Once year the members OF Joe Hooker
Post No. IL, G. A. R., turn out for good
time and turn at the targets. The at
tendance yesterday was not large, but the
old comrades enjoyed themselves hugely.
They shot with the old-time 50-caliber
muskets of quarter of century ago.
These weapons go off with roar like
Howitzer and they kick at both ends and
at the middle at the same time. The shoot
ing was for a medal, which was won by
Comrade Kamp of Alameda. Captain
Seibe presented a turkey to the second
best shot, which was won by Comrade
Hamlin. This American bird will be de-
voured at banquet that will be held by
the post on Thanksgiving. The old veterans
made the following scores:

FOR THE STATE MEDALS,
Sharpshooting at Shell Mound
for the California Deco
ratiOnS.
Companies Of the First and Fifth
and the Joe Hooker Post
at the Targets.

A part of the rifle contest for State med
ais was shot yesterday by several COM
panies of the First and Fifth regiments at
Shell Mound Park. The scores made were
up to the average, although both light and
wind were bad for target work. The mill
tia boys object to shooting on weekdays,
but as there was so much complaint on the
part of the church people against Sunday
shooting the powers that be made it COM
pulsory for all State shooting to be done
during the week. None Of the companies
were fully represented at the practice yes
terday, as many are attending the Native
Son festivities at Sacramento. These will
have to shoot later. On this account all OF the
medal-winners' names could not be OBJ
tanned. AS will be remembered those who
make 60 per cent at the two trials earn the
State bronze medals, those who make so per
cent the silver medals and the 90-per-cent
men carry off the gold medals. There will
be several gold and many silver medals
distributed this year.
Colonel j. S. Kellogg was the only one
on the retired list who shot. HIS scores
were made on the pistol range. Yester-
day he made 43 points and the time be-
fore AZ, which wins for him the gold bar.
Company B of the First, better known
as the City Guard, turned out strong and
made the following scores:
Sergeant Rounds Al. Sergeant Taylor 80,

Training a Locomotive.

1t may not be generally known that loco
motives intended for express trains require
as much training, in their way, for fast
running as do race horses The Pennsyl-
vanla Railroad Company builds it's own
engines and those built for express trains
are known as class P. They are very large
and built with slight variations after the
pattern of the big English engine imported
into this country several years ago, and
which at that time was curiosity in its
way. When one of these big engine is
taken out of the shops to be placed on
the road, instead of putting it to the
work it is intended for at once it
is run for two or three weeks
on some one of the local branches, in order
to train it. SO to speak, for faster running.
By this means all the bearings and iour-
nails connected with the running-gear be-
come settled to their work: for, should
anything about the new machine not work
harmoniously, there is ample time to adj
just the defect. Usually the new engine
proves troublesome on account of its pro-
pensity to make fast time, and at al
most every station the train is found to be
little ahead of schedule time, and must
wait for from ten seconds to minute. No
100 of Glass P was running yesterday on
the Trenton accommodation train, but will
soon be flying over the road from Broad
street station to New York and return, at
the rate, in many places, of mile min

LAUNCH OF THE KODIAK,
A Fine Addition to the Craft of
OakIand'S Canoe
Club.
Two WelI-KnoWn Yachtsmen De-
signed the Model of the
New Canoe.
OAKLAND OFFICE SAN Francisco CALI
9O8 Broadway, Sept. 9.

908 Broadway, Sept. 9.
The pretty cruising canoe that has been
built by w. w. Blow, ex-commodore of the
Oakland Canoe Club, was successfully
launched this afternoon in the presence of
large crowd. The canoe has been built
according to ideas that Mr.. Blow has
gained during long experience with
canoes, and he has also been assisted by
the well-known yachtsman Charles g.
Yale. The result is one of the prett:est
craft ever seen on the estuary.
The launch took place in Sessions Basin,
and as the new boat left the ways she was
christened Kodiak by Miss M. V. Blow, a
daughter of the owner. The launch was
perfect, and as the boat took the water a
bottle of champagne was CALAMITY broken
against her bow by the fair sponsor.
Professor Frank Soule, Professor Bowen
of Berkeley, Mr.. Blow and Charles G.
Yale made humorous speeches, the nautI-
cal flavor of Mr.. Blows name affording
ample scope for witticisms.
After the launch champagne lunch was
served to the members of the Oakland
Canoe Club in the clubhouse. The young
ladies acted as mattresses, and the interior
was prettily decorated.
After the luncheon there were several
informal races and a swimming match.
The kodiak" was put under sail, and
proved that she was all that her owner
claims. She is neatly fitted out, and will
be used when the commodore takes his an
nual cruise UP the Sacramento River.

LATEST BERKELEY ITEMS,
Students at the University De-
sire to Enlarge the Athletic
Grounds.
The Committee on Grounds From
the Board of Regents Inspect
the Proposed Site.

