Sportsman Club are now reaping the bene-
fit OF their perseverance and industry IN
the matter of stocking the streams OF
Tulare County with different varlenes of
game fish. All of the streams ana brooks
IN the foothills and mountains are now
we'll stocked with Eastern brook Lake
Tahoe and salmon trout and the rivers OF
the valley are stocked with black bass. the
result of the indefatigable industry OF the
club.
On last SATURDAY. six members of the
club, including ]. Sieb Johnson, the secre-
tarv, and W. T. Clotfelter, the attorney of
the club, went on fishing expedition to
what is known as Pumpkin Hollow ranch,
near where the clubhouse is to be built in
the near future. There they found the
water yet pretty high, owing to the late
withal. Though the wary trout was not
particularly voracious, the party. succeeded
in landing ninety-two as fine a lot as any
one would wish to see.
This section of the country is bound to
be paradise Of sportsmen in few years,
for the club has not confined its attention
to the streams; it is stocking the woods
with choice game, so in few years the
crack of the rife and shotgun will be heard
as well as the click of the reel and the
swish of the anglers fly. The club believes
in the maxim, ''Good sport, good citizens"
Last week a committee of the Visalia
Sportsmen's Club placed in the head
waters of the Kaweah River some thou
sands of trout spawn. In order to do this
they had to cut through the ice. The dis
lance as the crow flies is thirty-two miles
from Visalia. In order to reach there they
passed through a country where peaches
and plums are ripening. next where lemon
and orange trees are in bloom, again
through decidious fruit country and
finally into the snow. All this in Tulare
County, all in one short days travel. Can

Nervous headaches that well-nigh drove
him to distraction first introduced him to
Paine's celery compound. That was five
years ago. and until that time he was one
of the most pronounced opponents of pre-
pared remedies to be found in the city.
Just how Paine's celery compound was
first brought to his attention he does not
remember, but it has done him so much
good that the compound has no more en-
thusiastic champion living. He is as
happy as any one in the enjoyment of
good health could be, and for that happi-
ness he gives full credit to Paine's celery
compound Read what he has to say about
the medicine:
II am always ready to recommend
Paine's celery compound when 1 hear of a
case similar to my own. Some five years
ago I was suffering from headaches which
were sometimes so severe during working
hours of the night that I would clasp my
hands over my head to hold the top on,
the pain being excruciating. These at
tacks would occur sometimes as often as
three times a week. Sleep was out of the
question, the pillow seeming but a block
of wood.

CHESS BY TELEGRAPH.
Games Between Vancouver and San

Favor of tho Local Teams.

The second international chess match
between two teams from the Mechanics
Institute and two teams from the Van
couver Chess Cldb was played last night
by telegraph, the players being in San
Francisco and Vancouver. B. G. Play
began at 6 :33 o'clock.
The team representing the Mechanics
Institute at board l had the first move
and opened with P-K4. Their opponents
in Vancouver adopted the French defense
by replying with P-K3. The local players
had decided advantage after the first
eleven moves. The Vancouvers had 8
hopeless game at IL 40 P. NJ
Board No. 2 was an open game, the
British players having adopted the Scotch
gambit and did not recapture the pawn on
their fourth move, thus getting a quick
development, which, however did not rec
ompense for the loss of the pawn.
The local players had the best game
after VancouEer's seventh move. At II 40
p. NJ. the Britishers had lost game.

MONTREAL, QUEBEC, June 14.-Stanton
Abbott, champion lightweight of England,
and Jack Burke, champion lightweight of
the Southern States, met tonight in the
Crystal Rink for $3.50 side. The agree
ment was that if both men were standing
at the end of the fifteenth round the fight
would be declared draw. Mccoy acted
as referee. The fight was hot one
throughout, and both men were up at the
end of the battle, and the contest was de-
clared a draw. Neither could be said to
have obtained the advantage at any stage.

California Athletes Determined to

CHICAGO, ILL, June 14.-With the ex-
ception of their Pennsylvania games the
Berkeley boys have never dreaded any
meet so much as that with the Chicago
Athletic Association tomorrow. Not that
the boys fear their opponents-they have
too much California pluck for that-but
Dozier and Bradley are crippled, and the
Californians fear that they cannot over
come the handicap occasioned by thus
leaving no entry in the bicycle race and
mile run. Crum is expected to win both
sprints for Chicago. Scoggins has an even
time opponent for second-place honors in
w. c. Skillinger.
Kenneth McCrea, the great Australian.
is pitted against Koch in the half and
quarter. Allowing that he is in form, it is
believed that Koch can defeat him, even if
he makes record breaking time. After
running the half both men start in the
quarter. The Chicago Athletic Associa-
ton banks on Jackson to win here, but
California with Barnes and Koch must
score one-two to make winning total of
points. Chicago will take all the points in
the mile run and the cycle race. Torrey
and Dyer in return must win first and sec
ond in both hurdle races. Crum will start
against them in the low hurdles, but what
will he do? Merwin has lame back, but
still be must win the walk from the old
time champion, Hassell.
Chicago expects both places in the high
Jump with Clark and Hess. Clark is good
for six feet, Hess little less. Woolsey
must best Tarrant in the broad jump, that
probably means twenty-five foot jumping.
Riddle of Chicago will take the shot and
hustle Edgren at the hammer throw.

that she could not perform her household

near Kentucky and Butte streets, Potrero.
The police have lately been making raid

firing the two cars last night was done by
some of the tramp gang as return for
