The Price Fullerton Brought When a

The San Jose sporting men viii attend
the coursing meeting al Ocean View to-day
in large numbers. A splendid programme
OF races has been arranged for the occasion,
and as there is spirited rivalry existing
between the owners of the dogs that will
represent this city and San jose the excite
ment attached to each course will be great
indeed. Considerable betting has been
done during the week, but as is generally
the case tie larger amount of money will
change hands on the grounds The San
Jose dogs are in fine fettle. and it Will be a
great disappointment TO the boys of the
Garden City if their dogs fail to win ma
1oTlty of the events they will race for.
An enthusiast is DESTROYS Of knowing the
price paid by Colonel North for his famous

CAUGHT BY A KODAK.
Captain WiItse of the Navy Outwitted
by Newspaper Correspondent.
Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.


There was a time not long ago when the
getting OF a photograph of Captain Wiltse,
of the United States steamer Boston, was q
very difficult not to say impossible thing
that is, when the photograph was intended
for publication. But that time has passed.
and this is the reason why. Wltse, as
every body who has read of the recent polti-
cal troubles in Hawaii knows, commanded
the blue jackets who went ashore ~ back
up Minister Stevens. Well, before that
epoch in the Islands history, Witse was
accustomed to tell how easy 1t would be for
him to seiZa the islands backed up as he
was by $4,000 00 Of people.
An American newspaper correspondent
who believes that such talk better suited to
British and German naval officers than to
Americans, determined to send a sketch of
him to his paper. But Wiltse refused TO
give him photograph. The next afternoon,
while WiltSe. arrayed in pair Of red, white
and blue tights. was enjoying his bath in
the surf, he heard a click. Looking around
he saw boy with box under his arm. He
approached the youth. who held the box in
front of him. and Wiitse heard another
click.
"What have you got there?" he asked,

And at the same time he walked toward

backed off, increasing his pace to keep out
of the captains reach. at the same time

captain, at last tired out with running about
the beach, went to his bathh0use and The
boy retired. That evening he called on the
correspondent and asked him what he in

taken of him.

respondent replied.

written for THE MORNING CALL.

Early one morning just after the storm
last month a nOrthbound freight train
pulled into Goshen. 1t was running on
wild time" on account-of the washout near
Bakersfield, and not many people were
standing around the station. But those
who were saw n strange sight.
Tbs train had no sooner stopped than a
man jumped from car and ran rapidly
toward the station, and an instant later a
lithe-loOking animal of some kind jumped
out after him and started in pursuit.
Dawn was just breaking, but all the by
ISLANDERS could see that it was some fero-
ei0us beast that intended TO make a meal OF
the man. Some ran into the station. but
others ran to the mans assistance, and by
throwing a few heavy objects and firing
couple of shots al it made the animal change
its mind about having breakfast.
1t growled a few times. and then seeing
it would have no show in the fight ran into
a small tule marsh near the track. 1t came

Shores.
Although the season for the shooting of
small game has been under lock and key, so
TO speak, for some time, yet there are
number of hunters who. for some weeks
past, have been enjoying good sport shoot
ing curews along tho shores OF the bay.
On the Alameda marshes the crack Of the
breech-loader is heard quite frequently, and
particularly on Sundays, when small army
of gunners line along the beach watching
an opportunity to blaze away at the long
billed foreigners as they fly overhead.
The Sausalito shore is also a favOrlte
place for some hunters who enscOnce them
selves behind heaps of drift wood within
close range of the mud flats. where the birds
feed at low tide.
In answer to several queries sportsmen
OF forgettul minds should stick the follow
lug, concerning the game law, in their hats
for future reference:
Section 626 OF the game law reads that
every person vino, In the State of Calf0r-
MIA, shall, within the two years next ex-
cept from September 1 to October 10 in each
year. hunt, pursue, take, kill or destroy any
male deer, elk, antelope. mountain sheep or
buck shall be guilty OF m sdemeanor
Female deer are protected at all months of
the year, as are also spotted fawns.
H. ID. Mcclure, the newly appointed State
fish and game warden of Oregon, has
already started in to make things interest
Ing in the way of teaching some people that
the game laws must be Observed He has
brought suit against Portland cold-storage
establishment for possession of frozen
salmon In the close season, during which
