BAY CITY BREEZES.
The Champion ShOOters-Chtnese
Arrivals and Departures.


SAN Francisco, August 3.-The con-
test for positions on the team to repre-
sent the Department of California at the
shooting contest at Vancouver on Mon
day, August 18th, was brought to close
at the Presidio to-day. 1t was the fourth
days trial, and the shooting was confined
to skirmish craftsmanship. Corporal
Christian Brian, Of Troop A, Second
Cavalry made the unprecedented score OF
104 and pulled away from all other COM
petitors. This score added to his other
scores gave him a total of 523, and places
the Corporal at the head of the team.
He also wins the Department gold med
al and Department skirmish silver med
al. The team which was selected to-day
consists OF twelve men and they will
be accompanied by two alternates whose
duty will be to fill any vacancy which
may occurr through death or sickness.
The members of the team will leave the
Preside on Friday next for Vancouver,
where they will meet the teams from De-
partments of the Columbia and Arizona.
These thirty-six men will then compete
for places in the team which will meet at
Fort Niagara. AS there are but five to
be selected it is expected that the con-
test at Vancouver will be very interest
ing one.
CHINESE ARRIVALS AND DEPARTURES.
Collector Hager has compiled state
ment Of arrivals and departures of Chi
nese at this port since 1852, showing that
the grand total of arrivals for thirty
seven years has been 366, ,636, with
179, ,O95 departures. The number of Chi
nese leaving this port in 1887 was about
two thousand less than in 1886, while
the arrivals on the other hand show
an increase of nearly five thou
sand over 1886. Up to the pres
ent date there have been 1922
arrivals during this quarter and ,731 de-
partures. This does not take into ac-
count the number smuggled over the
border from British America, nor the ar
rivals from New York and other States.
II is estimated that over 100000 Chinese
are in the State.
EARLY WINE GRAPES.
The San Francisco Railroad Company
will try the experiment of shipping early
Zinfandel wine grapes from its Yolo
county vineyards this. year for use by
Portuguese and Italians in this city, who
make their own wines. They claim
that their vintage will be near
ly two months earlier than that
Of sonoma and Napa Counties, and as no
country wine-makers will be prepared to
handle their grapes at the early period
at which they will ripen, they must ship
them to this city to be used in the ex-
perimental way proposed. The first
shipment of eighteen tons will be
brought down in a day or two.