BERKELEY, CAL, Sept. "a commit
tee from the board of university regents,
consisting of Hon. ]. West Martin, Gen
eral J. F. Houghton and Colonel G. F.
Croker, visited Berkeley to-day, and in
company with President kellogg and
Professor Clapp, the faculty representa-
tive of the student athletic committee,
looked over the proposed site for the new
athletic field on the campus. 1t is the de-
sire of the student body TO have better
facilities for the various kinds of athletic
sports, and in order to do this in the man
ner wished, a request has been made of
the board of regents to grant them the use
of strip of land 100 feet wide on
the east side of the present running
track, and extending throughout its length
If the request is complied with work will
at once be commenced on the construction
of a new three laps to the mile cinder path
football field and baseball diamond, the
whole to be inclosed within a high board
fence. The committee expressed kindly
feeling toward the project. Professor
Clapp said:
1t has been long cherished desire on the
part of those interested in college athletics to
have an Enclosed field of their own in which
the various contests can be held, and after
careful consideration of the project by the fac
ulty committee on supervision OF student ath-
letics consisting of Professors Bacon. Edwards
and myself, and also by the athletic executive
committee, 1t was decided to make a request
Tor the piece OF ground mentioned. 1t will be
an ideal spot for athletic field, on account
OF its situation with reference TO other parts of
the campus, its comparative smoothness, and
also on account of the many shade trees which
surround it.
The entire cost of grading, building the
fence and erecting suitable grandstand will
be about $500. A tasteful fence will be put
up, and around it trees and vines will be
planted, so as TO relieve the utter barrenness o.
menced on laying out the field, yet we do not
expect to hold the great game with Stanford
on 1t this year. 1t is intended that some OF the
big games in future will be played here, since
by SO doing the demoralizing effects attendant
upon the holding of intercollegiate games in
San Francisco will be done away with STAN
ford, as / am told, IS working to the same end,
and they, too, expect to soon have an inclosed
field of their own. 1t is intended to erect a
stone wall at some future time in place of the
wooden fence, after the manner of Yale and
Pennsylvania; but that will only come with
time.
Herbert Lang, manager of the football
team, is very enthusiastic over the plan,
and feels confident that the receipts taken
IN at the gate will soon pay for the outlay
made In fitting up the grounds.
The matter will be brought up at the
meeting of the regents tomorrow after
noon, and If the proposition is favorably
passed upon the football field will be put
into condition at once, so as to be ready for
the tall practice games.

STRUCK An ELECTRIC CAR,
Shade Trees Partly Caused an
Accident That May
Prove Fatal.
Three Men in a Buggy Seriously
Injured by Col
lSion.
OAKLAND OFFICE SAN Francisco CALL, |

90S Broadway, Sept. 8.
A collision between an electrician and
buggy occurred this afternoon by which
three people nearly lost their lives. One
Is not expected 10 live. The accident took
place at Tenth and Jefferson streets, and
the injured people are r. 2. Valentine,
manager of the Alameda Electric Light
and Motor Company; Paul Seller, propri-
etor of the Electrical Works of San Fran
cisco, and G. A. Wiese, superintendent of
the Fire-Alarm and Electric Light Com
pany. X. 2. Valentines life is despaired Of
The three gentlemen had been visiting
at the house of Mr.. Seller at GIG Eighth
street, and left the house in light bust
ness wagon for the purpose of driving Mr..
Valentine to his home on Oak street. The
horse was rather spirited animal and was
being driven by Mr.. Wiese. The corner of
the street at Tenth and Jefferson is some
what obscured by the dropping branches of
a line of trees, so that any one approaching
from Tenth street cannot see along Jeffer-
son. Just as the corner was turned the
driver noticed a car of the Alameda Elec-
trio line approaching.
According to Mr.. Wiese, he calculated
that there was time to get across the track
IN advance of the car. A moment later,
seeing the distance could not be made he
attempted to get out of the way, but was
struck by the car while on the track All
three occupants were thrown violently to
the ground.
Mr.. Valentine was severely in iured and is
now at the Receiving Hospital suffering
from conclusion of the brain, and is not e1-
pected to survive his injuries. Mr.. Seller
was dragged out from under the car quite
badly hurt That he was not killed is a
miracle. His injuries are on the head and
shoulders, both of which are badly bruised
and lacerated. Mr.. Wiese was the least
hurt. He sustained an injury to his right
hip and several smaller bruises.
The frightened horse dragged the demol-
ished buggy four blocks to Washington
and Eighth, where it was stopped.
Mr.. Valentine was unconscious all to-
night. He has a wife and four children.
The youngest is dangerously ill and the
afflicted mother was called from her little
ones sick bed to keep watch over her hus-
band at the hospital.
