GUN AND GAME,
ASsemblyman Bassford ongratulated-Why
Game Is Scarce Near the City.

ASsemblyman BassfoTd ngratulated-Wh
Game Is Scarce Near the City.
With the exception of those sportsmen
who are the lessees of many thousands of
acres of marsh lands in Alameda, Sonoma
and Solano counties the great body of
sportsmen were delighted when the news
arrived from Sacramento that the Assem-
bly, had passed the bill throwing open
marsh lands to all sportsmen.
The bill was passed by vote of 81 ayes
to noes, which has proved very conclu-
sively that this matter of the rich man
squatting bodily down upon his less for
tunate brother sportsman will not be toll
Grated in this cosmopolitan country.
OF course the Senators will have to give
the subject their attention, but it can be
safely said that they will concur with the
gentlemen of the Assembly, who did not
have to hesitate a moment to see into the
good and bad sides of the measure
A majority of the sportsmen who are in
terested in duck-shooting preserves are
representatives of the Country or Tamal-
pals sportsmen's clubs, whose property
under lease stretches from Sausalito as far
back as the ocean on the north side of the
Howard and McShafter estates-a dis
lance of fifty miles. One would naturally
suppose that the 200 sportsmen who shoot
over this great stretch of deer, quail, snipe
and duck country would have all the sport
they could wish for without trespassine
upon the corns of the poor man who, as a
rule, has but one day Of the week to enjoy
himself with his dog and gun on
the marshes within easy reach of this city.
AS Assemblyman Bassford properly re-
marked, ut is a queer law which will pro-
tect ducks that ruin the farmers crops at
night and punish sportsmen who attempt
to shoot them in the daylight on preserved
lands"
Wild ducks, with the exception of
the mallard, teal and wood duck, are mi
gratory and breed in the far north. The
cry of the alleged salt marsh duck-pre
server, that game is annually becoming
scarce because there are not a sufficient
number of preserves, is the worst kind of
bosh. Why aquatic game is not as plenti-
full now as it was some years ago can be
easily accounted for Ten years ago the
southern countrywas comparatively cattle
range, or, in other words cattle-raising was
the principal industry. In recent years
the lands over which large herds roamed
have been transformed from wild and
desolate prairies into fields of grain and
fruit. Irrigation brought about the change,
and the thousands of canals that are now
feeding great and prosperous country

ROD AND CREEL.
A Deputy Fish Commissioner Bgged for
Doing His Duty.

Dong DIS D0Jyt
Charles Cate was the only really success
full angler who landed large fish at Point
Reyes last Sunday. Cate caught five at
place known as the Sand Spit, and before
he had finished the killing he succeeded
with the assistance of Al Hall in breaking
two rods, which proves conclusively that
something besides brute strength is neces-
sary in playing large fish to a successful
ending.
Several small fish were caught at EN-
barcadero on the Sonoma Creek
Now that the rivers and streams are very
low poaching above tidewater fourishes,
and the aGemnaissionefs would come in for
good deal of praise if they placed depu-
ties on Jne nearby coast streams until the
opening of the angling season.
1t is understood that a deputy left yes
terday for Glen Ellen and that an officer
will patrol the banks of the Paper-mill
and Lagunitas creeks from now until the
LIST OF April.
A Deputy Fish Commissioner recently
appointed by Mr.. Emeric was instructed
to visit the streams near Napa and arrest
anybody found catching trout in fresh
water. The deputy succeeded in bagging
one transgressor of the law, who was fined
So for having trout in his possession. The
uepuIS WAS returning well pleased with
having accomplished some good at least
but was met at the depot by several friends
of the convicted law breaker, who made
life miserable for him until such time as
he sought refuge in a railroad car.
The clothes of the officer were painted a
thick brown color, the result of his having
stopped the flight of several hundred eggs
which were thrown at him while he was
waiting for the train. Although there
were some of the constabes of the town
present when the firing of soft eggs was
going on no arrests were made. The dep
uty had done his duty and it does not
speak well for the constabes who per-
mltted the disgraceful assault to continue
without either causing the arrest of the
egg-throwers or ordering them to desist.
Some of the friends of Captain J. M.
Morrison of Sacramento are using their in
tiuence to have him appointed Fish Com
missioner Governor Budd has already
selected Harry Emeric, a sportsman and
angler, who is strong supporter of salt
marsh preserves, and as Captain Morrison
will share with Mr.. Emeric in his opinions
on this score it would hardly prove salts
factory to the general body of sportsmen
and anglers unless the Fish Commission
was evenly divided ON the question of pro-
viding sport for the rich and poor alike.
Anglers who appreciate literature on
their sport should read William G. Harris
monthly magazine, the American Angler
Part contains beautiful illustrations of
various kinds of cat fishes, the kingfish
and Eastern pickerel.

