Adventures Of TWO Local Anglers on
CalaVeras Creek.

Notwithstanding that the streams within
a few hours railroad travel of this City are
now in tip-.op condition for fly-fshing, re-
ports from favorite resorts during the week
have been few.
James Reynolds and friend whipped
three miles of the Lagunitas last Tuesday
and had fairly good success. Mr.. Rey-
nolds states that the stream still continues
very high, and that small fish are toler-
ably plentiful.
The Paper-mill is wonderfully prolific
stream, and from the continuous whipping
it receives one must naturally feel sur
prised that there are any fish remaining at
this season of the year.
But the Paper-mili regardless of the
whipping it gets from the opening to the
ending OF the angling months, is the best
local bit OF fishing water within a radius
of 100 miles of this City.
The Sonoma Creek is doomed. A hog
ranch, which was opened this year on a
tributary near Glen Ellen, will be the
means of keeping the stream in muddy
condition during the season for angling.
When the water is discolored there can be
but little hope for those who cast flies
principally.
Some years ago the Sonoma was the star
hshing stream of the near counties to this
City, but 1t IS extremely doubtful il trout
fishing in this creek will ever amount to
anything so long as the present condition
OF affairs continue.
Latest reports from the Pieta and other
streams near Cloverdale state that the few
recent days of warm weather have vastly
improved the sport OF anglers and that
fly fishing is now excellent.
James w att and j. A. Pariser, two ven-
cradle anglers of the old school, enioyed
tirst-class sport last Saturday on the CAL
averas Creek.
The disciples of the gentle art were met
by w. Bains OF Milpitas and conveyed to
his ranch by a spanking team. After en-
Toying hearty supper, magnificent
nights snoring and dreams of big, silvery
fishes, all of which feasts were settled
down by bounteous breakfast, consisting
of streaming hot coffee, hot biscuits and
four dozen fresh eggs, the anglers quickly
posed their long-distance eyeglasses over
their nasal appendages and started off at
daybreak for the haunts of the game
steelhead.
They returned with ''well-tilled' baskets
and clothes that had been in soak several
times during the day. Mr.. Pariser got
one good ducking while wildly endeayor-
ing to save two-pound trout, which
finally got away just as the angler was
about to place hands upon it. Mr. Watt
tried little tobogganing on the trunk of
a tree that had seen better days, and.
thanks to his fishing basket, which fortu-
nately slipped its moorirgs in the nick of
time and drifting around to the angler
breastworks it saved him from q knock

THE RIFLE.
A Big Fifty-Shot Match to Be Held
at She'll Mound To-Morrow.


There will be an interesting ffty-shot
rife match, open to all corners, tomorrow
at the Shell Mound range, and such marks
men as GIindemann, Strecker, Pape,
Young, Burfeind, Mclaughlin, Schuster
and others have signifed their intention
of participating therein. The match will
be shot on the Columbia target and $5 en-
trance. 1t has been agreed that 81 shall
be paid on each flag, which represents
center shot. The money will be divided
thus: Sixty per cent, after all flags are
paid for, to go to the one making the best
fifty-shot score and 40 per cent to the one
making the best ten-shot score. This will
give ALL poor as well as good shots,
chance at the prizes.
Mr.. Often, one of the directors of the
San Jose Schuetzen section of the Turn
Verein, was recently in this City to invite
the San Francisco marksmen TO attend
the opening shooting festival of the. new
Turner's rifle range; also to learn from
the local shots what date would be the
best for this event. The new San Jose
range will be furnished and fitted with all
OF the modern appliances for targets,
shooting-stands, etc. The range is 200
yards and it is expected that there will be
50-yard pistol range attached. Eight
double targets will be in use. The system
OF marking will be by the usual discs'held
over the shots on the targets, and the
value of the shots will be registered on
wheels in the scorers stand similar to
those used on the Shell Mound and Schut-
zen ranges. These wheels are moved by
endless wires to the numbers desired by
the markers at the targets, and so far no

the movements of Fitzsimmons and Jack
son. California James is ready at mo-

beef and plum pudding. He expects that
his next battle will be with Fitzsimmons
in England.
According to his latest statement he will
follow ''the champion" over the water and
compel the New Zealander to either fight or
crawfish.
1t is safe to say, however, that Corbett
will see his native city and old time
companions before he will place foot on
the streets of London. Choynski is here
and if James and Joseph can agree upon
an eight or ten round contest at the
Pavilion, they can count upon a great
house and a large display of pocket
money even though the contest may be
announced as scientific exhibition be-
tween the stars of the heavyweight
division of fighters.

Some people are fearful that the
silver lunacy may come East and at
tack the sober voters in New Eng
land. There is no doubt that some
people will be deluded by it. A few
years ago the greenback era re got a
start in Maine, and for three or four
years it made an overturn in politics
in that state. The people came to
their senses after a while and the
state fell back into it's old conditions.
1t is an unaccountable fact that many
very good and, ordinarily, intelligent
men will be carried away with some
ism or fallacious notion, that them
selves and everybody else will de-
nounce when it explodes. Prejudices
and fallacies are oftentimes the most
dangerous things to encounter in po-
litical campaigns. If there ever was
time when Verm onters should keep
their heads, it is now while the wild
sweep of delusion is on. When wild
and selfish men are seeking to assail
all that is sound, all that has
stood the test of ages, in the matter
of money, rational men should stand
fast.
