The morning call., 1891-05-24

Mcintyre, who is considered the champion
Joker of the grounds, has been contemplate
Ing for months a scheme by which he hoped
to "get a move on" Elliott, and few days
ago sent word to the latter that he had re-
ceived a handsome pair of exercising hoes
from the East that would fit him to perfec-
ton.
Elliott thanked Peter for his kind remem-
brance and said that he would try them on
the first opportunity offered. On Sunday
large gathering of spTinters, long-distance
runners, walkers, etc, was on hand to see
Elliott slip on the No IFS, which happened
to fit the athletic Handicapped to perfection.
''They are dandies, Mae" remarked Ell
lott as the latter nimbly sprang from his
dreSsing-room in the direction of the cinder
path. The boys chuckled and suppressed
their laughter as best they could until the
wearer of the spiked shoes had sprinted out
of hearing distance. Elliott had not gone,
however, more than one lap of tie track
when be spTang into the air, emitting an
athletic warwho0p that even caused the
buifalOeS in the park to switch their tails in
anticipation OF an Indian raid.
Mcintyre sneaked out the back door and
took the first train for the city, while Ell
llotps associates ran TO his immediate as
siStance. After thorough examination Of
the pumps 1t was found that the spikes OF
both shoes were headleSs, and only thin
sole prevented their sharp points from en-
teTing the foot when first fitted on. The
weight of the muscular athlete bounding
over the cinderS soon forced the spikes
through their wafer covering, and the re-
suit stopped suddenly short the speed OF
man who would have probably broken a
Coast record had it not been for McIntyre's
practical Joke.

Company A of the Fifth Infantry will
shoot for medals at Shell Mound to-day.
The Germania Rife Club will hold its
monthly medal shoot to-day at Harb0r
View.
The California Schuetzen Club team will
practice on Sunday at the California
SchuetZen Club Park range. High scores
are expected to be made.
At the second competition of the Zettler
Rife Club at Cypress Hill, on May 18th,
DOrleT made 1879 rings In seven strings Of
ten shots each, an average OF % 55-100 rings.
The Second Artillery Regiment will hold
its monthly medal shoot at Shell Mound to-
day. Companies G and ID will also hold
their medal shoot at the same time and
place. The usual time of the regiment to
shoot Is on the last Sunday Of each month
but the programme has been changed on
this occasion as SOIue of the members in
tend going into camp back of West Oak
land on Saturday, Immediately after the
parade.
At the great shooting festival of the Har-
lem Rife Club held at Uuion Hill SchuetLen
Park, New jersey, William Hays of New
ark was high on the second day with the
following five scores on the ring target g

Company b, Third Infantry will hold its
medal shoot in camp at Tamalpais Villa to-
day. This company and also Company +
and field music of the regiment left the city
last evening to enjoy change of air and
have a good time for two days in the cOun-
try. The medal shoot will be a novel one,
as most of the members have never before
shot in the open at an improvi5et target 1t
is to be hoped the scores will be good ones,
that they NAV lead to the encouragement Of
this kind of practice with the rifle.

The Occidental Club Awaiting the Winter
Season.
The Occidental Coursing Club hopes to
enjoy a successful coursing season this
coming winter. 1t eau rest assured, how
ever, that unless the country sportsmen
who represent the club will give more atten-
ton 20 business matters it will have some
difficulty TO 20 along smoothly.
IL is one OF the UnaccOuntable things that
some men, who at business meetings appear
10 be fairly running over with enthusiasm
for the sport, forget 10 answer club letters
that make mention Of monthly dues or
assessments. The sooner the club discards
the talking nOH-paYihg members the better.
a meeting Of the National GreVhO
Club was held at the Office OF George Shep-
pard Page, 90 Wall street, New York, on
May 9th. The only business OF Importance
before the meeting was the reception from
the Committee on Rules Of draft of the
cOursing rules, which will be sent to the
before adoption.
An Eastern exchange saws that at
largely attended meeting of the Irish Game
Protective Association, held at Dublin, a
resolution was passed that the Secretary
invite the several Grand Juries Of ireland
to request the Lord Lieutenant TO alter the
existing close season for hares in Ireland
and to order that the close season shall COM
mence On March 3lst and terminate on Au-
gust 18th of each year. The opinion of the
meeting was that the close season should
be the same in all counties. AS Irish hares
have been imported in this country this ac-
ton may affect inclosed coursing meetings
III the East during the close season.

The report that w. II. Henry of the Uni

An Action to Dissolve the Changers
Business Association.
Attorney General Hart has, upon COM
plant of Jane NJ. Clark Of Alameda County.
instituted proceedings in the Superior Court
to have the Changers Business Association
of this city dissolved aud fined 5000 for
usurping and exercising a franchise TO which
it had no legal right.
The action is also brought for the purpose
of having the court restrain the association
from removing Mrs Clark and her family
from the land they occupy, and which was
seized aud sold by the association to fore
close a mortgage held by it upon the prop
erty.
Mrs. Clark, through her attorney and the
Attorney General, on behalf of the people
of the State of California, alleges that no
powers were given the Changers Associa-
ton in the articles of incorporation to deal
in real estate, but that in foreclosing on her
property and purchasing 1t at Sheriff's sale
it exceeded its corporate authority.

DEMAGNETIz ATIoN-C. F. A, Fairwater,
Wash. Permanent horseshoe magnets are
subject to demagnetizing force, and to pre-
serve the permanency 1t is essential to avoid
extreme changes of temperature and shocks.
This is attained in a horseshoe magnet by
simply laying piece of soft iron called the
keeper, across the poles, which being done
the induced magnetism reacts on the mag
nets and diminshes the demagnetizng force,
and the action of shocks then ceases to de-
stroy the permanent magnetism and may
even increase it.