JUDGE LOW DISSATISFIED.
He Says His Courtroom Is Not Habit
able.

aDtSs
Police Judge Low appeared before the
Board of City Hall Commissioners yester-
day and declared that unless he was given
different quarters than those his court now
occupies he intended to adjourn his court
until some provision was made for him.
He stated that the rooms in which he sits
are unfit for human habitation, being close,
dirty and infested by vermin.
The board agreed to look around and see
whether they could not find him proper
location within the next few days.
f. Marion Wells, the sculptor who has
in charge the statue which is to surmount
the dome at the new City Hall, was pres
ent at the meeting and stated that on in
quiry he had found that the figure could
be cast in bronze for So, 800 instead of
$14 GOO, as he had previously stated. The
board took no action in the matter.
Progress estimates aggregating $31 ,4S4
for work now being done on the hall were
finally allowed Of this sum $27,750 goes
to contractors who are building the dome.
Architect Shea had sample of white
metal for the inspection of the members,
but the Mayor, who presided, was not sat-
isfed with one sample, and asked Mr.. Shea
to bring specimens of all varieties to the
next meeting,

Latest News of Interest to Horsemen Wheel

men and Athletes.
Los ANGELES, March 8.-The short race
meet which will be held at Agricultural
Park during Fiesta week is attracting
much attention among horsemen. The
meet will be a running event, and many of
the best horses in the State are entered.
The principal race listed is the Newton
handicap, for purse of $1,000. There has
been some talk of attempting to get up
race between Silkwood, the Orange County
PAGER, and one of the Eastern flyers, but
this project has been abandoned. Silk
wood is enjoying life at Santa Ana on
Farmer Willis ranch, and his owner is
dlslnclined to talk about q match unless
the stakes are big. The old farmer declined
offers of a liberal order from several turf
men to take his big black PAGER around the
circuit this year, and utterly refuses to
allow any one else to handle his pet. 1t is
an oft-repeated opinion among expert
enced racing men that if Silkwood was
given thorough course of training under
younger hands he would prove a surprise.
His record is now close to the seven-minute
mark, and he has never been closely
pressed to better it. Every year the Orange
County people come up to the regular
meet with their pockets full of rocks to
DdCk Jle DlaCK PAGER, ana tney generally
go home with increased capital and
higher admiration for Willis great
horse.
George Green of the Olympic Club has
been in the city several days for the pur-
pose, it is supposed, of arranging for
go between himself and Billy Gallagher,
the boxing instructor of the Los Angeles
Athletic Club. Since the Fraser match
was declared off the Athletic Club boys
have been busy trying to fix up another
event to take its place, and the outcome is
expected to be "a ''set-to" between Gallagher
and Green. Green visits the clubrooms
daily, and has had several conferences with
Gallagher and the officers.
Wheeling as a sport and pastime has re-
ceived wonderful impetus in Southern
California during the past year. Three
years ago the number of cycles ridden in
this city were numbered in the hundreds,
while now there are at least 1000 used for
business and pleasure. There are thirty
eight agencies that do a paying business,
and a new one springs up nearly every
week. The Police Department has made
arrangements for q squad of officers
mounted on wheels in addition to the reg
ular horse detachment, and trial has
proved that the men so equipped can do
good service

Little Bob, winner of the first race, is
owned by Bob Davenport, and was ridden
by Bob Isom. Davenport was good Win
ner by his victory, at very comfortable odds.
Frank Dale thought Duke Stevens the

Abe Levy made hard dump on Terrier.
The bookies grew tired taking his money.
Nagiee Burke had a swell bet down on
Bellicoso.

