son Always Ready.

The Alamedas got scare yesterday in
their match against the CALIFORNIA;. OF
course they did not expect to be defeated
and they were not. but the game proved
sufficiently exciting to cause the champion
team to exert every nerve in the cause of
victory.
Arson won the toss on behalf of the
CALIFORNIA; and elected to put his men in.
Lloyd Eaton and Arson had the pleasure
of occupying the wickets first to the bowl
ing of Sloman and young Ward. No one
expected to get Arson out until he bad
made respectable number of runs, and
the captain of the CALIFORNIA; justified ex-
pectations by playing remarkably pretty
inning for AZ runs. Heartfelt, Guild and
Berry made some sort of a stand, and a
Juvenile wonder was sprung in the person
of little Harry Bird. who made II. mostly
from by balls delivered by young Ward.
In the end the inning closed for $50. n
sufficiently formidable total to cause the
Alameda batsmen to look to their laurels.
Hogue won the match for Alameda, un-
doubtedy. His inning of II was master
piece. He seemed to beat all kinds of
bowling with ease, and the s0rest time OF
the whole match TO him was when Arson
bowled him with lob. Sloman played
well for %, and young Ward hit merrily
around the field for 33. The Alamedas
scored 16S thus winning the match by 38
runs. Following are the full scores:

yet it is hard to believe that an eleven of
fair all-rnnnd cricketers such as the
Pacifics should only manage to make SO as

name of Robertson and the remembrance
Of his deeds strike terror into the hearts of

in Position.

A visitor to Falcon avenue. near the Cor

Joost electric road were week ago torn
up foTcibly by the order of the Mayor,
would hardly dream that there had been
so much excitement and trouble In the
neigh borhood over the laying of the spur
track put down by Joost and the railroad.
Ties, rails and everything connected with
the electric roadbed has again been placed
in line as formerly and the tracks are
down in the Identical spot as when re-
moved by the Street Superintendent a
week ago.
Ties and rails are distributed along the
entire rigfrt-of-way to Ashbury and Fred

the laying of the roadbed.
On Eagle street, near Falcon avenue, a
carh0use one story in height and 150x150

exhibited better craftsmanship than in
the final shot, which was to count for thu
prizes.
This was particularly noticeable in the
case of Mrs. Adolph Strecker, whose hus-
band is one of the champions Of the world.
During her first two shots she made 20 and
10, respectively. out of %. but when it
came to the final, which counted, she only
scored Is.

Hosta was finally declared the winner.

Local Shippers Anxious
for a Contest.
The Rather, Bonita and Matte T
Dyer Bent Upon Arranging
Trial of Speed.

The International contest In progress
this week between the Vigilant and the
Valkyrie has aroused in San Francisco a
racing split which will probably result In
trials of speed over an ocean course be-
tween three fast schooners. Captain Fred
Nielsen, master and managing owner of
the schooner Rather, thinks be has the
fastest craft in this port. She was built
in Gloucester. Mass, made fine time early
this year to the Japan sealing grounds
and arrived here for the first time about
five weeks ago.
The pilots are firmly of the opinion that
the pilot boat Bonita can show her heels
to any craft of similar build in the Pacific
Coast waters. Of course she cannot 60
into a race SO long as she is ia commission
as a pilot-boat, but there would be little
trouble in having her laid up for week or
two. The pilots are more than anxious. to
race the Ra ttler. She is sc feet long while
the Bonita measures 2 feet more. Both
are % feet beam.
Captain Charles Mockler of the Matte
T. Dyer disputes with the pilots and with
Captain Nielsen OH the question of which
has the fastest sailer, and he is anxious to
make the game tbree-handed with every
confidence of success.
Unfortunately there Is no cup to race
for, but stake which owners Of the three
schooners express Willingness to put up

Fine Shooting at Shell Mound Park
YESTERDAY.

The members of the Pistol and Rifle
Club held one Of their shoots yesterday at
the Shell Mound Park ranges. Some very
excellent work was done, as will be seen
by the score.
This club uses the standard American
target at fifty yards. with the S-inch bulls
eye for pistol shooting. and 200 yards with
the 11.inch bulseye for rifle shooting. The
1O-ring is 5 36-1O0 inches in diameter, the
9.ring is about inches. and the String Is
the regular Creedmoor S.inch bullseye. It
has been adopted here because of its gen.
eral use in the East.

opened to-day for both rife and pistol.
Some very fine shooting vas done with the

an xious to participate in the ladies' sport.
From the time the shoot opened until the
close. late in the aftern Don, the lady rela-
tives of members of the club manifested
an extra ordinary interest in the shoot.
Each con testant watched the other closely
and remained to see that no advantage
was given and that the rules were closely
folio wed.
The scores made by the ladies were sur
prising to their better halves, who were
around expecting to jest their wives. but
when they saw the good scores made they
began to act as if the la ugh was on them.
When the sh DOT began the ladies were
assigned TO the honorary target, the rule
established being that each lady should
have two practice shots in order TO be-
come accustomed to the gun and range.
and then take third shot, which was to
connt for the various prizes offered.
The ladies were allowed to rest their
guns in shooting, and when the club MEN,
beers stared at the scores afterward they
said that even the ladies hereafter would
have to hold the heavy rifles straight from
the shoulder.
During the progress OF the shoot there
were a number of rifle-shooters at the
range going through their monthly shoots
and they occasionally stopped to witness
the performance of their lady rivals. ex-
pressing great admiration at the result.
While the shoot was in progress Philo
Jacoby said: why never thought there
would be such enthusiasm and interest In
this thing. Look how well they shoot.
Why, when We leave our homes TO defend
our country we can know that there is
somebody behind to protect them"
The ladies did not seem TO require much
instruction from their husbands how to
manipulate the rifles and went to the range
with the greatest confidence. One thing
