenty-four guail Jack A. Conmell, the former baseball umpire, is now a Deputy Fish Com- missioner. The aggressiveness he de- veloped handiing refractory baseball players stands by him when he deals with violators of the game laws. Pos- | sibly the worst of these are the men | who are netting ducks and for whom a sharp lookout is being kept. Although conditions seemed favor- able for duck shooting last ~ Sunday the day proved almost a blank for everybody. Phil Bekeart and W. J. Golcher shot over the Family Club pre- i serve and secured a joint bag of sey- enteen. The members of the Colma Gun Club jare having the best sport in years, widgeon and sprig being unusually plentiful. Up at Werners station re- cently six men bagged 276 ducks. Of these 100 were mallard and 100 teal, the balance being sprig and widgeon.

Elks. Thomas W. Hickey, W. M. Ab- bott, E. C. Clark, James Manning and | H. C. Wilber of the entertainment com- mittee of the Elks have prepared a “nautical jinks” for the delectation of their friends. Though it is now near the end of Noygmber, abundant signs of the month preceding will be in evi- dence. While the white-winged pleasure fleets of the San Francisco, Corjnthian and California Yacht clubs are'lald up safely in winter quarters, the members lightly turn their minds to thought of flag officers and directors for the com- ing season. Ex-Commodore H. D. Hawks, Charles L. Barrett and Dan Everett, the nominating committee ap- pointed to prepare the regular ticket for the election in January, have posted the following names at the clubhouse on Valentine’s 1sland: For Commodore, John C. Brickell, now vice commodore and owner of the sloop Genesta; for vice commedeore, Frank Stone, owner of the sloop Presto and skipper of’ the racer “Corinthian™; for port ceptain, John H. Keefe, incumbent; for treas- urer, ex-Commodore Artaur M. String- | er, owner of the training sloop Freda and incumbent; for secretary, Walter | H. Crowell; for directors, the foregoing and J. H. Sharpe, owner of the sloop Harpoon, and Stewart Middlemas. & Thomas J. Kavanagh, Douglas Ers- kine ahd Charles Gerlach, none of l’whom is a yacht-owner, are nominees for the regatta committee. The annual meeting and election will be held on Wednesday, January 31, 1906. The San Francisco Yacht Club will | hold a meeting about the middle of January to elect a nominating commit- tee of three to make up the list of names to be presented as the regular ticket at the annual meeting and elec- tion of officers in February. It is said that Commodore W. G. Morrow, who has heid the office for two years, does not desire re-election. ————— Rider Injured in Hunting Field. HEMPSTEAD, L. L, Nov. 24 —Robert F. Potter, one of the best known hunt- ing men of the Westchester Club, came a cropper in the fox hunt of the Meadowbrook Club yesterday that may have serious results. He was thrown with great force and lay for a time junconscious. An examination showed he had’ broken his collar-bone and haa recelved other severe injuries. He was removed to a hospital. Mr. Potter.is a son of the late Edward T. Potter and & nephew of Bishop Potter.

Knapp is under con- tract to ride for the stable of Jennln!!| & Co., and whether on a 4 to 5 favorite; or an outsider in the betting, his mounts never lack support.’ Little Radtke is an- other rider. whose clever work in the| saddle quickly caught on with specula-, tors. He is alert at the post and when mounted on a horse possessing a chance | can be depended on to give an account of himself at the finish. Willie Da\‘l!i has no superfor on a free running horse, | and is equally at home on one that re-| quires some persuasion. Willie has’ pi- loted the black horse San Nicolas in all of his races this season at Oakland, andl it must be admitted his work showed pol ish and skill 4 Emmett Loague was the king pin rider of the amer bush circuit, and he ap- pears to be holding his own at Oak- land. Emmett is not a whip rider, but exer- | cises good judgment throughout a race and usually leaves the barrier in a hurry. E. Walsh came here ‘with the Williams stable. He ranks with the best, but un- fortunately incurred tlie displeasure of Jake Holtman and was given a ten day vacation on the ground. . \ —_———————— Cumberland Park Results.

The game has its supporters as well as its opponents and the outcome is still in doubt. If coursing ceases in San Mateo County Manager O'Shea of Ingleside Park will endeavor to run-threc days each week to take up all the greyhounds offercd for competition. This will relieve the strain on_the owners ‘of large kennels. Frank 8. McComb, at one time one of the most widely known coursing men in California, died from an attack of pneumonia some days since at his home | in Mountain View. He owned the great black greyhound Royal Flush, winner of four consecutive stakes, which is probably a world’s record in coursing. He also owned Little Sister, another great performer. For the second time in recent years there is a mild epidemic among the greyhounds at Colma. There have been no deaths, but it has thrown a lot of the dogs out of training. James Sweeney’'s Rocked Asleep is among the worst sufferers. The card at Union Park on Sunday will be' made up of one stake.