Alfonso's win, but dropped $1,000 by the de-
feat of Bellicoso. Riley ended up the day
badly by plugging Morrow, who finished
fourth.
George E. Smith (Pittsburg PhiD had
seen Ducat run before and put a good
sized bet down on the Corrigan crack.

Coming.

Frank G. Ives, the Napoleon" of bill
iards, arrived in town yesterday He has
been giving exhibitions with Schaefer
through Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, Colo
RADIO, ETC., to large and enthusiastic audi
ences. At Salt Lake City he was COM
PEELED to quit on account of i'll
health, and William W. Cation of Rock
Island, H., will take his place and fill en-
gagements already made in Montana,
Washington and Oregon. In the mean
time Ives will remain quietly in San Fran
cisco and recuperate his health and by the
time Schaefer arrives, about March Is, he
will be in shape to give good account of
himself.
Ives reports that the attendance at all
the exhibitions has been good and that
there is apparently great revival of in
terest in billiards.
William II. Cation, who will arrive with
Schaefer, has never been on the coast.
There is some talk of match between
him and Saylor.
With Ives, Schaefer, Cation and Saylor

Amateurs Who Are Preparing for the Summer

The latest additions to the already long
list of entries for the coast championship
races on May 80, under the auspices of the
South End Rowing Club, are the st. Mary's
College and the Vallejo Club. The ath-
letes from the college take their initial
spin from the boathouse of the South Ends
on this afternoon. There are ten can
didates for positions on the senior four.
and they are all athletes who have hereto
fore distinguished themselves on the grid
iron or diamond, and it will be hard to
select the four to represent the college in
the big event.
Mr.. Macarthur of the Olympic Club
promises to bring out a crew that will as
tonish the old oarsmen. 1t is rumored
that Mr. Macarthur, who is an adept at the
oars as well as one of the best all-round
athletes the Olympic Club can boast of.
will himself row in the Olympics' senior
crew.
Mr.. Cliff Mcclellan, captain of the Acme
Club of Oakland, only wishes that there
were a few more events. 1t seems that the
club is full of oarsmen, who are anxious to
cover themselves with glory and win lau-
rels for their club.
The crews from Vallejo and Stockton
promise to be exceptionally strong ones,
and will have the advantage of having
their methods of rowing and training kept
secret from their opponents in San
Francisco and Oakland.
The following letter from the secretary
of the Pioneer Rowing Club is self
explanatory and proves that the Pioneers
are certainly in the swim for place this
year:
The Pioneers are now showing more activity
in rowing than ever, and everything tends to a
good season for aquatic sports. Our member
ship is increasing rapidly, and we have at pres
ent larger number OF active members than
we have had for six years. There are two
crews now in active training, viz, heavy

MADE THEIR ANNUAL DEMAND.
Messrs. Siebe and Block Want Pay for
Extra Deputies.

Assessor Siebe and Tax Collector Block
made the annual demand on the Super
visors for funds to pay the extra deputies
yesterday. Both sent in communications
to the Finance and Judiciary committees,
stating that the appropriations made were
not sufficient to carry on their respective
offices.
Assessor Siebe asked for $4,000 extra over
and above the $45, 600 appropriated, stating
that for the past sixteen years the Office
had been allowed $4,000 per year for the
purpose mentioned, and that as the BUSH
ness of his department was constantly IN
creasing he could not possibly get along
with less.
The Tax Collector asked for $500 addi-
tional to the 49,, 500 allowed by the appro-
priation, stating that such a sum was abb
solutely necessary, as his funds for extra
deputies would run out with the present
month, and that unless his request was
acceded to he would not be able to finish
the work of the fiscal year ending June 80
next.
Both communications were referred to
the board as a whole.
The principal of the Potrero primary
school was present to ask that the school
house be Immediately repaired, as it was
in bad condition inside and out. He rep
resented that the roof was in such poor
condition that the shingles were falling off
in spots. The committee recommended
that the house be placed in thorough repair
at an expense of from $500 to $4,000.
