lish an association upon nearly the same
lines as those of the old California Rifle
Association, except that the regiments and
brigades will haye more complete repre-
sentation. Suggestions have been made
that the association should consist of the
rifle practice inspectors of each brigade
and the inspector of the small arms prac-
tlce in the various regiments. This plan
would give every regiment a competent
representative, and the brigades would
also be looked out for by a staff officer
from each. From the number of brigade
and regimental representatives selected
the president and directors will be after
ward appointed.
The proposed rifle association may very
probably begin operations within few
weeks. The sentiment is strongly favorable
toward such an organization, and there
are numerous reasons to believe that it
will be quite as much success as the old
association, which lasted from 1871 until
the early SOS. Immediately after its or
ganization the association will arrange for
competitive matches with rifle and re-
volver and will offer trophies for superior
craftsmanship. From the large number
of men who are expected to take vigor-
Gus interest in the range work team will
very probably be selected to participate in

thing is certain, that two blocks away, over
all the noise of cable cars and the traffic on

tinctly as though it were only few feet off.
The trumpet is made of paper, and is in
the shape of funnel. There is no
mechanism connected with it, and its
sound-carrying qualities seem to be derived
from its shape. Should it prove to be the
success expected of it the tugboat company
will place one on each of its steamers and
another at the Point Lobos signal-station.
Then, when the tugs are entering or leav-
ing port, they can be to told exactly what
to do.
GA tug may be coming in from sea-" said
Captain Hawley, land at the same time
there may be ship away out near the
Farallones. With one of the trumpet
the outlook at Point Lobos could easily in
form the captain of the tug where the ship
was and direct him what to do. If the
captain bad any news to send ashore he
could do it with his trumpet, and SO all
delay would be obviated."
Superintendent Hug OF the Oceanic
Steamship Company and Superintendent
Hawley of the Spreckels TowbOat Company
had fun with the trumpet before it was
placed on the Fearless. few days ago a
lady was passing up Market street, and
Hug, who was in a building on the other
trumpet. and in conversational tone
said: "Madam, you have dropped your
handkerchief. The woman stopped in
stantly, looked all around, and seeing no
one near and finding her handkerchief in
her pocket, walked on pondering.
Madam your skirt is coming off," con-
tinued Hug, and the woman made fran
tic attempt to look over her shoulder to
see what hook or eye had given out. Find
ing everything was all right with her dress
and that there was no one In sight she en-
tered a drugstore and purchased seda-
tive.
On the Fearless yesterday Captain Glenn
Randall gave an exhibition OF what the
trumpet could do. His steamer was lying
at the foot of Folsom street, and the tug
Alert was at the bulkhead.
The COOK Of the latter was at the galley
door and the CAPTAIN said: "Let US hail
him." In his ordinary voice he said ooh,
cookI" The cook dropped his work and
started forward. There was no one about
and in a few minutes he returned to the
galley.
Randall repeated: "Oh, cook! Why
don't you come forward when l call you ?'
Again the cook dropped his work and
started forward. On his way he was or
dereG into the pilot-house, and on finding
no one there he was more bewildered than
ever.
"Let me try it, captain" said the re-
porter, who was standing by. The trum-
pet was handed over and directed toward
scow schooner that was passing up the
bay.
''Down jib" was spoken in an authori-
tative tone and down came the sheet, while
the skipper, who was at the helm, cursed
and swore like trooper at the unfortu-
nate man who had obeyed the order.
In the bay and during quiet day the
trumpet is success, but it remains to be

ion that it will be most useful in foggy
weather and in signaling from Point Lobos

The guns OF the dynamite battery on

early in December. In compliance with
orders from Washington the board ap-

cia November 2l, but at that time Major
William H. Heuer was in Sacramento.
The board will convene again December 4.
1t is given out that everything will be

ready for action. During the period of
testing dynamite will be exploded, but be-

RELIANCE PLAYERS.
Several More Stanford Men to Join in
Time for the Football Game
With Butte

The Reliance team promises to be greatly
strengthened before its return match with
the Butte eleven, to be played in this City
December 81. Several Stanford PLAYERS
are expected to join the Oakland club in
time to participate in the contest with the
husky giants from Montana.
Paul Downing, who acted as umpire in
the Reliance Olympic game Saturday,
played on the Stanford Varsity for four
years and was captain last season. Re-
marking upon the college players in the
fact that Porter, Kingtun and Nahl of the
Olympic team were Berkeley men, while
Mcmillan, Burnett, Hall and Bunker of
Reliance were Stanford men. he added ::
"And Reliance will have several more
Palo Alto men in time for the game with
Butte. | do not wish to say now who they
are, but some of the fellows are going to
Join the Reliance Club before Decemb ber21.
II came down from Washington to help
the Stanford men little, and intend to
stay down here until the football season is
over"
There is strong probability that Down
ing himself will be one of the nun ber to
join the Reliance; for an opportunity to
play football is almost irresistible to q
veteran so recently prominent gridiTon
character.
With Walton and most likely with Har-
reIson, in addition to the actual Stanford
students that may enter the Reliance
ranks, Butte will have to meet an eleven
nominally Reliance but practically pow
erful aggregation made up of the best of
the Oakland veterans. together with some
strong college material.

tMen are becoming weaker" So says the

Our forefathers were at one time able to stand

The men of to-day use too much tobacco.
They smoke the cheap, nasty cigarettes, which

has done more good for men than all the moral

appear manly and vigorous, cease smoking
your cigarettes and use the great Cupidene.
If you are not stronger and more vigorous
after using one box of Cupidene the sun will
